Amount of Red Bull you can stomach
5 more days to exams...
Can't believe there's only 5 more days before my first paper >.<, gotta stop watching K-On and study now. =) For the first time in my life, I actually experience ice falling during the rain, also known as a hail storm(?), reminds me of the time when my parents reminiscent about their childhood with all the ice falling on the atap roof and what not lulz.
Anyway, yours truly has found an interesting article on the net which I'm sure some of us can relate to. :p Although slowpoke is slow, but it's better late than never, right? =)
"We are the Facebook generation. With this glorious title comes many responsibilities (well, sort of): we must immediately inform our friends of any and all actions we take and decisions we make during our day. This includes what TV show we’re watching, what we are eating, the status of our relationships and, subsequently, our break-ups.
Now that Facebook is in the picture, there is a whole new slew of issues we must face when dealing with a heartbreaking, make-you-wanna-sit-in-your-room-alone-crying-to-sappy-music breakups.
Before Facebook (BF): You break it off with your lover and tell everyone that you ended it, so you need your besties and Ben & Jerry’s, like, stat.
After Facebook (AF): You break it off with your lover and they change their relationship status first, making it look like it was their decision. Which it was not. Ok, maybe it was, but did they have to change that so quickly? Now you’re getting 45 FB messages and wall posts asking if you are OK.
BF: You rip up all your pictures, cutting out your ex’s face and even burning the particularly painful ones. Ah, satisfaction.
AF: You untag the 1,938 pictures of you guys as a couple. It takes four hours and is in no way satisfying because there is a sad lack of sharp objects and fire. And the pictures are still fully intact.
BF: You carefully orchestrate a plan to “accidentally” be at the same social function as your ex, looking fabulous and with what looks like the next Calvin Klein underwear model.
AF: You post pictures from a bender with your besties, carefully editing out the embarrassing bits (oh, thousands) and making sure to post an appropriate, make-him-jealous Facebook status (”Sooo tired but had the best time EVER last night!! <3 id="more-30153" style="outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; ">
BF: You still have his daily schedule memorized, so you “check up” on him every now and then. (Wait, why is he lingering in Starbucks so long? When did Starbucks start hiring models as baristas??)
AF: You and your Blackberry settle down for a productive day of Facebook stalking. Looks like your ex hasn’t posted any photos since your break-up. Is that because he hasn’t done anything worthy of photos, or is that because he’s been too busy with someone else to get any photos taken??
BF: You avoid any sort of knowledge that he has moved on before you.
AF: Your Newsfeed tells you that some new chick has posted pictures of him. You spend the next 3 hours checking this girl out, seeing who she knows, Googling her, and trying to figure out if they are just friends or if it’s something more.
BF: You totally cut your ex out of your life: ignoring his phone calls, staying away from his favorite places, etc. Cold turkey on the communication.
AF: You un-friend your ex on Facebook so he can’t see your frequent status updates that include comments on your daily testing of waterproof mascara and the merits of the different flavors of Ben & Jerry’s (seriously, they are the bearers of peace and serenity). And then you regret un-friending him because you can no longer see what he’s doing. But you can’t re-friend him; that would just be pathetic. What should you do? Oh why did you act so abruptly? Now you are going to have to stalk your friends who are still friends with him so you can use their FB to look at him.
Ugh. As if breaking up weren’t hard enough already…"
Peace out.
Exams! and some soldering
So yea, it's week 13 now, which means most classes have been canceled and it'll be study break next week. Can't believe it already has been 1 semester. My exams start on 15th and end on the 24th.
Anyway, last week in the last electrical lab for the semester, we did some soldering work. As some of you might know, my soldering skills aren't exactly the best and I had to pay an electrician 8 bucks to solder my circuit board for me when I was in Year 8. However, this time it came out rather satisfactorily, thanks to some neat soldering skills by yours truly.
It's this neat little gadget that can tell the surrounding temperature with the push of a button. The temperatures come in step sizes of 4C so it isn't too useful to tell the real temperature.
Rather nifty eh? With all the pretty lights, haha.
Ok, perhaps my soldering wasn't THAT good, but at least I've improved. :P

