6 hours of national income determination renders thoughts incoherent:

ONE
lai yexian just received his NS letter shock today. deepest condolences. everyone out there, you can either a)be extra devout for the coming week and help me pray for an april enlistment miracle or b)prepare an encouragement/mockery/condolence speech lest i receive that sacred letter within the next few days or so. by the way, you are more likely to see your efforts pay off by adopting the latter approach. :)

how inethical is the act of prying into the lives and thoughts and blogspaces of others? you see, it's all a matter of give and take - you rant and ramble, heal yourself with word therapy, seek to shape a truer and more favourable public perception for yourself... and therefore also expose your life to the scrutiny of random blog-hoppers eager to satisfy their innate curiosity. well, i just feel that whining on and on about privacy intrusion is dumb and uncalled for - why can't you not publish your post or better still, keep a padlocked diary then?

life is good now. and i ought to appreciate it a whole lot more than how i do right now. before conscription renders my world deviod of internet, TV, magazines, movies, kboxing, hi-fi sets..(perhaps more succintly, a life) in two months time. i've got a great family, great friends, great school, great bed, great cable subscription, great mp3 player, great handphone right now. maybe As spoils things a little, but i try to tell myself to cherish mugging before i'm forced to suddenly not mug for the next two years after mugging for 15 consecutive years. maybe i'll get withdrawal symptoms. we'll see.

this is just a random thought that popped up in my mind a while ago. i don't really feel strongly for it, but i figure it's just kinda peculiar.

has anyone else realized that jc tutors simply refuse to acknowledge the word 'memorize'?(except when mentioning it in a negative light) i mean, yes yes yes, we-cannot-just-memorize-chunks-of-words-straight-from-the-notes-because-it-is-totally-retarded-and-juvenile, but surely, even after reorganizing, note-making, and independent research, we still have to memorize before we can apply? it's not even a bad thing, why the taboo markers? hahaha. this is kinda funny. in econs, they prefer to call it knowledge and comprehension. how elegant sounding. ms j prefers the term 'remember', while lep tutors sink deepest into denial by reminding us of the need to 'fen xi' a cha guan question. is it that hard to pronounce, just three syllabuses. LOL. and another thing! i am always perplexed when tutors keep telling us about the imperative need to analyse a question. i mean, i don't know lah, isn't it instinctive that when they throw you a question, you look at it, try to understand what it means,then proceed to backtrack material learnt that is related, link em up, and write them down? isn't that already analysing? well, the word analyse just doesn't mean anything to me la.

the amazing race 10 is on! it's got such an explosive mix of interesting characters. the stupid blonde cheerleaders ("Do muslims believe in buddha?"), the ego-as-pumped-up-as-muscles himbos, the amputee, the fiesty black single mommas (why are single mums always black???)and the butt-shaking boyfriends. it's all on youtube. truly the greatest invention of the millenium.

people in christina's livedaily forum are discussing about jessica simpson's horrible pronounciation. it's freakin funny!! in that lame public affair song, listen closely to the chorus and you find that she sings "all the camels come out for a public affair.." for those who get it, isn't it so superduper funny?!??!! she really sings CAMELS! there really isn't the r in the camera!!!! so damn hilarious.

alright. end of incoherent thoughts. is it of any wonder why i got 3/8 for AQ?
