容忍的人其實並不笨, 只是寧可對自己殘忍

Finally, I have finished all the projects and presentations which drove me crazy.. Now, I can sleep for more than 5 hours.. huuuuuuhhhhhhhhhh.. BIG relief.. Last week was a super duper busy week.. Each day due one long report..

Monday – Mechanical Design Process a.k.a MDP report (70 pages)
+ Sport and work place management report (25 pages) &
presentation (I like the presentation, we danced for the intro)

WednesdayThermofluid Lab final exam

ThursdayMDP presentation ( good comments from instructor )

Friday – Engineers in Society a.k.a EIS report (50 pages)

+ Technical Communication report ( 30 pages)

The most difficult report for me is the Technical Communication report because I was the only one who wrote the report while the other groups had at least one group member to help in the report (FYI, all the groups consist of minimum 5 persons).. My life was miserable because of my S _ _ _ group mates!!!

Although they did sent me the assigned tasks to me but the problem was they simply did the tasks.. I couldn’t put the tasks inside the report.. The same things returned to me again when I asked for correction.. I had NO choice at all.. I want to score the subject so I did it solely.. All the marks should belong to me!! 5 times more efforts than other classmates..

You may wonder why don’t I select my group mates.. Well, initially I was in a group which everyone in the group is willing to put in effort.. However, unfortunately, there were people in the class didn’t put effort to form a group.. (See they didn’t even try to form a group, how am I going to expect QUALITY outputs from them)..She dragged me out from the group and promised will take care of me and the group………………….......(sensitive here so censored out)..

To my group mates in TECB class: I want QUALITY output from you not GARGABE!!! If you didn’t do your part properly and correctly, bear in mind that someone else will need to do for it.. The report wouldn’t fall from the sky.. ( 容忍的人其實並不笨, 只是寧可對自己殘忍) I want to score but have no choice to do it on my own..

In my opinion, I think the same thing is happening to some groups also.. ( Land slide, ok? =P) The TECB class should allow students to choose their own group because there are people who are willing to put in effort while some are not.. If you put them together, the lazy bump will get a free ride.. If there are no multi-races groups, I bet………………………………

Below are some of the examples:

''Once a source of drinking water, many rivers in Malaysia have become dumping grounds for various types of hazardous wastes. Of all natural resources.''
I thought International students are good and hardworking.. I don't know what you are writing.. If you want to cut and paste, at least make it to be perfect.. Whenever you couldn't meet the deadline you just came to me and said sorry, you have tests (well, only you have test) bla bla bla then sorry and bye.. Can I say the same thing to our lecturer???? Well, you need to plan your time wisely and be responsible.. I have not very good (sounds nicer) / _ a _ impression on International students..

''was conducted on February 17, 2009 at MPKj. We had taken about 8 weeks to complete this long report and had spent about RM 50 for transportation and printings.''
This sentence is under the scope of research in the report.. Well, for academic writing, readers would not want to know how much we spent on transportation and printings.. Besides, there is ''we'' in the sentence.. I had told her not to put I, We and Our in the report.. BIG SIGH.. No choice but have to do her part..

Mechanical Design Process (^^)V

For the MDP project (spent 12 weeks), I can say that my group did very well!! Thank you for your hard work to my group mate Mr. Chun Hong a.k.a ah chan.. (PS, he was with me all the time doing the project) Without you, our group will not succeed.. Our group was designing an electrical automatic car jack system..

The prototype of the electrical automatic car jack system..



Spent 4 hours to derive this equation.. Proud of it.. =)

Below are the optimization done on the design..

The initial safety factor is too high which means the design is too safe.. Material can be saved from the design..

Cost that have been saved for one mounting head is RM0.10..
If the mounting head is to be produced for 1 million units then RM 100,000 ( house or car) can be saved!

Proud to be an engineer!!

子欲养而亲不在 (touch wood)

Yesterday, my dad saw things blurly.. I brought him to see eyes specialist in Kajang.. The eyes specialist immediately sent my dad to Melaya Hospital.. My dad's eyes were very critical.. In the hospital, my dad was hardly seeing things.. I had to hold his hand all the time to guide him.. As I held his hand along the way to another department.. Feelings came into my mind and heart.. I was so afraid that he............... The operation MUST be PERFECT!! God, I am praying very hard for that.. I hope my dad will be pink in health tomorrow.. Thanks in advance..

随着自己愈长大,看着父母亲,脸庞从年轻变憔悴,头发从乌丝变白发,动作从迅捷变缓慢,多心疼!父母亲总是将最好、最宝贵的留给我们,像蜡烛不停的燃烧自己,照亮孩子!而我呢?有没有腾出一个空间给我的父母,或者只是在当我需要停泊岸时,才会想起他们...其实父母亲要的真的不多,只是一句随意的问候「爸、妈,你们今天好吗?」随意买的宵夜,煮一顿再普通不过的晚餐,帮他们添衣服...都能让他们高兴温馨很久.

