Hey guys!
It has probably been like 2 years since my last post? WOW THAT WAS SO LONG AND BOY HAVE YOU GUYS MISSED OUT A LOT ON MY LIFE.
First of all, I'm already in college now. To be precise, I'm currently in KDU University College, Penang doing my Diploma in Electrical and Electronics Engineering for 2.5 years and am already halfway through this. Wow that was fast.
Well, let's start with year 2014. I don't remember if I have mentioned about me wanting to go on a student exchange program by AFS Malaysia before but I have always wanted to go to the USA on the Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study (KL-YES) scholarship for a semester. I have been through the interview for the state level and was chosen to go to the national levels interview but was only on the reserved list. I got super duper upset but decided to let it go anyways as I can't do anything :(. Year 2014 had been an amazing year. It was my last year of school. Everything was the last. My last cross-country, my last sports day, my last choir practice, etc. Oh and did I mention? I was the pianist for my school's choir team. It was certainly an honor being able to perform for the Princess of Kedah. Everything had been lovely.
I also applied to Nanyang Polytechnic, Singapore with the hopes that I could get a full scholarship and actually go there to study. But with some difficulties in the way, I didn't get to go after the release of my SPM results.
After my SPM exams, I started working on December 2014, at a spectacles retail shop at a shopping mall nearby. I had a great time working there, making new friends and gaining new knowledge. I have learnt so much there I would not give it up for anything in this world. It has been such an invaluable experience being able to spend some time earning some money and being able to see the out side world. I worked there till May 2015 where I had to stop as I will continue my studies to where I am now.
I got into college on May 2015. I've met so many new friends and joined the Student Council of the college to enlarge my circle of friends and also get amazing experiences that I never thought I would get. I have been given the opportunity to join the team in organizing events and meet countless of amazing people. I have moved out from the college's hostel after staying there for about half a year. I'm now moved in with one of my first friends that I have met in college. Everything has been great up till now. I have had a part time job that I started in August until December. I decided for a change of environment and all that so I handed in my resignation letter with a heavy heart and decided to go for the better. So now, I work as a part time waitress at a restaurant just across the street from my hostel. Sometimes it does get a little too busy and I tend to miss my previous part time job but all is well.
I am hoping to be able to go to Singapore for my internship next year. If all else fails, I will do my internship locally. However, nothing will ever stop me as I am aiming to go to Singapore to further my degree there. By all means I have to get my degrees overseas.
It has been so long since I last finished reading a good book. Each time I start, I never seem to end. I just dump it to the side. I want to find my love for reading again. I just don't know how. It has also been so long since I have written essays as I am not required to write essays for now xD. But I have felt like my grasp towards my english has already loosen. Last time I used to write so much of essays with such bombastic words and I speak english almost everyday. However, now, it is all different. I speak so much of mandarin that I can feel my english language deteriorating. Which is bad. I need help.
Last December, I had the opportunity to be a part of the organizing committee of the KDU 3rd International Student Conference which was held in my college. It had been a great opportunity for me to meet students from all over Malaysia and also students from overseas. I took so many pictures and I don't know how to share it here!
I got so many things that I wanna upload here but there is just too much! I will TRY to keep updating stuff here so I can keep track of all this and read all these back one day when I am old and will be laughing at all the amazing memories that I made.
For now, enjoy these photos that I have taken, regardless of food or selfies i feel like a model, chewah. Thank you so much for reading. Sending you virtual hugs and kisses!
