It's been nearly half a year now since our Polytech got our whole set of musical instruments and it's only been 2 months since our very own Music Club was formed by Hatta. And on the 15th of this month, which was last 2 weekend, they had their 1st live accoustic performance which was in conjunction with the opening of our Red Wave Week that was organized by the Electrical Engineering Department.
The day before, I had the chance to catch a practice session for 1 of the bands that would be playing. And I just have to say that these guys had real mad musical skills. They were really talented. But sadly I couldn't go and catch their performance on that night. But I know the audience would absolutely love their music.
For now my hope is that these guys would hone their talents and take it a step further and maybe more. And maybe a future plan to upgrade the music room will come sooner than later.
Later.

I Reached And I Conquered
The date was 20th March 2008. Today was the day that I'm going to set out on my wildest dreams and ambition cause ever since the first time I saw it I knew that I just had to conquer it. And counting the days now and it's close to 3 years since that day. And that day was the time that I just had to do it.
Now some of you might wonder what am I talking about and maybe some of you already know and what I'm talking about is actually my 3 years dream of going up our water tower. Well, some might say that I'm crazy, and some might say it's cool. Now just try imagining going half way up the the Eiffel Tower and looking down on the whole of Paris. That's how I imagined it. At the top, able to see the whole of Polytech Mukah and maybe even more! Cool huh?
So we climbed. And after the 1st ladder, I was starting to have my doubts and looking down was not helping at all and there were 5 ladders to climb before we reach the top. And from the pain I was starting to feel in my hands that after reaching the top, going down won't be as easy. And as we went on, I was really starting to feel the pain in my hands as they were already getting red. And after reaching the top, I tried to look down and I really can't believe how high up we were. My knees were really shaky when I got off the last ladder.
And finally we reached the top and the exit door was there. And just as soon as we stepped out of the door, the sights were just breathtaking.
