MMA7260QT working!.....tears of joy

Some minutes to 1pm. It got working again. An idea came to look at the links on the break-out board and then, reduce sensitivity of the sensor as I needed a port to put the cable, then....gbam! tried it on MATLAB and there, it started working. Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I'm back on track, I exclaimed in the lab... All eyes on me(didnt mind)........gave two guys a hug ..................and then went out to sing my "I'll praise you in the good and the bad' song....yea, i cried. it was working again, even though the sensitivity of the sensor has been reduced. Thank You, Lord. Now lets see how i can reschedule a meeting with the physiotherapist.............learnt a lesson...........Whatever you face, no matter how bad, do not worry. It's all going to work out somehow. Say some "All izzz well" to yourself like 20 times. I did it. Not that it worked but i had some cause not to think too deep on my challenge.

MMA7260QT's SLP pin goes bad...or so I thought

What a day! I don't know the extent of what i've done. Here I am still battling with a project i should have concluded 4 months. Thanks to some travels by my supervisor and some lack of information on my part. Just this morning working by 2am, i was soldering the MMA7260Qt accelerometer and that was it.... I peeled off the metal part that enable you solder a metal to the board. how am I going to go further? I was supposed to be at the physiotherapist"s place by 10am....Never mind, the issue aint with me. I was supposed to get acceleration readings based on the Centre of Mass of the body from some patients with certain conditions either neurological, hemiphlegic and so on...... Haaaa! frank edwards on the background and I am thinking what the hell am i gonna do. the playlist went off to baba Adeboye and the title of the message was "God has a purpose for your life"... I cudn't just touch it.....but then he said something that kinda consoled me....."Eve...

Church boy!...April 15, 2012

We are all writers in some way. As long as we can think. even if it aint productive. As we pass through life, we create lessons that the world can learn from. yes, some good, others bad but there's always something to learn. What a day! (April 15, 2012) I'm a church boy. I've known that for a while now. That's my charging point. There are times I feel weighed down, not just me(the normal me), and then after the church service, I'm all this whoo whoo whoo. Today, a sunday and its been  4 or 5 weeks I went to my home church last. As usual, service was great but then with a new dimension. Let's start from the beginning. As usual. maybe not usual but most times, there'll be something to look for that will make the others wait for me at the car(i get to drive them to church). Mum already waiting in the car, my sisters, Tunde ans seun who came to spend the weekend. Anyway, I got to the car and off we went for service. If you have to attend church at a locat...

Birthday...18th may

A Day to remember at Ile-Ife. Clocking 26. I clocked 26 today. Not a different feeling compared to that of yesterday. I just know deep down that a lot more needs to be taken. its a special day though(a whole kunle anjorin was born). Started the day with a lovely lady(we had been talking for about 3 hours or more before 12am). We talked into the day. She wished me a happy Birthday first and gave me a warm Happy Birthday Hug before we left each other some minutes later. She walked to her room and I to mine. When i reached the corridor to my floor, i didnt want to go into the lonely room(my roomates were away). I just sat on the floor and then i got up, walked back to the car park and then towards the gate with a mind of taking a walk and brooding but something deep inside said Stop, go back. And i did. I walked back through the car Park to my room but didnt go in. I then thought of praising or thanking God(something I did last year) I did this for a while not minding my friends w...

The feeling

what's this feeling? I'll be plain. Its the feeling i got when i carried a little baby(a girl of about a year and some months) and she curled up her arm around my neck and her head on my chest. waow! her dad must be enjoying o. That feeling was wow! Can't wait to be a father. Loved the moment all thru.

05Aug2011

what a day! today is the 5th day of august, i'm here at ile-ife, in my room. guess what just happened, my laptop fell about a height of 40 to 50cm. I was just so excited that i was going to type this and then i pulled out the laptop pouch from the bag and then, it slipped out. I was quiet....couldnt say anything but aaaaahh silently. it has just happened , my thought running all around and then, i decided to pick it up, saw the battery trying to pull free off the PC but was stuck somehow. I prayed a little prayer, Lord, take charge and then, i put it on, Hmm, the surprise was that nothing happenned to the screen though it fell on the ground on the screen part. I had to drop it lie flat on the floor and say "Thank you". This is just the first part of my story cos it just happened some mins ago(this is 14mins to 6pm). had a great day, asked God for the forgiveness of my sins, had a word from the OPEN HEAVENS and then started up the day, did the normal stuff- wash plates(sor...

30th July,2011

Today aint actually the real day but i am going to go some steps back in 24kinda hours telling you about my first day in Abuja. yes, i didnt just go to do JJC for fun. I had a purpose for being there. Apart from going to claim the land, I went for an interview. Lets save this file as 30th July, 2011. it all started with me waking up in Moye suites at iyamoye, Kogi State. I had arrived the evening before with my dad, i joined him at the Ile-Ife round-about where Oduduwa university. We decided he was gonna drop me off at okenne, then i'd take a bus to Abuja. but Ome, as we got out after praying together in the hotel Room. people he talked to adviced him that he does not have to drop me off there but that i'd get a bus in front of the hotel. Hmm, daddy gave me cash sha, more than i tot i'd get for a trip to abj especially when i was close to the place but then...
