GUOBIN being retarded with a purple umbrella. What's new.

Everyone's shocked that KENNETH is doing homework.

OLIVIA looks quite cute here. =)

I forgot to upload the Guobin kowtowing to Princess Lyly series. Next time, people.

Okay, ARES fac outing. We must support our fac!

P/S: 32nd OAC rocks.

guobin says:
Hey hey hey! Haven't blogged in quite a while here, though I have been tagging.

DANCE DANCE! I'm officially in love with Franz Ferdinand and Fall Out Boy. These bands are BRILLIANT. I dunno if it's something special, but they strike a chord in me that vibrates insanely for a LONG, LONG TIME. DANCE DANCE!

Kenneth (a.k.a. Pimp Wankstar) wants to form a band. Though we know shit about playing instruments. I've taken up his spot as drummer- gonna take lessons I guess. Any more applicants? Kenneth's gonna be our lead guitarist, mm. Haha we sound so nooby compared to Ruiyi.

And I'm not retarded all the time. Meh. Lol stupid umbrella stunt. I can be very sensitive, kind, caring, gentle, honorable, wonderful, elegant, inspiring, vocal with the right people =) Ha ego-ness. Joking la! I'm just retarded. =)

(I did come up with all those words on the spot, hee hee.)

DANCE DANCE! WE'RE FALLING APART TO HALF-TIME!

Might speak again too. I'm so in love with *********!!!!

JERRYALE QUOTES:

hey guys. was reading some econs stuff for some reason (don't ask me why haha), and came across this ridiculously funny and witty article put forth by some baby-hating economists. oh yea and its not my fault if this article convinces you ha. oh yea and all the brackets in the article are my random comments. Enjoy.

Mum's the Word. When Children should be screened and not heard.

We live in increasingly intolerant times. Signs profilerate (like as in nuclear proliferation) demanding no smoking, no spitting, no parking, even no walking ... Posh clubs and restaurents have long had "no jeans" rules, but these days you can be too smart. Some London hostelries have "no suits" policies, for fear that boisterous city traders in suits might spoil the atmosphere. Environmentalists have long demanded all sorts of bans on cars. Mobile telephones are the latest target: some trains, airline lounges, restaurants, and even golf courses are being designated "no phone areas" (what will phone companies do man. their business KO le.)

If tolerance really has to be the spirit of this age, The Economist would like to suggest restrictions on another source of noice pollution: children. Lest you dismiss this as mere prejudice, we can even produce a good economic argument for it. Smoking, driving and mobile phones all cause what economists call "negative externalities." That is, the costs of these activities to other people tend to exceed the costs to the individuals of their proclivities (wah must learn this word . so cheem) The invisible hand of the market fumbles, leading resources astray. Thus because a driver's private motoring costs do not reflect the costs he imposes on others in the form of pollution and congestion, he uses the car more than is socially desirable. Likewise, it is argued, smokers take too little care to ensure that their acrid fumes do not damage other people around them.

Government typically respond to such market failures in two ways. One is higher taxes, to make polluters pay the full cost of their anti-social behaviour (haha smokers = antisocial. lol.). The other is regulation, such as emission standards on smoking in public places. Both approaches might work for children. ( i am thinking now of taxes and regulations being imposed on children. makes children a kind of commodity don't you think?)

For children, just like cigarettes or mobile phones, clearly impose a negative externality on people who are near them. Anybody who has suffered a 12 hour flight with bawling babies in the row immediately ahead, or a bored youngster viciously kicking their seat from behind, will grasp this as quickly as they would love to grasp the youngster's neck (haha. i somehow get the mental image of wringing chicken necks and plucking out their feathers. ouch). Here is a clear case of market failure: parents do not bear the full costs (indeed young babies travel free), so they are too ready to take their noisy brats with them. Where is the invisible hand when it is needed to adminster a good smack?

The solution is obvious. All airlines, trains and restaurants should create child-free zones (like smoking free zones yea?) Put all those children at the back of the plane and parents might make more effort to minimize noise pollution. And instead of letting children pay less and babies go free (free as in dun need to pay for bus rides, not free as in set free in the wild, like animals; or go scot-free like criminals), they should be charged (or taxed) more than adults, with the revenues used to subsideize seats immediately in the front of the war-zone (haha.)

