Lyrics / 歌詞 / Romaji/English:

優しさの死に化粧で
Yasashi sa no shi ni keshō de

Makeup to the death of kindness

笑ってるように見せてる
waratteru yō ni miseteru

I'm showing it as if I'm laughing.

君の覚悟が分かりすぎるから
kimi no kakugo ga wakarisugiru kara

Because I understand your preparedness too much

僕はそっと手を振るだけ
boku wa sotto te o furu dake

I just softly wave my hands

「ありがとう」も「さよなら」も僕らにはもういらない
'arigatō' mo 'sayonara' mo bokura ni wa mō ira nai

We don’t need neither "Thank you" nor "Goodbye" anymore

「全部嘘だよ」そう言って笑う君を
'zenbu uso da yo' sō itte warau kimi o

"It's all a lie" with laugh I say that to you

まだ期待してるから

Because I’m yet not expecting this

いつも

透き通るほど真っ直ぐに
sukitōru hodo massugu ni

{{roughly translated..open to correction}}

I was an Intern (Undergraduate)

2011: Intern at MNC under R&D Process department..Sputter section..4 months (due to summer break adjustment for international student)..:-

1st-2nd day: Briefing & training under HR department for company policies, cleanroom SOP and ISO's..

3rd day: Qualification Exam based on previous 2 days input..result pass: continue internship..fail: repeat exam or dismiss..luckily,l was amongst those pass in first trial and release to department..end up doing nothing until 5 pm (supervisor was busy)..then only my supervisor appeared..introduced me to Directors and all departments..briefing my project..quite culture shock as >50% were japanese due to tsunami in Japan..

4th day: Supervisor (sv) gave his computer and asked me to read whatever I would like to know about the company..I read all files from morning to lunch..continued after lunch until almost 5pm..no talk to others and my head kept static to monitor until director feeling weird and asked HOD what did I read..HOD later asked my sv..and later my sv asked me what did i read..i showed him I read almost 200++ pages of company's doc..and he turned off the computer and ask me to tell the content from all doc..front process..middle process..end process..type of testers..process machine mechanisms..etc..he said..if i managed to answer all..he will bring me into production..and I got almost all correct until he asked me to draw the holder in the machine..it only based on what I imagined through the reading..so I drew it horizontally instead of vertical..luckily he was satisfied and brought me into production from front end to back end..eventhough it was already after 5pm..he showed me every process station and asked me to explain what the machine, plc, pneumatics & sensors do..if my answer was correct..he would keep silent..and when it was wrong..he would explain..then he would ask me to explain from physics point of view..i only could relate to how atom works..

5th day onwards: I started my main project..introducing next technology for company..involved a lot of journals and readings..I went home at almost 6pm everyday (eventhough trainees should go home at 5pm)..because I didn't have any basics for the technology..that I needed to put effort to understand from the 1st generation to the current 4th generation of the technology..

2nd month: got complain from customer during audit for machine setting..eventhough it was not producing reject but as a company that aims for '0' defect..every complain for improvement does matter..i had been invited to join their meeting with directors and other seniors after 5pm..I went home almost 7pm after meeting finished..

Next days onwards: continued with my project..

End of 2nd month and early of 3rd month: Invited to support troubleshoot machine based on previous meeting issue..lead by machine SME from Japan and team up with 1 engineer from Japan, my sv and other 2 engineers..the machine parts were really heavy and huge..and very tired to death..at the same time very excited..it was something that I like..

3rd month onwards: Continued with my project..whenever I got stress..I went into cleanroom and learn about machine setting with whomever technician I met..sometimes I met my sv in cleanroom and asked if anything I could help..he would give me task..eg measure R&D or Prod sample..how I wanted to measure.. I had to deal myself with related technician for the tester machine..luckily I was from R&D department..that I owned VETO power to use the machine over production member..then I compiled the data in excel and generated graph..starting from that onwards..other system engineer started to call me to help her compiled data from machine log for SPC reference..

4th months onwards: focus on completing project and help here and there whenever stress..since my sv was busy..I didn't have choice but to walk into production line and learn as much as I could about each machine with other employee..

Ends of 4th months: Project presentation and was offered to work at the company..however, i had to turn down the offer since they wanted me to stop my degree programme..now I feel regret that I simply turn down the offer..they might had other plan for me..just move on..

EMFR | Electro-Magnetic Field Radiation

Finally, I got a job..can't talk much on how I feel cause I am still new at that place..well, so far so good! Yesterday, I was promoted by a guy to buy some kind of supplement..what caught my interest is the info that I gained from this salesman.

 

Do you know cells in the body react to EMFR is harmful..the DNA produces a stress response at very low exposure?

 

 EMFR? What is that?      

 

 You know its a radiation from rare earth mines, EMFs from handphones, WIFI, high tension wires, microwave ovens, computers, TVs, radio transmission, hair dryer, home electrical wiring, mammograms, X-rays, bla bla bla..these are the emerging health problems of the 21st century.

 I see..I used with the term EMF or EMR before..never combine them together..

 

People living close to cell towers suffer from extreme sleep disruptions, chronic fatigue, nausea, skin problems, irritability, brain disturbances and cardiovascular problems..

If I'm not mistaken..these radiation comes from Sun too..right?

 

             Yes, and..

How can we avoid this? You know like sun rays and those electronics gadget you talking about.it is something that we need...

 

It is impossible to avoid them, so your best bet to mitigate the negative effect of EMFR would be my product..Organic Sea Buckthorn (SBT) !

 

Oo..         

 

The journal ( can't recall the title =P) proved my statement before and SBT has been used by Russian cosmonauts for nutrition and radiation protection in outer space!

 

 But you cannot compare the radiation over there with the radiation on Earth..don't you?

         

          

           What you mean?

Well, out there (space) the radiation much more higher..the space station also made from material that able to minimize the penetration of these harmful rays..but on this Earth..we are protected by ozone layers..and I ever heard the manufacturers of electronics device claim that the EMFR produced still safe for customer used.

 

 But recent studies reveal that inflammation is the real culprit behind cardiovascular problems ( heart attacks, strokes), diabetes, autoimmune diseases, Alzheimer's, etc.By soothing inflammation, SBT helps to prevent many dreaded health problems.

You mean inflammation from EMFR?

                  True!

Thinking back of it..you are right...even though we have ozone protection but this layer suffers depletion like due to CFCs products..

             CFCs?

Chlorofluorocarbon from most plastics products, refrigerators or air-cond gas, spray..something like that..and the claim that the electronics product EMF is safe by manufacturer only refer to one item..but basically, we human used many of them simultaneously..from day to night..total EMF exposed to fluorescent lamp, TVs, mobile phone could be high..even if the exposure is low..but it had been accumulated in my body for such long term for 20++ years..maybe it's not too late to take action..

You may try this product sir and see the effects..

:

I would love too..but you see..I lost a lot of money last time went to interviews..now I am waiting for salary..

Sir, we are now having big promotion with greatest discount..besides this SBT also great for dry and sensitive eyes, dry nose and mouth, eczema, scaly skin.itchy scalp, ulcers, asthma, elevated blood sugar level, high cholesterol and memory..it worth of buy sir!

I know, I already revised your pamphlet..see..why don't you give me your business card first..later..when I can afford to buy..I'll contact you..

Here sir.,I will look forward for your call..you better be hurry..as the price after promotion date will be much expensive..but I can help to give you lower price..just make sure you call me.

Ok, thank you..nice discussion with you.       

You are welcome..make sure you call!

Whether I buy the products or not..remain mystery..=P

-THE END-
