Human Structure SSM 1006
Palmar Spaces and the Spread of Infectionfinally over
It was so cool to see 130 medics wearing suit to class,
and every single presentation has been so professional.A round of applause to my dear group mates who has been ever so helpful — AlexandradraNgHoiCC, Yvonne + Yvonne, Sub, ar Ma, it’s the academic information you have researched on which made everything possible; Winnie, for your amazing speech, really really fantastic; Last but DEFINITELY not least: JASPER Wut Gei Wong!! We’ve both spent 3 sleepless nights together in front of our mac’s, and your flash presentation was amazing! Really lively!!! Our presentation was a success and it was such a pleasure working with you guys, and thanks for the absolute tolerance on my bad temper during the final 3 days!

It looked like some people, probably including the judges, thought that the 3D animation we used was a bogus downloaded elsewhere.
I don’t mean to brag or be an arrogant arse, but in case anyone is still wondering:
I really, really did make the whole 3D animated model from scratch all by myself — from the 3D and transparency editing, modelling, and animation rendering in Blender3D, also the colour contrast and effects control in Adobe Photoshop, to combining the animation and adding text and effects and the control panel in Macromedia Flash — an authentic liyeung.com creation.
Really sorry for my endless moaning, I find myself annoying too, I understand it would be egotistic to proclaim the originality of my so-called masterpiece in here, like no one in their righteous minds would go ‘Hey look, I made the powerpoint myself!’ during the presentation, duh, we medics are not that narcistic. It’s never my intention to complain about my sleepless nights since everybody in class has spent equally much time on this SSM presentation. I’m not claiming to be an IT expert cos I’m far from it, nor am I craving an acknowledgement. De facto I don’t really care about what others think now; it’s the judges that matter. I do not wish that this incident would consequently provoke a huge drop in our effort mark, which means my 3 sleepless nights of work down the drain: that without doubt doesn’t only affect me, but my whole group as well, likewise ruining everybody’s hard work. Should this happen I’ll feel bad for the rest of my life.
Well, I already do, I felt crap for not attending softball training afterwards, while this saturday’s game is ever so important to the team.
hell no, I should be happy for being able to get some sleep now, walking zombie.
Finally, I sincerely apologize for looking so cocky, or inch, on stage. But as anyone would expect, after staying up for 72 hours straight with just some occational naps, it’s hard to maintain a buoyant facial expression.
by the way, the game of the year held tomorrow (10 March 2007)will be:
CUHK vs HKU
@HKU 11am
please do come to show your support if you had the time. I honestly would appreciate it. That’s one single thing cuhk is lacking sometimes, don’t you all want to kick hku’s arses and show them what we’ve got?

Hey I do understand how you feel about the animation.
In fact the moment when I saw it in MDL I was already thinking whether the judges and the others would think that it’s just a piece of work that so happen you found it on the web – and it’s perfectly normal for them to think in this way, I can asure you – because using multi-media found on the net during a ssm presentation is not uncommon at all, which’s obvious because everyone don’t wanna make it just a plain presentation, they want to make it an unique one and at the end everyone becomes the same again – no it’s nobody fault.
And since the judges already had that mindset, that students will do it that way, you can’t really blame them for thinking that your work’s just another “bogus downloaded elsewhere”. But instead of just feeling bad here, next time I guess you can add something more like a “signature” of you into your work, say adding some cartoons of yours into the animation, and the whole thing will be quite self-explainatory that it’s a original work of your group, without much need of verbal defence.
Anyway I do not believe that all your effort was down the drain, even though the judges will never realize it, and what does the mark matter at all? Isn’t the trust that was built among your group more valuable than that? I’m pretty sure that at the end of the days that is what you’ll reminisce, but not the mark/prize/whatsoever.
Cheers~
ADD OIL, CUHK SURE WIN!
And the 3D animation, although someone dunno, but at least our group and our good friends know that you made enormous effort in it.
You are real Wut Gei Wong and real superb, lucci!
Haha, well if they dun believe, let’s make a 3D of the whole body ad sell to the department of anatomy, if CU dun like it, sell it to HKU!!!!!
Let’s beat Netter tgether!!!!hahahahah!
The 3D model sounds interesting! Could you upload it here and let us non-CUHK medic people look at it?
