hohoho

pleased to announce the end of exams.

With that a promised flow of entries.
Todays paper was weird. It came out questions which i was quietly hoping wouldnt appear. but well it did. and then there was this 9 marks question which required us to refer to our notes and copy word for word. haha that is called tan dio. ultimate tan dio.

back home we went. after a lunch of JP banmian.

within a couple of hours i was out of house again, to buy ah lai bdae gift. which wasnt easy.
so we had dinner at Riverside indonesian restaurant which was good. slightly better than rice table. and had drinks at crazy elephant.

they had this lcd tv that flashed dirty jokes...

such as

what is the difference between a light bulb and a pregnant woman?
Ans: You can unscrew a light bulb.


What is a three 2-letter word that describes small?
Ans: Is it in

haha yeah so thats how i spend the last day of my exams.

ultimate Euphoria

Yeah
2 papers more. half undone the other half..undone-ed.

frankly i dunno wat the above phrase means anyway. well the gals gonna finish the pp one day earlier than us....thats gd for them but its a certain morale-debooster for the guys...haha.

oh yeah fluids...interesting subject. I like to attend the lectures and all....but tis like one friggin hard paper.

I just realise one thing... constant revision counts for NOTHING! cos by the time of the exam...everything else jus disappears!

so one thign's for sure next SEM NO MORE CONSTANT REVISION!!!!


haha gdnite

How long does it take to burn a friggin' DVD.
Mother gave me 2 DVDs to burn...and it took me like 2 hours to burn one copy? hmm

Sure it's been one helluva week but at least its over. Last two papers on ym agenda...ole! Wed is the last paper and then it will be FYP...sigh. wonder if there'll be tme for the beach.

And then Dear's going China...and then Its so cold there now... Beijing is like 0 degrees while Shanghai slightly warmer... 5 degrees. haha not that it matters a lot.

ok time to study. good luck.

That the meter is the length of path travelled by light in a vacumn during a time interval of
1/299792458 of a second?

Bet you didnt know..

besides who in the right frame of mind would wanna know.

not I.

So i concluded my first paper today... design . and wat a controversial story there is to this paper...
Weeks ago it was accidentally leaked out by the examiners...so everyone got pretty excited about it.


And i pretty much studied just the paper... haha and then lo and behold as luck would have it....i flipped the questions and got stumped.... they changed it... grrr... a bit pissed and feeling unjustified at a small issue...not very small to me as i got affected by it...

came home first thing i did was email the examiner... email as follows:


Dear Jiawei,

I have forwarded your e-mail to the examiner concern to ensure that all students are not disadvantaged by the events.

Regards
Viet Phung


Dear student,

The exam paper has F and Fc in Q1.

And there is no official announcement, so students should work out for themselves what are F and Fc. (the additional writing "F is different than Fc" should be obvious to students when they start to solve the question ).

If you feel that your marks are affected by this, then please lodge in an appeal when the exam result is released.

Regards,
Viet Phung.
Examiner.

Subject: MP4011 exam that just concluded

Dear sir,

I am emailing you to tell you about my displeasure at the way certain procedures of the exam was carried out. Do not take any offence for I am just telling you my concerns and what could have been done.

When we entered the exam hall at Hall L, the first thing i saw on the board "F = Fc"

okay nobody said anything about it. and just before we were allowed to start writing the words were erased. Again nobody clarified anything about it.

Question one mentioned provided a formula which clearly stated that F refered to the cutting force. I was stumped at the question since i recalled that earlier on F = Fc was written on the board. As you can guess...i used the frictional force in my own method which was weird. i chose to use the frictional force times the Dp/2 because i was desperate. Hence i cannot find the right motor.

After the paper was over and my scripts was collected, I lifted my head and was stunned when the words " F not equal to Fc" was written across tha board" I was agitated thhat i didnt know that there was such a valuable piece of information!

Nobody mentioned any changes..nobody even spoke into the mic to tell everyone present.
In future, i hope u take into consideration that when students are doing exam, every second is precious and we would not expect any thing to appear on the white board if nobody says a thing.

for all my years of examination, this is the first time i encountered this issue and would like to suggest that in future if there are any changes to the informaiton on the board, we students would be told beforehand.

for it is indeed weird that i come to the exam hall and see the words F=Fc ...in my mind it was sort of fixed in my head already that F=Fc. hence i was deeply affected in the first question. I am not writing this email in hope for compassion but just to share my views and hope for the best for the future students.

Furthermore when the paper ended, i was outside asking my fellow friends and to my amazement quite a lot of them didnt even know there was anything on the board. As such if the board decides to provide any information i would appreciate it if it be let known to everyone.



Regards

Jiawei



wat the hell... might as well not explain to me... i mean why u wanna gif students info and jus secretly write on the board and dun tell anyone...u expect me to check the board every few mins ah....@#$#@$


grrrowl...okay u asked me to lodge an appeal if i feel that it affects me...fine if i get anything less than a B i promise i will lodge an appeal AKA donation to NTU .


haha. ok enough said. angry also no use... my fault also for being so gullible.

...To Euler, Bernou Li Navier and Stokes....

These fine gentlemen have brought us nothing but trouble since the day they left this world....


one day Bernou Li was walking down King Albert Park..where he spotted MacDonalds...and then his tummy was growling... so he decides...hmm i really need a big ol' Mac now... With that.. he ordered his Big Mac....he was sipping his cola thru the thin straw which can be assumed as a long hollow beam with thin walls...Bernouli SUCKS the cola thru the straw.. which led him to think " HOw da hell did i do that?"

With his half eaten Big Mac...he kept pondering while the occasional Hwa Chong and MGS chio bu zipped pass him....so he sucks... " Lets say the cola is incompressible" he took a coke can and crushed it so hard that it refused to budge... Navier Ong was nearby and saw him.

" eh you siao ah! COKE density is constant la! u tink u can crush it?"

"hmm...no wonder i couldnt make it budge?" wondered Bernou Li.

"Any idea wats the ambient pressure around here, mate?" he asked Navier.

"Well, one can never be too sure but lets just say its atmospheric?" Navier replied thoughtfully.

He asked for a smaller cup of coke and drank the cola with a shorter straw but of same diameter. he drank the coke even faster. whihc of cos is no surprise to any of us Laymen let along Bernou Li.

Navier was surprised that Bernou Li achieved that feat. "Holy Moley.... "

The next senctence he spoke....made him famous....rich... and hugely unpopular among engineering students...... the below is an excerpt of his infamous speech made in KAP macs....many year ago.....


NAvier ong was telling Bernou Li " Tell you tell he plus you tell you tio axe plus HE tell you tell why plus DOuble you tell you tell Jack equal one over row tell pee tio axe plus He bracket tell to you tio axe square plus tell to you tell why square plus tell to you tell jack square close bracket."

-----(1.2)

Bernouli was puzzled....


So were we.....


not to be outdone Bernou Li told him "SInce the density of coke is constant.... and the pressures inside the cup and outside are assumed to be atmospheric as you said... hence i conclude that if i take pressure insde the cup plus the speed squared of which i am sucking.... should give me the length of the Straw leh!"


wow...


such wise man...


That was just the stories of Navier Ong and Bernou Li whihc made them famous... wait till you hear the rest.


farewell.

YUM yum....similan ???
