Ding! Ding! Ring! Ring!

Today's astro presentation, I only got one conclusion, that is damn funny! Why? Coz all of us machiam in XXX Idol for audition, if you are lousy, then Judge will "Ding" the bell and you have to stop, except that Prof "Ding" us for over time. Each group only had 10 minutes, so divide by no. of people in your group, example, my group 5, so each speaker had 2 minutes to speak, and any unused will be "carry forward" for the next speaker. Everytime the Prof "Ding", the people inthe Lt will just laugh coz the atmosphere was really funny and those speakers also paiseh. There was this guy, he didn'ty care and try to finish, and Prof was "Ding Ding" the bell like an angry Judge who was desperately to "Ding" the lousy contestant away. I left the lecture right after my group's presentation. I was the last speaker and I thought my conclusion was hilarious. We were doing a topic of comparing 2 telescopes, and in a haste (coz can go back very excited), I said, "No matter old or new telescope, both are 2 good telescopes taht help us to know more about the universe." I was suppose to say the new complement the old, dunno why ended like black and white cats.

And YES! I got my Nokia 7360 le, but I got the coffee brown instead of the warm amber coz they dun have stocks le. The blue and brown match looks nice also... :) Just that the warm amber is more feminine and has the flower engraving, the coffee brown had leaves pattern and seems like is to attract guys to buy, like couple match. I love my phone, my first camera phone leh.

天才与白痴仅一线之差

This entry was supposed to be written last year when I was blog crazy, but I think I got busy with exams preparation and forgot about it. Today, it resurfaced when I was refering to past year tutorials for solutions when I saw a footnote I wrote: "天才 doesn't know what is equivalent sign, very duhz!" It was a note to remind me what to blog, coz I was rather bewildered that this guy whom I thought quite smart didn't know what was the equivalent sign and asked the Prof, it was and = sign with ~ on top. Coincidentally, this 天才 was my teammate in one of my projects. Today, he asked a question which almost threw everyone onto the floor. Miss L told us to submit an assignment via email, and this 天才 asked some questions on how to do, like format, procedures etc. So Miss L casually mentioned this assignment was actually more like a copy-n-paste thing from the given info, but it takes time to "write" the organisation. Immediately, he asked, "Oh! You mean we have to submit hard copy?"

She grasped my arm and started foaming.

No lah, but she did grasp my arm (coz I suay suay sat between them) and exclaimed, "Siqi, please wake him up! He is getting impossible! Aiyoh!"

Solid proof that smart people also have their dumb times. Is he too smart to understand common sense?

I'm in LOVE...

Yes, I'm in love, at a wrong time, but I just can't help it, it was love at 1st sight. Now, I think of "him" day and night when I'm supposed to mug for exams, but my mind is just all about "him". "He" used to be just a dream, a fantasy, but soon, it's going to be a reality, and then I could and touch, feel and sense "him".

Well, to all those curious minds, let me introduce "him":

The handsome Nokia 7360!!! I'm planning to get it this Friday. All thanks to the $65 voucher, else it's totally out of my budget. I almost screamed and hyperventilated when I checked out the price, $168 with 2 years contract, minus $65, minus $10 trade-in, I can buy!!!!! OH! The thought of having this excited me so much, wah! Can't wait for Friday to come sooner!

Laughing laughing laughing

Ha ha ha ha, today was a ha-ha day, really laugh a lot.

This morning, KCQ was telling us that her tutor mentioned about a news heading this morning about a student complaining lecturers did not give tutorial solutions or whatever shit lah, and we were debating whether it was that asshole protester. So our conversation linked to lecturers who could not speak or taught well. And I thought KCQ was spouting vulgarity when she said, "And that XX lecturer only know how to say "懒觉话"，I was immediately stunned. I went to interrogating and asked her, "Do you have to use that word?" "What word?" She asked. "You said "懒觉". "Choy, I didn't use that word, I was saying he only know how to say "冷笑话 "

Paiseh, ears need some cleaning.

