MMC reader!

Yay! I finally got my very own MultiMedia Card reader~~~ Now i can transfer files from my handphone to my laptop and from my laptop to my phone without using the bluetooth function~~~ If the bluetooth function on my laptop is not mulfunctioning, it might take me another 1 or 2 years before i get a MMC reader. But anyway, since i got it, might as well use it to the fullest~~~

Went for a haircut too~ I got my ONION HEAD back! ^-^

果汁的故事

每一杯果汁一打出来,自然而然就会被标上一个过期日。有一些果汁能放很久,有一些却只有短短三天的寿命。不论是长短,果汁还是会有过期的一天。

XX,你把果汁放太久了。。。

History lessons

For the past 2 days, something weird has been going on. Yesterday, i have met 3 girls whom i rather not see, and an additional 1 today. Why would i be reluctant to see them? The reason is simple. I do not know how to react to them.

The first 1 was really nothing worth talking about. She is not my friend, but instead is one of my close friend's friend. By seeing me, it might have triggered some unhappy memories for her. Although for most part, it was her fault instead of my friend's fault, but i guess since it's all over, the blame game should stop too. I was just too glad that it was not my close friend who was the one who met her. If not, he would be devastated.

For the second one, in fact, we did not really had much contact too. We came to know about each other in FOC. Even though our conversation was rather stupid and lasted for less than an hour i supposed, i felt that she could be a nice friend in the future. So after the FOC, i tried to search for her through the usual channels. And it so happened that she was taking the same elective as i am taking this semester. Although i tried to communicate with her, it seemed that she was not interested at all. It was quite shocking, as she was friendly during FOC, and was as if she was hinting me "Go away, i don't want to talk" after the camp. Oh well. I am not losing anything too, so i wasn't really bothered by it. So, i would rather not see her, as i have absolutely nothing to converse with her, not even a greetings. lol.

The intensity seems to increase, and from the 2nd one to the 3rd one, there was a huge leap. We met each other in can 9. Or rather, she RECOGNIZED me and initiated a greeting before i found out it was her. She was a nice girl that i met during hall 9 FOC. I was a senior attached then. Our relationship was weird. I do not know how to explain it properly, but i will give it a try. It was as if we are friends, and we are not. NOT in the sense that we are strangers. When we were together during hall events, she would be very bubbly and did not fail to entertain me with her actions and talks. She would be like how a small sister treats a big brother. At times, she would be clinging on to me like a spoilt kid. But that doesn't mean anything more than her cute character. Some mistook it as a display of affection, but i did not take it that way, as i thought that was how she would act based on her character. Even though i liked her a bit more than a normal friend, i was still sane enough to not get myself into any kind of trouble. On the flipside, she was very unsociable when it came to communicating using technology (e.g. phone, internet etc). So it was as if we are total strangers. lOl. As we did not have too many chances to go out together, it was difficult to keep up with her, and eventually there was no contact at all. I will still want to talk to her as a friend, but it seems like our friendship have gone past the expiry date.

The latest one... I have to admit i liked her. But that was only judging based on the appearance. I do not know if she was outright gorgeous in everyone's eyes (seriously, many have doubt my taste at times, DUH! I have my own preference k!), but to me, i believed she was the kind who would melt every man's heart. We got to know each other through a very funny experience. It involved a lot of courage on my side, as i approached her out of nowhere to ask for her handphone number. She was with 2 of her friends (a guy and a girl if i remembered it correctly), and i just charged straight to her outside LWN library. Talking about stupidity, i was so nervous till the point that i even forgot to tell her my name before leaving. Yup, so i got her numbers without telling her my name. LOL! Anyway, we often communicated on MSN, but i was not able to ask her out. Nothing's gonna happen when 2 persons have no face-to-face interaction. It would just be a lame virtual "friend"ship where 2 robots issued commands to each other on a regular basis. I have to admit i am always at a loss when it comes to dealing with a girl i like. I knew it was dumb and the reply would just be a huge NEGATIVE, but i still did that. The rationale behind it was, i thought that it was getting nowhere as there was absolutely no chance for me to ask her out. So why not just shoot the question and let every other things take care of it? There was really nothing i could do anymore to make it better and so i made that decision. Naturally, i was rejected. I thought to myself, i gave it my best and there was nothing more i could do. I was not particularly sad over her reply, as i believed it had somehow eased the burden that i was carrying at that time.

