最近

最近，我终于尝试到玩橄榄球的滋味了!在ksah五年都没有机会碰到橄榄球，所以一直以来都好想玩一玩。我和几位sarawak的朋友在UTP的大草场玩简单的橄榄球，没有撞来撞去那种，只是拍背。他们很耐心的从基本教起，如基本条规，传球和踢球的方式。橄榄球实在很有趣，可能是没有被撞倒吧！

I'm starting to like playing rugby!

最近，我吃糖果吃上瘾了。到店里一次买lima puluh biji，但是两个星期就吃完了。算一算，平均一天吃3.5粒。其实，起初，我买糖果是为了保持口气清新，就是要：饭后一粒糖，口气“pang gui lang” （hokkien）-“香过人”。但是后来读书或上课时就很想咬东西，结果一粒接一粒，上瘾了。现在正在“戒糖”。

I have a sweet tooth, that will never come loose..

最近，开夜车时都是咬面包。赶工赶到累了，闷了，就把面包咬成照片里的形状了。

最近，星期六都有 Manufacturing Technology Lab。周末只剩下一天而已。最长的是从早上八点到下午五点。 其实很懒惰去，但是有些Lab又很好玩，能多懂几样东西，如：CNC and Conventional Milling, Lathe and Welding。我觉得这是目前唯一一课让我们比较了解工程师工作的科目。

最近，我们参加了paintball比赛，队名是PakBeTo (打不倒 in hokkien)。 那是我的第一次玩paintball，满好玩的，只是子弹不足。我被射中两抢，黑青了。

PakBeTo 这名是我以前从某队的Slogan想到的。

Slogan: Tomato。。Potato。。PakBeto!!!

最近，我买了一双球鞋，很喜欢，但是踢球时，觉得不是很好踢。无论如何，这是我的第一双 futsal 鞋，而且不是很便宜哦。当然，有了这双鞋以后，我就比较常踢球了，希望球技能赶快进步多一些，不要每次都觉得技不如人。

最近，天气不好时，没有地方晒衣服，以下的情况就会出现。

Sat Oct 2, 2010

1am, back from basketball with a couples of friends. Still having high sports spirit, because long time didn't go for sports. Saw the roundabout in front of hostel, suggest to play football there, and there we go, started the kicking. The football game: 5 guys 1 ball, in the center of the roundabout, cars and motorcycles passing... Heard one motorcyclist saying "Inilah style!".




Suddenly the ball was going out of the road and a Kancil is on its path. Quickly try to stop the ball. Accidentally stepped on the ball and got one of my foot out in the road. The driver slowed down, gave me a smile, and drove off. Lucky me.. and stupid me for trying, should have left the ball! Slept at 3.30am after some time on the web.

<-----This pic pasted is the roundabout.

Morning 7.54am woke up, stuffed three pieces of gardenia bread with kaya into mouth, rushed for saturday lab. Longest lab ever, 8am to 5pm, Drag my body back to room, saw the other packet of expired bread, asked friends to go feed fish beside UTP lake. Fish-feeding at about 6.30pm. UTP fish looks hungry in the picture, fighting for gardenia breads. Gardenia can use this picture for advertistment, but perhaps advertistment in the marine world. Fish feeding is not so fun, so change to fishing catching. UTP fish are just as clever as UTP students, so hard to catch.




But still, UTP students out-wisdomed UTP fish. Gotcha, little fish! 3 more fish "volunteered" to keep him/her accompanied in the end. They are in the hostel now.

9.00pm, started blogging. Think a long time how to write it, at last try the diary type post. Doesn't really seem like one though, doen't know english diary format.

Will be in V5 cafe watching ManU vs Sunderland at 10.00pm. Must win la, ManU!

Blood Donation

Don't get scared by the blood stain ya. This is not a scary 18SG post. But still, viewer's discretion is advised. Hahaha.