That asshole protester famous liao loh! Have not read the news yet, not sure what happen to him.

饱到要吐，恶到想死

My blog title read "Eat until too full, disgusted till death". Why? Coz I got a freaking baby cockroach in my udon during dinner, I tot it was seaweed until I saw legs and feelers. Argh!!! Went to show the cashier ladies the culprit, and they got me a new bowl. Thus, now I am so full coz I ate 1.5 bowls of udon, plus the teriyaki chicken. Think it will last me till 2am... (I had early dinner, 5pm) -_-" Goosebumps still run down my spine when I tot of the roach, *Vomit*

Got myself some chocolates to calm my nerves. :P

Annoucement, I will stop blogging from till exam turbulence is over on 5th May, meanwhile from now till maybe 10 April, will blog when blue moon appears. Good luck to everyone having exams and work hard, don't count on luck! LOL.

SOTD:

Last Sunday, I was snuggling against Jamie on my mum's bed. Being an inquisitive kid, she asked why were my dark rings under my eyes so dark. Obviously was without enough sleep since exams were coming. "You look like polar bear leh!"... Polar Bear? Yeh, I know you know what was my reaction hor.

Why I cannot upload pictures in Blogger?? Time to get a flickr?

Disgusting Truth

Today's astronomy lesson is non-compulsory (anyway lectures in uni are not mandatory also), but I attended to "check it out" any interesting topics for the presenation. While chit chatting with one of my team mates for this module, she told me that she had initially thought the Indian in our group was female, until she went to see his pic in a school's site. Pic, what pic? Can check meh? I thought. Upon asking, turned out that everyone's photo is accessible from the school's site. Who the hell thought of this? Seems like we can check it in the modules registered. Damn... To think I always hide my matric card coz I think it's very ugly (Poly's photo was worse), so...it can be seen by everyone. Luckily, I had took the precaution to take a "nice" photo for matriculation, but it's pretty useless coz the school's scanner machine screwed up one, pretty becomes ugly, handsome also become disgusting lah. So you wanna check out the cute guy in this particular module group? Go there and you can see his face being distorted. I couldn't upload pictures in Blogger, so cannot show you all how distorted my face become, mu ha ha ha.

Anyway, it was pretty fun to check my friends' photo, some of them looked like the got "The Dog" photographer, big head, small neck de... LOL.

Oh yah, I shot an "inspired mail" to that silly guy, see below:

hey, i got ur "protest" mail in NTU, I am so bloody inspired by you, that you take your own initiative to speak up, to challenge the school. You are my idol. I'm not that daring enough, thus I contact you thru this annoymous mail.

CAN YOU PLEASE STOP SPAMMING! Not happy go to other Uni! You want speak good english profs, go to UK, US or other "good english speaking" countries, the chance that you see another cheena prof speaking lousy english, I think it's pretty high.

You are already violating the *toot* rule by spamming the whole of *toot*, you ought to look for a proper channel to release your unhappiness. Spamming everyone is not a wise choice, coz you have made urself the joke of the school. A scholar who is initiating protest, ha ha. I think either you study too much, therefore brain has gone mad or you are so smart that you don't have to study, thus the free time to do all these things.

You are creating so much inconvenience to everyone with your mails, with so much formatting, it took a very long time to download. Seriously, rank *toot*very lousy meh? I suppose you had came from neighbouring country, since you said you are a scholar and I don't think local scholars are so free to do these. if you are finding fault with *toot*, go back to where you are!

No one bothers about this at this crucial time, study for ur exams, or go and do volunteer work. I think the ah peks and ah mas would love to have someone to entertain them. Clown!

He only replied "my sincere apologies". Asshole!