You used to visit my blog frequently, and even gave me alot of suggestions. I am able to paragraph my writings thanks to you, and i really enjoyed the times when we were still keeping in contact. There were many times i have saw you, but by the time i have confirmed that it was you, you were already a distance behind me. If i put in some effort, i would definitely be able to catch up with you and say a "hi". But i didn't, as i no longer have the courage from the first time we met. I was afraid you might not reply, i was afraid you might not recognize me, i was afraid i recognized the wrong person... i was afraid i could not say anything more other than a "hi"... Stay pretty k? I hoped you have already gotten over the pain from your previous boyfriend. Who knows? You might already have found your prince charming. All the best. ^-^

what...?

Maybe i was wrong about something that i thought a week ago... Am i really wrong about it...? What should i be doing instead then...? Ah... i have too many bad experiences to allow one more like this... How many years will it be this time...? I am not prepared to risk it... neither am i prepared to lose it...

Today will be the release of the last episode of 命中注定我爱你。。。加油哦 忠明。。。

Effort == Return ?

Sometimes people wonder. Does putting in effort ensure returns? In my opinion, i disagree. I am sure many have faced the problem where conversation is often one-sided. One party is trying hard to put in effort to keep the conversation alive, while the other makes no attempt to reciprocate. He/she will just be replying for the sake of replying, while the formal tries his/her best to come up with topics again and again. Is this a healthy conversation? I doubt so. So what can the formal do to make the conversation a better one? I would say, nothing. People often say, it takes two hands to clap. The same logic applies here. If you are just gonna stick your warm cheek to his/her cold butt (its a direct chinese translation of 把自己的热脸贴到别人的冷屁股上), nothing's gonna change.

Why do some people only have the same group of friends for a donkey age, while some have different groups of friends in different stages of their life? Nothing can be said which is better, but the grass on the other pasture does always look greener. This is something that we, as social animals, should be pondering upon.

Business Plan... Hmmm...

One of the module i am taking this semester require me to come up with a business plan. After giving it several attempts, nothing seems to be realistic, or at least did not even reach the standards that i have set in mind. 10 years ago, perhaps there are tons and tons of business ideas left to be explored. But now? From paying by cash for a bus trip, to inserting a bus card, and today, with an ezlink card you will be able to just tap it at the machine and have no worries for the rest of the trip (except for bus breakdown! lOl!) In my opinion, most of the things are already at their optimal efficiencies and further tuning will only be nitpicking. Business idea... Ha! What a joke.

九十九次我爱他 - 元若蓝

保加利亚玫瑰的精油
全滴在他刚才牵过我的手
横冲直撞 我的心像一颗躲避球
谁懂爱停在手里多久

学问道理教科书都有
恋爱上上签到底哪里求
如果有教授 我一定要努力修
丘比特呀 快为我加油

多想带着雷达 到他梦里仔细调查
爱的正卡 还有没有副卡
也想拿起扫把 在他心底洗洗刷刷
不专心的念头 哎咿哎咿都清除啦

九十九次我爱他
少了眼皮会乱眨
要他能心电感应我的想法
每天念着他的名字
哎咿哎咿 一句不差

九十九次我爱他
少了头发会分岔
要他的想念每天准时打卡
爱像冰淇淋在嘴里溶化

Busy Days Are Over Soon

It has been a few days since i last updated my blog. I was very busy with alot of university-related stuff, often resulting me in reaching my room late at night. Even though i have been so busy, there was nothing interesting in particular, and i also did not have time to come up with a topic noteworthy to blog about. Yup, i am still swimming, just that it is not on a daily basis. Time was one of the factor contributing to it, but the biggest issue was my body. I guessed i overdid it, and had caused strains in several parts of my body. But after 2 days of rest (including today), i should be going for another swimming session tomorrow. This time, i will remind myself to adopt the progressive training method. ^-^ As i am writing this, my lesson is still on-going. Guess what? I am in my room. Ah... The immense fatigue made me slept longer than i should have, and the next thing i know, i had skipped 3 hours worth of lectures. Time to catch up on them. TaTa~

HOME

Going home was not on a regular basis for me. But i guess it will be for the remaining semester. After putting in much thoughts, i have planned my tuition schedule to be on tuesday nights. This is also because of my student having the tendency of not being free on weekends. On the other side, i also planned to go home on weekends so that i can find a "motivation" to study. Since i do not have direct access to internet at home, there will be a higher tendancy that i will read some of my notes during my free time.

