It seems that there are a lot of computer work for me this semester. CS2103 is about designing a software, which is either in Java or C++. EE2007 is about 8086/8088 computer systems, so we'll need to write assembly language for the course (if you don't know what is 8086 or 8088, it's actually the ancient version of Pentium 4, Pentium DuoCore,Centrino Duo...). Yup, so I'll be spending more time on the computer to do CS2103 project and EE2007 lab project.

Hmm... Looks like I can watch movies on Tuesday and Wednesday. :)

A New Year

CORS Bidding
Finally, managed to get FNA1002X (Financial Accounting), after getting outbidded last semester, when I missed by about 60 points. Anyway, this semester FNA1002X is somewhat "cheaper" than previous semesters for Engineering "Returning Students" (especially for lecture B2, when the bid points are lower than Engineering "New Students"). I suppose it's because they increased the number of slots (from 100 to 130) for Engineering "Returning Students"), so the points are much lower.

CS2103 (Software Engineering) is a "1 bid point" module, even though I put 39 points into it. Someone ask me to put a lot of points for this module, which I can't really do that, because I'm bidding for the "expensive" FNA1002X in the same round as well. The lecture will be held in FASS LT 11, which I don't understand why they want to have the lecture in FASS, when they could have chosen some LTs in Engineering (supposedly the Computing LTs are too small to cater for CPE2 and ISE2 students as well). Maybe because FASS is between Engineering and Computing...

Anyway, this coming semester can be taxing, as there is CS2103 (with quite intensive project) and EE2007 (with intensive laboratory sessions), so think I'll just be taking 5 modules, unless there's anyone that I know who wants to appeal for HR2002 (Understanding Human Relations in the New Economy).

Chalet
Anyway, the BRC Chalet just ended yesterday. Most of us brought laptop to the chalet, to do CORS bidding and to do some Facebook stuff. Anyway, this is more of a food chalet, because we had been eating quite a lot (hotdogs from IKEA, dinner at IKEA, lunch at Maxwell Food Centre, a lot of food for BBQ, snacks...). Ok, at least we did cycle at East Coast Park (which is a bit odd as our chalet is at Pasir Ris). Didn't really play much card games with them at night, as I was quite sleepy (yup, I do sleep a lot).

Ok, anyway, a Happy Belated New Year for those who are reading this.
