haha after reading my blog entry abt the fortune cookie, i hoped u all had a good start to chinese new year. me? its still alright, still got money. buying a new hp soon, either k750i, or w800i, or n70. after tt still need to go to bangkok with some frens during the poly holidays. but now everything else is fooked up. in the end, i have this strong gut feeling the long awaited bangkok trip wun come at all. the new year is another fooked up thing.
i planned a gathering for the ex4e1 ppl, and only a few were able to make it. it is disappointing tt only a few are able to make it, but i am not angry abt tt. of coz quantity wise, it really can't be helped, coz they have their own activities planned. i also have to accept the fact that 4e1 will be drifting apart yr by yr, as much as i hate to admit. but the funny thing is that if they r not able to make it, they can jus reply me and tell me they wun be able to make it. wat the hell is so difficult? jus click on the bloody reply button on ur email and type 'I WUN BE ABLE TO MAKE IT' so i know. instead of living in doubt, i can at least tell the rest who r the ppl going. and its not tt u nv check ur email, coz i saw u all in msn a lot of times. u dun reply email nvm, i give u special service, i send sms. sms also nv reply. whoa forget it. PURELY DISAPPOINTING. but seriously i am not angry. i have to look on the bright side, there r still 8 ppl going. and i am also not pointing fingers at anyone. if u feel guilty, then there's nth i can do.
1b20, last 2 weeks with u guys. i can't feel happier. i need a fresh start next sem with new classmates, i seriously do. i'm not bringing u guys down. u guys have been a superb batch of classmates and i will nv forget u all. it has nth to do with u guys. its jus tt i need a fresh start again with new classmates in a new course. i need to get away from all that has happened and start anew. my elaboration ends here.
u may be neutral in reading this, and u might think tt since i have a problem with every1 else, i might BE THE PROBLEM MYSELF. well it might be bcoz im too engrossed in being a perfectionist and overlooking everything else, but i dun care. i nv expected to be well-liked in the first place.
next entry will be a much lighter one. i promise. bye

whahaha, it's the time of the year for me to earn money again! yep! it's chinese new year. compared to last year, it came much earlier this year. haha this reminds me of my foolish self 1 year ago. as embarassing as it sounds, i muz admit that only last yr then i got to know wat a fortune cookie actually was. haha so dumb, but then i only knew wat a fortune cookie looked like when i was 17yrs old. all thanks to a super funi incident...
well straight after my O's i went to Ananda Travel with andrew and wenjun to work as a phone operator. andrew and i stayed there for 3 whole months working almost everyday (wenjun left after 1 month coz his jc started). but due to the pleasant working environment with aircon, comfy chairs and free usage of the internet, i had no complaints. all i had to do was to answer phone calls. no phone calls = free time = internet surfing! haha a $6/hr pay was reasonable too. so the week before chinese new year came. every1 was in the CNY mood. and a young colleague (she was only about 21yrs old) bought a big bag of biscuits from guardian pharmacy for the whole office. she distributed and each of us got one.
i've nv seen a biscuit which is shaped like this, and normally biscuits dun jus have 1 per pack, usually its a few biscuits in one packet. but this one only has one. haha i thot it was very cheapopo but since it's free and it's quite a big piece, i accepted it the way it was. well i wanted to ask andrew wat it was, but he was busy talking to customers over the phone. so i opened the packet and stuffed the whole thing into my mouth and i bited and swallowed. to me it tasted ordinary. of coz its worse compared to oreo and chips ahoy, but i didn't compare la coz it isn't even choc flavoured.
a few hours later, i watched as andrew finally took his biscuit to eat. he did it very very differently from me, he opened the packet and held the biscuit in both hands, then he broke it into half. and i was thinking: 'huh, he like tt eat? it's not as if it's char siew pao wat' then after andrew broke it into half, he took out a paper inside it and said: 'hey gerald! haha the fortune cookie says tt i will have good luck tis year.' and i was like....
gerald: WHAT?!!!!!!!!!! U MEAN THERE IS A PAPER INSIDE THAT BISCUIT??!! AND THIS IS ACTUALLY CALLED A FORTUNE COOKIE??!!