Passengers could then request a no-children seat, just as they now ask for a no-smoking one. As more women choose not to have children and the number of older people without young children increases, the demand for child-free travel will expand. Well yes, it is a bit intolerant - but why shouldn't parents be treated as badly as smokers? And at least there is an obvious airline to pioneer the scheme: Virgin (get it? this is funny.)

- This is the end of the article. Hope you all enjoyed it. -

Well done everyone who took part in the heats today. You did good. =)

Presenting to you the photos from CT session yesterday. Haha. Not very well taken, but I guess you guys are alright with that.

Can't seem to upload Kenneth's and Shum's photo, but I think we all agree theirs was the funniest.

It's been a tiring week and I'm awfully glad it's over. Next week's the dreaded week 5. URGH. It's funny how fast time flies eh? We're already halfway into term 2. I think we must cherish JC1 because it's going to pass by so quickly and I don't think I am looking forward to JC2.

I'm sleepy. Goodnight world.

hallo. Super exhausted from Parent's Day/Night/Meeting with the guy who speaks nonstop abtnonsensicalandunwittybuthethinksitswittythingsduringspeech. yes. I have immersed myself in homework and inhaling the aura like a worthy mugger. I am doing Geog at 12:01 Am with the prompting of junhong who has kindly reminded me dat our BELOVED Human geog teacher left us some DRQs. Immersed in a river of muggerness, eating a bowl of muggeriflakes and suffering from many mugerrefects. Life has been muggerified and i'm missing the old anti-no-mug-mug-mug-a-mug situations. But it is a fact of life that we must pass this years promos. So easy to get retained. Dun believe me go check the criteria. It sux. And "S" Papers are ghey!!!!

If you ever get your hands on any economics textbooks published in the 80s, you'd find that subsidies never existed. Taxes, on the other hand, are always there, just like your friendly neighbourhood Death

TRACEE SAYS:
I wanted to thank those people who stayed throughout the ~~very boring~~ research symposium to listen to my humble presentation right at the end. I know it was very tempting to leave halfway like what most of the audience did.

Okay, the saga over sabbaticals. I think the school system is very frustrating and I'm glad there are so many smart people in HCI who have discovered ways to get around the laggy system.

For those who haven't signed up yet, there are still spaces available. It's not like every module is at its max, but there ARE some okay modules around. No need for belly dancing yet.

Can I ask whether our LEAPS is on this coming saturday or not?

But it looks like the date for our JTS is finally confirmed. We are seriously like the last class to organize JTS.

Banana Nut Crunch. Has got to be the best cereal on earth.

leeyang says:

the outlandish plots of bollywood movies are seriously fascinating, they make me want to renounce my studies and turn to indian dancing as a profession. this is very troubling. how does the couple flirtatiously flying kites on a river dam suddenly end up dancing under the big ben? dear me, shah rukh khan, you should have complained to the director that doesnt make sense chronologically! and then there's the scene where a crazed man runs around an empty building holding a laupok diskette shouting "VIRUS VIRUS" at the top of his lungs to himself while the indian equivalent of a SWAT team gather outside ready to knock down the walls for a.. diskette. employ me as an extra to dance around palm trees! today's death method is death by choking on maths tutorial 4a. goodbye cruel world!

I've been terribly unlucky these few days. Well, more than I usually am.

Falling backwards into green plants and screaming the F word loud enough to rouse the entire HCI staffroom.
Oversleeping on bus and getting rained upon anyway.
Kena caught for sleeping.
Kena caught for never do math.
Over-pulled my left leg.

And taekwondo grading is on SUNDAY. Should I go for the friday training? I'm afraid of over-straining my left leg.

Speaking of which, I feel totally drained and unwilling to do anything except crash. Leeyang reckons I should die by taking Kenneth's adidas deodorant and spraying it up my nose. Be right back, then.

aiya how ah i haven't done PI and its sort of due tomorrow. if i can't finish by tonight, i might suddenly come down with a case of "severe lethargy" and not attend school tomorrow. i think my PI is going to suck so bad quek chokes on his coffee, accidentally stabs himself with his red pen, go into cardiac arrest and start foaming at the mouth. help me la.

But I'll probably lose my groove by the next training... >.>

ANYHOW... since our egroups is(or is it are?) practically dead, I'll use this here spot to announce some stuff:

All year books/clothes/bags/shoes left at the class bench please claim your owners by the end of this week and return home(or mars, whichever is closer). Either that, or tag yourselves with your owner's name, or I'll start adopting. *evil grin*

Keep Bdae expenditures below $30, I repeat T-H-I-R-T-Y, 3-0, T-H-R-E-E-Z-E-R-O. Fungmin is not an ATM/money changer/bank/loan shark.

