Think too tired recently, today woke up at 3 pm x.x

After slacking for sometime, 5 pm met up with Muffin at JCube
At first, bought two donuts cause I didn't eat anything for whole day

Muffin got hungry when walking halfway, so we just went to KFC
Mac Donald totally no seats for us x.x
Students hogging the table just to study -_-

Went to get a haircut, cut + wash only $10
At clementi ~.~
Price was worth it, since near her house, simply just go

After sending her back to Clementi,  I went back to Yishun's arcade to play Maximum Tune
Played till 10 pm

Saturday, 28th July 2012

Last night wanted to chiong my Mercedes until level 70, but I was too tired and stopped at level 64 x.x

Went to sleep at 10+ pm, today woke at 8+ am to go my uncle's house
He live damn near to Muffin, like 3 blocks away lol

Went to eat a restaurant with Muffin at Jurong East, Kung Fu paradise
I got scammed by their burger =.=
Her beef noodles seems decent

After that, went to IMAX to watch The Dark Knight Rises
The story was nice, I liked the Batman series
All the movies had great storyline and epic BGM to bring the mood

Went to relative's wedding at around 7 pm+
Ate until 11 pm+ lol
Damn full x.x

When reached home, I was determined to train Mercedes until level 70
Lucky Ludibrium PQ gives alot of exp, leveled to 69 with just PQ from level 64
Rest of the % simply went Mulung Dojo
Mercedes finally level 70, can bestow link skill to my Demon Slayer
After testing out my demon slayer, I find that the link skill of bonus exp 10% actually grants alot. Especially for bossing like anego or samurai
Kinda lost of where to train though, not much decent monsters for me to grind on x.x

Today communication practice de problem statement is that "I" manage fashion store selling clothes and accessories to both men and women. Now got more male shoppers liao, need find out how to attract them to the store x.x

Abit mindfu3ked by the Problem Statement

The worksheet also kinda difficult to do

How to Summarise & Learn to Summarise

Summarise the following extract from the book Alice in Wonderland in 50 words or less.

Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister
on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had
peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no
pictures or conversations in it, `and what is the use of a book,'
thought Alice `without pictures or conversation?'

So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could,
for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether
the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble
of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White
Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

There was nothing so VERY remarkable in that; nor did Alice
think it so VERY much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to
itself, `Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!' (when she thought
it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have
wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural);
but when the Rabbit actually TOOK A WATCH OUT OF ITS WAISTCOAT-
POCKET, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to
her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never
before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to
take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the
field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop
down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge.

[Lewis Carroll.  Alice in Wonderland, Millenium Fulcrum Edition 3.0, http://www.literaturecollection.com/a/carroll/alice/1/, retrieved on 3 July 2012.]

My version:

Alice very sian

Nothing to do

Book so boring

Think by herself, very sleepy

Lazy pluck flowers

A white rabbit come

Rabbit talk, Alice surprised

Rabbit see time, rabbit run

Rabbit run, Alice chase

Things learnt today (For Summary):

Looking at the title
Purpose of reading
Dissect the paragraphs
Analyze questions
Distinguishing the facts from opinions
Text importance
Pick out the important points
Arranging the points
Making connections
Making inferences
Synthesize

Today's programming lesson was kinda tough as many functions are needed to create maths formula. Also need to import modules in as the formulas

Some people had troubles with import, maybe some computers can't do it or settings got problem o.o

Went home to play maple, Mercedes

 



Think I maple too much until forgot do reflection journal
Probably will get B this time for not doing reflection journal T.T

Wednesday, 25th July 2012

Last night forgot to do reflection journal of Science lesson lol
Slacked too much x.x
Think cause I last night too tired also, then it somehow slip out of my mind

Today's classroom still as cold as ever ~.~

Slacked for whole day in class cause today's problem statement need artists de skills
Me, as a programmer with no artistic sense, is basically useless in such situation
So I simply became Jason II and played games like League of Legend
Jason got scolded by John for playing RuneScape since morning until afternoon lolz

