An Attack of Laziness
Weeeeeeee... 20 problems to be solved for thermodynamics which is due on Wednesday and here I am typing.. Hehehe..
I also have a presentation for my english class tomorrow and up to now I still don't have visual aids or something.. Well.. I think I can still manage.. I strongly believe that I can.. Hehehehe

Here I am in the library trying to study for my quiz in fluid mechanics however our school library is like the noisiest library in the world. I can't concentrate. It seems that mapuans are ignorant what a library is. Sigh..
The librarians don't even care about the noise generated by the students.. How will I ever get to study in this noise-filled place.

Me and my colleagues at mapua robotics have been designing and fabricating the MAC for quite a time already. We've been conceptualizing it for about 7 months now and yesterday we unveiled our first most efficient prototype.
The MAC started with an all wood body and evolved into a bomb disposing celebrity yesterday. Its media appeal was so great that I was literally blinded by all the flashes yesterday at glorietta and it was a great feeling.
MAC is a remote controlled robot with the ability to see its surroundings and transmit its vision to it's operator. Cameras placed on strategic locations on its body enables the operator to see four different perspectives which enables him to navigate MAC and identify the location of explosives. There are two major parts of the robot; the mobile body, and the robotic arm. The hardest and trickiest part is designing the robotic arm but thanks to the perseverance of Jaylord Jauod, the arm worked.
In my own opinion, as a fabricator of MAC (I did not design anything on MAC but Jaylord is the ultimate designer and fabricator). MAC is just a product of basic engineering knowledge. There is nothing so complicated about it but its impact and signifince is so great which makes it a great robot. With proper funding, laboratory, equipment, knowledge and passion I believe we can still do greater things. MAC is just a beginning of endless possibilities.
As president of our organization, I am now thinking of building another mobile robot platform which can not only do one thing but multiple tasks as well.
Unfortunately, the funding is on us so help us God. Hehehe.

My First Blog Entry For Year 2008
Guess what? It has been one year and one week since my last blog entry. Well, I think I'm really quite busy with life and I don't get the time and passion to blog. However, these past few weeks I'm quite emotional but I just can't express it verbally hence here I am tapping on my iphone screen and letting go a little bit of emotion build-up.
I live a satisfactory life. Everything is fair and sometimes even good. Until.. I fell.. For someone so wrong.. Someone who is already committed and it's hard and painful in my part. Well, that's why I'm so cheesy these days and I don't want to go into details because I don't want to sound cheesy to my readers(if I have one).
But overall I'm doing good.
Just keep reading my future entries and somehow you'll understand.
I'll post pictures of me and my adventures as well as entries about my daily life. Thanks to mobile blogging I can now do it on my cellphone so I hope I'll be able to post everyday.
