It is mid of the term. Warrrasdsghfsbgfsdggghhhh!

Must study for midterm... regardless.

Another day of winter: To feel time.

*listening to Tell Your World by livetune feat Miku*

Sometimes I wonder why do I have to go through the same routine as everyone else.
I mean... to wake up in the morning.. to eat lunch in the afternoon,... to relax in the living room at night... to sleep at night.

A psychology book that I read says that human biologically live in a 25.1 hours clock.
That means, compared to our sun calendar which has 24 hours per day,... we are wasting 1.1 hour of the extra productivity.


I don't want to live in this planet anymore.

Thoughts - Dependencies.

Irregularity in behavior... how do we come to the conclusion that something is irregular?

What if the irregularities will be something common in the future instead? Then by that time that behavior will no longer be irregular.



So, being regular is actually time dependent where the past is put as reference to compare what is set as current. Here we have a duration of time in which after a specific behavior persist, that behavior will be considered as regular.

Okay cool.

The question.

What is the range of the duration?
1 month?
1 year?
10 years?
Or dependent with something else?

Yeah! I love dependencies! ^^

Oh crap! Bored to death.

Look at these people. Are they that bored? *sarcasm*

Thoughts

I wonder. What is the thing that motivates thinking.

I can for example, turn to a page of my math textbook and think nothing of it.
On other situation, I can turn to that same page, and starts to wonder what does the bunch of text/equations mean.

Well, yeah, I can certainly say that in the second case I put my thought on it as an answer.
However, that is where the problem is...

What is the process before that?
What is there between looking at sentences/equations and thinking about it?

Is there some sort of 'switch' that when turned on, ACTIVATES thinking? If there is, how do I turn on the switch?
In computer analogy..., how do I start writing on the input buffer?

If I know that, I can probably do what people call PAYING ATTENTION more effectively.

Season shift...

Fall to Winter...

Winter to Spring...

I'm amazed just by observing.

I had absorbed the idea of urbanization before, which is how cities emerge over time.

I also understand when technology advances... more equipments and gadgets are able to assist people.

But to make appearance of a place to change, those two are simply slow...

BUT SEASON SHIFT IS DIFFERENT.

Today... everything is green. The next day, everything is white.

No matter my house or your house. No matter the sky-scrapper or shelter for those who can't afford a house..

Not just to the place, but to the people as well. Everyone changes their attire to ensure maximum heat.

No matter they are professionals, or those without job.

No matter they are adult, or just babies.

Today, everything is white. The next day, everything simply change.

No matter if you are blind or deaf, you feel the changes. Indeed a BIG change.

It doesn't take a century for that change to occur. Not even a decade.

It just takes ONE NIGHT for everyone to feel the difference.

...and yet people are not involved in the process.


Yours truly,
Shahronizam.

[p/s: イア～... I was rewatching Clannad After Story when I reached episode 22 where a song that mentions about season change is played in the background; Chiisana Te no Hira. So, I thought myself that somehow what Nagisa-chan was talking also applies to the city I currently live in, hence my post. XD
Here is the link to that scene]

Limiters

It's simply called 'limiters'.

I always have this so called limiters on.

It brought me here.

Do you believe in Charms?(revised)

What I mean by charm here is not an attribute as in "she is charming~". No
It is the charm which refers to words or ojects that is believed to have magic power.(Oxford)

On the other day, I read this one book and went into a scene where a character asking the other character this questions.
"Do you believe in charm?"

...and as expected he answered.
"No, that's ridiculous"

In fact, I've encountered many similar scene as above, in internet fictions, movies, and J-sources. Not necessaryly in the form of words though. Some appear in the form of Talisman. A common storyline will show something like this;
~
Before a hero goes into a life or death battle, the heroine will give him some sort of [object/words] to be hold, or to be kept as sign of good luck.
Then, in the battle, as the hero comes into the intense situation or in the verge of defeat, he is reminded of the [object/words] thoughtfully, have a deep insight on the heroine's trust on him, blablabla,
then he is back with more courage or in lame cases, new power to win the battle
~
This is what we call as plot device.


Now back to my 'craps'.
Erm, sincerely, I prefer to call this a message to my friends, but oh well

I do BELIEVE in charms in term of words. I have actually acknowledged its existence since the beginning of 2005, the year of PMR.

It is a charm that WORKS! You can spit it out anytime, anywhere, and you will see INSTANTANEOUS effect! You don't have to prepare any kind of ritual for it. Heh!

I'll present some of them in the form of common conversations in class. The Charm itself is highlighted in Red.

..............................................................

Case 1:
A: "B, can you help me with this question?" showing his Maths homework to B.
B: "Oh, no! Sorry. I may be good in other class, but please, not this one. I'm bad in solving equations"

or its variation...

A: "What is your mark for Bahasa Malaysia?"
B: "89"
A: "Power!!!"
B: "Nah, I'm not that good. I'm sux in [certain other subject]"

or...

A: "Do you get what the teacher taught just now?"
B: "No!!!! Shit!! Those things are all confusing. I can't understand at all!!"