Tuesday, 24th July 2012

Today woke up at 5.30 am cause got cats quarrel x.x
Noisy cats

Learnt biology during science lesson x.x
I quite bad in biology not cause I don't understand the concepts, is due to the long names
So hard to remember all the names

Science notes about cells:

Cell
- Basic structural and functional unit of organisms
- Smallest unit
- Called as building block of life

Unicellular - Consisting of a single cell, including most bacteria
Multicellular - plants and animals

Humans contain about 10 trillion cells

Two types of cells:
- Eukaryotic (independent)
- Prokaryotic (often found in multi cellular organisms)

White cell
- Kills germ
Red cell
- Makes blood

Seven Main Categories of cell in human body:
Epithelium - Lines the inside and outside of organs/bodies.
Nervous - forms your nerves and brain.
Mesenchymal - forms the structure of your body (bones and such)
Lymphocytye - general term for the blood cells that protect you from illness.
Melanocytes - Kind of a blend of epithelium and nervous tissues. Give your skin pigment and protection from the Sun.
Neuroendocrine - Kind of a different blend of epithelium and nervous tissues. These give you the ability to create and secrete hormones.

Thursday, 19th July 2012

Forgot to blog this yesterday was too tired

Guess my body too weak to chiong maple liao x.x

The programming was kinda easy for me, I also edited my code to quite a large extent because adding of improvements.

Edited code of Guessing Game :

from random import randint

ans = randint(1,99)
low = 1
high = 99
guess = ' '
tries = 0

while (guess != ans):
    if (guess) == '0':
        exit()

    guess = raw_input("Guess the number between " + `low` + " and " + `high` + ": (Enter 0 to exit game)")
    tries += 1

    guess = guess.lower()
    if (guess) == 'cheats':
        print "Answer is " + `ans`
        guess = raw_input("Guess the number between " + `low` + " and " + `high` + ": (Enter 0 to exit game)")

    try:
        guess = int(guess)
        if guess < 1 or guess > 99:
            print "Please enter between 1 to 99"
            guess = raw_input("Guess the number between " + `low` + " and " + `high` + ": (Enter 0 to exit game)")

    except:
        print "Please enter between 1 to 99"
        guess = raw_input("Guess the number between " + `low` + " and " + `high` + ": (Enter 0 to exit game)")

    if guess > ans:
        if guess < high:
            high = guess

    elif guess < ans:
        if guess > low:
            low = guess

print "Well done!"
print "The answer is "+ `ans` + "!"
print "You took " + `tries` + " tries"

if tries <= 5:
    print "Wow, you're really lucky!"
elif tries > 5 and tries <= 10:
    print "Not bad, quite lucky~"
else:
    print "Nice effort, you might be luckier on next game!"

Scary day.... For my class, not me lol
Still okay for me

Today's Communication Practice, a relief teacher came in.
Miss Thomas had to present something, thus she was busy.

My class was kinda pissed off because they had to choose how to present the solution.
60% feels that the solution should be done in PowerPoint, while 40% feels that it should be present in terms of report.
Some of my classmates are also confused by the problem statement


The problem statement is "How to present it visually?"

CAMPAIGN FOR STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT

Alex Ashley, Bella Bosch, Charles Cassidy and Daisy Dextor were in the race for the top position of Student Council President.

Alex Ashley is a 1st year student pursuing a Diploma in Aerospace Avionics.  Alex enjoys reading and playing chess.  He lives in Seng Kang.  He campaigned on the platform of getting school administrators to consider air-conditioning all the canteens on campus, instituting a peer-mentoring system where higher grade students can tutor those with a lower grade for free and creating more artistic activities for students.

