Wow , Nanotechnology

I joined a competition named First Lego League ( FLL ) recently . The research topic we are given is ' Nanotechnology ' . Let me explain what nanotechnology is , it is a kind of technology which allows us to create thing at a super small scale . ' Nano manufacturing ' is often call ' molecular manufacturing ' , you can imagine that . I myself like to compare nanotechnology with alchemy . Scientist have succeeded in rearranging the position of particles using nanotechnology ( created something else ) , what is the difference with alchemy which (tries to) creates other thing out of something ? Coal can be change to gold . Dirt , water and air can be change to potatoes ( not cooked ) . Sand into computer chip !!!

Something more , I have said that nanotechnology can create thing in a smaller scale and so , 100 million of near perfect efficiency ( very little by products will be produced ) motors can be fitted into a full-stop which is already millions times faster than a rocket . Millions or maybe billions of processors in a computer which means no lag no matter how many things you put in your computer . Cars can fly into space and maybe even faster than light , which means that we may be able to do time travel . According to Albert Einstein's theory , time slows down when we are going nearer to the speed of light and hence I infer that time will reverse when we go faster than the speed to light .

Even more astonishing , we may be able to build things that self replicate by themselves which means we will have maybe endless plates of chicken rice to eat , no need to spend 2 dollars cause they just create themself by , themself !!! We have no exact idea what our future have installed for us but one thing we can be sure , we are going into a world that no one can imagine .

Walking is difficult

It was until this monday , that I realise we should not take things for granted , even something as simple as walking . If you read my previous post , you will know that I somehow injured my leg during the class chalet . My leg have not gotten better , in fact it became worst . I move around by sitting on those chairs that have wheels at the bottom . However , there are some place where they cannot be used such as going to the bathroom . I contracted "toilet-phobia" due to this as I need to jump into the toilet using my left leg and I have fallen down twice .

I even lost a competition which I could have won easily because I cannot go for the competition . Also , I may not be able to go to the class outing on 16th november . I may even be unable to go back to Ipoh ( my grandmother's house , never went back there for 4 to 5 year already ) on the 18th of november . Now my hope is that my leg will heal soon .

Class Chalet

The past few days I have went to the class chalet at Downtown East . I am in the first batch which will meet at 2 p.m. but Zhen Zi was late for 40 minutes which cause some of us to overstay in the MRT ( Mass Rapid Transport ) and we were fined $2 each . We had BBQ that night for dinner and there was some leftover . The others played X-Box till morning and they are so noisy ( i was trying to sleep ) .

We woke up at 5 a.m. the second day ( I slept at 3 a.m. ) to see the sunrise . However , the beach was facing the wrong side and we did not get to see the sunrise . We went to play basketball for a while before going back to the chalet . We went to Escape theme Park at 10 a.m. and played all the way to 2 p.m. The rest went to Wild Wild Wet while Wee Leong , Zhe Zhang , Kang Wei and I went back to the chalet . We played X-Box in the chalet and slept a while later as we were tired ( forgotten to eat lunch ) . We have a " birthday party " that night to celebrate our birthday next year because our class will be split up next year .

The next morning when I woke up , my leg was very numb and it became painful later . Even worst , it became swollen . Thanks to my friends , I was able to get home . Bye 2E4'06 , you are the best .
