Designing Destiny

I am alone in my room overlooking the damp soil of Tronoh that I am about to leave very soon. Yeah, it is drizzling right now but it is enough to give the moist and cool breeze through my window. It really gives off soothing feeling to me. Being alone like this always make me ponder about many things. Accompanied by lovely Liyana Fizi latest release, "Light Writing" and few dose of Sitti Navarro's jazz tunes, my mind start working and pondering about my destiny.

Being an engineering student, the word "design" is no stranger to me. Designing something is not as easy as it seems. Various factors need to be taken into consideration and the final design decision must be feasible and logical for implementation. I am always structure my mind to work like this and this is how I decide things although people always see me as a laid back person.

I just completed my poster evaluation as one of the requirement for my FYP (Final Year Project) completion. Alhamdulillah, everything turned out well without any glitches. And Mr. Z reassured his students with some convincing words about the evaluation result although we can easily sensed he was being sarcastic at that time or he was showing off to other students that he is the best supervisor in the world. Hehehe... Anyway, he is a good lecturer indeed and any weaknesses is acceptable as nobody is perfect, right? Alhamdulillah again, I passed the ability test as one of the requirement for securing job at PETRONAS and qualified for Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ). I hope that I have proven to them that I am the suitable future employee from the OPQ process and move on to Structured Interview (SI) afterward.

These two occurrences had actually made me ponder about my future. About how should I design my destiny. I know there is no time to waste. I should start thinking about the path that I am about to take. I have devised few feasible options to start my move. Taking all factors into account, I know this is isn't an easy task to do. There will be many variables that could hinder me from achieving my objectives. Nothing will be smooth sailing during the process. I started contacting my friends, and I had a long chat with my friend in SDAR, Mr. Kuch. We talked about the need of friends for networking and expanding our career. With prayers and encouragement from my parent and family, I hope things will be as smooth-sailing as possible. It will be not much of time left for me to start my endeavour in real world, I feel excited and anxious at the same time. Designing destiny must be achievable but it is not wrong to aim big, in fact everyone of us should aim big for our future. :)

Morning Train


Hi all, today I will be coming back to Banting by train to attend Hazmi's wedding at his house in Taman Sri Putra (dekat je dengan rumah aku tu). Before I leave, I just want to share with you my recent indulgence in jazz tunes. Here is my favourite song from Sitti Navarro. She is a Filipino singer that offers jazz and bossa nova tunes in her performance. Enjoy!


Sitti Navarro
I Didn't Know I Was Looking For Love

I was alone thinking I was just fine
I wasn’t looking for anyone to be mine
I thought love was just a fabrication
A train that wouldn’t stop at my station
Home, alone, that was my consignment
Solitary confinement
So when we met I was skirting around you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you

I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, honey
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Didn’t know I was looking for love

Cause there you stood and I would
Oh I wonder could I say how I felt
And not be misunderstood
A thousand stars came into my system
I never knew how much I had missed them
Slap on the map of my heart you landed
I was coy but you made me candid
And now the planets circle around you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you

I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Didn’t know I was looking for love

So we built from here with love the foundation
In a world of tears, one consolation
Now you’re here, there’s a full brass band
Playing in me like a wonderland
And if you left I would be two-foot small
And every tear would be a waterfall
Soundless, boundless, I surround you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you

I just didn’t know

I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you
I didn’t know I was looking for love (I just didn’t know)
Until I found you
I didn’t know I was looking for love (Oh, I just didn’t know)
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby

I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you…
