5-years-Brogarian

5 years in this place called Broga. Witnessing the development from dark winding road to a big 2-lane roads. Let me take back to 5 years ago...

Around the end of September 2005; a f**ked up welcome i received from Pioneer Centuries Sdn Bhd. Had to wait for around 3 hours in front of their office coz my name wasn't one the list on their computer. After 3 hours, baru r nak carik initiatif nak tgk kat hardcopy document, n there i was in the list. Not only that, da dpt bilik, kunci lak bilik lak xde coz they give it to some other student who came earlier n they placed them there for awhile. Didn't remember how it was solved frankly. That night, suddenly there was a blackout. Yeah, what a welcoming treat to the life in Broga.

Foundation was like a honeymoon year, the 1st sem was only about a month and a half or sumthing in the ugly building of the old KL Campus and the 2nd and 3rd sem in the new campus here in Broga. At night, quite often was the visit to Ibrahim Maju, ordering the same thing; Roti Pisang (influenced by Doyeh) and Nescafe Tarik. One time, gile main Counter-strike kat CC. Siap bleh buat 2 3 round per car from broga-semenyih nak maen ramai2 pnye pasal (only me n Nik Izwan had a car that time). One night, it was raining heavily and we were in a CC at Semenyih, and time nak balik tuh, the road to broga was flooded. coz it was too deep, we had to go back to semenyih, and waited at IM tunggu banjir surut. Other most significant experience was, kene tahan dgn polis otw back to Broga. Two police in their motorcycle stopped us, questioning us and looking around my Volvo. Coz we had nothing to hide and do nothing wrong, xde point r die nak paw. hahaha.

Then enter the 1st year of Degree. Lived at the off-campus in TTS 2. The year my love story with Cheb @ Nur Hafizah Umar starts! Nik Izwan, fahmi, sharingan, Dann and Arwah Shadan was my housemate. Notable events? One night the TNB's house was on fire. Explosion sounds was heard from our house and we noticed bright light from there. BOMBA came but the fire was already out i think. only smoke. Adeke diorang sembur air kat situ. Hampess tol.. But i think the most notable one was during the summer break after 1st year, when i received the shocking news through a phone call from Ammar. My housemate, Shahdan passed away. It was quite a shock. I know he's quite sick during the term. Sometimes, he has to be hospitalised during the weekend and he was taking quite a lot of medicine (for a 20 year old). But I never actually thought it was life threatening one. Never really know what disease killed him.

Al-Fatihah. Moga rohnya dicucuri Rahmat.

2nd year, still in TTS 2, the opposite row of the same road in the 1st year. Syapiq n Co. lived at my old house. Cheb's house was exactly behind! The year i know Shah, the singaporean guy next door. I think, the new road was finished (or started?) this year. No more winding road and flooded when rain pours down heavily. The most unforgetable event this year was during the exam weeks. The night before the Computational Numerical Techniques paper. I was studying when suddenly Peja came into my house telling me that my car's windows was hit. that night, a group of the local indian gangster came into TTS2/3 and smashed the windows of 5 cars. My front and back window was hit and shattered. Dann's car was also hit. Spent the night at Kajang's Police Station making the report which was never followed up by them.

3rd year, we lived on our own. No more under the stupid Pioneer Century management. In a 2-storey bungalow with 5 rooms. Pak Cik Sani is our landlord. Nik (Izzat) can make a great impression of him! This was the final year for Sharingan, Dann n Hareez. At this house, we had Internet! No more curik wireless account of students like in 2nd year. Hareez menjadi hardcore addict of Cabal! Nearing to the end of that year, our house got 6 cars, one of each. Quite a bz year this year. Mostly coz of the Individual Research Project; entitled Aerodynamic Drag Prediction of a High Speed Vehicle. The 'High Speed Vehicle' was called Jetblack , a real project with the objective of breaking the land speed record of New Zealand and Australia.

And the final, MEng year. Only 15 of us MARA students of our batch left and I'm the only one doing Mechanical! Still the same house as 3rd year, but with Anas, Uyus and Akram and also the 3 cats; Spotty, Tiger and Pretty! 3 kucing yg sangat gedix! Also a bz year, with GDP, designing a thermoacoustic stirling enigne with Zad, Ammar and Seetho as my groupmate. Spent lots of time at the workshop and solid mechanic lab this 1st sem fabricating experiments apparatus and doing experiments. In the end, xjadi pun enjin tuh. Hahaha.

So, here it is today. The night after my final ever paper; Advance Technology Review. A dissapointing ending coz didn't hav enough time to do it all.

What's next? Job hunting for sure! Already did 3 interviews and got no answer back at all.

...and i wait anxiously for the unkown number to call me and offer me an interview (or a job!).
