The End Of Year 2 Sem 1

Today’s the last paper already! And that means, I shall start on the evaluation of all the modules that I have took this semester once again.


EE2006 – Digital Design
This is the subject that I have the most confidence in. Reason? It’s fun, flexible, and unpredictable at times. To summarise all, it’s challenging. But as usual, for my case, confidence is inversely proportionate to results. That’s why I hate exams sometimes. I know, but I just don’t know what you are trying to say.

The labs were fun, playing with bread boards and stuff like that. Unlike other labs, where we have to rush through the whole experiment and for some, finish up the lab report and hand in by the end of 3 hours, these labs were design experiments. Except for the VHDL labs, the rest of the labs were for the same question.

The exam, which was the last paper, was OK, I think. Some questions I do not know. I thought it was not important. Hahaa.. Some, I did, and I did not know what I was doing. And so, see how ba…

EE2009 – Signals
“You must do it!” – CC Ko.
Ok, I did it, and with lots of errors. Totally catch no ball for the first part of the lecture, which was not taught by CC Ko. The second part was slightly better, but still blur. E-test was fun, but I kept making the same mistakes. There were 2 experiments, and as usual, went in and did things which I did not understand, and then hand in lab reports by 5pm, that sort of thing. I did pass the labs, however.

The paper was quite fun. I was thinking through one of my answers, and was about to make one final change when the lecturer said “time’s up”. Oh well. That’s it.

EE2010 – Systems And Control
This module deals with stability of Linear-time invariant (LTI) systems. After a bit of guidance from a good tutor, I managed to shift my poles more to the left hand plane… mid term was ok, except that, I only managed to solve some questions through some ‘banging through the wall’ method… The labs were ok, as we were allowed to finish up the report and hand in by 2pm the next day.

The paper was a stunner. Almost everyone was shocked at the standard of the paper. What a way to kick off our exam week…

EE2012 – Analytical Methods in Electrical and Computer Engineering
What a long module name! This is the worst module! When you revise, you think you understand, but when tests and exams come, you realise that you understand nothing! The book’s no good for revision, as it tends to skip lots of things. The mid term was a nightmare with some disagreements here and there. Bad…

The exam, as expected, was bad. I brought in 10% of the knowledge into the exam hall, and come out feeling cheated. Why did he use the same paper?? I mean, the questions are the same, only some changes in values here and there? Why? Is he that lazy?

SSA2204 – Nation Building
I took this module to fulfill my Singapore Studies requirement. An OK module on Singapore history, with thinkings and quite a lot of readings.

One thing for sure is that, I don’t really like to write essays. I just hope that, for the exam, I did manage to pull the kite back to its path. I don’t want to get back a ‘U’ for this module.


That’s the end of the evaluation. Overall, it’s not really a nice semester….


And so, after the paper today, Edwin, Benjamin, Joan, Xinli, and I went to Ghim Moh market to have lunch. Hmmm… there were quite a number of stores that were closed, perhaps, due to Monday. All except 1, ordered from the same seafood soup stall… Quite ok I think. Maybe due to the fact that I only ate 1 packet of biscuit in the morning, I finished up the food quite fast… hungry!!

And after that, Ben and I alighted at Bouna Vista MRT station, and the other 3 went back to school. Hmm.. I had no where else to go. I took MRT, and alighted at JE. Went over to IMM to try to shop. Did buy something from the DIY shop. And after buying some food, I went home.

On reaching home, I started to clean up my room, and paint the bed with some leftover paint from last year’s painting of the living room. Quite nice, I think.

painted_bed

Nice?? Wahahaa…

Yeah, and that’s what I did after the exams. The moment I was online this afternoon, people started to ask me, “eh, never go out?”

Yes. Never go out. Due to the lack of people. All wanted to go home. I was somehow indirectly forced home. And so, I am home. So? Home… means home… aiya crap.

It just proves my last blog. That’s why I have reduced anticipation. It’s better that way.

Yeah, no one will be in the mood to do other things too. But then, I just wanted a walk around, before actually heading back home. Cannot? Too bad then…

Maybe I should go find Lionel one day, go all the way to Bishan to visit him there, and maybe I will get more whipped cream for my White Chocolate Dream? Waahaha!

I will like to visit Zhangkai one fine day too, at Hougang, and see what he’s selling…. Hmmm… See how.

