再见，北方大学

忙完了工作和毕业典礼后，终于有时间更新我的部落格了。这是一年前我与同科系的同学最后的相片集了。我在北方大学读了三年，生活除了赶课业，还是赶课业，最后总算顺利地在大学毕业和过了这个人生的旅程碑。很多人从中学就说，读到了大学就轻松了，其实一点都不会，每天都要赶功课给讲师。不过，到了工作，回想回去的话，其实活在当下，才是最好的。

Finally, this moment has come! The third convocation of my learning journey! Rushing for assignment, quiz, presentation and final examination, eventually, I have completed my study at the Northern University of Malaysia (UUM). Although facing a lot of pressures in struggling for academic achievement, but it is worth that when you strive for something by investing time and energy and you earn it in return. When the day comes, I realize that time flies so fast, when I back to here again, it seems like I step into UUM first day. This day, there is no more class and examination to wait for, my mind is empty by the convocation atmosphere without any assignment burden. Meanwhile, it is also a sign of step into the real world to chase our dream. It has been 3 years I stayed in UUM, so there are a lot of great memories around here and keep repeating in my mind even though the environment over there is still in improving stage.

This has been my second convocation in my learning journey. Although the ceremony has been passed one year ago, I think this is one of my great moment in my life. Meanwhile, I would also share my memory here as well. What is CILT about? Based on my understanding, it stands The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT), it is an organization for developing students in logistics and supply chain career by providing relevant skills and courses for them as well. Therefore, in my university, every student is compulsory taking 10 subjects fixed by the organization and pass with minimum B grade. If students cannot achieve the grade, they have to retake an examination in order to get the certificate. Frankly, I have to say, the benefits of this certificate are still in uncertainty because it is still a new syllabus in my university life. Anyway, it can be considered as an added value in our skills and knowledge in the future by taking all of the courses fixed by the association.
