Rambling..

I'm on my holiday right now. But I don't do anything much. It's the same thing every single day; being lazy, sleeping, watching movies, watching football matches, eating, hanging out with my family + cousins + friends, checking my emails, helping my mom, worrying and thinking before I fall asleep, and yada yada yada.. It's boring. Haha. But I don't hate it, not even for a single day. =)

I wanted to go have fun at any Island but no ones seems eager to go with me. I wish my parents would let me go travel alone. That would be perfect.

But nah, the idea of letting their only daughter to travel alone is scary enough for them. I really wanna go travel alone, not just in Malaysia, but any other countries. But they won't let me go travel alone, not even in any Island in here or nearest country like Indonesia, Australia, Japan etc.

Sooner or later, I'm gonna go travel alone, at least once in my life. I think if I'm working, my parents would let me do so. Hopefully. ;)

This holiday I have this urge to go swimming but nah, I don't like a swimming pool that's way too open or maybe having too many crowd. I love going to a rooftop swimming pool but it's hard to find one. I found it once and trust me it's so lovely. How I wish I have a swimming pool in my house so that whenever I'm in trouble, I could jump in the pool and try to clear my mind.

Besides, I've been thinking about everything lately. I don't know. My result, my internship, my future, my life and just everything. I'm gonna do my internship next year and yet to have any offer. We were allowed to apply for 5 companies first and out of 5, I only applied to 3. Since 2 of the companies I've applied already moved, my documents were sent back to me. I'm not eager to find their new address. Whatever. I think I have to apply to another 2 companies later. Later..

Then I've been thinking about my result as well since you know 2 of my exams were not that good. One of them is my killer subject. That's what I think. Blergh..

How I wish I have genius mind that I will always have the good results without doing anything much. You know, there are those people who are gifted. They don't even have to study hard but they will always get a good result no matter what. That's their gift. They're so lucky. But I do believe everyone has their own gift. Some people excel in maths, some in science, some in music, cooking and the list goes on and on. ;) and for one to be able to succeed in their life, one still have to go through a mountain of hardship.

Simple IQ test

There is a mute who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one’s teeth, he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.

Now, if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?

Well you have to think about it..then if you have the answer, check the comment section and compare it to the real answer..

Did you get it right?? hehe

Beautiful Quotes

These are few of the beautiful quotes that I like. =)

Tastekid

Here's a cool site where you can actually find the similar music, movies or even books.

I don't know about you guys, but I always have this urge to find something new. I mean like new movies, new music, new bands so Google has always been my best friend. But recently, I've found this Tastekid, so it's kinda awesome to find something similar with what you like right?

This site might be old enough but you've gotta excuse me for being excited since I just found out this one. Haha xD

here's the snapshot:

I wrote The Notebook and there are few lists of the similar movies: A Walk To Remember, P.S. I Love You, 50 First Dates and etc.

But hey this is just for fun, don't rely much on it since I know sometimes she'll give you different result that's not even similar to what you've been trying to find. =)

LED Matrix for Halloween

I'm excited when I read this post in Hack A Day website, 70 LED matrix in a Jack-o-lantern style. Well it's not because of Halloween's coming. I don't celebrate Halloween. Ngeh.

But because we had to do the exact same thing for our project sans the pumpkin of course. We have already submitted and presented the project. It was a project of 2 persons under the Digital System Design and Microprocessor Based System Subjects.

Here's how Hack A Day futuristic pumpkin look like displaying Happy Halloween in matrix sytle:

Well if you want to see more or learn more, there's a tutorial at the site and video as well.

http://hackaday.com/2010/10/26/70-led-matrix-in-a-jack-o-lantern/

Who knows you might wanna do it for this coming Halloween. ;)

Here's what our project look like:

Well I don't have video of this one. Please note that we didn't purposely choose the LEDs in different color. We only used what were given to us. ;) We have to display our name and matric number.

See my name's there, Far..okay, it's Farah actually.

But you can't display it as a whole since that's only 6x12 LED matrix.

But if you put it in a marquee style, you can totally see it.

In HackADay site, they have used microcontroller to write the code. We only used Microp software, Easy68K. The coding is super long, so I'm not gonna put it in here. We need to use decoder as well, so we need to use one decoder of 3x8 74LS138 for the rows of 6 and 2 decoder of 3x8 74LS138 for the columns of 12.

P/s: Maybe it's a good idea to put our project in something like pumpkin. ;) It looks cute anyway!

Piano Stairs

Piano Stairs from Ibrahim Nergiz on Vimeo.

They called it 'The Fun Theory'.
Well if you ask me, I would definitely take this stairs everyday if they make it like this one.
I mean it looks cool and so much fun, I don't mind to try it..

What's the point of having technology if you don't want to use it right?
Escalators and elevators always beat stairs anyway.
But if they were to make stairs sound like piano, people will have the curiosity to try it once and even play with it just like in the video.
It will increase the numbers of people who will use stairs instead of elevator and escalator. ;)

Besides, whenever I take public transports like LRT, I always opt to use stairs instead of escalator or elevator. I don't know why but I love stairs.
But please note I don't take stairs to go to my daily classes. My classes are all at level 3 or level 4. I only take it if I'm super late, no time to wait for the elevator. ^-^


P/s: I'd love to try this piano stairs for fun, you know how much I love piano. ;)