There are books which should be read before you die, but stay away from them if you are still young and hopeful.

oei you all stop mugging and come post la, this blog is a wonderful outlet for expressing our creativity in various ways. today's death method is by being run over by a cement mixer. alternatively, i can choose to get choked on my mother's GMD dinner (Grotesque Marine Delights (fish, stingray, shark, possibly whale as well), not to be confused with China's Guo Min Dang). And i need to start sedating my mother and restraining her, her fingers are starting to fuse with the xbox consoles. and congrats to a13 councillors jianyang and yeekai =D

1 random thing to do during break tomorrow

Buy a plate of rice from the chicken rice uncle. Go back to your seat and start counting the number of grains of rice. Then, go back to the stall uncle and proceed to create a scene, insisting you were cheated out of 8 grains of rice. THIS IS ONLY FOR SEVERELY BORED PEOPLE LIKE ME.

By the fact i rarely blog anything, this thing i am blogging is apparently of public concern. It is believed econs tests are graded randomly, discerning the fact that tracy and shumin got 16, but fuji, jeriel both got 9. This is a matter that causes public disquiet. I PERSONALLY have the answer key from my seniors and i got 9! A CASE OF MISCARRIAGED JUSTICE. Sigh... but nontheless us crestfallen monosyllabic marked students can do nth to our grades as mortals to God. To the teachers this event may just be like a falling maple leaf in the courtyard, worthless, but it is the world to us. ARGGGHHHH

leeyang says:

oh i'm home so early! i sort of exempted myself from chinese lesson and i feel so bad for breaking tanyang's fragile heart. im so lag my picture can be found in the thesarus under the word LAZY. to emphasize the point, i think my name is synonymous with the word SLACK. and im not going to be a journalist la, im going to be a housewife and slack away at home and the most momentous decision i make daily will be what to cook for dinner. karweng suggested that today's weapon of choice will be sharpened chopsticks from hc canteen. goodbye cruel world!

jon says:
i think kenneth will love you for breaking tanyang's fragile heart.

Possible Ideas for PI:
1. Mugging as a tradition.
- Greatly improves knowledge
- knowledge based-economy (wadeva la)
- Sources: erm, any muggers. I think our school got a lot. Our class may have a few. or alternatively can find all the ex-4H muggers.
- Feasibility: very feasible becoz we are all susceptible to it.
- Interviews: Anyone interviewing our dear CT rep?? ( haha jk:P but seriously can consider hmmm :P)

2. Stoning as a development
- encourages new creative ways of slacking
- very good for development for slackerism
-Sources: I believe can interview ourselves. I am a victim of such a development- such a good use to kill time especially in between all the " ok, alrights."
- Feasibility: Sources aplenty. Providing a momentum for such a GREAT development would be greatly approved. Don't you think?
-Interviews: hmmm, stoners:P

3. Development of weird accents.
- Provides entertainment ( GO JOB!)
- Improves english?? ( govt say no singlish. wadeva lah.)
- Sources: plenty.
- Feasibility: can la hor?
- Interviews: Anyone who can do it.

Sorry i v wu2 liao2 so come up with this. sianzor. PI kills brain cells. Save me.

I really want to hurry up and get all the money by Monday. =) I know all of you are a bit sian of passing up money and stuff, but I suppose we don't have much of a choice, do we?

I think this week is Lit homework weekend, judging by the pile of work that someone gave us. I haven't been doing much (in fact just finished my Icarus last night) though.

Was marking the Econs timed assignment samples and I have a really bad feeling about my own. >.<>leeyang says:

hello i realise its a rather unhealthy obsession to be talking about maths on all my blog posts. so, i shall talk about the big unglam pile of lit jackie spammed! after doing lit chapter 1, i realised my inferring skills have just reached new heights, because i keep spamming my wild unfounded suspicions about raju! i've so many rumours about raju on my foolscap paper the taiwan paparazzi can come worship me! so, im a very good member of the GC, as i possess an uncanny ability to scandalise people by inferring about their little deeds and cooking up stories about them! kidding la haha. and i think im very humji, because i dont dare to do maths now. the weapon of choice today to stab myself will be... my mother's rusty hairpin! goodbye cruel world!
