Hello monkey.
Monkey here welcoming another Monkey to USM. Kekeke...

From my experience, everything is inside the surat tawaran. And I received mine like few days before registration day.
Good Luck!!

Hehe... Joey's lurking here.

I'll see all of you USM peeps in Sept. That if you all organize yum cha session.
Industrial training period so long ._.

So fast fast go back study lor... enjoy studying while you can. Because now I know exactly why people say that studying is better than working.

You'll experience it yourself next year.

Computer Sciences...

My current situation is the other way round. Studying is more stressful than me working now, but without the stress, I think I've lost all the excitement in life.

My internship is a requirement... and it's for 20 weeks. Some interns here are in their final week now, while I haven't even reach half of my internship period.

OMG Duckies!!
How many people in Comp Science this year?
Heard it's less than 50, is it true?

You'll be my junior. Muahahahaha!!

They said the same thing to us...
>_> Must be Mr. Azam

You'll be the lucky people to take comp sc for 4 years. I think it'll be less burden for you guys. But with the additional math courses... I can't say much.
Comp Sc students in USM are famous for being one of the busiest creatures. So brace yourself for one heck of a ride, and enjoy the assignments >=)

Wait till you get access to the labs in Comp Sc school
But now the fever is on L4D.

They're very proud of it. And that's the only excuse given for everything ever since they were granted the status.

Eat out. At some places, the prices are even cheaper than the cafe in RST.

>_> Bad Joey!
You always go back late...

Happy studying people. All the best for your first day.

Must be that mixed rice stall in Saujana cafe. I've never ate that stall since they charged me RM2 for vege only. Yes, vege only, no rice, no nothing.

Duckies, be prepared to hear about your first programming assignment tomorrow. Well... not really programming though.

I thought labs don't usually start till 2nd or 3rd week?

Somehow, I realised that you guys have an incredible number of cancelled classes for the first 2 days. So what's next? Just skip all classes.

Duckies, I'm a celcom broadband user, also because cannot tahan the wifi. Connection is fine, but slow, very much as expected. It also depends on where your room is facing in the hostel.

Do you use streamyx at home? Can add in celcom bb at a very much cheaper rate.

Before it leaves the scar, it'll sting so bad, becomes red and itchy. Just don't scratch it, otherwise the scar will be really bad.
More or less like chicken pox, scratch more, scars more.

Go read up more about the rove beetle aka Charlie. =)

I'm not subscribed to any of those normal packages.
It's called the home hop away package where you add in celcom bb on top of streamyx at RM108. So for example my streamyx is RM88, I only add RM20 for celcom bb. This is only for the 384kbps, no promo for the 3.6M. You'll have to go register at celcom branches. But here's the catch, your streamyx contract will be renewed, meaning that'll be another 1.5 years contract.

Speeds are not great, but very usable. It has helped me very well for the past year. Really appreciate that I don't have to be staying in lab to do my assignments. Still depends on where you room is located. I cannot say 100% that you'll get good connection, but the best rooms are those which are facing the campus. One way to find out is to get a friend who uses 013 or 019 and a 3G phone to check the reception in your room.

WEI!!!!! You never gave me taxi service!!!

Duckies... walk to school.
Always wanna have a car in Penang. Can go jalan-jalan cari makan.

Hey... heard you all got Interaction day last weekend. How was it?
