Finding one's way

Secret War Journal[1 January 2017] [Updated 1 June 2017]
The Year 2017. Interestingly, the direction to move towards gotten murkier as I near graduation. With almost a year left to graduation, it is now time to think really hard. Really hard as to what I wish to achieve when I graduate. This wishlist will be much harder to conceive, as a result.


  1. Attend networking sessions
  2. Take a course (time to upgrade myself)
  3. Clear IPPT (Time to be fit again)
  4. Learn Driving (Probably change instructor)
  5. Go on an Overseas trip with friends (I think I need it...)

Summer 2016 Wishlist

Tuesday, May 3, 2016
Secret War Journal[May - August 2016][Updated 8 August 2016]
After a long and hard fought semester, the summer is finally upon us. It is the time to finish up the incomplete posts. Who am I kidding? I need to write the latest articles first.

Which brings us to...the goals for this holidays. It's going to be more of leisure this time round because I decided I need a break from all this hectic projects recently. (Okay, I am a workaholic, I already have some commitments to attend to.)

  • Plan Workshop
  • Execute Workshop
  • Learn C#
  • Watch Descendants of The Suns (O.o)
  • Watch Game of Thrones Season 4 (grossly behind)
  • Continue Driving Lessons 
  • Buy a PS Vita Game (kinda)
  • Clear IPPT #1 (meh)[YES]
  • Clear IPPT #2 (Round 2, fight)
  • Go Taiwan
  • Go Thailand
  • Go Korea

Because I'm crazy~~~~~

2016: Blazing the Path Ahead

Saturday, January 2, 2016
Secret War Journal[2016][Updated 14 March 2016]


This took a bit of time because there has been (still) a delay in the post wrapping up 2015.

The reason behind that could be attributed to me deciding to scrap the initial completed post + outline 2 weeks before the end of the year. This forced me to allocate more time to start afresh the direction the post should take.

No matter, 2016 is here and 2015 is past us. While I decide if I would post the 2015 post, let us start this year with a whole new list of new year resolutions! :)


  1. Secure an Internship for 2017
  2. Read Reaper's Gale
  3. Read Toll the Hounds
  4. Clean up the room at least twice per month
  5. Get a driving license (Started!)
  6. Learn Ruby

What do ya know! It is already the week that denotes the half of the semester. I do not even remember blogging much during this period of time. For that, I must apologise once more. Tsk.

Today marks the start of my recess week after countless quizzes and presentations last week. That means I finally have some time for myself and work on completing some goals for myself. (Hopefully)

Here goes...

  1. Complete Dead Space 2 (Really now...)
  2. Read at least 3 chapters in Reaper's Gale (I have to make some progress in this area, don't I? Speaking of which, I had to read a chapter back to get a sense of where I left off the last time)
  3. Draw Combineset Logo
