Spoliers Ahead!!

I caught X Men last night. It was disappointing. I was looking forward to the fight between Iceman and Pyro since X men 2, and their fight in X Men 3 was like a typical Dragon Ball fight or Street Fighter fight (Arduken!). It was a fight between 2 of the coolest characters in X Men and.. it's just too short and unspectacular. Angel was a mere 'kare-dar-fare' in the show (he was a founding member of the X Men in the comics). And Cyclops died!! He's the poster boy of X Men!! I hope part 4 will be better.. I'm sure those who died will be back.

I had a fun week. Tired but happy. And I've found out that my joints cant keep up. My ankles and knees will be damn sore midway through a soccer game, even though I am still not tired. I'm still able to run and sprint, but my ankles dun allow me to do that. Argh!

Anyway last thursday, I had 6 ppl in my room for a mahjong game. 4 ppl playing, the other 2 share with 2 of the players. I opened my windows for more ventilation. Then at 4+am, some pranksters threw eggs at my window!! And they threw at my neighbour's windows too!! Damn it! Bo tai bo zhi have to clean windows at 4am in the morning, and wipe the floor, scrubbed part of the toilet (cos some of us stepped on the egg and went to the toilet to wash, and the toilet got the smell). We still continued playing after I cleaned up, and the best thing is, I won $2 the whole night.. We played for almost 12 hours. Hehz..

Sentosa was great!

So many games to play, yet so little time... Hahahaha

A helicopter was flying around above Seattle when an electrical malfunction disabled all of the aircraft's electronic navigation and communications equipment.
Due to the clouds and haze, the pilot could not determine the helicopter's position. The pilot saw a tall building, flew toward it, circled, and held up a handwritten sign that said "WHERE AM I?" in large letters. People in the tall building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large sign, and held it in a building window. Their sign said "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER."

The pilot smiled, waved, looked at his map, determined the course to steer to SEATAC airport, and landed safely. After they were on the ground, the copilot asked the pilot how he had done it.

"I knew it had to be the Microsoft Building, because they gave me a technically correct but completely useless answer."

New pictures for a new cup won!! Hahaha. Seriously I never thought Liverpool will win it after West Ham scored to make it 3-2. They were too tired. Kewell and Alonso were subbed out due to injury. As compared to last year in the Champions League Final, after Liverpool scored the 1st goal I can sensed that Liverpool could equalised to make it 3-3. But this time it's different. Everyone can see that more than 1/2 of the Liverpool players were tired after a record breaking 62 games played this season. And West Ham were running the clock down, until the very last minute where Gerrard scored THAT goal. 3-3. Same scoreline as last season, and when it went to penalties, I just knew that Liverpool could win it. And they did!

THAT Goal:

This jersey with the 2 blue badges below costs $180.. The jersey itself is $95, the 2 badges cost $85! Damn it. It's a bit too ex, so i figured that I buy the jersey 1st, then after I got my IA pay then i print the 2 badges on the jersey. Anyway, as I was paying for it using Nets, the shop assistant keyed in $9 instead of $95. Being the honest and dumb guy, I told him bout his mistake and he changed it back to $95. Argh.. Now I regretted it. I could have just keyed in my PIN and pray that he didnt notice it, and I would have walked away with a $95 jersey for $9!!

Feels damn shitty when you have to wake up at 1pm to go to school... Argh.. Guess tmr I have to wake up even earlier! Anyway my IA interview went okay, but the job scope sounds boring.. But $800 bucks per month, I think it's not bad.. Haha so fingers crossed that I will get it..

Played 2 rounds of mahjong last night, from 11pm to 5am.. What happen to the speed man?!?!

Chiam See Tong!!

Low Thia Khiang!!

Exams are gone for a year!! Haha!! Finally got back home, bought a new and better mouse cos the old one got spolit due to too much gaming (during exam period). Missed my speakers too. New mouse + good ol' speakers + friends who stayed through the night to play games with you = damn shiok!

Fowler signed a new 1 year contract! I'm gonna get the new Liverpool jersey with his name on it!


OK to the big election..
I was kind of disappointed when I reached home and ask my mum bout the opposition in my area. She said that she couldn't recognised them as they didn't even go house to house visiting. Where's the sincerity man? And the opposition seems to be very very low profile in my area, how to win like that??

Anyway vote for CNP!! Motto: You stay still here, I move ahead.

