Of prices and hydrocarbons

As they say at Mastercard

Old Petrol Price : RM 1.92

New Petrol Price : RM 2.70 (effective midnight today)

Reaction by Malaysian public :












Pics were taken at the two petrol kiosks outside my house....the queue was so badass...ppl living in my area couldn't leave their houses...lol...the quality of the pics are so crummy because i didn't dare to use flash and didn't dare to go near...the drivers looked angry enough already...on the plus side...Ramly burger did a roaring trade....mmmmm...Ramly....

Copy Sketching!

This is what I've been up to...when i'm not dotaing =)

I call it copy sketching...obviously it involves ripping off other people's creative designs as fast as possible...naturally I chose only the sexiest concept art to copy from...hehe






All above designs by James Hawkins...check out his wicked site http://www.hawkprey.com/mainpage.htm


Anyway...I tried my hand at some original drawing...and came up with this two pieces of uh...less than stellar crap..or just plain crap...whatever...nuff' said.

Girls have absolute advantage over boys!!

read this article..

Girls are becoming as good as boys at mathematics, and are still better at reading


TRADITION has it that boys are good at counting and girls are good at reading. So much so that Mattel once produced a talking Barbie doll whose stock of phrases included “Math class is tough!”

Although much is made of differences between the brains of adult males and females, the sources of these differences are a matter of controversy. Some people put forward cultural explanations and note, for example, that when girls are taught separately from boys they often do better in subjects such as maths than if classes are mixed. Others claim that the differences are rooted in biology, are there from birth, and exist because girls' and boys' brains have evolved to handle information in different ways

Luigi Guiso of the European University Institute in Florence and his colleagues have just published the results of a study which suggests that culture explains most of the difference in maths, at least. In this week's Science, they show that the gap in mathematics scores between boys and girls virtually disappears in countries with high levels of sexual equality, though the reading gap remains.

Dr Guiso took data from the 2003 OECD Programme for International Student Assessment. Some 276,000 15-year-olds from 40 countries sat the same maths and reading tests. The researchers compared the results, by country, with each other and with a number of different measures of social sexual equality. One measure was the World Economic Forum's gender-gap index, which reflects economic and political opportunities, education and well-being for women. Another was based on an index of cultural attitudes towards women. A third was the rate of female economic activity in a country, and the fourth measure looked at women's political participation.

On average, girls' maths scores were, as expected, lower than those of boys. However, the gap was largest in countries with the least equality between the sexes (by any score), such as Turkey. It vanished in countries such as Norway and Sweden, where the sexes are more or less on a par with one another. The researchers also did some additional statistical checks to ensure the correlation was material, and not generated by another, third variable that is correlated with sexual equality, such as GDP per person. They say their data therefore show that improvements in maths scores are related not to economic development, but directly to improvements in the social position of women.

The one mathematical gap that did not disappear was the differences between girls and boys in geometry. This seems to have no relation to sexual equality, and may allow men to cling on to their famed claim to be better at navigating than women are. However, the gap in reading scores not only remained, but got bigger as the sexes became more equal. Average reading scores were higher for girls than for boys in all countries. But in more equal societies, not only were the girls as good at maths as the boys, their advantage in reading had increased.

This suggests an interesting paradox. At first sight, girls' rise to mathematical equality suggests they should be invading maths-heavy professions such as engineering—and that if they are not, the implication might be that prejudice is keeping them out. However, as David Ricardo observed almost 200 years ago, economic optimisation is about comparative advantage. The rise in female reading scores alongside their maths scores suggests that female comparative advantage in this area has not changed. According to Paola Sapienza, a professor of finance at Northwestern University in Illinois who is one of the paper's authors, that is just what has happened. Other studies of gifted girls, she says, show that even though the girls had the ability, fewer than expected ended up reading maths and sciences at university. Instead, they went on to be become successful in areas such as law.

In other words, girls may acquire an absolute advantage over boys as a result of equal treatment. This is something that society, more broadly, has not yet taken on board. Mattel may wish to take note that among Teen Talk Barbie's 270 phrases concerning shopping, parties and clothes, at least one might usefully have been, “Dostoevsky rocks!”

btw..as expected from anything controversial, there are many criticism towards this particular research published in Science..but well, this makes into a good piece of dinner table discussion eh??

Supply and demand

Recently, the National Islamic Students Association of Malaysia condemned the Malaysian female school uniform (more specifically the white blouse) as being too darn sexy. Among other comments, the vice president of the association claimed that the blouses became a distraction to men whether they liked it or not and that it led to babies born out of wedlock and prostitution. Malaysian schoolgirls were also critized for using their darn sexy white blouses to "attract men to them" thus seeing them "getting molested, having premarital sex and all sorts of things".

On the other hand, we have the MP from Pasir Mas, Mr. Ibrahim Ali suggesting that a large campaign encouraging women to accept polygamy be held to end the increasing problem of divorce in Malaysia, or in his very own words , "Such problems (divorces) happen because women cannot accept polygamy. From a preventive point of view, what about doing a big campaign so that women can accept polygamy?" He further added that ," Women did not understand that when they were pregnant for nine months, or had "problems" when they hit their 50's, their men still wanted to "have fun". So the man wants to marry again, and the wife gets jealous and asks for divorce."

