Last Week Preview

As expected, I spent most of my time in the labs again.

My 1st PCB board isn’t that satisfying – there’re a lot of small disconnections, which have to be re-connected manually by using the soldering iron. This happened due to my inexperienced first-time PCB fabrication, can’t expect much from me, right?!

So, I decided to fabricate another PCB. This time around, the lab technician was annoyed and lazy (I’m telling nothing but the truth *cross ma heart muahahhahahaha*) already.
He asked us to “sek ji kei” a.k.a. EAT OURSELVES!!

He helped us to laminate our PCBs (there’re a few of us, including a final year student) and we were on our own from there onwards. Then, he just went “kai kai”. We proceeded with the UV light – placing a layer of photoresist on our PCBs. We’re troubled by how many seconds we should put for the photoresist thingy :”> *maklumlah kan?*

Next, we went on with the Developer Tank and the Etcher Tank. These 2 processes required a lot of attention and patient. We had to keep on “nurturing” our PCBs from time to time, worrying that the PCBs might over-develop or over-etch. If either of this happens, then the PCBs are declared KO already! Which means -- you have to START EVERYTHING all over again! Gosh, imagine that *head spinning with full kinetic energy*

Fortunately we didn’t blow up the two tanks *giggles heeheeheeheee* It contains some acidity chemical substances, don't play play!

Finally, we’re ready for the Stripper process to remove the photoresist on our PCBs. We just throw our PCBs into the Stripper Tank and went for lunch. Oops, not that we didn’t care about it anymore, but this last process took time. So, be patient lah, go have a cup of coffee or something lah!

Went to get my PCB at the afternoon. Although it still has some “weaknesses”, nevertheless I’ll “sayang” it with all my heart, just like my own child (but hey I have no child okay :)))

How I “sayang” it? I drilled holes on it…to put components’ legs mah, hehe. Then I solder it under an extremely hot temperature. No abuse here.

At last, my Infrared MODEM was born! There’s too many sweet & sour in the producing of this MODEM, which I could only cried it to myself :((

Now…The time for Basic Law midterm came – 26 August 2005 (last Friday).

After the test, we’re in to the PCB evaluation today (Monday) afternoon, followed by the Intro to Power System midterm just now.

Luckily my PCB can work *whew* However, I was very disappointed with the test just now. None of the question which I’m 100% sure knows how to do.

But, now I have to look forward – tomorrow I got a morning lab session. Next, there’s a very stressful assignment to be submitted on coming Friday, while another due on coming Monday.

K lah, I’ve blurted out briefly the “4 seasons’ tastes” I’ve gone through all these while --- sweet, sour, spicy, salty…

It must have been an awfully “delicious” meal! Wana get some try?? ;;)

I moved to lab(s)

Some brief fresh back about this whole week:

Monday afternoon 2-5pm -- went to Project Lab 1 for Mini Project, as usual.

Tuesday morning 9-12noon -- DTL1 at Telecommunications Lab

Tuesday afternoon 2pm onwards -- heading to PCB lab to fabricate the PCB; waited there doing nothing until at about 4pm. Guess what?! The lab technician brought us great news -> COME TOMORROW, coz he can’t handle so many “businesses” at one time. Feeling a bit annoyed.

Wednesday morning 9am onwards -- sit patiently inside the PCB lab until 10:15am for our turn to start fabricating our PCB. Can’t complain!

Wednesday 2pm -- went to PCB lab again to get our ready-PCB. Didn’t get the chance to drill though.

Thursday 9am -- Again, crawled tiredly to PCB lab for PCB holes drilling. Waited until 10 something still didn’t get a touch on the drilling machine, what an irony!! Aggravated and left the lab.

Thursday 2-4:30pm -- EPM1 at Energy System Lab.

Friday 9-12noon -- went for Mini Project at Project Lab 1, as usual, again.