4 hrs 25 mins more to freedom! Woootz! ORD LOH~~!!! What a draggy exam this is.. I wonder how I survived my 'O' & 'A' levels..

Tmr is voting day! Vote for CHUA WEI GUAN!

Sunday is football day!! Morning @ Bishan Park, evening @ Anfield!!

Monday is my IA interview! Wish me luck man! I really hope to land this IA at Micron. It's just a short walk from my house, and if I got in, I will try for the Micron Scholarship. It's a small scholarship, not a prestigious one. Besides it guranteed me a job right after graduation, and I will be given monthly allowance till I grad! Will be bonded for the number of years they sponsored me. So if I apply now, I will be bonded for 2 yrs, which I feel should be long enough to earn valuable experience then try for other jobs.

Tuesday onwards I will be back in hall! For the project in the day; mahjong, dota, FM, soccer and runs at nite!


4 hrs and 15 mins left!!!

I've finally found the word I am looking for to describe Singapore. We seem to be democratic but we're not; we seem to be under a monarchy, but we're not. No, dictatorship is out, and we are definately non-communist. So what the hell are we?

Authoritarianism

Authoritarianism describes a form of government characterized by strict obedience to the authority of the state, which often maintains and enforces social control through the use of oppressive measures. The term may also be used to describe the personality or management style of an individual or organization which seeks to dominate those within its sphere of influence and has little regard for building consensus.

In an authoritarian state, citizens are subject to state authority in many aspects of their lives, including many that other political philosophies would see as matters of personal choice. There are various degrees of authoritarianism; even very democratic and liberal states will show authoritarianism to some extent, for example in areas of national security.


What do you think?

No mood to study now, so here I am trying to plan my short hols. I guessed I will still be stuck in hall since I've got this irritating project to complete. It's not those OTOT kind of project, where you can arrange with ur friends what to do and when to meet up. For this we'll have to attend lessons! If I'm not wrong it's from early to afternoon, Mon to Fri. Argh. So I guessed I'll be occupied with the occasional street soccer games, daily DOTA & mahjong sessions for the next 5 weeks. How exciting... ZZZ... Oh and it's been quite long since I've met some of my friends. This time it's my turn to jio them out!

World Cup is coming. Spoilt for choices: England, Spain, Argentina, Italy, Germany or Australia? No I'm not talking bout betting on who to win the World Cup, but which country's jersey should I buy. Haha. Oh ya for next season Liverpool will be wearing their new Adiddas jersey already, no more Reebok. The world have seen so many good players donning the Reebok Liverpool jersey. Owen, Redknapp, Baros, Chua Wei Guan etc. I will miss the Reebok jerseys.

I bought the Sunday Times yesteday. Most of the news on election are on PAP, or the James Gomes saga. SDP, SDA and WP? 1-2 pages each, with the majority of the page taken up by advertisments. Level playing field? NO!! And for goodness sake please stop talking bout upgrading of flats. If they got the foresight 20 years ago, they would have built the lifts that stop on all the floors!! Upgrading of flats is not something that appeals to me. I don't care how my neighbourhood looks like, or whether the life stop at my floor, as long as I'm comfortable and happy inside my house I am glad.

Just vote for CNP!! You wont regret!

2 more papers! Argh! Have to mug in school which means that I cant go home to see the election rallies! 5th May is my last paper, and the next day it's voting day already. Wasted man, I'll have to wait for another 4 years to see the next rally already.

Its good to see that there are many opposition challenging PAP. Competition will bring the best out of everyone, and if this is the case, we will the ones who benefit. Hope so..


Anyway, one last note..

VOTE FOR CHUA'S NON-EXISTENT PARTY!!

VOTE CHUA WEI GUAN FOR PRESIDENT!!

I did badly for this morning's paper.. There was this qn, I wrote the 'degree' sign for 4 degree celcius quite big, you know, the degree is a small circle at the top. And when I refer to the tables to find the correspnding values for 4 degree celcius, I looked up 40 degree celcius instead! Argh. Damnit...


Anyway, 6th May is Election Day! 1st time I will be voting, and there will be competition in my area. Sometimes have to pity the oppostion parties, they got no propaganda methods unlike PAP spreading their influences in the newspapers, TV etc etc. I hope that there wont be a fight like last time where the SDP Chee Soon Juan quarrel with Lee Kuan Yew and Goh Chok Tong, seemed so childish except that they will go to the Supreme Court.

