"wise" phrases...

well... it seems like i haven't said all i wanted to... XP haha...
and since i'm updating some stuff... minus well just update my blog too... ;)

been thinking and getting some "wise" phrases lately...

-> we study to live, not live to study!!

-> i was born intelligent, it was education that ruined me. (XP haha)

-> Study more, know more. Know more, forget more. Forget more, know less. Why study then?? (HAHAHAHA...)

and this is the REFINED version for the LIFE IS ALL ABOUT PIECES OF PAPER...

We study piles of paper, (books)
To get a piece of paper, (certificate)
To study EVEN more paper, (EVEN MORE books)
And get more pieces of paper. (EVEN MORE qualifications)
We then use these papers,
To earn stacks and pieces of paper. (MONEY)


i pity all the trees... (XP)

o ya!...
in case you guys reading my blog was wondering why i use suck weird nicknames like BiBi, Frog, Pig, Cow, Ju Yok Weng, etc...
it is because i dont want to say their names out directly and onli people who really know these people will recognize these nicknames... hehe... i dont want to HURT these people and don wan to cause any thing because of me saying their names out... ESPECIALLy some people... my mom... who JUST dislikes me talking about her in this blog of MINE... even when i just say "mom"... not her NAME... -.-" haih...

so.. tat's all... i REALLY hope so.. XP haha...

gtg.. dinner time... ;)

really HIGH today :D | dreaming of upgrading my pc...

well.. our class, has been pretty known for CHAIRING people, aruba, and all sorts of "bullying".. (if that is what you want to call it... but actually both the "victim" and "bully" has fun... no real injuries done... ;))

just to shed some ligt on these few "technical" terms...

Chairing someone is to pin a person on the floor, and put a chair on him (not on his body, but at his side so he cant get up) and let some one sit on it... making him totally defenseless... hehe.. most of the time.. this is followed by drawing on the persons body... just his feet... BOTTOM of his feet preferbly XP haha... and mayb his body... this is onli done to those we know well and we know wont mind having some FUN... haha...

as for aruba... i think u guys shud hav heard it b4... it is to hold a guy up, spread his legs.. and "bang" the THING in between the legs on something.. like a pillar or door... we don't really bang it in.. just do it for fun... really... ;P haha... o ya... there is also a female version... called ajiba... XD haha...

so...
to the real content...

our school has this annual affair of sand papering tables and re-"Shilek"ing them... so... today was the day for this...
after everything was done... (with some humour and jokes along the way, which i m just to lazy to describe... XP) we were very HIGH... and we noticed that the form 5s opposite our class was starting some commotion (normally it was onli us... XP) so it sparked our "HIGHness" (XP)

first... our REGULAR.. mr. Mushroom... was ARUBAed to the door... with all the other people even from the form 5s looking at us... haha...

then... BiBi, kissed "Ju Yok Weng"... TWICE.. don't ask me what made him do that...
all i know is that Mr. JSR pretended to want to kiss him.. a few times before... but never really did... and BiBi just finished it for him today... XS
then... he continued to kiss Pig and Cow... swt...
took all their "first kiss" liao... kesihannya... XS haha...

then... with everyone's wrath...
we and the next class (BiBi's class)... we CHAIRED BIBI!!!.. o ya.. fyi... BiBi is VERY VERY FAT... we tried to chair and pin him b4.. but never could... this time.. we finally did it!!!.. WOOHOO!!... XP haha... Unity is Strength!!... XP hahaha...

phew... just thinking and retelling everything also makes me sweat... haha...

haih...
Mr. Frog wants to buy a new computer...
asked me if buying his own parts and assembling his own pc is a good idea...
and well... i said yes... cause we can buy the parts we like and the total is actually cheaper than those that are bought set-up already... really... that is if you don't mind all the hassle of fixing all the hardware up and getting the softwares running... which actually... isn't very hard... XP

so.. as i was also DREAMING of upgrading my pc too...
we made up our mind to go to Low Yat and get the latest specs and prices...
so... we did... and we went... last Sunday..

i was there early as i went there straight after church service... so.. i bought movie tickets for them first and read Full Metal Alchemist comics in Borders while waiting for them.. XP
Yok Weng and Lui Lui came too... after a quick meal at McD in Time Square... we went to Low Yat.. asked around and gathered some of the price lists... but we were in quite a rush for we had to go back to TS to catch a movie... i went to watch Superman Returns while the others watched Pirates of the Caribbean 2...

