Geology Field Trip

BEng8ers

Please be informed that our geology field trip is on Monday 09th November 2009. Everybody has to attend before 0745hrs for cavity search prior to boarding the 'appropriate bus' which will depart at approximately 0800hrs. Anybody who could not make it in time, the institute's transport will be provided and you have to report to Mr Pinky with all sorts of your lame excuses.

Furthermore, refreshments will be provided for the trip so you dont have to bring your mom's nasi lemak in a 'ringkat' or tupperware for that matter. No confirmation on what type of food you will be having but rumours are saying that each one of you will get a box of 'Tora' or 'Dindang'.

Lastly, please wear proper clothing for the trip because you might get dirty and since everybody will be observing, feeling, touching and tasting all sorts of geological stuffs, please bring your own gloves, goggles and not forgetting the rayden's hat for sun bathing for quite some time on that day. It is also advisable to bring cameras to take all the important pictures for your reports.

That's all for now!

Geology & Hydraulics

Hello BEngers!

Just to inform you all that our Geology trip to Sandakan, Sipitang & Tanjung Rambutan is postponed till further notice. The transport to these destinations are not available at the moment because the institute was expecting a much bigger transport with higher load capacity. Studies has shown a rise intake of 'chocolate last semester' and 'nasi bro' over the past few semesters, in which the institute speculated that the transportation booked for the trip was not appropriate. With that we just gonna continue with lecture.

Geology lecture for Monday, 2nd November 2009 will be from 1020hrs till lunchtime only. There will be no Hydraulics lecture but if you still insist to come for lecture, you have to bring your own tables and chairs to sir Bam's office. Theres no indication on how many people can fit into his office but you'll have to manage yourself.

Since the afternoon is free, it is wise to practice on your meeting thingy because with the previous 'cawieeeness' of DC, we might as well work on it thoroughly to topup the lost precious marks from the previous cawieee task.

Anyway, thats all for now guys.

(Raya thingy will be updated soon, sorry for any inconveniences)

Re: Selamat Hari Raya Pt.1

Selamat Hari Raya again BEngers!

We are still in the month of Syawal and hari raya is still in the air, well bits and pieces of it. Some hari raya enthusiast might be still celebrating to the max with open house serving wide range of food from eastern to western, malay to indian, indian to chinese, chinese to japanese, japanese to arabic, and it goes on and on till finally stopping at 'nasi katok bro' (whhaaaattt...).

Cakes and biscuits have become more colourful than they were used to, not forgetting the ever-so-famous 'kueh moors' and 'tapak kudas'. The BEng management recently were surprised by the latter which have evolved to 'tapak gajahs'. Yes, wierd huh... But yeah, they do exist. Peanut butter are used in place of the normal nutella, but the design remains the same. Rumours are saying that a new type from the tapak family will be out next year named 'Tapak Kelindahau'. The savoury part is mashed kembayau with zest of belachan tamu kianggeh. You need to order this amazing mouth watering special at least a month before puasa for the blessings of kelindahaus before the ramadhan quarantine.

Anyway, the BEngers were invited to Nyeh's open house on the 2nd week of syawal after the holiday. Most of the group came, along with few seniors that were due to fly to Belfast. Everybody had fun with all sorts of acrobatic photo shoot poses. Thank you Nyeh, the food was nice. If the parents weren't around, the group pretty sure would have gone for second or third rounds.

Here are some of the pictures taken....

Silakan masuk

That's all for now guys, till next post... BYE!

Selamat Hari Raya

BEngers!

Selamat Hari Raya! Thousand apologies to everybody for not updating much sooner. Lots of stuffs goin around since the last post but the management were unable to update because of too much work to do with little time to finish, thanks again to the wonderful people in the institute.

How was your raya BEngers? Did you guys still get the green packets? For those who got lots, you need to get rid of those diapers man, its about time. You have an option not to take it if you think you are big enough to get em'. Ang pow kalllleeeee..... And what about fasting during ramadhan, forget the ladies, did the guys fasted the whole month? Or did some of you had pms also so you did not get to fast on some days? If that was the case, you need to get to your thingies checked.

Anyway, to patch things up from the last post;-

# The Structures test was indeed quite a difficult one, many had claimed had a hard time to answer the first question since the second one was a bit similar to the tutorial question but with a slight twist. DM was also unhappy with the few papers he had marked so for the next test, he will include torsion again with buckling. And yes, you need to work your ass again real hard this time or you are bound to LJ.

# The BEngers also had series of sungkai-out planning which some did not turned out well. The underlying causes were under investigation and for some reasons, it had come to a point that there was no point of investigating the causes because in the end, the conclusion will be the same ol lame thing. But within the last few days before the hearing of promiscuous mama moon, some of the BEngers finally had managed to sungkai-out despite the allegations of misunderstanding and misinformation. We had a great time, the food was nice and thanks to Dean for the treat, we all appreciated it.

And thats pretty much the missing part of the BEngers activities because much of the other part is irrelevant and is best forgotten in this festive season. The BEng8 management also would like to take this opportunity to beg forgiveness from all of you for everything that had said and done. Some perhaps offended by the blog and might caused pain to others.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI. MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN.

Till next time, bye!

(Raya stuff will be out soon on the next post)

Re: Reminder

Bengers!

Good news guys!

The Structures 2 test is postponed to saturday @ 1030hrs and the Design 2 test will be some time next week. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! Thank god!

Bad news!

You still have to work your ass off for the test. If anybody need help with their studies, LJ Tuition school is offering tuition class for pre-school starting next week saturday @ 1845hrs, the same day as the sighting of Syawal moon. The main activities for the tuition will be drawing and colouring, singing and dancing with the teachers and reading. Please contact the main office for more information on additional activities.

It was also reported that the Syawal moon is not ready to be delivered on saturday. Speculations were made by some unreliable sources that the father of the moon is yet to be identified and the promiscuous life of the mother is still under investigations. Some Hari Raya enthusiasts are pretty sure that the baby moon will be out by saturday or otherwise the mama moon might be induced or otherwise, c-sectioned on sunday for further investigations on the baby.

Anyway, good luck with your tests and holiday is coming soon yaay...

Bye!

RAMADHAN

Salam BEngers!

Ramadhan is finally here guys and its fasting time. The fasting during Ramadhan is regarded as a method of self purification. It is a time for spiritual contemplation, test your patience and to contain the nafsu b***. (censored to minimized fasting pahala depletion)

So guys, no more time-consuming-where-to-eat decision to make at lunchtime and the good thing is that you can save your lunch money to buy the must-have books which are now being distributed at the Phase 1 Building conference room. Some people still thinking of buying them and some perhaps still not sure of the importance of having such books. Anyway, it is noted that it is compulsory to have them and they are on first come first serve basis.

Furthermore, there will be a slight change on our academic timetable during this holy month. Each period is 10 minutes short so everthing will be finished at 1450hrs (a bit odd don't you think).

Last but not least, the BEng8 management would like to wish everybody Happy Fasting and beg forgiveness for any mistakes, inconvenience and to those who perhaps hurt along the way.

That's all for now, bye!
