Update again

Well, my life's been going past very slowly. Snail pace slow. Glacier slow. Continental drift slow. Hell, as crazy as this may sound, I kinda miss the lifestyle in high school, where we have test like almost every day. The rush, the excitement. I know I'm going to go nuts cause I'm actually suggesting more work is better, but hell... Life's been boring..

Embedded is being a bitch as usual. Funny thing though. My program didn't even work, but the lab demonstrator still gave me full mark. I was like... "Ooookkkkkkk, so what's the catch?" LOL! 9/10 (1 mark off cause I didn't do the bonus point question) but who's complaining? The guy beside me was like WTF! His program did almost the same thing as mine, but he got 4/10! LOL! Maybe the other lab demostrator is being a bitch or something.

CS2 is becoming hell weird. I feel like I'm back in MATH1010 or something. Back to fourier transform and stuff... LOL!! Got used to David's accent. Frequency = fruitsy... SIF!

Databases... Been very behind for my labs, cause when I try to run the script in my laptop, it keeps crashing. Damn SQL! Going to try it in uni like next week or something.

Vibrations is starting to get interesting, now that the intro parts are done. I should start reading the ebook and do the freaking assignment. Should should should..

Been to the tav quite a bit these few weeks. So "quite a bit" that I started to just put my passport in my bag, so when my friends just call me, I will just go. LOL! Don't drink much though. Yeah yeah. You guys can doubt that, but it's true.

The weather here is starting to get a bit cold. Pretty sure I coming down with something. Flu, fever, cold, something disgusting. Hope I will get better soon, if not I'll be so GGed when my parents come. LOL!

Anyway, gotta go to lecture now!

Ciaoz!

P/s: 5 Seconds Mourning for Desmond's wallet... ... ... ... ... Ok.. Mourning done! Now I'll continue lauging! :D Speeding fine wtf!

P/p/s: never make promises with lionel anymore, cause he just ends up standing you up!

P/p/p/s: Need more money. Anyone? Anyone?

Happy

Wow. I am so happy and relieved right now! Knowing I don't need to overload for 3 semesters really really really really * infinity times really happy!

As many of you might know, I'm changing from mechatronics to mechanical, so I have to sacrifice some units (so i thought).. Which means if I still want to finish in 5 years, I will need to freaking overload 3 units, not to mention the amount of money I have to pay... If I don't overload, I will be staying here for 1 more year, due to the units being sem 1 and sem 2 units.. There I thought, damn.,..
DOOM!

But something amazing happened.
After a talk with Dianne Hestermann, my course advisor, she said
I could possibly get some of my electrical units to count as my optional units,
since they are about engineering as well.
I was like: If that is even possible, I would be most grateful!
She said she will check with the head of school, and give me a reply asap.
Today, I received the most relieving email I will ever receive in my inbox:



Thanks Dr. hestermann.

Let's calculate the cost I saved:
Three units: 3 x 11000 = 33000AUD
1 AUD = RM2.45
33000 x 2.45 = RM80850
RM80850 = a lot a lot of money
a lot of money = food, drink, car, games, ps3, tv, .............. you get my idea

Sigh.. Relief much!

Parallel World


I believe in a parallel world.
In that world, the other me is hell awesome,

Wish I can go to that world, and not seeing this:

Sigh... Stupid embedded systems lab...

Update

This blog has been non-existent for quite a long time.. So long that even I myself forgot what my website is.

Been... Well.. Can't say I'm busy cause Lionel's will surely pick up a chair and throw at me if I said that. I have been getting involved in quite a few things lately - gym, basketball, badminton, tennis, studying, playing my card games, playing computer games, read manga, hanging out with friends, sleeping.... basically everything you can think about a uni student except clubbing.

I am a little behind in my studies, but nothing a enclosed session in the library study room won't get me through, so yeah... Still considered up-to-date i guess (A bit contradicting, I know, but i just type whatever comes through my mind).

Right now, I have reached to a point where i am seriously considering my career outcomes. Mechatronics... Back in malaysia, everyone just go:"What's mechatronics?" From what I have heard from ppl who graduated from mechatronics and trying to get a job in malaysia, the chances are you might as well go to the wall and try to beg for some money off it. Therefore....

I AM SWITCHING TO MECHANICAL/COMPUTER SCIENCE!

Big bomb! I am still keeping my computer science degree, cause it is starting to get interesting right now. Not that I don't like mechatronics! Oh yeah, I just loveeeeeeee Thomas Braunl and all hey! (Catch my sarcasm?) it's just that my career is on the line here and I don't want to jeopardise my career just because I don't want to change my old-fashioned mind...

Ohh wellz.. That's water under the bridge now.

