"How Open-minded Are You?"... a question that earns a lot of YESes from most ppl... but is it really so?
Or should i rephrase the question a little...
"How readily are you to accept a new concept or idea?"
"How readily are you to accept changes in life?"
"How good are you listening to peoples idea?"
Starting to get some NO now?
We often judge things... especially new things... with prejudice and stereotype without really learn the details of it... These bias actually prevent us from opening ourselves to new opportunities and ideas...
Most of the ideas suggested during meetings arent really that good... in fact they sucks... but does that means that we should label ideas during meetings as lousy and we shouldnt spend time generating them? Most of the idea arent good... but there's always at least one that are significant...
I guess its time for us to start learning on how to open ourselves to new concepts... Ask more... Listen more... Try to find out the truth behind everything... Then only u're in position to evaluate the new idea :)
We know wat we know... We may know wat we dont know... But most of the time we dunno wat we dunno!
*250 - Looking for "Pay for Biomedical Science in Malaysia"?
Something surprised me on the analytics provided by Nuffnang for my blog... i got a search hit on "pay for biomedical science in Malaysia"...
Actually i didnt really wrote about pay for biomedical science graduate in my blog b4... i just rant before that the pay for biomedical science graduate isnt good enough for me... mayb that's the keywords that attracted the hit... This led me wanted to share wat i knew with all my readers here...
Disclaimer: im going into my final year and obviously i havent really graduated yet... all info i shared here is solely experience and counseling i got from seniors, lecturers, friends and forum... may not be 100% accurate but it will be a good reference for ya... if u found any of my infos were wrong or any good infos to share, feel free to leave comments in this post... we as biomedical science students need inputs from the experienced :)
As a biomedical science degree graduate... wat u really can do with it? Most ppl will go into sales and marketing... promoting pharmaceutical drugs, biomedical research equipment and kits... One of my senior is working in this industry and his basic is rm2k... but it comes with a lucrative commission from sales volume... if u're hardworking enough, u can pump until rm6k in no time...
Another choice is to work in pathology labs and diagnostic labs... For those ppl that dont really like to deal with ppl (you shouldnt be), this is a good choice for ya, u;ll be doing lab job, routine and stable income of rm1.8k-2.8k is achievable... One of my fren went enquiring in a private well-known pathology lab, they offer him rm3k including all the allowance... About the same pay goes to the insurance underwriter...
Let's say we further our studies, im sure there's some fellowship programme that u can apply to... in my uni, we can get rm1.5k as allowance with fee exemption if we successfully applied for the Graduate Research Fellowship... Seems quite good to me...
As a junior lecturer after u finish ur phD... (the info i got quite surprise me) we will be only having rm3k-rm4k as a start (basic la, dont worry)... or an experienced phD will be at 5k-6k... and only after that u hav to climb ur own ladder to more than rm10k or even rm20k as a professor... That will be at least 40 years old i think O.o

*248 - Hectic Week @@
Whoa... i'd not been resting enough this week... incessant events, activities, tests and assignments queuing up in a long long list...
Gotta freaked out soon... LOL
Came across this words in my personnel supervision lecture notes... "external locus of control"...
Im one of the committee for the Malaysian Symposium on Biomedical Science 2010... (in fact, now im slacking in the main lecture hall :P) As u all should already knew... Organizing an event especially such a big one like this... is never been easy... its very TOUGH actually...
Many things went wrong... and i noticed many ppl are practicing external locus of control... what it means is one tend to blame others or natural uncontrolled causes that caused the problems...
Most ppl only know how to blames others... and we all tend to blame others 1st when anything goes wrong without really reconsidering... do u noticed that trend? So when will only a person will make him/herself as the primary cause of the events 1st?
I guess this is something that we all need to learn to be successful in an organisation and meet organisation goals as a whole...
Try to be aware of these when u wanna blame someone on something in the future... If u really consider the cause... It always everyone's fault :)
ps: now obviously it will be my fault if i didnt get all my assignments done during the weekends... die~ LOL

*247 - Where You Heading?
Life's a two way ticket... and u'll cant be standing still at one place too... so its either forward or reverse...
What does it means?
When everyone is moving forward while u're not... then u'll be lagging behind... No matter if you're a rabbit that runs so much faster than a tortoise, a quick nap is catastrophic enough... U'll need tons of energy to catch up the tortoise... or even worst, cant catch up at all...
that's why its a two way ticket... "不进则退"... either u go forward to started to go backward without u noticing...
Which way u'll choose then?