I guess i will also be making some changes to my life, especially forsaking play time for some studies to be done. Most probably, i will try to cut down on the time i spent playing DoTA and dedicate my time to academic purposes.

Recently, i seemed to be riding a roller coaster. I guess i'll be alright after some time, hopefully by the next weekend. I have also tried to take up swimming again in a bid to preoccupy myself with activities so that i won't have too much time to allow my mind to wander. Swimming is also a good sport which i had long wanted to do, as it will also build up my stamina which proves to be important in a lot of things i do.

Regardless, the current me will only be temporary. Given some time, i will be myself again in no time. Dropping all worries and regaining the happy-go-lucky attitude. Grow up dude. You can do it.

有感而发

听了一百遍,泪也都干了。。。

若听个一千遍,心也该会死了吧。。。

假设每夜都得听个一百遍来停止悲伤。。。

再多九个不眠的夜晚应该就能获得解脱了吧。。。

如何渡过这一个夜晚。。。

今夜就让元若蓝的《半情歌》陪我度过一晚吧。。。

=======================
花 接受凋零 风 接受追寻
心的伤还有一些不要紧
我接受你的决定

你将会被谁抱紧 唱什么歌哄他开心
我想着天空什么时候会放晴
地球不曾为谁停一停

你的明天 有多快乐 不是我的
我们的爱是唱一半的歌
时间把习惯换了 伤口愈合
也撤销我再想你的资格

你的祝福 一半甜的 一半苦的
像我手中冷掉的可可
最最教人残念的总是未完成的
我只能唱着 一半的歌
=======================

不知从几何时我又慢慢习惯了孤单。。。

Tiring day worrrr

Early in the morning @ 830, there exists a tutorial class. As to which module, i do not know. For i did not bother to wake up to attend it. HEH! I opened my eyes, knowing that i can go for the tutorial. But something in my mind tell me, i should just sleep a little longer. I did not manage to figure out who or what gave me this thought. The voice just kept resonating in my brain, urging me to return back to lalaland. Despite my attempt to fight back (duh, actually i did not, heh!), i continued to sleep on until the first lecture of the day @ 1230~~~

Lesson was the same o' boring stuff. I find it meaningless to listen to the CPE301 lecturer and if this goes on, i might be tempted to skip his lectures. Arghhhh, thats the last thing i want to do!!! Anyway, after lesson, i came back to the room and straight away requested a game of DoTA with BoonCheng and Ryuk~~~ But too bad Ryuk was not in room... Lesson so late worrr, poor thing. HAHAHA! So we went ahead and have a game first~~~ Stressful stressfulllll!!! But still won~

After the game, as promised(a promise made to myself, wakaka), i decided to go for a swim. I only swam 20 breadth, and its like taking every ounce of energy left in me. This is a great indication saying that i should start swimming more often, before i forget even how to do breast strokes. My freestyle was horrible. Totally out of this world. I do not know if its my technique or the lousy body i currently have. Most probably its a combination of both.

Just after finished swimming, i saw Yaohui running on the track and went over to talk. Just then, Huiqi called me and asked if i was interested to go for the concert held at LKC lecture theatre. I was initially quite reluctant, but decided to go since i have nothing much to do too. When i finally reached hall, she called again, telling me that there might be some problem with the queuing. Due to the initial reluctance, it only took a small spark to fix my mind on not going, despite being ready to leave my hall already. After rejecting the offer, i took out my laptop again, plugged in my power supply, and decided to play a game of dota with cheng and ryuk~~~ HAHAHA!

As i was not in my tip-top condition, i find it pointless for me to be there at the concert as they are going in a BIG group. Due to preferences, i would rather not hang out in a big group as i find it hard to manage everyone. You don't have to respond to everyone! Yeah, thats what i thought too, but i just can't seem to do it. I find that its a responsibility to make sure that no one feels left out (excluding myself).

