KTDI organised their annual college event known as OPERA. It was the biggest event of the kolej, and everyone will be a part of the event. Unfortunately, I didnt know about it early enough to be a part of the crew setting it up. So instead, i joined the activities as a participant and contributed to the kolej and supported their event. I had such a great time with all my friends, who all enjoyed the activities especially the hanuted house where we all scared each other so much that we had to take a break after that.

This program was about the company HUAWEI and how they brought their business, from being no one to a huge tech giant. They were giving insights on how they developed their business and how they made plans for many years into the future to make sure all their plans could be laid properly. They gave briefings about their business model, data manipulation, and how their financial goals helped them reach where they are. We also got goodies and a notebook courtesy of HUAWEI. I gained many useful information about how i should plan my future and what i should be focusing after i have graduated from university.

This event was about bringing the culture of the whole world together. I joined this event because I was intrigued about all the cultures that exists around the world. The event started around 9 am in the morning. When i first reached there, i was astonished by the number of booths there were at the place. All of the cultures each had their own display of things that they brought from their hometown. It brings a new insight to how their culture works. Then the program was started with some performances from all different types of cultures. There were dances, songs, and all kinds of other activities that were all so fun to be a part of. I really learned a lot of things from that program and i'm glad i was able to join that.
It took me a long time to get comfortable being me.
To be honest, it was only this year that I took a step back, looked at myself and thought, "What am I actually gonna do with my life?"
It was a long journey ahead of me, which i realised is gonna take a lot of effort if i actually wanna find an answer to my question. I often feel frustrated at not being 'perfect', not focusing on what I already have and always thinking that, 'I can never do that well'. It was all just a big black hole of negativity.
This year has completely changed my life around. I myself couldn’t believe that it only took one year for things to completely turn itself over. I’m not saying that it’s perfect or anything, but it certainly is better than before. However though, I’m not sure what exactly shifted my mindset .
