Food Trip...

I ate a LOT yesterday that my stomach is started to feel bad when I got home...

Anyways, here's my day yesterday...
As usual, I had my whole day class from 730 am to 8 pm...

I was supposed to have a presentation in my first class which is semiconductor materials and processes...
But it was postponed...
I'm quite happy about it...
I was prepared but still a bit nervous...
Besides, while we were discussing the introduction about packaging, I found out that I made some mistakes in my research so I have to revise it...
I still have a week to prepare for it...
Aside from the presentation, we'll be having a role playing next meeting...
Our professor showed us one of the problems encountered during IC packaging...
It's a package wherein the substrate is folded, then a folding adhesive is put in between the molding compound and the substrate to keep them together...
(Sorry, maybe you don't have any idea what I'm talking about)
So the problem is the folding adhesive bloated and resulted into delamination...
The question is who's fault is it or which part of the process caused the delamination...
In short, what went wrong...
We were assigned roles to play like process engineers, molding process engineers, materials engineers, solder balls engineers, etc...
And I was given the role of team leader...
My classmates were fussing about why I got the easiest job...
That I didn't need to research about the problem...
Which is really not the case...
I have the hardest job...
I have to determine the real cause of the problem...
I have to combine all their thoughts and theories and resolve the problem...
They just don't get it...
The whole team is my responsibility...

For my second class, our professor arrived very late...
At last, we had a laboratory for the first time...
Unfortunately, the lab is so small that all 6 of us won't fit in it...
So, our professor split the class...
She asked for 3 persons who wants to do it first...
So me, Matthew and Dexter went...
The experiment is about producing nanofibers using electrospinning...
First, we prepared the materials...
The raw material is polycarbonate...
We dissolved it in a solvent which is dichloromethane...
There are only 2 available stirring rods so Dexter had to sit out the experiment...
After everything has been dissolved, a ceramic material called montmorillonite was put in it to become a composite material...
Then, the solution was put into a syringe and into the electrospinning equipment...
After, a high voltage was put into the syringe, nanofiber started spraying from the syringe...
And we managed to make nanofibers with 2 different ceramic material concentrations...
We were supposed to analyze the nanofibers using the Mic-D but there's no time left...
So we just have to continue next meeting...
That was the first time I had so much fun in that subject...
I'm looking forward to next week's experiment...

We extended 30 minute for the experiment so we were late for our next class...
Good thing our professor was cool with it...
We just had discussion which was so boring...
The only times we felt alive is when our professor is writing on the board and we're chatting behind his back...
I'll talk about those times later...
We had to finish two modules in that class because we have to catch up...
He was absent last meeting so we were already behind the schedule...
No matter how our professor explains, I can't understand and absorb anything...
I just pretended to listen while practicing hiragana at the back of my notes...
Our professor seemed to notice that we were already tired and hungry so he gave us a 15 minute break...
Just enough to buy food...
Then we went back to our room and finished the lecture by 8 pm...

Let's go the main topic which is food...
Like what I said earlier, I ate a lot...
In my first class, I bought a ham and cheese, and bacon and egg sandwich...
I was really feeling hungry that time so I bought two...
However, they had a promo of Buy 1 take 1...
In the end, I had 3 sandwiches, one ham and cheese, and 2 bacon and egg...
I ate two, one of each flavor, and kept the other bacon and egg sandwich...

For lunch, I ate beef teriyaki...
Our professor was late for our class so we decided to look at the food stalls in school...
It was the last day of the event and the last day for the food stalls...
I wanted to eat something sweet and cold, so I went for the ice monster booth...
It was expensive...
80 pesos for a small cup of crushed ice with some syrup?!
So we crossed it out in our choices...
And settled for the ice cream shop beside it...
I bought strawberry, double dutch and chocolate for just 30 pesos...
It was a locally made ice cream and it was delicious...
Not to mention cheap too...
The ice cream scoop was big too...
After eating ice cream, Lean asked if I want to try crispy chicken skin...
I haven't tasted it yet so we bought it...
It was delicious especially when dipped in the special vinegar sauce...
My mom is so gonna be mad if she knew I ate that...
It's bad for the health because it has a lot of cholesterol...
So let's keep it a secret, ne?^_^...
We shared it with the other guys and they liked it too...
So Christian bought another one and shared it with us too...
While eating that, Christian kept on ranting on how much he wants to eat shawarma but he's full already...
He keeps on going back and forth from where we're sitting and to the shawarma food stall...
If you want to eat it so badly, then just go and buy it!!!
In the end, he didn't bought it...

His simple dream was fulfilled when we had our break in our last class...
Christian, Matthew and Don-don bought shawarma...
It's already dinner time so I was hungry...
So I bought beef flavored rice in a box which fits 1 and a half cup of rice...
Me and Lean shared it but still didn't managed to finish it...
So I just took it home...

My parents arrived in school around 7 pm to pick me up...
So they waited for an hour cause we were dismissed around 8...
They haven't had their dinner yet so we ate at a chinese restaurant...
I ordered beef wanton noodles and sharksfin siomai...
Again, another big serving...

All in all, for the whole day...
I ate 2 sandwiches, beef teriyaki, 3 scoops of ice cream, 2 orders of crispy chicken skin, rice in a box, beef wanton noodles and sharksfin siomai...
Isn't that a lot?
I'm on a diet but I guess it can't be helped...
Saturdays is the only day I get to eat much...^_^

I also said earlier about how we chatted all day...
Don-don did not attended our first class so we were quiet...
Our professor for the second class is very late so we chatted a lot...
The topic was about drinks...
I don't know much about the drinks offered in bars cause I haven't bee there...
I 've only tastes the alcoholic drinks we have at home...
Speaking of bars, Don-don was talking about the time they went to a gay bar...
We were laughing so hard at his story...
He swore he's never going back in those kinds of places...

During our last class, we also had small chats...
There were two times we laughed so hard...
First, about the air conditon...
It suddenly stopped so we had the guard look at it...
When the guard arrived, he was holding 2 remote controls...
He kept on pushing the buttons on the first remote control and still nothing happened...
Our professor was kinda getting annoyed and the two of them started fighting about it...
When nothing still happened, the guard took out the second remote control, pushed a button and the air condition worked again...
WTH???!!!
They were even fighting for the first remote control which is not the right one!...
Their reactions were so funny...
We were laughing so hard that we can't stop...
The second time was when we were talking about Dexter...
I can't remember properly but Christian was talking about Dexter...
Then,I commented that Dexter even told us he was a hearthrob in his high school...
And we burst into laughing...
Dexter really likes to raise himself...

That was my day yesterday...
Another long post*sighs*
I hope you don't get tired of this kind of posts...
I just want to remember all the memories I had...
Ja...
