I haven’t been posting for quite some time already. I am really apologetic about that. However, it is really because of my current pile of projects and school work that is wearing me down. No, they are seriously genuine and real excuses. For once I felt that my own judgment was terribly wrong. I always thought that this term, would be an awesome and relaxing one for me. Just sit back, little by little doing project work and then handing them up. I WAS WRONG, so wrong! With my poor time management skills, I cramped up over 3 different subject’s projects onto one week. I rushed them all out and was pleased that I had not been penalized for some of the overdue work. PROJECTS are tough. If you have poor time management, projects are neither fun nor easy. At least for examinations, cramping the last week with just pure textbooks and revision, you might get through the tests with ease. For projects, research and all the other time consuming stuff has to be well planned and carried out accordingly else they will not be completed in time.

Term 3 supposedly was my relaxing and fun term in my opinion. However, I was proved wrong and am kind of surprised with the outcome and how current things are going. Nevertheless since this is my first time ever having such a curriculum, I am confident the next time such a term ever comes again, I will be prepared. Cut shot about my ranting and etc about how tiresome and exhausting term 3 is, I’ll touch more about some of the other interesting happenings that had just happened.

Just received a event to “Do the David Gan”. Hmm, I was supposed to take a picture of me having my hand on my shoulder showing off my branded watch. Well, I guess following someone else was kind of like stupid, so I decided to, “Do the Polar … Bear”. Right so heres a picture of my bear, doing the polar bear.

Just upgraded to Wordpress 2.6 (huh? So soon? Yes I had the same reaction). Hit the jump for a video done by the official team on the new features etc.

At long last my site got approved. The screenshots they provided were awesome. The features they promise sound fantastic. Finally, I got to try it for myself. Just a brief introduction what Woopra is. Woopra is a traffic statistic tool used by webmasters to record down traffic details etc. Just take for example google analytics. It is somewhat like that but more of a desktop application. In addition, it uses beautiful and detailed graphs to display information, adds more features such as chatting with the users that is currently online etc. A small but great little tool for webmasters to use.

June 08 has been a month that is extremely packed and fulfilling. As most of you know, June has always been a month that students loved. The month of the semester break which means a wholesome 30 days of rest, fun and whatever. I have always had the same semester break for the all the past years. However, 2008 had been totally different. 2008 semester break has been nothing but chaotic, hectic and tiring. Rest? Nah, spent my days and time running around, flying and crossing islands. You can actually read it here at this article: http://www.swiftworld.net/2008/06/17/back-from-nco-camp-and-taiwan-trip/

With that I’ll just shift the focus to what had recently taken place. An NPCC event, yes again. This time it just happen a few hours ago so I can still remember whatever that have had happen vividly. I just participated in a NPCC Monopoly game competition. Monopoly? The board game? Well you can say so, but instead, it is somewhat a life-sized version of the game. Alright, I know all of you will go rolling your eyes already, me too when I first heard it was the monopoly, I was like hell yeah, slack and fun. However, to my surprise, it was a LIFE-SIZED monopoly. My immediate reaction? For heavens’ sake, no way! Still, I went and must say it was alright, not too boring or retarded as I thought it might be.
