My Story

Wow...time sure passes quickly. Blink of an eye and we're already halfway thru the first part of the first semester. In these weeks I have been busy rushing for my EE2001 mini project, leaving every other module aside. After I'm done with the project, I realise that it's pretty straighforward actually. Cos most header files and functions are already provided so what is left for us to do is figure out the logic and read the datasheets to find out how to connect the hardware together. But after do it u'll feel like u've accomplished something although with help and hints but hey at least it was ur hard work and sweat and blood...oops no blood no blood... Oh btw I had 2 mini attempts to burn down the lab but I didn't manage to...unfortunately...urm I mean fortunately...

Besides EE2001, the UROP project has also been occupying a big part of my time. If I'm not in EE2001 lab I'm probably in the UROP lab (during daytime la). The UROP project is getting more interesting now that we've all settled down to distribute tasks and work on it. My direct head, a Masters student is a very nice proactive guy who really loves to share his beliefs and passion for the work he's doing. Always encouraging us to js gain as much knowledge as possible. Which is what I hope to accomplish from this project. Our project is confidential so I can't disclose what we're doing. But, what I can say is I'm involved in the games team and am supposedly in charge of the sounds and graphics. Which is pretty cool haha...cos I managed to add sounds into the game and also used some music editor which makes me feel professional cos of the many buttons they have all over... :p UROP's getting interesting and I hope it'll stay that way or become more and more interesting...it's really a cool experience... and one more thing I can learn from it is documentation cos my head asks us to keep documentations on what we do from Day 1...whoops I haven't started yet...

School has started for a week already. I'm officially a third year student. I don't feel like it's a new academic year tho. Probably cos there's no freshies in my hall due to the renovations. Even when I go engin canteen for lunch I assume everyone are seniors. But I guess it's easy to detect some freshies cos never saw them b4... :p

Week 1 has been quite busy week. I dun appear busy. It's just that there's so many stuff to settle. Project ideas, printing notes, timetable scheduling...everything is not so obvious in third year. Pieces of each task is here and there and I need to organise it myself. I haven't got the urge to tho. I'm still in a holiday mood and dun feel like studying geesh. I gotta step up my gear soon... haih...

Back in hall, most of my gang is missing. SEP and shifted out. Feels so empty but luckily I've build up another gang during vacation. So, my meal gang is still pretty full. Lucky for me cos I just hate to have meals alone. In fact, I never have meals alone if noone else is having haha. Hall is half empty now since there's no freshies. But most of the people left are ppl u regularly see around anyway so there's not so much of a change.

Timetable in school ain't so packed yet. Mondays are free for me. But, having EE2001 project to do any free time will probably be spent in lab anyway. Also, I need to allocate some of my time for my UROP project. Hopefully, I'll be registered soon. Also hope that I'll be having a lot of fun and knowledge throughout the project. And who knows, if all goes well, I may be able to continue it for FYP as well haha. Thinking abit too far but o well.

I'm currently watching World Badminton Championships. Too bad M'sia lost all and din manage to enter semis. Disappointed but well I guess being M'sians we're used to it. At least they gave a good fight... Haha I'm really addicted to badminton aren't I...I follow almost every match there is... :p
