When is Eid?!

I have no idea!
Eid is coming soon. It is going to be either on Saturday or Sunday. I am not sure yet. Some news websites say it is going to be on Saturday, but there are others that claims the date was changed to Sunday 31-12. This has never happened before. I wonder what are the reasons?!!
It doesn't really matter to me. I don't feel like Eid at all. I spend most of the time studying for exams and Eid day will be as any other day. Unfortunately this is going to be my forth Eid away from home in 2 years. How sad :(



Anyhow, wish you all a happy Eid.

Cooooooooold

Finally the first semester is gone. I still have to do the exams though. The first one is going to be on the 15th of June. i have been revising for a week now, and everyday i feel worse than the one before. The reason, i guess, is that i am alone now. All the people in my flat have left and the city is almost empty. Most of the students leave during Christmas holiday.

Anyhow the weather is very bad. It is freezing in here and i got some fever for some reason !!
The fever is killing me. I feel pain in every single bone and the cold makes it even worse. I tried to finish off some study today but i couldn't. I hope i will be better tomorrow and compensate.

I have tried to contact my friends and family members back home but it seems that they are all very busy doing their exams and other stuff. They claim that they can't get online to chat nowadays, therfore i am a bit angry of them. It is really difficult for anyone to live with the stress of study and living away from home. And now i have to deal with beeing left alone as well :( Sometimes i think no one really cares for me, but i know they don't mean it.

I wish you all a merey christmas and have a nice holiday.

Homesick :(

Here I am after a very difficult week in Uni, feeling homesick. I feel really bad and the stress of nearcoming exams makes it even worse. I want to go back home, but I can't. The reason is if I went back I will lose time, that I can use in studying for exams. I hate Uni and the stress it puts me through.

When will i go home again :( ?

New Obsession..... New Reason to Live

For some reason i was never attracted to motorbikes. I always thought of them as unpractical and dangerous machines. In the last few years i started to like them more and more, but i never thought i would want to have one. Even when i tried my brother's motorbike, and experienced the thrill of air blowing against me, i kept my concerns.
Today, and for some unknown reason, i developed an obsession towards motorbikes, Super motorbikes to be precise. The one i fell in love with is the Ducati 1098s. This spectacular looking monster, with it's stunning power has now become a dream of mine.

Though it has only two cylinders it is the most powerful amongst it's competitors, including these Japanese 4 in line. It is also the lightest as well. It only weighs 171 Kg dry, whereas the other bikes are 300-400. The engine produces at least 170 bhp @ 9750 rpm. And with its 12.5 kgm @ 8000rpm ( 90.4 lb-ft for those who don't use SI Units) It is the proud owner of the highest power to weight ratio of any sport bike. This engine is controlled by a 6 speeds gear and for the first time in motorcycles, a set of Brembo brakes. It is also the first to include a full digital screen and a USB data analyser system recording 3.5 hours of ride time. Not to forget the fully adjustable suspension, the aggressive looking head light, and the super sporty twin exchuast.
This beauty gave me a new reason to live, and to work hard. You will definitely see me cruising the roads on this monster one day. Just wait and see !!

10th week !

I can't believe how fast this semester was. I still remember the day i arrived, and that was more than 11 weeks ago. Today is the latest day in week 10, so there are only 2 weeks left, and i will get the Christmas break which will last for 30 days (I hope).

This holiday will be the best chance to do all the work that i have left behind. And it also give me some time to study for exams in mid of January. I wish i have gone through all the models i have to do before, but unfortunately there was always something else to finish off.

In the begining of the year there was Ramadhan. I have almost done nothing then, because i was very tired of fasting. Later in the year, i had to do lots of courseworks. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to do them, and i eventually did. However, amazingly i don't remember anythying of the materials i have been through. probably because i was more focused on doing the work before deadline rather than actually learning. To make the situation even worse, i got the project thing to do. I would say that it is very interesting, but my group isn't very helpful. I will post something about this later, when it's done. ( still working on it). So now i am having a stressful time trying to do all of this stuff in the same time. ( Plenty of Courseworks + Project + Studying for Exams + blogging !! ) lol.

Well, I will leave you there for now. I have to get back to my thermodynamics.