I’ve already moved my bed and my pillows to the lab.
Ohh, my home my dear lab(s) *puke blood*

Darn, this is a so freaking ill experience of spending my whole week in the labs.
Bitting nails…*labs phobia*

Guess this horrible thing close the curtain here? I can assure you it’s a no no no!

I can foresee that – my next week will be spent in the labs as well.

Curse’em…

Acquitted

Finally…

We are freed from the “Prison of Haze” in Cyberjaya, thanks to the mercy of the WIND that blows it away.

The wind is definitely a fair “judge” that know we’re innocent and we don’t deserved all those haze. Thus, his Honour decided to do us justice.

Although the initial intention is to pray for the rain, but instead came the almighty wind! But who cares?! The objective is identical – chase away the “intruder from Indonesia” – HAZE!! *punch punch*

Wow, fresh air, fresh air…outside my windows *deep deep breaths greedily*

It feels so good! Never better in fact ;)

P/s:
An interesting site to view more photos of haze contributed by Malaysians www.hazeinmy.blogspot.com

Haze Updates

Putrajaya recorded an Air Pollution Index of 224 at noon today, and 337 at 5pm. The situation is so worse that the visibility is very very poor, and we have to breathe in the smoke and haze, not oxygen.

Click for Air Pollution Index nation wide by TheSTAR online

This virtually brings me back to many years ago, 1997, in Kuching. That time Kuching was experiencing the Air Pollution Index of 600 over, and the residents were nearly evacuated. I was in Form1 then, the school was closed for one week. I can remember vaguely that when I looked out from my house, it was like the clouds had landed on the earth, the surrounding was all white, hardly saw anything.


Oh ya, our University’s President issued this announcement this evening:

Leave for Cyberjaya Campus

Assalamualaikum/Good Day,

Dear VPs/Deans,

This is to inform that I am declaring the Cyberjaya Campus to be closed for two days (11th & 12th August 2005) because of the worsening haze condition. The API index is now 197, 3 points below the critical level. The unhealthy level is 100-200. Above 200 is critical. All staff and students are hereby given leave for the 2 days.

The Melaka Campus shall operate normally.

Kindly take note.


This news goes around the whole campus with a speed of light; forwarded messages in YM were unstoppable.
We’re discussing whether our Communication Networks’ midterm test on today 8-9pm was cancelled or not, until the coordinator of the subject posted a message:

By: XXX Date Posted: 10-08-2005

Midterm Exam : Midterm exam tonight is still ON!!!!!



I bet he was getting mad at those emails that flooded his mail box and non-stop calls that bombing his office at that instant :p Poor thing, he must be very busy answering questions then.

After the test, we came back and found out that all midterm exams which fall on these 2 days were postponed. It means -- our Introduction to Power System’s midterm on 11th August & Basic Law’s midterm on 12th August were procrastinated to latter dates.

Starting from tomorrow until Sunday, I’ll have 4 days holidays.
Hopefully the haze won’t get worsen any further, coz it’s really unbearable!

Involuntary Suicide

Lately Cyberjaya is being loved by the irresistible hazeeeeee!
Ya right, lovely…

WHy irresistible?? Simply bcoz we can’t sweep it away b-( Super-duper-darn stupid “intruder” hhpfffff >:p

This brother haze is causing the surrounding seems like full of fog. You know, just like in Genting. In fact, it’s smoke that can kill. It affects our breathing system, making us prone to running nose. My eyes even felt pain, thanks to the haze that is filling each and every centimeter, milimeter, micrometer (you name it) areas in Cyberjaya.

I bet if we X-ray our lung, it’ll look like a piece of charcoal inside our body, hehe…

Some more, the temperature is extremely HOT…See, we have to bear with the smoky air, the hot days & nights, the tons of exams & assignments, the boring lectures, the foods…Ahhh, I lost count.

The haze is killing us slowly. Involuntarily. So, please don’t be surprised if you bump into news saying “Cyberjaya’s resident(s) died of sucking-in excessive amount of HAZE”.

