Bollywood Dancing In My Room

You've seen my robot went nuts and spinning round and round, despite on how I've programmed it should be.

Here's the video again


The next day, I was having my lunch in front of my laptop. A bug,



this is it, the star for today,

landed on my desk, and it starts to...



SPIN!!!

The same way like how my robot did it!

I swear I did not played any Hindi songs when these two incidents occurred. I hope that I'm not the next one that start to spin round and round without any reasons.

My Robot's Donut Drifting

In case you are wondering why I did not updated my blog for almost a week, this is what I was doing...



If you have watched Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift, you still remember the scene where Han was driving his Mazda RX7 doing a doughnut around a hot chick's car and win the phone number? (I'm not sure whether Impak Maksima has the same scene or not *roll eyes*



Well, my robot can do it too, but without the hot chicks and some smoke...



Actually this is not how I program it to be, it just behaved on its own. Perhaps there's short circuit in its brain that makes it gone crazy (pun intended).

As there is only 3 more weeks to hand up the report, and troubleshooting the circuit is very time consuming, so I...

Redraw the PCB layout...

Re-fabricate the PCB...

Re-drill hundreds of holes on the new PCB...

Solder hundreds of pins and legs...

Re-test the new circuit (still having some problems thou)...

And the best part is,

I did all this with a swelling eye which I have difficulties to fully open it and my visionary is blur.

FYP is really killing me slowly.

Oh, and by the way, the new circuit is a lot tidier than the jungle you seen in the picture :P

Let's say I just call my kid kid.

Kid: Papa, how come the...
Me: *Cut in before he can even finish his question* Papa is busy with his Final Year Project now, ask some other time can? Shoo~ shoo~~

Dear Pickle,

It has been a year since the day you left me. How are you doing under the Rainbow Bridge? You sure made a lot of friends there with the charm you have huh.

Eventhough a year has passed, but the memories of both of us together are still fresh inside my mind. From the first day I brought you home, you brought me lots of laughters and entertainments. I can still remember when the light was switched off, which is the time you'll come out from your hidebox and explore, I'll place my hand inside your cozy home and you'll come to sniff and lick my hand out of curiosity. I can still remember you love my bed so much that you'll cuddle inside inside my blanket and start sleeping like a pig, eventhough sometimes you left me some "gift", where I need to clean my blanket and mattress cover. I can still remember that once I put you on my laps while I was playing my computer, and suddenly I felt some warm water started spreading across my pants and my skin, you got me again without any warnings. I can still remember the way you run, the way you curl up when you felt threaten but uncurl again when you found out that it was just me, the way you chewed your favorite mealworms out of my hands where you accidentally bit my fingers sometimes...

The happy moments came to an end when you became ill, very ill. No local vets can treat you well. That was when I made the most difficult decision in my life, that is to end your suffering by putting you to sleep. I could not bear to see what you were going through anymore. You could not even stand up. You were completely paralyzed. It's very heart breaking to see you suffers. After I took you from the vet's hand, I tried not to cry, even when my eyes started to fill with tears. I should be happy about it as your sufferings had came to an end. I hope I've made the right decision.

I'll miss you, always.



Your best friend,
hao

I Saved A Turtle Today

There's no need for me to emphasize how critically endangered turtle is. For the past few days, few popular bloggers had already tell the tale of the extinction that the turtle is going to face (More on here and here).



What you can do to help is to:
SMS WWF <space> your full name <space> Email and send to 39398. Each SMS donates RM3. Or go to wwf.org.my website to donate.

If the RM3 means a lot to you, then
1. Chat just 5 minutes less on the phone with your loved ones, they won't leave you just because you talk a little bit lesser to them on just one call;
2. Save up the 30-filled-with-craps-most-of-the-time SMS, use IM instead;
3. Stop MMS'ing Edison scandal pictures/videos with your friends, use bluetooth instead.

and you might save a turtle's life, how cool is that?



Well, I've done my part. How bout you?

Side note: A helpless financial problem facing student is looking for some fund for his graduation trip. What you can do to help him is to email me: DONATE <space>Your name (optional, I won't care either if you put it anyway) <space> amount. I'll send you my bank account.

PS: Just kidding on the side note part :P