Wanted to play DoTA lorrr, but Cheng and Ryuk said they wanted to have dinner first~~~ > . < Buttttttttttttt, i requested to follow them!!! HaHaHa~~~ I went over to their hall (hall 12... SO FAR), visited their room~~~ Wah lao!!! I also applied hall 12 but did not get it... The room condition is so good~~~ When i entered the room, immediately the atmosphere changed. 3 Leng Zai in 1 room, 帅到不行啦~~~ Stupid BoonCheng was making a game with gamemaker and Ryuk was lying on his bed looking SOOOOOOO tired. Shortly after we went to have our dinner at canteen 14. Waaaa, got 3 japanese girls worrr~~~ HAHAHA! Hum sap Ryuk action action, wanted to go approach the japanese girls, but in the end never~~ EEEEEE~~~

All good things must come to an end, dinner was over and so we went back. Then now... DOTA LIAO LOR!!!

21st August 2008

There will be a singing recruitment at hall 10 on 21st Aug 08. Should be fun to go down and have a look. ^-^

未完成

同情让人更加伤心
离开也许是一种解脱

我终究提不起勇气
只得默默的承受这个悲剧

若你心里已有别人
恳求不要再回头牵挂

我的心 早已不属于我自己
不想要的是你的同情

无名曲

当初的无情冷漠, 让我不知所措
千方百计的逗你, 却换来更远的距离

远远看着你的脸, 你却不睬不理
正当我快要放弃, 你终于有了些反应

水汪汪的眼睛, 还有嘟嘟的嘴型
我看了一看, 我情不自禁爱上你

当我们同在一起
我充满无比的感激
只要你一个微笑
全世界就变得华丽

那些可爱的表情
给了我致命的一击
我仿佛快要窒息
这时明白
我爱你

Headache...

Whenever there is good things, bad things are bound to happen too. Just like Yin and Yang, there is an unspoken balance of happiness and sadness in one's life. Even though it was overall a fun day, there are also a few sad things coupled in between. I shan't talk about each and every one of them, but will instead pick one of them to mention.

Just before i was rushing for the dance class, Yaohui sent me a message, offering me the project for DSO-URECA which will be based in the lab that he is working at. If you ask me, i would say it is a great chance for me to seriously get something done. There isn't any bigger motivation to work in an environment where the person you admired works there too. So here comes the problem. After accepting the offer, finishing the dance class, coming back to hall, i realized that if i were to take on DSO-URECA, what is going to happen to my GIP plan? Sigh... My head is spinning now. A potential $3,000 reward + another project under my name VS a life time experience in China. Wow... as if i do not have enough worries on my mind... Well, well, life's like this...

MJ ROX!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! The MJ dancers are just fantastic!!! Seeing them dance, and trying to follow is totally 2 different things!!! The feeling is beyond words~~ Really had a lot of fun at the class, even though my own dancing is so retarded till the point of beyond recognition~~ > . < But nevermind! I will work hard and learn the dance steps taught to me today!!! 1 day, i will be able to DANCE that small set of dance steps!!! Woot!!! Can't wait to master it and show it to my friends!!! Dancer are cool!!!

Ohhhh, and i also got an offer for DSO-URECA from my good friend YaoHui~~~ Sigh, he is so capable, if only i can be as good as him. But at least he takes good care of me in terms of lobang!!! HAHA! Ok larrrrr!!! DSO-URECA i take the project based in your lab larrr!!! ^-^

Life can be so beautiful~~~ ^-^

what...

Feeling weak all over... What is happening to me...? Where did this sadness come from wor... I think i should just get it over with...

Goodbye Singapore?

As usual, i went for the CPE184 lecture this morning. Habitually, i bought the $2 breakfast from MacDonald. Tea and a burger. In fact, i was more interested in the tea than the burger. But oh well, since it can be treated as a decent breakfast with the addition of another $1.50 (in my mind, tea should only cost 50 cents, hence the $1.50), i bought it anyway.

Was late by approximately 10 minutes, but it was of no issue since the lecturer isn't convincing to begin with. After settling down beside Boon Cheng, i started to make my tea. Just then, he asked me something which unsettled me (ironical har). GIP. Yup. An oversea trip to work instead of having an IA(industrial attachment) in the local industry. The question was not out of the blue, as i had previously in mind that i might desire the experience to roam the outside world.

That was when i did not have any burden or concern. It is changes that made time meaningful. That mindset has since changed. If you were to ask me now, i would say i am not without worries. Family wise, in my current status, there shouldn't even be a problem. I am living as if i am detached from my home already. I still do go home, but it isn't something that will sway my decision. Friends, we can still communicate with each other online and all sorts of ways. What is left is the emptiness in the heart. 2 years before i am out of this "wonderful" place. Academically wise, university is a crap place where your grades mean nothing more than a professor's paycheck. Socially wise, one might not have a chance to meet as many people outside in the working society. Most importantly, the one in your life might not appear for a 2nd time. There are so many times where you think that someone is the one, but most often it never really materialize to allow you to judge whether he/she is the right one. Barriers are set up and we will never know if the ones we have in mind are the right ones for each other until the other party decided to fizzle the barrier.

