Saying Goodbye...

Wuh, haven't made any entries for quite a while. Well, quite busy with all these stuffs going on (mainly cause of the laziness). Quite a lot happened lately, financial, emotions, studies and so on, luckily I can still manage to go on.
Let's see the progress of our final project. Erm last time I mentioned about a metal workshop or something. Well their works are totally crap, rubbish, useless____(insert anything you think is reasonable here). heh. I told them to divide the disk into 10 EQUAL parts. Even elementary kid could do that. 360deg divided by 10, equals to 36deg. simple math. You should see what they did. Total bullshitness. I think I'll post the pictures later, comparison between their so-called "profesionals" and our amature works. Yeah, we make it ourselves, and I'd say it's ten times better.
Handling an energy conversion project (mechanical to electrical) is quite tough for me. Having to think this and that, considering we've actually no experience in this field. Which means the need for experimenting. This alone costs few hundred Ringgits. So first we decided to use a simple RC car 12V DC motor. cheep enough, but the gears kind of cost a lot. Then purchased a 5000 l/hour water pump. after seing the pump's performance, i had this feeling that we could actually succeed with our actual vision, which is to use a car alternator. My main doubt before is it won't reach the required RPM, maybe around 1000-2000 RPMs, to power up the alternator. And also the starting torque, might be higher than expected, which results in the turbine not even moving. Fabrication of the casing is in progress, hope to finish it soon enough, before next Wednesday. the casing alone cost around RM300+. Since our group's financial limit, i don't think we could be able to buy an RPM meter, multimeter, and forget about car alternator and battery. Which would cost approximately rm500.
So, I've been thinking and thinking, and finally dicided to let go some of my precious stuff. precious stuff that I am proud to own it before. Very hard to let go, but I still have to make this sacrifice, Just to prove my theory on the Generator project. You can say it's a gamble I'm making. But to think of it, those stuff, I can still buy again later, or even better ones, but if I fail this subject, It'd cost me a bomb to extend my semester. And that is a total NO NO. NEVER.
What are these stuffs I'm talking about?

You can actually see almost everything in these two pictures.
1. Benq FP94VW 19" LCD.. Used this for more than a year already. It really helped me with my multi-taskings and gamings and everything. Trade with a 17" CRT monitor with some topup.

2. Logitech Z-640 5.1 Speaker. The center, front and rear speakers are all on the desk. The sub is right under it. Bass is quite strong, with the surrounding 5 channels. Really hoped It'd stay longer. Tomorrow will COD with the buyer at Ampang point.
















3. Saitek Eclipse 2 Keyboard. One of my favourite. Backlighted keys, the design, hand rest, I can't believe I'm actually letting this one go. Tomorrow will post it to penang.
















And finally, Crucial Ballistix 4GB (2X2GB) 800MHz. this kit can go from 800 to 1200MHz approximately. Quite high. The only ram that helped my Athlon X2 3800 F3 go till 3.3GHz. One of my greatest achievement. ahahah. Sadly one stick is faulty. Haven't have time to send back for RMA. Might COD with someone from N9. This one is yet to be confirmed.

Can't believe I'll be seperated from these.. especially the keyboard and monitor. But then, this is for the best. Hopefully one day I'll get my hands on them again. It took me days to purchase each one, doing researches, reviews, but it only took me less than 4 hours to make the selling deal.

I guess this will be my last entry using this keyboard, displayed by this LCD, while listening to songs from this speaker. It's quite sad to accept this, but yeah, everything happens for a reason.
Now I'm back to CRT, headphones, and old-yellow keyboard! hahah.
Ahh. Look at the time. 4:51 a.m. Still haven't finish updating the website yet. stuck at few things. And got midterm exam at 2:30 pm. And guess what, I haven't even read a single page. I'm still confuse why people still ask me this and that when I'm not even studying anything yet.
Getting quite sleepy already. Hope I can go through the notes few times before I end up sleeping on the floor. hahah. After exam finish, I'm going home. Yippee. Will be picking up a cake at semenyih first. Will explain the cake next time. Better get going now.

Lets hope for a better Today.
