Hye everyone, I set up this blog maybe in Oct 2010. I'm not an active user of this blog but I think i'll try to be an active user from now on.. I know that not many of you out there know me. Well, if you google my name, the only thing that popped up are about Col. Muammar Gaddafi.. haha sighh~~~... okay.. here a lil thing bout me...
I'm currently on my 2nd year in Management And Science University and expected to finish my studies in 6 months time.. i'm taking Diploma In Investment Management.. Before this.. i've been working with MAS as a flight attendant for 5 years.. the experience I gained are very useful for the next chapter of my life as a student..
In MSU, my friends are all younger than me.. the youngest is 18 and the eldest is 24.. btw, i'm 25 this year.. at first, I really feel I am better than them.. they should listen to me.. they should respect me.. but then, i just realize that " respect is for me to earn.. not ask..".. so I strive to earn the respect from them.. I once read a book by jack canfield.. he wrote that to be a good leader.. you must lead and influence people around you first..
Life as a student is really challenging for me as I left school about 7 years ago rather than my other fellow student friends who are really fresh from school.. At first, it is really hard for me but i take it as a challenge.. I did not do well in my first semester where I only manage to score a CGPA of 2.95.. it was a sad moment when I first hold the exam result.. I show it to my mom.. and she just look with sad eyes.. all I can say to my self is I will try harder next time around.. Eventually, I got CGPA of 3.73 on my 2nd semester.. atlast, i've made my mom proud of the result..
Here in MSU, my friends came from a different and exciting background.. My housemate who are also my classmate are the one who always had a good results.. he never failed a single subject and got on Dean's list every semester without fail.. I look at him as a challenger because I want to be the best among all of my friends.. I consider Ajeb is my best friend here.. We knew each other since the first day in class and with our parent's home are quite near to each other makes our friendship become closer...
My other best buddies are all my friends since we are in the primary school.. Now, they are all working and some had set up their own business... sometimes I'm jealous with some of my friends here who are really doing well with their job and having fun while doing it.. I feel the same when I was with MAS but now I just feel that i'm on the disadvantage and must sprint to the finish line to chase my other friends who are currently jogging to the end of the tunnel..
Even though my friends in MSU are much younger than me, some of them has the ability to think like an adult.. I think at first I just assume that I experienced more in life than them would make me more knowledgeable than them.. I WAS WRONG !!!..they actually open up my mind and make me think that age is not a barrier for someone to be more knowledgeable than the other.. my 2 years experience being with them was a really meaningful period of my life.. we play hard.. and we study hard.. out of 8-10 of my close friends in MSU i think only 2 of them who got CGPA below 3.00... I learn many things with them.. I learn how they think.. I learn how they react.. some of them are even better thinker than me.. HAHAHAH..