Two seperate problems you say? Not really, my economics training instantly detected the two cases above as a classic case of mismatch of information with regards to supply and demand. Lets see, in case two, men are demanding more sex, and in case one, those young nubile high school girls in their darn sexy white blouses who are out there attracting men are in effect, supplying sex. So somewhat akin to frictional unemployment, the right sex is not being supplied to the people who are demanding it, thus leading to molest, premarital sex and divorce!! The way I see it, students who are attracting men by employing their wily charms as well as their darn sexy white uniforms should be made to marry men who "wanna have fun". This effectively kills two birds with one stone (the above idiom was not chosen for the sake of sexual innuendo....yeah rite). You see, such horny young females would most likely be more receptive towards polygamy because (and I'm taking an extreme leap of faith here by stereotyping them as such, but politicians do it all the time anyway) this might even give them the chance to engage in legal orgies! Plus, if they get married to said men wanting more sex, then the problem of premarital sex would also be solved because by then, all sex would be strictly marital and legally wholesome. Furthermore, the relatively young age of these schoolgirls would guarantee a safe period of around 30+ years before they start having "problems" in their 50's ( product has good shelf life)

So you see, there's no need to change the uniforms or hold campaigns to encourage polygamy, just set up a matchmaking service between schoolgirls in sexy white uniforms and older married men who wanna "have fun" and Malaysia will be a much happier place to live in. Make love not war as they say. Peace out!

Always



V1:
No more in uniform
No more in pretty ponytails
No more the squeaky chairs
No more school blues and all that jazz

PC:
Where are we now?
We're chasing after stars within our reach
So we'll be
Somewhere out there living out our dreams

V2:
No more the innocent
No more the boy and girl naive
No more the wanderer
We all have found someone to be

C:
Years go by and yet
I still remember
How we held onto memories
Yet they will fade
Yet I remember
And I will always

V3:
So we're all grown up now
Make up and dress up and all that
Neckties and flowers
And all that jazz

-------

Written for all you guys out there. :-)

I don't think this will start the ball rolling, but...

Hello, everyone!

This is Florence here. I can see that we are all busy with our own lives, and that this blog is undoubtedly *ahem... koff... koff* resting in peace.

Nothing much to say, really. Just that I miss all of you people, and finally moving on with life is weird. Before yesterday, I had this weakness of holding on to good old memories, but I suppose all happy endings must come to an end, whatever that means.

Anyways. :-) To all those who are taking exams soon, study hard! You can do it, like, duh! cos you're Science One material. Just keep at the books, people! (I sound like a horse-driver but nevermind...)

And to those people who are having spring breaks or Easter breaks or honeymoon breaks or whatever breaks,

LUCKY YOU!!!


You better enjoy them to the max on my behalf, because I only got 2 measly... I mean, marvelous days off. Oh, well. One mustn't complain. :-P

Take care, everyone.

Don't grow up too fast. I might not recognize you when we meet again!

XOXOXOXO
Flo.

Food for Thought

Food for thought 1:
Rachel once asked me:" what if tomorrow u're going to die....."

What if tomorrow you ARE going to die??
What will you do??

Will you meet up with friends, play and spend all your money??
Or will you finish up all the work that you have yet to do..like go CHS take your 1119 cert..like return all the books u borrowed from ppl..
or will you go like "what the hell man, whatever i do, it doesn't make any difference..so y do anything? just sleep slack until u die.."
actually, you can do something that will make a lot of difference..spend your last day buying LOTS of insurance =p

FOOD FOR THOUGHT 2:
Y on earth are the people producing the things most essential for our survival-- food --most often the ppl that are the poorest??
I know you will say: yeah..its demand and supply, almost everyone can be farmers...not everyone can be doctors bla bla bla..
but still..

y do financial traders, who we can totally live without, and who doesn't do much good(at least none that i know of) earn so DAMN MUCH!! while farmers(at least in the third world where there are less subsidies unlike the west) are struggling to survive!!
i mean..those ppl that worked be4...do u think those working as waiters, working in offices... deserve to earn more than construction workers??? or your maids???

Capitalism, i tell u..benefits ppl like us..

Malaysia truly Asia

Wow... this just keeps getting better and better...
http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/Sunday/SundayInterview/20071028074831/Article/index_html

The life cycle of an ex-con...i mean ex-student

Fun things you learn on the internet... I'm the owner of a mysterious Energy Enterprise that set up a blog but didn't bother putting up any posts (www.xingji.blogspot.com), plus my name is Sammy.

Anyway, I think I'll just give you a brief outline on how i'm killing time these days waiting for my A-level results to come out...