Right now, i seem to have someone in mind, but it has been slowly fading away as the barrier never cease to grow stronger. Does perseverance really works? Changes grow with time, but does time really has the capability to change a person's heart? If only i had the answers to these questions, i will not be having a split headache resulting from the dilemma i am having now... I am hoping for something that will allow me to make my stand before this Friday... 2 days before the interview... wow...

Assume here, Assume there, Whatever lar

Really had enough with people assuming all the things in the world. If you find something weird, before you jump to conclusion, ask will die issit? Assume assume, whatever lar.

CPE 301... #$^%$^$%&%$

Missed 4 straight lectures of CPE 301 already... What the... The latest 1 was this morning. Thanks to the stupid NDP holiday on monday, which slipped my mind while looking at the timetable, i happily assumed that today was a MONDAY. Argh... Nicely done. Now i am trying hard to read the stupid lecture notes all by myself, and worst of all, everything doesn't make any sense!!! Am i supposed to remember all the stupid formula inside??? Omg... if only the lecturer can tell me or just put the god damn recorded video on the website!!!

To : Pressure Cooker (2)

It has only been just a short moment and i am already missing having a conversation with you. As much as i want to talk to you, i remind myself that i cannot succumb to temptation. I must not forget the reason behind all these. Perseverance. I just hope that it works out fine...

To : Pressure Cooker

It hurts me to speak to you in this manner, but i really hope that you can face the problem instead of running away from it. It is better i stop the conversation at this, as i believe this is the only way that you will be able to reflect on what i have said. If my actions triggered your tears again, i hope that after the tears dried up, you will realize that i was actually very concerned about you and most importantly, you will end up being a stronger girl. Losta love...

DoTA!!!

WEEEEE~~~~~ Another match won easily~~~ Dunno is because of the lousiness of the freshie or our teamwork getting better (hehhh~~~ i am still lacking quite a bit in teamwork though~~~), we are currently pwning people like there is no tomorrow~~~

Just managed to defeat a team consisting of 2 maphacker suspects. And to top it off, we humiliate them to MAX by pwning them so badly. Game ended at 40++ mins, hope it could last longer~~~ HAHAHA! It is sooooooo fun to have such great playmates~~~ The bond is unimaginable!!! r0x on!

Bored... NO MORE!

The new school term has started, so does the DoTA frenzy. It is such a nice feeling when i can always find my friends to have a game of DoTA whenever i am bored~~~ Brothers forever~~~ ^-^

*Just finished a game, going for another one~ ciao~*

I Wonder...

In life, there are many decisions to make and in each decision, there are many choices to be selected. Each choice will lead to different outcome, and to put it crudely, life is like a role-playing game (RPG). Like in World of Warcraft (WoW - MMORPG), some of your actions will determine if your relationship with a particular clan will improve or worsen.

I realized, often in life, there are many instances of decision-making where there is no choices that will give you the best deal. Instead, you will end up in a dilemma. Ever had a problem where picking choice A will lead you to gaining something special but comes with a huge consequence should the coin be on the wrong side, whereas picking choice B will lead you to gaining nothing and losing abit of something, at the same time minimizing the damage resulting from a failed choice A. In this kind of situation, will you pick choice A or choice B?

Depending on individuals, selection will be made based on importance of the stuff you currently hold and the importance of stuff that you are trying to gain. For me, losing something very important is not an option. Although gaining something of equal importance is extremely tempting, but the mere thought of losing it sets me back a zillion squares. Do i let things remain as it is and wait for a miracle or do i take a random risk which might end me up in extreme agony like a gambling addict who went bankrupt? I will be more than glad to take a calculated risk, but how do anyone determine if the risk is calculated or not? How do we gauge the amount of risk in this ever-complicated world?

Integrity? I would say no.

Chalet~~~

Well well well, how should i go about talking about the chalet? There were tonnes of food (most of them are being eaten due to forfeit~) and also a bottle of... wine? Black label, thats the only information i have. Anyway, it was lots of fun and thanks to the fun i had, i did not manage to sleep... The lack of sleep is starting to get to me, but i believe it is worth it.

