Stress is piling up~

This week i had my first lab lesson... past Monday i had my first programming lab lesson. It's kind of fun, i think... haha. We used linux os... Opening programs and doing some commands seems tedious and dull... But not bad la... Since it's quite like using MS-DOS which i do have some experience when i'm young. I used to play my cousins' computer then. That time, we're still in the DOS era~ haha... I also had my first electronics lab lesson... We used oscilloscope, digital multimeter, function generator, etc. Never use them before, quite scary when u on the power supply. There's a noise coming out and it's like giving you a warning, "touch me and you'll be electrocuted!!" Haha~ Scary~

The tutorials are getting harder and harder... I'm beginning to lag a bit behind... Oh no~ cannot~ Better pull up my socks! There's a meet-the-mentor session and i got to meet my mentor for the whole of my stay in NTU... After that there's also free 1gb thumbdrive for each of us~ cool~ haha. I also went for my Fundamentals of Management tutorial... Wah~ got lotsa girls in the class~ haha~ eh... it's not really the point haha. What am i thinking about? Hehe... What intimidated me is that the people in the class is really very outspoken and confident. They've a lotsa ideas to share and they possess a certain high standard of english~ I'm very impressed by them... I believe most are from english speaking families... Man~ I'm facing rather tough challenges... 我会加油~!


Haha~ anyway, these are some of the photos i took last Saturday...

So many people when we reached!!

Some of the fireworks pics i took.

Building
My best pic of the day~ I like this building at night~ But can someone enlighten this mountain tortoise (me), What building is this? haha

Riverside
The sign reads Riverside *something*... Nice effect i think haha

CafeIguana
At first, we intended to go Cafe Iguana, but due to not enough seats, we switched to Berwerks...

Due to poor light at night and my shaky hands, thus the fireworks like appeared quite weird... But i like the effects! haha~ Need a tripod to take pictures of fireworks next time~! Hehe...

Yesterday met up with my primary school friends! Wow~ this time is the gang i always mingled with last time... Best buddies~ We used to play before school, during school, after school~ even when there's no school! haha! Glad to meet up again~ Though there's still some didn't managed to meet up... It's really hard to gather the old gang again ya? haha~ Anyway, we went to Khatib to fish prawn! It's my first experience to fish something! Cool~ got followed my Dad when i'm young to fish once... But i didn't ask him to bring me fish when i'm older~ haha. Don't know why. Hehe... Fishing something is fun! Especially when the prawn ate the bait, the string responded and get pull down~ And finally the struggling and finally managed to pull it out~ Really damn shiok! I only fished 4 prawns in total~ not much but for a beginner should be ok la~ hehe. 1 hour 14.90 dollars, 2 hours have ½ hour free~ haha~ We rented for 2 rods and 2 ½ hours. For the first hour, i think we only managed to fish only one prawn~ Hehe. But later, there's a uncle saw us so pathetic so he actually tried to help us. He taught us how to put the bait properly so that the prawn will get hook, and he also told us some good fishing spot~ hehe... Then slowly the rate of prawn getting hooked went up~ haha~ Really damn fun~ I want to fish again~ I want to fish real fish or something else~ Hehe.
