LIFE OF A DEVELOPER
 
       I just received my 5th check from my company this evening. I looked at my check and the first thing that comes to my mind is not how to use the money..but is to faster finish my incomplete tasks given to me. It's been 150 Days I had really joined IT real world and guess what? It's never been easy to continue to stay in if your mentality is not strong enough.
       I am just like 70% out of the IT graduates (at the beginning) who are not very strong in IT field but still can "TARIK TEPI" to survive. I am not really IT nerds who will go crazy on gadgets or new softwares. But I am clear on what I want for my life.
      I chose IT as my career since the day I register this course in my college and I have to be responsible to myself and of course to my parents. I am lucky enough that I had joined this company, because the colleugues keep on giving me chances to learn. I really need to thank them.
     But being a developer isn't easy. You need to have logical thinking, you need to think more, you need to be a fast learner and you need to be hardworking, You need to face stress and meet deadlines everyday....blah blah blah....
    Of course, you will get almost the same thing from what you give through the process. The more experience you gain from the process, your market value in IT field will increase day per day......
Yeah....this is IT.....IT people depend on experience. The more you experience have, the more you can get for your pay check !!
    If weren't for the check, I think I will go insane within 30 days. Boss keep on giving pressures due to deadlines. When you complete a portion of things, the boss said want to change. At that time only "What the fuck!Change??!!" appear in my mind. Of course I wouldn't dare to say it. Everyday keep to myself....and this is where stress comes.
    But if werent because of the deadline, programming is fun too.....and this proves that those who fall under 70% category earlier like me can slowly crawl to the 30% category who are expert in IT.
    I only believe in one thing and it is always true to me. Believe in yourself and you can do it as long as you want to. If you still can't do it, it's just because you are not desperate enough to do it and not because you do not have the ability!
 
Agree or not?

Wow.....Malaysian Idol 2 had come to an END ....finally.....
Too bad I didn't go to Genting yesterday Nite.....but i managed to "Follow" 8TV to ARENA of STARS and watch the fabulous nite together with NITA and Daniel Fansssss......
 
I am not a 100% Malaysian Idol Fans frankly.....
I didn't watch every episod for Malaysian IDOL 1 and Malaysian IDOL2.....
But it always hit me hard when i started to put myself into Malaysian IDOL fan's shoe ...cus it is really a good show.....
 
MALAYSIAN IDOL 2 GRAND FINALE
It is the best when all the the top 11 Malaysian Idolss come out to sing and dance in front of the audience.....
With different races but with one aim (To bring the best to Malaysia)......It made me think of what MALAYSIA really need to be....
Malaysian always proud that they live "HARMONY" in this country and should tell the whole world that "MALAYSIA BOLEH".....
 
ya...I agree that.... but with 1 condition.....that is ....ask the politicians in Malaysia get their hands out from our community.....
They are the ones who always raise up Racial Issues.....
UMNO....MCA....DAP....whatever....
Most of the Politicians come from a RACIAL background.....and they need their RACE to take care of their "FUTURE"....so everything comes from their mouth are full of RAICIST thinking....
 
They should watch programmes like Malaysian Idol....from what I see....there are no race / religion / language boundaries ( as far as I know ) ....Malay can be great competitors.....Indian can me Malaysian Idol....Chinese can get into finalist.....even MAT SALLEH can be part of the judges.....
This is what we hope to see in our country...
Especially when we want to RIDE ON THE GLOBALIZATION WAVE and not to be left behind.....
 
back to Malaysian Idol 2 Grand Finale..
 
NITA
Great singer !
Great Body figure !
Pop Star look !
Strong Vocal !
Yes! This is what we want in Malaysia Local Music Industry !
A voice that can bring us to the international platform....where all foreign singers stand.....
She have a bright future......
Ya...she is a STAR....no matter she wins or not ...she is still our STAR which shines ....
 
DANIEL
Talented !
Good Attitude !
Wow.....seems like he have lots of FANSss out there....
Especially malay chicks.....hahaha
Daniel is the one who can head towards chinese music industry....
He is capable....and I believe that he just need a CHANCE...
 
DANIEL vs NITA
Daniel or Nita ?
Only heaven knows!
Both of them are capable and performed well on Malaysian Idol 2 Grand Finale...
What they are competing now is the TASTE of MALAYSIAN this year.
They are totaly from 2 different category.
It is hard to compare for these 2 person......
 
So what are we waiting for?
