Today is my last day of the Semester in ITE College West. Furthermore, I am also looking forward to my Industrial Attachment next week. I can't wait to work next week as this is my first time working at the Otis Elevator Pte Ltd. In my opinion, this company specialise in building or repairing the escalators or lifts. I should be learning about motors as the components are inside the big gadgets.
My first lesson in school is Lifeskills. Let me explain to you what is lifeskills all about. Lifeskills is a subject in ITE that the O-level students entering Higher Nitec must take. Although the subject does not affect my GPA, I always take pride with my work and be responsible for it. The subject is commonly being refered to module. GPA is a marking system whereby 1 is the lowest marks and 4 is the highest marks in ITE. Lifeskills test our soft skills such as presentation of something to the class and working together as a team. This module would like us to be more presentable in future such that we can hold interviews with our prospective employers.
In my Lifeskills today, we must present our product to the whole class. I, Muzhafar and Kathleen were in one group. Unfortunately, Kathleen cannot be with us as she was away in Harbin, China. As a result, I and Muzhafar were the only one to present. Our group name is Early Birds and the project title is Fall Alert. Fall Alert is a device to help the elderly to prevent the seriousness of falls. The device looks like a watch and inside it contains a buzzer and a push button. When the elderly falls, the person push the button on the watch and the buzzer will sound. Hopefully, there will be passers-by around to hear the alarm and comes towards the elderly. My lifeskills teacher, Mr Ernest, told my group about the prototype of the product. Unfortunately, we had not build it. I gave the reasons as being stress as to handle two other modules at one time and the most important Final Year Project. If we do not have the prototype, our grade will only be C and this will not be reflected well on the results statement. Our group must build the prototype within this holiday or we will not get a B grade. This was a depressing moment for me as the I have zero experience of making something and will be impossible to do. Since I had the Industrial Attachment that almost take most of the holidays, I will not be able to help him. I am devastated.
Later, our two friends from a different group, Hussein and Ramesh, present their projects to us. It was named Game Addiction. Theirs, was a very easy project to do as they need not do a prototype. Their product is only a blog filled with useful information about their project. I will continue..... next Lonworks

Im sorry that I did not write to the blog for about 4 years now since the incident of Mr Hafeez. First of all, halfway through my secondary education system, my family were forced to move out of our house in Hougang and move in to Bukit Merah. I heard that my father do not have enough money to pay the house bills to the HDB. In that time, I was 14 years old. We moved to my relative house in Woodlands on my mother's side temporary. Before the moving out process, our 4 room flat was filled with average size boxes and threw a lot of things.Fortunately, we only had to live there for two months because we are frustated of not having the sense of belonging and privacy in that house. The children's owner of the house keeps disturbing us in our own little room when we bought appetizing food to our "room". Despite the little resentment that we gave to them, my other two siblings, Afiqah and Akmal, enjoyed the company of the two litle ones. At one time in the evening, in the front of the living room of the five room flat, we played Dual Masters card and the use of "totomeda" when we want to finish off the opponent. One of the children's owner, Nur Firzana, called his father to say that Akmal totomedaed him and we all laughed at her. When my siblings got the news from my parents that we got a rental flat in the area of Bukit Merah, we were most overjoyed but did not tell our relatives just yet. After that announcement, we went back home late every day to touch up our rental flat home. I remembered we painted and cleaned our flat while singing a Malay song. When it was time for us to move out, I felt subdued for leaving our beloved relatives. We went to our rental flat with loads of things in the lorry.