andrew: ya, this is a fortune cookie wat. u break it open, take out the paper, see how's ur luck and then u eat the cookie. u mean u duno that this is called a fortune cookie ah?
gerald: obviously not.
andrew: haha nvm at least now u know. so wat did ur paper say?
gerald: errr, i didn't break it, i stuffed the whole cookie into my mouth and swallowed
andrew: (went into full 5mins of hardcore laughter and thereafter....) omg dun worry, when u shit, u can pray tt it comes out.
whoa, sibei paiseh man. haha coz i really didn't expect it to be fortune cookies, coz it came from GUARDIAN PHARMACY. oh well, at least to start off ur CNY, u all will have sth to laugh abt.. and tt's me. gong xi fa cai!

yawnz, thursday morning. and i'm here to update again. im gona whine my way through. chinese new year is coming, but after tt i have mbs access test and microecons portfolio submission and Q&A session. the following week, the most dreadful french speaking test is coming my way. damn. after completing mbs project, ob project and french project all in 2 weeks, there's more to come. it sux, but then again after all tt luckily there's the study break. so for now i'm looking forward to that.
oh ya i forgot to mention, that on sunday morning at 4am, i went to toilet to pee after playing 4 rounds of dotA. halfway while peeing, the lights flickered for abt 10secs. it's fricking 4am in the morning, and it's in the toilet... so pls dun ask me wat was on my mind then, it's very obvious. worse still, after those 10secs of blinking, it suddenly went *POOF* and i was in total darkness, and yes i was still peeing. whoa, wat an unforgetable incident. if u still cannot picture the scenario and find out wat was on my mind, pls go kill urself, u r way beyond hope. and if u r those dirty minded freaks who thot to urself: 'y did gerald have to pee for so long'
well it's bcoz i had a lot of ammo and u cant expect me to pee halfway, and when the lights go off, i keep back my pee. i can't do tt.. coz tt to me, it's called 'ABUSE.' my brother has been with me for 17yrs 8months, i can't abuse it jus bcoz there wasn't any lights, it's morally wrong. ok haha enuf of my bullcrap.
The 4 stages of wisdom:
Unconscious Incompetence
Conscious Incompetence
Conscious Competence
Unconscious Competence
yes yes, i typed that for a meaning. yesterday's Ob lecture was when i found out something which i was oblivious about for many years. we did on conflict management, and we did a so-called test to find out our way of handling conflicts, and mine was AVOIDANCE. i know its jus a test which i do no need to care much about, but looking back, tt was really wat i was doing all along. when conflicts arise, i avoid. but nv once did i ask myself, how long can i really keep avoiding. i duno if it's a good thing or not, but they say that avoidance will lead to more problems. and i believe that someday, all these tolerating is somehow gona take it's toll on me. the perfect animal to describe me, is a turtle. i didn't come up with this myself, some psychologist came up with it.
oh well, let's jus look forward to CNY, my annual pay day. whahahah. shall tell u guys the fortune cookie story on saturday! more meaningful. cya!
Monday, January 23, 2006
it's finally presentation day. after this afternoon from 1500-1700hrs, a huge chore would finally be off my back.... OB presentation! tts a good thing. the bad thing, is that i am sitting here on my com chair in a fricking hot shirt. sick, i hate formal wear. some of u may disagree thinking that u look good in it, well if tts the case then good for u but i hate it. the level of comfort is way below what i can imagine. whaha in addition to my thurs blog entry, yes i had a swollen eye. friday was no better and when i went to orchard, whoa i felt so dumb about myself. haha
yes i went to orchard. i went with jason weisheng weijie edwin gordon sijun and kaiwei. was supposed to meet jason at his house first b4 we went to meet the rest. so i wore a white polo tee with blue jeans. when i reached his house, i tip toe to peep at his window, and i saw him in a while polo tee and bball shorts. whoa then jason told me: 'wait a while ah i go change'
so i had this thinking, that oh he saw me in a white polo tee thats y he wana change, tts a good thing... we wun look so gay in orchard. in the end, he only changed his bottoms, and he changed into BLUE JEANS. so i was waiting for him at the lift area and when he appeared i almost murdered him. and both of us had to meet the rest at eastpoint so u imagine during the period of time when we were walking to eastpoint, we were like two gays in white polo tee and blue jeans. sick.