Bella Bosch is a 2^nd year student pursuing a Diploma in Business Application. Bella enjoys roller-blading and spends most of her free time at East Coast Park.  She lives in Potong Pasir.  She campaigned on the platform of introducing more activities for students, improving the flow of information from school administrators to all students, getting school authorities to introduce a greater variety of food on campus and creating a skate park on campus.

Charles Cassidy is a 2^nd year student pursuing a Diploma in Civil Aviation. Charles enjoys track and field and swimming.  He represents the school in swimming competitions and has won the gold medal 5 times in the past.  He lives in Sembawang.  He campaigned on the platform of making one hour of exercise each day compulsory (so as to improve the health of all students), revamp the menu at all the canteens to include more healthy dishes and improve the equipment at the school gym.

Daisy Dextor is a 3^rd year student pursuing a Diploma in Design for Interactivity.  Daisy enjoys watching movies and shopping.  She lives in Woodlands.  She campaigned on the platform of getting school administrators to beautify the school with sculptures and paintings, implement a shorter school day, creating more opportunities for all students to get together and socialize and having weekly screenings of blockbuster movies on campus.

Votes for each of the candidates were collected on 3 separate occasions (one from the ballot box in the Student Wellness Centre, another from student volunteers who went around collecting votes in person and the third from a ballot box at One Stop Centre).  The number of votes for each candidate is as follows:  Alex (Student Wellness Centre collection = 70 votes, Student volunteers = 155 votes, One Stop Centre = 115 votes), Bella (Student Wellness Centre collection = 40 votes, Student volunteers = 190 votes, One Stop Center = 10 votes), Charles (Student Wellness Centre collection = 18 votes, Student volunteers = 39 votes, One Stop Centre = 25 votes) and Daisy (Student Wellness Centre collection = 92 votes, Student volunteers = 95 votes, One Stop Centre = 34 votes).

Each candidate was allocated a campaign budget based on their campaign proposal.  Alex was given a budget of $200, Bella was given a budget of $100, Charles was given a budget of $150 and Daisy was given a budget of $180. 

Alex spent $150 of her budget on printing flyers and $50 on a campaign banner.  Bella spent $60 on a campaign banner and $30 on printing flyers.  Charles spent $70 on a campaign banner and $80 on printing flyers. Daisy spent $150 on printing flyers.

Bella and Charles have run unsuccessfully for the position of Student Council President in 2010 and 2011.  Bella spent $120 on the campaign in 2010 and $80 in 2011.  Charles spent $150 in 2010 and $100 in 2011 on the campaign.

The total expenditure for campaign budgets in the last 3 years is as follows:  In 2010, $525 was spent.  In 2011, $420 was spent.  In 2012, $610 was spent.

STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT CAMPAIGN REPORT

Four Student Council President Candidates were in the race for the top position of Student Council President.

Alex Ashley is a 1^st year student pursuing a Diploma in Aerospace Avionics. Alex campaigned on the platform of getting school administrators to consider air-conditioning for all the canteens on campus, instituting a peer-mentoring system where higher grade students can tutor those with a lower grade for free and creating more artistic activities for students.

Bella Bosch is a 2^nd year student pursuing a Diploma in Business Application. Bella campaigned on the platform of introducing more activities for students, improving the flow of information from school administrators to all students, getting school authorities to introduce a greater variety of food on campus and creating a skate park on campus.

Charles Cassidy is a 2^nd year student pursuing a Diploma in Civil Aviation. He campaigned on the platform of making one hour of exercise each day compulsory (So as to improve the health of all students), revamp the menu at all the canteens to include more healthy dishes and improve the equipment at the school gym.

Daisy Dextor is a 3^rd year student pursuing a Diploma in Design for Interactivity. Daisy campaigned on the platform of getting school administrators to beautify the school with sculptures and paintings, implement a shorter school day, creating more opportunities for all students to get together and socialize and having weekly screenings of blockbuster movies on campus.

The pie chart below shows the total amount of votes of each candidate collected from 3 separate occasions (One from the ballot box in the Student Wellness Centre, another from student volunteers who went around collecting votes in person and the third from a ballot box at One Stop Centre).

