Finally ......
Hahahahahah .....
Finally semalam aku berjaya memecahkan record aku sendiri .... for the past 3 months (winter time)... aku tak basuh kereta aku ... SEMALAM AKU BASUH KERETA!!!!!!!! kat sini takde india yang tukang basuh kereta macam kat TTDI Jaya tu ... nak basuh sendiri tak tahan sejuk ... air paip macam air batu aje rasanya. Jadi bila spring dah start ni aku pun mulakan operasi aku membasuh kereta. Bukan setakat basuh ... vacum habis2an lagi tuh. Hahaha .... bukan setakat dirts ada kat kereta aku ... sawang (spider web) pun dah ada ... not inside the car though ... kat luar aje.
Semalam jugak aku and family for the first time pergi ke rumah Pak Didik. Dia ni kira macam Pak Lurah (ketua kampung) masyarakat Indonesia di Wollongong. Biasalah di Wollongong ni ada perkampungan Indonesia di Catherine Street (lebih dikenali sebagai Kartini Street!!!) Cuma orang Malaysia aje yang tak ramai kat sini. Hopefully setelah Wollongong berjaya dinaik tarafkan sebagai 5 star university ni semakin ramai Malaysian datang sini.
Oklah itu aje aku nak tulis .. oops type harini bizi sikit nak siapkan assignment dan prepare for test (both this friday). This term a bit tough ... every week ade aje assignment nak kena hantar ... tak sempat nak berehat dah nak kena buat assignment lagi. Kalau senang tak ape... this semester more on application for last semester's theory yang aku belajar. So, all the assignment menjurus kepada case study,research and complex judgement analysis. Ketiga2 subjects are advanced subject!!! Last semester ok lagi, setakat medium hard judgement analysis & research aje ... case study ni lak kena apply all the fraud thory & investigative methodology tought last session. PARAH !!!!!
Kenape?
Hi ....
Quite sometime since the last time aku "mencoretkan" kenangan dan pengalaman aku di Wollongong ni. Some people might think that "sebok bercuti sakan kot" .... "lupa nak tulis kot.." ... "dah tak tulis blog kot ..." ... yang sebenar2 nya sebok sikit sekarang ni. My wife dah start kerja, so nak kena jaga 2 askar yang diketahui umum sangat active tuh. Lagipun masih dalam transition period yang sebenarnya. Dulu my wife tak kerja, dia jaga anak full time .... kerja aku tolong sikit2 aje .. just main2 ngan diaorang. Sekarang ni aku lah yang kena jaga diaorg, makan diaorg, pakai diaorg, mana nak belajar lagi. Tak cukup tangan sebenarnya. Nak hantar childcare everyday tak mampu, sehari utk 2 org tu pergi childcare dah dekat AUD$100, kalau everyday hantar ... seminggu dah $500 tuh, sebulan dah $2000 lebih ... elaun BNM pun $1600lebih aje ... hahahahah mana sewanya, mana makannya lagi, nasib baik gaji kat mesia jalan, kalau tak .... So untuk seminggu hantar diaorg gi childcare 2 hari aje .... Wednesday & Friday. Those 2 days & weekends lah masa aku nak pulun sakan buat kerja ... hari2 biasa waktu diaorg tidor barulah aku berkesempatan belajar. Hectic gak hidup aku sekarang ni. Last weekend aku baru settle satu seminar.. another 2 more seminar. next Friday ada test, lepas tu assinment berlambak ... Waaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! another JUDGEMENT ANALYSIS!!!!!!!!!!!. kalau simple case takpe .... judgement aje beratus muka surat, bukan satu 4! itu baru satu assignment, ada 8 assignment this semester dan 3 major research. Last semester better sikit sebab more intro & intermediate kind of thing ... this semester dah masuk advanced level lak. Taktahulah whether boleh maintain last semester's score ke tidak.Tak improve maintain jadiklah. Lecturer lak dah letak high expectation ..... my prof dah tanya nak buat PHD tak? aku pikir2 perlu ke? atau aku nak carik practical experience? Entahlah ... let see how it goes.
Sekalung Tahniah
The University of Wollongong's status as one of Australia's top research and teaching institutions has been confirmed with five-star ratings across key categories in the nation's authoritative guide to choice of university.
The 2006 Australian Good Universities Guide, is about to be launched in newsagents and bookshops in Australia and overseas, and the University of Wollongong has achieved an impressive maximum five stars in six of the key categories in the independent Guide. Only the top 20 per cent of universities can be awarded a five-star rating in any one category.
Wollongong has scored five-star ratings for a second successive year in (1) Research Intensity, (2) Graduate Rating, (3) Getting A Job (4) Positive Graduate Outcomes, (5) Graduate Starting Salary and (6) Staff Qualifications.
The Guide's publishers, Hobsons, highlighted in a statement issued with the latest Guide that Wollongong has scored consistently well across all major indicators. The publishers say that the Guide is widely recognised as the 'bible' for anyone choosing a university course or campus.
"Look at the categories in which Wollongong has gained the maximum five stars and by anyone's standards they would have to be judged key indicators of a university's standing. I simply urge any prospective student to closely scrutinise this Guide -- it will speak for itself," UOW Vice-Chancellor, Professor Gerard Sutton said.
He said the star rating for Wollongong had been consistently high for several years now and it's great news that Wollongong has again been judged by an independent group as one of the best universities in the country not only for teaching but also as a five-star choice for potential research students.
"It's fabulous for all our international and domestic students," Professor Sutton said
