2. Your progress so far?

- our week 3 seems so much progressive comparing to the first 2 weeks. we received more orders from customers and had delivered all to them. We also had meeting to discuss our next marketing strategy. we've decided to post more interesting promotional videos on our social medias and we managed to make it happens. Each of us was assigned to create and post one video which ave a total of 3 videos. Besides that, we also been discussing on selling new stuff such as t-shirt, scented candles, bags and customised stickers.

3. Your feeling and thoughts

- I am so happy and very excited to continue selling our products. some of our customers also gave a good reviews and were happy with our products. Besides that, our videos also received a good response with viewers reaching 800 people which outnumbered our followers.

4. How did you learn and apply skills of decision makings in your EP journey

- Decision-making skills is very necessary especially in business involving business partners. The most crucial part is when we need to divide our job since we need to handle our business separately. We divided our job scopes based on our positions. We had established 3 positions which are Chief Executive officer (CEO), Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), and Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Besides that, we also need to decide which time is the best to promote our products on social media which preferably during peak time.

5. How did you manage your time throughout this EP

- Honestly, it is not really easy for me to handle my EP project since we are on sem break and we had a lot of time. Thus, I tend to procrastinate my work sometimes. However, credits to my 2 other business partners, who pushed me to do my part. I also allocated my night to do some packaging and create videos.

6. Your plan for next week

Our plan for next week to keep posting attractive videos on our page. we will be having a meeting in the nearest time to update our job and will be planning on the next marketing plan. We'll be selling our remaining enamel pins which only just a few left. Besides that, we will be working on the design fr our upcoming products.

Your progress so far
Alhamdullillah, I’ve been progressing very well. I spend two weeks ago to play two favourite songs which are composed of easy chords :

- July by Noah Cyrus
- Your Power by Billie Eilish

My fingers are now has getting used to harmonise and having better transition while playing the songs even I am weak on certain part

This week, I’ve learnt the remaining 9 strumming patterns for 1 hour. The remaining hours were spent to practise the final song for my video which is July by Noah Cyrus.

Your feelings and thoughts
I am excited because I was about to finish my course and am able to pay attention on my practise. I only have one lesson left for next week.

How did you learn and apply the skill of decision making in your EP journey?
I realised that my online course only taught me the correct technique but as I practised July, I’ve learnt that learning by songs makes things much easier. So, I have to decide when and how I have to play ukulele better. It requires me to decide which online sites that I should choose and how many hours to spend to sharpen my skill

How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?
Usually, I will spend for about one hour during the day to finish my lesson on the technique of the week. For example, if I want to learn on picking for this week, I will watch videos from my online course first and while watching it,  I will try to do it. Later, at night which is usually I spend 2-3 hours for more practise via the same video and youtube.

As I am more attracted to learn my own songs, I will practise at night and repeat the whole song until I get everything right.

So, for one day, I will spend 3-5 hours per day for practise, with one day rest

Your plan for next week (Week 4)
Learn about strumming pattern 3/4 for one day and the rest of the day will be spend on revising every chords, and picking since I am weak on that part.

During my third week of elective posting , I have done reading on all the materials on agriculture and farming online . It was very informative . During my visit to the farms , I observe them plucking the vegetables . They taught me about the types of vegetables and the farming process. This week , they also taught me about the irrigation, weeding and harvesting the plants. Farmers need to know the critical time for irrigation , the amount of water to be given to the plants and also the frequency of irrigation. Weeding is necessary because weeds compete with main crop plant for the different factors such as water, sunlight, nutrients and space and hence affect plant growth. Harvesting can be separated into three steps. The plant part of interest must be identified, detached from the rest of the plant, and then collected in a container suitable for transport from the field.

Each step is crucial in farming . From this project , I learnt that having more biodiversity results in healthier soil, less erosion, better water conservation, and healthier pollinators. This is all good news for the environment as a whole, making agriculture an important part of the cycle of life.