Beware! The silent irresistible killer is hunting around *evil devil grin*

Midnight...

The rain is pouring fiercely right now. I can see it hits the windows without any mercy, in front of me. It seems like trying to find a path to storm into my room and destructs things as it likes.

Hmmm…

Why am I talking about raining? Have no idea, really!

Oh shit!! I see my clothes being hit by the rain. Guess I’ve chose the wrong time to wash it. Well, I can do nothing. Will let the sun do his job tomorrow.

Why sun is a “he”?? Perhaps it’s due to the powerful bright sunshine that similar to the characteristic of a man :>

Then I suppose the moon is a “she”, best suits her soft and sweet moonlight ;) Just like an irresistible charismatic woman.

Hey Flo!! What are you doing? You’re supposed to be studying! (am shouting to myself)
Ohh, forgive me please :-S Have lost interest in the notes.
Excuses! [-X Now shoo back to notes!
Alright alright, as you wish My Lady.

What are you laughing there? Get back to work [-(

>:p hehe just kidding. Peace! :-”

Integration of Events

Many incidents happened lately, don’t know where to start. Though I have a lot of thinking in my mind, but I just couldn’t find the “strength” to write. Nevermind, here we go…(the events are not in order)

Some time ago, I found a funny video in a blog --- a video which cast by three MMU students, with the Numa-numa song and dance. A few days ago me and my friends finally saw one of the Numa-numa guy in the campus. I first noted his face which looks familiar. I told my friends something like this --- “Look, is he the guy in the Numa-numa video?” (in Mandarin, quite loud some more) and we all just stared at him until he looked very paiseh. Don’t know for what reason we all naturally thought that he is Malay, probably due to his darker complexion. The next day, I met him again, and he was speaking Chinese dialect :O *shock* This time I’m the one who felt extraordinary (just exaggerating) paiseh :”> *blush blush* But, after all we're just admiring their creativity in that video, no offense done *shrug*

We, five girls rented a car to go out. Ying Xuan drove us to our first destination – The Mines. Ying Xuan, Hanni and I cut our hair at the Express Cut. Not much change to Hanni’s hair, mine were a lot shorter, while Ying Xuan looks younger :))

Next, we proceeded to Alamanda. This time, Swee Won was driving, as agreed by all of us before that we took turn to drive. Swee Won and Ming Yih cut their hair while the three of us wandering around :p Not much change to Swee Won’s hair as well, but Ming Yih experienced a vast change – she looks cute, especially when she’s smiling naughtily *nothing really naughty lah* wahahhahaha >:)

I’m the one who drove back to Cyberjaya. At the Exit, the car is too far from the ticket’s machine, so I had to open the door to insert it. I forgot to put to free gear while letting go the clutch pedal --- the car engine off with the car seemed like fly to the front. This caused the first wave of shock to the girls :)) Then, everything went smoothly until I reached a junction where I’m supposed to go straight and wait at the traffic light and turn right. But at first I tried to turn left, then they quickly said “straight straight straight. So I moved straight and for god sake I didn’t notice the RED light!! I could only heard Ying Xuan, Ming Yih and Hanni who sit behind shouted “STOP! RED LIGHT!” I braked in a sudden and due to inertia, the three of them were swing to the front and back. This caused the second wave of shock! Ehehehhehehe :”> Please forgive this inexperience two months licensed driver on the road :p

I better stop here. Gonna have Digital Telephony’s midterm this coming Thurs (28 July) and going back home for one week midterm break.

Bye bye and Good Night!

Tired

Suddenly, I feel the interaction between human is very tiring.

It’s impossible to know exactly what others are thinking.

It feels like psychological tug-of-wars between humans. I feel tired in my heart and my mind *sigh* Disappointed.

Sometimes how I wish I can ignore every little thing in this world and do whatsoever that is in my mind. But, life…what a life!

Is this gonna continue? Have no idea when I’ll lose my faith.

