yes this is an update of my life.
though this is only the first day of year 4, i can already describe what this academic year is going to be like.. uncertain. currently juggling quite a few things with my two bare hands. regular modules, FYP, tuition and some other things that i don't feel comfortable stating on this platform. this feeling of uncertainty will for sure remain for quite some time. nonetheless, i really hope to have the strength and wisdom to pull through them all.
that aside, let's talk about the best show on earth currently.. "Game of Thrones". just watched the latest episode couple of minutes ago and man i just realised there are only two more episodes left in this season. the plot thickens and every episode gets better and better. so excited to know how this season will end in two weeks time and then how this series will end in next year's season.
with GoT coming to an end, it would mean one thing too. the other shows that i usually follow every year will kick off there new seasons really soon, with the bulk of them starting in late September and October. these shows will definitely give school days more purpose.. haha. until next time then, cheers.

strange waters
yes this is an update of my life.
bittersweet end to my internship and here i am resting a couple of days before wandering into the unknown of year 4. heard many stories and experiences from friends when it comes to doing FYP and completing the course of undergrad life. never really wonder how it would be like to really start and complete a FYP.. then it is happening. i am really amused at how time really past by so quickly. on to the final year doing an individual FYP.
many asked me if i ever consider further studies after these four years. maybe Masters or even PhD studies. well, my answer remains the same since the first time i was asked until today. i do not entire shut out those options. however, my primary aim after these four years would be clearing my school fees first and working a couple of years. i would very much to explore what is out there and what not.. hopefully in the course of doing so, chance upon some sponsorship or scholarship to add more motivation to further studies.
i don't jump before i learn to walk. i take on step at a time, only looking few steps ahead. so those are my plans for now. nonetheless, i have a FYP and undergraduate studies to focus on first for now. until next time then, cheers.

time
yes this is an update of my life.
well, here it is, the end of my summer, the end of my internship as well. tomorrow marks the last weekday of summer and of course the last day of my internship.
being a data science intern over the last three months have been really full of ups and downs. i recalled scaling the very steep learning curve at the beginning of the attachment.. so much so i overworked myself and surrendered to fever for a full weekend. nonetheless, i was glad that things worked out and the projects assigned to me were off to a decent start. yeah, halfway through there were countless obstacles.. challenges and learning points, if you may. all in all i am really thankful for this opportunity and having a great supervisor. hopefully, my future supervisors will be at least as friendly as her.
bidding of modules is somewhat done for me. three modules, all of which are statistics modules although i am taking one of them as an UE. insane? maybe but i want to learn as much as i want to boost my CAP. no time to slack too much as well. it is going to be a real busy semester ahead.. probably the busiest though the number of MCs is less than previous semesters.
okay, on to the next thing that is related to the title of this post.
time. something money cannot buy. time is a measurement of many things.. including the value of friendship. time is of essence in friendships. to me, i would gladly reserve time for the friends whom i really care and hold on dear to. however, recently i have begun questioning my take on this.
is time not a good thing to share with your friends? have we live in the age where being busy is a legitimate excuse to bail in the eleventh hour? is being busy a legitimate excuse to go away from a phone for almost a day, leaving your friend hanging and wondering if plans are still on or not?
no. to me, it is simple, no. you don't take more than a minute to answer a simple yes or no question. you don't just forget about your friends the moment you get busy. if they really matter to you, you would be responsible enough to know these. busy is and always be an excuse no matter what. people usually use that reason to avoid people whom i do not want to hang out with. otherwise, they would suggest alternative or become proactive in re-arranging meet-ups. rich or poor, people from all walks of lives are given 24 hours a day to use. never ever complain about not having enough time. mind you, everyone has the same amount of time each day to utilise. if one cannot commit a small part of time on relationships, do not find any excuses to cover the lack of ability to time manage.
so there you have it, i said it all. now i am going back to question myself on whether i have been reserving my time for the right friend. until next time then, cheers.