Having more biodiversity results in healthier soil, less erosion, better water conservation, and healthier pollinators. This is all good news for the environment as a whole, making agriculture an important part of the cycle of life.

One good thing that i did was learning and discovering new things . I would have chose some easy online courses instead of learning agriculture , but my passion towards learning new things have made me to do my project on agriculture.

However this project is not easy because i had to do some field work in order to achieve my project goal . Due to the pandemic , I couldn’t visit the farm frequently to learn. I had to visit only twice a week to learn . This will limit my experience.

I would describe my project as productive and exciting .

2. Your progress so far
So far, I did a good progress for the past 3 weeks. Every now and then, I would update my accounts on every social media I have including Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp story. My updates were not constricted to one subject only, but inclusive of diversity of knowledge. Besides focusing on the knowledge of property investment, at times I would add inspirational quotes as a motivation for myself surely, but maybe for others who followed my updates as well. The main target of updating my social media was to spread property investment knowledge and financial awareness so that many know the importance of investing our savings.

3. Your feelings and thoughts
I felt glad to have reached thus far. To be honest of myself, I really didn’t think I could have been this level of steadfast. I’d never imagined myself keep updating posts and stories every single day. My initial intention was to advertise, but as time went by, my intention changed to sincerely let others become aware of the fundamental of property investment.

4. How did you learn and apply the skill of decision making in your EP journey?
Decision making in property investment is basically a hard thing to do. If we were to buy a house, we would think long before finally reach to a decision to sign the agreement of buying house called Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA). But when I learn throughout this EP journey, I gained countless knowledge and understood others’ experiences got scammed in buying their first house. Nevertheless, with the right knowledge, mentor and platform, we would be able to ease the process of 5-years decision making to 5-minutes long only. Of course, there is risk in property investment, which is the risk of loss. In our daily routine, we are vulnerable to risks actually, for example the risk of walking is tumbling. But with knowledge, one would know how to mitigate the risk in property investment. In property investment, those who fear risk but know how to mitigate it, become millionaires, some become billionaires.

5. How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?
Managing time wouldn’t be difficult if you know how to separate the priorities. Therefore, how I did was by preparing a content writing the night before, so that on the day after that, I could update it on my social media instantly. Then, it wouldn’t bother me for my virtual class and daily routine.

6. Your plan for next week (Week 4)
For the final week, I planned to be more steadfast as I was in updating my social media to keep spreading knowledge and gained more targeted audience, who is basically among those who are looking for a house but have no capital and wanting to earn 4- to 5-figure income through property investment.

2. My progress so far regarding the business is good since we have finally starting to gain profits from our items. We have also decided to promote our page more consistently by posting at least 3 videos each week. This way, we would attain more viewers. Recently, we have shipped the orders out to our customers and they were satisfied with it. We are currently figuring out how to expand our business more. After some discussion, we came up with different ideas. Some of the ideas were making customizable bags and stickers, scented candles and anime t-shirts.

3. I was very delighted since all our customers were satisfied with the products. I also had fun designing some stickers as our next saleable items. Of course, I had to try and error into finding a certain style for the sticker that would gain interest from the public.

4. Decision making is indeed important in managing a business. We needed to be meticulous to make sure we are able to gain profits and avoid misspend. In order to achieve that, we had surveyed various websites and pages to determine our product's value and create a plan on how to advertise our products. After a thorough discussion with each member, only then we are able to proceed with the next step.

5. Managing my time during this semester break was easy enough as I had much free time. Plus, it is something I enjoy doing hence I do not consider it as a burden rather, a hobby during this break. However, I do allocate my time for EP, usually, at night so I do not impose on my other tasks.

6. My plan for week 4 is to continue working on the designs for the stickers and publish more videos. We also need to hold a brief meeting to talk through our progress so far.