Tennis.. how should I say this.... is legend- wait for it- dary!!! So fucking awesome! Wish i can play everyday, which I am unable to do... So different from badminton... It's awesome to get involved in a new sport. So much to learn, so little time to do it! Thanks Des and Nick!

Ok... Enough blogging for now.. I will try to update more often from now on, since I am on my computer whenever i'm home... So sad I know... Sigh... now off to playing badminton

Coming from Reid library, i say good day!

Back in Perth + Uni

Well, obviously I'm back in Perth already and uni has started for a week now. So what's my take on uni life this sem? Let''s see...

Databases: This unit looks hard, and there seems to be heaps of stuff to memorize. But at least the lecturer talks clearly and easy to understand. Hopefully can get good marks for this.

Embedded System: Well, Thomas is back. And I ain't loving it. Two hour lecture on a friday and being my only lecture? Not fun not fun...

Circuits: Funny lecture. David sure knows how to crack ppl up. Not the jokes he make, but the accent... LOL! Sure is funny when you listen carefully to what he says. Frequency = Fruity, Datum = Dum.

Signals: JPan tries to make jokes that are not funny, but he just stops talking to see who laughs. Stone is back!!! WHOOP! Love his lectures like usual. Thought he is retiring, but apparently no one wants to teach this unit, so he just comes back, in addition to play his favourite touch rugby!

Lectures are boring as usual. Been sleeping in some, skipped some, but who hasn't?

Miss my basketball and badminton, which I played quite often back in Kuching.. Sigh.. Those days.. Back here, I have to ask my friend to drive me home after badminton club session, which is crap btw, cause the floor is so fucking slippery! Man.. The number of time I almost fell down! Basketball.. Sigh.. Doubt I will be playing much, if any, this sem.

Hanging out with friends are still fun. Bbt-ing, conca's, and so on so forth. Lionel calling the new bar in Broadway "McLarens" is a bit unbearable, since we don't really drink there.. LOL.

Work as usual, trying to earn as much as I can. Sigh at the low pay and the long drives....

Nothing much happened, nothing interesting, as that is just how my boring life goes! lOl..

Back in Kuching

Well, I'm back in Kuching for exactly a week already. (For those in Perth who thinks I'm still in Perth, you're wasting your money trying to get in touch with me) So, let's recap what I have done so far in Kuching:

(1) Been swearing my head off about the stupid slow Internet here in Kuching. Got so used to the fast internet in Perth. Oh welz, you can't really ask much. My internet crashed due to technical problems for the first two days when I arrived, but luckily it's ok now.....

(2) Working with my dad at the hanger (not a coat hanger smart asses). Not so much working as in helping around with the small stuffs and gaining experiences about mechanical stuff within a helicopter. It's amazing how much mechanical parts are in a helicopter. Servicing it alone takes ages, and the amount of paperwork are just insane. Protocols and regulations and shit like that just appears out of nowhere. Hell, you can't even unscrew a nut if it is not in the book. LOL! Well, hopefully can get it done by next week, then I would be able to take some photos during the test flight! WHOOP!

(3) Sports sports and... Oh yeah, more sports! Been trying to keep to my "Exercising at least once a day" regime. So far, I am still able to keep up. Basketball, badminton, jogging, cycling (the indoor machine type)... Sometimes I even wake up at 6 to go jogging with my mum.. Big whoop *sarc...

(4) Ask anyone this question: What do you do when you come to Kuching? Answer: Eat! No explanation needed. I have been eating heaps, so that's probably why my weight hasn't change a bit, as Eating + Exercising = Weight gain +/- 1kg. True story. Here's a list of stuff I had eaten since I came back:
- Kueh Chap (my all time favourite)
- Laksa
- Mixed soup (with all the spare parts of cow and pig, hell good if cooked properly)
- Lok- lok.
- Kolo Mee
- Kam pua
- Chai Tau Kueh
- ABC (ais kacang, hmmm....)
- Mee Kuah.. Not so good anymore...
- Junk food!!!!!!!
- Many more others that I am too lazy to list out....

(5) Sweeping DVDs... Bought heaps of dvds the first day i came back.. Got a bit sick of watching them already.. Maybe I will take a break and have a life.. HAHA! Nah.. Just watching it sometimes at night..

(6) Hang out with frens.. To my dismay, there's very few of my frens in kuching atm.. Went to the movies with them (The day the world stood still... Ppl who hasn't watch this movie, don't! It wasted one hour fourty minutes of my life, which I will not be getting back.... T.T), and played some sports with Yang, Burn, CJ,XL, Xian Kun. Lionel's coming back today, so probably go out drinking with him.

Well, that's basiclaly what I did so far in my hols in Kuching.. Boring life, yeah yeah, blah blah blah...

Can't wait for CNY!!!

Cya ppl soon!
