Brain Overload...

The past 2 weeks were the most stressful weeks I had. Assignments, lab demos, project analysis report...etc. The most stressful part is doing my 3 semester project analysis report. The fact that I am doing the project alone makes it even more stressful. Do not get me wrong, doing project alone is not bad, just that there is 1 disadvantage that is brainstorming. I got my classmates to show me their project reports. They have made me realized how simple minded I am! There were a lot of stuffs that I did not think of. Guess I am not one of those people with many ideas. There was also a class test on Tuesday on circuits, I scored 4/10. I have forgotten a very important rule for currents, i.e. currents always flow to non-resistance path...

The past 2 weeks, my brain has been digesting a lot of information, making out head and tail on new things being taught in lecture. Every hour will be thinking about school work even during bathing! I am also losing sleep and losing my leisure times! There is usually a 1-2 hr where I am simply doing nothing, just surfing the net, stare at the wall, play games, write my post...etc. Those times are gone!

There was 1 thing that helped me survive the past 2 weeks, it was Australian Idol! It had reached the semi-final (top 30) by that time. There is a rock chick in the 1st group and a funky blues chick in the 2nd group. Those 2 are my favorites and they are through to the finals. The funky blues chick can even be considered my idol already! It is the 1st time that I declared myself as a fan of a person. I am a fan of Liverpool football club, a fan of sci-fi show (eg.startrek). I am attracted to songs more than the singers but this time is different. I have the same feeling of watching Liverpool soccer match when I am seeing the funky blues chick performing. Those who want to see their pictures, here is the link. The rock chick's name is Tarni and my idol's name is Milly!

The pace have slowed down a bit after submission of assignments and my project analysis report is near to completion. My leisure time is coming back. I have been playing old games from Nintendo and Sega on my laptop using emulator.


These games are not as addictive as playing new games because they had already been played. I am currently playing 'Shining Force II' using Sega emulator. It was a very popular game in those days. The 2D graphic is not bad; Phantasy Star 4's graphic is the best. Here is a snap shot of the battle scene.

Joke Per Post (If I Remember)
Mexican American War

During the Mexican/American war, an intense long standoff occurred along the front. For days and days neither side made any advances. Finally, an American general had a bright idea.
He aimed his rifle to the Mexican trenches and yelled "Hey Juan!"
A soldier jumped up and replied "What?"
The general shot him dead. This continued for three days.
A Mexican general decided that two could play this game and decided to try it out. He called out "Hey John!!"
An American replied "John isn't here......is that you Juan?"
The Mexican general stood up, "Yeah!"...
