It is already the 8th week!

Today is a public holiday plus my internet connection is in such a good speed so I decided to update my nearly-gone-dead bloggie =)

Life has been great so far, my training is progressing well and I really enjoyed my days over there. I shall miss my colleagues when I leave for uni again. Part of me wants to stay back and continue training, but part of me wants to end this training earlier because I am lazy haha. Plus, I am still not done with my daily report =(

Like most of my friends, I am entering the 9th week of my training. In these 9 weeks, not only I worked from Monday to Friday, nearly every weekend I spent my time with my uni friends. Just realised that in this semester break I went to so many places. Malacca, Alor Setar, and many places in Penang which I will not go. Plus, I actually joined Penang Bridge International Marathon and finished the 10km run =) Totally love this sem break!

Just last weekend, I followed some of my colleagues (they are all from Shyuan's department) to a photo shooting session. Haha Shyuan and I thought we could learn some skills from them as they have been playing with cameras for some time, so we decided to accept their invitation =)

Last weekend an event named "Pillow Fight" was held in Penang Times Square. Heard that they wanted to create a record of being the largest pillow fight ever held in the world with an estimated of 4000 participants. But what I saw on that day was like maybe 200 participants, or maybe less? Anyway that was non of my business as we just went for photo shooting.

Now, let me introduce the "photo shooting crew" to all of you!!!

Tang tang tang tang!!!!



These pictures were taken when the main actors and actresses were really concentrating in capturing the best angle so everyone was in "natural state". And by the way, "Ceceilia" is Shyuan's new name, given by my classmates =)

There were only 3 DSLRs though there were 5 of us. So we took turns to be cameramen/cameragirls and models. So some pictures look nice and professional yet some look lousy. Haha, I really still need to improve a lot.




I used to have the passion in capturing breathtaking sceneries or still buildings, but after that day, I noticed that I was influenced by them and has started to develop another passion, which is to capture human's priceless expressions.




After spending the entire morning at the event area outside Times Square, we went to Little Cottage for lunch before proceeding to Bagan. I hope that I will be able to improve more haha.




Now let me show you some of my daily life photos in ACT.

Inside my office (PSD), though that is my colleague's working place:



Celebrated my 21st and Shyuan's supervisor's 40th birthday in SOHO, AutoCity. The first lunch I had with so many engineers.



And we were invited to ACT Annual Dinner though we are just trainees. Grabbed the chance to take pictures with seniors, but missed the chance to take picture with our MD. Sigh.



They are all so nice, friendly and crazy so both me and Shyuan have no problems in adapting ourselves. My seniors are always willing to give me advices about my future, explaining in detail about things that I do not understand and are always so happy to teach me new things.

I hope that for the remaining weeks, I can fully utilize my time and learn more things.


"要懂得争取,training是最好的时候让你学习。"
"You must know how to request and grab your chance to learn."


That was what my colleague told me. I hope I can do that.

Sunset

Hey people!! Haha I know I have not been blogging for ages, sorry! Should have massive updates but currently I am in Shyuan's house blogging away while 'borrowing' her internet connection, so I shall update only a bit of me =)

My internet connection is really giving me lots of problems. Feel like strangling the technician =_=

Anyway, just to inform, I am having fun working at my company. Great colleagues and stuffs. Shall blog about it another time.

And all these weekends that I had after I came back Penang, I nearly spent most of them with my coursemates. Hang around and brought them to various places for sight seeing and places with yummy delicacies. Gosh, thinking of Penang food just makes me hungry ^^

Just came back from Alor Setar yesterday. 6 of us spent 2 days 1 night over there visiting places where Alor Setar people will not visit. Haha. Sounds familiar right? Like Penang people will not go Pulau Jerejak >.<

This trip is surely one that I will always remember =) It meant more than merely a sight seeing trip, and I really appreciate it.

Like sunset, the process is too short. Happy and good moments always do not last long. The most important thing is that we really appreciate the whole sun setting process and cherish every moment of it, keeping the best in our memories and let it stay there forever.



Of course, we hope that our good moments can last forever. But rather than just hoping, I would say, the moment now is the most important thing. No matter what will happen in the future, by cherishing and enjoying every moment of now we are having is the best thing we can do.

I have learnt my lesson. Be happy and be good to myself are what I shall always keep in mind =) Dom Dom, Xue Le is happy so no worries ya!


"乐" - Le (happiness)


So what can I say more?

I love sunset.




But I definitely love YOU more ^^