We are such a bunch meanies :P

Today's presentation went fairly well, being the 1st group to present, nobody else was in the right mood to throw questions at us, since most of them were busy preparing their speech. Therefore, the groups behind us were quite poor things, especially the last few groups, were in constant bombardment by me and another teammate. We did not mean to be mean, but the questions just popped inside my head, so I asked lor, anyway, if they can answer, good mah. Hor hor... can showed spontaneity.

Anyway, my group (minus leader) went makan and chit chat, and we chatted about this guy from another engineering course, who spam the whole undergraduatess email, wanna "stage" protest, with regards to fees' hike, lecturers who can't speak proper english and some other matters. Mind you, he is a scholar and many of us think he must have studied too much or he is so damnsmart that he did not have to do revision, thus the free time to do such thing. THIS COULD BE VERY SERIOUS!!!!!

As if one email wasn't enough, he had to send 3 mails! Bloody hell, his email was formatted so much that it takes a long time to load, and the explorer was hanged for a moment. And I was in an urgent hurry to write an email...

Anyway, I doubt anyone will be interested to join his protest, coz exams coming, where got time? To stage protest, also must apply license from police, where got such time for this? Deal with exams first bah, duhz...

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

Of dose of caffein and doze of sleep

Time to blog, hand itchy, although I'm supposed to do presentation slides, hee hee hee

Had a lot of serious thoughts the past few days, wanna blog about it but I forgot le, so nair mind, I blog it when I remember. My memory selectively choose to remember useless things as usual, like why ku ku is call ku ku.

These few days damn busy with tech comm report, finally its over! Submitted last friday at 5.30pm, thought can finallly concnetrate on study, shit, I still have 2 more reports, lab and astronomy. Die die die... hope today can clear, one more quiz before exams, have to study hard for that loh....

Dr. Chan came to my school to give an astro talk on "Dark Matter" last tuesday, it was so nice to see him after so long. He looks more tired than he was during poly. But the few of us had a good chat with him, and it nice to hear him chat about "going against the norm". June Astro retreat again, anyone going? My school's astro club is organizing one too, not too sure if I can make it. Will try and ask for more details... Oh, passport expiring soon, I better renew it after exams.

Okie, I remembered what I wanna blog le.

Since P2, dozing off is class is my forte. It was this one "accident" that I dozed off, and since on, I purposely get myself to doze off, coz I tot "Wah! I dozed off teacher also dunno, then I continue sleep lor". Even after I was kanna smacked on the head for dozing off, it was too late for me to kick this habit, I will still doze off. When I go to secondary school, it got worse, I was already addicted to coffee. Even with a daily dose, I will still sleep, without coffee, I'm a zombie. Serious! I can't think without coffee! Together with heavily involvement in military bandand and the hectic study sechdule (I was a lousy student, I had remedial class almost everyday), I almost breakdown, or so I thought at that time.

Then I went to poly, determined to work hard and not to doze off again, but it was kinda hard, I would only try to keep awake during those strict lecturers' lesson, but it was a mild doze, not heavy doze. Then my friends around me knew this trait of mine, and I would always say I went fishing with Grandpa Zhou. I kicked my caffein addict during my last half year in poly, but actually I slept more coz I was on a supplement diet at that time, I was to drink a cup of milkshake every morning, thus no coffee. So when I go to school to do project, I sleep. I would sleep at almost every 2 hours or so, its a miracle I managed to finish my project. The miracle was I had a chin-chai supervisor and project mate. The project mate actually let me copy and paste, but of course, my integrity was not so low I copied and submitted, I copied with understanding.

