Exerpts from 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beijing_Airport'

"Terminal 3 - if considered an airport on its own - would be the largest airport in the world in land size and one of the world's largest in capacity and land size (approximately 986,000 square meters). It is larger than London Heathrow Airport's 5 terminals combined with another 17% to spare."

"One of Terminal 3's highlights is the US$240 million luggage-transfer system. The luggage system is equipped with yellow carts, each of which has a code, matching the bar code on every piece of luggage loaded on it, allowing easy and accurate tracking. More than 200 cameras will be used to monitor activities in the luggage area.

The luggage system can handle 19,200 pieces of luggage per hour. After luggage is checked in at any one of the 292 counters at Terminal 3C, they can be transferred at a speed of ten metres per second. Even for international routes, luggage can travel from T3C to T3E in five minutes. Arriving passengers should be able to begin retrieving their luggage within 4.5 minutes after airplanes are unloaded."

o.O

Air China is based in BCIA T3. Can't wait to be in Beijing~

I think I will wear specs sooner or later..

I was quite slack these few days, as its's a whole 6-day break between the test i just took and will take..

Was watching "I Survived a Japanese Game Show" on YouTube and gawd it's crazy!! All the madness and humiliation.. Especially when the MC niao the Americans by talking Jap to the Jap crowd, and the Americans dunno what he's talking about.. And how the crowd jeered together at the participants and laugh like hell at their flaws...

YouTube was my source of entertainment these days with other shows such as MadTV, Laputa, etc. For MadTV I would like to recommend "inside looking out", a show featuring black-white couples who sing a lot. It's quite very nice!!

*Cheers!

Rain, rain, come again, go away during the day

Its almost 12 midnight, and the rain has stopped..

i like rain during nights cos there will be free air-con

but not during the day cos it will make you all wet, like your face after a maths exam :/
jz kidding

halfway thru the hma paper, the wind suddenly blew and the rain came, providing those in kkh (at least the ones on the righter rows) additional wind to the fans

and while that happens, ~35 mins after commencement of hma paper, He stapled his answers together, while I frantically pull out my hair in an attempt to activate brain cells..

3 more days (spread over 2 weeks) to go!!

"Minds are like parachutes - they only function when open."

i don't have much confidence in chem..
have to bia a lot later
GGRRRRRRRRR!!

*Cheers!

One week of exams

Just had english paper 2 and gosh it was cold!

having rain in the morning is kinda shiok, but having a fan blowing at u directly for almost 2 hours is definitely not

i almost had frozen ears..

budden, its a good thing actually to have a fan blowing at you during the higher sciences, cos afternoons are super hot...

anyway, jiayou for exams :D

*Cheers!

a lot of thoughts...

interested in getting attention?
i got a lot on wednesday...

was doing yue du li jie in the library and here comes a group of people from china (i guess they are parents of the prc scholars)
then, they saw me doing the yue du li jie

here comes: 咦，你在做华文功课勒!
是啊
不错嘛，你的字体很美啊
哈哈，夸奖了
snap snap snap and more than 10 cameras keep flashing away at my yue du li jie
and more than 20 people stood behind me and took more than 5 group photos
then have to put up a forced smile

and
你在家里是讲中文的吗？
是啊。其实我是从马来西亚来的
那你在家里不讲中文？
(WTH)我在马来西亚也有讲华文的

why do people think that since people from china = chinese, people from england = english, therefore people from malaysia = malays? 成何体统！！
and jz because there is majority malays in malaysia does not mean that malaysia does not sell pork!!

孤陋寡闻．．

anyway i pretended reading ihc when the other 'batch' of china people came...

Foon Yew exchange + random thoughts

Speaking chinese with msian-accent during prac.. remeniscence of the psch days..

last year, went to fyhs kulai, but did not manage to see all the faces..
now, dunno why, but somehow can look at all their faces with greater 'detail', in the process seeing a lot of familiar ones..
but cannot remember names..

some faces i can remember from last year's trip,
some faces gives me the impression that i did see them before, like we used to come from the same pri sch band

the one who played the 1st tpt in the brass quintet performance in capriccio
with his golden and perfectly smooth trumpet (T.T) and his super nice tone
OMG

which made me so guilty
i used to think that taking care of a new instru is such a tedious chore
until i looked at their tubas

and i cnt seem to download wall-E with the boarding sch com
<3 the cute robot
