Never Ending Story...
Appreciate people whom u dislike... They are the ones who are really true to you... Thats because they do not know how to hide the bad side of them... Vice versa, be careful with people whom are too perfect. Not many humans are, so most likely they acted well.. =p

Utterly Disappointed With My LRT Exam...
I hate examinations... But I simply cant escape from them... I feel its absurb to judge a person's ability in a mere 2 hours exam after attending for a few months of lessons...
Today, I just have my LRT (Leisure, Recreation and Tourism) examination... It sucks... I have spent so much effort in preparing for it... For this exam, I even did research on the net so my answers will be unique from the others... However, once i stepped into the examination hall, all was lost... In a panic, I had forgotten to include all the important points for my essay... And I believe like everyone else, there is this stupid time constraint...
Examinations test a person's ability to cope with stress more than to test one's knowledge... I am not boasting... But I am good and creative in my answer... Its just that stress and time constraints (plus my slow handwriting) are often the hindrance to my performance... Think I ve flung this semester's examination... after so much hardwork put in all my projects... 11 projects!!! But i ve managed to get 10 of them at least an A-... (The last one was not given back) I even have 3 of my personal journals put up on the IVLE as model essays... I am the ONLY ONE... That proves that I am not stupid... However, many people think that I am from those inferior batches of students... Its their perceptions that have caused me to lose confidence in myself...
Oh... Please... If there is a GOD, a BUDDHA or ALLAH up there, I hope a miracle will happen for me... What I need now is LUCK... Sigh... Really feel like slapping myself for not being at my fullest form in examinations.........
Symptoms of Stress...
1) Cutting Fingernails almost daily
2) Shaving my beard and moustache daily
3) Bathe longer than usual
4) Brush teeth harder than usual
5) An appetite for junk food and no appetite for meals
6) Diarrhea
7) Playing with lighter
Poor me... I feel like dying... =(

Alanis Morissette Knows What Life Is - Full of Ironies
Alanis Morissette - Ironic
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won a lottery and died the next day
It"s a black fly in your Chardonnay
It"s a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn"t it ironic ... don"t you think
It"s like rain on your wedding day
It"s a free ride when you"ve already paid
It"s the good advice that you just didn"t take
Who would have thought ... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn"t this nice ..."
And isn"t it ironic ... don"t you think
It"s like rain on your wedding day
It"s a free ride when you"ve already paid
It"s the good advice that you just didn"t take
Who would have thought ... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything"s okay and everything"s going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything"s gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you"re already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It"s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It"s meeting the man of dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn"t it ironic ... don"t you think
A little too ironic ... and yeah I really do think ...
It"s like rain on your wedding day
It"s a free ride when you"ve already paid
It"s the good advice that you just didn"t take
Who would have thought ... it figures
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
The Best Lecturer & the Best Project Group...
This the email sent to me and my group mates for the module "Leisure, Recreation and Tourism"...
Congratulations Lasab Tours for a wonderful job in A2 and A3. This is not
just my opinion, but that of your peers (which is more important, since
they represent the "mass audience" you were trying to convince).
It is clear you all worked very hard; from your peer review of each other
and my own observations in tutorial, you also worked very cohesively and
harmoniously as a team. Your good results is proof of this!
I hope you keep up the good work for the examination, and also for future
Geography modules.
Best wishes, TC
I have really enjoyed this module throughout the semester to the extent that I have been following through the 39 readings... (Thats not the case for my other modules.
LaSab Tours, meaning "Dirty Tour", is my group project name... And we ve got the most "powerful" and hardworking people inside.
ALVIN - The No. 01... He is the best of the best and every teachers' pet.
WEIJIAN - The Golden Hair... Thought he was a gangster but he is a DAMN NICE person.
SYAIFU - The Only Malay... This Guy is hardworking man... Sure get an A for his exam.
JIAJIE - The Xiao On... Always put his best foot forward.
Wow... With all this people in LaSab Tours PTE LTD, we have made it... An A for our group project... And I got an A for my individual journal too... YEAH...
The best thing is: We have won the votes of many to get a third and a fourth position for the group projects... We were so proud when that was announced during the lecture... Hahahahahahahahaha... We've made it...
And we have the best lecturer in the GEOGRAPHY DEPT also... Associate Professor TC Chang... Cant describe cause he is just too good... For NUS Students, take this module to experience it yourself... Haha
Thank You LaSab Tours and TC Chang... The most memorable module that I ve ever taken... =)

LaLa Is Her Name...
Lalalalalalalala.... Hee
Dreamt about my Fav Kitty 2 nights ago... I dunno why I called her by the name, "LaLa"... So when I woke up, thats it... LaLa will be her name...
Went to Cat "Hunting" with a bag of pork floss (those that are compressed into "sticks") in Pasir Ris Park yesterday night. Found a lot of cats loitering around... However, these cats were different from LaLa... They are scared of human... When I fed them, I had to throw the pork floss at a distance so the food is far away from me... In the end, I kept 2 sticks of pork floss for LaLa...
Took these two photos of LaLa when I went home yesterday from Pasir Ris Park... ust to let her remember her name, I kept chanting "LALALALALALALALALALALALALA" in her ears... Haha... Think she had a nightmare yesterday because of that... =p Anyway, she loves pork floss... Well... Thats for sure... Pork Floss is so expensive... I even heard from a friend that her pet cat craves for pork floss and Ba4Gua1... haha...

Irritated...
My Location:
National University of Singapore, NUS (6th Floor, Central Library Computer Room)
Getting irritated by two girls chatting in front of me while I am working on my final project of this semster... Arrggghhh... Want to ask them to shut up but dun wanna spoil my image in NUS... ha... Den on the left, one computer was simply booked by one inconsiderate person who just place a sweet and a piece of paper on the table... That person is gone for around 3 hrs already... So fascinated by how NUS people can behave... And I am turning into one of such bastards also due to the competitive structure of NUS. Everyone is just so INDIVIDUALISTIC, pursuing their own goals at the expense of others.
Can't help it... This is life. This is Singapore. This is the NUS - Nerdy and Utterly Selfish university.