saturday morning, i had enuf of my damn eye. so i went to see a doctor. his name was doctor sim, his clinic existed from the day i was born, so he's like 60yrs old already i think. dun let his age give him away. when i went to see him, he bloody hell pulled my eye as if he was stretching a rubber band, and in the end he told me it was an infection and asked me to put some eyedrops which he provided. the end. a 3 min consultation, and he earned $26. its like $8.67 per min. old pervert. but nvm saturday afternoon my eye was ok already.
now lets hope this week doesn't suck, when CNY is coming. it's like so damn fast, but i'm not complaining, especially when i see $$$ coming. like who would. if u r, pls feel free to contribute to the gerald's sch holiday fund. coz when the hols come, my expenditures will definitely increase. shall update again on thurs or fri, with a special fortune cookie story, which took place last yr. of coz, i'm involved in it, and a stupid thing happened.... stay tuned. hohoho.
Thursday, January 19, 2006
whoo, finally found the time to update. sch has been hell. we all felt it, the urgency of which the deadlines must be met. a sucky feeling of coz. everyday i come home, i know i have schoolwork to do. the time i spent at home is also dedicated to doing schoolwork. i seriously need a break. and i know it will come on monday, when i hand up my OB project and go thru the presentation on the same day. since my last entry was last monday, i shall start from tues.
tues started off with our MBS lesson and we had to present our database. 5 grps altogether and my grp was scheduled to go last. ethan's grp went up first and when i saw his database, whoa i already knew that my group will kana trashed. seriously, a very big diff between the 2. did alot on OB on tues and i went home to type out. again, doing a lot of schoolwork at home.
Wed, had BA tutorial when ethan told us our main exam timetable. gd news is tt my exams r only 3 days, means i will have a full 2 months holiday. the bad part, i have 5 papers altogether. which means mon i got 1 paper, tues got 2 papers, thurs got another 2 papers. to make things worse, for tues and thurs where i have 2 papers each, the first paper is from 0930-1130hrs, and the next paper will be from 1900-2100hrs! so blardy late! if on the way home i get raped by some old woman, i'll hold tp responsible. and wed, was a very bad day, coz when i woke up in the morning, my left eye was pressed against my pillow, and when i lifted up my eye, whoa it was swollen. yes, my BAK JIU ZENG! and wed we also had a long 4hr project discussion in sch. i was really not in the mood coz my eyes were really damn irritated by the swell.
today also, the swell got worse, tt every lecturer who knew me asked me: 'did u peep at some woman bathing last nite?' so sickening! but of coz, no hard feelings haha. oh ya today tp had its open house, whoa the crowd was huge, but tmr and sat should have more ppl coming. but heng my business guides duty was only today frm 230-5. got a orange dry fit polo tee. today's crowd were mostly secondary sch kids, who were still sec4 or sec5, means this yr then they take their Os. their sch forced them to come to the open house. its not practical at all, i mean their main target now is to get pass the Os and worry about courses in the midst of getting their results, and not now. many of them do not know what they wan to pursue, so its really no point. so ya, principals of sec schs, if u ever get to read my blog, pls dun make such a stupid move by sending ur graduating kids to the open house, it doesn't make sense at all. those who came today jus wanted to quickly leave, and stephanie and sarah even brought them to MENSA to eat! they cared more abt food than their future, coz as i said, they dun really care abt choosing courses yet.
tmr, will be another day of projects, will be going to meet kaiwei jason they all at orchard. i really need tis outing, i will finally get a short break. decided to cut my hair after mon's presentation. i know its a nightmare everytime i cut, but im like wearing a helmet to sch everyday. update again when i have time. cya!

