Time flies, and once again Robocon 2010 is here! This year, Malaysia Robocon domestic competition will be held at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia from 22nd to 27th June 2010. The theme is “Robo-Pharaohs Build Pyramids“, in conjunction with the myth and history of the international game hosting country, Egypt.

For those of you who have no idea what’s Robocon, it’s an annual robotic competition where teams from different institutes of higher learning construct robots to complete certain tasks, and the team who manage to complete the tasks in the shortest time and scores the highest point wins the game.

Robocon 2006 Theme Song – With the Best of Them All

Some dreams are meant for dreaming

But mine was meant for more

There’s something about this feeling

That I’ve never felt before

It speaks to me of greatness

By the champions of Man

Then quietly it whispers

Saying I am one of them

So I will give my all

And I will reach the end

If you should see me fall

Be assured I’ll rise again

For I am not alone

On this weathered road to glory

So when you tell my story

Say that I stood tall

With the best of them all

I understand their passion

I recognize their name

It seems our revelation

Are one and the same

Then it dawns upon me

This is what it’s all about

May the best of us be greater

May the rest of us be proud

So I will give my all

And I will reach the end

If you should see me fall

Be assured I’ll rise again

For I am not alone

On this weathered road to glory

So when you tell my story

Say that I stood tall

With the best of them all

This will be my story

That I stood in glory

This will be my story

That I stood in glory

I will stand tall

With the best of them all…

Though we didn’t make it for the past 2 years, that doesn’t stop us from continue trying…

If you should see me fall, be assured I’ll rise again!!!

Just wanna wish my juniors ALL THE VERY BEST in this year’s competition !!! May the best team win…

Nothing much to update lately, guess life at home is just not as happening as uni’s.

Just wanna ask you guys, do I look like a soft person…? (nah, not those gay type la…)

The reason I’m asking this is because I’ve been having problem with maids lately:

1) Back to grandma’s house, and the maid kept complaining things to me.

2) Went to uncle’s house, same thing happened.

3) This morning my ex-neighbor, who’s also working as a part time maid, also did the same thing.

I mean, if they have problem, shouldn’t it be more appropriate to confront the source of problem, instead of getting me into their problem? Am I some sort of “cushion”?

I do respect every single person around me, no matter what status they’re having, but does that mean that they can just manipulate me for their own advantage?

Well, I guess I’m just not the type who can hire maid to work for me in future… haha.

Nothing much to update lately, just came back UTM to settle some stuffs to postpone my convo and ended up without solution.

Wanna find lecturer for recommendation letter but he’s not around.

Went Singapore with the team members and have a look with the company I previously applied. To my surprise, the office’s SO BIG that it can hardly stuck 10 person inside.

Celebrated course mate’s birthday, someone’s getting old…

Yet getting blur… =P

Finally completed my long-delayed modified power supply. Soldered 2 pieces of 32-bits PIC Microcontroller…

And got myself a new PIC Programmer.

Will be bored to dead without these few gadgets with me for the coming 2-month holiday at home.

Have been sleeping in lab for few days and my back started to ache. Miss my sleeping bed.

Today, I’m going back home…

People says,”It is always darkest before dawn”… It is really true?

Because for the last whole weekend, I have been getting all the unexpected shits… and lost almost half of everything.

One week left, can I make it in time?

I can’t believe it…

I really can’t believe it…

That I’m being so reckless…

That at this critical moment, I decided to make this major change to my project’s whole mechanism.

Intuition? I doubt it…

And yet I really did, rushed and completed in one day.

Hope this time it can really works…

“Eh? Why are you still doing mechanism?” by ZSCheong

Things that didn’t change this year, I still:

1) Didn’t celebrate CNY at KL.

2) Spent 1st day of CNY at Singapore, 2nd at PN, Johor.

Things that did change this year:

1) Accidentally formed a “clan” – Broken Ninjas.

Just for fun

2) Broke record in term of having the most number of “Reunion” Dinners before CNY. Tried different styles of dinner, including…

… steamboat in the rain.

3) Break record for spending almost a week in PN for CNY holiday.

Wishing all my frenz out there Happy Chinese New Year 2010. Take care there and keep in touch…
