Assignment Time

Gaahhh…Don’t need to say this again, but bloody hell it’s assignment time.

Like every semester, assignment pressure is a must. Even last minute work is also a must. That’s where the best kind of work comes to life right? :P

Anyways because the sillybus has changed, there will be ONLY 2 assignments. But don’t be deceived by the number. It’s much more work and much more sleepless nights.

So first assignment, C++ assignment by the cute and lovable Miss Bridget in her FPCOP (Further Programming Concepts In C++) subject… Seems like a simple console program for Human Resource department to use.

You are required to develop an application to enter, search, edit and view personnel information of the staff in the company. This application is used by Human Resource, staff and administrator of this application. The main purpose of this application is to keep and able to further edit the complete personal record of each staff in the company. In this course work, you are required to build a Win32 Console Application that is capable to enter, search, edit and view personnel information of any staff in the company, base on different access priority. In addition, a supporting document is needed to reflect the architecture of the application and the implementation details that able to highlight object oriented programming concepts.

Program seems simple and straight forward to me. It’s just the documentation part of it that really sweats me up. But got confidencelah. If not A+, A++. Hahaha…

Oh yea, new addition to sillybus is the documentation part. Has to be much more elaborated, sophisticated, canggihfied, beautified, electrofikasi, etc. So mahfan.

Moving on.

Kalai Anand’s Web Programming class, has been… Well, better not talk about it. He’s assignment is another thing as well. He wants us to build up an Online Banking System, similar to those Maybank2U, or CIMB Clicks, etc. but it’s an individual assignment.

Maybank2U.com is built by 10 people and he wants us to build ours fully functional alone? Crazy. Also, being Kalai Anand (he’s known through out the college as a [t00t] lecturer…) he’s asking quite alot as well. Seems like I’ll have to seek professional help – which I already did. Kekeke.

Here’s a few requirements that he wanted.

Programming Languages: PHP Language, MySQL
Site Features: Security, able to support standard banking facilities (pay bills, direct debits, FDs, Credit cards, cheques, current & savings account, loans, etc). Able to allow customers to download statements, history of banking.

Optional features (bonus points): Proper security, more features, algorithms, stronger database (Oracle!!), SMS (Short Message System) gateway, etc.

His optional features are VERY tempting, but it uses a hell a lot of time to complete.

Those who’s not very versed with computers, don’t think “Ala, it’s just a site with a lot of buttons to click at and text fields for you to put in numbers and press the send button and wait.”. In actual fact, that’s what we have to do to the website in order for you to do that.

So be thankful for geeks, else you can’t enjoy your expensive phones, MP3 players, etc. Because it’s us geeks who made it for you. :P

Enough said, I’ll be suffering for the rest of the semester. Gaahhh!!

Put Your Balls Where They Belong

Seriously.

There will be times you’ll need to stand up for what you believe in, no matter what the issue is. Even if you’re damn sure you’re doing the wrong thing, but the mere fact that you’re standing up and holding your ground shows how determined you are.

If you’re in China and you hate communism, do this during a military parade:

Who’s got the balls now?

Trading Paint

It’s sometimes unavoidable. Maybe it’s just your day – good or bad doesn’t matter. That weird wave of errors or luck will just come in your way and just mess things up for once.

Guess what? I traded paint today.

Close up pics after the jump.

A Girl’s Revenge

A girl and her boyfriend are out having a few drinks.

While they’re sitting there having a good time together, she starts talking about this really great new drink. The more she talks about it, the more excited she gets, and starts trying to talk her boyfriend into having one.

After a while he gives in and lets her order the drink for him. The bartender brings the drink and puts the following items on the bar: A salt shaker, a shot of Baileys, and a shot of lime juice.

The boyfriend looks at the items quizzically and the woman explains. "First you put a bit of the salt on your tongue, next you drink the shot of Baileys and hold it in your mouth, and finally you drink the lime juice."

So, the boyfriend, trying to go along and please her, goes for it. He puts the salt on his tongue, salty but OK. He drinks the shot of Baileys; smooth, rich, cool, very pleasant. It was still OK for him.

Finally he picks up the lime juice and drinks it.

…. In one second the sharp lime taste hits.
…. At two seconds the Baileys curdles .
…. At three seconds the salty, curdled taste & mucous-like consistency hits.
…. At four seconds it feels as if he has a mouth full of nasty snot.

This triggers his gag reflex, but being manly, and not wanting to disappoint his girlfriend, he swallows the now foul tasting drink. When he finally chokes it down he turns to his girlfriend, and says, "Jesus, what do you call that drink?"

She smiles widely at him and says, *"Blow Job Revenge."*

Purely forwarded message from fellow senior, Sharon Pang! (not the one you see on the subtitles on the TV or movies) And,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHARON PANG PANG!!11onetwo

Definition of Home Town

What’s the definition of Hometown? I remember coming across a post about hometowns from William’s blog, and i kept thinking whether my response was correct.

According to Google’s define function:

Definitions of Hometown on the Web:
The town (or city) where you grew up or where you have your principal residence;

But, in our words, what is it?

 Some said it’s the place where you grew up. Some also said it’s where you were born. There’s also who said it’s where your grandparents lives.

But which is the correct one?

Here’s a scenario to ponder on. Your grandparents – we’ll assume it’s your father’s side – lives in Ipoh. So your hometown is Ipoh correct? All your uncle, aunties and cousins will be heading to Ipoh.

So one day, your grandparents decided to shift down to KL. KL so big, so we’ll choose Subang for instance. Now Subang is your hometown, right?

Moving on, there will be a time that all your grandparents will move on, so now, where will your hometown be? Lets assume, your father isn’t the first child. So is your first uncle’s place is your hometown, or your home? Now that’s something to think about.

Here’s another scenario, but maybe just something I made up. When you have kids, where is their home town? Your parent’s place, or your first uncle’s place? (assuming they are still alive and you answered the previous question with your first uncle’s place is your home town)

I don’t know the answer to any of this. Hope someone can enlighten me.
