Its been one long month since i last bogged. Been busy at the first 2 weeks with catching up stuff in University. I am living good in Miri. Got to know friends who drive me around Miri as private tour. So, I already visited some of popular places in Miri. From the richest tycoon’s houses to famous local delights.
Ulu Mayam ( famous pricy seafood restaurant)
Malaysia’s First Inland Oil drilling.
My schedule is heavily packed from tuesday to thursday ( on average from 8 am – 930 pm) which include the 4 hours break in between. First two weeks time table was keep changing .. Friends got annoyed after missing lecture just because of that!
What i think bout Curtin University? It was good in overall, environment, classroom, lecture hall, ICT Lab, all those experiment Labs. Just that service of the school is not as efficient as it should be. Oh well.. nth perfect. Here some few pictures of this University,
oh oh let me show Miri airport,
Looks like KLIA right?? xD
The cafeteria.
G1 building with student service centre just right after that brick wall.
Chemical Engineering Building
Mechanical Engineering Building
Lakeside ( which confirmed by wildlife authorities that there are Crocs nearby, so it is banned area for now)
Main Building ( the libabry just right beside this counter)
Lake side apartment ( its the different lake from the previous lake)
Like the greenery grass.. Its damn syok to have out door activities here during the evening with the sunset beside the lake. (:
Lets see.. Currently, I have a Russian lecturer for Engineering Mathematic, Myanmarese for my Engineering Materials. However, lecturer will be change after this tuition free week for materials as we going into different topic (Organic!). Engineering Mechanics under a chinese guy and EFPC ( Engineering Foundations Principles and Communication ) , hate this unit because of the project. We are require either to build a car ( with mouse trap) or bridge (with pop-sticks). Its a 12 weeks projects, where we have to set up a real company with company policy, company profile, company diary as log book.. .then tender evaulation ..bid form…etc etc… At the end, bridges will be put into test on how many weight it can withstand. As for the car, how fast/far it can go on a straight line and whether it can travel across the bridge.
I heard there is another Unit like this in the 2nd semester.. ? Great… LOL =.=
Basically, form6 syllabus really help me alot on the fundamental of eng. Mechanics, Materials and Maths. Eventhough, sometimes you will find physic topic in Materials e.g: X-ray Diffraction, Bragg’s Law, Magnetic Flux Density…Okay. So thx alot for the form 6 !!
Hmm.. Internet Connection here pretty slow… dragging… So i only use for printing my notes. :D Oh yea.. thanks to my senior, Jason Ang, i got all the lecture notes which save me a sum of money. :) I have to admit that seniors here ( at least for those who i know) are friendly and willing to help you anytime. I got some of my second hand book really cheap!
Hmm… Currently, My friend are one fetching me in and out of the campus. :) No need to wait for the stupid buses which 80% late and standing are not allowed! So practically, its normal to wait for few round just to get to the campus. T.T. lol
Remember the Hazy days in Miri last week??
Yes.. thats our beautiful lake.. and open fire at the other side of the lake.. –.- Even our school guards were assigned to put off the fire. lol However, weather got better this few days with the rains this few days. :D
