AVATAR!!

Hello switheart!!

You're waiting for more reports from me, aren't u?? yea,yea, i'm trying to keep you updated from time to time remember.. Okay, I watched AVATAR two days ago!! yes, at Greater Union Wollongong.. It was a regret that I didn't watch that brilliant, luminous movie of the year at IMAX Sydney for the 3-D version. But all in all, the only thing that I can say here that the nearly 3-hour film keep my eyes glued to the screen, and I tried not to miss any single part of the plots and scenes.. Not any!! Care to know more about it?? Don't worry sweetie, I'll share this with u okay..

AVATAR Poster

Zoe Saldana as Neytiri and Sam Worthington as Jake Sully in AVATAR

Alrite, where to begin now...ummm, what I love most about AVATAR is all about the visuals in this pieces was a revolutionary!! You do know James Camerons, don't u? The genius film maker in this whole world industry.. He did it with Terminator series and Titanic and again, he made it with AVATAR!! How can a normal person in this whole world could ever imagine on the things that are gonna happen more than 100years from now?? Me myself can't even think on something brilliant like that and all I can say is WOWW!! I'm not gonna tell you EVERYTHING here since it will take me hours to explain on how exciting it was.. Maybe u can find out more from this summary..

Then, I went back home at midnight and before my sleep time, i made a wish that I could wake up beside Jake Sully at the stunningly beautiful dreamland of Pandora as the heroine.. Well, everybody did that rite!! dreaming on the character as the heroine.. But Sam Worthington in AVATAR is sooo attractive!! Love him!!=))

Gorgeous Sam!! =))

p/s: I would like to watch AVATAR again!!! But this time at IMAX Sydney at Darling Harbour for the 3-D version..somebody bring me there plish!!

Babysitting Baby Adam

Hye dear,

I started to miss Adam now eventho I only spent a couple of hours with him today.. Yeah, babysitting is no too bad after all.. I take it as a practice of a temporary caring for Adam on behalf of Kak Fish & Abg Azeem when they're not around.. I did it just for fun as I'm the one who volunteered to look after him if they need to go somewhere (without bringing him) .. Maybe becoz I really love to play with kids/babies I guess.. Well, as far as I'm concern, babysitting is commonly performed for extra money, stereotypically, but not necessarily, by girls/women.. but it is definitely not me.. I just want to spend some time with a 7-month sweet little creature like Adam..=))

Kak Fish sent him over at quarter before 5pm.. He started off very well-behave and didn't cry at all.. I could even left him play alone with his favorite colorful toys while I was praying and cooking. After a while, he gave me the sleepy sign by demanding me to pick him up all the time.. and I didn't even realize that he actually gotten asleep on my shoulder.. Yes, he slept on me!! What a lovely moment that time.. He woke up 1-hour after his peaceful nap and I fed him with the solid foods that have been prepared by Kak Fish.. We play, play and play again only until I realize that Kak Fish arrived to pick him up at 8pm.. Owh, look at how fast the time fly whenever we're doing something that we really love but still, I had to wave him good bye..

Adam & Stephanie, the girl next door

Look at how Adam tries to get Stephanie..=))

p/s: Dear Adam, I'd love to have you around again.. eat well, sleep well, grow up well..make your mum proud of you...=))

My result

Look at this switheart..

From this one,

Numerical solution of KdV equation

I need to combine with this one

Analytical higher order KdV bore

And here we go...this is my solution

The elevation of u versus x at t=25

And the coding is this longggggg

Friday blues..

