life's pretty boring... n... i'm jus approaching the 3rd day after my exams? kinda of contradicting right... when i yearn for a relax life, life jus gets tougher... when i'm slacking, life jus gets meaningless n bored... but i prefer the latter... n my joker sis still ask me to go take a look at webcasts... diao...

well... nothing much for the past 2 days... in fact... i started to get bored on sat morning... when i woke up n had nothing to do... whahaha... n i jus walked ard the house n disturbing everyone... haha... at least i done something todae... by doing housework... not bad right... an ideal husband in the making... so grab me fast!

planned out some stuff to do for the next few days....

- need to go gym to regain my killer body.
- runs to cut my tummy fats.
- swimming and tanning... i wan to be a blanga. as a matter of fact, i didnt swim for this whole sem! damn...

last but not least, the stupid shop near my house is so unethical! ma de... went to bought snacks n while papa and i was munching twisties, i discovered it is tasteless and tasted weird... n when i take a look at the expiry date.... it is long expired... make my blood boil... so, no choice but to head back to the shop again!

best part is, the shop owner jus smiled at me. freaking idiot. as i choose another packet of twisties, i discovered that most of the twisties at the front row had expired. yet he is still selling them. wat a loser.

this is my 500th post!! haha...

driving n speeding at 120km/hr is fun... in the sense... the excitement... even though my legs a bit softy.... my virgin driving at such a high speed... haha

so long nv played pool... been containing my urge all this while... haha... n i'm proud to sae... i played well todae... haha...

last but not least, exams are over!! 3 months break is here... WOooooooooooh.... haha

i'm moments away from my veri last paper in this sem! n then, i bid farewell to yr 1 n hello to yr 2 in 4 months time? time flies... i'm glad that this exam saga is ending...

marketing paper todae is ok... had a peace of mind... the best part is... the questions are all related to the proj stuff... n... guessed the free riders don no anything? cos they been doing nothing all along... so... i'm so happy for the 1st time... cos for the past few months, all these shit tat i been picking up... turned out to be a blessing... haha...

i thought i am the unlucky one... but... todae... this title belong to denise... haha... her slipper broke while walking in to sch... n worse still... its raining... n she was grumbling... as usual... haha... luckily still got laurence... paper starting at 9 n 8.30 still at home... cool... haha... n after the paper, she was super joker... sitting at the canteen on the phone with shawn with the don no wat posture... like a typical bookie at the coffee house... haha...

i been waiting for the long-awaited fun to begin... i been storing my power for don no how long le... hahaha... tmr will be a great day!

read the post i posted yesterdae? well... everything can be thrown away... cos todae's paper... nothing came out from wat i learnt...

todae's paper was real easy... sianz... thought it will be a killer n then i got chance to score well... in the end... sianz half... my A nw depends on the stupid bell shape curve le... sigh...

shucks... currently studying for the most difficult paper i took this sem... env science for building... paper is tmr... i merely studied 3/4 of it... die... but its challenging though... as i said, this is a difficult module... which means, alot of people wont score well... so, this is a chance for me to get a gd grade... provided i understand n can recalled wat Mr Tamil taught.

recap of wat i learnt;

acoustics.

reference for SPL= 2 x 10^-5 DB

NC curve. measure of backgrd noise. from there, we will knw wats the amt of noise to be reduced in DB. so, move onto STC curve. to see which curve is able to reduce the noise at various freq.

sabine formula = 0.161V/A. V = volume of room. A = surface area of room with the various absorption rate. this will giv the reberveration time.

