*Sigh*......
What a wasted blog space again..... Well I don't think there's not because nothing for me to write, most probably it's no any free time for me to write...
Well, MLE term test at 4 o'clock later, but have no idea what to prepare anymore. Having a weird feeling: "Still don't know anything about MLE, but don't know what else to prepare...". Weird...
Since there's some time for me, then this entry will help me to spend the time.
9th September 2008 (TUES)Jia Qing (Nurdiyantho) had booked my morning time to have a match of badminton. It's somehow very weird though, when I asked whether to have Ying Chieh and Wern Fei to join us, the answer is "no!". It's ok, but somehow the badminton court in PGP was used for some occasion at the time we went there. No where to go, and we ended up in my room. After a while I heard somebody's knocking the door of my clustermate's room, which next to mine. It's quite weird to have someone to knock someone's door early in the morning. Thought RA or some officials, I had my way to open the door. But Jia Qing stopped me! My god! Why he wanted to do so??? Was there any problem for me to open the door???
Anyway, he opened the door slowly and my goodness! I saw two familiar faces in front of me, with some thing flashing down there! Ying Chieh and Wern Fei were carrying a birthday cake! Surprised! Well, I don't know what's the expression on my face that time, but Ying Chieh said it's funny.... After that we carry on the standard procedure after birthday cake is shown. Haha, still never expect such an astounding scenario... Quite a nice memory.. It's really a happy day! Thanks ya!
12th - 14th September 2008 (FRI - SUN)
RECORD BROKEN! Imagine to stay awake actively for 41 hours! Woke up at 7.30am on 12th. As usual, attended PC1432 lecture on 9am and EG1108 tutorial on 10am, and hanged out around the school for few hours before 5pm, nothing special. The real thing
started at 5.30pm! Contrast 2008, the annual 24 hours game design competition, meaning that we have to complete a playable game within 24 hours! Okay, five thirty, had some briefing, some waiting, and waiting again.... Finally it's 7.30pm, the game started! Brainstormed for some idea that stick to environment, and also those weird themes. "Black and White", "Day and Night", "Many and Few", "Dead and Alive", "Fast and Slow", these are some themes that we have to choose, noticed something? Okay, enough brainstorm, the judges arrived and we need to present the idea to them. You would need to pray for that, if they says your idea is completely a stupid idea, then you are out already, as you had wasted two hours to think for an stupid idea! You have to think for another one! Luckily, they didn't say that to me. So lets get the game started! Programming, programming and programming.... Why I am the only programmer in my team huh??? What the.... They are all artist.... Pity....
Okay... 24 hours passed. It's time to submit our "masterpiece". I wondered how I managed to program for 24 hours without sleep.... I think Ying Chieh's psychological support before the start of the miserable 24 hours is the greatest contributor. THANKS! By the way, I really felt my 24 hours are wasted to create such a lousy game.... Don't ask me for the game.... Authorised Personnel Only.
After submitting, a presentation was awaiting ahead. We were required to present to everybody, especially the judges(I participated this competition on their sake, who are them?
Christopher Teksey from EA, Jean-Sebastien Mouret from UbiSoft, Allan Simonsen from Boomzap, Theo Sanders from Razer). Afraid, but still need to present. Thanks again for the encouragement, managed to finish the presentation quite firmly...
Now, the last mission, rush back to Malaysia for the Mid Autumn Festival and also my brother's birthday (also mine ^_^). It's 9.30pm (perhaps?), waiting for bus and mrt to get to the Woodland Checkpoint. And reach home about 11.30pm (perhaps?). And slept at 12.30am.... 41 hours had gone....