*246 - How Medical Sciences Works
When u read a medical or health article... do u notice something special bout it? its like a new way of writing an article totally different and unique to other kinds of work...
A very good example which u may be familiar of...
"High blood cholesterol level may increase risk of stroke"
Noticed something? Anything?
I'd been observing these few years ago and i'll say that science, health sciences especially is NOT DEFINITIVE...
So wat do u mean by MAY INCREASE RISK of stroke? does it cause stroke? does everyone with high cholesterol gets stroke? do it mean it maybe increase ur risk or it may not be?
We are studying and researching health sciences using statistic... considering all the variations, exceptions and individuality... everything is in percentage... how u can really understand health sciences?
In my opinion... one needs to know the true pathology, or physiology of the disease... u'll need to know how stroke develop... wat's the process that cause blood vessels blockage in the brain... then u evaluate urself wat factors can affect the pathways of the process...
Whey im writing this? coz most of the time wat public gets from a medical journal or article may not be the most correct info... they may understand the wrong concept... from the above example... it doesnt mean that reducing ur cholesterol intake will reduce ur blood cholesterol and helped on ur stroke...
How much do u agree with me?

*245 - To Be Honest
its been 3 months i didnt blog properly... if u noticed... so where i'd been?
not that i lost passion to blogging... i had so many things to share with all my readers... but something caught my thought 3 months ago...
I'd been blogging bout happenings of my life... posting photos bla bla bla... but i realised that ppl can track u from there... by reading, analysing all the blog post... one can simply guess and assume things bout you...
same thing happens on facebook too... ppl can stalk you... comment ur character behind you.... based on the info they gathered from blogs and social networking sites... which is not true most of the time...
its still ok when this is done by frens... but wat about by authorities? your employer? or your superior?
to be honest, this is why i stopped update my blog and seldom post any status... i lived an exciting life... should i share everything?

*242 - Eastin Hotel, Penang
Another "Balik Penang" trip for my family this holiday... and this time we stayed in the new Eastin Hotel in Bayan Lepas Penang... Very near to QueensBay Mall... In fact its just 3 mins walk...
Its another business class hotel that is highly advertised in papers, magazines etc... U can tell that too after u notice numerous of signs and billboards pointing ur way to the hotels... Very good publicity i'll say since its still very new and they already got their rooms all filled up this holiday...
Eastin is a very beautiful building... I'll say its one of the best hotel in Penang in design exteriorly and interiorly... Modern urban designing with a sense of nature... Hmmm... (G Hotel still has the best design)
At the lobby, there's a small lounge beside... Very small i'll say... Nothing special there... And on the other corner is the restaurant that serves buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner... Swee Brasserie... I got to know from Michelle's fren that the chef are sent overseas (France if not mistaken) to learn all the food specialty... No reviews on the food since i did not dine there... Who wanna eat in that restaurant while in Penang? LOL... Local hawker stalls is so so much more tempting xD
Here's the Not-So-Good part... Had quite a bad experience with the service there... Staff were not well-trained and they are all totally BLUR =.= mayb its still new...
We called for reservation few weeks b4 the trip... The receptionist said reservation must be made to the sales department... but we tried to called a few times and for a few days... Its always engaged... I doubt that they have such good business O.o Then we manage to get the receptionist to reserve for us (as wat we're told she will inform the sales department)... When we reached there, there's no room for us... Since we got her name, we asked to girl out to solve the problem... And she said she inform the sales department... and its the sales department fault... After unsuccessful dealing with the sales department officer, we request to speak to the sales manager... One funny question he ask us: "we have 5 managers, which one u wanna speak to?" LOL... really LOLed... How i know which manager i wanna speak to... Just call a relevant manager out la =.=
We got our room... Instead of the room we reserved, there's only 1 seaview room available (suppose its at rm198++ but we manage to have it for the price of rm168++ as the room we reserved)... Wow... Seaview... That's the seaview we had...
I wondered how that small piece of sea cost another rm30++ O.o... Damn not worth it... I can see QueensBay Mall, Pulau Jerejak and the OXO cafe from my room :)
For the rooms... Its very very very very small... They advertised they use LCD tv in every room... And now i know why they use LCD tv... Coz i cant even find a place to put the conventional tv... O.o See for urself...
In conclusion... Its a very beautiful hotel, near to shopping mall but not so value for money and not really that comfortable... I think their service will improve after sometime but meanwhile their staffs are still very blur... LOL... There's still plenty of better hotels out there :P

