matlab day

tis a boring day, today. i was at home all day reading the matlab manual. sad to say i wasnt as productive as i would have hoped. there were tons of stuff i had to read regarding interpolation through multirate filters. half the time, i don't even know what i'm reading. any matlab gurus who might wanna give me a hand, now would be the time to send me an email=)

i have about 3 weeks left before i am required to submit an interim report and till now my progress has been about as fast as a grandma bouncing uphill on her head. it doesnt really help matters that my supervisor is kinda nonchalant about everything, maybe he thinks i'm really good and have a clear direction of what i'm supposed to do(that is sooo not the case>_<).

well, i've just finished watching the amazing race a while ago. man, i get an adrenaline rush just by seeing the 3 families rushing for time. it was kanchiongness down to the last minute. jerry bruckheimer is one incredible choreographer , i'll give him that. u know, this is about the only reality show i enjoy. Survivor is kinda running out of places to 'survive' in, the bachelor and bachelorette series were full of crap, and the model show? its just an excuse for people(me) to ogle at scantily-clad ladies in provocative poses^_^

Anyhow, i dont really dig the spate of 'contest-like' shows on tv recently. Sure, Project Superstar was kinda cool, but thats cos it was the only one at the time. it dint matter that it was preceded by the Idol thingy, point is, it was THE ONLY ONE at the time. now we have like, what, two at the same time? The waves of success can only be ridden on for so long, then its going to take much more than that to pique our(my) interest. but then again, i'm not much of a tv person, so i guess its not really that big a deal;)
