I finally got the MyEd login. The IT office work very fast! I contact them first time on last Friday and got the e-mail to confirm my identity on Saturday (Thailand time) and got the login today.
I've sent another mail to accommodation office. In this mail, I said that Ms. Catriona will confirm my position. If this is not enough, I tell them to report which body they want the information from. I will contact them directly.

Good trend
Today, Catriona, a staff at College of Science and Engineering e-mailed me back and cc: to the accommodation office. She confirm that my position is firm and gave me my matriculation number, so I can use to retrieve MyED login. I will wait for the accommodation office to respond. As for MyED, the EASE registration system need the password, which should be sent for me by mail. Since I did not receive that mail, I wrote to the MIS office attaching e-mail of Catriona asking for MyED login. It would be great if I can get these things done within next week.

No response from ED
Today, I e-mailed to the College of Science and Engineering through the mail sciengpg@ed.ac.uk. I told them about the problem that accommodation office have not confirmed that my position is unconditional and firm. Also, I asked them about MyED login.
It seems that I am ready to go now, but the university is not ready for me yet.

Accommodation, not OK yet.
Yesterday, I have got the e-mail form accommodation office again (from the different contact person). They said that they will issue the offer when they get the confirmation from the university that I've got the unconditional offer. I replied them attaching the letter that Judith confirmed me to the other agent. I hope it will be cleared before I leave for it because I have no plan for another accommodation, and they also collected 250 GBP and guarantee that I will get the accommodation.