After graduation, I went to work, somewhere near my school now, so it's damn far and working time damn early . I had breakfast time at 9am, and usually, I had either coffee, tea or milo. By this time, I was not addicted to caffein totally,that is I can think without caffein. So, more or less, it was good but I was addicted to afternoon nap. Luckily for me, I worked alone, and I could easily find a place to sleep, and the staffs there thought I'm busy. :P It was pretty sian-lang, but I did have my busy time. There was one period I worked so hard that my weight dropped to 72kg, the lightest I ever been since 13 years old (this age coz I offically stopped growing upwards)

Anyway, then I came to Uni full of hopes and dreams, and to my horror, it was so hard to realise my dreams. I have to work ten time harder than I was in poly, so it was much a nightmare for me. Last year, my 1st semester, I still went fishing occassionally with Grandpa Zhou, thus I did not grasp the content in lectures and I didn't do self revision. However, this semester,I feel like a whole new person, not only do I stopped fishing, I even managed to stay awake throughout the whole 3 hours of lecture. Of coz, by noon time, I CMI and would doze off again. So now, I will get some short nap, around 15 minutes before a lesson. It helps wondefully, especially during tutorial class, I will not miss any answers to the tutorial. There are times when I am super tired also lah, but so far, this semester, I felt more energectic. Now Roomie and I came up with secret terms for sleeping in class: Big fish (heavy doze ) or small fish (light doze).

Thus, when Dr. Chan came to give a talk, not only did I managed to stay awake, I even bloodyhell understand what he was teaching. This is no doubt something I am most proud of, coz being an avid fan of astro, this is the first time I understand something that I would think its CHEEM during poly. I actually understand the formula leh! (Plus the fact I am in engineering course, and the equations are the same as what I learnt for this semester)

I only learnt how to manage my sleep pattern to help me study effectively at the age of 22, which is pretty late. Sometimes, I wonder, if I had know how to manage my sleep, would I have done better? Would I have a better understanding of everything? I was flipping my cousin's physic textbook the other day and I was thinking how trivial it was, just like how Profs think Uni stuffs are trivial, it's the same logic. I would not have this thought if I'm in poly. During poly where working part-time was a norm, people always asked why don't I be a tuition teacher, it pays well, especially secondary school. I told them because I don't like to teach kids, actually, I was not confident enough to teach them well, let alone primary school. However, giving tution has been crossing my mind lately, coz I think I can teach already.

No matter what addiction to kick, coffee and sleep, the addiction that I won't kick is chocolate! It's a food from heaven.

SOTD1: I was having breakfast with my family earlier, and Jamie asked what I want to drink. I answered, "Kopi lor". She marvellously retorted, "Why you always drink Kopi one, no wonder you are so short!" -_-" (Jia had told me a few months ago that caffein will suck the calcium, thus hindering bone growth in children, and therefore concluded why I am shorter than her, since I started daily caffein addiction when I was 9 years old.)

SOTD2: MSN conversation with Diyumi just now

diyumi: siqi

diyumi: why do u think learnign mandarin is important?

I think she suffered fingers-must-hit-enter syndrome, cannot finish her sentence at one go de leh. Looks like she stammering with her keyboard, but she does not stammers in real-life, she talks like a machine gun! Really!

Bitchiness

On Sunday, I was telling Jia how sacarstic and bitchy she could become when fine tune wrongly, and it seemed like I was more or less becoming like her. What she answered me was classic, "No lor, Lim Peh (my dad) is the ultimate Suaning King, we got this gene from him."

Never did I know the usually loud but hardly talk Daddy actually was so sacarstic. He had reprimanded her for her previous 2nd handphones. Next time must prepare myself before I talk to him, LOL.

Still rushing tech comm report, due this Friday. A guy getting a free ride in our team is doomed, coz I had reported him to my Prof, and it seems like we will have this peer evaluation form. He is chiam liao, I'm gonna make him repeat this module again. Sucker!

The Pianist

I am watching "The Pianist" now, I had thought it was going to be a boring show. It is slow, but it is not boring. This histroical film about the destruction of Jews is really heartbreaking, from 500, 000 Jews, they massacred to only 60, 000 only. Horrible Hitler! And that Adrien Brody, no wonder he got the Oscar, he was damn good, his acting really captivated my attention. One little short joke: The end of the movie quoted "A Roman Polanski Movie", I thought it was a movie done between the Romans and Polishs, hee hee, actually it was the director's name. :P

I had my Physics Quiz today, after 2 weeks of preparing. It wasn't thorough enough, but somehow I was able to attempt the questions and I'm actually proud of myself. Coz I actually feel that I will pass for this quiz, bleahz... My 2 previous quiz was studied on the day itself, and I knew I couldn't do the paper. Anyway, this Physics really set my mood momentum to swing for exam siah!