alright alright, my weekends were ruined! fri had to study for Biz accounting test and saturday i had the BA test itself. after tt still had make up BA lecture from 11-1. the test was still alright. ok to prevent us from copying in the lecture theatre, they printed two sets of papers, pink and white, and put them in alternate order on the seats. so i was thinking which set should i choose. so i thot tt writing on the pink set will be rather difficult to see, so i chose the white one. the setter for the test paper was so kind, they had the template ready for all of us, if not i sure die. turned out to be quite ok. quite. this is the first time i said 'quite ok' for a BA paper. normally i will curse BA. so we had the make up lecture after the test. my make up was supposed to be LT17, lynn's make up was also LT17. so i was thinking... y dun i crash shing's lecture for once at LT23. LT17 and LT23 r the first and last LTs of business sch respectively. so they r both at far ends.
then the make up lecture started, and 5mins into the lecture, i heard a familiar voice, and fricking hell it was lynn. whoa lao, she also come LT23 to crash her frens lecture! whoa i know i dun crash. as usual her voice was so loud and u can only hear her voice in the LT. haha and after tt i went for lunch with honey shing meijun and shing's fren, ian. ate kfc and we chatted and laughed quite abit. weeyang was sick so he stayed home in the tender loving care of his mama. and ya the rest of the weekends, i used it to do some final editions to my mbs project, which is finally completed! i always hate doing computer subjects' projects. i feel that they r of no use and a complete waste of time.
and tmr, i have to present the mbs project. i duno where to start, i duno where to end, and i also duno wat to say for it. hallelujah, god bless me.
Friday, January 13, 2006
wooo, finally got back all my mid-sem test papers. overall still not too bad, and i am very satisfied with it judging from the fact tt i kept delaying myself to study.
accounts: 28.5/40
stats: 45.5/50
organisational behaviour: 26/40
microecons: 90/100
french writing: 36/50
french listening: 19/20
managing business systems: 36.5/50
now there was another shocker from this load of papers. it's none other than my mbs. i duno wat did god do, but a miracle really happened. now i'm not tt kind of person whereby i will kay siao kay siao say tt i will get low marks when i know i will get high marks. like for econs and stats, i did expect to score. but for mbs, it was really really unexpected tt i got 36.5! for tt paper, i will be hapi if i jus pass it. coz my answers were like so short. 5 marks ans i give 5 half sentences, with every sentece having an average of 7words, and in the end i got the full marks. it was super super tyco. then for some globalzation challenges question, i knew nothing abt it at all. i jus used the word 'globalization' to come up with my own words and i got it right! like wat the hell! another 5-6marks! this type of luck only comes once in a blue moon. the last time it happened was when i got b3 for amaths during the Os, before tt was when i got an A for my PSLE chinese. ya i know its chnese, but i'm not really a JIANG HUA YU kind of guy, or rather i'm not really a XIE HUA YU kind of guy. this time i really have to thank god. and pls let this tyco-ness take me thru my mbs exams.
but today, i wun thank god tt its friday. friday marks the end of the studying week, and everybody will leave their lecture halls feeling very relieved and they will look forward to the weekends. but its friday today, and i have to go back for an accounting test tomorrow at 920am! i'm not the only one affected. ppl from the whole business studies, business IT and accounting & finance also kana. and after the test we will have a make up accounts lecture from 11-1am. and after tt i have to come home to do my mbs project, which is due on monday. status of weekends: burned! even my friday is burned. wat a start to a week, and wat an end to a week. i dun pin high hopes for accounts at all, it is always a very unexpected paper, whereby the answers from everyone always differ.
how boring, nothing exciting to blog abt, coz the thot of having to study for tests and complete projects make me sick. to all those having the accounts test tmr, mug hard and all the best.
this marks the end of my week... yawn...
