Yasmin Ahmad, R.I.P.

I am not sure if any of you know about her but she was one of the renowned nation director in which her works are not just recognized locally but also internationally. Films like Sepet, Gubra and Mukhsin are among her masterpieces. Some of the PETRONAS famous adverts were directed by her as well.

Sad to hear she was gone, may her soul rest in peace.

*It's like exactly one month after Michael Jackson died. Wonder who's next?

*************************

So, weekend ended, for this week. Second week of lectures, will start in few hours time. Tomorrow I will be having my first lab session for Engineering Graphics course. For now, we have to use graph papers for the first one. -.-"

Guess have to take thing slowly. Anyway, this coming week will be packed for me as I am involved in Minggu Mesra Kampus which will start on 29 July. Also, Public Speaking Workshop on 4 or 5 August, it is like less than 2 weeks from now. Need to real catch up with things.

That's all for now. :)

Annoyed

I find it is very hard to be a good people, well, at least internally. At the same time, it is not easy to be a bad people either, for someone like me. It is not that I want to be a bad person but I just cannot control my feeling, sometimes. Perhaps my EQ level is very low but that is not the point anyway. People that I get to meet in Uni really open my eyes.

People that annoy me:
1. Those who ask you stop doing something in which he is doing exactly the thing that you are doing.
2. Those who change just want to get along with other people, change to a certain extent that one is losing their own identity and I will never get what kind of persons are they.
(I may change a little, but not until a point that I am losing myself.)

I am not sure if I myself am annoying though. Oh well, if you think I am, just say it. But I won’t specify who annoy me because I just won’t tell. I am a good friend who will never hurt my friends’ feeling. Sorry if I have done that to anyone. :)

*****************

Sleeping and gaming, my routine for the day. I sleep quite a lot lately. First week, no assignment, no quiz, no labs, nothing except for introductory lectures. Timetable for this semester, to me, is way better than the last one with no night class and free after 5pm. But, the venues for class is horrible. Location for few consecutive classes can be like few blocks away. This can be very exhausting.

Playing 2 games at the moment. DoTA does not make it into my list, FORTUNATELY. Been playing The Sims since the first one, now I am playing the third edition. It’s pretty cool as my Sims can explore more than just their own homes. One thing I don’t like is that sooner my Sims will die. I know I can deactivate the aging process but what’s the point of playing if like that. It will be so less realistic, except for the money cheat. Haha

O2Jam, due to the installation of The Sims 3 into my laptop, has made me sort of abandoning it for a while. Anyhow, I am still playing and sort of straining my own fingers. -.-"

Random: TITANIC orchestral music is the best!

Yes, I am a TITANIC fan. I wonder how many times I have repeated this? Countless.

IMSE class for today, it was so packed. Most of our juniors bring forward this course and ended up the seniors have to take chairs from other rooms since the place that we have class has not enough. Hope this will get fixed soon. Or else, I will suffocate and die in the crowd.

First Year, Second Semester

Done with the lectures for second day. The day did not start off well, I would say. During my first lecture, there was something wrong with my stomach but I just hold on until the end of it, went back to my hostel and get it settled. Need not further explanation for that.

Back to the topic, time flies, as usual, I am now in first year, second semester of my undergraduate studies and two years from now I will be having my internship. A bit early to talk about it now though. Unable to add any courses this time, I have only 14 credit hours. It's a blessing, I guess. At least I can focus more on non-academic matter. I plan to learn for my driving license this semester.

Courses for this semester:
1. MATERIAL & ENERGY BALANCE (MEB)
2. CHEMICAL ENGINEERING FLUID MECHANICS (FM)
3. ENGINEERING GRAPHICS (EG)
4. INTRODUCTION TO MATERIAL SCIENCE (IMSE)
5. STRUCTURED PROGRAMMING & DATABASE SYSTEM (SPDS)

MEB is the basic course of my program. It is a pre-requisite for courses of upcoming semesters. Cannot tackle this subject well, then my Uni life sure will be doomed. Yet to start our first lecture or lesson since the lecturer only gave a slight introduction and some more, came late for the very first class. Oh well, mostly did since we have no idea the lecturer would want a combined class as we are divided into two groups. Talking about lecturer, the slang reminded of my nightmare during Foundation, Physics lecturer but this one is a better version of him. haha

FM, interesting course I suppose. Our lecturer is new as he has just graduated from Netherland. He is bald, just like my dad. It turns out that he is Sarawakian. A funny guy, that is my first impression. Looking forward to enjoy the class as much as I could, although this course is so "Physics" to me.

EG is claimed to be the easiest course for this semester, supposedly. We'll see later.

SPDS, still could not figure out the rational of learning it but I think it will be a fun course, I hope. Young lecturer, and frankly, hardly to understand my first lecture. Too many terms. I am not so IT-minded. -.-"

IMSE, no idea because class only starts this Thursday. But, heard from those who were taking this subject last semester, it was not that easy. Well, good luck with that.

MEB, FM, SPDS, and EG, all these courses have labs session. This semester, mostly more on practical, I guess. Exciting semester! Courses sound cool, sound so "engineering". Haha. Timetable is yet to be finalized. Three things for sure: No night class, no class after 5pm and no class in Friday's evening. Cheers for that.

Wise lecturers we have this semester, make thing better. Now, I am contented. :)

First Day

Seem like someone expect me to update blog. How touching. haha

Anyway, lecture starts today and has attended my very first lecture, Engineering Graphics. What I heard from seniors is that this is the easiest course for this semester. Well, hope so. Also, my name was the first one to be called by the lecturer, lucky number one. Oh my! He can remember my name. Is my name really that, unique, can stick into someone's mind?

Whole evening was free and I get so bored in the room. Nothing to do. When night falls, I have meeting and need to do the minute. Now I started to get busy. At the same time, I have to arrange timetable for my group. Have it done few moments ago.

Feel so lazy now. Details in later posts. Tomorrow class at 8am. Great! Some issues need to settle as well with the management regarding our timetable, some obvious clashes and wrong timing. So inefficient.

*Sort of disappointed and upset with the arrangement. Will get it over soon.