Noise reduction = source room - receiving room (DB)

Noise reduction coeff = measurement at 250,500, 1000, 2000htz onli

noise reduction (comparing of 2 rooms) = 10LOG (condition 2 / condition 1)

transmission loss = L (source) - L (receive) + 10LOG S/A. where S = area of the partition n A is the absorption rate of the receiving room

Impact Insulation Curve = mearsurement of the insulation of the ceilings and floor. if the table given indicate value for STC but not IIC, this means that the material is for partition onli.

absorption coeff = sound absorbed / sound of incident wave
transmission coeff = sound transmitted / sound of incident wave.

total building performance: 7 mandates, acoustics, thermal, visual, spartial performance, building integrity, IAQ, energy.

advantages :
guide designer in making changes and review
provide feedback for improved performance
focus on performance which adhere to the agreed set of mandates
focus on needs and perfomance of building during management stage
give good and consistent decisions which led to a gd design
provide consistency and balance design in meeting a spectrum of needs

IAQ. indoor air quality. 3 stages

design, construction and commissioning of building and operation and maintenance of building

design.

design of building envelope

most important factor that led to IAQ. building cooling load will determine the selection of ventiliation and air conditioning system. wrong analysis of building cooling load will led to wrong selection n cause IAQ problems.

design of occupied place
designer had to take into consideration of the emittion pollutants which led to IAQ problems. those pollutants that cause severe effects of human health are to be replaced or removed. so better IAQ.

location of fresh air intake louvres, cooling tower and building exhaustion duct. they must be strategic place. for ex, cooling tower and the exhaustion duct cannot be placed together as the entraining air will cause microbial to enter the system and cause IAQ probs.

design of ventiliation and air conditioning system
the selection of type of system is veri impt. for ex, selection of VAV system, will result in IAQ prob as even though there is energy efficiency, the reduction of fresh air during min load of the building will cause discomfort. therefore, IAQ aduit will come in.

construction and commission of building
the most difficult phrase as it must conform to the required design n also to the various rules and regulation. commissioning of building is also another challenge as the ventiliation and air conditioning system must have a balanced design where the designed places should have the allocated amt of fresh air. failure to do so, will cause IAQ prob

operation n maintenace of building
the functional usage of occupied places should be according to wat is designed in the design stage. changes in the layout of the occupied place will cause IAQ prob. such as change of materials tat produced harmful emittion of gases. maintenace of cooling tower n AHU must be done to prevent microbial as well. filters in the air distribution systems must be change, if not dust will accumulate n led to IAQ prob. air distribution ducts should be cleaned regularly as well.

thermal.

heat transfer in conduction, convention n radiation.

cross section area, temp diff, length n thickness will affect the rate of conduction.
cross section area, temp diff, heat transfer coeff and viscosity n velocity of fluid will affect the rate of convention.

time lag and decrement factor is affected by diffusivity and thickness.
diffusivity = conductivity / density x specific heat.

solar air temp = shaded temperature + absorptive x incidence (diffuse + directed heat) / combined (rad + convention)

mean radiant temp = (temp x area) / area

factors that affect the thermal (passive control) of building

mass. large mass cause low thermal capacity and slow response
glass. absorb + transmit + reflect = 1
insulation
ventiliation. size of opening, control of opening and place of opening for cross ventiliation.
orientation. location of building
shading device. tat shield the sun into the building. external shading device is preferred n better than internal shading device.

psychometrics chart consist of wet, dry bulb thermometer, specific volume, ethaphyl, moisture content, dew point temp, RH

methods to do ensure temp is at the thermal comfort zone.
-evaporative cooling
-cooling
-cooling and dehumidification
-heating n humidification.

summary of wat i memorized and studied so far.

having exams is bad enough... 1st paper on a sat with the paper like shit? unexplainable feeling... some of the qns u see le... hoho... u get severe headache... the room starts to spin... but anyway, its over... 1 down n 3 left!!!!!! hope i can get at least a B+

intend to take a break... n then... resume training for tues battle... wooh... require major effort... but... with my determination, i will see thru it! ROAR

got the link from yue's blog... n there are so mani cool stuff... haha

Your Kissing Technique Is: Perfect

Your kissing technique is amazing - and you know it. You have the confidence to make the first move. And you always seem to know what kissing style is going to work best. Sometimes you're passionate, sometimes you're a tease. And you're always amazing!

You Are 72% Burned Out

You are very burned out. You need a huge break from your responsibilities, starting as soon as possible. And you need this time to reevaluate what you really want out of your life. Because you're working hard and going no where... and that would burn anyone out!

