Some of the random pictures that I think worth sharing at the moment...hehe

from close-up, for those of you who are observance, you will know it's a A380 model,
it is the latest added to my collection of plane...lotsa thx to my sister

It's non other than the model of A380 9V-SKA of Singapore Airlines
first to fly A380
The model of the plane is so detailed that the engines' blades can turn if you blow it
A380 is currently my favourite aircraft..hehe

this is the picture taken from the place where I sit while I do my homework.
You can only see this nice scenery on non hazy days, you should know how polluted is the air here
Anyway, if you pay attention, you will notice a mountain with all the light on top,
that's Genting Higland....it's right of the twin towers

Time management

I know I have not updated my blog for quite some time, but hey, life as a second year university student is not that easy at all( I doubt that my 3rd and 4th year here will be tougher than 2nd year). Eventhough I'm taking only 6 subjects this semester which make it 18 credit hours in total, but *sigh* all of these is the core subjects of my programme. Darn, can you imagine all the tough subjects in one shot, Vibration, Mechanics of Materials, Engineering Maths III,Statistics, Aerothermodynamics,and Electric & Electronic Tech. Plus I'm quite busy as the assistant secretary for the Engineering Student society here.
Honestly speaking, I couldn't juggle my time well at first, I was a lil busy with my society stuffs, until I left behind a lot of my studies. I noticed this phenomenon happening after I failed 3 or more( some of the test results are never announced...I could be failing all...cheese, I'm just scaring myself) tests. Eventually, One of our lecturers demanded seeing me....that was when I noticed something fishy behind it. Anyway, the lecturer was kind enough to advice us( a few of us fail also) he kept on insisting us that we can do it actually, then he asked us why we fail ( like the normal standard procedure if you fail your test...It's what we call ISO syndrome ). So I told him that eventually. Guess what, I only started to 'tidy-up the mess' after the stern warning by the lecturer. He has awaken me that I have I spent too much time on other stuffs rather than studies. So, after the event, I decided to spend more time on studies, the activities stuffs only come after my studies. Studies should be put as priority once again. Now enters the 3rd week after I was given warning by the lecturer, I think I managed to catch up a lil bit of the studies...Thank God!!!
Anyway, Some updates about my life here for the first semester so far..
- I have move out of the college, for some of you still don't know about it. I'm active in societies, but the main reason why I moved out is because I wanna stay with my coursemates so that I can managed my studies more efficiently( which mean I can ask them questions whenever I have doubts)...
-Life is tough here....( like what I have described above ) plus all the assignments and never ending test that keeps going on from week 4 until yesterday. Gosh, they claim it to have 1st and 2nd test but it seems like the test doesn't have ending, week 4, week 5,6 ,7.....then week 9, 10 ...why can't they make it one shot...I'm so tired of tests...this situation can make students stress out though. That is the reason why I can't juggle my time well, some of the test I did not manage to pay attention to as I was busy with my activitivies like week 7. darn....
-trying to juggle my time...it shows a little success now....I try to juggle for my physical and spiritual needs as well...everything most do it moderately....
- I have not met some of my friends that I used to meet during my first year life especially those friends from matriculation...hehe...I still owe my friend a shirt and I haven't returned my friend's stuff since erm....beginning of the year??...hee
- I managed to find time now to do my stuffs like blogging today...yay!!dat's why time management is important...

Report....