Yeah, vicious cyclone is coming back, and this time it will blow longer than last time, coz I have one more paper. So yah, update is gonna be very very slowwwwwwwwww.

Bought a 512 xD card, woah hoo! Now I can take 394 pictures, 5.0 MB resolution, and 12 minutes video. So cool!

Different Cultures

I was distributing invitations cards in 1 of the hall blocks just now. Usually, the guys are half naked on the top, and wear shorts below, and we girls also used to it, although sometimes the guys also very shy when we girls happen to bump into their section, and they will quickly hide into their rooms. The ang mohs, had totally different culture. They wear a T-shirt and brief only, full stop. I bumped into one just now, luckily, I was on the phone, so I pretended I didn't notice he was "shortless", and my eyes roamed somewhere else. Actually, his big, milky, fleshy thighs keep flashing back...

Today is a "suay" day, first I saw a guy's butt crack, and then this... Wah liew... This is more suay than walking under women's underwear!

My hair is not rebonded, but neither does it looks like anymore, =(

Ever since my last haircut, quite a number of people always asked if I rebonded my hair, and I always 暗爽 about it, but replied in a cool manner, "No lah, no money to rebond." The biggest 爽 came today when I went to trim my thick-like-lion's mane hair, the stylist asked, "Did you rebond ur hair or it is natural?" I had to suppress my excitement and replied nonchantly, "It's natural." Wah!!! Damn happy coz even a experienced stylist thought my hair is rebonded. Of coz, I also did think whether whether my hair was too dry and brittle to let him think it was badly rebond, but considering my hair wasn't that badly damaged except for those unsightly split ends, I concluded my hair was very straight lah. Maybe some might think what's so big deal, well it's big deal, coz I didn't pay money for any rebonding service and my hair looks like it was, hee hee. But I have to confess it only looks like rebonded hair after a hair wash lah.... and maybe after a few hours, the scalp gets oily and the hair gets heavy, you know... Anyway, my last haircut was done at Sandstorm (Jurong Point), by a senior stylist named Leon, I think he's good lah, I did review it that time.

But ALAS! The effect is gone, coz this stylist didn't have the skill Leon had and I had told him just to trim 1 inch off to make it same length as the side, coz I find my hair too layerized liao. So basically, my $8 haircut (I don't want $20 trim) wasn't as worth as Jamie who had almost 3 inches of hair cut off, same price. And 4 hours later, my hair was already twisting here and there. But this is not the saddest part, my head had this small tuft of hair popping out from my parting, double SAD!!!!! I had not visited this saloon since September or October last year, and therefore I totally forgot that they always cut until a small tuft appeared out of no where. Sianz... it will take at least 6 months for this tuft of hair to become long and heavy then it won't pop out. Argh.... think this will be the last time I visit this saloon liao.

3 months = 1 inch of hair, now the length is the same as December. I shall endure until July then cut hair!

Ku Ku in the head = dickhead?

I just had this realization. Do you ever scold someone who is crazy in hokkien, that is "Su Ku"? Then we short formed it to "Ku Ku", example: He's ku ku up in the head, heck care him. Did you noticed how we always scold men as dickhead? Somehow I think these 2 terms are cousins...

Something irrelevant. While having Statistic and Probability class, Prof set up this scenario: What is the probabilty of the gender of the next person coming into the lecture, if is male, P(x) = 1, if is female, P(x) = 2. Then some smart alec asked why male is the number 1 and female number 2? Prof gave a marvellous answer:

"It's not easy being No. 1, but being No. 2, can always replace No. 1."

How true!
