FREEDOM!!!

At long last, all my CA exams all OVER!! YAHOO!!! After bursting my brains on that exams, finally I can let it pass me.. I've done what I could, now it's all in the hands of the Lord (and lecturers!)

So today and probably tomorrow it will just be tidur, main, lepak, makan and er... tidur! XD Also catching up with a lot of stuff that I've missed out for the past few weeks.. Like watching tons and tons of movies!! =p

As for the results.. *silence* Not going to mention a word.. Not yet.. Hehe.. Go and guess people.. Adios!!

Is Hell Exothermic or Endothermic?

Now this is something my friend posted on FB.. Very very interesting.. And funny.. Before u read the following article, just ponder on the question for a while and try to come out with your own reason..

Dr. Schambaugh, of the University of Oklahoma School of Chemical Engineering, Final Exam question for May of 1997. Dr. Schambaugh is known for asking questions such as, "why do airplanes fly?" on his final exams. His one and only final exam question in May 1997 for his Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer II class was: "Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with proof."

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:

"First, We postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave.

Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, then you will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant. Two options exist:

  1. If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
  2. If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the quote given to me by Theresa Manyan during Freshman year, "that it will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I still have NOT succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then Option 2 cannot be true...Thus, hell is exothermic."

The student, Tim Graham, got the only A.

1 week already??!!

Yeah.. I was looking at the calendar today and I was like "OMG!! My holidays are ending!! T.T"

Time pass really really fast.. I don't think I did much during this holidays except eat, sleep and play my laptop.. Tried to finish my assignments but they are still there, waiting to be touched.. LOL!! And my studies? Don't talk about them, haven't even really began to revise yet.. And I got 3 exams after my holidays.. Great..

Nothing much to update thou.. Other than manage to eat home cooked food (finally), sleeping till lunch time and er... Being very unproductive.. LOL!! Visited 2 friends over the Deepavali, thank you guys for inviting me over.. And also just going out with parents..

To all my friends who'll be having their exams soon, local unis especially, I wish u all the best.. Gambateh!! And to the others who are having holidays, enjoy it to the max (providing u don't have exams after ur holidays.. =p)

10 days holiday!

At last my one week (or 10 days) holiday has finally started!!

Yesterday received information in the afternoon that our exam for today was canceled (more like postponed). I was like "Again??!!" So was contemplating whether to stick with my current schedule which was to go back tonight or change the ticket.. In the end, I paid 4 bucks for yesterday's night ticket and now I'm back home!! =)

10 days holiday sounds like fun eh? NOT!! I got 2 assignments and now thanks to that postponement, 4 exams when I get back to uni.. Have to study and all.. Haiz.. So much for my holidays.. However, as for now, ENJOY FIRST!! XD

And some might ask, how was the exam? 3 words: Not Enough TIME!! So many questions, so little time.. Gosh.. OK, maybe it's been a while (like nearly a year) I've never sat for an exam.. So it'll take time to adjust.. However, this is an eye opener for me to what is to come next.. After all, 1st CA is supposedly 'the easiest'.

Btw, anyone going for the La Sallian dinner? If anyone is going do let me know.. I so wanna go!! Take care people!!

Really Zha Dou!!

Question of the day:
How can your mood for your exam be spoiled?

Answer:
Postponement of the exam!

That's right people. For the first time in my studying life, an exam is postponed when it was suppose to begin. It was like WTF!! You studied till your butt drop (OK, being dramatic here) and then BOOM!! That happens.. Haiz.. Seriously WTF la.. Really spoiled my mood for studying..

Then there was the idea of having the exam at 3pm or after Deepavali.. Smartly most of my batch mates said after Deepavali.. I guess they fail to see that after Deepavali, we will be super super super busy..

Oh well, gotta move forward I guess.. There'll be no holidays for me.. I mean figuratively speaking.. Since I got 3 assignments and 3 test to study for during the holidays.. Shit.. Maybe can squeeze in a yam cha or two but depends on how many of u guys will be back during Deepavali..

Time to study again.. Later people..

Brief update..

Well, as u all can see, my blog has been like dead for the past week or so.. Simple, there's nothing much to update.. My life is being routine:

Wake up
Breakfast
Class
Lunch
Class/Exercise
Dinner
Study
Supper
Tidur

Kinda sad rite? Gone are the good old days where I can go out to cinemas, mamak stalls, can just play with my friends and 38 around.. I really miss my school days.. And I really miss home.. =( Especially good old home cook food!! AIMST food is getting routine also ---> same taste, same style..

Now with my 1st CA coming up, it's really just hitting the books (or papers) every night till dunno what time.. It's so scary.. Honestly I never worked this hard in my study life, as in every night just sitting and reading.. Don't worry, I ain't going bonkers, I still know how to enjoy every little bit of life I can get right now.. =)

After CA is my 1 week holiday!! Whee!!! So happy.. Get to go back home for a week, finally.. Assignments will pile up thou.. Haiz..

Btw, pictures on the Kabadi competition will be posted up after my CA is done.. Cause:
1) I do not have time
2) The internet in my room is dead, so I'm using a highly unstable WiFi

To those who are having exams soon, especially local uni friends, good luck and do your best!! Guess the same can be said for me.. LOL!! Oyasumi nasai!
