My work

Been working for 3 months. so, an update on what i've accomplished during the 3 months, to see if I should continue working~~ no point working if you gain nothing besides money :)

Basically, I will have to design or innovate circuits to aid students, educators, hobbyist in their projects. So far, I have completed 3 projects. A training board for a local institute, a bluetooth development board and a voltage regulator. The first two projects were assigned to me while the last was completed because i'm sick of soldering power supply everytime i need it.

i ain't sure if i'm allowed to display the pics, but then, must show off my regulator :)

the prototype:



the manufactured board:



Basically, i havent solder the components up because no stock~~ can Yee Hwee or Hsien Yun help me get some from the scraps?? ^^

Raya trip to Hat Yai - Alone~~

From the title, it's kinda obvious that I went to Hat Yai, Thailand, alone last weekend. It has been a great experience to wander alone, but then again, it's such a pity that I do not have any camera~~!! Can't take any pic.. Can't share the views to everyone. But nvm, i'll be there again, soon. This time around, I'll get myself a camera, as suggested by Tek and Chye Hsiang, a compact one will do.. wait till richer then only get a DSLR. Nevertheless, to those who do not get tired reading things i write, there are few things i would like to share, in case you wanna go HatYai, alone :P

Hotel I stayed: Golden Crown. RM2 for tutu ride to get there from the bus stop.

Food: Be prepared, most of the food are hot and spicy, ala Tom Yam~

Places to Visit: I spent most of my time walking around town, which is quite small. The night life is kinda happening, somewhere between Bali and JB town. Get cheap stuff at the market (remember to bargain at least 50%). Temple on top of the mountain (just tell the tutu driver, he'll noe how to get you there).

Things to bring: Cash/Credit card, but i think Cash will be more practical coz no CC machine at market. Change your cash there, better rate (at least in September 2009) Sunblock.. lotsa sunblock. Sunglasses, Hat. It's freaking HOT~~!!

Others: If you are more adventurous, done with HatYai, I would suggest you take a long ride to Songkhla. Nice beach and nice view. Unpolluted and nice people.

Conclusion: I guess i'm in love with Hat Yai, and also the people there. Exactly what I felt when i went Bali... Encourage you guys and gals to make a trip there... I'm sure can ask Mei Shan for more details coz she frequent there :)

Overflowing Ineffable Emotions

Ain't sure what happen lately, but what i'm sure of is, I have an overwhelming feeling. This feeling engulf me, suffocates me. I feel enclosed, trapped, dominated, cramped... Like, I have no control over myself, my thinking, my actions, my words, my expression...

...I'm breaking apart...
...I'm no longer me...
...I'm LoSt...

Self-Control

When will one loses her self-control?

When she has no ethics?
When she is indecisive?
When she is in love?

If loving someone makes you feel miserable, then he's not worth loving.

Pixar latest creation: UP



When i first saw this trailer, I have a hunch that this movie gonna make me cry... And, true indeed.. It made me cry >.<

Up is another production from Pixar, its story evolves around a cranky old man who can't move on with his life. In short, he can't get over the grief he's having. His grief over his wife has gave him the courage to fulfil his promises to her. That is to move their house to Paradise Falls in South America. It sounds impossible, esp when he's 78 now. But he managed to do it, and at the same time, he moved on with his life, getting over with the grieving process.

This plot reminds me so much of my life. My grief over the death of my grandmother. Sometimes I wonder, there are so many things in life which i have to do, because i promised my grandmother i would do it. Those things seem to be impossible, I ain't sure if i can manage it. But then, after watching this movie, there's one thing i'm sure of, I'm still not over with the grieving process. I still can't make myself move on with my life. I need to fulfil my promises to her before i move on with my life. Haih~~ it's gonna be a long long journey~~

Neway, this movie, 'UP' is indeed good. Both thumbs up for it.. Must Watch Movie~~