Travel Insurance: Some Information
I've found an article from AIA Singapore website which contains useful information about travel insurance. All of this information is directly quoted from http://www.aia.com.sg/Content.asp?ca_typeid=9&ca_categoryid=2&ca_articleid=1 for personal education purpose. Some formatting has been modified for personal notes.
The holiday season is here again! Before you take off for that long awaited and exciting trip to the Caribbean Islands, the Swiss-Alps or a fun-filled time in Disneyland, make sure you have everything ready: Passport, camera, toothbrush... ...and don't forget your travel insurance. For those of you who are not familiar, here's a quick guide to understanding your travel insurance needs and to getting the right package for your trip.
Annual Policy
Most insurance companies offer travel insurance on annual basis as well as per trip basis. Annual policies cover unlimited trips made by the insured during the entire year provided that each trip does not exceed a certain number of days, usually 90 days. No declaration is required. For frequent flyers, this type of cover would be most ideal in terms of cost and convenience. The premium for annual travel policies varies only slightly among insurance companies, averaging around S$300 for travel within Asia and S$400 for travel worldwide (for the individual).
Family Packages
Family packages are also designed to cater for immediate families traveling together. Definition of immediate families would mean the insured person, the insured person's spouse and children. Family packages are usually priced at a lower premium than if individual policies were to be taken up for the whole family. Although annual policies are also provided for families, such plans are generally not as popular as the annual policies for individuals, reason being that most parents with children who are still schooling are unlikely to make than 2 trips in a year due to school holiday-and-examination constraints.
"Phone-and-Fly"
Ever heard of "phone-and-fly" program? A number of insurance companies are now offering this 24-hour service at no extra cost. Register yourself as a member, and you may call up anytime of the day from anywhere in Singapore before your flight to activate your travel insurance. It is travel insurance made easy, especially for busy executives who cannot afford the time to make their way down to the insurance company each time they go on a trip. Now, even "last-minute" travelers can simply pick up a phone to activate their travel insurance in Changi Airport just minutes before their plane takes off. However, please take note that, if you are doing this for the first time, the insurance company may need time to process your registration before you can have access to this "dial-in" facility.
24-Hour Emergency Assistance and Information Service
Some of these 24-hour services even offer information on visa requirements, foreign exchange, weather forecasts and medical advice et cetera. Very helpful indeed for inexperienced travelers or for those who are traveling to more remote and less traveled places. These service centers may also offer emergency assistance in the form of embassy, legal, interpreter and medical referrals. Most importantly, they can arrange for emergency medical evacuation in case of a major accident.
Insurance Benefits and Limits of Coverage
So what are the benefits and limits of coverage to look out for in a travel policy? A standard travel insurance package should include coverage for Emergency Evacuation, Baggage Delay, Baggage Loss, Flight Delay, Hospital Cash, Hospital or Medical Reimbursement, Hijack, Loss of Money or Personal Belongings, Missed Connections, Overbooked Flights, Personal Accident, Personal Liability, Trip Curtailment and Trip Cancellation. Some insurance companies even insure against the loss or theft of golfing equipment and laptops.
The limit of coverage for emergency evacuation ranges from S$500,000 to an unlimited "cost-incurred" amount depending on your choice of plan. Compensation for flight and baggage delay are usually in the region of S$500 or S$1,000. This feature comes along with a "Time" excess, meaning that the insurance companies only compensate when the delay exceeds a certain time frame. The limit for loss of baggage varies from a couple of thousand dollars to S$10,000, usually with a cap for individual items. Most insurance companies would compensate a couple of hundred dollars for each day of hospitalization up to the maximum limit indicated in their respective packages. This is solely to compensate the insured for the number of days spent in a hospital overseas and should not be mistaken as hospital or medical reimbursement, which takes care of the hospital and ward charges. The limit may range between S$100,000 to S$500,000. Personal accident coverage, which is to compensate the insured for permanent or temporary disablement or death as a result of an accident, generally comes in limits of S$100,000, S$150,000 or S$200,000. Personal Liability is important in case of legal liability, arising out of one's negligence in causing a third party injury (or death) and/or third party property damage. The limit for this cover ranges from S$500,000 upwards (S$1 million is not uncommon).
Special Features
Go for insurance companies that offer nil deductibles. Otherwise, you may end up having to bear the first S$40 or S$50 of every claim that you make. For those of you who intend to engage in water or winter sports during your trip, it would be wise to take up your travel policy with insurers who offer free coverage for such activities. Some insurance companies may charge an additional premium for this extension, so it is better to clarify this point before you effect your cover. Unfortunately, the definition of water sports in the typical travel policy does not include scuba diving. Not surprisingly, bungee jumping is also excluded from most travel policies. Watch out for age limits imposed by some insurance companies, meaning that persons exceeding a certain age (most commonly 65 years) are excluded from their travel coverage. But if you belong to this elderly group, fret not. There are insurance companies that do not impose any age limit and offer the same coverage at no additional premium loading. A unique coverage that is being offered in the insurance market is the "Car Rental Excess". This feature takes care of the excess amount that the insured normally has to bear (under the motor policy taken up at car rental companies) in the event of damage to the rented vehicle while driving overseas.
Premium Computation
For "per-trip" policies, the premium payable hinges considerably on the number of days of travel, the country of destination and choice of plan. For example, a trip to Europe or The United States of America warrants a much higher premium than a trip to Asia for the same number of days. Some insurance companies provide the option of higher limits of coverage at of course, a higher premium. If price is of concern, it is advisable to keep on hand the premium schedule from a couple of insurance companies for comparison before you activate your travel insurance before each trip. All premiums are non-negotiable as travel insurance policies are standard packages and are not "custom-made". Once taken up, no cancellation of policy and refund of premium are allowed. This is especially so if the policy offers the coverage of "Trip Cancellation", which reimburses the insured for any deposit or expenditure incurred for the forthcoming trip, in the event that the trip has to be cancelled due to an emergency such as a sudden death in the immediate family or that of a business partner or even bankruptcy of the travel agent.
Claim Procedure
All insurance companies will require claimants to lodge their claims within a certain time frame. Claimants would be required to complete and submit a claim form, which can be obtained from their respective insurance companies. In almost all instances, claims must be accompanied by relevant documents, such as medical receipts for medical reimbursement or hospital cash; a police report for loss of money or personal documents; an official letter from the airline in cases of flight or baggage delay and loss of baggage if within custody of the airline. In all cases, call up and inform your insurance company immediately for necessary advice.
There you are... now with a basic knowledge of travel insurance, you are equipped to choose the travel policy best suited to your needs and you are all set to fly!
Bon Voyage!
Note: The intention of this article is to highlight the various features available in a travel insurance package (list is not exhaustive) and not to elect the best package or cheapest premiums that are being offered in town. No mention or reference to any specific insurance company is made. Each travel insurance package is different and superior in different areas. Readers are encouraged to explore these differences and decide on the one best suited to their needs.