You Are 77% Thankful

You are a very thankful person - for both the big and little things in life. Your optimism is powerful. Getting through hard times is fairly easy for you.

You Are 73% Perfectionist

You are a true perfectionist. You are both demanding of yourself and others. While it's great to have goals and standards, they don't need to be sky high!

the date to my 1st paper is drwing near... so far... i so called completed revision of 2 modules onli... far behind schedule n my own expectations.

been feeling tired, senseless, no mood to study... perhaps its the proj tat is making me feel this way. for the past month, i been working hard almost everydae for marketing plan. nw its over, n i had to drag my feet up, pull my loosen socks n fight hard for the final papers. i wish for a break. a gd time to relax n then get myself back in a gd shape to fight the last battle. but time doesnt permit me to do so. n often, we jus dont get wat we wish for, right?

time to fulfill the expectations.

study week not even begin yet... but... hoildays are already planning in progress? nw tis saying is true... when it comes to fun, everyone will be alive n chipping ard... when it comes to study.. sian ah!





nevertheless, i already had offers... a trip to thailand, taiwan, malaysia, hk? wooh... not to mention a trip with my cousins maybe... wow... i'm in demand!

remember the chocolate that i blogged abt? well... here it is... it had been with me for a good long 15 months. n it had expired for 6 months. in perfect n tip top condition n untouched. but sad to say... gd things had to come to an end. i jus cant leave it in the refrigerator for the rest of my life? anyway, jus got a new refrigerator last week. more room for ice-cream.

read n saw the major local news a few days back n i had a couple of mixed feelings.

last mondae, a guy was brought dwn by a bloody cab driver deliberately... is this deemed as an attempted murder case? but on the hindsight, if i'm not wrong, he will be charged for causing deliberate serious harm or something... which means, he may just be jailed? or worse still, jus a hefty fine + banned from driving for life or watever. a minimal punishment, just like giving strokes of cane to a sch kid. senseless.

this proves a loophole into the legal system. if u kill a person or be the mastermind of the plot, u will be hanged. as simple as that. but, if u get another person, with a clean driving record to run tat person down, story will be different? same result but different outcome. the former is death penalty while the latter is jus jail terms, fine, banned from driving? something to ponder abt. but, readers, pls don go ard killing people... haha

been a while since i got home late... but anyway... if i dont go out, i will be studying or working on proj nw... so... no difference...

celebrated denise's 21st bdae... i was thinking... when is my 21st bdae? seems to be long time ago... getting old? but young at heart... it was a pleasant surprise for her... haha... nice...

slack n hang ard with frens... such a long time since i saw alex, eddy, candy... haha... n they were discussing the holilday trip after the final exams... cant wait to go for a trip with them... haha... should be fun cos its a big grp... haha... shawn, denise, me, jeff, wensheng, alan, eddy, candy, alvin, sam, yifang, alex and gf + a new fren call xiang... haha... hes a joker... his stories are long... but interesting... haha...

the break from work is jus refreshing... kept my mind off work n everything... gonna bathe n study!

something is wrong with msn... cant seemed to login...

i realized;

1. i had not blogged for days.
2. i had not a decent chat with anyone for days.
3. exams are next week but i haven start revision.
4. i been slping at 5am each day. todae is no exception.
5. i am worn out.

nothing to blog abt. my life is currently envolved ard work. which makes me, a nus slave, pathetic robot.

i wondered wats up with me... did a stupid thing todae... bumped into cenying at the canteen todae... after chatting with her, my frens who were with me went missing... after much searching, found them n they found a seat as well... maybe i was too excited? while approaching the seat, i bumped into the metal chair, which in turn bang into the table. best thing of all, the gals tat were beside the empty table witnessed the whole incident n they were laughing like crazy. one of them even offered a helping hand to take the chair off me... shucks. i think i made their day...

tutorial todae... forget it. it jus made me pissed again.

i wished i had more time.

low, low.... LOW morale... this type of feeling is back again... the feeling where i feel veri empty, cant seemed to fig out nor understand wat the shit is happening...

