What's in my typical bag to uni?

 
Here are the things that I usually carry with me every day to uni:
  • MacBook Air 11" (credits to Lin, a lady in Kelana Jaya who sold her Air to me last summer. This laptop is strictly for work purposes as it's fitted with only 64Gb of flash drive)
  • a couple of cables and a USB adapter- in case my i5 runs out of juice, but that rarely happens
  • USB drive big enough to load my whole work folder- just in case I needed work done in places where WIFI is off limits
  • lots of A4 papers- blank papers work best for me since I mostly work with diagrams and equations.
  • black, blue and red pens, one of each
  • drinking water (I really can't leave the house without one these days)
  • beanie- in case of light rain along the way.
  • gloves (my hands tend to get cold easily)
As you can already see, my bag's content is pretty basic. I don't really carry too much with me when I'm working since I found it counter-productive.

*This segment is inspired by the 'What's in Your Bag section from The Verge (one of my favorite tech magazine). Been wanting to post this for a while, but could not find the time.

So, what's in your bag?

I have an idea, lets make a video project!

Last week, days before I sat for my first paper, I had this crazy idea for a video.  Given that this is the third and final year for my friends and me, I figured why not film a video about it. In the video, the host could ask them questions like: what is your best experience here so far?  how do you feel about finishing your studies soon?  will you miss being a university student? having studied overseas for the past three years, what are your words of advice to students back home?  then somewhere in there, if possible, we could even make some sort of a shout out to our sponsors! Thank you this/ that for making our dreams come true or something like that.  Alright, maybe the questions sound a bit cliche, but I am hoping that the participants would give out interesting responses to them. I had a vision of filming them in various location, just so that they will be more relaxed as the camera is rolling. In fact, the more chilled I can get them to be...

I should seriously punish myself for being so lazy in updating my blog. It's not that I am that busy that I do not have the time to actually do it, but the truth is, I am just plain lazy to do so. I mean, yeah, with my tablet and my smartphone, I should have been more active. I love my Tuesdays, not only because this is the day when I get to download new episodes of HIMYM as well as Gossip Girl, but particularly because I have no lectures on the day. Okay, maybe in the near future I might have some tutorials to attend, but since all UCL lectures are in two-hours block, an hour of tutorial goes by right before you know it. But they do get pretty boring and sleepy at times too, or maybe that's just me. Second year, time sure flies by so quickly. I can still vividly recall the memories of last year in my head, both the nice and the bad ones. For those of you who might still remember, I for one have a 'special' reason why I despise Sundays so much. Some of you out the...

Kisah si ayah dan anaknya....

Image
Today I would like to share a story with all of you; a story about a father and his son. Si anak sedang menuntut di sebuah kolej di ibukota, manakala bapanya tinggal di kampung bersama si ibu. Pada suatu hari, si bapa menelefon anaknya untuk bertanya khabar. Mereka berdua mula berbual tentang pelajaran si anak, kesihatan dan perihal keadaannya di sana; suatu dialog yang sering didengari antara seorang bapa dan anaknya. Setelah beberapa minit, si bapa memulakan ceritanya. Rupa-rupanya, si bapa ingin bercerita tentang kereta baru yang dihadiahkan oleh si abang kepadanya. Si bapa bercerita dengan penuh semangat sehinggakan si anak yang berada di hujung talian mula tersenyum. ‘Alhamdulillah, betapa gembiranya bapaku dapat kereta baru’, detikan hati si anak. Kemudian, si bapa pula memberitahu yang dia kini berada di hospital. Si bapa jatuh tergelincir seawal pagi tadi semasa dia baru sahaja keluar dari rumah. Dia mengalami kecederaan ringan di dagu dan kaki. Setel...