Travel Insurance Survey
Although I have got the medical insurance from EuMI, they suggest me to have a travel insurance for my baggages. I have done a little survey about this, and it is not pricey. The problem is: Whether it is possible to claim the insurance in UK while I purchase the insurance here? If it is possible, which is the claim rate in GBP?
I have submitted an inquiry for each insurance I am interested.
I have submitted an inquiry for each insurance I am interested.
- Axa Smart Travel - Plan I (1 - 4 days: 550 THB)
- ACE Insurance - First Class Plan (1- 4 days: 775 THB)
Where is my accommodation offer?
In the last contact with the accommodation office in a month ago, they said that the accommodation will be allocated in mid-July. This is the beginning of August, and I am nervous about it already. Yesterday, I e-mailed to check whether my offer has been issued. It turns out that the accommodation office did not receive the confirm that I have accepted the unconditional offer. GOD! I e-mailed Judith Gordon today asking for her help in this. I hope that this is not risk the chance to get the accommodation. Anyway, they already collected me 250 GBP and guarantee the accommodation, so they must be on it.
I also have no MyED login. They said that I need it to confirm the accommodation offer. I e-mailed Lynda Henderson asking for help in this yesterday. There is no response from her yet.

05 August: Groggy Sunday
Groggy Sunday
Today is very confusing day. Everyone but me leaves the house, and I have to do the finishing touch on the project:A together with watching over my mom's new groceries. Things get worse with the periodical short rain which makes me hurry to collect the clotheshorse now and then. The most annoying matter is the telephone calls about land selling that my mother is a middleman. I told her thousand times to call him back, but she never call. Thus, it ends up that he make a call in every hour to bug me. The day ends when I lost my temper and go to sleep. Yes, sleeping make me forget things. It is not useful to remember it though.
Courses in Bonn
Sandeep* forwarded an e-mail about course-accommodation relativeness in Aachen. In his e-mail the student of former cohort said that the first semester, we have to take German course which held in Aachen, but for net/media-centric people, we have to do the FIT lab in Bonn. He suggest us to take some courses at Edinburgh instead of Bonn since most courses in Aachen are better. These courses are the compulsory that have to be taken in Bonn:
* Sandeep is an EuMI student in my cohort. He is in net-centric Edinburgh-Trento.
** Tanin is my friend from Thailand who also an EuMI student with almost same configuration as mine except that his main university is Aachen.
***Pom is a student in EuMI in previous cohort. He is net-centric Aachen-Edinburgh.

04 August: Study skill for graduate student
A study skill workshop held by British Council today makes me realize that I have to improve some skills. It is well known that basic study skills are listening, speaking, writing, and reading. If you get 600 on TOEFL PBT or 6.5 IELTS does not means that you will not have any problem in graduate study. Many skills such as note taking, discussion in seminar, and critical thinking is not well-tested in previously mentioned tests.
Note Taking
Seminar Discussion
Critical Thinking
What UK value?
Independent, Innovative, Individual
My webcam
I bought two webcam from Pantip today. It is Oker which cost me 900 THB each. The image is fine, but the USB plug socket at the camera is quite loose. It hangs my desktop for several times. I wonder if it is the problem of my very old motherboard or the device driver because it also crash my laptop once.