Pressure cooker~~~ don't always pile up pressure to yourself lehhh~~~ Must vent it out or share share 1 ma~~~ Try to seek more opinions also k~~~? Your laughter is very important neh~~~ ^-^

HC805 : Directed Reading Modern Chinese Song Lyric

Wow! This is indeed a very nice module. Not in term of scoring A, but instead many things can be learned from the lecture itself. Liang Wen Fu was the lecturer and during the lesson, he analyzed each song and explained it in detail to us. Apart from that, he also made the lesson very interesting by injecting humors now and then. Especially the Malaysian Chinese accent example, lOl! Booncheng and his malaysian friends burst out in laughter and if i were sitting beside him, we would be laughing our arse off too! But it seems like the rest weren't quite entertained by this joke, oh well, who cares.

I seriously enjoy his lesson and i believe he has taught me more which will certainly aid me in producing better songs in the near future. This semester is the time for fun and laughter and also the pursuit of my hobbies. Still looking around to find a group of people whom i can seriously have fun with and blend in nicely. In the meantime, i will continue to stick with my dear tutorial mates (aka NTU 3-yrs friends). They are a bunch of nice people to hang out with and its fun to be with them. Until i find a wack bunch of people whom we can do crazy things together, i will stick with the peace-loving peeps~~ ^-^b

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just feel like shouting................... JOONWYE I MISSED YOU~~~ So long no hear from you liao~~ Finally got chance talk cock with you again~~ Haizk~~~ All so old liao lorrr. Seriously... if last time i dunno you, i dunno what my life will turn out to be. Heh, whenever think of you, i will remember all the nice nice stuff, a really huge impact on my life. I also miss the restttt~~~ You all know who you are ba. Although i hardly keep in contact with anyone of you, but i still consider you all life time friends~~~ kel, jw, fang, han, yh, kb, jl (although kb and jl are non soccer player, wakaka), and many many more... (this is why i hate naming them out, because i tend to not be able to remember all at 1 go when i am emotional). Hopefully we will be seeing each other again soon. ^-^

Release of CGPA result to most CE yr2 and yr3 students!

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! A huge mistake made by one of the coordinator resulted in the release of CGPA result to most of the Computer Engineering year 2 and year 3 students. The victims whose CGPA were unwillingly released includes students from Computer Engineering, Computer Science and Double Degree (Computing and Business). They(the victims) are, or rather we are, all from either year 2 or year 3.

Judging from the list, it has been proven that, Computer Engineering is indeed, the KILLER course. Among those in year 3, only a couple made it above 4.5, where only one of the is a local student. There are still a FEW (i believed not more than 5) students who might be omitted from the list, since they are now on IA who has the potential of achieving the 4.5 feat. But the fact that the proportion of first class honor potential holders is SO minute disgusts me. Who are responsible for those underrated students who are deserving more than the grade that they should have? We students know the answer in our heart.

For those who have a score of more than 4.0, we need no more than our pair of hands to finish counting those who are on the list eligible for the 2nd upper honor. Oh, how great is that.

I was in fact happy to see the list, as it was a clear indication as to where i stood among my fellow coursemates. It is not the arrogance that drive me to applaud this mistake, but instead the sense of achievement that comes after 2 years. Without proper acknowledgement from the professors, we students have totally no idea how well or how badly we have done over the past 2 years. All you can hear is "I am not doing well", "My grades are horrible". We can always sense an uncertainty in people when they relate their capabilities to their grades and at times like this, we need confirmation from people with authority to keep us moving on. If it turns out that someone is really doing badly, the friends around can lend a helping hand with the knowledge of him/her being in a dire situation. Pardon me for saying that, at least for myself, i choose to help people selectively. Without the proper knowledge of how well or badly they are doing, i will decide who to help by judging if they are worthy or deserving, irregardless of their result. They can be someone better than me, or someone worse than me, as long as i think that they deserve good treatment, there goes. Many times there were this thought going through my mind, "Are you seriously as bad as you say?". If you gonna whine about how bad your result is when seeking help, the best thing to do in my opinion is to state your case clearly. A good way is to reveal your grades for the past subjects, so that it gives the person you are seeking help from an assurance that he/she is really helping someone out, not feeding a leecher.