乌龙's Continuum

On Tuesday, after we (Francis, Won & I) collected the certificates from MBR, we went for lunner (lunch + dinner) at McD.

I ordered a RM6.83 meal, and paid RM50.83 to the cashier. After getting my meal, I chit-chatted a while with both Francis & Won at the counter. Then I proceeded to sit down and enjoy my burger.

Suddenly, Francis walked over towards me (laughing with choke) and handed me RM44.

OMG!

I DARE to FORGOT my money change!

Next time do join me for meals, perhaps you’ll earn extra money easily *giggles*
No joke!

乌龙 乌龙 乌龙

Last Wednesday, I did a hilarious thingy.

I saw the lecturer and some friends of mine inside the class, thus without thinking twice, I stormed in. Yes, without any hesitation! I noticed strange “air” while I’m walking in, everyone was looking at me, as if I’m an alien. Mentally it’s true I guess, since my mind floated away to outer space.

I ignored it and walked straight to the behind. Found a corner seat for myself and sit down. By now, I already realized that I’ve entered the class before mine. Gosh!!

Well, I don’t want to add more attention (more to embarrassment *blushing*) by walking out, I decided to just sit there.

Lucky me the lecturer didn’t sweep me out for interrupting her teaching *whew*
Instead, she ended her class in the next second.

My friends all laughed at my blurriness, or stupidity?

“Flo flo, your class ended d right? Why you’re still here?”
“Wow, I’m amused by your bravery.”
“There’re many ppl waiting outside, you didn’t notice meh?”
“You’re so hardworking lah, attend the class twice.”


Every sentence was accompanied by laughter.
Well, guess I’m potentially the next Jim Carrey?!

I just hope that I won’t have phobia attending this subject’s classes ever since this incident.

Oh, I’m incurable乌龙!

So Long

Aloha! I’m once again back in the blogosphere .

Exams.

Holidays, a long one. As usual, eat-sleep-TV-eat-sleep-TV…infinitely.

Just got my driving license.

Semester break ended. Back to campus.

Attend lectures, re-burry in notes/books, prepare for a real super-duper busy semester.

Going to do a mini project, constructing Low-Cost-Infrared-Wireless-Modem. For the understanding of the circuits’ flow and every function of the circuit parts, we, have no choice, but to re-find, re-read, and re-study the Electronics book that we took for granted during our first year studies #_#

Now, I’m blogging. I know you know it.

Chaoz for the moment. Continue other time.

Long live…long life…live long! Yeah!!

Shut up!!

Guys, pls shut up will ya?

Talking non-stop in library is totally disrespectful to the others. Keep on po pek po pek like there’s no tomorrow to talk again. Pls find other places should you really can’t control your mouths, or do sth else to distract yourselves. Chew your books/notes?

Else, I suggest the library management to implement these actions:

Firstly: Setup red spotlights above every seats, which can sense noise, like those lights in the high class residential areas. These spotlights have high electrons emission rates, which might kill some of the talkative cells when being shined upon. And, a hammer-like device will comes down and knock on the head of the noisy mouth. When guards notice certain someone is under the light, they shall come and usher him/her to the library entrance, and kick. Hehe, just kidding! Chase out only. Anyone who offended the red spotlights more than 3 times will be banned from entering the library for 1 month. While regular offenders shall be banned forever!

Secondly: Uses special punishment chairs, which are able to sense noise as well. When somebody is too noisy, the chair will automatically shoot up and the person will fly up, and down. You know, like projectile motion, up and down; may be we should accompany this incident with “Up and Down” from Vengaboys. The person might eventually bang his/her face on the table. Well, this incident is similar to the effects of being kicked by a horse when it does not allow someone to ride on it. Get what I mean? I bet anyone who tried this will never dare to offend the chairs again.

Thirdly: Change all the sign boards in the library from “Silence! & Index finger on mouth” to “Shut up! & show the Universal Recognized Finger” People will only behave when they see vulgar words and signs. They love it!

