What a shame

'A homecoming parade will be held for Manchester United if the club wins the Champions League final, 24 hours after the game takes place.' BBC News Wednesday, 13 May 2009 14:30 UK

I was hoping to join the parade to Old Trafford on Thursday, to see the 'red sea'. What a disappointment. 2-0 was not what I was expecting, a bit embarrassing. Before the Champions League final, I heard that many will come to Manchester to celebrate if Manchester United won. So I guess I am not the only one who was disappointed.

The headlines in newpapers were 'Manchester United's dream had a Messi End' and 'A Messi Ending'. All about Lionel Messi. Undeniably, he's a great footballer. Christiano Ronaldo was not performing at all that day. Even Sir Alex Ferguson admitted that Barcelona was the better side that night. What a distressing scene it was when the Manchester United team went up the podium to receive their medals, especially when the team members and the supporters showed the face of despair.

Anyway, it's good enough to be able to get to the final.

Being in Manchester, I can always feel the mood and excitement when Manchester United is going to play in any match. On the streets, there will always be people wearing the RED RED jersey whenever there is a match. I even saw people wearing the red jersey to EXAM!

Which team do I support? Manchester United of course! Because I am in Manchester, and they are good players! (but I don't know much about football).

People call him the 'human ipod'.











I wonder how God create human, especially our brain.

1st Year Design Project

Finally the design project had come to an end. From last Tuesday to this Thursday, from 9am to 5pm everyday apart from Wednesday and Friday, and a quiz on Friday required much brainwork and we all felt exhausted at the end of the day.

We were required to design and build a plant to produce benzoic acid. I was in a huge group with 15 people initially. Then 3 were told to join other groups as 12 people was the maximum. New worksheets given everyday, papers started piling up on the desks, people began to complain, tired faces started to appear....



We had to design reactors, cooler condenser, condenser, reboiler, cooler, solidification drum, decanter, reflux drum. From mass balance to energy balance, from the dimensions to the cost of every single item, to the pipes, pumps, cost of building the plant, facilities, contractor fee, security, wage.............................. We were all so astonished to see even one reactor would cost 170000 pounds.

Finally, it's done. And the break even point is between 9 to 10 years.. We would be 'seriously in debt' for the first 4 years. They told us that was normal.

What's next? Exam!