What a girl wants?!?
A girl wants a man. A wealthy man, a successful men, a famous man, an interesting man, a macho, a talented man, a loving man, a man she loves, a father for her children, a friend, a sex-machine - details may differ, but the main point stays the same. She wants a man. Some females want just money or a career, but if she denies her willingness to meet a real man - she lies. Moreover, girl’s demands to what she calls a good man vary as she gets older.
A girl of 22 wants a prince on a white horse. A girl may claim she’s realistic and doesn’t look on the world through the pink glasses, but she’ll never confess dreaming of an ideal man. He’s got to be handsome, charming, popular. He’s got to be rich - probably not so rich, but always in funds. Of course, he’s got to be generous to spend money on her. He’s got to be smart, brilliantly smart- to some girls it’s even more important than being very handsome, but of course his mind is never more important than his purse. He’s got to have a great sense of humor, to be athletic, stylish, romantic and a good listener, tender lover and… well, the list of his qualities can be prolonged on and on. A girl wants a man to adore her and to make her the goddess with flowers, gifts and promises of eternal love laid at her feet.
A girl of 32 wants just a good man. She has finally taken off those pink glasses and got rid of romantic fantasies. So her good man mustn’t be a hero - he is good-looking, has good manners, a well-paid job, a good car, a good house, and a good sum of money on a credit card. Also he carries bags from supermarket, likes her home-cooked dinners, laughs at her jokes, remembers the most important dates - like her mom’s birthday, and able to express tenderness not less than one time per week. Such a nice domestic kind of a good man.
A girl of 42 wants just a man. That ordinary kind of man is not a movie star, he even has a belly instead of muscles- good if the shirt covers it all; sometimes a head lacking hair, but still isn’t too disgusting. He shaves by the weekends, is still “athletic” enough to do some housework, remembers where to laugh in the jokes, nods to show he’s listening, takes her out once a month, drives her to the supermarket and back, doesn’t set the car in motion until all women’s parts of body are in, and puts the water-closet pan’s seat down.
A girl of 52 wants… well she just lives with that man. It’s really nice if he remembers her name, shaves during weekends, sometimes gets a haircut, changes underwear and socks regularly, borrows money not too often, tries to behave himself in public. It’s great if he also finds the strength to leave the coach for some weekends, notices delicious dinner while watching TV, doesn’t always fall asleep while listening to a person. By this age a woman doesn’t expect much, in fact she asks for the very minimum.
A girl of 62 wants a man who won’t disturb her too often. She’s a lucky one, if he’s not too scary to make his own grandchildren cry, if he still remembers where the bathroom is, where his teeth are, what month it is, who this woman is, what he is laughing at, and etc. A woman will appreciate his ability to get up, dress properly without much help from her side. The top of all dreams is if it doesn’t cost a lot to keep that man, and if there are some places in the house, where his snore doesn’t reach.
A girl of 72… well, some “girls” do live that long, but what about men? Are you sure he’s still breathing? And he doesn’t leave puddles in the water-closet? Oh, that’s a real treasure for a tired girl of 72.

A girl wants a man to adore her and to make her the goddess with flowers, gifts and promises of eternal love laid at her feet.
A girl of 32 wants just a good man. She has finally taken off those pink glasses and got rid of romantic fantasies. So her good man mustn’t be a hero - he is good-looking, has good manners, a well-paid job, a good car, a good house, and a good sum of money on a credit card. Also he carries bags from supermarket, likes her home-cooked dinners, laughs at her jokes, remembers the most important dates - like her mom’s birthday, and able to express tenderness not less than one time per week. Such a nice domestic kind of a good man.
A girl of 42 wants just a man. That ordinary kind of man is not a movie star, he even has a belly instead of muscles- good if the shirt covers it all; sometimes a head lacking hair, but still isn’t too disgusting. He shaves by the weekends, is still “athletic” enough to do some housework, remembers where to laugh in the jokes, nods to show he’s listening, takes her out once a month, drives her to the supermarket and back, doesn’t set the car in motion until all women’s parts of body are in, and puts the water-closet pan’s seat down.
A girl of 52 wants… well she just lives with that man. It’s really nice if he remembers her name, shaves during weekends, sometimes gets a haircut, changes underwear and socks regularly, borrows money not too often, tries to behave himself in public. It’s great if he also finds the strength to leave the coach for some weekends, notices delicious dinner while watching TV, doesn’t always fall asleep while listening to a person. By this age a woman doesn’t expect much, in fact she asks for the very minimum.
A girl of 62 wants a man who won’t disturb her too often. She’s a lucky one, if he’s not too scary to make his own grandchildren cry, if he still remembers where the bathroom is, where his teeth are, what month it is, who this woman is, what he is laughing at, and etc. A woman will appreciate his ability to get up, dress properly without much help from her side. The top of all dreams is if it doesn’t cost a lot to keep that man, and if there are some places in the house, where his snore doesn’t reach.
A girl of 72… well, some “girls” do live that long, but what about men? Are you sure he’s still breathing? And he doesn’t leave puddles in the water-closet? Oh, that’s a real treasure for a tired girl of 72.
Somewhat long post, by my standards at least :P
Part 1 : Disted SAM Gathering - Saturday, 9th of May
This outing had been in planning for weeks before Li Wen finally finalised it a week before the actual date. On the day itself, I got up early and met up with Boon Kent for breakfast at McD. McD here is sorta interesting as there were eggs and bacon in the burgers, something we don't get back home. ;)
Lunch at some Italian restaurant, I've forgotten the name <.< 
Taking pics at Lygon Street =)
Group picture!!!
There are more pics, but it really is a pain to upload them here, shitty Blogger ftw! After lunch, we just walked around the City looking at various stuff. Marian and Li Wen left at 5 and us guys went to watch X-Men Origins : Wolverine which was pretty good. I slept pretty early that night, it was a long day afterall. xD
Part 2 : Lisa's Farewell - Friday, 15th of May
Lisa had just left for the States early this morning, it felt like only yesterday that I met both Lisa and Bryan at a Dynamics lecture which I was crashing. Lisa's announcement of her departure was so abrupt it actually took us awhile to comprehand it. Apparently it was some family problems which triggered her hasty departure, Bryan, in particular has been pretty moody these few days. To cut a long story short, here are some pics.
The frame with everyone's signatures on it, Bryan being the perfectionist that he is, rewrote the date a few times. <.<

After breakfast, we took the 900 to Hunting Dale and then the train to the City. On the way, we passed by the Caulfield Monash campus which reminded me of the four papers that I have there. This makes one wonder why the exams have to be at a different venue from the place one is currently studying at. <.< style="text-align: center;">
Marian's cake!