..............................................................

well.. there are many other similar charms. They are actually easy to be identified. Basically, they are sentences that conclude your uneasy situations.

Therefore... if you think you haven't play too much yet, or miss enough lessons in class, remember these Charms! Like I said, they works INSTANTANEOUSLY!
You'll see your mark drops in the next exam.

However, it can't be denied that there are other type of charms that can't go along with those mentioned above. I call them X-Charms.

These X-Charms could be embedded into above conversations as well. I'll highlight them in Green.

..............................................................

Case 1:
A: "B, can you help me with this question?" showing his Maths homework to B.
B: "Oh, no! Sorry. I may be good in other class, but please, not this one. I'm bad in solving equations. Let's try it first, if can't, we seek for advice."

or its variation...

A: "What is your mark for Bahasa Malaysia?"
B: "89"
A: "Power!!!"
B: "Nah, I'm not that good. I'm sux in [certain other subject]. But I won't let those subjects prevent me from graduating for sure."

or...

A: "Do you get what the teacher taught just now?"
B: "No!!!! Shit!! Those things are all confusing. I can't understand at all!! Can you help me?"

..............................................................

These X-Charms, as oppose to the normal charms, brings the value of humbleness and curiosity of how to resolve the uneasy situation.

If you are not aware of these things in your talks, the effect of the normal charms might be reduced or worse, reversed!!!! Yes, there are also people who only practice the X charms. So please be aware.

*sigh


[p/s1: Today, I suffered so much during the OSSLT test. Not because of my runny nose which also could be blamed in some way. It is because of this Kumikyoku xxxxx☆xxxx keep playing in my ears. OTL I ended up finishing my last sentence of my essay in the first negative 5 seconds. The invigilators on duty even pulled my pen to stop me. LUCKILY, I manage to write everything I wanted to. Ahaha! Dear Miss Invigilator, your attempt to stop me has failed =P]

Digital Broadcast

I'll start with this quote from The Star Online dated today

"KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians will have to buy a special decoder to access free digital TV by 2015 as all Asean countries will stop analog broadcasting by then, says Information Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery"




And I'll end it with another quote from the same page

"More to come"



(p/s: 'Special' decoder? Does that suppose to mean... it is super expensive? super quality? super encrypted? or merely to differentiate it from Astro decoder - -)
(p/s: Just watched Clannad After Story ep 16... Nagisa dont die...sobs)
(p/s: IELTS next week! Yay!)

For those who can't see, the flash version which includes guides to see it can be found here.
Yes, you can create it too of course =D.

(p/s: Today we have finished our first final exam paper; English! 3 more to go...)
(p/s2: About the Eng3U exam... I forwarded all my comments to my roommate's post in his blog. =D)

Get the message?

I have a lot of thing that I believe.
Some are abstract, and some are specific with proof.
Some are fun, and some are not.

But, there are things that make you feel great to know them.
However, you do not believe in them.
Isn't it great to just believe it then?

If there is fun in believing, then believe it.

And it is okay because after that, it rests on the word FUN.

If it is fun to NOT BELIEVE what you have believed so far, then it is fine.

(p/s: A bit from Haruhism =D. But still, my physics understanding is more solid I believe. =D)

Muohoho! so fast??

The time now is... 5.20am... Friday =D. Woken up by Konata Izumi's Chala-Head-Chala, I went to the VALS site as pre-requisite for my BOH4M assignment. Since it has finished, that's y i create this post =D

I just realized something about how wireless networking works. Well, I totally mean about the wifi thingy. Erm.. apparently, I'll always lost my connection to the modem during the day, especially when alot of other lappies are also connected to it.
If I read the manual of my modem correctly(the one I have back home), it says, connections may be interupted by the signal from other computer. I looks more like, if there are other wifi devices around, there could be more interuptions. So, that might explain why during ping to www.google.com, 1 out of 4 packet that my lappy sent had lost.

Interestingly, the condition is totally different at night. I wonder if this is due to the cold air?
..
...
Nah, not caused by air I think. If air is included, in fact, the wave should be slower. Somemore, we are using a G-type modem, not the n-type, so the amplitude of the modem signal wont last that far aniway. =D

Continue... after midnight, I am able to get the signal perfectly complete. The speed is marvelous =D Yummy. The avg. rate of transfer I have so far at night is 167 kbps. I wonder what package did they gave us ==.

Lets do a calculation... =D

167 Kilobytes/s x 8 = 1336 Kilobits/s ~ 2Mbps package?
..
...
Nothing much to sae... I'll just be grateful =D

And with that, from now on, I will always wake up early, so that the modem's signal wont be wasted =D. Well, Hopefully no one put on a mid-night torrent download.

(p/s: THe whole next week is holidae!!! Kucheng, here I come =D)
(p/s: Konata Izumi is a character from the anime Lucky Star, voiced by Aya Hirano. Aya is the person who also voiced Haruhi in TMoSH, in case you dont care =D)

Hrmm... Test Test Test

Readying for test... cant write too much, scare of losing my concentration on my subject, so I'll just leave a trace for today's post XD