And I want to swim. I want to bball. I want to play tennis. I want to play badminton…!!!

Wahahaa…. =)

12 More hours. what will happen after that?

Somehow, the only time in the past 2 sems that I did not really head for home, was the first sem. We all went to catch some movie! The day's events were recorded in blog id 419.

The second sem? Went home after lunch and a walk around JP… Here's the record: blog id 614.

And yesterday, I took the very same bus that I took last April. That time, it was from JP back home. Yesterday, it was from JE. Same old words on the back seat…

And activities after tomorrow's paper. Well, I don't have any high hopes for anything. I will just be flexible. Even if I end up going home after the paper.

Sometimes, I feel that this is true:

With great anticipation comes great disappointment.

I should really focus on killing tomorrow's paper first. Yes. I shall kill.

As always, I always say that before every design paper. But in the end, I got killed. I think tomorrow's no exception.

No no…. think positive first! Yes… it's the last battle for the semester…

Oh well… I am already in “play mode”… Haha… Hmm…

Morning~ With 1 Day Left.

Hmm. Just one more day to the end. Yay.

As usual, the results, I think, will reflect my luck level for this semester. Sometimes, it's just not that we don't know. It's just that, we have never thought about it.

Ok… last paper! Everyone jiayou!~

NTU people… They have finished their exams! I should be playing bball today! But then, afternoon will rain, so, luckily I have paper on Monday… hahaha….

I am quite ready for the last paper. Quite. But as always, being ready doesn't mean anything, because, the lecturers always have the tendency to come up with things that I don't understand, and so, unable to do.

But then, basically, EE2006 is a design module, so it's quite fun. And being a design module, knowing things is not enough. Practice? Maybe. Understanding each part is more important. Fundamentals. How things work. And, what are the actual names of things.

I was looking at some questions and I came across something known as Johnson's counter. Erm… sounded familiar, and I went to check, then I know that one is known as Johnson's counter… hahahaa…

Ok, enough of crap. Time to listen to S.H.E's album again…

4S3 Homepage.. The Forgotten One…

I was doing some cleaning up of 2 of my domain names, and I realised that, I have neglected one webpage of mine! CSS 4S3 '1999 Homepage! OMG!

* adds link back into link list *
* to be reviewed after exam *

And then, I was looking at the photos there. OMG! I really look like nerd! A fat nerd! Wahahaha!

No wonder no one remembers me la… who will remember a fat nerd. Everyone will remember a nerd who is ?. Who says there are no ? nerds in this world?

Erm… haha…

But then, I really looked like a ball. I AM still a ball, thanks to all those slacking-around-and-stone sessions, and laziness, and rain, and…. whatevers…

And then, I look at Emmanuel. Wahahaha! And then, those that I will tend to see more often: Yingzi, Zhixiang, Victor, Linchuan, Junguang, Lijian, and Suen Cin. Well… lol!

Interesting!

And it looks like, some people have already MIA from my contact list. Last time, I sent an email out on April's (April's a person ok, not a month.. haha.. ok.. aka Huijun) suggestion of some outing some time in December or what, and so far, I only received 1 response. Yeah, from the server, saying address is invalid. I have got nothing else to say…

Ok ba. It's not easy to get everyone togther. Just keep the group small ba. The swim group. The bball siaos. The financial advisor group. The server group. The blogger group. What other groups? Hmm…

The zzz group? Whahaaa!

Lalalalaaa…. I am sooooooooo not studying today!!!

Today is DEAD, and so, went shopping…

Ok, confirm dead. I have issued myself a death cert for 2012. I think alot of other people are also issued death certs.

The paper is so identical to last semester’s. Or I should say, exactly the same, except for some changes in values here and there. Otherwise, everything’s the same. It’s so… lazy of the lecturer!!

But as usual, I don’t have the solutions. I don’t know how to do, and so, I don’t know anything.

And it looks like, some people do have the solutions to the last semester’s paper. A repeat of 2009 scenario? It’s so…

Whatever.

Too bad for me.


After the paper, I decided to go for some shopping. Bought S.H.E’s new album!

buxiangzhangda_1

And with it, a calendar! There are 2 designs to choose from, but I chose this radio-look-alike.

Ok, time to enjoy the songs…. *opens wrapping*

Tomorrow is DIE…

Alright, this is true.