10.00 am : Wake up
10.30 am : Get out of bed (Ask no questions, tell no lies)
10.45 am : Brush teeth
10.50 am : Eat breakfast (Warning. May contain traces of egg and dairy products)
11.00 am : Activity*
13.00 pm : Lunch (Warning. May contain traces of animal fat)
13.30 pm : Activity**
17.00 pm : Accompany mum to pick up sister from work (Weekends not included)
18.00 pm : Dinner
19.00 pm : Activity***
20.00 pm : Evening news
20.30 pm : Yoo Hee the Witch/MTV
21.30 pm : Activity****
00.00 am : Go upstairs
00.05 am : Brush teeth
00.10 am : Turn off lights
00.11 am : Lie on bed
00.12 am : Think
01.30 am : Sleep
04.30 am : Wake up from nightmare*****

* Shopping/CNY prep/House maintenance/Sudden urgent chore (these pop up fairly often)
** Resumption of previous activity. Sometimes, if mum is not home, I dota till I throw up.
*** On weekdays, mum and sis watch Singaporean dramas. I sneak an hour online.
**** More house maintenance/CNY prep/something will crop up
***** Generally consists of exam nightmares regarding econs, physics, and oddly enough, pendidikan moral. Sometimes, disturbing childhood incidents resurface to haunt me...

In between my packed daily schedule (yeah rite), I have managed to run a grand total of three (3) times (adios muscleman), learn cooking from my mum, went for an undang seminar (lihong says only 6 hours wasted wor), fantasized about starting my own comic strip, bitch slapped myself out of it, and started fantasizing about other stuff instead. Sometimes I remember to bathe. I plan to watch Sweeney Todd and Meet the Spartans next. Any takers (I promise to bathe first)?

P.S. Wall's mini popper chocolate flavour tastes really good.
P.S.S. I need a haircut.
P.S.S.S. I tag Shu Haur, Nicholas and Chun Wei. Plus I retag all those who've already been tagged but not posted...you lazy ****** you

****** : people - Mammals of the species Homo Sapiens, sometimes bipedal. Part-time bloggers (they just need encouragement, like an AK-47 to the neck)

Rachel Ooi: My turn! =)

WOW. Suddenly there's a whole flurry of activity here!! No one can say we 5s1-ers aren't efficient people man!!

And hmmm.... I'm supposed to update about myself. Well, basically, *grins sheepishly*, I've been... around... for the last 6 months or so. Most of you whom I've kept in touch with already know most of it, but let's just refresh for those who don't alright?

June- Rachel finishes A-level at Taylor's.
July- Rachel goes on mission trip to Cambodia. Rachel volunteers at Kiwanis Down Syndrome Home.
August- Rachel goes to work as a temporary full-time telemarketer selling personal accident insurance(Those who don't know what's that, ask me. Heck, ask me about insurance! If my company did do their job properly, and I my homework, I have quite a bit of insurance knowledge in my head =D )
late September- Rachel stops work to study for SAT and to apply UCAS. (For those who're going to ask why didn't I apply the year before- long, complicated story.)
October- Rachel sits for SAT1. And she can't remember what she did for the rest of that month=)
November- Rachel can't remember anything productive she did for the month, except study for SAT2 (Do remember that it's almost 5 months since she did any real studying and that she has a very very short term memory). She recalls a myriad of movies, yumcha sessions, singing k sessions and blogging =)
December- Rachel slaves through US applications and essays, attends church camp and visits the whole of North-East China.
January- Rachel goes back to volunteering at Kiwanis as a quarter-time volunteer (that's what u call someone who volunteers less than what a part-timer would right?).

The future- foggy and uncertain. But Rachel will definitely be a medical student at the Monash Malaysia campus for the February semester. After that? My guess is as good as yours. =)

I don't think anyone posted up the December reunion photo here, so I shall do the honours =D

If you can't recognise some of the people, you know you're in DEEP trouble and should seek emergency treatment at this blog immediately. What treatment? Ask Flo =P

I'm done! OH yES, one last thing- see my name on your right? All it takes is one click. And you'll be on your way to my blog! One of the few wonders of technology I actually love... besides my handphone, msn, freely accessible Happy Tree Friends and other stuff I'm too lazy to mention. Maybe I don't love them enough...

Ah yes the only reason I did this tag in the first place- I TAG:
1) crap can't think of anyone- Timothy (if the busy man finds time to visit this site)
2) Li Hong (at least I'm certain he visits)
3) Sue Lynn ( no idea whether she visits or not)
4) Yin Shean ( She might visit )
5) Wai Lam ( I think he visits)
6) Sue Bee ( I have no idea)
7) Xin Ni (Likewise)
8) I know I'm cheating =)

YES I'm really done. Happy posting!!

MISS YOU ALL!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU!!

With love,
Rachel Ooi

P.S. There yi ning... a long, long post, just the way you like it.

The 5S1 '05 Revival Tag - Caleb Passing The Baton

Me ar? Well, to find out more about me visit my blog . Why would you want to do so you ask? Well, because it's Visit cnxc323 '08. So pop along my blog to read about what I usually eat in the jolly ol' boring city of Southampton.