Dear diary,

I know u're sick of listening to my unstoppable complaints about my work at the office.. But I don't care.. pretend that u didn't hear anything okay switheart.. U know tomorrow is Friday rite.. Other people would be dying to wait for Friday to come as it is the last working day on THAT particular week.. But of course the theory is not applicable for me.. Because I need to see my spv at 11am on Fridays!!! Owh, I'm so stressed now.. I wanna see him by bringing something that I can be proud of each week.. I'm very afraid if he ever think that my work/research is not progressing much.. Despite being nervous I know that I should relax and focus.. I always feel like I haven't done anything much and keep telling him the same thing all over again.. n he always said "Don't worry too much Amirah..U're doing alrite and u made a good progress each week..It is always hard at the beginning remember"..(in his super thick Aussie accent).. I'll feel better everytime I come out from his room, somehow I'll feel bad AGAIN, every Thurday..sighss... Okay, back to my assignment for this week.. Remember that I showed you one of the results that I've got last month?? Okay, I need to combine the codings with the other solution that I've got when I first arrived 5months ago.. I thought combining both codes will be as easy as ABC but I was totally wrong!! It took me nearly a month to solve them and yet, I don't think that what I've got now will satisfy the one that Tim wants.. we'll see what he's gonna say during or meeting tomorrow..nervous..nervous..huhu..

p/s: I'll show u my pile of works in the next entry.. as I told u before, if u hate them, just keep ur eyes close okay sweetie.. :p

4th Graduation???

Hello Bestie!!

Will u believe me if I tell you that UOW has now turned into Hogwarts?? Yes, it really is..with all the graduands in blue robe wandered around the campus looking like they just graduated from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.ehehe.. I do feel like I wanna be like them somehow.. bile nak graduate nie??? cepat la siap research... huuu... I can't wait any longer for my 4th convocation...which will probably be held in 2013..huhu..=))

Trust me switheart, you'll always love the moment when you walk confidently on the stage and being honoured as a graduand, with your parents witnessing the momentous event with prouds, and this is also the moment when you can say Goodbye to the student life and say Hello to the new chapter of a great zest of life..

Actually, I was invited by my friend,Wana for her Master's convocation yesterday.. This is the reason why suddenly I feel really excited to celebrate my 4th convocation.. my first convocation is when I graduated from high school, MRSM Beseri in 2002 (1st Nov 2002). Then, I was honoured as a degree holder from UTM Skudai in 18th Oct 2007 which make it as my 2nd convocation. The 3rd one is when I received my Master's Degree in March 2009, also from UTM Skudai.. and now, I'm waiting for the final session..the one that will make me become a Doctor of Phylosophy (PhD) holder.. InsyaAllah.. do pray for me okay sweetie..=)

Here are some photos of me and Wana during her convocation day, 14th Dec 2009..

Unihall

Enjoying the refreshment right after the ceremony..owh, I'm soo in love with the Gloria Jeans Ice Cream..I want more plishh...

Look at Wana..don't u think like she just graduated from Hogwarts?? But I really love the blue robe!!=))

To Wana:

Congratulation!!! Bright future is waiting for you ahead.. Lepas ni bole fikir2 utk sambung PhD pulak ye!!=))

La Trobe VS RMIT

Hye dear,

You know that it is not my routine to check my official UOW webmail on weekends rite.. Coz I know nobody will be at the office to send all those "important" mails.. But I felt like to do so just now.. and the moment when I checked my inbox, I was very surprised to see 2 new emails from Tim (my spv).. They had to be something really important otherwise he won't contact me during weekends and that made me really anxious to check on them..Guess what are the contents?? Summer course during summer holiday..uwaaaa!!!

What makes thing become harder is, not only one course will be offered but two!!yes, two courses in January n February.. Becoz of the short notice, I decided to choose only one of them.. Hmmm, there are pros n conts for both of the courses..I'll make a proper list so that you can help me to figure out on which one is the best for me..thank you switheart!!=))

Course 1: AMSI Summer School 2010
http://www.latrobe.edu.au/mathstats/summerschool/index.html

Date: 11th January-5th February (1-month)
Place: La Trobe University, Bundoora, Victoria
Pros: There are 2 subjects that I'm interested to take which will broaden my mathematical foundations and extend my knowledge in appropriate areas of my research.
Conts: 1-month???? (don't u think that's too long????)