I always donate blood but everytime, mosquitoes are the nurses that help me through with that. I have been thinking of donating blood since secondary school but I never have the chance. Today, I went for my true first blood donation held in UTP. Maybe I've done too much "dosa" in UTP, need to go "buang dosa" a bit, haha. For the blood donation, I've even missed my SP lecture and a pop-quiz. Nevermind la, at least I missed it for something good this time. Below is the report:


______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Aim: To donate blood.

Problem statement: Will I chicken-out for my first blood donation?

Hypothesis: I successfully donate blood and I did it like a man. (LOL)

Materials and apparatus: a phlebotomy needle, a flexible collection bag, blood, lollipop, forms, weigh balance etc.

Procedures:
1) fill up forms regarding personal details and health status. (quite a lot)
2) weigh myself (must be 45kg minimum)
3) test for blood pressure (pressure quite high---worrying)
4) test for blood type
5) fill up forms again and sign for don't know what la
6) then put a lollipop into mouth
7) lie on a bed and get a little nervous (*no. 6 & 7 standard procedures, must follow)
8) start blood donation
9) claim free milo and tiger biscuits
10) go back with a plaster on arm

Discussions:
1) Nice experience.
2) Blood pressure is quite high, so need to beware of it.
3) It is good to finally know my blood type.
4) It is actually quite meaningful for me although they just took 350ml of blood from me. Hope it helps to make a difference between life and death.
5) The lollipop is quite nice.

Conclusion:
The hypothesis is accepted. I successfully donated blood and I did it like a man. We live as a community so do help others if we afford to do so. We will never know when we need helps from others one day. So, if you fulfil the basic requirements, go for blood donation!!!

After the blood donation, I went for lecture and moral presentation. Exhausted, I went back room to sleep after my lunch and missed my assignment meeting with my friend. Berdosa again~~ Haiz... Need to go for more blood donation, I guess.

报应

Hero：我要杀了他为你讨回公道！

~

Victim：不要啊！不要！你冷静点啊！杀人是要坐监牢的！

~

Hero：我管不了这么多了！今天我一定要杀了他！

~

Victim：他做了这么多罪恶，你让天收他吧！

~

Hero：我就是要替天行道！

~

Victim：不要啊，你别去啊！我不想你有事！

~

(然后两个人就抱在一起哭)

连续剧里常常都可以看到这一幕。我常常都在心里想：“要等天收他是要等到几时啊？”都认为有能力的活，就自己行动。

今天，我等到了。早上，我衣服洗了后，就晒在宿舍外的吊衣线上。下午，看见乌云密布，便赶快去收衣服。谁知道看见衣服都被人推到一边，都皱了。第一个反应就想把他的衣服都推到另一边，但是又怕他出来看到时向我的衣服报仇。（当然，没有像连续剧里有女主角出来阻止我，说不想我有事。多希望有啊！哈哈哈，推人家的衣服罢了嘛）心里一狠，还想把他衣服丢下楼呢！我不敢的啦。。。

最后想一想，看看天就快下雨了，你抢别人的位置来晒你的衣，那就给雨淋到湿透透吧！天收你啊！老天现在帮你洗衣服！Serve you right, buddy!

故事里要传达的劝告是“不要抢我晒衣的位！！！”

Tangan Gatal

Recently I came across a software called Folder Lock. It is used to lock or encrypt any desired folder in your window. It appeared interesting and I tried it.

Everything went well until one day when I tried to lock almost all files to see if there was a maximum capacity for it. It was 1am and I would be going Pangkor the other day. Tangan gatal lo.. After I locked them, the folder lock software stopped functioning whenever I try to access it. Then butterflies flew all over my stomach and I scratched my head until I wanna cry. It is because 80% of my C drive documents and files are inside. Thinking of unstalling the software but scared of losing my files, I was blank. I spent the whole night looking for solution but nothing applied proved successful.

