251108; i'm back

i hate catia. i seriously find it meaningless to assess us on catia when,

1. we don't have the program at home
2. the school cannot afford to provide us with the program because it costs over a thousand dollars
3. "download torrent one la". yes, anybody could have thought of that, but please, downloading that kinda stuff IS ILLEGAL, and i suppose teachers are smart enough to know that, RIGHT?
4. "FREEEEE access, go for it!" fuck, it's free access, but most of the time we cannot book the workstations because there are lessons going on! wonderful indeed.

next, i strongly believe it's time for sp to reconsider improving some of the facilities in campus. take the field near foodcourt 5 for example. it's not even fucking green anymore. there are brown mud patches all over. when it rains, these patches collect water and if you decide to play soccer there, i tell you, you would be better off swimming.

the wireless connectivity. p-a-t-h-e-t-i-c. it takes ever so long just to connect to the wireless network, and on top of that, the speed is downright SLOW. loading youtube's main page can take up to 3-5 minutes. buffering a youtube video? forget it, go play some games you have in your laptop better la.

speaking of laptop, i have no idea why they made the purchase of one compulsory. i seldom use it for school work or admin stuff. my laptop was never meant for gaming but i guess it's place and role in my school life had changed. it has brought me such entertainment and fun (yes, even during lessons). the games that used to lag like shit on my old desktop, i could now play them smoothly (or rather, quite smoothly) on the laptop. and fuck, why do hardware prices depreciate so quickly. it cost about a few hundreds less (~$1400) than the price of my laptop (~$1800) and the specs are sooo much better than the high-end model they offered in my enrolment year (fyi, my model is the low-end one, the high-end model cost ~$2100 iirc).

too much rants going on in my thoughts, now it feels good that i have let off abit of steam. lol.