well... i watched POTC2 the day before... because a friend of mine phoned me and said he could drive me there, AND BACK, wif his bro, my sis and another friend. So, since he is driving.. OFCOZ I'LL GO!! XP haha...

so... anyway...
back to the computer thing...
now... quite a few people want to upgrade their computers... or BUILD one too...
all because of me starting the hype... XP haha...
Frog needs to save up some money.. so he will buy his at the earliest at the end of the year...
Yok Weng has some financial support... (from his mom ofcoz).. so he wanted me to write a list of things to buy for him... XP and i did... quite good actually...
then there is Stool, Cow and Pig... Pig says he wants to upgrade his processor... and might upgrade it pretty soon...
anyway...
as i heard... there is a price war between AMD and Intel... so there will be a price slash in August... 40% or 60% i think i heard... should b 40%... XP
so... anyway... i advised them to buy their stuff in August... coz that's when the processors will drop in price, so as all the other stuff... for these IT stuff just never stop dropping in price... :| the longer you wait the cheaper it gets... but the more out-dated it becomes too... XS haih...

so... anyway...
these are MY DREAM PC upgrades.. not anything to scream for... but that's what i think we NORMAL CITIZENS can afford and is pretty good... FOR ME at least... XP

Pentium Dual Core 960 3.4GHz
2x512MB Kingston DDR2 667 PC5300
80GB Western Digital SATA2 HDD
200GB or 250GB "
a mother board which can support all the above...
a casing which can support the motherboard... (coz my present MoBo and casing is actually smaller than normal Mobos and casings... =.=" haizz... Acer...)
and mayb even a new PCI-E graphic card... coz new MoBos normally don't have AGP slots anymore... and my current graphic card is AGP... =.=" .. but that would be later... no $$ no talk... T.T

ok...
now lets get to the movie part... (so much to talk about lately... XP)

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 : Dead Man's Chest...
overall...
it was quite a nice movie...
packed with action and suspense.... not to mention humour and some totally FAKE scenes... like the part where Cap. Jack jumps over the cliff and lands on another like an athlete using a pole strapped to his back... and then falling so far down and not being injured... (well.. all movies are these fake anyway... XP)
but there is just one part i dont really like and find quite lame...
the part where those 3 men fight for the key to the chest... it was dragged way too long and was pretty lame... =.=" and Keira Knightley's line... "OOoh.. the heat..." and fainting.. that was like... SWTNESS!!!... =.=" haha...
anyway...
i like this movie... but the ending was really an anti-climax man... ARGH... wat a way to end a movie... Cap. Jack seemingly dead and his rebelled crew, Barbosa returning to life... woah.. just makes me unpatient for the next movie man!!...
THEY HAD IT IN THEIR HEADS TO MAKE A 3rd MOVIE AFTER ALL!!... tat's good actually.. but i juz don like endings like this... =.=" haha...
anyway.... i juz can't forget "I've got a jar of dirtt... I've got a jar of dirt... I've got a jar of di-..", PLOP PLOP PLOP... hahahahahaha... (don't know what this is? GO WATCH THE MOVIE!!!... hahaha)

as for Superman Returns...
well...
the story ain't too bad... quite true to the comic...
but the onli thing bad about it.. like many would say... is its slow pace... making it quite sien... the mushy mushy parts were just dragged too long... XS
my advise?...
well... unless you are really a superman fan... skip this movie...
yup... my honest opinion... (sorry Bryan Singer... XS)
_______________________________________

phew!.. tat's a lot said... XP haha... tat's wat i get when i have so much to say but don get time to update my blog at my own pace... XP haha... well... at least this is done...

been kinda busy... still have my HTML project to do...
and just when i tought i have finished it all...
i get another request from a classmate to help type her oral script... =.="
but... ofcourse.. i do it with some benefit that i can get... i'm lazy to say what kind of benefits... but financial benefit is DEFINETELY part of it... MuAHAHAHAHA...


so... all that i want to say has been said... i think... :S

so... SAYONORA... ADIOS.. TATA!!...

