At the moment, when i am writing this post, i have attended my convocation for Master of Engineering Science in University of Malaya, one of touching moment appeared in my life, it shift my entire career from research to industry. I feel sad because i am going to leave my favorite career-a research life and choose to become an workaholic in a small local hospital. Life is always like that, when you reach the sky, someone is going to give you a punch to push you back, hopefully i can bounce back from it. It is going to take a long long time.
Before officially leaving for my research career (at least in the normal working hour), i would like to thanks for a lot of people, even you may not hear my voice now, but i hope you do feel it. First, thank you for Professor Komiya. Remember the lunch during our last lesson in Telemedicine, you asked me a question, "Ong, do you have any dream?". That question stuck me for long. But now I can answer you although you may not listen it or remember it. My dream is to become a honorable Professor, who can teach our new generation, to be someone who can contributed to the society.
Second people i thanks is Dr.Tan Ching Seong. Your every action is worth for me study. Every step is well planned and do it smart. Thanks for visiting me in University of Malaya, in fact, at that moment, i almost quit the research life. I apologized for rude attitude of the "The special one". I will remember that research means for share and stand for integrity, it should always be open and collaborate with others.It should nit be something which you only take it for yourself, doing it for money or has a better paycheck. I believe that only the person who has good motivation and doing it for the world can stay in the research world. Even the smarter and can published a lot are well reserved in UM, I believe that one day "The special one" will realize it.
Third person i thanks is Dr.Caroline Jee. Your taught in my artificial organ is always recalled in my mind.
"you know, when i as top scholar in UM, i go to British, and i found i am nothing, how surprise I am?"
Everytime i think about you, i will feel encourage. as smart person like you, also will has that moment, I know i will not be alone.
Fourth person is the "The special one", you are the only one who did not hold me back when i said i want to quit after so many project i has completed and followed them.
"I think you can be a good engineer but not a good researcher."as you said, i turned into the industry. And after experiencing it, seeing the death and life in the ICU in the hospital, i know the one i loved still is research works. But sadly to say, i know it is too late for me to go for it.
but still i feel grateful to you, as you keep your promise to let me graduate from master. thanks for your first three month trust on me. I think argument involve two people to happen, so i should take half responsibility. I never regret to join your team, as I give it my best during my research life for cracking problem in biomedical engineering field. thanks for your help in editing my paper, or your paper, as you contributed quite a lot, so i think i will not take it as my own paper not matter how high the impact factor is. The idea for cracking it is actually appear in my dream, when i am so desperate to find a solution for it. Goodbye, and take care. You will be better without me. same thing to my team mate. Don't worry, quit this project will not kill me, it will only make me become stronger.
Hopefully my IELTS 7.5 average can bring me to another country to start my new research career. Thanks for Dr.Matt Might, assistant Professor from University of Utah. Your email reply caught me in surprise. As such a busy man, you reply my email with that sentence," I think you should be able to get a new supervisor.". How wonderful email it is. i will one day go to pay you a visit, if at the end of my life, i can become a Professor.
Any job besides researcher, i will not like it. so being an biomedical engineer or a cleaner, for me are the same stuff. Tomorrow wake up i will become a biomedical engineer. Even i do not like it, i will still need it to feed myself and family.
Guys, wish all the best ~