This few days, it seems like the news in the country is 'steaming' up and all the news sold like hot cakes. On top of that, I can't wait to see what will happen next, could it be the end or just the climax or just the starting?? Lots of the news reported really caught my attention from the local news which seems never ending to the epic saga to the world news especially the economics section. Anyway, my interest on today's post is non of the above, I guess all of us are aware of the news that I'd mentioned earlier.
The news or perhaps the report that caught my attention today is this.
Yes, it is about the taxi in Malaysia...gosh, I totally agree with the statement. Really, it is awful to see this scenario happening. The one where they mentioned that Taxis in the KLCC is charging people aka "secara suka-hati' is really true. Just the other day, few weeks ago when I went back to Serdang from KLCC with my sister, this scenario happened. Just outside the Suria KLCC, you can see the sign that said beware of Taxi touts, I thought it will never happen there as the sign serve as a stern warning to not only the visitors but also the taxi operators. Nevertheless, those taxi operators still take advantage of people around. Even the local also they cheat aka 'telan'.
Luckily, my sister and I were not cheated. Thanks to my knowledge after being in KL for almost a year. As both of us trying to get a taxi, a taxi driver approached us and asked us where we are heading, so I told him Serdang. Then after looking at both of us ( I carried a big luggage which belongs to my sister...my sister held one small luggage as well )...He said" Serdang, ..erm RM 75...." beware of those taxi in red....some are good some are evil...haha

I was so shock of the price and the guy continued by giving a lot of reasons why he charged us so expensive...saying like " far lah...", "you carry luggage" and some more he added by saying that, it is hard to find people using meter in this area as we insisted on using meter for the journey. Deep inside my heart, I was like, you wanna eat me is it???I won't let you eat no matter what....
After that, we ignored the driver and walk away and into the mall again, where we try our luck on the other exit of the mall. I told my sister that, the price he gave is unreasonable as it is way too expensive. Might as well I borrow a car from my friend and drive it hear. The RM70 can be used to buy petrol that can last for a week on my friend's car. I told her that, the most they can charge is RM50 if they don't want to use meter. C'mon, I know the road back to Serdang from KLCC, just that I don't have a car. That guy treat me like I don't know anything about KL. Anyway, We were fortunate to find a taxi driver on the other exit of the mall that drives us on meter. He was kind enough to say that, it's up to you whether you want to use meter or the other way round. So we surely said meter lah...duh....
Mind you that time is almost to 430pm...Jam....so when he asked me whether I wanna use Highway (smart Tunnel) I reply yes. So the tip here is this, In order for you to save money on the meter especially during peak time, do use highway instead, you might save more...toll fee in Smart tunnel only cost Rm2...
The taxi driver also explain to us why the other taxi driver was charging that amount of fare as we told him about it. He told us that, we are charged higher than expected because we are carrying luggages....they will cheat those people with luggage as most of the time, those who carries luggage are tourists.At the end of the day, our taxi fare only cost us...guess how much, only RM25...3 times lower than the amount of the stupid taxi tout.....
the fare is only rm23 eventually, but because he charged us RM1 for the luggages and also we did give him tips for being a good and honest taxi driver. My principle is simple, if that particular taxi driver is being honest by using meter and not cheating, I might consider give the extra tips as incentive for being the only few cabbies operator in the country that are honest. It's hard to find honest taxi driver though.

Ok I guess I shall get back to my study now, tomorrow will be my Electric and Electronic paper... Mesh current, Thevenin theorem,Norton's Theorem, Superposition theorem,Node voltage method and most importantly AC source here I come....
Gosh, I'm so sick of those E & E stuffs....I'm not meant to be an E & E guy....not my type...darn....

The B777

As I was looking for any corporate videos of Airlines company I came across this. Eventhough, it is quite old, maybe roughly 11 years back, but its worth knowing that Malaysia Airlines operates the first B777 which from my perspective was an achievement at the time. No doubt, I always 'hang-out' at youtube nowadays to watch documentaries or anything that suites my taste...hehe.

hopefully you will know something new right???
Happy independence people!!!

back....

Yes, literally I'm back on blogging again after all the hu-ha that happened throughout the 6 weeks as 2nd year University students. The one of the most important reason for why I was absent in posting blog was my house here did not have a internet connection. Forget about the internet connection in the faculty. I went online in faculty in those time were just to finish my assignment or did my research or do some important matters. No time for blogging as well...more post will be up soon....let's put a smile on that face!!!!hahaha
