Life in PSDC (1st Sem)

Penang Skill Development Centre, as known as PSDC in short form. It's my studying place now, no guessing it's in Penang of course, located at industrial area in Bayan Lepas. I enrolled myself to this school of engineering since April. I was here for 4 months and as well I have completed the 1st sem of studies here. What I can say for PSDC is I was glad to have the chance to study at here, met quite lot of new friends and met some friendly lecturers here!

The inner view of PSDC buildings.

My Groupmates, Wei Jie and Yuan Piou. They are my best buddies also in the college, 4 of us in a group and having study together always.

They are my buddies in college too, from left Kah Poh, Swee Yinn and Chong Pin. This photo was taken after the meeting of student council on 5th July 2012. We purposely to dress up formally for this photo, sounds weird but it was fun!

He is Chong Pin a.k.a Ray Lai. A funny guy who talked a lot and share a lot of experiences with me. Say Hello! :D

He was my ETA (Electrical Technology A) lecturer Mr Ngiao. Mr Ngiao was a nice guy and he was so young and so professional in teaching electronics. Well, he was good and friendly with all of us. I wish him all the best as he is going to continue his further PHD studies in Canada soon!

He is Mr Heng, my English lecturer. He was a nice guy and I can say that he is the best lecturer I have met before in my college life. He is good and spoke a classical fluent English! He is a kind tutor and really good to everyone of us. He gave me a lot of advice and from Mr Heng I learnt a lot of things and gain a lot of experiences. Because of Mr Heng, my English is upgrading! Thank you sir!

Before the Sem 1 ends, we have captured quite a number of group photos with our lecturer. I am from Group 3 in Batch 21 at PSDC. I am glad to know all my groupmates there and they are awesome! As I hope our friendship can be last long and together we fight in PSDC! :D Posted by GenYong 10.09.2012