Having said so much, i would also like to bring up another issue. DON'T BE SO SENSITIVE!!! What is the deal with "privacy"? People do ERR. Face it with pride! Whats the big deal with your result being released? Just think, who the hell would be interested in looking at your result without first knowing you in the first place??? There will only be 2 kind of person who will be looking at your result. One of them is someone who CARES about you. The 2nd one is someone who DISLIKES you for some reason or another. If your friend bothers to look at your result, it just shows that he/she is truly concerned about you. SERIOUSLY I SWEAR. In the case of myself, i looked at the result of those whom i really cared (although i did also look out for people who are scoring 4 and above out of curiosity). And also, i DID look at results of people whom i DISLIKED. Yup. So if you are embarrassed or angry about your result being released to people whom you are not on good terms with, go face the wall and think about why are you unliked. I am sure there are people who disliked me that are looking at my result, but so what? I don't even give a damn. Even if you come laughing at me if my result happened to be worse than yours, the only thing i can do is to 1) Keep quiet to reduce further humiliation or 2) Spurt vulgurities like there is no tomorrow and endure further humiliation. Personally, i might be all for option 2, but at times, if i am sober enough, option 1 will always be a better choice. By keeping mum, it not only will shut their mouth, but also a way to make them feel embarrassed as there will be no response to his senseless humiliation. But for friends who used this incident as a harmless joke, don't take it too hard too. I know it is not very nice for your friends to reveal the result, even though he has no intention of hurting you, but try to understand that only friends who care will bother to even crack this kind of joke. It is totally OK for you to be angry with him/her for a short period of time, but just bear in mind that he/she is truly concerned about you after you have regained your cool.

Day 2 : The Rude Awakening

Today is the 2nd day of school reopening~~~ Anyway, the title "Day 2 : The Rude Awakening" does not make any sense, as it was totally cooked up in hope to make it looks like a movie title. There was nothing especially special, or anything that is close enough to be linked to the title.

24 hours since the start of the new semester, and i have missed my first lecture. Damn. It was not as if i have not noticed the sounding of the alarm. But regretfully, my sub-conscious was awake but my brain refused to respond to it. And i even had a weird dream about my handphone being hacked. Oh gosh. I used my handphone as my source of alarm, but it didn't work out for me. Many times, i will "miss" the alarm and have a weird dream that is associated with waking up or alarm related stuff. I supposed everyone have the same encounter as me, as proven by Chin Guan as we shared our experiences in the lab. Wow, we're STILL in the lab despite all the lab sessions we had in the holidays. Oh well, i shouldn't complain at all since they were doing work while i was carrying out miscellaneous activities.

I endured a grueling presentation by Boon Cheng, where he tried to mimic a typical Singaporean carrying out a demonstration. It wasn't bad at all, and in fact, i enjoyed it! LOL! He is one of the few guys whom i knew has the ability to perform and entertain at the same time. His capability is undeniable, but he can be less DAO lor. Always acting cool, pui! And not to forget the several attempts by me to request an "arm wave" performance from him. He refused to do it. DUH! Dance so good then don't want to show, faint.

There are also a few unlucky incidents that took place, one of them is where i misplaced my folder in library 2. Arghhhhhhhh!!! It was a longgggg walk back to library 2. There was another bad news released to me earlier on in the day, something regarding elective. I am NOT ALLOWED to overload my AHSS AUs. Ohhhhhhhh, why like that leh? My dream is to take Chinese lyrics and Japanese in my NTU life, but the first part of the dream is GONE! No more chinese lyrics, sob sob. Nevermind, i will just attend the lesson when i feel like it to see what is being taught. For japanese, i am still trying hard to get a slot. ^-^

Just a few moments ago, was accompanying Boon Cheng at Can A. Actually, i think that he was trying to accompany me instead. lOl. Nice guy, but always doesn't admit his kindness. He was eating and looking at girls, while i was not eating but looking at girls. We saw so many cute and pretty girls, but they are all accompanied by CMI guys. Wah lao, not say we cek ark la, but the guys are really... appearance wise not appealing. I was wondering why am i hanging out with a guy?! Oh well, what to do leh. I decided to have fun this semester, screw the results and whatever academic stuff that is coming my way. I will just settle for a 2nd class upper, unless a miracle happens.

5 more minutes to the commencement of my business module BM102. Time to go! Going for Game Design INT220 later to accompany Boon Cheng. At the same time, revisit my good teacher who is in charge of the module! ^-^

Ciao!
