Hetero-stress experience

I didn’t make the CS 315 (Elementary Computer Graphics w/ OpenGL) midterm examination. Sad, but I have to admit that I am mentally, emotionally and physically disturbed these days. It seems that I am carrying a magnet attracting bad luck. I have turned out restless and confused with almost eveything. From waking up to lying down, I don’t know what to do, I don’t know how to start my day. This is the dullest day of my life.


Stress, pressure. Some thrive on it, others find the spotlight and the responsibility to be too much for them. It distracts and scares them. The fear translates in to a physical stiffness. Mentally they become less focused and more self-conscious. Thus, their performance deteriorates.

Moving on

So I bought my self a 2.5″ hard drive enclosure for about 750 bucks. I wish I have my own tools for constructing a device as such. Instead of going for a 2GB USB flash drive, I chose to salvage the 30GB hard drive of an incapacitated laptop. Cool isn’t it? Though relatively slower than a typical USB flash drive, the storage capacity outweighs it. [To God] Thanks for being there always.

Bin to hex converter in 16-bit DOS assembly

Just a quick code like putting your keyboard where your brain is. There should be another way of doing this. I hate this code. start: xor al, al xor bl, bl xor cl, cl mov dl, 4 ; use dl as counter input: mov ah, 00 int 16h cmp ah, 1ch je exit cmp al, '0' jb input cmp al, '1' ja input convert: mov cl, dl dec cl ; dl - 1 sub al, 30h ; get original value shl al, cl ; place in the appropriate bit position or bl, al ; save in bl dec dl ; prepare for the next bit jnz input ; must be 4 bits cmp bl, 9 ja letter jbe number letter: add bl, 37h ; because 'A' - 37h is 0Ah jmp here number: add bl, 30h ; because '0' - 30h is 00h here: call display jmp start display: mov ah, 02h ...
