Final exam has passed, so as for camp PPMS (It's freaking Pembantu Pelajar Minggu SuaiKenal) and not Pre Pre Menstrual Sindrome dammit! Plz bare in mind haha. I'll elaborate on my final exams 1st, then PPMS and lastly my few days back in Subang alright. So how was finals? Great? Fantastic? Answer: Close to death! Thanks to Microcontroller 1. As for other subjects, it was pretty ok. Well, hope I'll be able to maintain my pointer for this sem.
Papers:
1) Data Communication and Network
Basically, this subject focuses on how digital data are being transferred through the 7 OSI layers. It's like a message being passed through from one computer (node) to another bt requires addition of bits (addition of unnecessary data) into the original data. This purpose is simply for error detection and correction. So, it's simply the understanding of how bridges, routers, gateways, message passing and all. One of my fav subjects haha.
2) Operating System Principle
This subject mainly emphasizes on how Operating System works. As an example, you're on Windows XP/Vista. So, we study about what are the programs used in that O.S to solve certain problems. Problems such as Deadlock (commonly known as Hang), how to solve it. When two programs needs to use the Physical Memory (Your RAM), how its resource is being distributed and how is it being passed on to another process and more. O.S used fr this subject is Linux.
3) Computer System & Architecture
As for this subject, we learned about how computer system works such as RAM, Bus, I/O, CPU, and more. Let's put it this way. It is the study of how components of computers are related to each other. Pretty fun as we're learning a new programming language which is known as VHDL using Quartus II. These language helps us to design the basic components of the computer.
4) Database System
We are exposed to SQL queries in order to retrive data which are stored in databases. This subject exposes us on how data is stored in modern computers. Involve MySQL database. Pretty fun subject as the queries are based on simple english language that can be easily remembered. One of my fav subjects too.
5) Microcontroller 1
And last but not the least, toughest of all, crazy subject, siao-lang punya lecturer...Micro.C.
So what is this Micro.c thingy? Microcontroller is an integrated circuit or commonly known as IC which is used in embedded systems to perform one task and one task only. As an example, a mouse. A mouse is to simply retrive instructions from the user by moving the cursor and sending information to the processor. One hell of a subject since the lecturer requires us to mastered each instruction & functions.
One must be able to understand Why, When, Which, What and Where to apply the instruction to master the whole subject. Cool? This subject mainly uses Assembly Language like MOV, XCHD, SWAP, RR and more. We learned how to program the 8051 (Micro.c chip developed by Intel) for various applications such as the Universal Countdown Timer, Sensor Detector, and more. 4/7 questions in the finals are real applications which is abt 20marks each? Believe it?! Haha!
Pembantu Pelajar Minggu SuaiKenal (PPMS)
The moment I step into this camp on the 1st day, I felt so grateful and thankful. Why is that so? Mainly because of the food, toilet and all...close to 3 stars. We had clean water to bath and drink. We had so much food to cook, that the supplies were enough to lasts for about a week. What a blessing! Thank God! This camp emphasizes on Team Building since all of us have to work together to conduct the orientation for the next intake. Activities include self-cooking, obstacle course, water confident, and more. Our Student Council was great as well, as all activities went smooth sailing all the way. Good job! Overall, I would give a 9/10 rating for this PPMS camp phase 2. Perfect~~

Looks delicious? Yes it does!
All of us
The night before I left UniMAP haha
Let's go home boys!
