FYP Done For Good ;)

Container Depot,NorthPort

In case if you were wondering, FYP stands for Final Year Project and mine is done once and for all of my degree life. Something happy to say after spending almost a year of effort,sweat and blood conducting detailed research on ISO 9001:2008. Yeah,you guys could have probably heard it all over the place and trust me,if the college/university you're studying in has no ISO certification,then there is no point for you to continue studying there despite all the great courses offered and same goes with all those multinational companies and organizations as well. You are not certified by ISO 9001,then you just lose the perks to compete with other certified companies/organization.

Me and my partner,both conducting research on ISO 9001 but under different discipline

So yeah,Shahirah is the name of my partner and she was conducting her research on marine service providers (Freight Forwarding,Warehousing,Logistics) while I was conducting mine on marine construction (Shipbuilding/Offshore structure construction) whereby we had to choose specific companies to distribute questionnaire's and benchmark them in terms of quality performance. This later is summarized and extracted into our report which will then be printed and turned into reference for future students. Lucky one's will also be chosen to represent their research in certain events such as LIMA 2013 to which a senior of mine attended to present her research which was also on ISO 9001:2008.

Our FYP is divided into 2 separate division which are FYP1 and FYP2. FYP1 is conducted from the campus itself whereby we need to search for journals supporting our research and come up with plannings for FYP2 while FYP2 is whereby we are sent out into the real world for data/information seeking. It may sound fun but trust me,it ain't fun at all. Remember hauling ass all the way from Lumut to Klang for 2 months straight and ended up getting the typical attitude- 'Orang x de la adik','Boss Cuti la adik' and bla bla bla as the list goes on.....

The first ever company to respond to my questionnaire's.Located in Kapar,Klang

 The companies that I've chosen were not so bad in terms of attitude but my partner was not so lucky though :( Few of the company especially IP logistics located in Pandamaran,Klang was not being professional at all when it comes to business nor public relation,none of the employee know respect and there was no willingness for them to know about the research we were conducting and the positive changes it might bring. Chased out but what surprises me is that multinational companies like MISC with international recognition's decided to keep us waiting for 2 hours under the scorching Sun!!! (Pulau Indah heat is much more intense compared to Port Klang heat) and at last we were not entertained and chased out by some Bangla's eventhough we were wearing unifroms representing where we are from. Karma is a Bitch they say and guess what??? The company is facing financial crisis and might close shop sooner or later....hahaha,serves you right Bro :D

Everything was collected including the questionnaires sent in the early stages and few other documents which needs to processed and transformed into the report. It took quite a number of time for us to interpret the data and keyed it into the SPSS system.For those of you whom dont know anything about SPSS,it's a software made by IBM just to make your life harder in terms of statistics :P It took us just 2 weeks to find out the mean and correlation,now you know SPSS can be such a pain in the ass right? :P Glad all was done, obtained result and included it into the report.

Supervisor gave us a green light and asked us to proceed with the finals stages which was presentation in front of experienced panels. Everything went well despite panels getting changed at the last minute and them bombarding me with out of the box questions.Answered each and every question back like a BOSS!!! ;) It's done for ever,report printed and sent over that day itself....came back just to prepare myself for next weeks finals paper and yes I know,I haven't began anything yet :P

I Miss Mum,Dad and Home :(

It's been more than 1 month since I last met my parents and now I'm missing them so much.Just imagine celebrating New Year,your parents wedding anniversary without you near them and the least you could do for them is wishing them via a phone call :(hurts ain't it? Then imagine how was my feeling's then.I've made up my mind now,gonna complete all my pending work by next week Thursday and prepare to leave home on Friday.I seriously need to look at my parents and siblings.They seem to be my personal motivator and energy booster's :P HAHAHAHAHA,I was not joking though.Miss mom's cooking and nothing the beats home food and also dad's nagging,Owh,how I miss his nagging and I would do anything to hear that again.Then,yamcha session with my friends as usual on a Saturday evening either in Sri Melur or Asia Cafe and spending hours talking bout past,present,future over a cup of coffee and a box of cigarette.That's how my Saturday's would be if I'm home.I don't spend much money and I dislike going out to expensive places like Sunway Pyramid,Summit and Subang Parade.Unless if there's something that I need to get,then that's where I will be headed.

Me and my momma,notice her face?That's the tired face of a full time housewife

Mum and Dad together in Korea,Winter Sonata papa and mama :D

The Sea is My Playground!

The caption pretty much explains to you guys on how much I love my future career.I was always into marine environment,large vessels,rough sea and so on concerned with shipping and the ocean.After so long,finally gonna haul my ass out of UNI and get a proper job for real!Hell yeah,completing my degree end of this year and then might be applying internship over at WestPorts,Malaysia FYI,WestPorts is the largest container handling terminal in Malaysia and getting such organization for internship must be considered lucky.I'm trying my very best to land a job in WestPorts since the organization is expanding from time to time and currently joint ventures with  French container company called CMA-CGM to expand further in the near future.The earlier I get that job before the expansion of both organization,then I have a bright future for ME and of course my family.