朋友,那你呢?

Excited Weekend

Usually I will go back to my hometown Seremban every weekend.. I enjoy the time to be with my family and sisters.. I know, as we grow up, it would be difficult for us to see each other anymore.. Besides, I can play badminton with my high school friends and look after my papaya trees(they are getting taller and going to have fruits soon) ^^.. So many interesting activities I can do in Seremban but this weekend I grudged going back.. I had to stay in Kajang to join my Sport and Recreation at Workplace project.. It was an excited weekend indeed..

On Friday, 20/2/2009, Keith Tan a.k.a Fai Jei Tat, Jason Lee a.k.a bubu, alvin law, Kok Wei and his girl friend a.k.a Mr. & Ms LOVE went to the Restaurant Shabu-Shabu in Bandar Puteri.. This restaurant was different from the other restaurants of steam bot buffet.. Everyone had his own steam bot utensil to cook his food.. The food were delivered to us by a conveyor belt which was similar to the restaurant Sushi King.. The SPECIAL thing of Shabu Shabu was the VERY thin sliced pork meats.. Believe it or not? It was so thin in thickness until once I immersed the sliced pork meat into the hot soup, it was ready to be served in the following second.. And it was YUMMY!!! The drink was a little bit special too.. They served ice blended orange and grape.. No doubt it was delicious..

Below are some of the pictures(I only have two, others are with Keith Tan):

''ho chiak''

PAINT ball == PAIN ball ??

On Sunday,22/2/2009, we went to a paintball field which was located near Amcorp Mall.. This was my first time playing paintball.. It was VERY EXCITED as I can 'KILL'(eliminate) my opponents in practical way.. During the game, my heart was beating very fast and the level of hormone adrenaline went up high.. This was a REAL war game.. If I failed to 'kill' my opponents, I would be shot by them.. FYI, it was very painful when hit by ''pain'' ball.. OUCH!!! (Pei Saan please takes note) Steve Chan a.k.a (don't have yet) had some bruises over his body but I was lucky enough to have none.. And I managed to kill three 'enemy'!! (^-^)v This sport game is good in team building.. It requires effective communication, strategies and team work to win the game.. I enjoyed it very much =)

Happy Single and Available Day..

THIS POST IS STRICTLY FOR THOSE WHO ARE SINGLE AND AVAILABLE!
PLEASE LEAVE IF YOU ARE NOT SINGLE!

IF you are reading up to here and in a relationship with someone, post a message with your name and your soul mate(s)'s name in the blue chat box..
For example: [your_name]=3=[your_soul_mate's_name]..
(note: the symbol '=3=' represent [abc] is holding [xyz]'s hand)
IF you fail to do so, you will break up with your soul mate(s)!! **CURSED** :-P hehe..

Happy single and available day to all my single and available friends and myself!
I hate Valentine's day (ONLY up to the day I meet my Mrs. RIGHT) because everywhere will be flooded with all the sweet couples holding their hands hanging around while my hands are in my pockets.. Therefore, I have decided to date with my text books at my Seremban home..
**Advice: If you are single, Genting Highland and A'famosa are definitely not the places you should go on Valentine's day.. You will feel lonely seeing the couples there"..**
However, I do celebrate 'Single and Available' day.. As usual, every year Jason Lee a.k.a bubu will organise a bachelor party .. I joined his party every year!! (T.T) In 2009, we went to Look Out Point at Hulu Langat.. The light was dim, the ambiance was romantic and the night view was stunning.. I wish I won't join Jason Lee's bachelor party anymore >< (Bubu, take the courage to confess.. She is there waiting for you.. Don't miss it!)
Below is the beautiful night view (specially thanks to Vincent Ong):
Unfortunately, in this romantic month, there are a few couples broke up.. I am sorry to hear that.. Brothers, life goes on and there might be a great one waiting for you.. You lost a person who doesn't love you but she lost a person that love her very much.. Achieve your targets that you are not able to hit when you are coupled.. ~gambate-neh~
In my network, everyone bought expensive gift for his/her love one such as Ipod Touch (one of my to-buy list), Guess, very nice looking NIKE bag (boss, you must raise my salary dy), branded drinking bottle and so do I.. I bought a Carlton Racket as my Single and Available present.. (^-^)V Finally, I don't have to rely on Zhi Jian already.. Thank you for lending your racket to me all the time..

Carlton racket & shutter cocks

(RM$$$ more expensive than the Guess purse)!!