Votes that Alex obtained: (Student Wellness Centre = 70, Student volunteers = 155, One Stop Centre = 115)

Votes that Bella obtained: (Student Wellness Centre = 40, Student volunteers = 190, One Stop Center = 10)

Votes that Charles obtained:  (Student Wellness Centre collection = 18, Student volunteers = 39, One Stop Centre = 25)

Votes that Daisy obtained:  (Student Wellness Centre collection = 92, Student volunteers = 95, One Stop Centre = 34).

Each candidate was allocated a campaign budget based on their campaign proposal.

The bar chart below shows each candidate’s total expenditure and their budget as well.

Alex spent $150 of her budget on printing flyers and $50 on a campaign banner.  Bella spent $60 on a campaign banner and $30 on printing flyers.  Charles spent $70 on a campaign banner and $80 on printing flyers. Daisy spent $150 on printing flyers.

Conclusion :
This is my first time doing graphs, of course made some mistakes. Teacher expects 4 infographs, I only gave 2.
The candidates biography should be made into a table, to compare their abilities and achievement.
The results for total votes, should be made into a bar/column chart. Although % is easier for me to compare, but that's my viewpoint as a programmer.

Overall, it was a fun experience learning there're different types of infographs in our life.
Even MRT map or periodic table.

Thursday, 12th July 2012

Forgot to post this on Thursday, but my memory kinda fresh so I'll just post now before I forgets x.x

I did the programming problem statement beforehand and went to help my classmates with their codes.
Some of them had to rely on external sources in a bad way, I'm also not sure how to guide them. Feel kinda sad that 8 people got lesser than D in programming UT 1, I hope none of my classmates have to stay back just for programming module.

Wednesday, 11th July 2012

Last night slept at around 2 am, was teaching friend how to play game until too late.
Also spent some time on this week's programming problem statement, think I'm done with the codes. Kinda troublesome x.x

Today need create story, randomly bullshit a story
Doesn't seems impactful enough, but I also lazy to chiong for creative concepts x.x

Tuesday, 10th July 2012

Today's Communication Practice Problem Statement is about creating an effective poster to sell mobile phone accessories (covers, pouches, etc) to RP students and staff at annual Pushcart Competition 2012.

I feel these previous teachings are needed for today's problem statement, not sure missed out what.

Need :
- To present our ideas clearly
- Creative thinking
- Good structure of our poster for a clear message
- Memorable
- Know our target audience well, their social charateristics and mindset
- Appeal our poster and products to them emotionally

Avoid :
- Plagiarism
- Misrepresentation
- Stereotyping

Today learnt 6 Principles of Design :
- Balance
- Proportion
- Direction
- Focus
- Contrast
- Spatiality/White Space

Kinda screwed up presentation due to wrong images used, my fault x.x
Guess I do sucked in art stuffs, I still find it stupid need to use photoshop now but we gonna learn it at 2nd year

Took a class photo then went to Yishun japanese restaurant with Muffin.
She ordered salmon ramen, while I order chicken + egg rice
Price jumped to $30+ lolz

Thursday, 5th July 2012

Today did programming very slowly cause I unable to find the installer for Python Image Library before lesson, so I had to start from scratch.

The codes are easy, but logic are hard to understand and utilize.
Some people skipped class cause it's too hard for them to catch up with programming x.x

Ate Mac Donald with Muffin at Admiralty after school.
Wondering who can I teach programming lolz

Wednesday, 4th July 2012

Today's Creative Concept lesson, topic is "Think out of the box"

Assuming boss gave an empty and unmarked box, make something out of it with the theme "Enjoyable"

Team chose to make laptop stand, not that hard.

Tuesday, 3rd July 2012

Today reached school quite early, everyone discussing about the results of Creative Concept UT 1.

