tests for core modules.. well 1 core. 1 ‘not so core’
my computer graphics is a technical elective but i wanted to take it as an unrestricted education module so that i can S/U it (definition of S/U in previous post i tink :P 2 lazy 2 retype it / copy-paste it here :P:P)
so now since i cant S/U it due to ‘the system’ *shrug* i will have 2 take it as a techincal elective and it being graded.

its an open bk test so we’ll just have 2 wait and c what happens :|:P
with saying that.. i tink i shld hit the hay early 2day.. get some good rest :P.. maybe :P:P

well thats what i keep thinkin 2 myself esp w/ my comp graphics test on sat.. :'(:”(
i cant declare it as S/U (satisfactory/unsatisfactory) ie it does count to the final grade as long as u get above a C. ok i believe i can get better than a C but i fear it might affect my current average, esp when im teetering on the border of 2 classes :|
sigh… got electronics test as well b4 that on that day :'(
at least graphics is open bk…

crap.. i find i cant type properly right now.. my left hand really ‘dying’ while typing.. need to play more fps :P:p

hehe a nice flash while spell checking ‘teetering’ :P
Here it is

anyway.. i tink i better sleep soon.. got plax in my mouth rite now. :P

lets c…
sat went 2 IES EOGM at Mandarin hotel. nice food!! :D:D hehe salmon :D
and we got mice!!!!

hehe..

lets c.. sat spent practically whole day trying 2 learn assembly.. didnt help much, tho on sunday everything finally came 2gether, thank goodness.
assembly actually makes sense :P hehe.. but ‘wasting’ a lot of time on it.. it is demanding and i feel they r demanding 2 much esp when they dont really teach us anything also since its a completely diff language compared 2 C / Java…

been doin that as well as the HP project as well as studyin 4 2 tests this coming sat.. :|:|
sigh. i tink im gonna S/U Comp graphics.. its not ‘that’ hard… but i feel like 2 enjoy it more i will S/U it and appreciate it more than trying 2 get that good a grade 4 it :P need 2 focus on my other modules anyway… EDM mid term 19th march.. or arnd there :| so many eqtns!! :'(:”(:”( then econs… sigh….. electronics havent touched yet and i have a test on sat :”(:”(:”(

also check out the clie TH55 review
brighthand got good stuff…
the next palm OS (cobalt) details here
and an article of whats NOT in cobalt is here
still no real file manager in cobalt.. just seems weird.. but it would seem wierd if u have a file that u cant use on the machine.. but i kinda like being able 2 categorise my files in folders like in Windows :O (me ‘praising’ m$ :P:P) but true.. i do like that…
anyway.. wait till cobalt comes out then :D:D

ps.. microsoft just announce another security flaw… so patch up… as usual.. sigh :P

4 those who use Friendster and the like.. u mite wanna read this

another thing.. yesterday went 2 school and actually made $$$!!! :D:D
after comp graphics lecture.. there was a survey abt msn messenger and ICQ
the good things was.. each participant was paid $10!!!! :D:D:D
10 ‘free’ bucks!! :D:D
i guessings the ppl had links 2 m$ or something.. coz i dont really c who else would want such statistics so badly… $10 a person is quite a lot…
guess M$ just wanting 2 know their standing in the IM wars…

anyway… had 2 long days.. yesterday 9-12 and 4-6. 2day 10-12 and 2-5..
2moro at least no lab.. but next week there will be :|:|:|
then on thurs comp graphics lab also :|:|

now really wondering if i shld go 2 IES movie marathon this sat…
any opinions on that? shld i go?
but i need 2 work… esp 4 test next week… (un)luckily the test is on friday.. after 3 days of consecutive labs.. :| sigh… life doesnt sound good…
