Short while

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


In about 7 hours or so I'll be on my way to Langkawi so i decided why not i take a short time to write something before I'm off.

Well, this going to be my second time in Langkawi Island, The first time was during LIMA2011. Despite having the luxury time of about a month in this beautiful island, the jewellery of Kedah, sadly i still didn't have much time to enjoy the places. Oh and yeah, this time it's holiday time. It's a prize for our hardwork for getting second runner up in Robocon 2011 competition that was held in Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia, Nilai, early July last year. Well, more like we use half of the money prize. hehe

So for this time around i really wanted to go to the cable car. Like seriously. Last time me, Haswan and ajieb went there but sadly it was already 7 p.m. and the good scenery was all gone and it will be a waste to get up at that time. But we still have picture :p

Underwater world. I can't remember the last time I went to see a big Aquarium. Maybe in my early days but i can't seem to remember any of it.

Kuah Town. Well, I've been there several time before but that was for only a casual walk. a timed casual walk. Didn't have the luxury to walk around, taking our time, enjoying the view, the town, the people. Ah.


And that's about it. I'll be leaving first thing tomorrow morning. Unlike before, we only have enough budget to get on ferry(instead of the Airplane ;p) Just hope that i woke up early so i won't miss the bus eyy??

Holiday which about to ends.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


As of today, I have less than a month before going back to Universities, continuing my studies as a 2nd year 2nd semester student. We have been having our lengthy 4 month break since last year October and it's about to end real soon.

Im not sure how your holiday goes but i tell you, mine is superb!

The Revival

I use to own a bicycle, a mountain bike, like any other kids during school day. It's the best type of transportation any kids can afford to, and legal! But ever since finishing school, the old bike of mine was sent to the hall of trash where, all the bicycle reside.

But because i'm short of money and i'm going to start working at Petrosains soon, i've decided to revive my old dusty, sticky, broken bicycle.


The broken bicycle, stripping the old paint off.


It was hard work i tell you, stripping the paint off, taking off the part, spraying the body frame, waiting it to dry, spending money of buying stuff. Hard work! But all of that pays off as i have a new bike to get me to my workplace.


Now it doesn't look like this. Some of the paint wear off ;(


This is the transport that helps me to get from Subang Jaya all the way to KLCC Taman Bahagia LRT Station. You can read the travel log post here ;p


Volunteering @ Petrosains

1 and a quarter month i've worked in Petrosains. Frankly, it's the most joyous and easy going job i've ever had. You just have to get to work by 9a.m. and get back at 6p.m. and trust me, the time goes by like nothing if you are in the centre. So many people to entertain, so many activities, you won't even notice it's the end of the day. But my time wasn't long there since Petrosains do have a lot, i mean a LOT of Volunteer, so getting a working day in a week is quite troublesome. Sometimes, I only work once in a week. That ain't a job XD And luckily i've got a chance for something else.

Temp Staff/ Volunteer @ HWLIMA for LIMA'11

At first i'm just an ordinary volunteer until one day Haswan(PIC for volunteer programme) called and after some yada yada moment later, he offer me for a position as a temp staff since they really need some extra manpower. And when i went to the office, hell, they do really need some serious manpower. Imagine, the team that organizing an International event like LIMA only need less than 10 staff. It was crazy i tell you the job. But we managed to pull it off, and this LIMA has proven to be a success, we even gained profit unlike LIMA'07.

With them Volunteers

It was a wonderful experience, both bitter and sweet. But what most important is that it thought me how to deal with life, with 'different' kind of people, how to rescue yourself, how to manage, how to work professionally. I can't thank enough to them.


Current

Suprisingly, im at UTP now. Teheee. Despite having still 3 weeks left of holiday, I decided it is time to get back, doing what i suppose to do during the semester break, preparing for 2012 Robocon Competition. ;p And now we are left with tonnes of pending work to do for the competition. But still, you will find me at Langkawi Island again at 17th till 19th January for a vacation with the Robocon member, celebrating our last year victories on getting 2nd runner up in the National competition.


All said, how was YOUR holidays?

Langkawi International Marintime Aerospace '11

From LIMA 2011




Assalamualaikum and Good evening Ya'll.


I think it has been a month or so since i've last wrote something meaningful here.

For the past one month, i have been very much occupied by works for HWLIMA, organizing the biggest Aerospace exhibition in Malaysia, The Langkawi International Marintime & Aerospace Exhibition 2011, or in short, LIMA 2011.

Frankly, i can't described everything that i've experience during the total duration of 1 month working for a big event in one blog post. I mean seriously. I need like 2 or 3 blog post for all the story. But by the time i've done with this post, my eagerness to blog will suddenly fade away. Just like it used too.

So without further ado, LIMA2011 photo presentation.

Working.

Sleeping at 5 and waking up 2 hours later? Done. One day without a sleep with a lot of work still needed to be completed? Done. Handling the timetable for all 98 of the delegates? Done! Making timetable the night before it should be handed over to the officers? Done!

overtime!

Syahmi with PASKAU Officials


What i can say about working in the organization is damn tiring! You'll be needing a cup of coffee each morning and in the evening, plenty of plain water. Like plenty okay?

People

God know how many kind of people i've met during this time, some are annoying, some are good, some are very bad, some are not responsible, some were cooperative and some just don't. But at the end of the day, despite having to know different individuals, you'll be thankful to be who you are. Who you became, and now you can be more wise in determining how you wanted to be in the future. Haha





Volunteer

Now i bet all the volunteer must be waiting to read this. First of all, thank you, thank you so much for making this LIMA a bit more meaningful for me, the day i sent you guys off is the saddest day during LIMA 2011. Honestly. Tak tipu. Despite you guys keep on haunting me for questions which even i can't answer, but i did try my best to answer it for you guys. Seriously, all of the question you guys ask, i didn't even ask Ms. Azlin for advice, i give my answer based on what i know, but if i know someone who know better, of course i'm gonna direct you guys to them. So if my answers wasn't good enough for you guys to answer to the officials, im sorry with all my heart.

Especially to the LO peeps, thank you, especially those who stay up with me until 5 in the morning to finish up all the booklets, you guys are my savior. To those who keep on asking question, thank you for occupying my time, honestly, i like to be asked question, to be talk with, because let's face it, you know i'm quite a shy guy to begin with. To the operation people, thank you, despite not having the chance to get along with you during the first three days, you guys are the one single team that doesn't care if were to left behind, to clean up the mess. You guys are the backbone of the operation. To the Info counter and courtesy call peeps, thank you for the helping the last 2 days, giving me companion in front the info counter at the front gate despite still having to entertain the public visitor.

I have to say i'm sorry, i can't really remember all of your names during LIMA, but i remember who you are ;) So after this ill try to remember each and every name of you guys okay?

Events

This is my actual first event that i've joined and worked for. Of course i've joined many event before in University but this is the first real time under working condition, meeting all the importants people and companies. Despite having a team which only consist of not more than 15 people to manage an event this big, they are all very much capable and succeed in making LIMA2011 happen. Although we have to suffer a bit lah kn? haha. To me it is a success, so sweet, that makes all those sleepless night, and hectic day seems like nothing now. I truly am thankful to get this opportunities to learn all sort of things here, in HWLIMA and at LIMA2011.
