Gee, I guess it is time for me to depart from Bandung since Lebaran's already very near. But this year's last moments (week) before Idul Fitri was totally hectic for me. OK, I'd like to wrap up and summarize of what's happened in the last couple of days. First, there were three mid tests held on the week: Kinematics on Monday night, Numerical Analysis and Programming on Thursday night, and in the end there would be Industrial Metrology and Statistics on Saturday morning. Although it is the last week before Idul Fitri, classes and assignments has been very time-consuming as well, not to mention additional activities such as committe-ship and other stuff.
Monday! Kinematics midtest. I had to say that I was pretty sure I did well in the test. But I don't know, there's always that unexpected factor which made disruption out of my prediction. Anyway, all in all, the test went well.
OK, let's see, I had a full-day at campus on the last Tuesday. Mechatronics from 09:00 to 11:00 continued by Matlab programming class until 13:00. Just after that there was Thermodynamics for 2 hours til 15:00. The last one was Machine Elements to the end of the day at 17:00. Thank God I hadn't take the Mechanics of Materials class. If I had, it would have been from 07:00 to 17:00. Ten hours non stop of sitting, listening to lectures.
Wednesday has always been quite a relaxing day. Only one class at this day, Manufacturing Processes from 15:00 to 17:00. After class, get ready to break the fast! Hell yeah!
Thursday, was a bummer. There was a class in the early morning and then one hour void, and then another class, another one hour void, one hour class, void (I took a quick nap here, yay!). Presentation for redesigning motorcycle's brake and life span was at 15:00. Last but not least, Numerical Analysis exam at 19:30. Unlucky! The problems issued in the test was out of the world! Well, not actually, I mean, the problem was strange enough that people were so confused. Finally, the lecturer gave several hints to help out, but still, it was just...uncool.
Friday. The three-men-team finally back in action! Yudhi Somali, Om Anda, and I decided to continue our assignment on analyzing and synthesizing a motorcycle's camshaft and its accessories after several weeks of vacuum. After a little bit of discussion, we decided to share jobs. We were to bring home the assignments and try to do some during the holiday. I got the assignment to get some data about bearings. In short, I have to get a hold of a bearing's standard catalogue (SKF, FAG, NSK, NTN) and adapt the equations from there. It's going to be a thought-occupying matter for the rest of the holiday but it needed to be done. Plus, I was also made to responsible for the sketch and drawing of the objects of camshaft, rocker-arm, and valve systems. That made it two things for me to be taken home during holiday.
Saturday (tomorrow) will be a hell of a day. I'll have Metrology and Statistics exam in the morning and then just after that, I must prepare myself for presentation on drilling processes. For the presentation, worry not about anything. It's the test I'm worrying about. There were rumors that the last grade of "A" issued was 10 years ago and there hasn't been any since then. But I don't know if it was true or not. Maybe it was just some hoax, but I have to admit that the subject is rather difficult. Test plus presentation will be finished around mid-day.
Before the day's over I will have to pay the bills (electricity, phone, water, etc) for the house in Cimahi. In order to do that, I must go back and forth Bandung-Cimahi-Bandung and it's very time consuming. I would have to say that it will spend half of my day. Let's just say I'll be back from Cimahi in the afternoon.
Last moments before going back to Cirebon (or Purwokerto, for that matter) I must do some other things. My brothers and sister has requested several things before I go home and I need to get the things for them. I also want to organize and clean up my room before I leave it for the rest of the week.
After all of those things have been fulfilled, next thing to do is to decide whether I shall go home at Saturday night (to Cirebon) or the next day Sunday morning (to Purwokerto). And finally, off I go...!
OK OK, back to real life. I need to study for tomorrow's Metrology, so...see you again later!