Life is all about pieces of papers...

just think about this for a sec...
why do we study?...
for a piece of paper... a certificate...
why go to university?...
also for a piece of paper... a degree... a masters... a Ph.D (permanent head damage.. =.=")?..
and...
why do we study so hard?...
also for pieces of paper...
MONEY...
never thought about it that way eh?...

guess what sparked this thought of mine...

well... i was with a friend coming back from skool...
and we took Rapid KL which onli costs RM1 to travel all the way from Jln Ipoh to my house... and... since we onli nid to show the RM1 ticket when we change buses... my friend made a comment..
"This is one valueble piece of paper... it gets me all the way home for onli RM1..." and WUALAH!.. this chain of thoughts juz struck me... XP haha...

THE WEATHER'S GONE MAD!!...
when it is hot it is BURNING... like an outdoor oven... even at 5pm!!!... OMG...
and when it rains.. it is so so so heavy!!... plus all the thunder and lightning!!..
yup..
it is really a year of EXTREMES... especially EXTREME WEATHER... @.@
____________________________________________

well...
had a friendly basket ball match against 4s5 today...
it was really a FRIENDLY match.. literally...
too friendly in fact...
to cut the whole thing short...
there was this guy from 4s5 whose birthday was today...
so about after the 1st half...
everytime he got the ball... we would make way for him to score... we won't mark him... and just open a path for him... XP haha... ofcourse... he wasn't a very good player.. just playing for fun... XP haha.. he didn't score everytime we let him pass... XP haha..
and... one of the best players in 4s5... which happens to be one of my good friends was just playing a fool... dribbling the ball in all sorts of wacky ways..
for example... holding his waist with one hand while dribbling really really slow... and raising his hands up horizontally after dribbling the ball once... (i will leave it for you to imagine how he really does that... XP)
and... anyway.. we won by at around 10 marks... XP

downloading the photos i took of the match with my W810i (XP) into my computer now... hehe... just love my phone... never miss an unforgettable moment anymore.. and able to catch WACKY and HILARIOUS moments...

well... yea.... that's all for now...

make sure you guys remember your umbrellas and sun lotions!... the weather is WACKO!... XP haha...

GOT MY PC BACK!!... yea!!!

yah...
it's a lil late to say this..
but... yup...
I FINALLY GOT MY PC BACK!!... XP (already around 2 weeks plus late news... XP haha...)
so... anyway...
with the help of my mom saying she wants me to help her burn CDs and DVDs... and me having to do my HTML project (as a "reason" ofcourse XP), and a bit or negotiations on the "Terms of Use"... i got it back... hehe.. :D

so... why so late for sharing the news?...
well... it is easy to guess...
the moment i got my pc back...
was busy downloading tons of songs... and videos... mainly the Bleach episodes... XP haha...
__________________________________________________________

What's wrong with the weather lately ah??...
7pm liao still the sun still shining so bright and hot...

had to play in the hot sun even at 4pm yesterday with 4A3... but luckily... not only our class no form... even our opponent... and we won... i forgot how much.. XP just happy that we won... ;D and i scored 2 points!.. not much.. but.. at least i scored... XP gotto do better next time... ;)
haih... but too bad we only got 3rd place in the interclass basketball tournament.. haizz... may talk more about this next time... (XP)
__________________________________________________________

haih... been quite busy lately...

the HTML projects coming up fine... the website is about Street Racing... hehe... tryin my best to make it as cool as possible... complete with pics of tricked out and souped up cars and videos of drifting and other driving stunts... ;)

then... there's that Star NIE project which is due TOMORROW... and i only started doing it with my team YESTERDAY!!... holy... XP haha... luckily it aint too hard... finished the writing parts and 1 poster... the ideas of the other 2 posters i gave to my other team members (not to mention the 1st one also... =.=") and they should be finished with it by tomorrow... THEY HAVE TO... =.="
o ya... the NIE thing is about planning a campaign based on a few themes the Star has set... and my team has chosen Social Values and is doing campaign PLANNING (no.. we don't really run the campaign... XP) titled "Say NO to School Violence".. talk on the late uprising of violence and bullies in schools...
it's not like i wanted to do this... not like i would give a D*MN.. but.. because my teacher told us to.. and well... my english teacher ain't bad... in fact she's quite good to us.. so... better not put her down loh... (and since my english is counted quite good by my school's standards.. XP it ain't a big problem anyway... haha)

then...
my teacher wants me to join this essay writing competition.. which organised my MPH i think... (all because my english is good... XP haha..)
the title has got something to do with Time... something like why sometimes Time seems to crawl so slow that minutes feel like ages and yet sometimes years just fly by in a blink of an eye... quite an interesting topic i would say... ;)
and i have to write at least 1000 words... which... isn't much of a problem for me... XP never had a problem writing too little words for an essay... even for Chinese and Malay compositions and essays... in fact... i exceed the limit very often... XP haha...

