3rd Week of School

I’m squeezing so much brain juice for my subjects but nothing creative comes out. I suppose I’m not into electronics projects. During labs, the lab supervisors just endlessly yap non-stop about how interesting we can all make the projects to be. Yes, it’s interesting but not if they are 22 years old students figuring out a bunch of cold metallic pins stucked in green silicon board and with school notes that are not that any much helpful. E-books I love you. You save my day some times. Fortunately, I have a new companion with me. During the breaks when I put my eyes away from the notes (and facebook), Domo-kun is out to play. He steals my door card and assumes my identity, gets shocked over his own reflection and faints. How cute is that! Haha.

I shall be optimistic.

iPad is out. Fantastic. Check it out. Information available only on US website. What about iPhone OS 3.2? Still in Beta I guess.

Tell Me Not The Things I Do Not Want To Hear

It sure sucks to feel this way. Friends ask me why I don’t want to apply for overseas exchange. I got to go through the long story of explaining because the entire 90% of tuition fees are loaned from bank. My parents do not have the money for my school fees so it’s my liability for this sum of money. If I were to go for overseas exchange, I would require probably another $10 000 to $14 000 or even more if I were to look at countries like US or UK. That’s about half of the entire 4 year course fees I would have to bear. I certainly would not want to enslave myself to so much debt.

My friends then continued to talk about how it will all work out when I get a fantastic paying job in the future… I’ll tell them that the future’s not up to me to predict and all that. However, the full stop comes only after I say even if I want to, my GPA’s not up to it. That’s the sad truth. With that having said, people will just tell me to try harder while on the other hand continue to lament how their CGPA has dropped. However, to me, it’s all very fantastic already… Maybe there’s never enough for the things you get and people may not be truly empathetic to my plight. I try filter out the things I do now want to listen but there is a limit to how much I can bear. Sigh…

A: I’m just bored, talk to me.
B: (Plugs in earpiece)

What’s the meaning of this? Shutting A out of B’s world? Bored –> Pissed

Just for Laughs

This clip is darn funny. If this was not exaggerated at all, I would really be bewildered by the level of intelligence of the Americans. Here’s some extracts, (*Spoilers ahead*)

A: How many sides does a triangle have?
B: Er, I don’t know…. Four?

A: Name me a country that starts with ‘U’.
B: Hmm…. (pause for damn long)…
A: Ok, how about…
B: What..?
A: United States of America
B: Awwwoh……

A: Is Kofi Anan a coffee?
B: I would think so?

A: Who won the Vietnam war?
B: Er…. we did?
B: Wait…. did we even participate in that?

A: What is Hiroshima and Nagasaki famous for?
B: Well… I would say that it’s judo-wrestling?

A: How many Eiffel towers are there in Paris?
B: Oh, there’s about 10 of them.

LOL…. Best! Haha. Oh, “just for laughs” is coming to Asia! The asian edition will prevail soon I believe. Not sure when.

Maybe when you are feeling all alone, find something to amaze yourself. Believe me, boredom is just temporary. Being alone doesn’t make you the strangest person on earth that people are alienating you or you got no friends. Just somehow somewhere, fate has a plan for everyone else but you. Ha, just joking about the last sentence. =)
