Maybe it wasn&#8217;t &#8220;hard&#8221;, though there was a lot of work&#8230; My group ended up pulling 2 all-nighters for the real-time operating systems not to mention the countless hours we spent in the lab. Anyways I&#8217;m glad that 3A is over.</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t get much of a break and now I&#8217;m already in San Jose, CA starting my 5th work term at Nvidia. Hopefully I can learn lots and find out what I really wanna do when I graduate.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[3A begins with a crazy week (no thanks to the workterm report).]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My work term ended and the 3A term began a week ago, and it has been pretty darn busy so far. Classes from 8:30 am to 10 pm two days straight. And now I have to finish my work term report, which I&#8217;m kinda stressed over.</p>
<p>Gotta stop procrastinating and start working. Hopefully, I can relax a bit after, but then interviews are coming up, as well as the crazy operating systems labs.</p>
<p>I was randomly browsing deviantart some time ago, and I found an awesome artist. I really like her sketches and colouring with markers. I hope I can get some copic markers and make some drawings myself when I have time <img src='http://www.gstrike.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a link to her page: <a href="http://cartoongirl7.deviantart.com/" target="_blank">http://cartoongirl7.deviantart.com/</a></p>
<p>One of my favourite drawing of hers: <a href="http://cartoongirl7.deviantart.com/art/A-Coffee-Love-144658767" target="_blank">http://cartoongirl7.deviantart.com/art/A-Coffee-Love-144658767</a></p>
<p>And of course, I&#8217;ve been playing a few games, namely The 3rd Birthday (picture above), and Tactics Ogre for PSP.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished the 2A term in uni and I finally had time to post again! Well, technically, I always had time but I finally "felt" like blogging again ;)]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally&#8230; another post after nearly 2 months! There&#8217;s so much that happened in 2A that I&#8217;m not sure I can fit all of them on this page lol&#8230;</p>
<p>The midterm was a disaster&#8230; and that&#8217;s probably why I stopped posting after that. But fortunately, the finals went better (thank you morning exams). And I also think it&#8217;s thanks to Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 as well  <img src='http://www.gstrike.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':-P' class='wp-smiley' />   . In fact, my friend and I played a combined total of around 80 hours of CoD during the 2 weeks of exam. I&#8217;d say it was a good way of relieving stress.</p>
<p>Last term, I watched I think 4 dramas, but some I still haven&#8217;t finished or will not ever finish. I watched:</p>
<ul>
<li>Autumn Concerto (watched 4 or 5/20, will not continue watching)</li>
<li>Mei Ren Xin Ji (watched like 28/40 all during exams)</li>
<li>Buzzer Beat</li>
<li>JIN (watched 4/11)</li>
</ul>
<p>I don&#8217;t really wanna post and spoilers of why I stopped watching Autumn Concerto, but let&#8217;s just say I got tired of plot cliches&#8230; The other 3 were pretty good imo.</p>
<p>Now my workterm starts next Monday, and I wonder what I&#8217;ll be doing for the next four months&#8230;</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I suddenly became curious of my personality type and after doing a quick test, I found out that its ISTP (and it used to be ISTJ!)]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think I hold the record in my class for submitting assignments closest to the due date. I just submitted an assignment 5 minutes before it was due at midnight (I&#8217;ve done this probably TOO many times), but nothing feels better when you hit that submit button at the end.</p>
<p>Back to the topic of personality test, I had an interesting talk with my friend about personalities, specifically the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. He&#8217;s probably the only friend I know that would talk about these psychological stuff all day long, and sometimes I really enjoy talking with him until his ideas get too crazy and unconventional (at least to my standards). For anyone that don&#8217;t know, Myer-Briggs Type Indicator is an assessment to test someone&#8217;s personality, and it&#8217;s extremely accurate unlike lame horoscopes. Yes, even fortune cookies are more accurate than horoscopes.</p>
<p>I was suddenly curious one day about my personality type because one of my professors suddenly raised up the fact that he was INTP. Not to my surprise, not many people even knew what that meant. But I did. At first, I thought I was INTP as well, but I wasn&#8217;t sure so I decided to ask my friend. It ended up that I was suppose to be ISTJ (the supporter). I looked through my emails for the personality test I&#8217;ve done a long time ago, and it said that I was INTP. Since I was confused, I just retook the test and the results are on the image at the top.</p>
<p>I was pretty shocked when I saw my results. Extreme I, N, and T, and kind of midway between J and P. I&#8217;m not too surprised with the results though.<br />
83% I &#8211; No wonder I&#8217;m blogging to myself right now and that I prefer to stay at my rez 99% of the time instead of hanging out with whomever.<br />
Now, I think I was ISTJ before too, so why did I somehow change from J to P?</p>
<p>After comparing the characteristics of J and P, I came to the conclusion that I finally realized that I&#8217;m not as organized as I thought I was before. And notice the &#8220;procrastinate&#8221; under P, that&#8217;s definitely me. But there are also characteristics of J that I feel I&#8217;m more of such as &#8220;likes closure&#8221;. Even though I &#8220;go with the flow&#8221; in reality, I would really prefer to plan things out and finish my tasks asap.</p>
<p>For anyone that&#8217;s also interested in this test, take it at http://www.mypersonality.info. I think it&#8217;s a good way for anyone to learn more about themselves and other people.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I'm tired of procrastinating. Played 6 hours of Granado Espada and 5 hours of MW2 over the weekends when I have two assignments due the next 2 days. FML.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I thought I was going to be productive last weekend. As usual, nothing goes according to my plan in terms of finishing assignments.</p>
<p>On Saturday, I spent around 6 hours playing Granado Espada. My clannies and I were doing the Secret Tower dungeon. We went for two runs, and the outcome was okay being the first time we ever raided together. Lag and disconnects pretty much killed us both times &#8211; first run, the tank d/ced (gg lol), and during the second run, we were hit by the infamous ST lag and eventually everyone got d/ced. Awesome times <img src='http://www.gstrike.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<a href='http://www.gstrike.com/blog/procrastination-kills/attachment/capture_00016/' title='capture_00016'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://www.gstrike.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/capture_00016-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="capture_00016" title="capture_00016" /></a>
<a href='http://www.gstrike.com/blog/procrastination-kills/attachment/capture_00017/' title='capture_00017'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://www.gstrike.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/capture_00017-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="capture_00017" title="capture_00017" /></a>
<a href='http://www.gstrike.com/blog/procrastination-kills/attachment/capture_00018/' title='capture_00018'><img width="150" height="150" src="http://www.gstrike.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/capture_00018-150x150.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail" alt="capture_00018" title="capture_00018" /></a>

<p>Then on Sunday, I played Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for 5 hours straight. I think everyone that joins the map Rust wouldn&#8217;t really want to stop playing cause of the constant action. I ended up with around 700 kills and 500 deaths. Before I knew it, it was Sunday midnight and I had an assignment due the next day. At that moment, I decided to start a jdrama &#8211; Buzzer Beat! I actually finished it just now, and overall I thought it was amazing.</p>
<p>One word (or three actually) &#8211; F.M.L.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[It's been around a year and a half since my personal website has been down, and I finally decided to overcome my laziness and remake it. :)]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I finally decided to remake my webpage again. Why? I guess so that in 10 or 20 years from now, I can look back into my blog entries and say &#8220;Wow, I never knew I did so many stupid things&#8221; or &#8220;So this is what I did that day!&#8221;. I guess this is a way of keeping my memories (I have really bad memory), sort of like a diary. Plus, I now have a way to keep saying how bored I am and to vent out my anger.</p>
