Eternal Discovery

Hey I had been lost, again, for another 2 weeks lol.
First of all, good news! Tomorrow I will attend Majlis Anugerah Pelajar Cemerlang STPM 2016 Peringkat Pulau Pinang.
Sounds familiar right? Well that have to date back to around June 2015.
By that time, it was an honour for me to be an excellent candidates for SPM 2014. Same as this time, I strove for the best again and being honoured for the second time!
Hmm... Quite curious about how much would I get.

As half of April just gone, realizing that time is going too fast.
A week of works could be done in just a blnk of an eye.
I can't deny that when starting a new week, I always hope that Friday would come faster.
As always, it always did, as long as you get your required works done. And then the same thing repeat, again and again, until where the prelude of the new chapter begins...
By that time, I had went through most of time in discovering myself again and learnt more and more skills for development.

Sometimes, I won't get used to apply my knowledge in making decisions, especially the long term issues, that made a lot of doubts for me.
Precisely, I'm quite confirmed that I'm interested in studying electric and electronic engineering, but regulations forced me to think of another path.
I couldn't discover a lot in a short time. One year? Two years? Might not be enough. I might just as different as the others, they really know what are they doing and how to do, but I think I am still looking opportunities, or the right moment to do.
The gap period is where everything may change, or even a mighty twist for moments. Talking about that, degeneration of the mightiest is where the unexpected sore.
The curse happened on me, but I never want to be the mightiest, aren't I?

If I could be as normal as I can, I would rather keep continuing discover the truest me, even though I found myself back in Form 6, but there's no ending yet.
By the way, I'm still keeping the pace, I know what are the advantages I have, and I know no matter who wants to take over, that's their moment but not mine, who wouldn't know anything would change after some times?
Back to normal is not really as easy as I thought, but the discovery is continuing. I have my own thoughts, but following the conscience, restoring the thoughts is the key.
The discovery would be an eternal journey, I never want to fall down again, and hope that a simple, normal life would be right in time.

Choices

#508
2nd April

Quite a relief that 1st April, or you meant April Fool wasn't my day at all, probably it's Saturday and that's why I made it through "peacefully".
Speaking of which, I had worked as a daycare/tuition teacher for three months, considered one-third before the completion.
Counting the period of service, I had worked there for 4 months and 3 weeks two years ago, and now, if I worked for 7 months and a week, that makes one year.

Honestly, when coming down to different choices, you might not able to take a quick decisions on how them. And not long ago, I faced it unexpectedly.
Yup applying for the local universities through UPU system is quite challenging especially the part of the selection of courses and universities.
As I wished to study courses related to electric and electronic, so needless to say that it is my first choice, and the first university I chose for is Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) in Johor.
You might ask: Comparing other well-known universities like UM, USM, UPM and UKM, why UTM?
Judging from the distance factor, I would actually choose USM as my first choice since it is the nearest university from my hometown, Penang.
However, my teacher introduced us (all Form Six students) about how advanced is UTM now and it can compare with USM and UM.
Basically, I read through their official websites and unexpectedly shocked by the status of UTM now, they made the website much like in an international way, and the quality was not that bad too.
Refer to their rankings and achievements, even it is still behind UM, nonetheless, as I said, everything is still improving, so in future the data might change, maybe.
Anyway, I made USM as my second choice university and only the sixth choice goes to UM.
The reason why I didn't make UM as first choice is because they don't have electronic courses, and another thing is despite it is well-known, I'm still prefer a younger university loll, what a weird thought.
Well, about 3 days more the system will be closed, I had made my choices and checked properly, hope can get first choice as I wanted.

Alright, as you all know, going into April might be a bit messed up. I don't know why, whenever comse to April, I felt uncomfortable.
My own fact, the reason why I felt in this way is probably there's NO HOLIDAY at all...
Well even though after entering university, November and December are no longer holiday months for me, but April is the only month that made me felt like "Haizz..."
Anyway, I still have to wait until September. Right now, focus on working, and don't get stressed out quickly loll.
