4th Semester Results.

Hi everyone.
I think you guys are sick of me saying i'm sorry right. But still you guys do deserve an apology. I did not kept my words. Therefore i'm very sorry. I dont know why, its so hard to find the inspiration to write anything. Maybe because i have so little thing going on in my life it become hard to write.
Anyway lets continue with today topic which is my 4th semester result. As everyone know, i'm currently a student of Bachelor of Science (Physics) at UiTM Perlis. So last January i've finish my 4th semester as a student there. Did my finals and everything. So, last Valentine's day, UiTM release the result of the finals for all their students. Alhamdulillah, it was a positive result for me. How positive? 3.73 positive. Yeah, My GPA for the semester was 3.73. It's a Dean's list result and i'm very grateful for that. The results was 2 A, 4A- and a B+. I'm very grateful but...
I know it is a very good result but i was kinda hoping for a higher result last semester. It was my 2013 new year's resolution to get a 4.0 GPA in any semester last year. Unfortunately, the first sem of last year i can only muster up a 3.68 and last sem, as you guys well know, 3.73. It kind of a downer since i can't achieve any of my new year's resolution. But still i'm grateful. Another reason why i was hoping for higher is because i'm right now in a healthy competition with a Biology student. Unfortunately this sem i lose again. He got a 3.93. I know you might think it is like comparing apple and oranges by having a competition with a bio student. But its fun to have this competition. Haha.
Anyway, my 4th semester is in the past now. There's no need to cry over spilt milk right. Just keep my head up try harder next sem to achieve my goal to at least get a 4.0 GPA in one of my remaining two semester here in UiTM Perlis.
P/s: for my friends reading this, yes we can. Yes we can reach the sky. All we need is faith and a lot of effort. Never stop believing and never stop trying. Again,
YES WE CAN GUYS!!!!!
See you guys again next time.
My result slip of last semester. Arabic Language was supposed to be a free win but i messed up. Also, financial management and waves and optic. But i've tried my best. What can i do.

Nasi Goreng Tomyam (2/1/2014)

Hello everybody. 
I almost forgot to write here today. It is only the 2nd day and i've already forget to write things here. But dont worry. Now i here and i want to write. 

Today, not many things happen to me that i can teach you guys. I'm in my finals week in UiTM Perlis, so not much running around learning new stuffs. So how about i talk about the things i need to learn for tomorrow. Wait, i forgot to say that tomorrow (3/1/2014) i have an exam. Nondestructive Test (NDT)

So NDT is a simple yet a complex course if i need to put it simply. As you might know, anything that got design and make need to be inspected. But the inspection need to be done nondestructively, because somebody going to get mad if the component were destroyed during inspections. Mainly, we need to learn about 5 main NDT techniques which are Liquid Penetrant inspection (LPI), Magnetic Particle inspection(MPI), Radiography, Eddy Current testing and Ultrasound. I dont want to go into details but i can put into one sentence summary on all the tests.

1) LPI- It uses the concept of capillary action of liquid where the penetrant dwells into surface cracks to show where cracks are. 

2) MPI- it uses the concept of magnetic fields, by using ferrous dust on a ferromagnetic material to check cracks by magnetizing the specimen. 

3) Radiography- to put it very simple, it is X-ray inspection. 

4)Eddy Current Testing- it uses the concept of induced magnetic field and induced electric field. (I want to say more but i'm limited to one sentence)

5) Ultrasonic Inspection - basically the things that doctor do to pregnant woman to check for fetus growth only being done to solid materials to check for cracks inside the specimen. 

So that should give you a general idea on what  my final exam tomorrow will be about. Honestly, it looks simple enough because it is just applied physics. But it is so general i'm afraid they might get into details on the concept of each testing which as big as physics can get. So anyway, wish me luck. Going to need it. 

P/s: I cook today, Tom Yam fried rice with crackers and fried chicken. Maybe tomorrow i can talk about food.
