Of Random Things and Events

I was under constant pressure from some friends of mine, Hanip with the support of Jamil, when they insisted that I post an update entry on anything. And so I shall start with one thing;

Luck.

These past few days had been nothing but stressful...or eventful as ppl like to call it. I was extremely bz. And like any other bz person, I rushed things up to make sure I meet all those datelines. Last week especially, had been really demanding.

It is a common thought that when you rush things up, you tend to become reckless and eventually you make mistakes.

But that was not the case for me for the past few weeks.

First of, my Experimental work was surprisingly shortlisted to be in some design competition kt UTP nih. Gilo! That had kept me wondering all night how it was made possible. Seriously, regardless of what people think, I really feel I don't deserve to be nominated in the first place looking at how 'malas' I was to even tabulate the exp results. Nk siapkn poster, lg laa malas! I was definitely kelam kabut gle that week... plus with two tests, assignments and all...I was totaly in a mess.

To make things more bizarre, despite all these last minute works, my project was awarded gold. Haha..

If that was not 'Lucky', I don't know what was.

I don't know if it's 'bahasa-ly' correct, but I like to describe the whole thing mcm "Sudah jatuh ditimpa tangga"...but in a good way hehe.

By the way, judging merely from the effort that all FYP students had put into their projects, I really think the effort alone should be enough for all of us to be justified with some gold medals...X perlu la nk masuk2 pertandingan2 nih...Satu taun kot deal dgn project2 ni smer...

Whatever it is, just wanna thank Chai & SV terbaeekkk for they were the one who assisted me during the whole challenging course (Chai and I apparently share the same exp setup) and of course tq to everyone yg terlibat secara langsung atau tidak (ayat stended)

Moving on to another story, what started as a mockery between me and my roomate, had turned into a very tragic or rather cynical episode for me.

My roomie and I used to make fun and look down on this one company for having its employees leaving the place after the first few years of their employment. Thanks to the nature of work at this company that literally keeps them stressed from head to toe. (Utk dak meki, imagine you've got so many small arrows pointing inward and outward all over ur body all day long. That's how painful it is. Mcm arrow yg Pasricha ajar tu..kecik2 tp bnyk gilos.)

Then this week, with no proper preparation (despite how prepared I appeared to be to some ppl, trust me I was not!), I went for a job interview of that company just as a gesture of mockery. Say whatever you want but that was my initial intention of that whole interview. But as the interview progressed, I started to think I could have a future with this company... hmmm. Ironis gilos!

Again, with the help of Luck (I know, it was the help from God Al-Mighty all along), I managed to get through one stage after another...So I have a mixed feeling at the moment...Aku kompiusss!! Mcm incident ni backfire aku blk...aih...

It's funny how ironic life can be sometimes. I'm sure there were a lot of candidates at that time who had worked really hard and waited forever for this job interview but failed at one point. Unlike these people, a person like me who knew nothing about the company then, is just too lucky to be true huhuhu...Life is unfair huh?

You may call it rezeki, or maybe some might think "this has got to be some Istidraj of some sort" (<-- Hopefully not!! bala2) But I would rather call it luck. Dlm bahasa pasarnye, "Nasib je!!"

Ape-ape pun, sape2 yg dpt go through to the next round, congrats and gudluck to those yg bru nk g interview. All the best!!

I know we all had heard this shit countless of time before, but I need to stress this: Just be yourself. Sure, you have to impress other ppl during a job interview but don't do it to the extent that you have to make up something about you that isn't true...the people who's gonna interview us is not just some dumb people who we can play around with..and it's just not cool utk mereka-reka cerita palsu psl diri sendiri..

To sum it all up, klw rezeki kte tade kt satu tmpt ni, mungkin ade kt tmpt lain. Setiap org dilahirkan kt muke bumi ni dah ade peruntukan rezeki masing masing...that is selagi kte percaye Qada Qadar.

p/s: Harap Hanip and Jamil puas dgn post nih...Muahaha!! (Bdk2 nih dh bkak blog jugak...xde keja agaknye dak2 UTP nih hahaha!!)
