Woke up for work early at 730. Started at 830 am.. Work was okay but at one point when I got really really busy it was bad. Had lunch with 1st years, only chemical engineering gives out free food ! I’m so proud of my department. The coolest among the engineering faculty. Went for badminton after that, was suppose to play for an hour but ended up playing for three hours ! took a swim and headed back for some very very tasty boiled potatoes over seasoned chicken breast.

Had to woke up at 9 ish to help out in Freshers Fair, a place where people sign up for clubs and societies. I survived on chocolate for the whole day till dinner ! Had left over chicken and we cook up some potatoes again afterwards. Badminton club has a massive amount of people joining and I hope not everyone turns up or it will be very very pack. Looking for new talent this year for badminton and I think there will be a few ready for the game already. Long day ahead for Wednesday

Directorship

I've always been competitive and have always let some peer pressure push me along as I dwell into my career and personal goals.  From the outside looking in, one will see that I've achieve a lot. Moving from being a top boy of a little known school in Malaysia, to getting full scholarship to study at a top university in the UK before starting a career in Malaysia followed by a career in the US.  Little do people know the internal struggles I've been fighting. I'm fully appreciative and proud of my achievements. BUT, there's always some buts in life, 10 years into my professional career, I've noticed many of my peers become Directors of big organization. Because I've been bounded by one organization and despite the many opportunity within, I've moved from being an engineer to an operations manager then to a sales rep. I am far from being a Director, maybe assistant Director is of closer reach.  A title may only be a title but it is also one that is of hig...

Generic Investment Post

There are multiple ways of investment and managing your fund. I am no fund expert nor am I trained on any certified level. The levers I know are as following: 1) Real estate - rental income 2) Stocks & ETFs - company, industry dependent 3) Bitcoin - future potential of a decentralized currency To dive deeper - Real estate  You don't have real rental income until you actually own one, and rent one out. Essentially, you need to have 2 properties to start this. Staying in one then selling it for another better place is not passive income. In prime location and prime cities, it is no longer easy to find rents that will match, let alone exceed your mortgage payments. That said, unless you have a high downpayment (20-30%), paying some to top off your rental income is highly possible. Stocks & ETFs Fortunately and unfortunately, this is the most volatile time but also the most exciting time. There is a lot to gain, and also a lot to lose. I've lost the most he...

Transportation Malaysia : 2nd class lower forever

I've lived in 3 cities in the past 6 years of my life. One was where I grew up in and it is also where transportation is the worst. It is sad that after many years, Malaysia still have a terrible transportation system. Yes, the train networks are expanding but the bus services and city road plannings are terrible. It is natural to assume there will be traffic in any major city during peak hours. The government or the transport ministry puts planning into improving conditions: better rail network, more frequent bus services, accessible public bicycles, heavy occupancy vehicle lanes etc. Malaysia, however, has done poorly in all sections. My experience 2 years ago is similar to the one 2 days ago. I commute via LRT from Kelana Jaya to Damai on a daily basis. My dad has to give me a ride to the station and back from the station. I only wished that they would improve the bus services back home. There are 5 buses going from Kelana Jaya (2 rapids, 3 free shuttle buses) and between 5...