Well, if you don't want to read my blog even after that Visit adverts we are so exposed to, I can give you a summary: Basically what you can find in my blog is a gazillion photos of pasta as I eat that like, well, alot. Yea, sick of eating my own pasta already as nice as they taste. Muahaha.

So anyway, yesterday was my last paper for my semester one exam. Was horrid. But oh well, Hope I did good enough. For those of you not in the know, I'm doing Electronics Engineering in the University of Southampton. Why am I here? Well, coz it's THE best school for electronics, outside the US and I am just lazy to apply to the US. So there. I'm here. It takes about 1.5 hours to get to Southampton by train here and trains here costs two bombs or £22 to be exact, AFTER discount. Yea... I shan't be taking the train no more, I'll take the bus more often.

Haven't seen no snow yet since I got here. GLOBAL WARMING. Bah. Thanks to everyone and their wasteful habits I don't get no snow HERE in the YOO KAY. So yea. Stop being wasteful everyone. Global warming WILL destroy us all! Recycle, turn off lights if you don't need them, turn your aircond down to 23 degrees celcius and walk instead of drive.

Ok, now that I've got my ESC rant out of the way, I tag Xing Ji, Xing Ji, Xing Ji, Shaun, Sui Yuan, Si YI and heck, whoever name isn't here, you'll have to do it anyway. So please do. I tag 5S1.

P.S. I tag Yingxu also. And Elaine and Darell. But their presence on this blog is just.. non-existant.

Spreading the word

To all those who have ever wanted to do something against the speeding buses of malaysia...
http://jayelleenelial.com/?p=551

I've been tagged.

Well.

Where do I start?

You guys know I'm in Prague, yeah?

Yeah I'm probably the only CHS-ian studying in Prague, come to think of it.

I should feel so privileged. Hehe...

Yeah, so far, it's been a blessing... I'm learning a lot - about growing, about taking charge of your life, and currently I'm learning discipline and how not to depend so much on other people, though I like to sometimes.

Maybe this abroad thingymajigo experience is helping me with growing up and shaping me into someone... Growing up definitely. I bought my first lipstick today if you want a good example. :-P (I usually borrow my mom's.) And in other aspects too... there is this sense of freedom that if not properly controlled can rule your life. For example, I think I might have been going out too often and not sticking to my books when I should. Which has to change from today onwards... if I want to get home by this summer.

And the people I meet... It's amazing... well, besides a huge Malaysian group, I have met people from all over... from NZ right to Tanzania right to Slovakia right to China right to America right to Ukraine, etc. etc. Prague is like a melting pot of races. Especially in the city where the foreigners are many.. In the smaller towns, we rarely find foreigners, though. It's just amazing... and most of them I met at church.. I'm attending an International church which pretty much feels like home. And I've found a good group of friends whom I am able to blend with. :-) Thank God.

School is okay, too. I've got some pretty cool lecturers, and their English put some of ours to shame, I'd say. I wish I could speak Chinese as well as they can speak English. But oh well... that reminds me, I've really got to have some sort of coaching when I get back. I seriously HAVE TO LEARN MANDARIN. I know, I know... what with you guys speaking English half the time, I didn't learn much. XD

But I love you guys all the same. :-)

Otherwise... yeah. That's pretty much it for now, at least. I miss high school. I just came back from a choir by a congregation of more than 10 high schools from all over the world which blew me off my feet... I'll post the link on my blog sometime soon and you guys can go check youtube. And they did it all in 3 days, can you believe it. It really made me miss school and the chances that I had to be involved in the singing community.

Righto. Have fun y'all. And take care. I'll see you around. :-)

Lotsaluv,
Flo.

P.S. To those dears who have been keeping this blog alive... what would I do without you guys. *hugs*

Revive 5s1 blog tag!

Alrite, this blog is DYING (if it's not already 99.9999% dead. wait, that still constitutes as dying. alrite) and we dun wanna see it 1200% dead do we? (like, um, what's with our facebook group??)

to think there were 50 of us people in 5s1, yet only less then half that number of blogposts. or those with a blogger account here, for that matter. sad :(

(those without blogger account, or have no idea how to blog here, leave your email address in a comment, will ya?)

So let's start a tag here. let's call it... The Revive 5s1 Blog Tag!

THE RULE: whoever who posted here after being tag, get to tag 3 people! And the tagged/tagee have to post here.

update people on what has been going on in your life, how you doing, k? i'm sure most of you started uni. or will soon. lots of thing to say, right right??

and don't even try to sneak out of your tag by posting some random words you string together half drunk/asleep/awake or just some random funny youtube video you found. think of it as a sort of open letter, if that helps. and pics! pics are goooood.

understand?

capisce?

oh, how about tagging a non blogger. get them addicted to the blogging bug!! yay!

oh and if someone was tagged, but never post, feel free to retag them again and again if you have to and bug them until they do ya? ^^

let the fun begin! i tag Flo, Rachel Ooi and Caleb!
(ha.. serve you people rite for trying to tag me in the chatbox in the 1st place :p)

Randomness

Well, I went back to CHS today for KRS' orientation and OMG, there was alot of people in school and on a Saturday morning. Maybe I hadn't been to school for a long time, or maybe it was the first activity Saturday for the month or maybe just, well I miss school.

