Unbelievably, this post finally come up. It's been two weeks since I first arrived on the ground of Kajang, Selangor. But, due to hectic schedule, I was unable to post out something to update my fella friends regarding on my life as an intern student.
Up to day 10, the journey becoming more and more stressful. The tasks I received is getting tougher and tougher. Compared to the assignments given to me during my uni life, that's was nothing. You can skip your assignments given by your lecture any time you like since the most they can do, is just to deduct your marks but it is completely different when you're in a working environment. Every assignments / tasks you received are $$$ and is going to give impression towards your boss(es).
Thankfully, as a Marine Biologist, we been trained to be a multi-purpose person and usually we handle numerous works in one shot. So, I think I doing well and had gave quite a good impression to my boss.
Working in Innovasi Samudra Sdn. Bhd. is a big challenge to myself. Since I was from Marine Biology, so I know nothing about geology, chemistry and physical aspect about the ocean. But, in this company, I am going to do stuff about all the above aspects which is quite new to my study.

That's for the general view. Now, let's move deeper. During this internship, my major task will be assisting Mr.Lin, in doing a project namely, Comparison between traditional method, sediment trap and sedimeter on the sedimentation rate on branching and massive coral. It's sound huge right ? It's really a big thing. This project is done for publication. So, stay tune for this journal to appear in Science Direct.
This week, I did a pre-sampling at Tanjung Tuan, Port Dickson with Mr.Lin and another co-worker, Marcus. We planning to deploy our latest device, Sedimeter (which cost RM XXXXX) into the ground, to collect some data before the real sampling.
I got free dive. For three consecutive days, I done about 6 dives. The current in PD was strong, and the water (OH GOD !!!) was very turbid. I can't even see anything 2 m away from me. But, what so fantastic about the trip was we stayed at the apartment (I gave 3 stars) in an air-cond room, eat well, sleep well and most importantly, I getting well and better with Mr. Lin and Marcus.
Here are some pictures that I captured during the trip :
The "Unknown" corals and seaweed that found at the survey site
Turbid water in Port Dickson, the site where I dived in
Sorry la, I'm planning to upload pics but the line here, don't allow me to do so. So this is what I can upload lo.
Thank you for reading ... ^.^