IT for proj: screwed up at lab tests. My A is gone. still got hope but its minimal. gotta work super hard

env science for building: i dont understand everything. with a useless tutor who cant get anything right. think i need to use mastercard: price of a hammer: $8, tuition fee: 6K, salary of a AP: 10k? using the hammer to hammer AP = priceless.

econs: sometimes i understand. sometimes not.

marketing: another A that i aimed is shot down by an idiotic retard, made possible with clueless grp members.

this sem sucks. cant seemed to fulfill my potential even when i took 4 modules?

i need time. next week right after submission of marketing, straight came econs main exam.

i need silence so i can do my work. will appreciate if people ard me can give me private space so i can breathe easier. thanks

its a gd friday!! i feel gd.. so gd fri jus made it better... on top of me being a gd boy.

studied in the afternoon n went over to chalet... nice place at the chalet... a place to go to when u feel stressed n burnt out from the hectic nus lifestyle.

my parents n aunt are my first passengers! drove them ard... haha... i was skilled, pro, u named it... whahaha...

shao, ken, lynn n gary came by n chill at the chalet... served them well with food... haha... the best waiter in town... haha... n afterwhich, we went over to fisherman to chill with ben n debbie... haha... but i'm not drunk though. even though ken said tat i'm sprouting nonsense? hmm... haha... we drank a barrel... but we got home safely... nice...

finally.. i passed my long-awaited driving... haha... my red boxers... it realli helped? haha... n i can drive ard as n when i like... not in a sneaky way anymore!! whahaah...

hmm... who shall be the mighty warrior xzr 1st passenger? any volunteers? haha... i knw alot of u are vying for this distinugished seat... whahahh... alrights... shall stop my nonsense n gotta do my work... hhaa

woke up at 10am todae... n benny's lab is at 10? well... cant be bothered though... skipped his lab + econ lect... cos no point to travel 3hrs jus to go 1.5hr of lect... well... i made it up by going thru 2 webcasts... impressive right... haha...

gonna study tmr as well.. time to catch up with sch work...

i am super pissed, angry and sian abt everything.i put in all my efforts, late nights till 3, 4 am+ tried to do everything which i could... but todae it still screwed up... think my dream of 2nd upper hons is gone... totally gone... all thanks to an idiotic free rider who practically screwed up everything...

i thought i had assigned her the easiest task... intro grp members, then flash thru the presentation slides which we presented last time out... but the joke of the day came when she cant even pronounced the name of our cafe? n intro the wrong grp members? on top of tat, she practically went thru the slides in detailed format. i told her thru email, sms, face-to face n wat to do n wat prof expect. but, she jus screwed it up... i tried all sorts of media to tell her, except thru advertising on tv, radio n newspapers? this caused us the marks. the main points to be presented is rushed thru in a fizzy manner. n prof marked us for poor time management + didnt listen to instructions. how great is that... everything i do, went dwn the drain jus becos of 1 person. somemore from VJC.

wanted to blew my top. but i couldnt. this idiot is from my course n i don wan to create a din n then bear with her for the next 3 yrs. end of story.

met wendy todae.. wat a surprise...

nw taking a much needed deserved break... tmr will be the final presentation... nw still rushing for the menu... shucks...

supposed to attend 2 lects n a tut todae... but woke up late + spent some time working on the tut... so, i missed the 2 lects... turned out to be... the tut was postponed.. damn... which means, i went to sch for nothing... wat a waste of time considered i had plenty of things on my mind.

after tmr, i will be free... but not tat free... still need to tie up some loose ends of the report. for this entire proj, i had done;

-profit and loss statement
-sales forecast
-advertising budget
- 3 Ps, promotion + place + pricing
- designing menu: human menu, dog menu, side dish, dessert, drinks, specials, 2 namecards, membership card (to be done) and posters.

which makes up nearly half of everything? but its ok, i had gained valuable knowledge. which giv me an edge at the final paper... wat u reap is wat u sow... wat u shit is wat u eat? i think i'm crazy.

i am officially worn out... i need a rest... a long break from work. but time n schedule doesnt permit tat...
