Happy Birthday Pinny


He is the one,

Who is there for me whenever I need him,

Who I can just randomly mumble without filtering my words,

Who knows I’ll fall and yet he encourage me to follow my heart,

Who support my decision even though I might be wrong,

Sometime, he is just like my dad,

Worry that I might be hurt yet he will let me go to grow,

He gave me the courage and belief in myself,

He is true to me, direct and honest,

Will praise me, scold me…

A true friend of mine…

Who claims himself my brother.

Brother Pinny, Happy Birthday.

May you all the best and love you always.

Stay cheers =)

random



This cute little baby here is my niece! 10th October baby, named Zi Ying. hehe. another Ying.. hopefully her daddy don't call her ah ying also.. I have so many ah ying in family d.. Sometime really don't know should I answer a not when someone call for ah ying. Will look for this cutie as soon as I get back M'sia.

Final exam in a week time.. progress? BAD.

Okay.. Sien.. Computing SIEN.. No idea how to go to exam hall with no tutorial available, with only ONE past year paper.. crap.. sigh..

Just realized I didn't mentioned about the MUMSU ball I went with my friends longgggg ago..

Let's show some you some random photos.

First of all, have to thanks my dear housemate Hilary, who shopped with us, helped us to make up, hair-do.. ALL by Hilary.


Devil, Master, Angel (L to R)

One of my favourite photos during the ball, thanks Jon. It looks like a candid shot, but is not. That's the reason why I was smiling.. haha.. coz of Jon.

This photo is bit dark, but is the best as other will overexpose the scenary behind. Can't remember what's that place call, but the bay behind is the Wineglass Bay at Tasmania. Is not easy to climb up that rock though.. just to take a photo.. haha..
Taken by my sis in the tulip farm I missed. Will definitely go there next year. Won't miss it again. ( Hopefully) Wish I could have see the real dog, miss my doggie lo..

My sis and I had this thick chocolaty brownies at Max Brennen during holiday. *Thumb up
This is currently number 1 in my list for chocolate bakery. Follow by the chocolate mud cake in Mornington.

Mentioned about chocolate, I made a chocolate cheesecake with my friend that day. It was just okay as we put too much butter for the base, bit salty. Easy jelak for that flavour. However, we realized this cake taste good after is fridge for few days. Maybe we should be more patient and wait for few days next time.

While waiting for the base to chilled, I baked double choc muffins as well. However, there are no more self-raising flour. Therefore, I changed my recipe to baking soda. Cin cin cai cai.. din follow the recipe ratio of ingredient as well. haha.. it turn out failed as muffin, bit overbaked as I was hoping it will be more 'cooked'. However, the guys love it. When you bite, the chocolate inside is still melting. Sounds like some chocolate lava cake. haha.. ya.. they like it, and asking me to bake that again. but.. since I cin cai mix and add ingredient myself that day, I not very sure of the ratio I mixed that day =P. haha.. not sure can I produce such 'failure product' again or not.



This last photo is a prove to show dad and mom. See, I got 'guai guai' wear mask although I am always-the-only-one wearing mask in the whole airport. So no worry about me. =)



Rice or diamond?

one month to go





One month to go for final exam, stll have Digital system report due next week, Oral presentation and final report of Experimental Project (40%), killing and LAST MATLAB report due next Friday and freaking Computing assignment + FEA due on 19th of October..

Never ending due dates going to come to an end, however no rest is allowed as final exam is coming so soon and I'm unprepared for it.

I have a day break today at Lindt's cafe with friend. We were the first customer of the day, and sat there until the cafe was going to end their day. Read something non-academic (finally), chit chat, some drinks and cakes.. it just made my day =) Thanks for the invitation.

Went Tasmania with friends and sister, it was an adventerous trip.. and we were pretty lucky I would say. Missed the tulip farm due to some reason. Is okay.. I'll go for it next year. Now, I'll just have to admire it through the photos took by my sis with her SLR camera. ( She made my friends want to get SLR by having one.)

Celebrated Mid-autumn festival with neighbour a.k.a mechatronic etc guys. Had a great night with lots of foods. Loved their salad, especially the dressing. Seldom have guys who are so good at preparing foods. =P We girls were just preparing dessert e.g. egg tarts, apple pie by my sis and etc. Other than that, we had mooncakes, chinese teas and lantern. haha. That's why is difficult to tell the difference for me, coz we were still celebrating just like back in M'sia, just without the parents and family. ( they burnt lantern for fun..)

Anyway, I am going back in 2 months time.. hehe.

Didn't get to sleep;

matlab-ing

Okay.. why am I awake so early?

I was awake by 4am. still sick, having flu which caused me easily tire and sleepy. I fall into deep sleep early yesterday night when I was supposed to take a nap. :/ We always have a busy week ahead, the marathon lectures of Monday and Tuesday is superb tiring, however I managed to attend all. Just that it is harder for me to concentrate this week, even harder to struggle not to fall asleep - the reason I hate to fall sick. I think I couldn't even struggle with my eye lids this week, it just closed and go to dreamland in one second. People are telling me is pretty useless and waste of time to attend 'useless' lectures, is better to do something more 'beneficial', e.g. pratice more on computing stuff. I do practice my NX skill, just that I prefer to do it after class. Sometime or most of the time I do day dream in class, couldn't focus and etc, at least I do get something on and off through lectures.

Week 4 is ending soon and it is the week that begins the seem-infinite-endless-hell of due date every week. For example this week, we have a report due on Monday, an assignment due and test Wednesday and a MATLAB report on Friday. The reason why am I here? I am stuck at my m-file coding. Jacobi and SOR, one have too much input argument, one have too much output argument. Sigh. I shall just skip to cubic spline question.

