Do U Know? :about Sleep



Humans spend 1/3 of their time of their life... sleeping...

Children who lack of sleep have a higher chance to be overweight...

Children experience sleepiness during day time could be a sign that puberty is approaching...

One out of five teenagers gets nine hours of sleep during schooling...

Students getting low grades in their studies have less sleep...

Teenagers naturally get sleepy at very late at night and tend to wake up later in the morning....

Elder people tends to get sleepy early but they may need less sleep to stay awake during day time.

Nearly half of the elderly ( 60 and older ) experience Insomnia...

Elderly people are healthier when they sleep well in their middle age....

Happiness is like a Clear Glass


Quote from Code Geass ( spoiler )



Happiness is like a glass, you need to tilt alittle to notice it is there
when it spark and reflects...

Sometimes... or most or the times.. its always there and always been there under our noses....
A little changes or hardships are sometimes required to make us realise it.
Thus, never take life for granted.

Tiny Japanese Girl



*Note Watch in Youtube for better quality

Animation by Weebi
Song by Savlonic

Lyrics:

Guy:
Tiny Japanese girl
You’re my tiny Japanese girl
Tiny Japanese girl
Get out my shoebox, girl
I need to put my shoes away

They’re gonna get all scuffed and bad
While you’re in there, girl
Doesn’t even fit you
I mean, you’re small but you’re not a midget, girl

Girl:
But I’m tiny like a dormouse
Short like a bungalow house
Minute like a pixie
You can barely even see me

I could ride around on a Shetland pony
And people say
I’m far away
Guy: Well you are quite small
Girl: But I’m pretty big in Tokyo

Guy:
Tiny Japanese girl, when I'm stood next to you
You make me feel so tall, though I’m just five foot two
It’s like I’m stood on a wall or a really big dog
But it’s just that you’re small, so there’s no need for that dog

Tiny Japanese girl, I find you perfectly sized
And you fit in small places when you’re needing to hide
But don’t hide from my love ’cause it’s hunting you down
I know you’ve got a big heart, I’ve seen you wheel it around

Girl:
But I’m tiny like a dormouse
Short like a bungalow house
Minute like a pixie
You can barely even see me

I could ride around on a Shetland pony
And people say
I’m far away
(I’m far away)
But I’m pretty big in Tokyo
Pretty big in Tokyo
Pretty big in Tokyo
I’m pretty big in Tokyo

Treat your Enemies Right


This an inspiring story which was shared by a fellow friend. Is a bout a victim show kindness to a mugger. Although, his belongs were taking, he still treat him with a warm heart. Click on the link to read the whole uplifting story.



Many of times, when we face people that we don't like or evil people and we be most of the time condemning them of their fault and wrong. It is good to correct them of their wrongs but sometimes we clouded with anger and frustration which makes the situation worse.

In the story, being calm and have a big heart can turn people around ( 180 degrees ). Instead of fighting fire with fire or an eye for an eye, a gentle and kind heart can lead to mutual understanding and changing of lifes.

In the story, he eventhough the mugger did something bad to him, he still attempt to befriend and to understanding him more. Even to the extend of caring for him. How many people actually does this?

This story reminded me of Jesus, no matter how bad we messed things up , hurting him by doing wrong and run away, he will still be waiting at the door step everyday expecting your return. What more he go out there just to find you. Just like the story of the lost sheep, where the shepherd leave the 99 sheep behind just to find a lost sheep or in the story of the 'prodigal son' where the father waited expectedly for this son to return.

Here are some verse that came to mind about how we should treat our enemies and change their lifes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew 5:44

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Proverbs 25:21

21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
22 In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head,
and the LORD will reward you
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Romans 12:16-21

16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.

17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.

20 On the contrary:

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

John 3:17

"For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Mark 2:17

"On hearing this, Jesus said to them, 'It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.'"


Would you be different and change lifes?

The Neverhood Chronicles


If you like Claymation, Stop-motion, weird or just random stuff, then THIS IS A GAME FOR YOU...jajaja.....




The Neverhood Chronicles a Claymation Style game. Created in 1996 and released by Dreamworks studios, its one of the unique PC games I ever played.With its weird and interesting music, animation and gameplay, its certainly (to me) an awesome experience xD. There are not may claymation style games in the market and most of them went unappreciated. This was probably cause by the the decline of adventure games in the 1990s.

This is Clayman, a ...clayman... lol.. Throughout the game you be guide the character to solve weird puzzles and explore the Neverhood (weird piece of land which floats in space *spoiler*).




Ouch~*

In the beginning of the game, there is no prologue or whatever guide, direction and introduction to the character so alot of questions about the origin of some characters and their roles. All this question will be answered after you experience the game until the end.



Eating too much mushroom cause you to burp for 2 minutes( click for spoiler)




Hall of records.. the longest hall walk ever experience. Took 5 mins just to get to the other end!!




First stage... Where am I? Who is this ? Why there is a giant hammer in the room....?





Bill the robot....


Neverhood intro... just totally, utterly awesomely weird :P



Playing
The making of ...

ALU a.k.a computer's common sense


AN interesting assignment came up where my group are required to design an Arithmetic Logical Unit a.k.a computer's common sense.... Using Quartus 2. The programming language VHDL is totally alien compare to the common programming language like C/C++ or java ,As we are design hardware and not software, thus the understanding of the flow is different ( not all of the flow are sequential ) and need to imagine alot how the hardware works and which component to use to construct it ( think like a hardware, be the hardware :P )

To put in simple terms, ALU is a :
  • -Translator
( translate instruction( japanese boss) into machine language(worker in some country) that the CPU understand, みましょう食べる translation : Lets eat)
  • -Accountant
( calculate stuff, 1+2=3 )
  • -QC department
( measure, compare stuff, 9 is bigger than 5)



Using a FBGA board to demonstrate the ALU functions

Few hours before presentation ^^
