For ME students, during sem 5 we have to take a design module that will last for 2 years (ie 1 4 MC module each for sem 5 and sem 6 each). What we need to do for the module is form a team of about 6-8 people and take up a design project.
Initially, I opted to be in Wei Loon and Ian's team but just about a week ago I realized the whole team was filled with SEP students. SEP students will have to skip sem 6 of this module because they wont be here, meaning I will be alone next sem. So I randomly found some other people without a group and wont be leaving for anywhere next sem. Everything was fine initially, the few of the people I found are friendly Singaporeans. We elected a leader and signed up for a random sponsored project (sponsored meaning we will be designing something for a company outside of NUS). Random because we were too late for the dateline for choosing projects.
Just yesterday, our group leader left our group for another group because he is going for NOC next sem and NOC/SEP/IA students are not allowed to take sponsored projects. So the ME management decided to randomly assign a leader for the group........ and the lucky me was suddenly elected...... Another bad thing was, our group mentor (each group will have a Prof guiding them on the project) was away on holiday and will only be back in September........ We are supposed to start discussing this week.... zzzzz
The few of us met up for a brief meeting..... just to realize all of us have no idea what the company really wants us to do. Which means we will probably have to head down to meet the company representative by ourselves without guidance to listen on what they want us to design....
Hopefully everything goes well....
p.s. The company we were assign to is APL co. ltd. An international shipping company. The sad thing is.... I don't think they need many engineers in their company for internship... Was hoping on giving the company a good impression so I can get an internship for the 3 months holiday. Sigh........

Nice....
Very beautiful song... great vocals... mesmerizing melody.... just love the song.... one of the many good songs from the OST of NANA the anime.
Winter sleep
Lyrics: Eclipse
Music: OLIVIA・rui
It keeps coming back to me
I remember this pain
It spreads across my eyes
Everything is dull
Everyone's smiling, they're smiling
It pushes me far far away
I can't understand
Everything is blue
Can you hear me out there?
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
I'm gazing from the distance and
I feel everything pass through me
I can't be alone right now
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
I'm lost in a deep winter sleep
I can't seem to find my way out alone
Can you wake me
I know when I let it in
It hides love from this moment
So I guard it close
I watch the moves it makes
But it gets me, but it gets me
I wish I could understand how I
Could make it disappear, make it disappear
Anyone out there hear me now?
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
Kiss my lips
and maybe you can take me to your world for now
I can't be alone right now
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
Please make it all go away
Am I ever gonna feel myself again?
I hope I will

Sien daoz.....
I just sent my hard disk for check up..... something was wrong with it. Occasionally it will start making funny sounds and its lagging pretty badly nowadays..... no comp all the way till Tuesday... The bad thing is.. I did not back up my files.....hopefully they wont reformat it before asking me... If not a lot of my precious things will be gone... zzzzzzzz
On a brighter note, I bought a new phone. My old phone suddenly died on me. Luckily it died around the same time my contract expired so I could get a new phone for a much cheaper price. After thinking for a long time, I opt for LG Shine KU970!! PRETTY WEI THE PHONE!!! Functions are pretty ok, not bad really. SD238.... its quite cheap for the features + looks. The other phones I was looking at were all way above my budget. Currently, hunting for a screen protector.... The one that came with the phone sucks..... Going to drop off liow. If anybody knows where to get a good screen protector, please kindly let me know k?
Because of the phone... and the Kinabalu trip.. I'm currently a bit broke liow... Today I also spent a lot. Went for Rush Hour 3 this afternoon and then went to Settlers Cafe to celebrate Leo and Sarah's birthday. Will be the last day I'm spending..... The next few weeks I will be stinging on everything including food!!!!
Rush Hour 3 was good!!! It's really a damn funny show. The past 2 Rush Hour did not disappoint me and the newest one definitely did not too. Great show, worth the SD1o I spent for.....
Had a great time in Settlers Cafe... played a few games and stuff. Spent 3 hours in the place... A good way to officially end our holidays. Schools starts tomorrow morning... zzzzzzzz... I wish everybody good luck and to the freshies... hope you guys can get use to the study life here... I know I didn't.....
Last thing.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEO!!!!

Late nighters......
Yesterday night (or rather, this morning....) , few of the year 3's gathered at R6 lounge for board games after Fong Seng. Me, Kai Ju, Wei Loon, Wen Yeow, Aik Yong, Wei Lee, Sook Cheng, Elaine and Ferdy were the ones present.
They started by playing Chor Dai Dee for a few rounds then switched to Blokus for a few rounds but the main event was..... Risks!!!! 6 of us paired up into partners (ie. each team has 2 players) to make 3 teams or "alliance". The rest watched. The game, I have to say was pretty "chi kek" and funny. Strategies being discussed very thoroughly while others try to "sabo" opponents by playing mind games. Smart people, I was with.... Lol
The game lasted for about 4-5 hours. By the time it ended it was already 6 something. It was a long time since we played/talked till the wee hours in the morning. We used to do it quite often during our 1st sem but since the 2nd sem, everyone seems to be too busy. Its really a relieve that we can actually do this again... Really had fun, not just because my team won =D but because that night we were able to put all our worries aside and just play........ =)
