Open & Honest Communication

Please people, no more backbiting or back-stabbing. If you hate it, just say it out loud. Do not tell to others.

This is a reminder to others and also to me myself. Nobody is perfect.

Engitex '09

To be honest, this year Engineering technology Exihibition (EngiTex) was a little bit boring. Sorry if anyone get offended by my comment but this is the truth. Maybe because of the budget limits, the managements. Oh, I don't know.

My roomate was devastated because he is about to enter the Exporace (not a typo, mmg EXPOrace) before it was canceled for the reason of not enough participants to make it as a race. Another friend of mine said that up till last night (Friday, the night before the race), only 4 groups were registered for the race. Hmm... What happen? Last year, there were about twenty groups that joind the race. My group (with Fiza Hanif) was one of it. Hmm, lack of publicity I guess?

About the PC Fair, oh wait, actually there is no PC Fair this year. So sad.. My roomate (read his post about PC Fair here) and I was very excited to go to the PC FAIR (or what they called as DigiTex Fair this year), and unfortunately, it was not there. The so-called DigiTex Fair was just consist of 4 to 5 booths (see pictures below) that they just place at the CAC's pantry, near to the place where the LAN Party was held. 4 to 5 booths only? It was not even a "fair".

However, there are also some positive aspects that I found throughout the Exhibition was held. First of all, during Autogala, there were some Suksis reprentative that control the entrance of the outsiders. The outsiders without proper dress will not be able to enter the spectacle. The committee even place some banners about the dress code. Bagus2. This year, they were more sensitive in term of Islamic aspects.

In addition, this year, the EngiTex's committee had organized a Photography Workshop. Something different compared to previous year punya EngiTex.

Hmm, whatever it is, there are still some room for improvement. Yg baik jadikan tauladan, yg buruk jadikan sempadan. Yg tak cukup, tambah lagi bagi cukup in the future.

Dah ar. Malas nak merepek panjang2.

NO TASTING or NO TESTING

Chazzie Minho said,

I went to Jusco to buy marshmallow. it's written there "NO TASTING". the next day, went to Giant, to buy the same thing, but this time it's written there "NO TESTING".. hmm..which one is right??

Anyone got an answer?

To me, I think that either one can be used, right?

Anyway,lets try to translate them in Bahasa Melayu.

• NO TASTING - Dilarang Merasa
• NO TESTING - Dilarang Mencuba

From the translation, I think that 'NO TASTING' is suitable for food and 'NO TESTING' is suitable for other kot. Rasanyer la. This is just my opinion.

My final sem is about to finish. Got one to two month left.

Hmm, am I really gonna miss IIUM? Ntah ler.

Because of all the hard time that my fyp is giving me, I really wanna grad as soon as possible but at the same time, I am actually feel really hard to leave the campus because there are also some memorable things that I don't want to forget. For example, Caklempong. I really love this club. I love to be a part of IIUM Caklempong Musical Group. Really gonna miss playing caklempong in the future. Tapi xper, I already told them that if they don't have enough people to play for a show, I will be happy to join them, Lucky for me since my home is not so far from IIUM.



K ar. I have to write 8 more posts to fulfill this blog's corum for month of Febraury.

P/s -

Plural for "stuff" is also "stuff". I had corrected my tag line for my other blog (now become: aAziZ n tHe HOT sTuff). Thanks to weewee and teyha!

Staff or Staffs?

There is no such word as staffs ( staff with an 's'. Huh? Sound weird. Hahaha! ).

'Staff' can be used for both singular and plural. Full stop.

I'm Still Not In The Mood...

It's already 3.59 am. I just woke up half and hour ago. I plan to do my fyp this morning but still not in the mood to do it.

Ya Allah, aku memohon kepada Mu, berilah aku interest untuk buat project nih.

I know my project is not that difficult to do but it needs a lot of understanding. That is my problem. I don't really understand what should I do for my project. I feel guilty to Izzah and Amir since I kinda dragged them to do the same project like me. Hua! Sori korg. Korg msti menyesal. Tapi Izzah kata,

"nak menyesal pon xguna. Dah nak abes sem dah pon".

Sometimes I feel like, can I just submit the project although it is not complete? I don't care if I will get "C" or whatever as long as I can pass the course. But it does not work that way. We must fulfill our project's objectives (kata Amirizal). Adoila~

Hmm, below are the pictures of a part of what I did for my project:

Project title: Computer Aided Design of Endoglucanase from Melanocarpus albomyces for Textile Application

The sequence of the enzyme, endoglucanase

This is suppose to be the active site.

The ligand or the substrate: Cellobiose

The docking score. The docking score should be as lowest as possible.

Structure of the enzyme with the ligand (in pink)

K ar. Please pray for me, to do the project with hapiness. Xder feeling2 down yah.

Ta!
