The reality of working on an Engineering project


So recently we had a project called the 8-bit design of Arithmetic Logic Unit, where we had to design a system that would satisfy the conditions given by our professor. And given that we had a LOT of things to do prior to this project our superficial cramming powers kicked in. We did the hardware overnight. The design, for 2 weeks maybe. And here are our overnight pics and in suicide mission pics. Calling it a suicide mission cause we did the hardware for 4 hours only. And it was crazy and really ambitious to finish it in 4 hours. ( we were supposed to use PCB, but we had a hard time, so don't judge if we did the breadboard design for 4 hrs only) . Oh, and I have to say there really is a homecourt advantage when you get to do the project in your house, got a lot of unused electronic equipment from it.

The next day...

          ( No shower, planning of the       suicide mission)

           ( No connecting wires available on lab)

         ( Toolbox was not retrieved)

         ( started making the hardware)

            ( peeling of insulations)

The reality of wanting to talk to somebody

Ever get the feeling of wanting to talk to someone so badly, but your afraid you might annoy them? Or at the very least, they only talk to you out of politeness? How do you deal with this? Cause I've experienced this feeling over and over again, but I still don't know how to properly deal with it, better yet avoid it. I still try to discover different ways, and that puts me in an uneasy state. I try to stop myself by putting messages in the archive so I won't see the thread. I'm trying to live by the motto "Choose people who choose you" so that keeps myself from messaging a person. If they want to talk to you, they will. If you don't receive a message in a certain amount of time then you know what that means. But what if they feel the same way, and they're the ones waiting for your message?

The reality of taking the ECE Board Exam

I am here to put all fake news and myths down, confirm some info, cause I am gonna tell you the reality of the ECE BOARD EXAM. 1. PRE BOARDS and RC EXAMS Much harder than the actual board exam, I tell you. So don't feel bad if you fail an exam, or didn't reach your goal, you still have a long way to go. Remember also, it doesn't determine how you'd do in the actual board exam. But, it's a good practice. 2. THE ACTUAL BOARD EXAM You'd feel surprised once you see the actual board exam. 40-60% you'd feel like you can answer right away with all those techniques that were taught, at least for the Math and ESAT part. Electronics and GEAS you'd really have to push your luck, but it also depends. In some years, Elecs was easy, in some, it was the hardest. Just remember the board exam was designed to be answered by normal human beings, you don't have to feel that you have to have the highest of honors just so you can survive. 3. YOU WILL MISS CLASSE...

The reality of low maintenance relationships

A friend and I were talking about his love life and as he continues to talk shy-ly about it, he told me that it's no biggie since they're no high maintenance for affection. And really, I was struck. Who isn't high maintenance for affection? Don't you want frequent goodmornings and goodnights? To regularly see the person you adore. To constantly talk to him/her about your dreams, fears and random mumbles. It really kept me thinking. But maybe he's right. Revolving on another person would be mentally unhealthy and would figuratively consume you. And maybe this is the right age to understand or realize that life has unlimited adventures, but for a limited time. And giving every time to another would just be a waste. Maybe low maintenance affections would be healthy as long as both of you want and can maintain that level. At least there'd be balance. You can have fun with your friends and be with the person you love on some days.  Next question, how do you keep...
