Hiya :D we just all got our PSLE results and yeah u must be thinking well what do i do with it,... i chosen the schools now what. well fear not for zplanetw is here :D [that sounds cheesy] im gona make a tutorial [without pictures] on how to imput the selections u have made.
--------------------
some main things first.
------------------------
beware of the 10minute per page limit, i got it once and i really wanted to smash
my computer to bits :D. what is the 10 minute per page limit? well it is..
they let u fill up the form online on a webpage. if u take for than 10 minutes writing on it and not yet confirm, when u do press confirm they will say error and said u logout already or something like that. and its not 10 minute inactivity its 10 minutes ON THE PAGE. so make sure u fill in everything ON THE PAGE in less than 10 minutes.
--------------
Close all other programs except ur web browser.
trust me this is one thing u dont want to be playing some other game and doing it.:D
----------
make sure ur internet connection is somewhat stable. do it either very early in the morning or very late at night as i have done. thats what i recommend :D did it at 12am -.-..
----------
well now those are done here's how u actually do it.
open ur S1 Option form given to u by ur teacher.
find the pin at the top right of the paper and input it acccordingly to the website
which is at http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/secondary-one-posting/ click submit through S1-IS then u will be redirected to a special page. once there input the pin and NRIC number accordingly. after that press login. duh :D
----
now ur at ANOTHER page :D this is the exciting part, put in everything there :D and renember to do it in 10minutes. i recommend u do it on the physical form first for those who type slow :D and do double check the school code and the phone numbers.
before u start panicking about where to find the school code, u can find it in the big fat blue book the teacher gave us not so long ago. or alternatively u can find out here.http://app.sis.moe.gov.sg/schinfo/SIS_index.asp just put in the school name at the last box and ull see it come out but u have to click the other link too :D the page that looks exackly like the one in our book will be reflected there.
------
imput all the numbers and the phone numbers correctly and double check.
renember to keep track of time must be lest than 10minutes. dont fall for the
"trick"
-
oh yeah there might also be a option asking u if u want to do the 3rd language ..
belive it or not they offered me arabic malay or speical malay . i didnt take any as i think 2 languages are hard enough so i cant really help u guys and gals out about that part.
----
after u have confirmed and enter, if u did it correctly and under 10minutes, u will be redirected to the next page which will ask u to double check again, they will also list out the names of the schools based on the school codes u listed down.
-
if all is correct press done or next or that button and there will be a green tick and a sentence congragulation u that u have successfully sent the application or something like that, there will be options to print the page or save it but the save it option doesnt really work for me so.. i recommend either copying the whole thing and pasting in a notepad or printing it..
---------
thanks for reading my guide good luck in getting the secondary school of ur choice

World Robo Tournament
World Robo Tourmenent
Booyah! i want to D'Marquee @ downtown east with my bunch of schoolmates who are in the robotics club to enter in the robo gladiators competition and little did i know it wouldnt just be a competition, it was nearly a full scale robotics convention!
well it was just awesome being it sponsered by mostly asiasoft with a heavy emphasis on the warriors of 3kingdoms game asiasoft just released, many prizes were given away in the lucky draw including premium shirts,figuries and maplestory PLUSIES :D
there was also quite a few competitions and im happy to announce that my school won 3 silvers and 1 gold out of like 20++ awards LOL ..D anyway we didnt win in the robo gladiators tournament as there were alot of secondary school people made robots which were much more hi-tech and powerful not to mention a LOT OF CRAPPY cheaters which made box like robots.. our puny not cheated robots lost to them and died in honour. well thats all about this competition . short and sweet. zhenwei signing off.
a link to find out more.

Xbox 360 Project Natal
Xbox 360 Project Natal
A few of u who are my friends on facebook might have noticed that i have posted a video called Project Natal and i bet alot of u didnt borther to view it well
its the coolest upcoming gaming platform and it could be the biggest thing of the
21st century if all goes correct.. it will blow Nintento Wii away cause it is like
100x more exciting and somewhat cheaper in the long run..
"Natal uses cameras and a microphone mounted to a Wii-style sensor bar to detect the user. It recognizes movements, talking, and can even tell the difference between me and my grandma, and not just because she's better looking.
The system has plenty of goodies, such as voice and face recognition, video chatting and speech commands. After scrolling through your movies with a mid-air hand wave, just call out "Play movie!" and "Steel Magnolias" will start rolling. Love racing games? Why not grip an imaginary steering wheel and burn rubber?
Don't worry about buying a whole new console — Natal is an add-on accessory for all existing Xbox 360s. That's great news for gamers who are tired of shelling out big bucks every five years for a whole new system.
Of course, everything looks great on stage at a well-produced Hollywood-style event. The real test will come in your living room when Uncle Chester has to catch an imaginary fish with his imaginary rod at the next family gathering."
Will we see "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" and "Halo" using this new controller-free technology? Schappert says that's what Microsoft is hoping for.
So that means you could be diving behind your couch to avoid an incoming grenade attack. Or jumping off the coffee table to ambush a Nazi in "Saboteur."
