I am stressed

Yes, I am stressed. It seems wierd, I have time to play psp, yet I don’t have enough time to play it. Yet, I still have other things need to be settled. Assignments, events, club activities, just to name a few. I have been using Google Calender to manage my daily task, but it seems insufficient.

I am not going to post some emo stuff here, but I do hope someone can share with me on how they manage their time. I am not complaning 24 hours a day is not enough, but how to do you make use of your time efficiently.

Putting Z-Core and Z-lectron to rest

Been working out the career fair website for 4 days (minus 8 hours of sleep and 2-3 hours of toilet breaks and meals) straight on this two machines. While most of the simple graphic design and web building(yes! building, Microsoft Expression Web 2 is so fool proof that I did most of web page using mouse. Minimal hand coding) were done on Z-lectron, previewing (I want to know how ugly it will look on 800×600 and 1024×768 resolution) and oraganizing the information for the web is done on Z-core. I have control of both machines using only a mouse and a keyboard. All thanks to Synergy (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/).  I can control both machines without the need for kVM switch! Best of all, it is open source, and it is free!!!

Here is the sneak preview of how the career fair website may look like (This is not the final product). Remember, you seen this first on cereal87.iantam.net!!!

Rules for MMU Freshies

Freshie is a loose term for freshman in MMU. Ever since I came to MMU, the word freshmen is like taboo. Maybe freeshie is a word used by the seniors inadvertly to mock the juniors.

Well, being here in MMU for 4 consecutive years and I am still in Beta (2nd year degree equivalent), I have the bragging rights as a senior. And over the years, we have seen juniors coming in after our batch. Just when we thought we were the pathetics ones when weclo first came to MMU, the juniors are even more pathetic than us.

I didn’t make all the rules myself, rather, it is compiled from word of mouth and modified from a chain letter.

1. You are a FRESHMAN. Only we, the seniors have the rights to call you freshie.
2. Don’t brag how many seniors you know or which seniors you know. The more you do it, the more we can tell you are a stupid freshman.
3. Don’t hang your ID around your neck. We do not care who you are unless you are a female and you are attractive.
4. Don’t think you are smart if you can escape from being fined by the security. We all have done it.
5. Don’t bother introducing yourself to senior girls. Either they are taken or they are not available.
6. Don’t wear formal attire to class. When you sweat, it looks disgusting and no girls will not come close to you. Only wear it for presentation and change immediately after that.
7. Don’t brag how smart you are in class or else we will throw our projects and assignments to you.
8. Don’t try to sit behind the class. Those seats belong to your seniors. You should sit in front and concentrate.
9. Don’t act like you are a senior. The senior girls know you are really a freshman. It is written all over you.
10. Don’t even tell us “You were once freshies too”. Yes, we were once, but we ain’t anymore. So shut up and keep your head low.
11. Don’t think you are cool coz you went clubbing. We all have done it.
12. Don’t brag how many times you went to the gym. The bended weight bars in the gym are speaks for itself how long we have been visiting the gym.
13. Don’t try to cheer or scream ‘You rock’ at grandhall concert. They ain’t cool coz you have to sit on the chairs while watching the rock performances. Its the rules and it sucks.
14. Don’t try to brag how many times you got summoned for having cigarettes in hostel. We will think you are dumb enough not to hide it during spot checks.
15. Don’t ever remind the lecturer about giving assignments or when it is due. You are ought to get beaten by the seniors sitting behind if you do it.
16. Don’t ever make fun of your seniors who are taking subjects such as Math Tech 1, Engine Math 1, Circuit Theory, CP1, we will make sure you will suffer in the class for the rest of the semester.
17. If you know of a senior who is not in the class when the lecturer is calling his/her name, the answer is not ‘I saw him/her in the previous class’. You are to keep your mouth shut.
18. A note to all freshmen guys: Do not go around bragging how many girlfriends you have or how many girls you dated in MMU. We all know your dick haven’t grow yet and you are lying.
19. A note to all freshmen girls: Do not go around camwhoring and posting your pictures. You have nothing to show… yet. Do not attempt to wear your little sister’s clothes. The only seniors that are going to see your pictures are those sick, perverted nerds or otakus. Even the geeks’ girlfriends are better than you.
20. A note to all freshmen: You own the lowest possible social ladder. Stop hitting on the seniors. Consider yourself lucky if you aren’t beaten up by their boyfriend/girlfriend.
21. It’s no big deal if you touched a boob before. We all have done it.
22. Stop boasting about how a senior treat you nicely and bring you out for yamcha. Probably they just felt sympathic.
23. When we have seniors only party, freshmen are to stay guard at the door. If you attempt to have freshies’ party, we will make sure everyone in the campus are invited.
24. Stop thinking life is though and shit in MMU. We will make it even shittier.
25. You are not as hot as the graduating girls of 107XXXXXXX, 106XXXXXXX, 105XXXXXXX, or before. You have small boobs, small ass and you are like a 12 y/o.
26. Freshmen must give up seats on the T429 bus to your seniors. We have spent 3-4 years standing, and now its your turn.
27. We don’t care to remember your name. Your name is ‘108′ to us.
28. We all went thru these shit. That’s why we are your senior!

Consider this as a message from us 107, 106, 105 or before.

Congratulation to those who are graduating this June 2009. You don’t suck anymore.

Do not wake the beast

Yerp, you got it right. I am done with the exam. Thus I deserve all the rest I could get before CNY!!!

Study Habit

I still quite remember how I did my study back in my secondary school. I have done almost every single possible exercises that I have needed, things get into my head easily, all I needed the day before exams was alot of rest and sleeps. I only remembered I flipped through my reference books for SPM the night before exams. And all I got was this:

Despite having 2B’s for SPM, I was still a pelajar cemerlang =.=

Then, when I come in to MMU, during my foundation, I have study group. Or was it groups. I would just fit in anywhere with anyone who wanted to study. I was a 3 pointer back then.

Then this was what happened to my room back during the days when I was in engineering.

I would spend most of the time in the room, ocasionally outside studying. My room would be in a mess, notes around, everywhere, room disorganised. Best of all, I would never fail to not not fail a major subject every long trimester.

Then now, in FIT all I needed was my bed and my laptop. All I freaking need to do was to go through the slides, freaking remember every damn thing and hope I don’t forget it by the time I get into exam. Not to boast, but IT subjects mostly requires you to only remember. Not to think critically. Engineering’s maths and programming paper can put FIT papers to shame. If I am tired, I would just doze off on my bed.