Anyway, I saw Xin Ni and she was there to collect her SPM cert (it really is kinda late, but who haven't collect you better do before it turns into some rough paper to be used by people like Li Hong who don't give a damn where they do their workings), and then since I just remembered about the 1119 cert, I too followed her to the office.

Mr Tham (remember him ?) was the only teacher there and at first, he asked us to come back during office hours which were 9-5 on weekdays. But maybe it was Xin Ni's undeniable charm that persuaded him to rammage through the drawers to search for the certs. He asked which year and she said 2005, which made him look shocked for awhile.

Anyway, I too collected my 1119 cert and was surprised to see we were the first 2 people to collect the certs. Its nice by the way, better than the SPM cert. So for those who haven't collected them, collect your 1119 cert !!!

So ya, that was basically it. I realise CHS during the day and on the nights I go back to play basketball is very different. I was just there last night and it was all so quiet, as compared to this morning....

Anyway, don't forget CHS, do visit some time soon. And collect your cert.

Cheers

5S1 Gathering

I know most of you aren't in Malaysia but recently most of the S'pore people are back. So this is mainly a gathering to meet up with them. Can you guys help to organise ? I've already discussed with Yin Shean so just contact her.

Any help will be welcomed and please make it happen. Thanks. Call Li Hong too, he's free.

Dear Fellow 5S1ers,

Well, if possible, DON'T blog. If you can't stick to that then, well make sure you blog about stuff like, chocolates or teddy bears. Make sure you don't write anything at all about important people. And NEVER EVER JOKE ON YOUR BLOG. Seriously. Coz like it or not, Big Brother reads your blog too. And Big Brother takes everything you write seriously. Make your blog as dull and dead as possible so that no one even wants to read it. But then again, this blog is rather dull and dead and people still come and visit. So yea. Don't blog. If you do blog, make sure you blog like a professional, you know, references, evidences of who said what or proof of the fact that you've just stated. If you haven't any evidence to back up your statement, don't blog it. The gist of what I'm trying to say is: You have no freedom of blog. So don't.

Tis' the middle of Alevels.... lalala

I think I am officially lazy and screwed up... not that you guys didn't know it before...just that now it's official...it lends an extra weight of importance to it (just a smidgen, mind)... So I'm in the middle of my A-levels... really...smack dab...like equal amounts of papers sitting before and after me...and what do I do? Watch Stardust at 10pm on a weekday....wtf... mind you, 2 of my other friends were just as crazy as me (nearly missed the last bus back...but oh is the movie great)... The only difference is that post-stardust, they've started studying again...while I am...blogging...reading blogs... and watching horrible youtube renditions by one steven lim of Singapore Idol (In)fame... the purpose of this post? Just another attempt at escapism to postpone my reading of econs... And the worst part.... I'm not even worried... Gosh I'm sick! (Ironically, I'm worried about not being worried...like meta-meta worry)....ahh...lunch time...another morning wasted... *pop*

ADAKAH INI JAWAPAN MUKTAMAD ANDA?

5S1 reunion 2007

Saturday, 1st Sept 2007 - night (say start around 7-ish?)
Potbless Dinner @ Timothy's house

(directions will be given later after everything's 100% confirmed)

We're having POTBLESS. Means EVERYONE has to bring SOMETHING so that we can ALL have ENOUGH food to eat.

To make sure no one brings the same food, we're probably gonna delegate instead of going on a voluntary basis. So do confirm your attendance quick so that we can plan everything efficiently and quickly!!!

Confirm with me by the following means:
Flo

or anywhere visible on this blog.

(SOK KENG! YEN TINK! ANYONE EXPERIENCED IN LOGISTICS! Can help me with the estimation? I'm scared I underestimate or overestimate the amount of food and drinks... Haven't organised big-scale meals in a long time!)

Last but not least, thank you all for your kind responses so far. I've gotten responses from almost everybody (with the exception of these people):

YinShean, CherHui, KaiJun, Patrick, KiaSheng.

Weiiii... Friends out there! Make sure your fellow 5S1-ers know, man. Our goal is to make this event a success, remember?

Sooooooooo,

Together, let's make this a success!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :)

Monday, August 20, 2007

It's time to reunite!

Heya, people!

So everyone who's leaving will be leaving soon.
So everyone's gonna miss everybody.



...So we gotta meet up.


5S1 reunion 2007

Suggestions so far:

Dates available:

C) Saturday, 1st Sept 2007 - noon / night
D) Sunday, 2nd Sept 2007 - noon / night

(We'll plan around these dates first. If most can't make it, we'll push it towards September. But hopefully everyone can make it lah. Otherwise reunion tak syok wei!!!)

Ideas of venue & agenda:

A) Potbless @ your house???
We promise to prepare & clean up & take out the trash at the end of the day! We also promise not to kill each other within your premises. Promise!
(Further suggestion was that we play boardgames / cards)

If your parents allow us to use your house, pls contact Flo (0162480088).

