Monday...

What a start to the new week.....all 4 of us got a shock when we were told that there will be another assessment of our vehicle project....tis time round, an integrated systems assessment...and we had not even started on our PCB design.....btw....PCB refers to Printed Circuit Board, not some other vulgarity which some ppl might be imagining....

Aniwaiz, i was reali sianz when i heard it....well, I don't wan to mention all that shit.....but somehow or rather, we came through it all....and i consider it personally a small success cos although i took almost an entire dae to finish drawing the board's diagrams....it feels good now...i feel more relaxed.....but dat doesn't mean i can afford to slack....tis wk is critical...it is....cos there is still the major proj...which we might not hav sufficient time to touch...and i hav 2 labs and another proj meeting....

it has totally reached a point when i juz feel like throwing everythg aside and simply don't care....but i noe i won't do dat......in the past, likely....now, impossible....
Sometimes, i reali wonder how an electrical engineer's life is like......surely it can't be on par or even worse than an electrical engineering undergrad???
cos if it is, i can't imagine being one....it's totally crazy......electrical engineering is one of the most xiong faculties at university level....closely rivalled by medicine, chem engineering and computer engineering....
i've almost reached my saturation point.....tink they saw for themselves this aftn......i suddenly packed up my stuff at abt 10mins before Fiona was meeting us....and i wanted to go out of the lab to take a breather....

well, aniwaiz, somehow, after dat, i juz endured and endured and pushed and pushed myself....and now here i am, taking a short break frm work.....
well, tis is one of the 2 PCB boards which i was drawing todae....tis one took me like almost 3.5hrs...

PCB board design....looks scary? it certainly is.....more than 3hrs to draw and plan the routing...



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During our lunch break, we tried to motivate each other and cracked some jokes...hahaz....as usual, our sometimes lame but funny jokes.....
Then, zhiwei commented on sth.....he said dat after tinkin thru all his frens, i resemble him the most....not in terms of looks but in terms of character and maybe likes/dislikes...etc....well, my sentiments exactly....we certainly share many idential traits.....
well, he shld be happy to hear the following statement.....hmm, i feel that he is abit more intelligent than me....hehez....yah yah....i mean it lah, i noe u r reading....don try to kaysiao and say no lah....
i seldom concede that someone is smarter than me, yah, cos i'm very thick-skinned....but when i do say it, i mean it.....

Although tis sem is ultra xiong.....we've all grown even closer tog....which is good....in life, there are alwaiz tradeoffs.....for our free time and brain cells, we've gained friendship....gained knowledge....amongst other things.......which is good....

well....supposed to say other things but got carried away chatting with a new fren online....frm the NVBC clique....hahaz....so....another time.....

for now, study awhile more den sleep oredi.....wanted to sleep after i came back juz now but had to start on the PCB immed....Anyhow....

We cAn do it.....and we must do it!