Who should I vote??

Chua Wei Guan for President! Vote for me now! And Chua's Non-existence Party! CNP!!

Once upon a time, a red Liver bird slew a Blue lion.
Swooped and flew through the beast's weak den walls,
a wing span casting shadows, over Roman's double talk.
The mighty mythical bird pushed forward, ignored roars,
snatched glory, from beneath the big cat's golden claws.
A hard, bloody fight, won by a goal as soft as kitten paws!
As the beaten beast's blue blood imbrued the red devil's home,
the last birdsong the lion ever heard, was You'll Never Walk Alone.

This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

You are probably living in a cave if you still have not heard of the big news!

2-1!

Start of a losing streak? Hopefully!

 

Here's something for them..

Song bo?!

Ned: The Most Popular Man in the World

Bill and Ned walk into a fast food joint one afternoon to get lunch. Bill orders and the cashier gives him his meal. Ned goes up to order and the cashier greets him with "Hello Ned! How are you? Hey everybody! Ned's here!" Everybody in the restaurant comes up and says hello to Ned. After everyone has greeted him, Bill and Ned sit down and begin to eat.
"Ned, you're pretty popular!" says Bill. "I'm the most popular man in the world," says Ned. "Now Ned," says Bill, your pretty popular but you're not the most popular man in the world." "Oh yeah," Ned replies "I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I'm friends with anybody you can name!" "That so?" answers Bill, "How about the president of the United States?" "Let's go!" says Ned.

The two fly to Washington and knock on the front door of the White House. The president answers, "Ned! How are you doing? I haven't seen you in ages!" The three go play a round of golf and then leave. "That was luck!" says Bill, "Two thousand says your not friends with the Queen of England!" "Let's go!" says Ned.

The two fly to Buckingham Palace and, sure enough, are greeted by the Queen. ''Hello Ned my boy! What have you been up to these days?" They enter the palace and have some tea and leave. Frustrated, Bill says, "Double or nothing, you don't know the Pope!" "J.P!" says Ned, "Let's go!"

When they get to the Vatican, Ned instructs Bill to wait outside and Ned will come out on the balcony with his arm around the Pope. After a while, a crowd gathers to hear the Pope speak. And as told by Ned, when the Pope came out, Ned's arm was wrapped around him. Ned looks down from the balcony and see's Bill passed out on the ground. He rushes down and wakes him up.

"Bill! Bill! Wake up!" Bill opens his eyes and says, "Ned. You're the most popular man in the world." "I told you that, Bill," says Ned, "but you didn't faint when I knew the President! You didn't faint when I knew the Queen!"

"Well I was shocked that you knew the Pope," says Bill. "But I just couldn't take it when the guy next to me tapped me on the shoulder and said "Who's that up there with Ned?"

My legs itch - I want to play soccer.
My arms itch - I want to play mahjong.
My hands itch - I want to play DOTA.
My fingers itch - I want to play guitar.
My backside itches - I don't want to sit down.
My stomach itches - I want to eat canteen food no more.
My heart itches - I wanna go home. (lol this sentence sounds so childish.)

18 more days! 432 more hours to go!

26 more days to partial freedom!

I realised that I won't be having a good holiday break for some time. Let me see, from last year Jan to May I was in school, then I had 2-3 weeks of short break and I went to Ritz Carlton to work till school started in August. Then followed by a period of 'intense studying' till Nov. And then there was children's camp and ICT. Right after that school reopened and after my exmas this sem, there's some innovative project which all engineering students have to do for 1 month. Following that, World Cup will start and I'll be busy watching and analysising and betting. Lol. Then my industrial attachment will begin in 11th July till 10th Dec. One week after that, just before Christmas, I think I will most probably have a week of ICT, and then school starts again in 2007. Then after 5 months of school, I want to take 1 GE module in the special semester in May/June period to clear my GE requirements. Phew.
No long statisfying break for 2.5 years! Scary, esp after seeing how some of my friends become so busy working, I think I better enjoy myself more now.

I want to aim for a good break after that special sem in July 2007. By then Jus would have grad already, and I will have 1 more year to go! Can't wait till I graduate. But I think 3 yrs later I will be saying 'I miss school'. But then again, judging from the frequency of my truancy from lectures, most ppl would have thought that I went on a holiday or drop out of school liao. Haha.

Happy mugging!