I got B+, 22/28

The science lesson was a disaster because although I can do most of the problems, teacher said I did wrong for average =.=
So I simply went off to take my ITE certificate

Also ate dinner with Muffin, nothing much nice in school today x.x

Monday, 2nd July 2012

Father's taxi broke down yesterday I think
Had to take bus to school today, wasn't late for class

Today changed teacher for Art of Story, he didn't seems as strict as he looks.
Today's lesson, have to watch 5 short videos
Select 1 of the videos, find out the theme and justification of the theme.

1 of my team mate managed to finish most of the presentation, I only need to edit a few things to make it look nicer.

Saturday, 30th June 2012 to Sunday, 1st July 2012

Woke up at 3+ pm cause overslept
Met up with Dong Wen to go tampines, then met with Darren
In the end, Zes also joined us.

Went to Pasir Ris park to rent bicycle over night, paid $20 lol
Feel like buying a bike when rent a bike so expensive x.x
Roamed around the beach and park area randomly until night, nothing much actually lol

Went to Darren's house at around 9 pm I think
Went out at around 11 pm, eat carrot cake lolz
Played 2 rounds of mahjong until around 3 or 4 am, I lost nearly $30
Realized my mahjong very weak now lol, need practice during holidays x.x

Went out at 7 am, ate big breakfast with them at pasir ris area
Also to return the bikes

Reached home around 11 am, went out to meet Muffin at her area
Nowhere else to go, went to my house and slack

Later on, sent her back to her area and ate salmon pepper lunch for dinner.
Bought a Zinc bag for her after dinner, also bought a small pouch for my HDD
Giving her an early 2nd month present

Friday, 29th June 2012

Today went to school, was still wondering what kinda activities awaiting for me...
I feel stupid after the activities cause the available activities are :
- Animal Sounds
- Debate
- Blindfold
- Run around school

i) The animal sounds part is, everyone take lottery with slip of papers. The paper got indicate which animal sound to make, everyone need to make the sounds to form their team.

ii) Debate is about an article, girl 16~17 years old slept with 48 men for 1 year (2010 to 2011). Is it right to reveal her name, since 48 men names was being exposed?

iii) Blindfold is just random people teamed up, and 1 side will get blindfolded. The other person will guide the blindfolded through a path, obstacles are just papers. I find it weird when my  facililator blindfolded me in a way that I can see the floor clearly lol, so I managed to clear the stage without any troubles.

iv) Run around school, is just some sort of treasure hunt. Was assigned a picture of a location, need find the location and take picture in the exact same way. Beside being last team, facililator also misguided us, so we ended up last team. But never mind, lucky no punishment, or else I complain lol.

Although completed the lame activities, but still need to do reflection journal, write about what skills being used x.x
Wrote 600 words in my reflection journal.
Damn, that's really long and tiring. Made me hungry after writing, and also thinking, so much

We were released at 11 am, but Art of Story UT starts at 4.45 pm. Had like 5 hours lol
In the end, we just went back to class to watch Finding Nemo and also Woman in Black.

Slacked at class until 4 and everyone went to their respective UT classrooms.
I managed to do the UT quite fast, spent only half of the time, although I wrote little.
But never mind, I will see how strict they mark first ~.~

Not much new mangas for this week, went to buy a present for a malaysian classmate instead. Didn't give him present for his birthday, just a cheap one anyway.

