Aerospace

I got out of bed (more of the mattress, since I slept at the living room) to a not-so-happy start as Germany lost to Italy in the EURO 2012 tournament that day.  Heck, they played badly which added to the disappointment.   

But enough of that griping.  Today was about spending time with my engineering-major-or-somehow-inclined friends for the Aerospace Festival 2012 at Malaya University (UM).  We all gathered at campus first and headed out in Yu Liang's Estima, since the 8 of us can cram into one car.  The jam was bad and we were baking under the immense afternoon heat at the Federal Highway.  But after an hour, we made it.

To be fair, I was half-expecting it to be a grand thing, and half-expecting it to be a total flop.  It was a big-ass flop.  There were only THREE measly, pathetic stalls set up, with most of the space either filled up with brochures, remote-controlled toys, and sleeping personnel, or all at once.  It was sh!t, to be honest.  And we ended up throwing stones in the hot parking lot to blow off some steam.

So in a record time of 10 minutes, we visited the fair and bolted back to campus.  We were largely disappointed, but more pissed.  So we went for some CC time at Rock, playing Left4Dead 2 with a full crew for the first time.  It was incredibly fun and we soon forgot about that one hour of our lives wasted.  All in all, we still found a way to have fun.

Oh, and Gaby introduced this online karaoke game which is http://www.karaokeparty.com/.  And it's really fun as you can compete with random strangers.  It's too bad my internet speed is painfully slow and I timed out from three "battles" already.  Hope the traffic gets better tonight!  I want to have a take at Adele.