03 August: Have Hep. B antibody
Blood result said that I already have Hepatitis B anitbody, so I don't have to take more 3 vaccines.
I visited TCDC (Thailand Center of Design and Creativity) and see the exhibition about automaton (The mechanical toys created from woods, not the finite-state automata, even if it has the state finite ^^). The creator of each automaton is great in both imagination and mechanical skill. Some of them is very complexed and juxtapose reality in very funny way.
There is another exhibition about design in UK. The theme said that you can earn while you do the work you love. Many design work in UK is in this way. I spent too much time in the automaton one, so I don't have enough time to see this one in detail.
Project: A is accepted by the contractor. There is minor feature improvement that have to be done. I think that I can close this project in Sunday.
It's time to start researching about professors at University of Edinburgh!

02 August: Vaccinated
The Thai army sport club is new running venue for me. I went to farther than I usually run and find that place with calm environment, good air, not so hot, and no dogs. I will try post some of its photo when I have time.
I went to Thai Red Cross Society and vaccinated today. University of Edinburgh recommends me to be vaccinated for Meningtis C and MMR, but I further ask for more vaccination on rabies and infulenza for my own safety. Today, I took 4 needles of vaccine and one more for blood checking for Hepatitis B. Next week, I will take two or tree, depending on the Hepatitis result. And in next month, I will take the last needle for MMR. Today, it cost me 2,850 for vaccination and 450 for blood testing. More detail on this, I will write later.
During my transportation time, I read the latest volume of Harry Potter. I have go through 3 chapters now. This is the slowest read of the book in this series. I finished book 1 - 6 by spending about 2 -3 days on each book. (Maximum 3 for the last book.) But, for this book, I have another plan. I try to capture most vocabulary out of it and try to observe the writer's style. I think that this may be beneficial for my future as a graduate student in author's homeland.
I modified some Drupal module for my project: A. Although it is a good practice to develop the user interface of the module, I decided to turn to hard-coded work making watermarking module work with another image uploading module. This because I can not think of the cross-module user interface. May be, I have to write another module to connect this two? Not today, I am very exhausted and the deadline is tomorrow. Since it will turns to production environment tomorrow, if there is anyone drop by my blog, you can see the project on http://www.amornsak.com. (It's in Thai though. :) )

01 August: Blogging Habits (beta)
I planned to blog my EuMI life at least 2 lines per day. The beginning of the month is a good day to start my blogging habits. For the summary of each day's blog, read the first line of each paragraph.
Last Friday, I got a pack of letters from University of Edinburgh. It contains documents about matriculation, international student advice, graduate student advice, and some welcome party registration form. I have read it through on last weekend and will post some useful detail here after this hectic week.
I bought a running shoe form Adidas yesterday. Super Nova control 10 numbered 9 1/2 is my shoe. After using it once in the morning, it is worthwhile for its 3,170 THB expense. (It is actually 4,170 THB, but I have turned in my old shoe to get the discount of 1,000 THB.) The photo of it can be found in my blog in Thai.
I went to the NAiST lab and had been assigned to write a paper on my work on Tree Editor. It is my effort to create the tree editor on the web platform which does not need any special program (except Firefox browser) installed. The paper will be presented on SNLP 2007 held by my laboratory, so I have 14 days from now to write it. I may not be able to present it since the conference will be held in the end of this year. However, it happen to held on my Christmas break and they provide me the expense on plane, I may come.
In the late evening, I go shopping again for an electric shaver. I always want one since I found the documentary about shaving on either Discovery Channel or National Geographic Channel. Since I can shave quickly and safer without using foam or water, it may help me to shave often. If anyone in Thai and know me, they usually found me unshaved especially in the busy week. It cost me 1,470 THB since it is a rechargeable one which I prefer since I can use the unlimited electricity in my house at EDI. It is warranted for two years, internationally. Its photo can be found in my blog in Thai.
My website project: A is goes well. In this Friday, I will submit the work and get 5,000 THB to pay my expenses.