Course 2: Mathematics and Statistics-in-Industry Study Group
http://www.rmit.edu.au/browse;ID=uk2z9vrr2f4b

Date: 7th February- 12th February 2009 (1-week)
Place: Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), Melbourne
Pros: This workshop brings together leading mathematicians from universities, the public and the private sector from across Australia and around the world to tackle complex technical problems facing Australian businesses and industry.
Conts: I'm going back to Malaysia on 8th Feb!!! If I want to join this course, I need to re-arrange my AirAsia flight from 8th Feb to 12th Feb..This will probably shorten the length of my holiday in Malaysia..:-(

I'm soo confused now.. I'd love to join both of the courses but I know I cant.. What I can do now is, I need to go to the main office first thing in the morning tomorrow and make confirmation regarding the registration fees.. Then only I can decide.. hurmm...

Mount Keira Lookout

Dear diary,

Before you ask, yes, I have something interesting to tell you AGAIN..hehe.. This time I went to Mount Keira which lies 4 kilometres northwest of the Wollongong city..Actually, it is just behind my Uni but I only reached there after 5 months here.. Owh, I would like to highlight earlier that we went up there by car which was only 15mins ride compared to 1.5hours of hill climbing.. Yeah, u should expect something thrill and adventurous unless if u go up there by car..not even a drop of sweat needed..:p

Have fun looking at the pictures below yea!!

Look!!the sky and the ocean look like one..

Jingle Bell..Jingle Bell..

I came to the office just now, keep changing my programming codes for one hour (but still, the desired solution is wayyyy from the one that I've got just now) then suddenly I feel like I wanna make some lists on what to buy during Boxing Day on 26th December..yeehaaa!!! kalau suruh buat programming muka x manis memanjang, bila ckp nak buat shopping list laju jek..ish3..but what to do, I believe everybody is like that..same goes to u rite sweetie..:p

Princess from Vera Wang

Jeans: Budget AUD100-150

p/s: Kempen berjimat cermat sebelum n selepas Boxing Day telah bermula..nak shopping punya pasai..adehhh..

Blacky Dearest

Dear Diary,

It is 11.10pm now..and there is still no sign for me to sleep yet.. I keep thinking on something for the whole day today.. Perhaps i miss something..hmmm, many things literally..but I keep on thinking about my Blacky over and over again today..

How's his condition? Is the engine works as good as what I left just before I flew here? Is he shines handsomely as he always does? Did somebody send him to the workshop for his regular service on the correct time?? There are soo many things on my mind about him now.. Damn, I know that I miss him soo badly, terribly!!

Owh, I know you don't understand what the heck that I'm talking about now.. Who's Blacky? What does he means to me? Okay dearie, for your information i have him longgg before i have u in my life.. Sorry for not telling u earlier but there he is.. the love of my life.. You have to accept the fact that there's some'thing' else who is close (really2 close) to me apart from you.. But it doesn't mean that i don't love you okay sweetie.. You're the closest now as i feel like I always need to share with you EVERYTHING about me and my life here in the Land Down Under..

Okay, Blacky is my car.. Yes, my very first, my own car.. I had him since 26 Dec 2007 and up until now he has been with me for almost 2 years.. OMG, this means that he's going to celebrate his 2nd birthday soon.. Owh, poor you my dear Blacky.. I'm not going to be there for u on your birthday.. I can't send you to your favourite carwash to clean u up and buy new fragrance for u.. You gotta be alone this year baby..and maybe for another 3 years to come.. I'm soo sorry about this.. Be strong okay coz I'll definitely love u more eventho we're far apart..

Me and my Blacky at Restoran Jejantas Ayer Keroh on our back from JB to Penang

Me and him at Tanjung Balau, Kota Tinggi

p/s: Look at both of the above pictures.. Can't you see how much I differ.. Goshh!! Am I that thin before this or am I this fat rite now?? but who cares.. I love being myself.. and you love the way i am too rite?? I know you did..***Hugssssss***

Another interesting weekend

Hello bestfriend!!