Wednesday, January 11, 2006
i dun make enemies easily. but this is an exception. for about a week now i've been putting up with it, and i think it's time to let it all out. the irritatingness, the complexity of the situations, the disability to get what is expected, and all the failed trial and errors. yes! it's u! MICROSOFT ACCESS! stupid gayfag lameshit programme. even creating a webpage using dreamweaver is much easier to understand. when i grow up and get a job, i will make sure i will find a job that has anything but the use of database, coz i've seriously had enuf. MBS project is 1/2 done. i did 3/4 of the things required, but they still need further adjustments and improvements. so it's more or less still half done. ok if u r those cheapopo type who likes precise statements, it is about 5/8 done.
hari raya haji, a public holiday, and i sat on my com chair to do the damn it project with little progress. but at least everyday i know, that i am taking one small step... so it ain't tt hopeless. ok enuf abt the projects.
monday was jason's birthday, and all of us didn't get a chance to give him a birthday bash. and i couldn't meet them coz i had to stay in sch for OB project till 8pm at nite. but thankfully it rained and so they jus went out for dinner at nite. i met them at tm for dinner after my project. felt so bad, for 20mins, about 10ppl were waiting for me, and it's not like i'm the bday boy. ate at phin's and we bought fish and chips since it was only $9.90. whoa i tell u their fish and chips ah, super super super super no taste. they had two kinds of fish and chips. one is the traditional one, which is also known as the normal one. the other is called BEER BATTER. most of us ordered the normal one and weijie ordered the beer batter. the only diff in appearance was the skin of the fillet. but the taste, is exactly the same! really exactly the same. super no taste. we totally regret eating tt, and to add to our misery, we realised we could have actually gone to fish & co. at b1 to eat fish and chips.
and the phin's waiter is so wierd. he took our orders and talked to us and out of the blue he laughed like hell. then he came over to my side to take orders again, he laughed again. i duno wat's going on but if he was entertaining himself then i really duno wat to say. then when we paid the bill, he also came and laugh. i think he has some mad laughing disorder where he randomly laughs at things he sees.
oh and monday's news said that there will be rain for 5 straight days. monday was day1. so until friday, it will rain. how boring. it will be so inconvenient to go to sch. oh well i better go sleep now, tmr got accounts tutorial. cya.
Sunday, January 08, 2006
Whohoo, wat a way to end this week. Nothing much happened in sch after the new year. only managed to get back my accounts mid sem test results. i got 28.5/40, ok la for me. i only aimed to pass accounts anyway. i'm really beginning to hate it. for MBS, mr nair didn't wana give us back coz he said got quite a few CASUALTIES. wat a word to use. he also said that he didn't wana spoil the new year and our hari raya haji. haha so fri ended this weeks lessons and i went for the NE forum. it was so so short. coz NE forums are always 2hrs, but the one on fri only lasted for 1hr. so unexpected, but of coz, y would i complain? went back to simei to have my dotA match. 1 match lasts for an average of 50mins to 1hr, but the one on fri was really damn godly. it lasted for 2 whole hours! in the end it cost me $5 inside the stupid LAN shop, and the worse part was that we lost. oh hell, it was a very exciting game anyway.
haha and oh ya i got this sms from meijun asking me whether i wanted to go for shing's chalet on fri nite anot. coz shing's auntie booked it but she wun be able to come on the first nite and she will only come on the 2nd nite for a family bbq. so shing had the whole chalet to herself for the first nite. so yeah i went, with weeyang meijun and shixian (shing's sister). it was such an impromptu thing as we reached the chalet at 10pm. and i only got informed of it at 7pm. but haha it was fun, although there were only 5ppl in total. and yep, many pics below, time for another story.
Meijun brought this shark for us to play with in the chalet. dun say its childish, coz its actually quite a fun game. u see all the lower teeth of the shark? ya each person takes a turn to press one tooth down. there will be one unlucky tooth whereby when u press it down, the shark's mouth will close immediately! so thrilling. haha.
yep, this was the only tooth left, so it will the the one where the sharks mouth will close if u press that tooth down.
weeyang and i forgot to bring our toothbrushes. and we really regretted, coz our teeth turned black. they're decaying!
me meijun weeyang shing and our new found fren, mr shark.
all the people in the chalet.
after playing we were tired, so i took a little nap......
