Something From My Heart / Mind
I was going through my archives just now when I noticed that my posts contain quite a lot of photos recently and I have not been writing stuffs on my feeling and personal view on certain issue that happened in my life lately. Perhaps, I have that little intention of blogging for an audience when I was writing my post. Forgive me.
Recently, my blog has offended someone a group of people. Lets not go into the details, you never know shit might just hit the fan because of this. Honestly, I do not think that my blog needs any disclaimer, by all means. My blog is a place for me to write anything that happened to me or under that the sun, so that I can go through my past by reading them again as I get older. My blog – “Jason Mumbles” belongs to me and nobody owns it. Maybe Blogger does, but still, it is my blog. Therefore, I have all my rights and power to write anything I want, bad or good stories, and how I want the story is being told, from my own point of view or a bias mind. You are welcomed to give your feedbacks or debate over the issue, but you have no say when it comes to questions like “Why I want to blog this?” or “Why you blog about his/her bad stories?” I suppose this is the most basic rule when comes to blogging, right? No? Then it leads to another question – “What is the most basic and golden rule when it comes to blogging?” Anyway, I have made my point and hopefully, it will not happen again. I am sorry as well. -smiles-
It has been 2 months since the thunderstorm between my parents and me ended. Although I was not too keen on the idea with my parents reading my blog, but as Auntie Lilian said, I have to accept and face the fact that my parents are reading my blog from now on. For 2 months, my dad has been respecting my blog, as in not complaining about the 5W’s regarding bout my blog, except for my mum who grumbles to my dad about my blog. (As long as she does not grumble in front of me, I am fine with that.) In other words, I am getting used to it and I am glad that my parents are now reading my blog. Since my dad started reading my blog, we have more conversation communication through emails and obviously, this is a good sign.
Taking the most recent example regarding about my broken specs, my dad has emailed me today and requested me to change to a new specs and he will pay for it as long as it is below RM300. Thanks a lot, Pa! If I have never blog about my specs, I guess I will be wearing this “handicapped” specs for a long time, or until I have save enough money to change to a new specs. Anyway, I am still thinking whether I should change the lens only as the frame is still usable or get a new specs as Kancil Killer and Tiu Nia Sing said my specs looked “Ah-Beng” and “Lou Tou 老土”. –sweat-
Lets talk some academic stuff for my parents’ sake so that they get to know what is my progress in my academic.
I will be starting to have my mid term examination next week and the first subject is none other than my once-failed ECT 1016 Circuit Theory. Although I have been studying for about 2 to 3 hours almost every weekday in the library, I am still not confident with myself yet. Although I am able to solve most (about 75%) of the examples and tutorial questions, I still have some problems when it comes to certain circuits, especially circuits that have various voltage source and current source. I was in the library for about 5 hours today, fully concentrating on this subject only and yet, I still have problem solving certain circuits. –sighs- I guess I shall see the lecturer – Mr. Alan Tan tomorrow. He is a very good lecturer and is a genius when comes to programming. Whether my hard work will pay off, I will only get to know next Wednesday. –double sighs-
I have been assigned as the main programmer for ECP 2036 Microprocessor And System Interfacing, which I have to write a program using assembly code to display the 26 alphabets and 10 digits on a 8*8 dot matrix display by using a Intel 8051 Microprocessor. This is a heavy burden as the whole group and project will depend on my program to work and to score. Any kind Samaritan is willing to help me with the program or give me some guidelines? Mr. Kiasu? Michael Ooi? Jinlan? Big Big Mug? I failed this subject before and I was also the main programmer for the assignment for this subject last year. I was required to write a program that has the function of a basic calculator by using a LCD display unit, a HEX keypad and a Intel 8051 Microprocessor. I failed to produce the program, in other words, I failed the whole group. –triple sighs-
Wish me luck and pray for me, I need lots of them.
My holidays are coming soon. There are a few plans currently and I have yet to decide which plan I will be using. Most likely I will go K.L. to meet Milly (again) and more bloggers this time. Currently on the list are Mun Kit (again), Juliana (again), Carol, Mr. Tiu Nia Sing, Mr. Kiasi, Twinsmom, MSau, Loc Kee and perhaps Mumsgather or 1+2mom.
There is one more thing I wanted to write here, but I think it deserves another entry on its own. Perhaps, 2 days later? I need to get some rest, as I am very tired after staying in campus for almost half a day. Besides, I have 2 lab sessions, 1 tutorial class and 1 replacement class, which means I will be in campus from 8AM to 12Noon, 2.30PM to 6.30PM and 8PM to 10PM today. –quadruple sighs-
P/S :
I sighs for ten times in one post.
I just noticed, with this post, the picture at the background is fully exposed for the first time. -grins- She is NeeNee’s sister - Yen Nee. The picture was not drawn by me.
Happy 19th birthday (21/7) to Xi Voon! Click here to visit her blog. Hint : SYT!

ECT 1016 Circuit Theory
I remembered this one. My class got an indian lecturer for this course. At the end of the course, everyone understand why that course is sick because we have come to understand that this course is actually called “Sakit Theory” instead.
Stupid lecturer pronouce this Sakit Theory throughout the whole semester. No wonder everyone either called in sick or got sick during each lecture.

Good luck with your exams!
Yeah, sometimes you can’t please everyone about what you blog about. Great that your parents are using the blog as a way to get to know you better. Keep that door opened.
It’s mega sale time so maybe you can get some cool frames at discounted prices?
July 23rd, 2005 13:10
I think to display alphabets and digits using the 8051 chip is much easier than programming a calculator that requires +, -, *, / operations. The lecture slides acually very helpful. We used most of the contents from the lecture slides last year. For more reference, Google for “8051″, and “display”.. Google is everything, man. Good luck!

Andy / Tiu Nia Sing / Gah Yoong / Grace / Wingz : Thanks!
Loc Kee : Very long meh the post? Not say you are just plain lazy. Don’t want lah, 1 blog is enough. What for I want to be anoymous just to blog about somebody. No point, right? Hehe, aboh? You met Milly and so many others, but not me ler!
Emotionalistic : Yeah, it is a good thing. It opens up the door. :)
Msau : Haha! Thats because you got the email mah~! Don’t so “lan lek”. :P Nolah, he came back from China liao.
Egghead : Yaloh, “sakit theory” memang sakit. Urrgggh~!
Simon : I won’t start a food blog, that’s for sure. 1 blog is enough. The photo blog is started to upload those photos that I didn’t upload in my main blog only. So, can say its a follow up of the same post.
MengZhee : She’s been linked because she’s been linked loh~! No reason. :D Soon, this week I guess.
Mumsgather : Yaloh~ a group of them lagi! Haha! Yaloh, according to Kancil Killer and Tiu Nia Sing woh~! *sob sob* Eeee, like that ah, nevermind loh~! I ask Twinsmom to describe you. :P
Twinsmom : Yeah, looking forward to meet you too! Yeeeeeeerrrrr…. This is so unfair!

Hao : Wait for you? Die loh~! Haha!
Mug Mug : Thank you for your recommendation. Haha! Thanks!
Boo_licous : Thanks! Yeah, I wrote them an email to apologize and explain to them that it is my blog and they don’t have any say on it. Yeap, I will do so as long as I blog. Hmm, if only those shops follows the mega sales, which I doubt they will.
Narrowband : Thanks for the tips!