so...

gtg... i'm a busy guy... XP haha..
chow~

Goodbye my PC... Goodbye my friend... T.T

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or just go to tbun?
'Cause I fear i'd never get you back again,
Yes I knew i had to let things be for a while.
So all i could do was blog.
Took my PC away...
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've stroked your mouse and touched your keys.
Shared your videos and shared your pics.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my PC.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my day you make.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you crash, seen you upgrade.
I've watched you defragment for a while.
I'd be the gamer at your screen.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I need you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my PC.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I hold your mouse in my hand,
which you were still mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your keys.

Goodbye my PC.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, PC, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

XP sorry for the "lameness"...
the whole thing was done out of PURE BOREDOM... and to juz amuse myself... XP

this just adds to my already stupidly boring and unlucky holiday...
WORST OF MY SCHOOL LIFE SO FAR!!!...

2nd...
then... while playing b.ball... i dunno how.. but my pants ripped... (SWTNESS~~) but luckyily it was at the bottom... and well.. not really visible and none of my friends cared.. so... who cares~.. XP
3rd....
it started to rain... and coz we onli started playing a while... we continued playing in the rain... and it got really really slippery... so... well... i think u kinda guessed it... i slipped and knocked the back of my head... (*OUCH*)
4th....
then.. on the way home... i found out someone stole my money!!!... OMG!!... i don mean to suspect any of my friends... but... it seems tat onli one of them could've stole my money... haih... i just let it be...

then.... after this series of MISFORTUNES... had to get FIRED left n right from my dad bcoz of grades... and well... yup.. computer taken away... T.T sob.. sob..

then... that's not all of it..

i m expected to STUDY STUDY STUDY 24/7 during the hols!!

then... went to the photoshop i was supposed to work in during the hols... the boss told me he employed someone else already because i did not confirm wif him if i wanted the job... =.=" all because my dad fired me and said "With this kinda grades still want to work??! Go study and revise lah!!"... causing me to not know wat to do at tat time... ARGH...

haha... long time no blog...
got A LOT A LOT to say... ;P
don't know where to start...

o.. i know..

ARGH!!!... I FINALLY GOT MY MONITOR BACK!!!...
=.=" i know this is gonna sound ridiculous...
my mom took my LCD computer monitor away during my mid-term exam in hope that i would pay attention on my revision...
but... OFCOURSE I WOULD REVISE!.. i mean.. who in the world would be so idiotic to not study during their exams? (idiots excluded :P)
and now.. she wants to put her BIOS password back on... T.T hope i will be able to talk her to not doing so... :P
now i feel i like i left out on so much...
gotto catch up... :P

BLEACH!!!.. gotto go download the latest!!... XP

ok.. so.. anyway...

on the last day of the exams...
had a fun time with FRIENDS... XP
went to Time Square.. watched MI3...
it was DAMN COOL!... very thrilling... i was literally kept at the edge of my seat.. and the jokes plus humour were all put in at the most intense moments... really a nerve breaker... :P

then after the movie...
went to MABA indoor b.ball court to watch our school team play in the finals against SM Confucious...
at first, we were leading with 12 points..
then... they caught up... with their RIDICULOUSLY ACCURATE 3 pointers...
the pressure built up... me and my friends and other chong hwa supporters were shouting our voice boxes out because we had around 20 people only while there were like 200 Confucious supporters.... =.="
then... just 3 seconds before the end of the whole game...
we were leading 59 to 56....
they passed the ball... the clock started counting down from 3 seconds...
a Confucious player ran pass the half court line...
glanced at the clock and just shot!... to the AMAZEMENT of every in the court.. HE SCORED A 3 POINTER FROM THERE!!!... the supporters ROARED in excitement...
me and my other friends' jaws nearly dropped to the floor...
the Confucious players rejoiced and jumped around...

then came the overtime...
we lost...
lost 12 points... i don't know why...
but it seems our players submitted to the ENORMOUS pressure that was building around them...
haih... i really don't know wat to say... just.. disappointed...

but... anyway... they did well... i have nothing to say about that... XP

then... after all that... i had to go back to my dad's office to help with his computer... =.=" haih... tiring... eventually i slept there a lil while while Mister Sha (XP) helped my dad with downloading drivers... =.="
only reached home around 11pm...