The on-going Design 3 project seems scary, it got me worry about it all the time. Are we running out of time? Is my understanding about my part sufficient? Is the calculation alright? Do we progress too slow? Failure and etc.

A pretty helpless case happened last week during exam review, one of my units, need just 0.5 marks in the final paper to go to the next grade. Nothing can be done.

Alright, shall get back to matlab.
May everyone doing well and stay healthy!

Thanks mom

I am feeling quite a mess right now. Kind of blank on what should I do. Just feel like leaving my mind blank, staring at my laptop, lose focus and wait for bed time to strike. 12? 1am? Recently sleep at 11pm, and it seems too early for engineering students huh? Get many shock response when I wish others good night at 11pm.

Last semester's result is not good. Overall is better than the semester before, and I was relieved when I knew I passed all my papers. However, I knew I can do better, I caught panic in the exam hall and screwed up my papers. I knew it was caused by my lack of confidence of my understanding, slacked off too much during lectures/tutorials. Although I tried to catch up, I was not confident. What has passed is past, new semester and is time to move on.

In this new semester, I have promise to myself, no matter how bad, how boring is the class, I shall never skip class anymore. Not for any reason. There is always something to learn, I always believe every individual has something we can learn, even from a kid. Since the lecturer is able to be our LECTURER, the knowledge must be there, is really depends on our attitude and will of learning.Will find a way to survive through the long and continuous lecture hours.

This semester has some heavy workloads due to projects and lab reports, guess will be occupied by assignments. Will try to stay positive, get enough sleep, and keep on track of study to prevent the horrible nightmare.

Something mom always told us since young are so true, although she don't say that to me anymore.

" What you learn is what you get, you don't study for others, coz others won't gain benefit when you do"

" No matter how irrelevant you think what you learn to your future, or you might think it might not be useful or waste of time. However, you never know, the knowledge that you learn might appear to be useful one day."

Thanks Mom.


Happy Belated Birthday, Ping!

The lectures get bored as Monday has 4 hours continuous lectures follow by killing Tuesday 6 hours of lectures. 2 project based units this semester, many group works and presentation and LAB. Sigh.. stress semester.

Finally get a hold of the book "the secret" by Rhonda Byrne, thanks to my brother and parents. =)

Home sick.. probably

Hmm.. I miss daddy when I look at my study.. especially thermodynamic and heat transfer.. that heat exchanger that daddy explained to me few months ago. From America model, German Model to Japan model… cross flow and etc…

vibration of a system. this and that..

My dad taught me so.. and is different from what I learn in uni. Yet I know both will benefits me.

I miss home.. to be back at Malaysia, where study is the main priority, I don’t need to worry about anything else.

Actually I am not really home sick.. just thinking.. how nice if I am home now.

If there are no such moments, we would not appreciate life.
Without the sad moment,
we will not be aware of the happy moment.
Just like dark and light,
we would not realize about light if there is no darkness.
Without the tough moment,
we do not understand how fragile or strong we are.
Without all those suffer,
we would not learn to appreciate what we have.
Without the lonely time,
we would not notice the one who really care about us
No matter what, everything will be alright at the end.
We can get through the dark age of our life just like others do.
This is just part of life,
to learn and gain the bitter experiences to make ourselves more perfect.
This is just a transition of life, be strong, stay cheers and...
No matter what,
I will always be there.

My room and life

Suddenly remember that I haven't show others my room.. hehe. Let's have a look at it k?


Is Sunday~ The start of week 11, war shall begin.. My shoulder get very stiff sitting on my nice, clean n clear table. ( Everyone said my room is the most clean n nice room. =P). This is the random photo I took when I fed up on my study 2 weeks ago around 6am..




Normally my study table is very clear and clean, everything nicely arrange. This one looks kind of messy because I was half way studying. Yesterday, I went to Clayton Town and bought my mono-laser printer from Office Work, everyone felt unbelievable because I carried it home myself. ( is actually not that heavy la...)


Okay.. So I got an extra bulky big box in my room now.. of course have to make full use of it =P. It becomes the small table for my study. hehe.. and so.. To begin the war.. I mess up my room this morning.


This is my newly bought Nora Robert collection, 5 books for 30 AUD.. so cheap >.<
And it becomes the support for my mouse pad for the day.. hehe




Everyone sure laugh at this whenever they walk in my room.. sien.... I have all those papers on since the 1st few weeks of semester, and the timetable and progress chart is on since few weeks ago.. Argh. hate it.. so many untick there.. I need more 'tick' on my progress chart..

However, there is a place I'll never mess it up.. hehe.. My bed. =)


To begin the war. never ever forget my caffeine addiction need..

Coffee and tea~ SL and I have crazy lots of selection. From our favourite Moccona medium roast 50g ( I already finished 150g of this =P), dark roast50g, brazil reserve 150g, espresso x10 sachets, nescafe gold for coffee 50g. Lipton black tea x50, green tea with jasmine x10, apple and cinnamon x10 , honey and lemonx10, and green tea x100 tea bags. My coffee always runs out faster than tea.. I wonder how I going to survive when I go back Malaysia, coz Nescafe is so suck compare to Moccona.

My lemon crisp biscuit in Moccona coffee jar. =P Did I mentioned I have crazy lots of biscuit, snacks supply in my closet? The quantity is more than what I eat for these 20 years.. trust me. Coz I don't eat biscuit and cookies much back in Malaysia.
