so long nv blog le

wah really super long nv blog le. oh my god. cuz i really got no time. so this would be a super short entry.

been really busy with work. esp with my projects. ee2006 lab project still left with a report but should be ok. haven't done yet oops. cs2102 project at least i just sort of managed to finish my part. hmm, still rather not used to writing in php. hmm, but then it is a good learning experience. at least now i sort of know php le :)

work has made my schedule so tight that i dun have much time for my gf. hope she doesn't mind. but then it's considered quite good le, since we get to meet 4 days a week. hope to complete my cs2102 project by this coming week. then write my ee2006 lab report in the weekends, or even before that if i have the time.

sians, i think i super lag in ee2005. jialat, many tutorials haven't looked thru. lectures also not fully understand. this wk's assignment dunno how to do yet. jialat. so screwed. stupid projects. haiz... have to try to make everything back on track by this week. so that i can start revising on wk 12...

hmm, nothing to say but busy

super busy ah. so many things to do. so many things undone...

tutorials aside, i haven't been catching up on EE2005 for 4 lectures. i am only finishing 2 of these lectures...still got 2 more. still got the textbook to read... as for CS2102, EE2006, I also haven't been reading the textbooks. oh no...CS2102 still alrite, cuz i sort of have read them before. EE2006 ok lah, cuz i sort of understand the content, but i still have to read the textbook to clarify certain concepts.

got 2 projects. EE2006 D1A, need time to understand the design as well as implement it on the breadboard. CS2102's, abit headache, cuz have to use PHP to write, which i dun really know how. so just have to play around ba, also the zone thingy... have to get it going from next wk.

scored only 60 for EE2009's e-test. seems bad but many pple are scoring worse than me. but i am still not satisfied, cuz i was flipping my book for some easy questions. shouldn't be doing that if i am sure of the content. must do better in the next e-test which is around wk 12.

have to arrange for yl's bdae too. hmm... logistics problem is giving me some mental block. well, i must do something quick, in case i dun have time when the week starts.
maybe i shouldn't think so much about the logistics. just do whatever that i can do...

EE2006 lab test is coming wk 11, and this wk's lab session would be a warm up session for that. well, i think i should start to play more with VHDL soon.

ok enough of complaining. well, good progress between us. erm, though with some glitches due to my stupid mouth. but then, it makes me learn something, that is to think before speaking. think about how pple will feel if they hear what u say. not just think about karma...lols.

hmm, meeting up with ningyi they all this sunday evening. quite a long time nv meet these friends le. these friends are the ones who accompany me through the days in CO, so fun, so memorable. and also, not to forget the vietnam trip. hope there's one more soon. it's really the company that counts :)

okie, back to my studies le...

feeling bad

made her cry yesterday nite, didnt mean to do it, maybe she just cries too easily, but no matter what, it makes me feel bad.

just told her honestly some things that i felt, and it made both of us moody. well i sort of got over it after the sleep, but she didn't. although she says her eyes are painful which sort of causes her moodiness, yesterday's cry is the main cause. well, maybe i should be more tactful and nicer about it. maybe i shouldn't even tell her, but then it would be breaking my promise to tell her whenever i dun feel good.

guess i should learn to speak in a milder and nicer manner to her, in order not to make her feel sad. just bring across the message, can le. it has nv been a habit to tell pple how i feel, so i think i suck at this. well, i shall try to improve on it.

ok back to studies.

so freaking hot

wah super hot lah nowadays. really super hot lor. last time my hall room fan turn on to number 3 can le, now turn to full blast also hot lor. really cannot make it lor. this is the first time i am blogging about the stupid weather. believe everyone also agrees that the weather is getting very bad. now back at home, i am having my room's aircon on whenever i am in the room lor. high consumption of electricity but bo bian. i really cannot tahan hot de. i would rather be cold than hot lor.

cs2102 project still hasn't started yet. hope can start next wk even though i quite busy with 2 midterms. EE2006 lab project, still thinking, still designing...but the overall structure and method to solve the problem is out. so i guess i just need to put it down on paper nicely. 2 midterms, EE2009 still left with modulation to complete...and it's open book so no need to memorise equations... EE2006 revised once le during the recess wk, now just need to revise one more time and do some practice.

sam said i sounded sad in the last few posts in my blog. hmm, just read them myself, hmm really quite true. but then i wasn't really sad lah, it was just some lows in the mood only, which return to the normal and high levels very soon. lols. i sound like i change my mood very easily. hmm, actually not lah. just that i manage to see some things in a more open manner le. :)

well thinking about it, if not for lows in my mood, there wun be highs. so, it's always good to have some lows in your life so that u will treasure your highs more. sounds familiar, but this idea is true enough and can nv be denied.