It was 8am and I managed to catch an hour sleep, then I headed for Pangkor Island. I could not really leave this problem behind my mind and I had to bring it along to Pangkor. But I did have fun in Pangkor. When I was back to UTP, I finally decided to risk all my files uninstalling Folder Lock. It was then that I realised that we have to enter Folder Lock to uninstall it. I CAN'T ENTER!!! Again, I spent the day searching for solutions but all my time was wasted for nothing.

Before I off my laptop, I gave system restore one last try. Miraculously, it was a success! I got all my musics, movies, series, pictures and academic documents back! I was so happy that I wanna shout out loud, but my roommate was asleep by that time. So, I ran out my room and gave a shout, followed by a sigh of relief. Sorry neighbours if I had you awaked. Then I was back in my room writing this blog post.

I am truly relieved and Berbatovs hat-trick which made ManU winning 3-2 over Liverpool made my night. Anyway my night left only a couple of hours as it is 3am now. Having lectures at 8am somemore.... One problem gone, the others continue coming.. What to do? This is life. Tahan lo...

我是一台风扇

我是一台风扇。我入世后第一次张开双眼时，四周一片漆黑，直到一位非常英俊的少年将困着我的盒子打开，让我看到这个世界。这俊俏的少年就是我的主人-TCC。哈哈!
-

-

他把我带到他超热的大学宿舍去。从那天起，我就会在我主人需要我的时候毫无怨言地为他服务。他每次上课回房时都是满头大汗的，衣服也湿透了。他有时脸上带着笑容，有时却愁眉苦脸，令我很好奇是发生了什么事。但是无可否认的，只要我一开始旋转我的手，他就会变得比较开心。主人对我非常满意，还给我取了个名-SuperFan，一直说我很power！

-

主人有一次竟把我当成他手提电脑的Cooling Pad。Cooling Pad，你可看到我在主人心目中的地位了吧！

（inspired by primary school's chinese essay-自述）

感谢父亲为我买了一台风扇，顺便用第三人称称赞称赞自己，哈哈。。。

Free Fall

Free fall is something like the motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it, neglecting air pressure and friction. In my memory, I have personally experienced free fall, not once, not twice but three times. The first experience was in Genting Highlands. I was 16, on a Genting trip with friends, still with some courage, at least enough to dare myself up the Genting Highlands Space Shot ride. The free fall is about 2-3 seconds, if not mistaken. I can't really feel my seat for a moment. The safety belt is the only thing attaching me together. But as the thing was descended mechanically and I was pulled down, so I think it doesn't make it a free fall then.
Free fall or not, nice experience though.



Although I didn't manage to try on flying fox in the National Service, I was able to have that experience in a camp a year ago. It was like a 0.256788345 second free fall before the safety belt tied on my back got stretched taut. Hahaha. And the flying fox I had, of course, was not as extreme as the picture attached below. Anyway, flying fox is really worth second trying.


The picture below was a snapshot taken when I was on a Sawarak trip, weeks ago. You can see a half naked guy there climbing up the big boulder. There, I saw the Pro"s" jumping with style from the peak of that boulder. Maybe there's the training place the Olympic diving gold medalist. Hahaha. My friend dared me for a jump and I took the challenge. While climbing up, I realised that it was actually higher than it looked, so I started with the half height. A deep breathe, a leap, and I was in the water. COOL!!! Then I went for the higher grounds and eventually the highest point (really tak takut mati). The jump didn't allow you time to shout, as I was on air for only about 1 second. I should have recorded the jump for my grandchild to show what grandpa was capable of !!!

Every free fall is quite scary but everytime when you have your feet back on the ground, your heart will shout:"Let's go again!" Real brave ya, so what about bungee jump and skydiving? For now, no thanks.. Too extreme...

Let's do some calculation and see if I still remember what my Physics teacher taught.

*

*

For free fall in Sarawak:

*

- v = u + gt

- v = gt (u = 0, let t = 1 s)

- v = (9.81)(1)

- v = 9.81 m/s = 35km/h

*

And are you driving with that speed on road? You should try the jump and compare the feeling, maybe you won't be driving fast on the road then, hahaha.
