Why Fail Exams?

A year has 365 days for you to study.
After taking away 52 Sundays, there are only 313 days
left. There are 50 days in the summer that is way too
hot to work so there are only 263 days left. We sleep
8 hours a day, in a year, that counts up to 122 days
so now we're left with 141 days. If we fooled around
for only 1 hour a day, 15 days are gone, so we are
left with 126 days. We spend 2 hours eating each day,
30 days are used in this way in the year, and we are
left with 96 days in our year. We spend 1 hour a day
speaking to friends and family, that takes away 15
days more and we are left with 81 days. Exams and
tests take up at least 35 days in your year, hence you
are only left with 46 days. Taking off approximately
40 days of holidays, you are only left with 6 days.
Say you are sick for a minimum of 3 days, you're left
with 3 days in the year to study! Let's say you only
go out for 2 days! You are left with 1 day! But that 1
day is your birthday... so...

GOOD LUCK to everyone on your exams. God Bless...


Copied the above text from some email from some fren. Totally untrue. For those who take econs that's like double counting when calculating national income using output approach. But well it goes to show how busy we are... Study hard peeps!

七里香

窗外的麻雀，在电线杆上多嘴
你说这一句，很有夏天的感觉
手中的铅笔，在纸上来来回回
我用几行字形容你是我的谁

秋刀鱼，的滋味，猫跟你都想了解，初恋的香味就这样被我们寻回
那温暖，的阳光，像刚摘的鲜盍草莓，你说你舍不得吃掉这一种感觉

雨下整夜，我的爱溢出就像雨水
院子落叶，跟我的思念厚厚一叠
几句是非，也无法将我的热情冷却
你出现在我诗的每一页

雨下整夜，我的爱溢出就像雨水
窗台蝴蝶，像诗里纷飞的美丽章节
我接着写，把永远爱你写进诗的结尾
你是我唯一想要的了解

雨下整夜，我的爱溢出就像雨水
院子落叶，跟我的思念厚厚一叠
几句是非，也无法将我的热情冷却
你出现在我诗的每一页

那饱满，的稻穗，幸福了这个季节，而你的脸颊像田里熟透的蕃茄
你突然，对我说，七里香的名字很美，我此刻却只想亲吻你倔强的嘴

雨下整夜，我的爱溢出就像雨水
院子落叶，跟我的思念厚厚一叠
几句是非，也无法将我的热情冷却
你出现在我诗的每一页

整夜，我的爱溢出就像雨水
窗台蝴蝶，像诗里纷飞的美丽章节
我接着写，把永远爱你写进诗的结尾
你是我唯一想要的了解

Now it's really one day plus, oops...

Totally agree with MJ that trips to grandparents houses are actually mini competitions for vertical supremacy. The first thing relatives will do when they see you is exclaim "omg u've grown taller, taller than me now" ( that's stupid cause they say it everytime they see you even though the first time you're already taller than them ), then they'll ask how tall are you and then compare with cousins. How fun...!

Right, so there's this Korean girl who can spin balls better than my spinning pool balls ( not self-proclaimed ). Too bad in my eyes she's just another villian...

One uniform had brought two ppl closer together. How unforgiving that misunderstandings are forged when ppl refuse to speak up. Yet amazingly these differences just turn into nothing when confronted. No more black or dao, more "lameness and dramatic", and much more laughter. No more staring and believing that the other is angry. How grateful to fate...

4 weeks of prelims coming up next. Gd luck guys, including myself. Work hard and smile more =D

One day plus to prelims - brooding

took two stops more today. no idea why i did it, guess i wanted to relive last festive. walked the same dark route again. hmmm new road constructed. with mix feelings i roamed the dark streets. everything seemed so close, at the same time so distant. walked almost the same route that we always took. went back to the garden where the benches are so distinct among the short bushes, it's 15mins to 11pm, just the right time. could just imagine them sitting there. nearly saw. i like this feeling. came to the stairway and stood there for a few moments, as if waiting for somebody to come down. wishful thinking. the lights are out. came to the bus stop, where we waited so often, no idea where the path eventually leads, but certainly a place of our own. on that bus again. miss the times.

Stay The Same

Don't you ever wish
You were someone else
You were meant to be
The way you are exactly
Don't you ever say
You don't like the way you are
When you learn to love yourself
You're better off by far
And I hope you always stay the same
'Cause there's nothing 'bout you I would change

I think that you could be
Whatever you wanted to be
If you could realize
All the dreams you have inside
Don't be afraid
If you've got something to say
Just open up your heart
And let it show you the way

Don't you ever wish
You were someone else
You were meant to be
The way you are exactly
Don't you ever say
You don't like the way you are
When you learn to love yourself
You're better off by far
And I hope you always stay the same
'Cause there's nothing 'bout you I would change

Believe in yourself
Reach down inside (ohh-oooh)
The love you find will set you free
Believe in yourself (ohh-oooh)
You will come alive
Have faith in what you do
You'll make it through

Ohh-wooahh-ohh
Heeeeeyyy

Don't you ever wish (ohhhhh yeah)
You were someone else
You were meant to be (you were meant to be)
The way you are exactly
Don't you ever say (Ohh-wooahh-ohh)
You don't like the way you are
When you learn to love yourself (love yourself)
You're better off by far
And I hope you always stay the same (stay the same)
'Cause there's nothing 'bout you I would change (change)

No, there's nothing 'bout you I would change . . .

Don't change . . .