B) Picnic @ some park???
(Further suggestion was the Lake Gardens.)

C) Mid Valley -.-;;
(This is just a back-up plan... A lot of people are a bit sick & tired of the same old, same old...)

D) Ice-skating @ Sunway Pyramid

E) Just meet up at CHS & go for Chicken Rice.




Yep. Leave comments here to make your choices, or scream out your views in the chatterbox beside, or send me a msg.

Together, let's make this a success!!!

Okay, that sounded corny. But really la. It's really tough to cook up a reunion unless people reply.

So...

Together, let's make this a success!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :)



P.S. When are you Singaporean fellas coming back? And when is everyone flying off? If we know more details we can maximise attendance & the faces we get to meet again.

============================

LOOK OUT FOR UPDATES ON THIS EVENT HERE!

1) Everyone okay with the 2nd Sept? If we're doing potbless, most likely it'll be in the evening.

2) People who have not responded yet...

RachaelTeh, CheaMing, WernChiet, KianWah, ShuHaur, ChunWei, Caleb.

3) People I have no idea how to reach... those who have them on MSN (I've not been online for a very long time) or their phone numbers, please please please help to pass them the message... I'd sms everyone and do the follow up, but it's really expensive for me to do it alone!

HuaChu, YinShean, SueBee, WenChee, WinJean, SueLynn, ThngHuei, CherHui, BinYun, LiSian, XinNi, Jordan, WeiHao, MeiWen, KaiJun, PatrickChia, WengSoon, HoMeng, KiaSheng.

4) We're hoping to be able to use Yen Tink's old house. It'll be good cos there's a park nearby so if we wanna play games (Do we wanna play games? SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE?) we can use the park. My house is really much smaller than hers, supposing everyone turns up, we'd be banging into each other constantly, which is not really a good idea for those who are claustrophobic)

LATEST UPDATE: A million gazillion thanks to Tim who has allowed us to use his house, too! (Claustrophobics, you guys can stop holding your breath now.)

5) I need help! Especially if it's gonna be a potbless thing. Anyone free to help me (as in organizing)? Pretty please with cherries and marshmallows and gummy bears laden with cream and sugar and cinnamon on top? Please mail/sms/call me! I'll be eternally grateful.

6) Hope to see you guys there! Wherever it happens! Lol...

Should we move to Facebook???

Hey, guys... I'm wondering whether we should shift our "class blog" to a "class network/page" on www.facebook.com

Not sure how many people still come here, but as long as I get 5 yes-es, I'll just veto this suggestion. :-P

It'll be easier to get updates on how we're all doing on Facebook. If blogs are 2-D, Facebook is like, 6-D or something. Friendster is a measly 3-D.

(Am I not making sense here?)

Oh, yeah... and it'll be LOTS easier to maintain. I bet those who have Facebook log into their Facebooks a thousand times more often than popping by this site.

So, yeah. 5 yes-es, and we'll shift.

Have a nice day.

Thursday, July 05, 2007

lunch, anyone?

Hey guys...

Mid Valley
11 a.m.
Friday (tomorrow)

Let's meet up!
at err... err... umm... Starbucks? (suggested by Shu Haur)
Then we eat lunch somewhere... besides Kim Gary cos Yen Tink wants someplace new. Hehe...

RSVP (if you're coming! Do come): Friday morning

One Year After SPM

Can't believe its actually one year after SPM..

Today my friend and I were feeling bored so we browsed through our friendster's friends' photos.. and he showed me pictures of his friends which he said has "turned bad".

This got me thinking..
What did i turn into in this 1 year in Singapore?
Have i changed??
well..i honestly dun know..if u ask me i would say that i haven changed...maybe junior colleges in Singapore ins't conducive to change..because we still pretty much operate in the "school atmosphere" though i certainly learnt a thing of two in my one year in Singapore..

To me, a lot of ppl haven changed a bit since last year...
like Yen Tink...haha especially Yen Tink...I thought after a year in Taylors maybe she would have a boyfriend...lol..Win Jean, Chun Wei, Zhen Yuan...
haha all haven changed...

And a lot of ppl have changed too..
like Wei Kean..
haha..he seriously suddenly become very different from wat i know..lol

Well..so here is my question to everyone..
who do u think have changed a lot in this 1 year??
pls post!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I'm back!!!

Hey, guys... I'm finally back after being away for so long. :D

...and it seems pretty quiet over here.

Anyway, I wanted to write out this incident for sometime now:

Well, see, early this year we had to do the food test experiment for Bio. The most interesting food test was the iodine test for lipids. We were supposed to drop, specifically stated in the question, 15 drops (3 by 5) of iodine solution onto a white tile. Well, whaddayouknow... we practically filled the whole surface of the tile with about 30 drops, so much that a little jerk would cause all of the drops to combine to form a puddle of yellowish aqueous goo in the middle of the tile.

Right. Next we mixed the enzymes and substrates together, started the stopwatch and here we go... testing the mixture for ... *something*.

