The Barbeque with Friends

Hi all,

Wohoo! Ha ha... I went to a barbeque with my friends recently on the 16th and 17th of June. It was to be an overnight barbeque, and there were a lot of my really close friends attending it. During the barbeque, I had great talks with most them and on top of it all, the activities that we did we outrageously fun! Imagine being able to play soccer by the midnight seaside with some of your best friends while eating, laughing and joking together, all that the same time.

We also rented bicycles and tried to make our way to OCH (Old Changi Hospital) to find out whether its haunted reputation were really true (Ooooooo... Scary....) but sadly, we couldn't find it (awwwww), and it wasn't on our map either (*sighs*).It was truly a pain in the neck trying to find the hospital in the first place, but what almost knocked us out was the journey back (it was so goddamn long that I almost wanted to give up there and then and take a taxi ride back home). We really saw a lot of the hidden and beautiful sights in Singapore on our journey. For example, did you know that Singapore has one of the most

On that night, I got to see one of the most beautiful and happiest things in my life - a group of my friends having fun together. For the readers out there, this is what I learnt on that day: it is truly the friends in your life that make you happy. So cherish them while you can. Or joke with them while you can. Or hug them while you can. You get the picture. Ha ha. :P

What my name means...

Hi all,

I seem to be in a bit of a daze these days, wondering whether I would be able to pick up my strength and will to continue on with my projects. The school work that I had done really did took a toll on me, more than I had even realised. So in this daze I decided to find meaning in my work and myself, and suddenly a bright idea came to me like a bright flash of dazzling light - why not find meaning in my name? So I searched the web (UIR did come in handy) and I did find something interesting:

What Lokman Hakim Means

You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are a seeker of knowledge, and you have learned many things in your life. You are also a keeper of knowledge - meaning you don't spill secrets or spread gossip. People sometimes think you're snobby or aloof, but you're just too deep in thought to pay attention to them. You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.

What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

Well, I would really like this to be verified by my close friends. It seems that most of what they described about me rings true in my opinion. I really suggest that you give it a try to give yourself a perk in life. Ha ha. I too have an advice about living, and I follow it word by word: The world is in your hands. Be what you want to be. Well, that's it for now. Till next time, bye! :P

Hie All!

Hi all,

I'm BACK!!! Oh, finally. The first semester of year 3 almost drowned me with its workload. I mean, during the first few weeks, things were great with school work bordering on the manageable side. However, during the last few weeks of that semester, the workload turned into a powerful tsunami that almost threatened to erode my sanity! Argh! But enough said on that subject, I finally got through it and damn, do I feel powerful enough to handle anything. I mean, if you can complete 43 pages for UIR (Using Internet as a Research Tool) and have still enough brain juice to write another 34 pages for MLBI (Manufacturing and Logistics Business Informatics) while juggling 9 pages of pure mental agony with ITSB (IT Systems in Banking), then hey, the SIP (Student Internship Program) couldn't be any much harder right? Ha ha. Well, that's all I have to say for today. Till next time, bye! :P

Doing JavaJive... Hope it works...

Hi all,

It's been tremendously long before my last post, and I fear that this blog is going to get rotten :( So I'm starting it all over again in an effort to revive the old through new entries. Let's see, since the last post, there's alot of things going on. I've gone into block mode with this three subjects: MLBI, ITSB and UIR. They seem quite easy, but it involves alot on the theory part, and studying for them will definitely take some time. I've also signed up for the JavaJive competion (also involving alot of work and sleepless nights). I'll hope that it'll be good enough to be counted as a major project and we'll be able to travel to the region and win it all. Good luck everyone, and wish you all the best. Till next time, bye!

NeW BeGiNiNgS, Old EnDinGs - And OVERSLEEPING

Hi all,

Well, writing has been getting harder and harder for me this days. Some experiences are just best told by word of mouth, but there are a few events worth noting and writing down.

Firstly, for the FIRST TIME EVER, I had overslept and not gone to school. Apparently, the school schedule had taken too much of a toll on me and I slept. Like a log :P. I was helping a friend till the wee hours of the morning and was going home to take a shower. Apparently, my plan was to leave for school immediately after that. This was not to be. I felt too tired that I HAD to just rest for a while, maybe for just a few hours. I told my mum to wake me up at 9.30 that morning so I could go to school. My mum did wake me up. And guess what. I WENT BACK TO SLEEP! ARGH! ROAR! SOB SOB....

I got the class worried, and i received about 50 plus miss calls. Haiz. Sorry guys. Thanks for worrying about me though. I'm touched.... Ha ha... Till next time, bye!
