ISYS100MQ- today at macquarie uni


This is the video we made at our university- Macquarie Uni, the place where we spend most of our days...
This is just a small clip of what we with our precious time at uni. 

As most people think most of our time is spent seriously, attending lectures, in tutorials and studying in the library in the spare time.

It is not necessarily always that way, we have a lot of other missions at uni, finding parking usually the worst, then we have to try and stay focused in class and break times are usually the most fun and after all the hard work of the day while attempting to study is trying to stay awake!

Mother's Day idea

While researching for the perfect present for mum for mother's day I came across the Mother's Day research appeal by the Breast Cancer Institute of Australia.

I decided to support our Mother’s Day Research Appeal and make my gift a gift for breast cancer research. I also have a beautiful Mother’s Day card to give to my mum or someone special which acknowledges your donation to breast cancer research.

After all, wouldn’t "a world without breast cancer" be the best Mother’s Day gift of all?

Donations can be made online, over the phone, by fax or mail via a donation slip found on the website. The Mother’s Day card has space inside the card for you to write a personalised message.

Every donation, large or small, plays an integral part in our research progress.

Best manga I've ever read.

I came across a manga website today and I decided that I will make a list of ten mangas that I think are the best that I’ve ever read.
1.       Dragon Ball: this is the first manga that I read and it was one of my favourite of all time, this manga has a fantasy, sci-fi genre that attracted lots of readers.

2.
       Kattobi Itto: the second manga that I read after dragon ball, one of the funniest manga I have ever seen.
3.
        Case Closed (Detective Conan): this manga is a detective fiction that shows the process of reveal the crime and the offender, very addictive manga.
4.
       Beelzebub: this manga has the randomness that will make you laugh till your jaw fall out of your face.
5.
       One Piece: a very popular manga about pirates who want to obtain fame, wealth and power.
6.
       Naruto: this manga is popular like One Piece. It has been turned into anime and games that a lot of people know about.
7.
       Bleach: this manga is in the same magazine as Naruto and One Piece. Very well made manga for those who like fantasy that mix in real life.
8.
       Fairy Tail: a fantasy manga about magic, well draw manga and very funny as well
9.
       Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: similar manga to One Piece, Naruto and Bleach. It’s about friendship and struggle to power.
10.
   Bloody Monday: very thrilling manga that mix technology and psychological fight between the good and evil.

NBA Playoffs Boston Celtics vs New York Knicks

Final Score: Boston 4 - 0 New York
Game 1: Knicks 85 - 87 Celtics
Game 2: Knicks 93 - 96 Celtics
Game 3: Celtics 113 - 96 Knicks
Game 4: Celtics 101 - 89 Knicks


The only sweep of the 2011 NBA Playoffs, the Celtics blew the Knicks out at Madison Square Garden after 2 close games in Boston.

Pretty tough result for the Knicks especially after their blockbuster trade before the deadline acquiring Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups from Denver.

Fast and Furious 5

Today I watched the new release Fast and Furiours 5. It is the fifth sequal in the Fast and Furious series consisting of street racing action film. The movie was only released on 20th April and has been a huge hit everywhere.

Fast and Furious 5 has the same adrenaline rush as the original Fast and Furious. Ditching the tacky CGI car chases of the last sequel, this sequal is packed with jaw-dropping action and unexpected twists.

This movie is big, rounding up all the series' lead characters including Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker), Mia (Jordana Brewster), Tej (Ludacris), Vince (Matt Schulze) Roman (Tyrese Gibson) and Han (Sung Kang). Yes that's right, Han — meaning this sequel takes place before the events of Tokyo Drift.

Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel at his best) resides in Rio de Janeiro, calling upon the gang for one final, Ocean's 11-style heist: taking $100 million in cash from a highly secure police station. As one character puts it: "This mission just went from Mission Impossible to Mission In-Freaken-Sanity."

The stakes are higher and so are the skirts in Fast & Furious 5, which shows off Rio's stunning locales and bodies (case in point: the drop-dead gorgeous Gisele, played by Gal Gadot).

Also making an appearance as the head of the task force entrusted to bring down Toretto, Dwayne Johnson brings a whole new meaning to built-like-a-machine — and seriously challenges Diesel's alpha-male status.

The final chase is epic; at one screening the audience broke the silence with all-out applause. And if you stick around during the credits, your patience will be rewarded.

Fast and Furious 5 is a must see!!

One hell of a match.

I just won in a soccer match and get into the final today. The match was breath taking and very exciting. I scored twice in the match and get my team to the final. The opposition open the score in the early of the game. Though it was hard for us to attack as they had a solid defend, we still manage to get an equalizer in the last minute of the first half. After the break, we managed to push the opposition to their half of the field, at the 89th minute, the midfielder of my team go through two players of the opponent team and go forward, I saw the opportunity and go through the defend, just before I got into offside position, the midfielder made a through ball past the defend and let me take the keeper one on one. Without hesitation, I lob the ball past the upper body of the keeper and went to the right corner of the pole of the goal. And GOAL!!!!!! The stadium went crazy. We scored and now we are in the final.

HAHAHAHA! As if I can run for 90 minutes.
