Reading time

I know these few days will be a very busy day...for reading. To date, I had studied for 5 articles. Actually my reading has improved a lot compare to previous. I took few days to complete an articles but now I may use few hours to complete one, subject to the length of the article. These few articles related to each others. It's about tourism and community involvement. I just realised some articles they use a case study and they be able to publish. No wonder my supervisor said we can publish an articles to the top journal. I called to TDA yesterday and they told me they had submitted the letter and the time couldn't change and told me that the Ketua Kampung may be not dare to come for meeting if we pospond the meeting to Dec because the moonson season. I did sms my supervisor about it and wait for her reply. I'm struggling to find out as many theories to support my study ,if not i m going to die. I need to present to my supervisors before I present it in the seminar. I'll work smart on it and wont make them feel disappointed with my work. Good luck to me!!!!

Tired weekend

This week is a tired week for me because I had attended two workshop this week, there were Cracking The Code and Effective Writing. I had learn a lot in these two workshop and became more confident in my postgraduate life. i learn how to write the literature review and some academic writing techniques. Besides the workshop, I have many things to deal with, especially concentrate on my coming presentation on a Seminar which will be held on 1 Dec at Port Dickson. I told myself I must do well in the seminar and try to get as many response from the lecturers. I inspire by a sentence '' People will probably forget what you did and said but they will never forget how you make them feel''. So, I gotta come out with an interesting presentation so that my audience will not 'fishing' during my presentation. I keep telling myself i need to work smart and make writing a habit. i do not want my supervisors disappointed and worry about me. I want to make them proud of me. I know I can do it. Wait and see!!!I'll prove it!

Workshop on 'Cracking the Code''

Starting from today, I need to change the blog to english written because I was told to do that. I attended a workshop conducted by Graduate School of Studies, 'Cracking the Code'' today and the instructors gave a lot of useful guidances to the students. One thing inspire me was about the time management. How can a postgraduate student to be a time planner. He requires us to write a so called 'reflesive journal' , something like a diary about our research life (lonely journey). Haha!! Well, for me I think it's good beacause it's a starting point for me to write more, to polish my english through writting. Actually my supervisors has told me to do a long time ago. What I can say is, I dont give commintment to her. I know what she does is for my good. I do appreciate what she told me. Anyway, I gonna start writing my postgraduate journey so that I can share my experience with other people, may be my juniors or my friends who are studying master now. I hope i can share something I face in my research journey and they may provide me guidelines as well, or give some support to me. Actually the most difficult is to maintain a writing habit because sometimes i am kinda lazy person. Anyway, please torture me if I do not update myself.