Meanwhile, when the red spotlights and chairs are punishing the talkative(s), others will be stunned and wouldn’t dare to let out any single bit of sound.

Silence. Peace. Tranquility. Comfy. Yeah, study!

Now, I feel better.


P/s: Met some non-stop talkers in library today.

The end of the MEAT?

In a restaurant, a waitress approaches a bunch of customers…

Waitress : Sir(s), may I place your order please?

Customer1 : Well, could you please recommend us some famous dishes?

Waitress : Would you like to try the Four Seasons Chicken?

Customer2 : Chicken? No no! You see, now the avian flu is spreading, better don’t eat. Dangerous ah.

Others nodded in agreement.

Waitress : Alright. How about BBQ Seafood?

Customer3 : What?! You want us to eat seafood? Are you nuts? Tsunami just over not long ago, hundreds of thousands corpses are floated on the sea. Don’t know those fishes, crabs and sotongs are safe for consumption or not.

Others : Yaloh yaloh.

Waitress : *A bit annoyed* Well, is Black Pepper Pork suits your taste?

Customer4 : NAh, we aren’t gonna eat that too. The JE (Japanese Encephalitis) disease is so scary. Can die one ah!

Others : Ya ohh.

Waitress : *Aggravated* Then would you all like to try Sizzling Cow?

Customer5 : No no no! In US ah, there’s mad cow disease. If we eat it, later we become like mad cow langgar here and there then how? You bayar ganti rugi kah?

Customer1 : So, any other food you can recommend?

Waitress : *Frustrated* YES! I recommend you all to 吃自己 a.k.a. eat yourselves! Banyak macam! *leave*

Customer 1,2,3,4 & 5 : *stunned* Mouths open wide enough to put in a watermelon.

Note: The magic words!

So, are we humans, gonna out of meat supplies someday? Since there are a number of meat-related-diseases emerge from time to time. Let’s pray for that day will never come!

Vengeance

On the night before my Data Communication final, I slept for 2 hours, only.

After the exam, I took 2 separate naps, in total 3 hours, only.

At night, I tried to study for Information Theory, but I can’t input much. Kept on feeling dizzy and little headache.

Eventually, went to bed at 11:30pm and woke up at 3pm today! Gosh, it’s 15 hours ++! Sleeping for revenge LOL

But think back, the total sleeping hours in 2 days are 20 hours. So, 20 hours/2 days = 10 hours/day. Quite normal isn’t it?

Replacing the sleeping hours for the day before on the day after is very common during exams weeks. Confused with what I’m saying? Nevermind. Just go to sleep and you will get enlighten, perhaps.

I always motivate myself with this sentence whenever I feel like going to sleep: “Keep on study, you can sleep kao kao after the exam.” Yeah!

Zhou Gong blesses us!


P/s: Being under pressured and can’t get enough of sleep for almost 2 weeks now, so I’m not really the ordinary me. Still a few more tense days to go, before I go to Melaka and then back hometown for 2 months holidays. Melaka pasar malam, dim sum, Jia Jia, RSU/BBU, VJN, Char Siew Fan, friends…I’m coming!!! Waahahhahahhaha…… Ohh yeah, not to forget Kolo mee and mama’s cooking *drooling*

Btw, did I lari tajuk? Don’t care.

Assignment gone?!

Yesterday night,

Notice posted in mmls (Multimedia Learning System):
Assignment - Urgent : We didn't receive the assignment from the following students: 10111xxxxx; 10311xxxxx; 10211xxxxx; 10211xxxxx; 10311xxxxx; 10102xxxxx; 10211xxxxx. Pls. come and meet the lecturer ASAP!!
*last 5 digits sealed for confidentiality, ahah*

I was so LUCKY to be one of those students. Kena loteri also not so cun. :-L Oh ya, Won also as “lucky” as me ;)) Wonder why the both of us always boarding the same ship har? Anyway, two people scared together at least are better than scared alone :))

The disastrous news made me lost my “appetites” to study immediately. Scared, frustrated, angry, worried, anxious…basically everything rojak together in my poor “boom” brain.