"Eh, is this blue colour, arr?"
"I think this is blue la... I see my tile got black spots."
"Apasal tak dapat ni?"
"Man! I don't have enough iodine drops! Ish... Have to restart all over again."
"Haaah... How come yours took 5 minutes only? Mine already pass 15 minutes, still no result!"


And the phrase of the day was...

"You mean we're supposed to do it until it remains yellow? No wonder I never got blue colour!!!"

:P

__________________________________________

I'm so happy AS is over... but only to be reminded that A2 is here to stay for 6 months. I wonder if I'll have time for anything besides studying after my hols. (Oh, I'll be here until Sun next week. Loveaduck.)

You know what's scary? How everything's flying past me so fast I'm left breathless without having a chance to recuperate before another gust of time blows me away to another zone. I just met my neighbours 2 days before.

I couldn't recognise my neighbour's youngest sister. All the once-midgets along my row of houses have turned into young ladies and men overnight.

That made me think a little: I wonder - over this period of a year leaving school - how much have I changed? How much have you guys changed? When we meet up years from now, would we still be able to engage in conversation and understand each other without hedges growing in between - not because we failed to keep in touch, but because we don't have anything in common left behind for us to build back our once-strong friendships on?

When I left my primary school, I kept looking back fondly at memories shared with friends: friends who scrawled FRIENDS FOREVER on my autograph book, friends who I grew up and shared secrets with, friends I didn't want to lose, but constantly called and wrote to, so as to maintain the comradeship. I thought that primary school would be this era stucked forever in my memory, something I would never be able to replace or run away from.

But now, 7 years ago seems so distant. Meaningful and precious, but still a mere collection of memories. Of all the primary friends I've been acquainted with, I still keep in touch with only a few. The others have just... disappeared. Maybe it is my fault that I didn't maintain contact with them. Maybe we just grew up. Maybe it's just the way things were meant to be.

Years have passed, and many of them have changed. It's this weird feeling - you know they're still them, but in a way, you no longer know them.

I think college has changed me. It has definitely (and drastically) altered my perception about life, and made me think harder. When you see me today, I'm not sure if I'll act like the same person you knew a year ago. I may be more sceptical, more rational (and we all know rationality leads to over-evaluation half the time), more mature. But then again, I might be more wary, not trusting anyone because I know how faulty the human being can be, more experienced on putting on a mask to hide all my thoughts beneath what people can decipher from the surface.

But then, you might have changed, too. Most of us (well, not me) might have different interests and priorities now *hint hint*. (And, believe me, relationship does change mindsets - either for better or worse. I should know.) Most of us may have physically changed and our tastes in fashion, music, lifestyle may heavily influence the way we think and act, when we're away from our turqoise pinafores and navy green trousers and rules and school bells.

Personally, I don't like the idea of growing up. Primarily because it means we have to face consequences to our actions. We are on our own now, no longer shielded by our parents (to a certain extent) or a knitted-community (school). We are individuals. We are adults. Makes me long for the old days where responsibility is measured by the homework we hand in.

Sometimes, I have this gnawing sadness within me - that one day we might not be able to come together as friends, but only as schoolmates... only as people with once-common background. Sometimes, I wonder if I'll remember and be remembered. Sometimes, I wonder if I'll ever see some of you guys again in this lifetime, or will we merely remain as people who shared a photograph and a classroom with.

They say distance makes a heart grow fonder. Until now, when I think of my days as a 5S1-er, tears fill my eyes, as I yearn for the memories I left behind and the joy I accumulated in the limited pages of my journal which snatch me back into reminiscence readily.

I hope we haven't changed... too much.

Missing you guys.

You probably don't wanna read this...

What's with sexual innuendo these days? A PSA campaign in the USA called "Women's Voices. Women's Votes" is getting female celebrities to tell people about "the first time they did it" to get apathetic voters to the polling stations...Some say it's empowering, while others... In any case, I sat down to think about it but instead of coming up with a moral hypothesis on the whole issue, I got attacked by a disturbing bout of creativity...normally i wouldn't post something like this but an idle blog is the 21st century's devil's playground.

A NASTY SCRIPT

TAKE 1

The scene is a park...a beautiful park...green...with a non hazy azure sky hanging lazily above it...in walks boy and girl, who are in turn walking their dogs...

BOY: Hey, my dog kinda likes your dog...

GIRL: Aww...How sweet..

BOY: You know, Confucious he says, anything my dog likes is good enough for me.

GIRL: Are you saying you wanna hump my dog?

BOY: Hmmm...it is quite..(realises he is speaking his thoughts out aloud and glances hurriedly at girl)...er...NO...definitely NO!

GIRL: Stop petting my dog mister...

CUT

.......................................................................................................................................

TAKE 2

BOY: Hey, your dog kinda likes my dog...

GIRL: My dog's gay.

BOY: Well so is mine, except that he's also a transexual.

GIRL: You mean a gay dog trapped in a female's body?

BOY: It is rather complicated isn't it?

