WHAT e NICE DAY!

Drowsy Morning
Yes.. as usual i am late.. LAteee latee. This is the best part about my job. Its ok to be late and is ok to leave early. I just need to complete the task assigned by my supervisor. Very flexible job.
Reach lab at 920am and slack till 10am before i start my work. LOL!

Raymond reached at 1015am. He was tasked to do turret punching for his robot and mr wee wanted me to assist him.
We carried the heavy aluminium sheet to the tooling lab. Guess what.. The machine is out of order. LOL! Heng ar.. i was wearing shorts and the aluminium sheet blocked the lower half of my body. The technician din see it.. Need to remember to wear jeans tomorrow. (:

Lunch Break
Best lunch break ever. I left lab at 12pm for a swim. Raymond have to eat alone. PS .. HAHA (:

Swim Workout:
200 warm up
8x25 drills
800 time trial
8x25 drills
3x (50 kick 50 pull 100 swim )
200 warm down
Total Distance: 2600m
Time trial was not bad. Hit another personal best. I remembered my last time trial i did 13:18
This 1 i did 13:08. LOL! Improvement of 10s. Not bad lar. I am still conserving for the time trial. I think if i gave it all out, i can hit a 12:50 timing. Feel great. It was 130pm already. Bathed and went back to lab.


GREAT! Call from the TP corperate com . I think i spelt it wrongly.HAHA! I missed their call. Called back to check. At the sametime i saw this email saying that i am the LKY award WINNER! LOL.. The TP corperate com called for the same purpose. They wanted to have an interview with me .. LOL! SONG! Raymond is the 1st person to learn about this cause he is just beside me. I quickly release the news to my parents hhaha!

After joying for a moment, i went to lunch with wy caine and rennie. We eat till 3pm.LOL.

Total break time: 3 hours (remember i am paid $80 per day :p )
Best job ever...
Fira Robot Project
Back to lab. Finally my project is able to work after much troubleshooting. Problem lies in the sequence of the software being installed. When i switched from the labtop to the PC at the TKK lab, i needed to reinstall the MPLAB to be compatible to the version my project is using.
Here is the problem. I installed MPLAB first and expected the pre-installed C18 complier to be load in to the IDE. WRONG! I need to remove the C18 complier and install the MPLAB and den reinstall the C18 comlier. IDE come fist den complier. AIYO! How can i make this kind of mistake. No wonder the iMoto.lib file cannot be built.
Anyway.. Finally with the sample code.. i managed to modify it and controlled the motor. Now the i am able to do speed control, direction control and start/stop motion. Great!

My next task will be to install software for the RAGCU PC. This will be done tomorrow.

Thats all in the lab. Self proclaim ' PANG GAN' at 520pm. Mr Wee (my sup) wasn't around so can go off early. (:

Wednesday run training
was abit late... Shoot by coach ... but i know she is joking.. haha. Anyway... today did pace workout

Run Workout:
Warmed up 4 rounds the track
Activation drills
Main set: 5km
1st 1km : 10km race pace (stimulate pace after swim exit)
Next 3km: 5km race pace (stimulate pace at peak)
last 1km : 10km race pace (stimulate pace when trying to endure last part of run)
As usual.. we did drills at the end

Pretty good run. Just that i can go abit faster for my 5km pace.
My Splits:
1st 1km: 4:15
2nd 1km: 3:55
3rd 1km: 3:58
4th 1km: 3:59
5th 1km: 4:11

Total Time: 20:18

Total Distance: approximately 6000m

i remembered my splits were 3:55 for the 1km doing at 5km pace. But total time recorded by yong ming was 20:18. So i worked back to roughly get my splits. Maybe is some human errors lar.. My watch is those kind that cannot have many splits.. only 1 memory so i have to stop reset and start. That will take up about 1s.

My last 1km was slowing down yet the pace is faster than my 1st which i am fresh. Coach say i can do faster for the intermediate 3km.

Dinner-ed at Techno... Then.. HOME-ed

Was pretty tired... Gotta rest for tomorrow trainings..

GOod NIte ALL!
