Full Day Out

It's the Champions League finals, AC had their revenge winning 2-1 with some lucky moments and I was watching it Live, in front of television. Nope, it's not shown on channel 5 or any other mediacorp channel, as they only support our very own league, I went to chubbs house to watch. It's my second visit there.

I should have reached earlier, but abit ho-lan, and i reached only at 10pm. In preparation for the match, we slept at 11 plus and wake up just before the match starts. Chubbs's room was capacious, around 2 times that of mine. Well, that's the difference in living in a pidgeon's hole, and living in a big nest.

We watched the match with another 2 of chubbs's cousin. The match was a disaster for Liverpool. They were owning until one of their rax got cleared in the 45th min by a free kick. The second half was more open, and once again Liverpool lose another rax in the 83rd min, and it's all but over. They did down 1 of Milan's rax in the 89th min, but it wasn't enough to convert the outcome of the game.

The crowning of the new champion wasn't interesting so we din't watch. Early next morning, I followed chubbs to watch the killer zombies in action, before we had breakfast at Mcdonald. As we are going to watch Pirates of the Carribeans in the late morning, and it's still early after breakfast, we went back to his house to slack a bit. Too tired after watching the early morning match.

Later in the day, we went to Plaza Sing to collect my handphone which i had sent for repair, and watch the movie. Since collecting the handphone was the main reason that we are watching the show today. The show was quite funny, and lasting for nearly 3hrs, it's worth the money watching the show.

The final event of the day was lunching at Carls' Jr, before going home. The journey home was torturing as on many occasions, i almost fell asleep while standing up. When i reached home, my aunt called and told me 三缺一..

finally back

HA, the service is finally back!!

An uneventful 2 weeks of holiday has passed, and i'm still idling around, waiting for the results and ICT that will come in the next 2 weeks. Guess i have to start my training all over again for the IPPT as my fitness had declined, not running for a month or so. Went to play soccer with my secondary school friends last weekend, but couldn't even hold out for a few games. I still have the pace, but the stamina and the skills have dropped tremendously.

Things just get worse when my phone suddenly stopped functioning all together. Now I have to bring it to plaza singapura to have it repaired.. Barely bought for 2 months, and it's already spoilt..

My desktop is also ready for collection at my relative's house, but haven't visited them for 2 weeks. Don't really know when I'll get it back, just have to wait and see.

Error

So this is the best i can do, edit my previous post to make it a current post. This is the error message i see when i click on new post:

The Truth

I know, truth usually hurts, but I have to tell you the truth of SOC students.

1. Being an SOCian doesn't means I'm techno-whizz.
2. Being an SOCian doesn't means I'm any useful for repairing my own computer if it fails.
3. Being an SOCian doesn't means I'll be able to diagnose the root of the problem when a computer fails
4. Being an SOCian doesn't means I'm able to maintain my network's setting if it goes wrong.
5. COM1 only gives basic programming in JAVA.
6. We will be streamed into different majors by the end of year 2.

Most probably, I'll be going to Computer Science. Other majors include Communication and Media, Infomation System, E-Commerse, Computer Engine(SOC). This means that I should be doing more of programming and I still won't be able to repair my own PC if it spoils. So please if my computer fails, don't ask me why I send it for repair..

The time I've been waiting for

Finally, the exams is over. After 2 weeks of time wasting going to MPSH for the 5 modules, and not able to do most of the questions, I can only hope that most of the others who took the same modules as me weren't able to do their papers too, then i will be able to get a better result than what I'm expecting. But for now, I'll just be optimistic and think that others also cannot do the papers, so I can have a good 3 weeks break before the result is out.

Though it's finally the long awaited holidays, I do not know what I'll be doing in this period. The ICT in the middle of nowhere spoilt the whole holiday. Another week of time-wasting going back to camp, for only 100 bucks. Perhaps with IPPT, another 200 for a silver, if I can still manage.

Road to the last paper

The preparation for the final battle has finally begun yesterday. Module is MA1505 - maths 1, and I've employed a world class tutor to help me with this, so I went to a mcdonald in AMK where we meet to have breakfast before the tuition starts.

First up, mid-term test which I got 6/12, looks scary when I did it, but the tutor made light work of it, and spotted where some of my mistakes are in my workings during the test.

The rest of the day was chapter by chapter revision with occasional practise question to work on. From the explanations, the module seemed like a very easy paper, but for some reasons, I wasn't able to do the questions when the time call for it.

Whatever it is, it's do or die time now. Need to do more questions to get the hang of solving maths questions, since according the the tutor, experience will make you pro, and it's a proven fact since he has become very pro at using shadowraze of shadow fiend with lots of experience playing it.
