a breather..
the phone line is restored. about time!
there's this chinese lecturer..who teaches us Electromagnetic Interference...boy..he almost killed me..
'Z' (zack not zee)...he pronounces it as 'jack' (many chinese mispronounce z as j..eg..zone = jone, zip = jip..etc etc) and we were studying a certain mathematical formula which has the variable 'Zs ' (Z with subscript s)
he freakin pronounced it as 'JACKASS' throughout the entire lecture...."if u want a smaller jackass..u need to change it into.." , "to get a larger jackass, take the smaller jackass and..." , interchange the jackass with..." , "what do u get when u hav jackass over jackass?..."
just when u thought u've heard it all.
oh well.
and last nite i finally solved some major..i mean like MAJOR problems in my project. i think i'm gonna sleep well tonite.
