i'm back ... for awhile

Thank you suwei for your intro. anyway back to my life. been quite bz since i last updated. tmr is ANZAC day which i dun know wat is it all about. so when to wikipedia.org to search about it and this is wat i got:

"ANZAC army formations and units include both Australian and New Zealand troops. The term ANZAC originated as an acronym for the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, an army corps of Australian and New Zealand troops who fought against the Turks in 1915 at the Battle of Gallipoli during World War I. The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps was disbanded in 1916 and other ANZAC formations were then formed and fought during that war in the Middle East and on the western Front.

The term ANZAC was used again during the Vietnam Was as part of the name of battalions comprising Australian and New Zealand troops.

Within Australisia, ANZAC came to stand not just for the troops in World War I, but for Australian and New Zealand soldiers in time of war more generally. ANZAC day is observed annually in memory of those soldiers who died in war. It is commemorated each year by both countries on April 25, the date of the first landing at Gallipoli in 1915 on a beach known as ANZAC Cove. (It is similar to days such as Memorial Day, Veteran Day, Armistice Day, Remembrance Day or V-E- Day commemorated in other countries.) "

Got my exam timetable recently. Quite bad actually but will do my best.

ECE 4099 - Professional Practice - 5 June - 9.30 am
ECE 3073 - Computer System - 9 June - 9.30 am
ECE 3031 - Control System - 11 June - 2.30 pm
ECE 3039 - Optmisation, Estimation and Numerical Method - 23 June - 9.30 am

Very cramp in the beginning and 2 weeks off before the last paper. haih ....

This year is my final year, 4th year of engineering. got my thesis project to do. the one i currently working on is a group work. doing with my friend, Satyia. the topic is "Closed Loop Control of An Axial Flux Motor". Handed in our proposal last week and this proposal means progress report. Also known as requirement analysis where suppose to write wat we had done so far. Basically, we are going to build a controller which controls the speed of the axial flux motor. Because this project is a continuation of previous project, we went to test out the motor the other day but FAILED miserably. Did not get to start the motor coz everytime we turn on the switch, the fuse switch trips. then got a bunch of "trash" (controller built by previous student but didnt work but he wont 5th prize for overal thesis projects ... wth) which need to be debug to find out wat it does. but like i said, TRASH ... just build a new one la. hehe :) ... currently been doing alot of reading and simulation. taking so much time and that doesnt include assignment and test for other subjects. sleep late every nite is like so usual for me adi. sometimes even have to cook in the room just to do my work. nvm ... final year. PATIENT !!!! :)