.... but an idiot woke me up by trying to give me "massage"
kids dun try this at home. actually its not pain one la haha i'm jus acting. WWE!
whahaha!!!! my turn!!!!!!
after playing for so long, we got hungry and went to cook noodles for ourselves. queueing up for hot water.
yum yum!
oh boy, apparently my mouth wasn't big enuf to consume whole bowl at once.
the best way to gain some weight: going to sleep straight after eating.
the heads of 4 out of 7 lamers. trust me, it's lame enuf to make the room freeze.
we did eventually sleep at 530am, and woke up at 11am. then we arranged the bed nicely so her auntie wun have a hard time. went home after that, and for the rest of the saturday afternoon, i did my MBS project. deadlines for all my projects r all so near each other. schedule is tight, time is limited, and to top it off... my timetable sux big time. guess this sem will be a busy one until the study break.
tkc ppl! shall blog again! and tag tag tag tag tag!
Saturday, January 07, 2006
i will update again on monday. i rushing MBS project for the weekends. tahan!
Sunday, January 01, 2006
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERY1! jus came home, and its now 740am, so shagged. sleepy yet i jus bathed, so blog abit first b4 i sleep.
whohoho, last nite was a blast at orchard with the new year's eve countdown. went with the usual 106 guys. there were abt 13 of us. first we went to cineleisure coz sijun's clan had dotA competition. sijun has nv met them b4 coz they met over the internet, and today they had to meet for the first time. was kind of a shocker actually, with 90% of them looking nerdy, very very nerdy. think they were more of game freaks. haha his clan's teamwork wasn't as good compared to their opponents. and his clan leader is not very strong, so in the end they lost in the first round. the bad news is tt they lost, the good news for sijun was tt he was able to join us for the countdown.
and the main highlight was the countdown itself. we bought a lot of sprays to spray the banglas. when the clock struck 12, havoc began. every1 began to spray every1 else and it was really beyond the control of the police. singaporeans were united for the first time up against the stinky banglas. they damn fuck, keep taking advantage of girls. the police even caught a few of them and handcuffed them. the 13 of us also met a few of our own frens there, be it schoolmates or outside frens. so we all combined to form a big group. then one bangla came to spray me. and abt 18 of us raped him back! his black skin totally turned white. whahahaha so fun. then we spray all the banglas. i went up to one and pointed to the floor and said:'eh ur lanjiao on the floor!' then he looked down and i began spraying him. whoa then heard from ah mok tt one chio bu fell down. the banglas really damn f**k. they went to touch her. dun ask me where, coz they touched EVERYWHERE. the girl screamed but the banglas ran away. whoa sibei dulan. haha we found empty boxes on the floor. so we took them and used them as shields haha. it was really like a battleground.
then we met some malay boys who wished us happy new year and we ganged up to disturb the banglas. coz we were really angry tt they were touching girls anyhow. every1 was protecting their gfs. justin and edwin used a box to cover the banglas head, then they started whacking and kicking the bangla. then they ran away. whohoo then i also extra extra go there spray him so he wun be able to see edwin and justin while they ran. haha, war tactics. then got these 4 indians, so stupid, they dun wana kana sprayed then they still step into the middle of the battleground. we also duno they dun like to be sprayed, so we sprayed them and they shouted at us saying: 'CAN U ALL DUN SPRAY?! SO RUDE!' then i shouted: 'F**K U, DUN WANA KANA SPRAY THEN DUN COME ORCHARD, GO HOME SLEEP LA.' stupid gayfags. haha and we saw one REN YAO (bapok). whoa so scary, a guy with lion king's hair and lipstick, utter disgusting. we were shocked. the ren yao even smiled at justin. whahaha i think he no need sleep already.
oh ya then went into cineleisure. saw felicia with her boyfriend. wished her happy new year. she is the first 1b20 classmate tt i saw during 2006. if she is good, she will extend my contract of being her weight manager. hey, i am effective alright.
played dotA at the lan shop and we owned! left at 322am and went to slack and eat at mac till 530 then went to wait for the first train(which only came at 6am) and here i am now! blogging! shit sch is gona start, i haven started on projects and tutorials... mati! aiya heck la, happy new year!
