毕业写录

一次回去,手中握着的是一张单程机票。。 跟以往相比,感觉似乎有点怪怪的。

别了,我那群可爱的研究所同窗与马来西亚的留学生。。谢谢你们所带给我的回忆。

再见了,韩国。

韩国学生生涯,再此,正式的画上了一个句点。

毕业心情 (一)

几天,我就要离开这片我生活了两年之久的国度,回到我的祖国。

坐在已收拾干净,陪伴我两年的研究室位置上,我突然留恋起这里的一切。想着过去的点滴时,心情真的很复杂。人的一生要面对许多次的转折点,就象两年前我选择离开故乡、亲人,放弃我的工作一样,这次我又要离开这里——我生活了两年的地方。两年,虽称不上是很长的一段时间, 但这两年所发生的事,累积的回忆,真的很多很多。这两年里,哥哥成家立业了,家中多了一个成员,更重要的是,我找到了我的另一半,呵呵。

我已开始想象,在我拖着行李箱,离开那个住了两年的寝室时,会是什么心情,我也许会留恋的回头环顾它的每一个角落,然后心里默默的说,“再见了,我可爱的小小的寝室”。。。也许我们不会“再见”,那一刻,就是永恒。我永远不会忘记在这里生活过的两年时光。也许,在离开校园的那一刻,我也会同样的回头留下最后一瞥,从今以后,不知何时能再来,即便再来,也不再是它就读的学生。。。每天走在来回宿舍到实验室那十分钟的路程,从以往的厌倦,到今天的怀念。人,往往都是这样吧。还没有到离开的那一刻,就永远不知道那一刻的心情。

好好珍惜在韩国剩下来的几天吧!

D'Maris Seafood Buffet Restaurant

We went to this D'Maris Seafood family restaurant located at Haeundae area yesterday. It was a kind of all you can eat seafood buffet restaurant which cost USD30 per person. According to one of the Korean labmate, it was the best and the biggest buffet restaurant in Busan.
Before going for the buffet, we went for a movie at Seomyeon area--The Bourne Ultimatum. Due to the rapid camera movement in the movie...i felt a little nauseous.... The dizziness remains even after the movie....and it has somehow affects my appetite... :-s


When we reached the restaurant, I was really amazed by the environment... Due to Chu Sok holidays, almost all the tables were occupied and there were some customers sitting outside the waiting lounge waiting for their turn to be served. Luckily we've called and booked in advance...hehehe. The restaurant was indeed very large....I somehow felt it was a bit far for me to move back and forth from my seat to the food area...










My favourite dishes of the night....hahaha...crabs and prawns :P~ Honestly, the meat really taste sweet!! I couldn't recall I've taken how many round of this...



Look at this -- Mangoesteen...our queen of tropical fruits in Malaysia..hahaha. However, it was frozen...=.=""" There were rambutan as well... but the taste and the seed wasn't exactly like the one we have in Malaysia...




My overall rating...9/10 ^^

Souvenir

I have received this as a souvenir from a friend who had recently visited Taiwan for summer vacation.


Errr....The moment I received it...I was like:"Ohh?", then =.=""".... (somehow...kinda speechless). Well, if I received this kinda souvenir from a female friend...I bet the feeling will not be as awkward as receiving it from a male friend. =.="" Thinking of having something new and imported product to try on is also not a bad thing. So when I open it.......

Hell, look at that...=.=""" (sweat again...) Ladies and gentlement... this is what we called... marshmallow... awww... :P~

...with expiry date

... and a "sanitary" marshmallow label on its packaging (恋爱卫生棉花糖)....

Haeundae Beach Recap - Summer 2007

Busan is generally famous of its beaches and it is well-known as the largest port city in South Korea. The last week of July and the first week of August are the time when everyone in Korea takes their yearly vacation and pay a visit to the beach.

My professor ever mentioned to us that there were estimates of 200,000 to 700,000 people flock from all cities in South Korea to the beach on any given day in August. 百闻不如一见...Therefore, I've decided to pay Korea's most famous beach - Haeundae a visit last weekend, in viewing that this would be the last summer that I gonna spend in Korea.
So here we are...the 11 of us [Malaysians]...taking group pic @ Haeundae station...(another one holding the camera ;)))
Haeundae beach @ 10am...
Haeundae beach @ 3pm...


As far as you can see from the pic, there are people and beach umbrellas. I was really amazed by the crowd and the number of umbrellas. Also, as you go along the beach, the color of the umbrellas change from red to blue and white. It depends on which hotel you are in front of. The rental of each umbrella and beach mat cost about 5,000won per day.



Though the beach is not as breathtaking as those famous one in Malaysia, sea water is not clear as the one we have at Redang, but it is still relaxing...by enjoying the crowd, the music and some water sports.



Busan sea festival will be held from 1st August till 9th August in which the activities includes a large-scale concert complemented with fireworks on the beach during the opening ceremony and all sorts of water sports tournaments. Will update the blog with those pictures if I happen to drop by there during the festive...till then~ (^^)

ITC-CSCC07 Conference

So, the week after attending my brother's wedding and got back to Korea, I've been hooked up with the preparation for this ITC-CSCC (International Technical Conference on Circuits/Systems, Computers and Communications) conference. Since my professor was one of the committee members for this conference, some of us in his laboratory were asked to help up in this conference and I was one of them. The conference was held at one of the five stars hotel in Busan from 8th July till 11st July, with participants from Korea, Japan, Thailand, Taiwan, China, India, USA, Singapore and Malaysia.


[Day 1]


We were there to attend a briefing on the work allocation and help up with some preparation tasks as well as the registration of participants.



[Day 2]

ITC conference officially kick-off date. It took around 45mins by car to reach the hotel from my campus and we need to report ourselves at hotel by 8am. Therefore, I have to wake up at 6am for 3 days continuously to get myself prepared and rush over to the hotel. 6am may not seems early for most of you...however, for a person who used to stay up late at night... it was really a torturing experience.

We were given the lunch coupons to take our lunch at hotel staff canteen. The dishes were nice and the environment reminded me of my industrial training days. There, you were able to see the staffs from various departments.

[Day 3]

There was a banquet dinner for those VIPs and participants from oversea. Thanks to some absentees, we were given the chance to join the banquet as well (actually is to fill in the emptiness). The actual cost of one banquet dinner is 60,000won (around RM200++) per person.





So, here's the menu of the banquet...




Now..here's the snapshot of the food....=p~





Since I was not a beef-eater, my dish was replaced by a grilled fish ^^



TIRAMISU~~ Very tempting...right ;) I've heard lots of comment on the quality a real and delicious tiramisu has to be. Without any delay, I took my first bite on it and.....and.......O-M-G!!! It tasted sooooooooo heavenly delicious!!! Seriously...



The highlight of the dinner was the traditional performance by a local dancing group. Goshhhh... I was really touched by the "pro" skill of those dancers. I don't normally enjoy this kinda traditional performance..but I must admit that this one really made me thumbs up..the performance was so good till I felt my soul was totally sank in the rhythm of music.... and it did temporarily drove away the pressure of study that was burdening me~


"Modeum Book"




"Hwa Gwan Moo"




So finally, 4 days of conference has come to an end. Although I was totally exhausted throughout the 4 days...sacrifying my time and energy (n most importantly, causing me unable to chat with my dear whom I miss a lot :-s) but it was indeed a nice experience....going through the stages of organizing a function ~!