it's time to be positive about life and my studies. if not for all these stress, where will my motivation to work harder be? nowhere, i think. i am really a person who will only work hard under stress. external motivation, be it negative or positive, is very important to me. i really believe that i thrive in competition. only with stronger competition then i will become better. that really shows if one knows my academic background :)

i think after this sem, i will be much better in my time management, even though yh says that my time management had been good, which i think is quite true :) abit bhb, but then i really think so. i suppose no one can deny this fact, even myself... but then, there's no limit to my ability of time management. and this sem would be a period that i improve my time management skills to a higher level.

thinking of it, smartness doesn't really bring you far. it may bring you to the university. but it really doesn't bring you thru the university, at least that's what i think now. really have to work hard in uni to score well. i dun remember i have to work so hard during sec school and jc time to be one of the top in the cohort. now i work hard, and i may not get the results i want, cuz everyone here is the best from their own respective countries. NUS is really a place where there are so many international students that i think the number of them may exceed the number of Singaporeans. this is definitely true in the engin fac, as for the other facs, i can't say for sure.

though i appear to have very good results, but then it's all due to my hard work, and i can say at most 20% is due to my smartness. if i dun work hard, i think i would at most get an average of B+, and i think that's still an overestimation. but i wun slack around de, cuz i just can't seem to slack when everyone else is working hard. external motivation at work... a SAP of 5.0 is still possible this sem, provided i work really hard and manage my time really well for the rest of the sem, which is like only 8 more weeks, including the exam period... seems short but maintaining a high-powered drive for 2 months is not easy. but i will definitely try to do that, maybe taking small little breaks here and there to maintain the momentum.

ok, that's all, got to go back to my studies le. blogging has really become a way for me to relax le :)

em, u must be wondering why am i still continuing to write...cuz my gf asks me to write something abt her... so just write lor... lols. remembered 三毛 asked me why she was still in school late at nite, then i was like oh, he still dunno lols, wanted to tell him, but then, decided not to, cuz it's fun to let him know thru my blog, cuz i know he will come read my blog de lols. everytime come stalk me. lols, oops!

she wants me to write something nice about her here. but then, i dun think i should cuz these things are meant for me to say it to her personally...come to think about it, she seems to contradict herself. she said she will paiseh when i say mushy stuff to her in front of pple, but then writing nice things about her on my blog is almost equivalent to broadcasting my mushy words for her...lols...oops

well, details not be disclosed. she's really quite nice. bought breakfast on wed for me, well, quite glad becuz she's quite "lazy", and yet she's willing to go buy breakfast for me. :) there are other nice stuff that she did, but then it's very hard to describe them here, cuz they are all minor minor small small stuff that can makes one's heart smile...:)

ok, that's really all, unless...

i hate mosquitoes!!!

now i think i have around 15 bumps on my body due to the stupid mosquitoes in my room. so itchy, so bothered that i am here blogging. dun have a lighter with me now to light up a mosquito coil. sianz. must go and buy lighter and some things that can remove those mosquitoes in my room. killed one on monday, killed one just now. i think still got around 1 or 2 mosquitoes left. oh my god!!! what's worse is they bit my face. my face got around 3 or 4 bumps!!! what the...

besides external factors that prevent me from going back to sleep, some things are bothering me. ok, firstly, EE2006 D1A project, i dun really understand how to go about implementing the thing. but i think this one can be done after i understand the question and the devices fully. next, cs2102 project, haven't started yet, other group members are still busy with their projects, hope we can at least start from next week onwards, even though i am quite busy next week. next, i have failed my selection for NOC, which i sort of expected it cuz i didn't really prepare well for it. this leaves me thinking whether i should re-apply next yr. hmm...

today's agenda:
1)try to get my xilinx work on my laptop
2)get lighter and anything that can kill mosquitoes
3)finish my ee2006 tutorial for next wk
4)think about ee2006 D1A project

ok i think i should go and have a run now. sounds ridiculous to run at 5 plus in the morning. but i think i haven't run for more than a wk le. since i am awake now, i might as well go run and i think i should be able to cool down by 7 plus, have my breakfast and go for the lecture at 8.

i guess i should be super tired after the run, considering i only have around 5 hours of disturbed sleep... maybe have some nap in the morning ba...