Reflection Journal for Programming Week 08

The code should be continuous...
1) Create a list named 'numList' with the following numbers: 4, 7, 9, 0, 9, 7, 43, 2, 6, 87
2) Print out the last element in 'numList'
3) Write a loop that prints out ALL the elements in numList (first number printed must be 4)
4) Write a loop that prints out ALL the elements in numList in REVERSE ORDER (first number printed must be 87)
5) Write a loop that prints out all the numbers in numList that are GREATER THAN 10

The code :

numList = [4, 7, 9, 0, 9, 7, 43, 2, 6, 87]
print "This is last element " + `numList[-1]`
print ' '
for x in range(len(numList)):
        print numList[x]
print ' '
numList.reverse()
for x in range(len(numList)):
    print numList[x]
print ' '
for x in range(len(numList)):
    if numList[x] > 10:
        print "Greater than 10 got " + `numList[x]`

Ate maggie mee with 2 eggs at 2+ am, too hungry after do programming lol
Brain encountered some logic errors, not sure how to solve
Think I too tired today also x.x

Managed to solve today's problem statement de bonus part by myself
After a long time though

I find it really stupid if someone wants me to approach the person and understand the person from just facial expressions, how the hell do I know

Display Month Function

month = raw_input("Enter the number of month")

try:
    month = int(month) - 1
    if month < 0 or month >= 12:
        print "Please enter between 1 to 12"
        exit()

except:
    print "Error"
    exit()

def displayMonth(month):
    listOfMonth = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec']
    return listOfMonth[month]

print displayMonth(month)

Purpose of this code:
- Calculate the number of month and display the month's name
* Plans to take in day & year of birthday
* To calculate horoscope and chinese zodiac

Today finally no wear full black
Instead, red top and white bottom

Think this pattern would be more suitable for Creative Concepts

Today's problem trigger is Belief

My team chose Plastic Surgery, is it okay?

I found a few pictures that has plastic surgery jokes in them

Arguments....
Seriously?

Today have to watch Matrix for Art of Story

I watched all three movies before -_-
Simply watched Dantalian no Shoka during the movie lol

Only help little in today's presentation
Changed powerpoint background to black and font to green for a Matrix feel

Went to Causeway Point's Pastamania for dinner with Muffin
She ordered Turkey Bacon Cheesy Crumble while I ordered Hawaiian Pizza

Everytime I say I eat Hawaiian Pizza at Pastamania, people will doubt me
Thought I referring to Pizza Hut -_-

Bought 5 boxes of tissue just now
Price tag wrote $4.00 but $2.99 when bring to counter
$3.00 for 5 boxes of tissue is cheap

Today Communication Practice
Need go down for a talk, by Mr Sam Tan

Discussed about how communication barrier can be formed by 4 type of noises
- Physical
- Psychological
- Physiological
- Semantic

Afterwards, went for programming UT
So hard sia lol

Guessing Game

Made this game with the help of 6P and prior knowledge from ITE de C# programming

Just a simple guessing game in Python that only requires user to guess a digit from 1 to 99 by just entering the answer they feel is right

The code :

import random

ans = random.randint(1,99)
low = 1
high = 99
temp_low = 0
temp_high = 0
guess = ' '
tries = 1

while (guess != ans):
    tries = tries + 1
    guess = raw_input("Guess the number between 1 and 99: ")

    try:
        guess = int(guess)
        if guess < 1 or guess > 99:
            print "Please enter between 1 to 99"
            exit()

    except:
        print "Invalid Entry, Game Over"
        exit()

    if guess < ans:
        if guess > low:
            temp_low = guess

        low = guess

        if low > temp_low:
            low = low

        else:
            low = temp_low
        print "You entered " + `guess`
        print "It is HIGHER than " + `low` + " but LOWER than " + `high`

    elif guess > ans:
        if guess < high:
                temp_high = guess

        high = guess

        if high < temp_high:
            high = high

        else:
            high = temp_high
        print "You entered " + `guess`
        print "It is HIGHER than " + `low` + " but LOWER than " + `high`

print "Well done!"
print "The answer is "+ `ans` + "!"
print "You took " + `tries` + " tries"

if tries <= 5:
    print "Wow, you're really lucky"
if tries > 5 and tries <= 10:
    print "Not bad, quite lucky~"
else:
    print "Nice effort, you might be luckier on next game!"


