Industrial project regarding Interchange of AFL football

Sorry for the lack of blogging, I just couldn't come up with any topics as I've mentioned before, my life is boring..eat sleep, working, finish up my homework, watching TV/anime or playing games.

Anyway, here's what I like to share with you guys about. Lately Im doing an industrial group project from my degree courses,regarding analysing data and statistics of interchange AFL football by attending 5-7 matches. For dummies who doesn't know what is AFL...
AFL is a Australian Football League. It is the most popular sports in Australia, for more details:
click me

Back to my industrial project, so basically its like..an interchange? , one person on the AFL matches(venue) and other person at the ProWess office(bunker), the bunker needs to record the data that the person on the venue calls...the project goes from first to last week of semester..once the project ends, we have to write a report and present it infront of the lecturer.

I've done the bunker before ,and I thought it was quite easy....but never thought that the venue job was very difficult..

So today, I was chosen to do the project at the venue...which means...
I get a chance to Etihad Stadium and watch football!!! LIVE !!!! woohoo!!
yeah, Im excited! Cause you can't have this experience in Malaysia~lmaoXD~~(I watch football matches in Malaysia through Television :P~)
HOWEVER~ Im not here to watch football, but doing the interchange program...which means, I won't be able to enjoy watching football...sigh.

oh, and to point out that I wasn't bluffing~~here's my lovely ticket(its free actuallyXD):

Ok, so I met someone outside the stadium, and he gave me tickets+mobile and binoculars..

Etihad Stadium:


First time at the stadium watching live football...ahhh~I can feel the atmosphere of the players and supporters..
lolXD

Sadly, my seat wasn't good enough for a good view to do my project, so I screwed up alot... and..
yeah, it was fun at the venue but I find it a tough job. Besides, I kept yelling at the bunker about the player number due to the fact that the supporters were toooOoo loud, I heard quite alot of F YOU!!! ==...plus many goals..
so, alot of "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!". The guy who sits infront of me, gave me a "WTF are you doing? " face, but he's a lovely man and asked me what am I doing in this stadium. I feel embarrassed, but still told him that I came here to do my industrial project.


Overall, despite the FAIL data, I find that its such an interesting project..
given me such an opportunity to the AFL matches, and knowing that interchange job isn't easy as I thought..
I would like to participate more games and hopefully I get a good seat so that our data will gone well.

cheers