15 marks and I get an egg (0%), after a long-exhausted sleepless night struggling to finish it?? Anything else worse than this? I just had a sudden urge to go kick the lecturers, ehem *pardon me please, thank you*

This early morning I went to meet the lecturer with Won. Before that, we actually went to double check the lecturer’s pigeon hole, to ensure that we didn’t drop our assignments into the wrong hole *grin*. Yeah, may be we just so happened to be “kok-eyed” and dropped it wrongly *lalallallalallaala*.

Inside the lecturer’s office:

Me: Sir, we came regarding our assignments.

Sir: What is your ID number?

Won: bla bla bla and bla bla bla.

Sir: Ohh, your assignments have been found. Prof so-and-so has just email me 1 minute ago saying that.

We: Wooooooooooooooove!! *totally relieved* Luckily *Pat pat our fragile hearts*. Thank you so much sir! We were very worried until just now.

Sir: No worries, no worries. As long as you did the assignments according to the standard, the marks should be no problem.

Won: I can’t study last night *showing the kolian face*.

Me: Yeah, and I can’t sleep *a bit exaggerated to pok tong qing*.

Sir: *Laughing until his head fall in between his ankles, no kidding* Hahahaha…don’t worry. Just focus on your finals. Your assignment marks will be uploaded later.

We: Thank you sir! Bye bye sir.


P/s to lecturers: Next time please check thoroughly-wholly-completely-error freely, then only proceed to the last resort of announcing the thunderstruck news. It might cause us heart attacks you know?!

What a belated-April-Fool’s joke!

April Fool's huh??

A so called April Fool’s joke sent to my handphone had actually woke me up from my nap, before my alarm rang *frustrated* What a joke?! I don’t feel funny at all.

I felt tired (body & mind), therefore I sleep to have a clearer mind, so that I can concentrate in my studies. And this sms just happened to spoil everything! My sleep, my mood, my mind…

Happy April Fool’s day?? Really fool! Now that you’ve been succeeded in causing all those fusses, are you happy now? *referring to “my friend”* Although “my friend” might never get the chance to visit my blog, but just wrote this as a channel to release my dissatisfaction.

A prank that can cause the victim to laugh their head off is a good prank. Otherwise, it’s just a fool lame joke. Please don’t torture others with the stupid jokes, instead please keep it to yourself and enjoy yourself.

Everyday can be an April Fool’s day, as long as the timing you choose is appropriate. Never ever pull your friends’ leg when they’re having problems, busy with something important, emotional swings etc. Else, your friend(s) might get irritated and annoyed. Just like in my own case.

Pissed / Peace off! Stay away from me. *Pardon me*

A Con

Simple Random Walk

How would you decipher the above three words?

Before that, interpretations from Oxford Advanced Learning’s Dictionary:
Simple – easily done or understood; not causing difficulty

Random – done, chosen, etc without method or conscious choice

Walk 1 – (of a person) to move along at a slow or moderate pace by lifting up and putting down each foot in turn

Walk 2 – a journey on foot, esp for pleasure or exercise

Combined: a journey on foot for pleasure which was done easily and without conscious

#1 Words uttered by macho travelers who leaved their foot steps everywhere around the world?

#2 Words uttered by elderly who love to stroll in a park?

#3 Words uttered by couples who walk romantically hand in hand on the streets at the middle of the night/in the rain?

NO for #1.

NO again for #2.

And, NO AGAIN for #3.

Then? What in the earth is it?

