Day 3 Yokohama Round

day 2's lightning round went smoothly. but then we stayed up till like 530am to prepare for our yokohama round. was killing man. slept till 11, had lunch n went for 1st presentation. it was terrible. many things went wrong n the judges were super un-nice.

suddenly felt very unwell n giddy after that, so had to take a nap. woke up after 2 hours to start practising again. the 2nd presentation was much much better. but still murphy's law applied n vincent couldn't connect to his server when he was suppose to start demonstration. judges got impatient, but lucky it connected n he managed to show some features. wasted much precious time. that is why altho i'm at an IT competition, n its really cool to know n see all the fantastic stuff IT can do, i still dun trust it.

so judging from the judges responses and our preformance... i really dun think we will advance to the championships. despite all the effort n time we spent on this. we had the most props that were also very BIG. i prefer to be a pessimist n be surprised then to be optimist n to be gravely disappointed.

for now, i'll juz enjoy my time here. we've oredi put in our best shot.
