More Fillers

For the past 2 weeks, whenever I logged in, I would stare at this empty space, I would think to myself...

What am I gonna blog about this time?

Staring it for more than 5 minute, still nothing comes out. Eventually minutes turn to hours, and hours to days, and days to weeks. Fortunately, not weeks to months.

Cos this is where I came in (finally!! by annoyed readers)

But... It's not gonna be about Dublin, for I am not fully prepared yet! Paiseh!!

It's just gonna be another filler episode, so if you are not interested already...? Just find the X button.

It's about the new system Uniten is implementing now. From now onwards our students ID card is now embedded with a SMARTchip. So now whenever we want to use the computer lab, we have to swipe our ID on the card reader to gain access into the building.

Sounds neat eh? There's every hint of yeng'ness in it!!

Don't you think that most private institutes have already implemented that techonology for quite some time ago? And now only Uniten started to use this technology. Marvelous! And we are quite reputable for producing Engineering students see?

Tak masuk akal langsung!

With the SMARTID, Uniten is now finding every single part of the faculty that has all the reason to put up the card reader, so that the students would carry their ID cards at all times wherever they go. This is a plus point. Usually students don't bother with the ID cards because it doesn't do anything significant except to show that they are Uniten students, and to borrow library books!

Now, Uniten thinks that security inside is sorta poor, so they have to know who's coming into the Uniten territory is their students or not. Thus...

They put the card reader at the main entrance of Uniten.

Brilliant piece of work...

In their minds, the situation would go like this, students drive car in, stop at the main entrance, takes out his/her ID card, swipes at the card reader *tit tit*, the tiang palang would go up, and the students would rev in with 2 bumps greeting simultaneously!

Sounds like a plan? yes?

NO!!!

This plan has one major drawback : it would create a major traffic havoc while every student and lecturer wants to drive into Uniten. Who knows, the queue might lead up to the Silk Highway, which is definitely not good for other motorists. Plus we've all heard how bad the jam is on the Silk Highway every morning, so it would make matters worse!

Till now, the palang tiang is wide open, and security guards are still roaming around like they are used to to check the motorists that's entering Uniten. Seems that they've realised the plan has backfired after all! XD~

After 1 month in Uniten, I've sustained a right wrist injury from basketball, ter'missed' one quiz because it's raining blardy heavily and I can't get out to my car, spotted a few lui's in Uniten (which I didn't approach XD) and the most important of all.. QUITTED DOTA!

See what staying outside campus has done to me! XD~