Gonna try create Scissor, Paper, Stone game with a similar concept when free

Worksheet [List]

# Lucky Number

name = raw_input("Enter your full name")

def calculateLuckyNumber(name):
    nameSplit = name.split(' ')
    F = len(nameSplit[0])
    S = len(nameSplit[1])
    T = len(nameSplit[2])
    luckyNum = ((2 * F + S) + T) % 10
    return luckyNum

print calculateLuckyNumber(name)

# Using List

sentence = "Dell profit surges on revived business spend"
words = sentence.split()

print words[0] + " " + words[4] + " " + words[5]
print len(words[0]) + len(words[4]) + len(words[5])

#Filtering Words

sentence = 'cat dog lion tiger mouse cow'
sentenceSplit = sentence.split(' ')

for a in range(0,6,1):
    count = len(sentenceSplit[a])
    if count == 3:
        print sentenceSplit[a]

# Sum Up Numbers

num_list = range(0,30,4)
total = 0
for a in num_list:
    total = total + a
print total

# Sum Up Even Numbers

num_list = range(0,30,3)
total = 0
for x in num_list:
    if x % 2 == 0:
        total+=x
print total

# Count even numbers
num_list = range(0,30,3)

even = 0
for x in num_list:
    if x % 2 == 0:
        even+=1
print even

Today Creative Concepts
Need design a float for Chingay festival
Theme is Garden City

I never go to Chingay before, so I don't know what is it lol
Just playing along with it
Need artist for this mission lol

Made a few China quality buildings with paper and others with recycled stuffs.

Both me & Muffin feeling abit sick today
I recovered after drinking cold water & hyper for nothing
But she still sick, hope she recover soon x.x

Blackthorn Morgana

Practice of coding during UT clinic [ Electronegativity values difference between elements ]

The UT clinic was unhelpful to a large extent, so I practice programming on my own without any references.

a = raw_input("Please enter the 1st Electronegativity")
b = raw_input("Please enter the 2nd Electronegativity")

try:
    a = float(a)
    if a < 0:
        print "Invalid value"
        exit()

    b = float(b)
    if b < 0:
        print "Invalid value"
        exit()

except:
    print "Please enter valid float"
    exit()

if a > b:
    c = a - b
elif b > a:
    c = b - a

if c < 0.5:
    print "Difference is " + `round(c,2)`
    print "It is Non-Polar Covalent Bond"
    print "Temporary Charges"

if c > 0.5 and c < 2.0:
    print "Difference is " + `round(c,2)`
    print "It is Polar Covalent Bond"
    print "Permanent Charges"

if c > 2.0:
    print "Difference is " + `round(c,2)`
    print "It is Ionic Bond"
    print "Permanent Charges"

Electronegativity and Types of bonds

When two atoms share electrons, a covalent bond is formed.

i.    If electrons are shared more or less equally, a non-polar covalent bond exists between the atoms (e.g. H-C).

ii.    If electrons are shared unequally, a polar covalent bond exists between the atoms (e.g. H-O).

Values of the elements

Slept at 10 pm last night
Today woke at 7 am to buy Egg McMuffin for Muffin

Today need study the chemical properties of water
Example:
- Why does ice cube float on water
- Why is water able to dissolve various substances like salt
- Why water has a high boiling point

Notes :
Hydrogen Bonding can only occur when H is interacting with F, N or O

To determine the polar, non-polar or ionic bond.
Need calculate the difference between the elements de elctronegativity values.

Finally art of story

Lesson starts on 8.30, teacher arrive at 9

3rd meeting start at 1.30, teacher reach at 1.45 lol

Sian....

