rebuild SPINOBOT: I

I have been working on this since 2 weeks ago. From getting the materials and figuring how to do it, with the help from Nicholas, back from Sydney for 2 weeks holidays, fated to catch him to help :P The only Electronic Engineer guy that I can count on that will not reject me.

WHAT? Even that I have to DIY. The soldering gun does not come with the plug!

wasn't too hard at all. everyone can do that.

the soldering gun

innocent internal circuit board from the keyboard that i broke. laying on top of that key matrix that takes me forever to understand. like a maze game, which very much testing on my eyes sight power and patient.

attached to the computer. NUMLOCK is on.

took me 5 hours to get those wires soldered. but not getting many right circuit to the ideal keys - the navigation keys.

sorry I melt it with that soldering gun. Meanwhile I burnt my skin too. You don't want to see that.

What I do.

Some of my friends wonder what i do during the weekend. I would say I go for practice, when they ask what kind of practice, I would say, "hmmm... dance", afraid that I have to explain more. No, I don't do that now, because I need to let some of them know what is that exactly. I spin flag, we call ourselves flag bearers/twirlers, talking about what we are recently preparing for, is a charity performance in Negeri Seremban, with a marching (music/brass)band and flag bearers ( color guard ). Live music!! and movements. Oh yeah, I just broke an instrument during rehearsal, I was squeezed in between the trombone and a timpani in front of me. Luckily that could be able to put back together. It happened when I was swinging the flag to the back, when I swing it back to the front, it was hooking a piece of the brass instrument thing, the slider, from the player standing behind me, I think I could have hurt his lips too. It was embarrassing.

They are amazing, see those flags? I think they are having bigger flags than ours.

Irondale High School Marching Band. If you realize there are white gun-like items, they are wooden mock rifles, one of those marching band equipments.

closer view with how a flag being twirled.

Besides, in our group Kotekitai, twirlers, we have metal baton as well.


My younger sister twirls that.

I have just started playing flag this year, for age of 15 -2 years ago, I was in another group, additional apparatus for the twirling group - hoop. Adopted from rhythmic gymnastic.

Of course I am no where near that standard.

that's what I practice for during the weekends.

:(

This morning I almost cried... You know me, I mean, tears gleaming in the eyes because of that 12 years old boy, 831 Malaysia Independence Day baby, said that he wants to become an inventor when he grow up. To invent a car that can be controlled with autopilot, so that people who drink and drive will not cause any accidents. ( such a great reason, meaningful sense of purpose ) Will that be another reason for people to practice drink and drive as there is an autopilot car will take them home then beating up wife and kids?
