today was a hard day to wake up.. after spending nearly 12hrs of project work.. we really wanted it to work ytd but it did not.. so we rushed all the things with vicky doin the wiring and i doin the "on the spot" soldering.. stressfull but i <3>
we wanted to impress that ivan _ho_e with our project.. and in the end
TA DA TA DA

full lights on



marked with a sticker ment the led was not working so i had to change later haha

an unlit secondary display
we rushed the lightings and it really made it bright.. but we lost 1 part.. our current drawn from the dc converter is not enought to drive a high resistance load so we use the given dc supply..
the mp3 cant tank the logitech speaker's large current drawn and it gave up and cut its internal circuits and made us think it was spoilt.. we tried it a 2nd time and it was proven correct.. an amplifier was needed and lets get my go-vibe magum now and test it..
ivan ask some basic qns abt our model ( joystick , throttle and mfp) and was quite satisfied with our project.. haha he even help us answer his collegue's qns of "whats the purpose of this".. he jitao tell them it is a learning aide..
had cake to celebrate charlene her birthday at the same time be joyous obt our sucess.. no1 celebrated with her this yr so we were the 1st to celebrate her birthday.. (^_^)V <<>
went home tired but still happy =)
vcc just pm me on msn and she is already awake at 5am US and she will be back next week.. she asked quite a few qns but this one is the most owning one "it does not matter if im there or not" then i put "your heart with us can le " lmao.. seriously her comments are quite good and gives us more choices other than 3 guy's decision..
my dear brother is talking to his gf.. started since monday and its not short calls but long "discussions".. must be one of those whom we saw at mac a few months back.. if not he wont be so shy that time..