Tomorrow, shall be the one paper, that I will go in with only around 10% knowledge of whatever's happening, and hopefully, come out with something that's around grade C.

That's a big fat hope.

Hmm… don't know la.

Morning Rain…

Yes. It's raining! Or rather, drizzling. Light rain.

Better than nothing.

Hmmm… if thinking and dreaming will become reality, is that good or bad? Perhaps it depends on what you have thought or dreamt of.

Let's take sweet events and incidents for example. Wouldn't it be great, if they can become reality?

Although sometimes, I felt that, some event that has happened during a particular time, I somehow think that I have gone through that particular event before. I think everyone should have that experience before? Thinking that what's happening to you now, you have actaully gone through before, in your dreams?

Hmm… back to main point. Rain. But I don't see rainbow around. Hmm…

Haha. Ok! Another day! Yay!

S.H.E’s new album! [不想长大]

S.H.E’s new album will be out tomorrow! And so, here’s the song lyrics to their latest song:

If it’s possible not to grow up, is that good or bad?
不想长大歌词
歌手:S.H.E 专辑:不想长大
曲:左安安 词:施人诚

为什麼就是找不到不谢的玫瑰花
为什麼遇见的王子都不够王子啊
我并不期盼他会有玻璃鞋和白马
我惊讶的是情话竟然会变成谎话
为什麼幸福的青鸟要飞的那麼高
为什麼苹果和拥抱都可能是毒药
我从没想过有了他还孤单的可怕
我突然想起从前陪我那个洋娃娃

我不想我不想不想长大
长大後世界就没童话
我不想我不想不想长大
我宁愿永远都笨又傻
我不想我不想不想长大
长大後我就会失去他
我深爱的他 深爱我的他
已经变得不像他

我不想我不想不想长大
长大後世界就没童话
我不想我不想不想长大
我宁愿永远都笨又傻
我不想我不想不想长大
长大後我就会失去他
我深爱的他 深爱我的他
怎麼会爱上别的他

为什麼水晶球里面看不出他在变
为什麼结局没欢笑而是泪流满面
我愿意在他回来前继续安静沉睡
但他已去到别座城堡吻另一双嘴
为什麼对流星许愿却从来没实现
为什麼英勇的骑士会比龙还危险
我当然知道这世界不会完美无瑕
我只求爱情能够不要那麼样复杂

让我们回去从前好不好
天真愚蠢快乐美好

Arghhhh.. must 冷静

Stupid 2012…

I think I understand, then I try past year paper, and find a lot of things I don’t understand, and I cannot find any clues anywhere!

Stupid 2012…

HOW? Hmm… Go in to the exam hall, then then see how. That’s HOW…

Why like that? Is it really that hard to understand? I don’t know why…

It’s just.. sux…

On An Alternative [一路向北(头文字 D 插入曲) ]

When I am not really free for a swim (erm, actually is too sianz to go out), the sun’s out early in the morning, shining here and there after a few “dark days”.

I like this song too. Can imagine that you are the driver, and going through the lyrics, it just feels right!

一路向北(头文字 D 插入曲)

周杰伦
十一月的萧邦 第 12 首
阿尔发音乐2005年11月

词:方文山 曲:周杰伦

后视镜里的世界
越来越远的道别
你转身向背
侧脸还是很美
我用眼光去追
竟听见你的泪

在车窗外面徘徊
是我错失的机会
你站的方位
跟我中间隔着泪
街景一直在后退
你的崩溃在窗外零碎

我一路向北
离开有你的季节
你说你好累
已无法再爱上谁
风在山路吹
过往的画面
全都是我不对
细数惭愧 我伤你几回

后视镜里的世界
越来越远的道别
你转身向背
侧脸还是很美
我用眼光去追
竟听见你的泪

在车窗外面徘徊
是我错失的机会
你站的方位
跟我中间隔着泪
街景一直在后退
你的崩溃在窗外零碎

我一路向北
离开有你的季节
你说你好累
已无法再爱上谁
风在山路吹
过往的画面
全都是我不对
细数惭愧 我伤你几回

我一路向北
离开有你的季节
方向盘周围
回转着我的后悔
我加速超越
却甩不掉紧紧跟随的伤悲
细数惭愧 我伤你几回
停止狼狈 就让错纯粹

Yeah, some of you might say ‘old song’, but still, it’s nice!
