I got only 2 papers this semester despite taking 4 modules (20 MCs). Out of these 2 papers, 1 of them is open book and partially it is based on common sense (CS3253) and hence I did not spend much time studying it.
I spent exactly 1 week studying CS2105 because the fucking workload is so heavy, fuck loads of stuffs to memorize, closed book exams and not even a single fucking help sheet is allowed (last semester, help sheet is allowed). CS2105 is a computer network module and of course it covers the 5 layers of network. I am fine with that, but I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHY THE FUCK DO WE NEED TO KNOW signal calculations/details, WE ARE COMPUTER PROGRAMMERS AND NOT ENGINEERS. Please wake up your idea.
I have ordered my copy of WordPress for Dummies over at Amazon (including shipping) instead of getting it at my local bookstores because it is cheaper!
Lidija from BlogWell, interviewed Lisa Sabin-Wilson, author of WordPress for Dummies. Lisa mentioned my name in the interview and I feel very honored. Thank you Lisa if you are reading this.

CS3214
Phew, just submitted my CS3214 on Friday at 3pm after camping 2 days in school rushing for it due to some hiccups the last week. I think the hopes for at least an A- is dashed for it, hopefully I still can get B+ for it. I made the right choice by doing CS3214 this semester as my teammates are all damn good in their own areas, web, documentation and business logic, kudos to you guys and girls. I will be going back to school tomorrow for rehearsal for my presentation will be on Wednesday.
NUS Facebook Course (CS3216)
I posted an entry entitled, NUS Offering Facebook Programming and someone posted that article on tomorrow.sg and after that I got an interview from The New Paper (TNP). And apparently this causes quite an amount of attention to be given to my school as The Sunday Times, TNP and Channel 8 & U has asked for a story on the new Facebook course. They are going to hold a press briefing next Wednesday and so happen on that day is my CS3214 presentation, if the postpone it to other days, I will be going down to help.
The School of Computing will be offering a new 4-MC Facebook Programming module on next Semester (AY2007/2008, Semester 2) – CS3216 : Software Development on Evolving Platforms. This is your chance to be a part of this new global Internet phenomenon, currently valued at some US$15 billion.
SERIOUSLY, WTF IS WRONG WITH SINGAPORE, helping to pay fine for someone that has committed a crime and he is not even a Singaporean nor a PR. I seriously don’t give a flying fuck if he is from RJC or scored 2394863280948034 As for his exams, he committed a crime and he should be responsible for his action.
CHINESE undergraduate Zhao Ke, fined $15,000 for hacking into his former school’s computer network, has received “over ten” offers to help pay his fine.
Today, 24th October 2007 (1024) marks the 3rd year we have been together. We celebrated earlier this time instead of the actual date due to my school commitment (having night class later).
We had a buffer dinner at Carnivore @ CHIJMES last Friday. Wanted to have it at VivoCity instead, but it is fully booked as I booked it in the morning on the same day. And the guy recommend me to book before Tuesday if I want to have dinner on a weekends at Carnivore @ VivoCity. Their business is damn good and the prices are not that cheap either. This shows that Singaporeans are not that poor.