Sorry for deserting you away for about 4days sweetie..I had a real busy+full+exciting weekend til I dun have time to even sneak a quick look on u.. But it doesn't mean that u're thrown out of my life coz now I'm gonna share everything with u on the things that I've done for the last 2 days..This gonna be a longgg one.. Ready to hear everything now??? Good boy dearie..=))

Ok, let me start with Saturday.. Woke up around 8am and as usual, I did all the bibik's chores.. Went out to the fruit market, Aldi, Vina, Dom Phuong, and Warrawong to get some groceries.. Emm, not forgetting 2 new dresses..hehe.. Actually, I and laili decided to cook Bihun Soup and we invited our friends from Gundi to come and eat with us.. The Bihun Soup project turned out soooo well and we managed to cook 3kilos of beef and finished it up within 1 day..phewww!!now I have extra storage inside my freezer.. At night, we invited Rauf and Ilyas for dinner and we spent a few hours playing card while watching Titanic until midnight..That's how my Saturday ends..a very busy one..

Then, on Sunday morning, I woke up at 9am (coz I slept at 3am on Saturday nite) and ate the breakfast that have been prepared by Laili, nasik lemak before both of us decided to go to the beach..the weather was very fine and it was a perfect day to play with the water and lay on the golden sandy beach..just like what the tourist usually did..teeheee..We never knew that this could be a real great fun and made our mind up to do it again next time..weeehooo!!

Sebelum terjun dlm air..hehe..

We spent a few hours at the beach (smpai i rasa kulit dah tukar kaler jd udang bakar), then we went back home feeling tired, exhausted and of course lapar gilaaaa!! I slept right after having my lunch and I woke up two hours after that..fuhhh..penat main air la tu..

The night before Rauf n Ilyas told us that there's going to be Eid celebration with fireworks at the lighthouse on Sunday nite and we decided to go together.. i thought there'll be makan2 free there.. rupa2nya xde..really frustrating..hehehe..luckily the fireworks show was really amazing..okay,okay, dun be mad sweetie..I'll share with u the video taken during the show owkay..

That's how 2 days in my life have been filled with interesting things.. Got to get back on the track after this..focusing on my research so that I can have fun again in the next wekend..=))

SyncMaster2333

Dear diary,

Today I'm writing while proudly looking at my new, good-looking, gigantic, wide screen computer at my office.. Samsung SyncMaster 2333sw..It comes together with a new processor as well..these new gadgets will definitely make my simulations become faster.. I've tested it just now.. The previous computer took about 300seconds to solve my simple code but with this new operating machine, it took me only 50seconds to solve exactly the same problem..Woww!! What a huge different..Thank you to the support team for this new computer.. No more reasons like slow, noisy computer anymore after this..=)

My new widescreen LCD monitor, Samsung SyncMaster 2333sw

(photo courtesy from http://www.samsung.com.au/)

It's good if I can watch movie at the office with this new monitor..segala lubang hidung orang bole npk.hehehe..But of course I can't..sighs.. There are 4 other PhD students inside this workspace.. How can I do something "interesting" like that while the others are busy with their heads-down concentrating on their research..owh, this is the real life of PhD student that I never imagine before.. Seems like I'm the only one who is "busy" with social-networking like Facebooking, Intant-messaging, etc..etc... Get back on the track dear Amirah.. You know why u're here rite... *Insaf mode*

Get to know yourself better

Dear diary,

I did a personality test which was taken from http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx just now..hmm, I did it just for fun!!! It could be true..not everything,at least some is.. Care to know me better?? Check it out!!=))

Your view on yourself:
You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you. TRUE

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

COMPLETELY TRUE

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

VERY TRUE

The seriousness of your love:
You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love. COMPLETELY TRUE

Your views on education:
You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.

NOT REALLY TRUE

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

VERY TRUE

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

INSYAALLAH

What are you most afraid of:
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

NOT REALLY TRUE

Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

MAYBE TRUE MAYBE NOT
