Communications Channel.

Simplex: Can only send data one way.
Duplex: Can send both ways at once.
Half-Duplex: Can send both ways, but only one way at a time.

Q:
If an example of duplex is a cell phone, which both parties can talk and hear at the same time, and an example of half duplex is a walkie-talkie, what is an example of simplex?

Ans:
I can think of two!

1) Singaporean teacher talking to Singaporean student.
2) Recruit Tan Ah Kow, ... ... ... .

hehe~

Anyway, I'm quite surprised that I actually survived this week! And by God's grace, things actually turned out smoother than I expected, even though I fell sick at the start of the week!!! Had 6 assignments due this week which includes 3 lab reports, 3 programming exercises, 1 Stats Hw, and 1 EE hw which also involves programming!!! Damn Damn tired man... I want to watch 独孤求败!!!

After this week, ECE 370 lab is over! After next week ECE 308 lab is over! After the following week, ECE 315 lab and ECE 415 class are over!!! Then I'll be left with ECE 331 (Stats), ECE 353 (Microcontroller) and Econs 101 (Sleeper)! So essentially, Will be left with only 2 classes by the third week!!! Woot!!!

Anyway, will be watching David Copperfield tonight!!! Sihui's bday tickets which include 6 good people to watch with her. Yay!!! :P

***Try dragging me and my friends *** =)

Inspiration Quotes

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!

Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.

Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
