The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Base on the Poem, i would like to share a part of my life in Penang.

After we have been graduated,there are 2 roads we shall choose,either find job or continue master or PhD. Well,i'm one of the group who applies master. i believe master can help me to find a better job or salary if possible.

For those who is closed to me, knew that i have decided to study master. Thus, before last sem was end, i went to find doc to get one of the title of his project.(wanna do literature review early).Initially, i tot he has a rough proposal,ha...in fact,he didn't have cuz at tat time, he wasn't clear about the project much bcuz it's offered by a company till we meet the person who is in charge(boss) so that i can hardly know what is the project requiring for...

So,bo huat lo,have to do proposal by my own.Actually i wan apply early so tat i can apply fellowship as well during May, who knows...haiz. however,it's good to learn how to write a proposal independently but the matter is proposal also needs to mention the methodology and what kind of machine or device to be used to carry out my project. i said:"die la,how do i know wor??"i have never entered and touched all the things in NOR Lab and also i also had no idea what kind of tools can be used...So?how?Den i have to refer to journal and find lo,try tembak some to let doc c...

haiz...last few months i corrected my proposal 4 times before i can finallized,spend much time on it and did literature review but the matter is my doc also had not much idea of it cuz he was also not clear wat can i do about it until i called him last month and he told me:"actually we need to use the lab of that company there,not in physics school."den i said:"Har!?den how??no idea to write wor?"As a result, have to meet tat boss and discuss what he has in his factory's lab before i can finalized my proposal.

at tat time i felt a bit hopeless cuz i started to c no point in my project, like doing nothing, neither like study nor like work...do all those things has no income, still need to spend my time n money on it,got outcome is ok if otherwise,haih...better i go travelling with my gf.what's da point i read the journal like hell?

the most surprising me is when the moment of that boss called me to tallk about the project last few weeks.he said:"Yea, Mr. Tee...i'm proposed u all to work full time for me, u can do research at my lab,also need to learn the machine in the future to do the production,sure i'll give u allowance,dun worry...u shud consider about cuz it's a golden chance!!no1 can have it so luckily. u can c that fuel cell(current project tat's offered by him) have great potential in the future....blah blah blah...we can make lots of money once ur research have improved it....1 week work 7 days.may b if possible work OT,sign contract for 3 years,i'll train u for 1 years, do research 2 years,....blah blah..u can have job after u grad..." whoa,he said tat project damn great and sounds like my future is brighter n brighter.feel like it's the brightest future in tis world,sounds wonderful.but i think: work full time??how much?allowance or salary??what is the difference??1 week 7 days???siao eh,u tot i'm robot??i said:" oklo, v shall meet n talk the details when i get back to penang."

if like tat,den i better to find a job,better den urs...y shud i study n work like hell for u??again...i feel like i'm heading to the wrong path,wanna turn back to starting point, choose again wich way shall i head to but i continue walking to the same way but slowly cuz i hope tat i wont go too far,afraid of no turning back...

Ok, it's time to break...i'll tell more da story when doc,frenz and i meet with the boss and his frenz at a restaurant next time.

P/S: Please help me to click the ad after u have read my story,thx:)