For your information, it’s a MATHEMATICAL TERM in StOchAstic Processes in Engineering MAths *SUrpRise*

Explanation: Let Xn be a random variable denoting the position at time n of a moving particle (n=0,1,2,3,…). The particle will move around the integer {…,-2,-1,0,1,2,…}. For every single point of the time, there is a jump of one step for the particle with probability 1/2 (a jump could be upwards or downwards). Those jumps at time n=1,2,3,… are being independent. This process is called Simple Random Walk.

P/s: Posting this out of boredom for the 106 pages of notes, which seems like I’m never gonna finish studying until eternity. Just trying to trigger your brain cells *devil evil grin, blekkk*

Earthquake

The moment (approximately 12:13am)

I was sitting at my chair (both feet on the ground) when I felt the earth tremors. I thought I was having some kind of headache and dizziness, as I was just waking up from my nap.

I then looked at my roommates (kf & cyn), they also looked at me, three of us with the blank look *what happened?*

Kf then told me that she also thought that she had have some “head spinning” because of overdose use of brain power.

Cyn told us that she thought either one of us was shaking her chair (both her feet on chair) violently in order to call her.

But, apparently our room was shaking. I can felt as if I was boarding a board or ship. The shakiness was so obvious. And at that moment, all of us were like throwing our final exams to the back of our brain --- the hottest thing is the Earthquake!

My neighbour told me that her roommate’s monitor was “trembling” as well.

Consequences afterwards

News came that Northern Sumatera was hit by an Earthquake of magnitude 8.2

There were about 1000++ casualties reported.

Most states in Peninsular felt the tremors.

I’ve called my mom back in Sarawak, but she felt nothing. Probably her sweet dreams covered everything.

Residents of high-rise buildings were evacuated. For instance, Cyberia condos which were accommodated by majority of MMU students.

More news:
Preliminary Earthquake Report
Map of Earthquake locations
Earthquakes from around the World
Strong Quake Hits Indonesia Coast

A prediction that another Tsunami is on its way *nail-biting* gagagaga

Shit! I felt the earth shakes again at 3:32am. *scare*
I wasn’t dreaming…


P/s: This post initially should be at 3:05am, but procrastinated due to “kanasai” network connection.

Course Registration WAR

26th March 2005 --- a beautiful Saturday --- the day for Gamma Engineering students to do pre-course registration for next semester’s subjects.

I purposely crawled up from my darling bed at 8:35am, as the registration was opened at 9am. Early birdies get the worms; early students get the sui sui (beautiful) time table! *giggles*

Waiting eagerly in front of my monitor and trying n-times to login, wanna be the first as the network always get congested during registration period. Managed to login at 9am past 1 or 2 minutes, and zoomed to register for Mini Project first. This subject only open to 100 students :-S

Proceeded with other subjects, but failed to registered :-& *frustrated*

Sentences that kept on coming out from my mouth:

“Arggghhhhh….why cannot register one?”


“Ahhhh…got d got d, hahahhahahha!”

“Why I haven’t choose the tutorial class but I got it d??” “Wahahaha, this system so good one :))” *blur*

“Why this stupid network so lag one? :-L Always cannot find server. Grrrrrrr!!”

“Cannot register ahhh!!! The tutorial class full d. :(”

And the list goes on…

I’m not mumbling to myself, k?! I’m complaining to both my roommates :))
One of them was wondering why I woke up so early, this isn’t the usual me. I always sleep with unbounded time limit, and this was a raining Saturday morning, the bed is so cozy to sleep *huggies* But today was pre-course registration! You see, if i get a good schedule, it certainly promises lots of good time sleeps on next semester *grin* Yo lookahead man, lookahead!


A special thanks to Francis
a.k.a. fancheong for helping me to register a few of my subjects. He’s the one that helped me to choose the tutorial class :p Not the “superb” system! ^:)^ *bow bow* Arigatou Gazaimasta!

Most of us get the time table that we desired. Hooray! Hopefully it will go as smooth as abalone *copyrighted by Swee Won
a.k.a. 15 pig pig :p* for our more to come registrations on each successive semester.
