What I learn during my stay in France 4-Overwhelming Kisses

There is somthing that only the US ASD keyboard can do and no other keyboard can. Wanna know what is it?

This...

!@#$%^&*(*&^%$#@#$%^&*(*&^%$#@!@#$%^&*&^%$#@!@#$%^

If you have any other european based keyboard(dunno what you call it), try typing the above line, it'll take you forever to find the right key. hehe..

I guess that explains why europeans curse less than americans. Or maybe not? haha..

ps: in syok sendiri mood cuz somebody's going home soon!!

Eurobot 2009, La Ferte Bernard 0-Kiss Me Now!!



An outdated post it is. Supposed to post this up two weeks back, but I got too caught up with work. Anyway, here it is. =)


So two weekends ago, I was at La Ferte Bernard, for a robotics competition called EUROBOT. UTP started participating last year, when I was the main programmer. It was held in Germany, and this it's in France.

So I went as a supporter for my Uni as well as for Malaysia. However, I ended up being the programmer again. Did not sleep for a night just to program the monster for the next round of competition.



And this is the competition hall. There were 5 tables in total so 5 games can run consecutively. Too bad I didn't get any pictures of me when I was in the game.

We started off pretty badly, none of our robots managed to score. But I'm glad that the last few rounds, we manage to get some points.

And our final ranking is at 27th and 29th(since we sent two teams), out of 50 european teams. Consider that as quite an accomplishment, since its only our second participation, and its against the europeans! =)



Also managed to spend some time hanging around in the city centre. Another old town just like Heidelberg, Germany where Eurobot was held last year. It's quite pretty actually but I just don't have the oohm to take more pictures after all the programming and no sleeping. =(



Last picture of us for the day.

I'm actually in quite an emo state now, so, gonna go off...

Bon Weekend!
