and all these come only after kumar started out the project without giving us a flow rate to the question, making us crack out head on how to even start the project, then giving us a flow rate 1,370,310 lb/hr which was supposed to be 1,370,310 lb/DAY (it makes damn a big difference to our calculation and made us recalculate like 10000 times just to realise that it was wrong), then changing our shell outlet temperature on tuesday when we finished our whole calculation..
and also uddin, who took one whole freaking sem, to release a project, 3 weeks before reading week, when everyone else is rushing to finish up the other 2 projects. and he tried to make every groups' values different. by making our flow rate different. how different? group 1, flow rate= 10m3/s, group 2: 11 m3/s, group 3: 12 m3/s etc.. that's like damn different lah!
and zll, who added extra information like 3 times. that we had to change our program 3 times. and telling other groups, that we can't assume constant density while the question paper stated explicitly that we should assume constant density. argh.
why can't these prof/mentor/teaching assistants try out their design questions before giving it to us and release questions at the start/middle of the sems so that we can work on one project at a time. it's bad enough that we're the first batch of students to suffer from all the design projects. they must make us die and end up screwing up our exams. and in the end, the mediocre students like me, who's alr in a very bad state, to die even more. cause its 3 weeks before my first paper. and i'm as good as not attending the whole sem. i feel so dead. i dun even know how to survive this 4 weeks. it's worse than 4 weeks in hell.
argh, i'm complaining again! i can't help it. i should be studying in stead of wasting my time complaining here. 4 more weeks to determine my life for the next 2 yrs. sigh.
despite all these, i'm thankful for few things!
- i'm thankful for smart project group mates. who can read through perry's and coulson and kern. to figure out all the graphs, equations, correlations etc
- group mates who are so super efficient, they really make things so much easier. we tried to specialize. (although specialization didn't really work out very well towards the end...)
- group mates who share junk food. i dunno how much junk food we munched on till szechao decided to buy healthy food like bananas!
- group mate who let me drive his car, while the other group mates were in the car! I DROVE DANIEL'S CAR! although it's only from pgp to sheares. haha. but it's my first driving experience in singapore! hahaha. thanks for trusting my driving skills. haha.
- and i'm thankful that i know 4 more new ppl in my batch! haha.
- not to forget to be thankful for the existence of coffee which helped to keep me awake most of the time.
we spent total of about 60-70 hrs on 2 projects. and another separate 10 hrs on the other project. i'm so glad that it's over.
for ppl who haven't seen me around, this is wat i've been doing for the past whole month. it's not that i wanna live in my own world. i have no choice. and i just want this sem to be over.
