At crossroads again. Soon enough, I'll have to sit down and ponder about my future. Which path should I take? I wonder..
When I have the time, I'll think about it. Soon, because it takes time to carve out a plan. Now let's talk about the present! ^^
Went to UTC to renew my IC today. Finally! Luckily, I was not imposed a penalty for renewing it past the 21 years age. Keke. I suggested to my mom if we should buy any vegetables at the main market next to it? My mom said find Petai. Told her OK, let's find petai. Hard to find it eh so no chance to eat it since for a while. Went to the Ipoh main market after that. It has been so long since I last saw a living chicken. Hahax. Looked at vegetables and bought them with my mom. Something different from my usual daily routine. Had lunch at old town area afterwards while waiting to pick up my IC at 3pm. It was a well spent day with my mom. :)
VIVA was over yesterday. VIVA = Final year project presentation. Don't ask me why its called VIVA because I also don't know why. hahaha. Felt half a burden lifted after the presentation was done. It wasn't my best presentation which was well, a lil' regretful. Not sure why, I was nervous. Maybe it was the fact that its my first time memorizing my script for a presentation. I dislike memorizing scripts for presentations! But since it was a review of journals, I had to memorize the contents le. Thankful anyways. Hehee. Snapped many pictures with my five group mates after presentation was over. We were having a casual photoshoot around the university campus. We did not miss the 'hot spot' for VIVA photosnaps. Its like a tradition to snap photos outside the library after VIVA among final year students. Its such a cliche typical university student thing so yes, we did that cliche typical student thing. -.-
My bad. When I was the onlooker or passerby, I used to think oh, VIVA students again yah. When we were the one taking pictures yesterday, onlookers and passers by must have thought the same. Its altogether a different feeling when we're in that situation itself looking from different sides. Plus, those late nights that we stayed up together, the sacrificed hours in front of the computer, frequent meetings, and the countless sleepless nights while your amount of sleep debt increases over the months, I could not have felt more contented at the end of VIVA. As I was walking back in a slightly slower pace than my friends were towards the car, I could have a view of my friends walking at a distance slightly further ahead of me. At that moment, a passing thought struck me, it was our last semester together and they were the bunch of friends I've spent most of my last 3 years with. Its hard to imagine what's it like without them.
Well, the next part comes the turnitin process, paper work and final compilation before the hardbound copy of FYP is submitted in roughly 3 weeks time. Hope everything goes well. Yahoodeeho! :D
Slowly and surely, I see some of my bucket list or you could say, mini dreams being fulfilled. It wasn't really all planned. Things just fell into place that led me towards a choice or decision that made me fulfill those list of things I aimed for or wanted to do, one by one. It brings a sense of joy and deep comfort to achieve some of this few things.
Soon, I'll get to fly overseas. Even if its not far off, I'm glad to be able to travel across the seas for a holiday with my uni friends. :) I guess its important to dream and have goals. Unlike those mind-blowing dreams that quotations tells us to strive for, I have rather many little ones. Some dreams are still left at hand. Can't wait for them to eventually come true. One day I'll catch those dreams for suree!! :)
Over the course of the few weeks since I left my blog unattended, things were pretty rough for some reason. It was painful to watch and experience firsthand the kind of emotional distress that an incident can have on someone you love. I flew back first before the rest of my family members after CNY since I had to resume classes. The flight home from Kuching on my own while eating the pre-booked nasi lemak brought back so much memories of my childhood. I was sniffing and holding back my tears while eating. Silly girl; silly girl. Just pray that my family will be kept safe and sound, healthy and happy always. :)
When I think about working life, I am uncertain if there's one job I could stick to forever. Why, being a grown up is certainly challenging. The kind of future commitments that one is tied down to - the life itself. I don't think its the job alone. Probably it's everything that comes along with being cast into the working world. For this reason, I hope that I'll figure it out. It has been my ideal choice to study and work part time. Then again, I guess it'll have to be the other way round. At the same time, I wanna be back home to be with my parents. Yet, I know the best opportunities are not back in our beloved hometown, Ipoh.
Never mind, I'll just continue with my assignments first and figure about this again next time. 2moro, gonna eat outside with dad and mom. Yaays!
Til then, take care everyone!
