Today I had my Mathematical Programming exam. I think I did well for the first two questions, but I did the last question wrong. My lecturer told us the answer should be unbounded solution, but most of us got 2 optimal solutions! Our mathematical model was wrong! Thus, we might get nil for that question. Upon reaching home, I went to Facebook and typed this in my status: "Instead of nailing the questions, I get a nil. Am I not hardworking enough? Perhaps I'm just a mere lad who expects highly for an unreachable platform. Wake up, SOH JENQLII!". Now, after recollecting my thoughts and analyzing them, I begin to understand one thing, studying smart and hard aren't enough. What we need besides those two aspects is LUCK - as what I always said but yet have forgotten due to the wavering mood - WISDOM and LUCK. I hope in my forthcoming exams, I'll be fortunate enough to nail all the questions given. Well, one might say I'm a very "kiasu" person, or perhaps too exam-oriented mind, but what is my might? I know having a first class degree will never guarantee my place in the society, yet I'm still chasing the dream for I wish to make myself proud as well as my family! I don't want them to be looked down; not even a slight of oppression from any party; neither relatives nor friends. Also, I hope to reduce my parents' burden especially concerning monetary matter as I understand their circumstance perfectly. I don't care how other people look at me, but as long as I stand on my feet and never frail, I will eventually accomplish my this very dream which is one of my desires too. Okay, I know I'm getting all emotional over here, and for this has proven me that I'm a mere human who has feelings and needs to speak his heart out.
Erm.. That's all for the emotional part. Well, I went to Midvalley around 2 p.m. today with Joey, Kennt, Wei Kiat, Jared and two other friends who I know not much about those two. We went there for shopping and bowling. It's my first time playing the so-called "nightclub-style" of bowling - illuminous bowling alley, pins and balls made everything so "nightclub" to me. Anyway, I didn't perform very well today; should I put all the blames to the bowling centre? Lolz.. I think I should. After bowling, we couldn't decide what we should have for dinner until circa 30mins later, we decided to go to 小飞象 in Bukit Serdang for dinner. We chatted and I wonder what time I reached home as I didn't look at the time. Perhaps 8.30 p.m. or 9 p.m.? Lolz.. Who cares? As long as I had a great time with this bunch of buddies over there, I care not! Okay, I wish to have an early sleep tonight. Hopefully, tomorrow will be a very good day for me. Good night, peeps! ^^~

Course Night - FYP - First Test
Hey, guys! I haven't been blogging since last Friday because I was and I am still busy for my FYP as well as my First Test. I'll have to sit for Mathematical Programming Test tomorrow and Mathematical Methods Test on next Wednesday.
Well, allow me to express myself on last Friday's Course Night. In my opinion, it didn't really suit the theme - Clubbin' Night. Besides, the programmes held that night were just okay to me; perhaps I had high hopes for them. Anyway, the emcees were humorous, the duet was great, the hula-hop dance was okay, the food was okay, the process of selection for Course King, Queen, Prince and Princess was kind of the same during my year, the musics were great though, but the juniors weren't 'sporting' enough to enjoy the Clubbin' Night; it was like the seniors were 'syok-ing sendiri'. Nevertheless, I know there's nothing perfect and there is always room for progression. So, I would like to give a thumb-up for the Second Year Juniors for their involvements as well as contributions. Honestly, they were way better than my batch of people. They just need the opportunity to shine!
FYP wise, I tried my very best to understand the codes and the Tcl language. I tried to modify the existing programme of one of my seniors - Moo. Eventually, I did what Dr. N wanted me to do at the night before our meeting. Last Monday, I showed him my modification proudly, and I could see he was very glad. I was in the seventh-heaven of delight^^.. He gave me some tasks to do for this week. I did 70% of them, but I'm stuck at the last part, that is to insert the RKN equations to the programmes by editing the existing RK Method equations.
Well, I cannot spend all my time merely on my FYP as I need to focus in my revision for my exams too. Hence, I decided not to look at my FYP until my exam's over despite having to meet my supervisor next Monday. I hope Dr. N will condone my reluctance in completing the task. Talking about examination, I've sat for Complex Analysis Test and I think I did okay despite the uncertainty in solving 2 of the questions asked. I might not get full marks, but I have done my best. Hopefully, I'll obtain flying colours results for my First Test as I've given and I'll give my very best in it!

