Random Quotes Of The Week:
"Now that's an interesting picture...but it got nothing to do with the slide."
- Dr Leung (On a random lecture slide)
"Now we come to the next line, which is not that important, but in fact, it is still very important."
- Dr Leung (On a random program)
"Suppose 10 years later...you come back to the program. And you want to design a 4 dimensional cylinder."
- Dr Leung (On polymorphism)
Dr Woo: "So is everything OK? Or is it too abstract?"
Stranger: "Your whole course is abstract lah..."
- Random Stranger (Random F-Maths Lecture)
"We are engineers, not mathematicians. We're not interested in knowing how they derive those formulas. We just need to know how to apply them."
- Dr Woo (On proving formulas)
"TTL stands for Transistor Transistor Logic... Some students call it Totally Totally Lost."
- Dr Chan (On TTL)
"DON'T just say YES or NO. Justify the answer."
- Dr Shi (Relations Lecture, being kind of piss of)
"Never look back at what you have brought."
- Mr Ben (MSN, on items becoming cheaper)

In The Class:
Been a real busy week... lots of quotes too. The 2 maths subject are driving me to my limits. It seems like they are competing against each other to see which can confuse their audience more. Their difficulty far exceeds any other subjects at this moment...
Computer Systems
I really got nothing much to say... except that the people in the lecture room gets fewer and fewer with each passing day. I wonder if I select a SCE Year 1 student at random, what is the probability that he's going to skip this class?
Logic Design
Wah... die man. It's definitely getting tougher. For the first time I'm actually totally confuse at what the lecturer is saying. Totally Totally Lost indeed.
Discrete Maths
Justify your answer. Justify your answer. I don't want to repeat... Just read THIS.
Foundation Maths
I am really really helpless with this module. I can barely understand 5% of what the lecturer says. The mean content I can understand is 1 line out of 10 lines with a standard deviation of 1 line.
I'm going to dedicate the my entire Saturday for the 2 Maths Subject (Probably more for this). From 1pm to 1am. 12 solid hours. Minimum break. No gaming, no TV, no stupid MSN messages, no any other funny stuffs.
Data Strucutres Programming
Now, seriously. I think this whole thing is screwed up. I think I actually spent MORE time doing the report then writing the program, which is just plain wrong. The report details are vague, unclear, ambiguous and just plain confusing.
On the other hand, students will be penalize heavily for anything in the report that doesn't adhere to the format. WHAT THE CRAP?!
This is a PROGRAMMING module, not "Report Writing" module. Why do we have to undergo this kind of torture? Why do we suffer this kind of treatment?
They didn't state down clearly the basic details like what to include in the softcopy and submission, or how the marker would go about marking.
Instead, they TRY TO INSTILL fear create panic among the students by saying things like:
"The due dates are subjected to change without prior notice",
"Ensure there are no unnecessary files in your folder",
"Any duplicate submission after receiving your first copy will be treated as Recycle Paper", "Each line should NOT be more than 80 characters",
"Each indentation should be 4 spaces wide only"
"You could get 3 marks reduction from each of the above non-ideal format".
I completed the program in 2 days, but I spent 5 days worrying about the report. WHAT A SHITLOAD OF CRAP.
