my recent obsessions.
2009-03-28//12:24 p.m.

during the past weeks of mugging and assignment-ing, i came across this author, the very amazing, Heather Graham aka Shannon Drake.

she usually writes about paranormal stuff like vampires, ghosts n stuff..the most recent one i read is a book called the dead room.
This book talks about an archaeologist, Leslie, who sees spirits after an 'accident' tt killed her fiancee, Matt. altho the evidences all point to the fact tt it was an accident, she believes it to be a planned murder. a year after the accident, she went back to stay at the place Matt got killed, hoping tt Matt's spirit would assist her in finding out the truth.
quite a nice read for those in favour of mysteries n crime.

another one of my 'obsessions' is rolled oats!haha..aside for being healthy, it is also amazingly delicious.for those who never tried, this is a new recipe for a healthy breakfast!
1. Soak rolled oats in apple juice overnight in the fridge(or at least for 1 hour). this makes the oats soft n nice..soak with slivered almonds and sunflower seeds if so desired.
2. When ready to serve, mix with yoghurt, fruits, lemon juice and honey..altho i usually only use fruit yoghurts, eg strawberry yoghurt, mango yoghurt etc.

this week was quite a fruitful week as i completed a lot of work n made some nice C programmes..however, the 2 new assignments still worries me a bit..the maths assignment which is due thurs is still sitting on the table..i'll get to it soon.... :D
the other one is for engineering computation..after reading thru the project, which is quite challenging, i feel tt it'll take another few nights to get the programme together..thankfully it's due next monday, so i've got a bit more time to mess ard with it..

after a recent chat with sw on msn, i decided to create a feed for the blogspot dependent bloggers so tt my updates will appear in their blog lists n not be neglected..haha...anyways, if u are using blogspot, add this link to ur blog list --> http://rsspect.com/rss/bloodistasty.xml

well..tt's all for now..until next time..

i'm back!
2009-03-09//12:57 a.m.

hohoho!it's been a while..a long while..:D

let's see, after 1st week of uni, which passed by without any major circumstances, i'm into the second week of uni!!oh wells, tt was a teeny bit lame..
anyways, this semester of uni life comprises of the 5 elements: studies, robogals/ctg, sleep, eat, exercise. the importance of each is undeniable, but lets hope i'll maintain the balance well..

first up, studies!
the 4 subjects i picked up are:
> engineering computation - focuses on the use of C language. quite a fun class in my opinion..our lecturer, who incidentally oso wrote our textbook, has quite a good sense of humour..same as my last year's eng lecturers..i wonder if everyone in the engineering faculty is like tt..really interesting..
> vector calculus - well...does this even need explaining? vectors n calculus!!haha..since calculus was one of the subjects i had least difficulty last year..this sem shud b quite ok as well..
> real analysis w applications - erm..this subject is basically abt series, theorems etc. analytical thingys...it's a bit dry, but at least the lecturer tries to tell some jokes or make it interesting..not tt it helps much (:
> secret life of language - dun give me weird looks abt the name of tt subject, it's basically juz a 1st year linguistics subject..analysing the grammar, formation, morphology of language, any language..quite cool..

secondly, robogals/ctg!
well, i helped a bit during orientation week promoting robogals..this wed we'll be meeting someone to discuss the possibilities of teaching the under-privileged and sending them to First Lego League..
ctg...i dunno...haha.basically i guess i'll be backstage or sets crew..haha..this sem's production is directed by the sound designer last yr..v talented person..hope this production goes well..

thirdly, sleep
erm..so ya..sleep..

next up, eat
haha..the legendary rice cooker has juz elevated to become the godly rice cooker!!i can boil soup in it n it doesnt overflow!!!wow!!i dun even need to use any fire, pot or spend time lookin out for it..haha..n i successfully eliminated bones in my normal cooking by the magical use of kitchen scissors!get a piece of maryland n juz cut away the tendons close to the bone!n tada!deboning chicken without a knife!!n i get a whole bone for the soup as well!

last but not least, exercise.
erm..i'll try to swim n run abt n stuff..haha..i juz have the feeling tt this is juz a cycle i'll go thru every year..last year, my weight at 48 kgs..thru the winter, it went up..i dunno how much..but by the time i went back to msia for hols, i couldnt wear some of my jeans already.but amazingly, without dieting or doin anything special, juz slacking ard the house for 1 mth, i'm back to 48 kgs!so i wonder is it the winter months of eating n sleeping?or is it my cooking?or is it having dinner late?or even having supper too often?haha..anyway..even if i gain weight, i'll manage to shrink back at the end of the year..haha..

well, tt was long n winding n tiring i suppose, after so long of not blogging, the interesting stuffs tt come up all disappears!nvm..i'll get back my touch soon!

auf Wiedersehen!