*240 - Pao Lo 包佬, Famous Pao In Langkap, Perak
This is something u can find in the very very small rural town of Langkap, Perak...
Pao Lo 包佬 that sells all kinds of Pao and very famous among the locals...
My dad got to know this place because his customers in Langkap introduced to em... Its all about fresh made Pao's from the kitchen at the back...
I think my bro's face looks exactly like the Pao =.=
They hav these "Pillow Pao" (枕头包)... filled with fatty pork... Special but not really tat good :/
We also ordered Peanut Pao and Chicken Pao, but i had a Lo Mai Kai "Glutinous Rice Chicken" (糯米鸡)...
Overall its ok... But frankly is nothing special if u compare to those commercialized Pao in the urban city... The beauty of these Pao is the freshness and a healthier choice since its all kampung chicken for the ingredient... Can try if u happens to be in Langkap (i wonders how O.o)
Pao Lo 包佬 that sells all kinds of Pao and very famous among the locals...
My dad got to know this place because his customers in Langkap introduced to em... Its all about fresh made Pao's from the kitchen at the back...
I think my bro's face looks exactly like the Pao =.=
They hav these "Pillow Pao" (枕头包)... filled with fatty pork... Special but not really tat good :/

*239 - Post-Job: I'm Grateful
Talking bout my last job... (finally im writing bout it :P)
My night shift ended after 6am... 7something if there's OT... Frankly... Its been a very long time i'd missed the Sunrise and totally forgotten the beauty of it... The view of nature is always so fascinating... This job allowed me to cherish the Sunrise once again... I felt so energetic every early morning (though mayb that's my punch-out time xD), listened to Hitz.fm morning crew, watching the city lights go off one by one... It gave u inspiration and motivation with "Its a new day!" kind of feel... Why dont u try rising early and experience it urself... with a good breakfast meal, these sure will make ur day!
This is the one video that u'll like to watch it every morning... Its in my com, my phone, my ipod... Inspiring video that helps u jump start ur day :)

*235 - Why This Job?
Sorry people... Was missing for weeks from the blogosphere :/ Im totally lack of writing inspiration due to sleep deprivation... My data entry job huh...
Yeah... Night shift did make a person's biological clock go haywire... Do consider twice (million times is recommended) if u wish to work night shift =.= Some experience to share... Before u can adapt to the change, u're a total mess... U cant eat, u cant sleep and u cant even find a time to poop :/ I was having problem in identifying which day im in... What's my lunch time and what's my dinner time or perhaps others called it supper and breakfast? O.o
Many ppl had been asking me "Why this job?"... and the fact is i had to agree with u its not a worth-to-do job at all... Odd timing, not a really high pay job, distant workplace, stupid parking charges and blood-sucking tolls, the one and only one mamak available that serve the worst food i ever had... Hmmm... Complains still can go on and on...
Not that i really in need of money to live on, i chose this job just because its offer suits my calendar... Today will be my last day and i'll be enjoying my sem break... To think logic financially, despite those complains i got above, why not i earn some (really SOME after all deductions) rather than i sit at home and do nothing? Unless i got a better job offer, or else i'll stick to this job of course... Not that u can always choose a good job anyway...
Many ppl especially graduates tend to choose their job so fastidiously... End up "this not a good time", "this not having good pay", "this just sucks" or whatever... this doesnt help in anyway financially... It will only waste ur time unemployed (mayb be u can hav some mushrooms after u grow it at home =.=) Why not do some not-so-good job until u find a better offer? Something is better than nothing... Its either u earn money or keep spending money, u still at least need to eat right?
Thus that's how i ended up in this job and trying to detach myself from my comfort zone... Trying to stop my expenditure and at least accumulate some cash too... On the other hand, i noticed how lucky am i compare to my other colleagues... plus Every new place u will learn something new... something its there but u may never realise before... I'll share wat i learned in my next post xD

*234 - Kinda My Easiest and Worst Job
Cant believe im still so so busy until i left my blog alone even after my finals... Events after events, functions to attend, friends to entertain and pile of things to do that got me insane =.=
Im hooked up to a data entry job Joachim introduced... We're suppose to key in the center no. and candidate number on the exam papers tat UK students sat for... Something i dont understand though... Why dont they use Optical readers for this numerical entry? Imagine u're wasting resources paying hundres of ppl, doing 3 passes to check the accuracy of the data, jeopardize hundred's health as we're working UK time... Oh god...
Basically quite a boring routine job working like a robot =.= u type in wat u see, next, type in wat u see, next~ for the whole damn night... From now on, i swear i wont be complaining if anyone keys in my info wrongly... Now i know how hard it is =.=
So tat's my life recently... Just a temporary project so i guess i'll be free soon... with a bit of extra cash :)
ps: dont ask me out to mamak recently... im having mamak (the only place nearby) for supper everyday :/