2.  Your progress so far.
Our progress so far In week 3 is way better than the previous week. From the previous meeting, we have been discussing on how to grow our page on social media.  We actually make it happen, we posted about 3 videos for each week. Since our team consist of 3 people, so everyone was responsible for making one and posted the video for each week. Posting video content is one of the strategies of soft-selling instead of hard selling. In that way, if they are interested in our content video they will come and visit our page. At the same time they can see our products as well . We also have been discussing of selling new stuff, we come out with few ideas like selling t-shirt, scented candles, bags, and customize stickers.

3 . Your feeling and thoughts
I feel very happy and excited since we got more orders than before and most of our posted videos viewed by 800++ people reaching the number of followers we have. I think this is a great opportunity for me and our team to keep doing this and maybe we can make our elective posting business into a real business owner.

4. How did you learn and apply skills of decision makings in your EP journey
To be honest, decision-making is the crucial key in business. We need to plan on what stuff we need to sell, survey on a different website in terms of comparing the price and quality. After thorough research, we will discuss with team members what items are best to sell. At the same time, we are careful in terms of financing to make sure we can gain more profit and prevent misspending and losing. Decision-making also applies in posting the video on social media. We need to decide on what is the best time to post since if we post a video at the peak hour it will increase possibilities for more viewers to watch and more people to visit our page.

5. How did your manage your time throughout this EP journey
For me doing this EP project during semester break is not really tough because we have more free time than usual. But having a lot of free time can be a reason for you to procrastinate more and delaying work. Fortunately, this EP project teach me to be more disciplined in doing the job that I have been assigned. I usually allocated about 2 hours at least every day in the morning to settle any task regarding order customers and editing videos to post on our social media. I choose morning to do my activities since I’m really efficient during day time.

6. Your plan for next week (week 4)
My plan for week 4 is to continue selling our remaining enamel pins that only just a few left. We will post more video content purposely for our soft selling and personal branding. Beside, we are working on our next project which is the customize stickers. We will be working on the design that we can come out with. We also will have a meeting with team members to discuss our progress so far in terms of marketing, financial and etc.

2. Your progress so far

In week 3, I had opened a small business account in Shopee called @kireicreatures to sell out my remaining paintings at a low price. Right now, no one buys it yet but it is going great! From then on, I learned that there's a seller site in Shopee and attended a brief course on how to sell in Shopee. Besides, I had painted 4 custom paintings for my clients (Sea Turtle, Divine Horse, Mushu, and Good Bois) and it turned out above my expectations. I even got a client from Eastern Malaysia and as far as the U.K. I always post my timelapse of my paintings on Instagram to attract more viewers and more custom paintings.

3. Your feelings and thoughts
I felt so happy and appreciative because I had gotten more clients to compare to before. I presume that I will only get at most 1 client each week but now I got my hands full. Also, I gained quite an ample profit at the same time my paintings fulfilled my free time productively. :)

4. How did you learn and apply the skill of decision-making in your EP journey?
I get to apply my decision-making skills by planning ahead on which paintings to prioritize first as some paintings needed to be done first to be delivered on time. Besides, it was challenging at first to decide on the colors of my painting as my colors were limited to the colors I already have from previous "DIY Painting by numbers". (Yes, I did not buy any paint colors and brushes so that I can boost my profit XD). Buying canvas online also requires decision-making skills as it needs deep research and review reading to get the best quality of the canvas.

5. How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?
I usually put up a goal to be done instead of managing my time each day because it is more motivating to do so. I usually takes my time drawing a painting per day (it could be any time of the day) and the following day would be editing my timelapse video of it and posting it on Instagram. I always free my weekends time as rest days.

8. Your plan for next week (Week 4)
My plan for Week 4 would also continue on painting the seven commissions I received. I will also continue promoting my business account in Shopee and Instagram as well as paint another my own creativity painting to be sold off.

