Genting Sanyen Power Family Day

Last week, I got my Final Year Project title which is “Effect of Alumina Addition on the Mechanical Properties of TiO2 Ceramic” under supervision of Prof. Madya Ir. Dr. Ramesh Singh. (Prof. Madya Ir. Dr.) --> A very intelligent and knowledgeable professor. It is a research based project that requires me to do a lot of literature reviews and experiments. Unlike design projects, I don’t have to spend money on building up prototypes which sometimes cost more than thousands. I still remember the conversation with him on the first day I met him.

Prof. Madya Ir. Dr. : Why you want to take my project?
JH : Because I can progress after I graduate.
Prof. Madya Ir. Dr. : What is your CGPA?
JH : My CGPA is _._ _ (CGPA is more important than my name)

He explained to me later that why he wanted to look to my CGPA first is because he wanted to see whether we can have what sought of talking……… (Censored out due to sensitive contents). In short, CGPA is very important. I had a happy conversation with him and will try my BEST to score!

Last Friday, I bought a new modified refillable cartridge for my Epson printer CX3900 at Lowyat Plaza. This modified refillable cartridge requires less maintenance and is problem free compare to the Continuous Ink Supply System (CISS) that I previously installed. If you are having dilemma in selecting which modified system is the best or genuine cartridge, I would recommend modified refillable cartridge rather than CISS or genuine cartridge. Below are the proving: (Engineers are well trained in proving)

CISS -->
Cost: RM 200
Advantage: Do not have to top up the ink.
Disadvantage: If there are bubbles inside the system, high maintenance skills are required! Believe me, it’s not an easy task.

Modified refillable cartridge -->
Cost: RM 70
Advantages: Problem free from the bubbles and complicated transmission system.
Disadvantage: Have to refill the ink when the ink level runs low. (May be refill once a month, depends on the usage)

Genuine cartridge -->
Cost: RM (120 x N times)
Advantage: Compatible problem free.
Disadvantage: Costly and c
artridge cannot be refilled. Unlike the CISS and Modified refillable cartridge that require one time initial cost.

Modified Refillable Cartridge

4 x 100 ml refill inks that can print up to 2000 pages!


Last Saturday, it was our annually Genting Sanyen Power family day at Genting Awana Resort! This is the time to know all the junior scholars. (Time flies! I have become senior dy). Again, let the pictures tell the story on that day. May be this is my last Genting family day? (I am sorry, only certain people will know why. Hehe.)

Tank filled with cold water :S

With just one hit, the snow white dropped into the water and she received RM1000!

Cameron Trip

Last Thursday, we went to night market in Kajang with our new neighbour who is my secondary school classmate. She is a smart girl and always got number 1 in my class. (She is the only one I couldn’t beat!!) Who is she? She is Tan Choi Wan.
Our new neighbour --> Choi Wan

On Saturday, we went to Ipoh to try some of the famous food --> the Lou Wong Ipoh bean sprout chicken and the ‘tau fu hua’. Luckily Jason Lee didn’t bring us to the Ipoh Old Town Coffee to have our lunch. If he does so, we will definitely kill him! (FYI, Old Town Coffee cafes are everywhere in KL!) The ‘Lai Kei tau fu hua’ that Jason Lee recommended is so FINE and DELICIOUS!!! The ginger sugar is just nice and best fit to the ‘tau fu hua’. I like to eat ‘tau fu hua’ and always look for great one. This ‘Lai Kei tau fu hua’ is the BEST!

After staying an hour in Ipoh, we started our long journey to the Cameron Highlands for the Harmonica concert. From our previous experiences, we had prepared plastic bags for Jason Lee. Luckily he was fine. Thank you Pei Saan for inviting us and the tickets (RM180 each). Due to too many things to wrap up for the Cameron trip and I believe that pictures paint a thousand words so let the pictures summarize for me. Last but not least, I have a wonderful Cameron Trip!

Special 碳烧火锅 (Long chimney at the middle)

Creamy Strawberries (Business minded)
They added some cream on the top of the strawberries and charged more.
Quite cheap --> RM 4.90

Strawberries or See-doh-berry?? :P
--> RM 4.50 per box

GREENY vegetables

Served with hot Bak Kut Teh in the cold --> Great!

Why did we travel so far to Cameron Highlands?
This is because Steve Chan wanted to propose to his lovely dear dear.

Sweet sweet kiss <3 Happy marriage..

We were hidding behind the tea trees watching the couple kissing!

Happy family..

Uni Life --> so free to blog =P

Last Friday, Jason Lee and I were planning to have our dinner at Cheras大排档 to try 蚝煎 and 糖水. However, unfortunately, due to heavy traffic jam and unfamiliar with the roads in Cheras we had dinner in Mid Valley Kim Gary. 蚝煎 and 糖水, we will come to you soon. For your information, Malaysia Mega Sales is on!!! Every shop is on SALES!!! 70%!! It’s time to SHOP!!

Mix Curry (correct me if i am wrong) Steve Chan's favorite

Also is Steve Chan's favorite!

On Sunday, I fetch my father to Melacca to have eyes treatment from a traditional Chinese physician (中医师). The physician (he) is very famous until the Singaporean is willing to travel all the way to get his treatment. The result of his treatment is good and satisfactory. According to my father, ‘I am not afraid of the sun light anymore’. I am not advertising here (didn’t get any single cent) but just want to share with you all. If your parents or friends have eyes problem, you can try this. Leave a message if you would like to know the details.

All he needs is just the tiny needles with red string ( I helped him to prepare this because he is too busy)

Back to Kajang on Sunday, mosquitoes had conquered my room! With the help of Steve Chan with the 5V electrical bat, he killed 26 mosquitoes in my room!

1,2,3,4,5,6,7..................,26

PS, he was in my room.. =P

If you read Jason Lee’s blog, we have 5 hours break on Monday. This week we went to sing K at Puchong Neway. (I dunno who proposed dy) The Neway is much more luxury than the red and green box. I am impressed with the design of the interior of the K rooms. It is very HIGH class but we paid at student rate for just RM 5++ including a lunch and drink. Love to be a student.