Salt
Yesterday afternoon, Wei Kiat came to Old Flat, and I hope I didn't bore him much. Lolz.. In our conversation, we decided to go for a movie - Salt - that night and so, we went to Jusco Balakong to watch. Salt is a great movie starred by Angelina Jolie and the others. It's about a spy raised in Russia and the attempt to assassinate the Presidents of Russia and U.S.A.. In my opinion, this action-packed movie is on a par with the movie - Inception, although it doesn't require as much thinking as the latter. Wei Kiat accidentally left the bread he bought in the cinema, and thus we went to 7Eleven to buy another one. Lolz.. Sorry for not helping you to remember about the existence of the bread. ><.. Anyway, it was indeed a great outing! :)

hectic weekdays
This Monday, I had a meeting with Dr. N about my FYP, and he gave me new tasks, which were to understand the Tcl Programming Language, to familiarize with the SpecTcl software, as well as to modify the RK-solving calculator into RKN-solving type. I was thunderstruck as I didn't have any knowledge about the Tcl and SpecTcl! I was just given a week to settle all these! Since I hadn't fully recovered from my illness and I had a hectic Monday to Wednesday, I didn't actually have the time to have a look at my FYP. I had to study for two quizzes, and my Test 1 is just around the corner!
I am weak in Programming and yet I chose Dr. N as my supervisor. I couldn't put a blame on anyone about this, could I? *sigh* Well, I did badly in those two quizzes. I practically didn't have thought Dr. Zainidin would ask those questions. *sigh* Yesterday night, MJ's house had a housewarming steamboat party, but I didn't attend since I wasn't feeling well. *sigh*
Anyway, yesterday, TKS, HMS, TSY, PSY and I went to The Mines to play bowling. It was enjoyable as it has been a while since I last played bowling. Also, this coming Friday, that would be tomorrow, there will be a Course Night handled by our Math & Stat 2nd year juniors for welcoming our 1st year juniors. I'm looking forward to this event, and I hope I will enjoy the night as the theme of the event is "Clubbin' Night".
Well, for now, I'll just concentrate in my FYP's tasks and study for my forthcoming exams. *ush ush!!* I can do it! がんばって！

PKU
This morning I woke up, I found my condition was getting worse. My whole body was 'heaty' and my flu was deteriorating. My eyes were fiery hot. Thus, Peter fetched me to Pusat Kesihatan UPM (PKU) and waited there for 1 hour plus. Thanks oo.. >.<.. We then went to Bao Long and bought our lunch. I had vermicelli soup. Then, I took my medicine and went to sleep. I felt a lot better after I woke up! Thanks, God! 谢天谢地~ The antibiotic is working out! Now I'm waiting for my ABC porridge prepared by Mei Shing, assisted by rice cooker.. LOLZ...

Sick!
Two days ago, I was feeling a little not well, but I kept straining myself to complete my part of the Public Speaking assignment as well as my FYP maple programming. Consequently, I was having my hard time yesterday especially at night. Having a little feverish and influenza despite consuming medicines, I couldn't have a good sleep. I was partially awakened for the whole night! Anyway, today I was feeling much better. I'm still feeling tired though. Hopefully I could fully recover by nightfall. *Finger-crossed!!!!* *Pray~~*

Vampires' Parade
Wow... It seems I haven't been here for a while now. This is because the same routines took place for these few days; thus no interesting story to be posted here. Yesterday night I was trying to sleep but I couldn't. So, I came up with an idea by creating a poem, typing using my cellphone while I was on bed. While I was typing, thinking and extracting every single ounce of memory from my brain, I fell into a deep slumber. I found out I was lying on my cellphone around 6 o'clock this morning. Lolz.. Well, this morning I had an hour of free time before MTH3302 lecture started, so I continued to complete my half-done masterpiece. Anyway, I've just completed it, and here's the poem:
~Vampires' Parade~
Joining the parade;
Vampires roam freely.
Preying on the blood;
The vampires thirst hungrily.
The Chosen One is selected;
To be baptized by vampires' fangs.
Sinking into the arteries and veins;
The vampires enjoyed.
Thus the newborn vampires arise;
Joining the parade.
Literally, it is about the process of life one has to undergo especially in this current society, where one is influenced and eventually joined the notion of others in order to be acknowledged by them.
Well, it has been a while since I last produced any masterpiece. Personally, I think it's still half-way done, but I'm just too lazy to perfect it. So, I'll leave it like this, and I hope it is still okay. Cheers! :)
