After so long..

Silent

I have been silent for so long right..? Seriously the journey towards the end of Uni life keeps me busy all way long... and the time I am writing this, it is another 6 days to go! Uhh, am so looking forward to it..

My group (and also other groups) has submitted the Final Report that was due last Thursday, 28th May. The five guys in my group stayed back late that night before in the computer cluster at our department to finish the final touch-up with the report, editting and so on, in fact they did not go home that night. Not a nuctural person I am, I got the excuse from the group manager to go back earlier that night with my other girl friend after being asleep for a couple of minutes on the PC desk.

Finally... it's over...

Final Year Project

Today, another Friday has just passed...and this is the second last Friday before the end of the school term.. I went to Wigan today, which is 1 hour journey by car to do the track test for my group electric go-kart Final Year Project. It was supposedly done last Wednesday but due to some technical problems, it has been postponed to a later date that happened to be today.

Last touch-up before leaving to the track

The weather was nice the time we started off from the Uni to the Three Sister track. Getting lost somewhere but finally found the way to the place, we arrived at the track at around 1.30pm, half an hour late from our booking schedule.

Steve was the first person driving the kart. It was such an excitement to me to see this small "baby" of ours finally moving smoothly around the track after so long... yeah, after about 9 months of just working on a stationary kart in the lab. What a joy that really made me so eager to drive it despite of my unconfidence to give it a try at first. (Scared... hehe)

Finally, our "baby" is on the track

Not to miss the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I took the challenge, getting the helmet from my groupmate and sat myself on the seat. Chris took picture of me on the kart before I started off.

Ready to go.

Press the pedal...

and... go!

Accelerating.. hehe

Wow...

I couldn't believe this...

that I was driving an electric go-kart! So smooth and fast....it was a reality..!

I just managed to make 1 lap drive because everyone in my group was also waiting to have a try. Then I gave another go after everyone has done with their turn at which I made another 2 laps... Haven't driven for a long time.. and really, it was such a great satisfaction to drive that kart and to be able to accelerate it until its maximum speed of about 38mph.. not that bad right? =)

It started to rain lightly at around 2.30pm but our excitement was much over that. Having another half an hour to go before the booking ended, we continued driving the kart one by one, taking pictures and videos for the demonstration purposes that scheduled to be next Thurdsay, 11th June. What a great group-day-out. Sorry rain, you were failed to stop us.

Our joy.. (",)

After taking some pictures with the go-kart as the whole group together with the supervisor, Dr Nigel Schofield, we then departed back to the Uni. At last... this awaiting has over.. and the thing I started to notice within myself is, I like to drive and race the go-kart! So smashing! ^^
