MiZiSat 10: From Computing to Computer Engineering

Woke up quite late in the morning as I slept quite late to play some computer games. I skipped breakfast today as I did not have any appetite to eat.

While on MSN, my cousin Serena asked me some questions about her Grade 5 Music Theory. Well, I tried to helped her as much as possible, except for those questions about score-reading. She also told me that transposing is difficult, which I do not find so actually and do not know how transposing could be so difficult. Well, I've got the full score for transposing for my Grade 5 Theory taken in 1998. I supposed she could not really visualise...

After that, HJ asked me to join PSQ and Andrew for a movie xXx 2 in the afternoon, I agreed to go with them.

In the afternoon, I skipped lunch as I was too lazy to eat, so I just went out directly to meet them without having my lunch at Orchard MRT station.

Well, after meeting HJ at Orchard, PSQ message HJ to wait at Lido Cineplex and he bought the tickets there alrerady as well. As HJ and I didn't really tell PSQ that I would be coming, HJ then called PSQ to check how many tickets he had bought. As he had only bought 3, HJ then asked him to buy another one for me. Well, luckily there wasn't much people watching the movie at that time, there was a ticket available for the seat just beside those seats where PSQ had bought.

Before going in to the movie, HJ, PSQ and Andrew bought some food and drinks from fast food restaurants into the theatre. I then bought a medium popcorn combo for myself. It was quite large actually, but I could finish them myself as I had not had my breakfast and lunch. Well, I can tell you that when I am going to watch movie, I will usually skip my meals and had my popcorn combo as a substitute as my meal instead. Therefore, I can easily finish the large popcorn and the drink easily.

Well, the movie was somewhat ok to me, about a person doing some special operational stuff. Somewhere in the middle of the show, I fell asleep as I did not sleep much the last night (but still managed to wake up and continue watching the rest of the show).


Fell asleep for a moment while watching the movie. Managed to wake up to finish the movie.

After the movie, we went to N.Y.D.C. to eat. Well, PSQ and HJ ordered Destiny's Child Oven-baked specialties, while Andrew and I ordered the Three Amigos Oven-baked specialties. The interesting part is that PSQ and Andrew ordered the ziti-pasta one, while HJ and I ordered the rice one. Ok, so there were certain similarities and differences there (don't really know if I should consider those 4 as different dishes). After that, we ordered a mudpie to be shared among ourselves. I decided to use my UOB Visa Mini Debit to foot the bill for them first,as I could earn my UNI$ from that, and also by using that card, I got a $5 discount voucher as well (that is to be used with UOB credit/debit card).


Used my UOB Visa Mini so that I can earn more UNI$.

After that, we went to Borders to look at some of the books. As usual, I went to the Classical CD sections and listen to some of the samples there. Well, I bought 2 set of CDs from there, Essential Baroque and Chopin (1810 - 1849) etudes. Andrew bought a collections of Romantic Period Classical Piano pieces played by Vladimir Horowitz (1903 - 1989). After that, we went home by ourselves.


Whenever I go to Borders Classical CD section, I will always listen to the samples of the CDs there.

Ok, I recieved a letter from NUS today. It is about the letter of admission to the NUS AY 2006. Well, I am being accepted by NUS to do the Computer Engineering (School of Computing) course. I feel really happy and excited about that as that is the course that I intend to do (it could be either for the Faculty of Engineering one for the School of Computing, it doesn't really matter much to me anyway). Thought that I am only restricted to Computing only as I had failed my General Paper (with a grade of D7). Anyway, it's a switched from Computing to Computer Engineering under the same faculty/school (School of Computing). Ok, I can only start to reply from 3 May 2005, so I may need another week to reply the offer.


Being accepted by NUS to do Computer Engineering (School of Computing). YAY!!!!!!