GIRL: Wow...that must be a real bitch...

BOY: You don't say....

(Both stare at their complicated dogs for awhile)

BOY: Say, you free this Saturday?

GIRL: Dinner and Movie?

BOY: 6 o' clock then and it's a deal....

GIRL: Deal...

BOY: Is your dog really gay?

GIRL: No.

BOY: Oh ****

Milky justice

Ever been robbed? well how bout 3 times in a row....welcome to my life

OK...this may not seem serious to some but my hostel is now host to a (insert favourite expletive here) milk thief(s)(is this grammatically acceptable?ah heck)..

The story goes something like this....I usually buy milk in twin packs...so when i'm drinking one halfway, the other unopened one just mysteriously disappears... *poof* from the fridge. It's like David Copperfield just got pasteurised. so I get pretty upset..You would too if ur milk gets stolen...so on saturday...when i bought my milk again...i decide to open both at the same time...in the small hope that if the thief sees that both are open...he'll leave them alone....

On sunday, i go open the fridge...guess what i see...both cartons opened, with one of them lying on its side, so that its contents had spilled all over the fridge, turning into yogurt. It's at times like this that you wished that you had learnt more languages...so that you can swear in them all. Not only were these bastards thieves...they were also spiteful slobs who spilled milk all over the communal fridge.

Then yesterday...my friend saw two people holding a carton of fruit juice getting into the lift...fruit juice which looked suspiciously like his...He goes to the fridge and check...true enough...all three packs of his juices were missing...we later found the other two in the dustbin outside the pantry..apparently they just finished it there and then...maybe they needed the fibre bad...so now we know the identity of our thieves....and are faced with a dilemma....my fren reported the matter to the hostel...but he doubts that any action will be taken because

a. he didn't write his name on the cartons
b. the boarders are non scholars, ie self funded singaporeans

meanwhile...we decided to think of a way to get those thieves to embrace lactose intolerance and came up with this idea....we buy another packet of milk...or juice....stuff it with laxatives..and put it in the fridge again....only thing is...we're not sure if it's really a good idea...if the thieves get hurt real bad... we might get into trouble...and then there's such a thing called karma as well...

So here's the dilemma...should we just wait for the hostel to investigate, should we expose them ourselves, or should we give them one helluva bowel experience?

(YX suggests that we shit them first, then expose them later, but i'll like to hear what the rest of u guys have to say about this)

Saturday, September 23, 2006

For those of you who made it to his house to bid Shu Haur a farewell, here are the memories immortalized in photos.

For those of you who didn't bother to attend, here are the photos for you to regret not going. Bwahaha...

Shu Haur gave us a great show that day. Excellent host too! Enjoy yourself in Wales my friend.

P.P.S. Quality of the photos are crap. (coz I used the wrong settings... photographer's worst nightmare) However, what I lost in quality I hope i gained in quantity. Bleh.

Hello, people :)

How's everyone doing? Hope everything's fine.

Haha... My mid sem ended 2 weeks ago, but I doubt I'll get my results before the next exam, which is in less than 3 weeks. (PRE AS!!! *SCREAMS*!!!) Hopefully I get all As though, I'm not sure what I'll get for Chem and Phys.

Too much to do, too little time. Ironic. I had too much time before college started. And now I don't have time at all!

Okay, since I'm trying to minimise talking about how strenous studying is over here... Let me tell you more about my college.

SMELL

Why is it that perpetually everywhere I go, I tend to have to face weird smells? The computer lab smells musty, a part of the walkway smells pungent (seriously... it epitomises the word 'sengit'... worse than chloroform), from my room I smell haze on some evenings, the chem lab smells of sulphur half the time... thank goodness for homeostasis. XD

SOUNDS

There are a LOT of nocturnal sounds in my college late at night... The lizards cluck so loudly they give me sudden frights in the night. And there's the infamous Screaming In The Middle of the Night. Sometimes, there's Daniel Beddingfield, too. And the gush of the waterfall exercising physics laws at ungodly hours (the pressure is directly proportional to height one): there's no pipe for water flow, it just cascades down and hits the cement ground on the floor of my apartment (see: Principle of Conservation of Energy).

MERDEKA

Our country's Independence Night celebration saw me seated on the balcony of my classmate's apartment, munching burgers, eating Oreos, and watching the little celebration in front of the main block of my college. It made me miss CHS's brilliant dramas. I still remember Hitler from 2 years back! But I realised this was the first time ever I was celebrating something that is supposed to bear so much meaning 49 years ago. However, what flummoxed me was why the Pengarah of my college and the Pegawai Daerah Sepang was so un-intune with the Merdeka theme. Their speeches were loaded with praises of KTT. :P Presentations were simple, mostly done by the Diploma students. But yeah, they were okay. There was this funny dance... 1 guy surrounded by 6 girls. Very funny! Then nearing the chime of 12, the lecturers all went up the make-shift stage and did the countdown. Then it drizzled. :)

Why's everyone rushing to get attached all of a sudden after high school? Seems like a trend. XD

Take care, everyone.
