Day 247 Task – ICLCA2020 Day 2 – Presenting Another Paper

It’s the second day of ICLCA2020 conference. I have another paper that will be presented by my undergraduate student, Nasyitah Mahbob. Unfortunately she could not make it to standby for the question and answer session. Hence, I have to standby for the presentation and questions and answers. To cut short, everything was ok, nice and smooth. The questions were all answered by me, hopefully the people asking the questions are happy.

Day 235 Task – Updating ICLCA2020 Website

Today was the end of my brief trip with my family and parents. We arrived home nearly at 7 pm. By that time, I received a message to help update the ICLCA2020 website with some information regarding program book. Since I am the person in-charged of the website, I did handle it and publish that new piece of content effortless. I just imagine, if I don’t know how to update this, it will take hours figuring out. That’s separates people who knows and people who don’t. In this case, I know a bit about the new WP Divi Theme, although i struggled a lot last year, I managed to get better at this WP theme. There are still a lot to learn for this. There are still a lot to learn on other areas of discipline.

Day 186 Task – Final Check of my ICLCA2020 Manuscript Submission

Today is a wonderful Saturday. I have a list of tasks to do but it is quite difficult to work during a weekend break like today. But, I am trying my best to balance both relax and work.

Anyway, I have 2 manuscripts to be submitted for ICLCA but I haven’t yet completed checking both of it. Today, I will be doing just that. Earlier, I received an email about the publication of a manuscript for a PhD student that I currently co-supervise with Dr. Muhammad Tahir. The student, Sehar Taslim, successfully managed to publish her work in Journal of Alloy and Compounds. Click the link below to see and read the manuscript.