2.     Your progress so far

3.     Your feelings and thoughts

Still interesting and determined to finish this course

4.     How did you learn and apply the skill of decision making in your EP journey?

Since this is my semester break and I am on my relaxing mood, I am little lazy and it is difficult for me to be consistent in finishing my course. However I do know that this EP is very important and I must complete it before the deadline. I chose this course because I always wanted to know more regarding this topic. Thus, I should make use of this opportunity and time well. I should stop procrastinating and make sure I finish this course and gain knowledge regarding this topic.

5.     How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?

I allocated minimum around 2 hour each day. Once I finish a subtopic I will complete the quizzes as well. If that particular subtopic is interesting than I will continue watching the next lectures. Thus, I will take break the next day. If I was busy and unable to complete my task for that day, I will make sure I spend more time the next following day.

6.     Plan for next week (Week 4)

I should finish watching the remaining leactures and complete the quizzes as well as grading test.

My progress
I have started to collect customer orders using Google Doc. I did a photoshoot session for advertising and promoting my product. I also spent my time editing the pictures and videos. I stay active on social medias by posting about my products to reach my target customers and keep them updated.

My feelings and thoughts
I had so much fun doing photoshoot session and promoting my product. It feels like my brand is one step forward to become like others top brand. I am so happy to get positive feedback and comments from my friends.

How did you learn and apply the skill of decision making in your EP journey?
In business, decision making is an important aspect. Every choice leads to it consequences. Therefore, I need to analyse and ask expert for every decision making. From deciding the theme of the video until set the margin of business, every decision is important. I also learned from many successful local brands on how they start up their business through their interviews and articles.

How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?
Before I started this week, I already planned ahead and set a dateline for every activity that need to be done. This is because I need to deal with other people so time management is really important therefore I try my best to finish my task before the dateline.

My plan for next week (Week 4)
Once I received the product from supplier, I will start packing and deliver the order to customers via cash on delivery (COD) or postage.

2. Your progress so far
By third week, I’ve tried a few recipe and finally came out with one recipe which is healthier. Although it is not my own recipe, but I have made a few modifications to the original recipe. The first modification is reduction of sugar. I tried the recipe without sugar. Definitely a healthier choice but not acceptable by everyone. So I decided to let my customer to choose the sugar level they prefer. I also reduced the usage of oil to lower the calorie level. During this week, I continued to promote the peanut butter on Instagram and I received several orders.

3. Your feelings and thoughts
I feel so happy because my hard work paid off. I am able to produce my own peanut butter in the end and will continue to improve on the recipe.

4. How did you learn and apply the skill of decision making in your EP journey?
The skill of decision making is applied in the beginning of the elective posting where I need to choose a topic for my elective posting. There are many suggestion and to make my my mind, it requires the skill of decision making.

5. How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?
My elective posting takes place during the semester break. I have plenty of time for elective posting so there is no much issue with time management. Time is well allocated for elective posting.

8. Your plan for next week (Week 4)
My plan for next week (week 4) is to continue promoting my peanut butter in Insatgram and start delivering to the peanut butter on the estimated date. During MCO period, to maintain social distance, we only provide contactless delivery.

2. Your progress so far

In week 3, I have improved in terms of marketing, logo, and name making. Next, I have also beautified and updated social media with interesting pictures. Not only that, I also do cash on delivery (COD) to customers who place orders.

3. Your feelings and thoughts

Very happy and satisfied with the previous effort and hard work on learning the tricks and arts in business.

4. How did you learn and apply the skill of decision-making in your EP journey?

In my project, determining the quantity of products ordered is one of the challenges for me because if I make a mistake or do not follow the set plan I maybe will incur losses. not only that, determining the selling price and the capital price is also one of the things that need to be stressed so as not to suffer losses. from that thing, I learned to make good decisions overall.

5. How did you manage your time throughout this EP journey?

In terms of time management, I have limited my time to do projects and also spend my time having as much fun as possible.

6. Your plan for next week (Week 4)

My plan for week 4 is I will correct the lack of feedback given from customers and also the quality given. Next, I will make a comprehensive financial calculation to examine the profits and losses of the project.