Teacher leaving soon, by end of this month
Make me wondered, who would be my new teacher?
I hope no more Cs =.=

Slept for 2 hours only last night, from 5+ to 7+ am
So tired lol, almost fell asleep on bus

After school, went Causeway Point to eat Pizza Hut
Today Darren's birthday, eat pizza to celebrate
But the offer really shitty, plus got GST & Service Charge
I think I next time eat pizza at my area better lol

Rounding Decimal Points (Money)

Just a random code I made when got nothing to do, figured might have to count money stuffs sooner or later.

a = raw_input("First price")
b = raw_input("Second price")
c = raw_input("Third price")

try:
    a = float(a)
    if a < 0:
        print "Please enter positive values"
        exit()

    b = float(b)
    if b < 0:
        print "Please enter positive values"
        exit()

    c = float(c)
    if c < 0:
        print "Please enter positive values"
        exit()

except:
    print "Invalid"
    exit()

def ExtraCost(a,b,c):
    cost = a + b + c
    gst = cost * 0.07
    svc = cost * 0.1
    print "Intial cost is $" + `round(cost, 2)`
    print "GST is $" + `round(gst, 2)`
    print "Service charge is $" + `round(svc, 2)`
    total = cost + gst + svc
    return round(total, 2)

print "Final cost is $" + `ExtraCost(a,b,c)`

Woke up around 4 today x.x
Last night slept too late, nothing to do today anyway
Slacking~

Think will get this on Tuesday for Muffin

Don't feel like going to school tomorrow cause I got 3 Cs from 5 lessons only =.=
Wonder what do I have to write to get B or better...

Saturday, 16th June 2012

Woke up late today despite is 1st month with her x.x

Ate a $10 cake with her
Walked around Jcube until 9+

Went to check out all the stores in Jcube, saw some weird ones
Also saw people ice skate, kinda cool
But I still remember how I sucked in ice skating, so I won't go down to skate


Roughly like that, nothing much o.o

Friday, 15th June 2012

Today reached school quite early, around 8
Waiting for class to start x.x
Didn't change group today cause teacher forgot

Today Communication Practice need do something about Air Force 1
I lazy elaborate lol
1 word to describe, troublesome

Managed to bullshit about my reflection journal for Communication Practice
Still got Air Force de need to bullshit, why need 300 words also sia
They really will read it de meh =.=

Reflection Journal for Programming 06

The Question (from http://bit.ly/KxmVcS) :

The Code :

# 4 line version

for i in range(0,10,1):
    print (i*'#') + (22 - i*2) * ' ' + (i*'#')
for i in range(10,0,-1):
    print (i*'#') + (22 - i*2) * ' ' + (i*'#')

OR

# 5 line version

def hourglass(a,b,c):
    for i in range (a,b,c):
        print (i*'#') + (22 - i*2) * ' ' + (i*'#')
hourglass(0,10,1)
hourglass(10,0,-1)

Reflection : Managed to figure out how the pattern of the code should be after 10 minutes of screwing around with the codes.
I'm bad with visualizing such stuffs in my mind with program codes, hope next time don't have such troublesome question lol.

Thursday, 14th June 2012

Today programming lesson
Tio scam
Not ball, but is a moving stick
Teacher tell me is a running man, what shitty graphics is that lol

Gao~

Managed to finish today de programming target cause got help from other programmers
Hate visualizing weird things =.=

Reflection Journal also need write about codes LOL

After programming lesson, went for 2nd UT
Which is Communication Practice

Kinda easy actually, at least easier than Creative Concepts lol
At least no need think about durian and batman~

Wednesday, 13th June 2012

Slept at 12.30 last night, today woke up quite tired x.x
Was deep in thoughts this morning, thinking how to stop my cat escaping the house through my window.
Father thought I having troubles, asked me why am I so quiet lol

Sian, today Creative Concept need to act out
It's for overcoming stage fright
But I don't have stage fright, I have act fright x.x

Muffin came my house after school, to make notes and also study for tomorrow's UT
After we made notes for Communication Practice, I sent her back to Clementi
We went to eat Pepper Lunch and also Ice Kacang.
She ordered beef pepper lunch while I ordered the salmon one ~.~
The Ice Kacang sucks seriously lol, wonder the red bean low quality or what

Hope tomorrow can finish UT on time x.x
