Project Management

I took a subject, Project Management. Other than that, there is a seminar for this subject.
What do we do during the seminar??

Seminar is only opened for about 20 students and it is on 1st come 1st serve basis. Then the students will be divided into 3 groups, guided by 3 company, which will later assign them a project to work on. The students will be given a real problem to solve and they are supposed to apply the project management skill which they have learnt during the lecture.

My Farewell in Munich



Few days later I will be leaving Munich, to Bruchsal for my internship with Siemens. My friends and I gathered for the last time in Munich for cooking and dinner.


He is Juan, from Chile. Very funny like Jim Carrey

After dinner we adjourned to Augustina Bierhouse for a drink.







The good time that we had for the whole semester were unforgettable. We have done lots of things together like Snow fighting, Skiing, travelling, cooking and eating...etc..

Thank God that I had made very good friends during my exchange program. I will miss them alot while I am in Bruchsal, and also not knowing what to expect there... will I be able to find good friends like them in Bruchsal??

Try new stuff?? AKA train train story


Skifahren.... 1st time.. might also be the last time...as there wont be snow in Singapore and Malaysia. I went there with Clement and Jorge. We woke up damn early but boarded the wrong train. Actually it was the right train but we thought that it was the wrong train. Therefore we alighted from the train and then realised that it was the right train.... then we have to wait for another 1 hour for the next train. Sigh... stupid train.

The train took us to Lenggries, the skiing paradies. When we reached there, we attended a short train..ing course and a lady train..er (instructor) spent about 2hours to train... us so that we are trained... and fit for skiing.

After the 2 hours of train..ing and we wanna tried to ski from the top. But the train..er said that we are not trained.. enough for that. Ok.. We listened to the train..er,while we were listening. So after listening, we went up anyway. :P




1st i thought I was trained and I was full of confident.. but then... when I was up there.... "shit... i am scared"





To cut the long story short, I am finally a trained skier!! ... (of course after falling about 15 times from the top).


My friends, below are Jorge Cleto and Clement Ma. Jorge is from Mexico and Clement is from Canada.

What a wonderful trip to Spain

Well well, we spent 9 days travelling around spain, until we were very exhausted and tired. We were having hard time to search for food because we didnt know what to eat, besides, the people there dont speak english, only spanish. But experience was very funny...

I would said that it was my 1st travelling with friend at so far away from home. I really had a great time and hope that it was the same with Clement.

One of the thing which I wont forget is the photo below...
You might be wondering, what that is....



well. it is just between Clement and me. HAHAAH :D
If you wanna know, ask Clement.

Adios!!!

Granada, ~~la alhambra

After arriving Malaga, we travelled the next day to Granada to visit la alhambra for one day. The muslim palace is enormous!! It seems that there is another city in the palace itself.



Below are some photos in and outside the palace.











The photo below is a ceiling.




From the palace, one can also have a bird eye view of the surrounding.





Thats was all for that day. Then we spent sometime visiting the city and took the bus back to Malaga.

Malaga~~ la ciudad de EspaƱa

We spent 3 nights at Malaga. But the 2nd day we travelled to Granada to visit la alhambra. We reached Malaga at night and the photo below was the 1st fascinating building that we saw. I have forgotten the name of that palace. It is very big, it covers the most part of the hill around that area.









The hostel that we stayed called Picasso's corner. The photos below were the people whom we met during our stay.




There was one seafood restaurant where we visited (below), recommended by the worker at picasso's corner.




The food was very delicious but.. expensive.... hhm...



The old man at the middle is one of the waiter there. He has a old man temper but yet he is very nice and helpful. We were having communication problem with each other and hence he served us wrong food...hehehe but we just took it anyway..


And the spanish speciaty... LA PAELLA!! My favorite!!!

Sevilla, la ciudad del flamenco

After Madrid, Clement and I took a bus to Sevilla, a city of Flamenco.. i think...
This city is very beautiful... some part of it is like Malaysia... And we were very fascinated about it!!!

Below are some photos from there.


The city of Sevilla



Finally I have seen the "root" or "tail" of the rainbow. I heard that a pot of gold can be found at the tail. But I saw my own face in the water..



Pigeons like me!!!


After arriving at Sevilla, the sun was setting. This photo was taken then.

At Sevilla there are lots of big gardens, with lots of palm tree .. and lakes..









During the day of our arrival, it just happened that it was 3 holy kings day. There was a big parade on the street. The people on the parade they were throwing sweets to us!!!
Those spanishs have already prepared plastic bags or bags to collect sweets but Clement and I didnt know about it.






Nonetheless we still managed to collect many of them.


Jason: sweet~~~....

In Sevilla there is a big muslim palace, ( I have forgotten the name of it)
Below are some photos from there.



The 2 sceneries below have been used for postcards in Spain. I think mine are better!! :D






We visited a bull ring there too. Too bad that time there was no bull fighting. We went for a tour in the bull ring and was told about the story of the fighters and bulls.



Below are some photos there. Enjoy!!







The next trip will be to Malaga and Granada by bus.
