My dearest supervisor

Every engineering student will go through a project at the end of their semester. They call it Final Year Project. It is the time when the student will put all their knowledge gathered into use. Because we are just student, we will tend to make errors. Therefore each student are assigned to a supervisor to be look after and guide. I am doing my final year project and this is my second time doing it since the first was during my diploma. Here, I begin to know my degree project supervisor deeper.

I first met him when I am still in diploma. He was my lecturer for i don't remember what subject already for about a month. He is a very nice lecturer. During the final exam, no matter how u much u screwed up, you are still able to pass. Very nice guy right?

My next encounter with him was during my Diploma project Oral presentation. A presentation that reports your progress to the assessor. He was one of the two assessor. The other assessor is famous for mentally killing a student during Q&A (Mr Chan). I remember very clearly; After completing my powerpoint presentation, Mr Chan gave way to my current supervisor to ask questions to clear his doubt. His first question was, "may i know what is your name?" Mr Chan along with me blur there a while. Our facial expression turned from:

:) --> o.O --> O.O

Well, that was my presentation. After that, while the presentation is going on, suddenly he stops and ask, "can we have a break for lunch first??" This time everybody got shock and stunt. hahaha... Everybody's expression is now O.O

That is my first view on my supervisor. When i have him now as my supervisor, it gets more fun. He always gave me suggestions that were so great till i have to crack my head into pieces to get it done. He also gave me lots of freedom in doing my project which means, i don't really need to report to him every week about my progress. Good supervisor (I likey). And the best thing is, when i sent an email to him on Monday, he will reply that mail on Friday. Sometimes i need to send twice to get a reply back from him.

This is my supervisor.

Its been a long time not updating my blog since the end of my internship. Been through a lot of things and looks like this semester and year is really a tough year ahead. The journey is extremely rocky. My "suspension" has been receiving lots of pressure from it.

Today, just to chill out, I went for a hike in BJ hill. The last time i went hiking was like 2 years ago? or perhaps 3?

Nevertheless, i didn't realize they already have another route up the hill. I took that new route. Of cos with some ppl around just in case i did not find my way. *I did got stuck a while on the way up.

Climbing 1/2 the hill is seriously damn tiring. In fact, before reaching 1/2 the hill, i did stop a few times. This shows how much stamina I had lost. Don't forget, i did mention earlier that, i follow some people up the with the new track. They are an uncle and aunty. Aged 64 and 60. My goodness, they can walk at a constant speed non stop. It is a disgrace to me as a young fella.

That's the point where my head starts to think, should i give up and walk down? or should i torture myself and climb further and just accept the pain. And suddenly my head thought of this "What the hell, the uncle and aunty oso can climb, i so pahliah cannot climb?? Ini apa 2nd dan" Therefore, decision made, continue to climb.. with many stops in between. hahaha

At last reach the top. Feel satisfied but the body was completely drop out. The leg muscle was shaking when i am standing. *damn weak* but the mind was fresh with the joy of accomplishment. Was also greeted by the uncle and aunty, "eh, reach d ah".

Enlighten for the day. This journey is suffering, but the sense of joy upon completing the journey is a bliss. I may be slow but i get to feel the bliss. Best with my own determination and hard work.
