An English professor wrote the words: "A woman without her
man is nothing" on the chalkboard and asked his students to
punctuate it correctly.

All of the males in the class wrote:
"A woman, without her man, is nothing."

All the females in the class wrote:
"A woman: without her, man is nothing."

My fav tracks on Darren Hayes' Spin.

Yeah. I know. The first track sounds like Blink182's piece of shit, but Mr hayes definitely came out with this loooooong before Blink 182 came out with THAT.
_____________________________________________________________
Darren Hayes - "I Miss You"

Gimme a reason
Why I'm feeling so blue
Everytime I close my eyes, all I see is you
Gimme a reason
Why I can't feel my heart
Everytime you leave my side, I just fall apart

And when you're fast asleep, I wonder where you go
Can you tell me, I wanna know

Because I miss you
And this is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on

Gimme a reason
Why I can't concentrate
The world is turning upside down
Spinning round and round
Gimme a reason
Why I now understand
The beauty and simplicity of everything surrounding me

You got a way of spreading magic everywhere
Anywhere I go, I know you're always there
It sounds ridiculous, but when you leave a room
There's a part of me that just wants to follow you too

Because I miss you
And this is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on

It's such a hard life in most of the time
I'm just surviving
That's why I want you to know
In the world where sincerity has lost its meaning
You fill my world with so much hope

And I miss you
This is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on

You know I miss you
And this all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all

You know I miss you
And this is all I wanna do
I know it doesn't sound too cool
But maybe I'm in love with you

You know I miss you
And this all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on

I just miss you
Yeah, it's true
I miss you, baby
And when you're walking out that door
I know I miss you
You make me wanna ask for more
I just miss you
Yeah, it's true
I miss you, baby

dear friend,

Did you know ???



Did you know that when you envy someone, it's because you really like that person?


Did you know that those who appear to be very strong in heart, are real weaklings and most succeptible?

Did you know that those who spend their time protecting others are the ones that really need some one to protect them?

Did you know that the three most difficult things to say are : I love you,Sorry and help me The people who say these are those that actually need them or really feel them, and they are the ones you really need to treasure, because they have said them.


Did you know that people who occupy themselves by keeping others company or helping others are the ones that actually need your company and help?

Did you know that those who dress in red are more confident in themselves?

Did you know that those who dress in yellow are those that enjoy thier beauty?

Did you know that those who dress in black, are those who want to be unnoticed and need your help and understanding?

Did you know that when you help someone, the help is returned in two folds?

Did you know that those who need more of you are those that did not mention it to you?


Did you know that it's easier to say what you feel in writting than saying it to someone in the face?But did you know that it has more value when you say it in the face?

Did you know that what is most difficult for you to say or do is much more valuable than anything that is valuable that you can buy with money?

Did you know that if y ou ask for something in faith, your wishes are granted?

Did you know that you can make your dreams come true, like falling in love, becoming rich, staying healthy, if you ask for it by faith, and if you really knew, you'd be surprised by what you could do.


But don't believe everything I tell you, until you try it for yourself , if you know someone that is in need of something that I mentioned of,and you know that you can help,you'll see that it will be returned in two folds.

Take the following test and determine if you are losing it or are still "with it."

OK, relax, clear your mind and.... begin.


1. What do you put in a toaster?

Answer: "bread." If you said "toast," then give up now and go do
something else. Try not to hurt yourself.
If you said, "bread," go to Question 2.

2. Say "silk" five times. Now spell "silk." What do cows drink?

Answer: Cows drink water. If you said "milk," please do not attempt the next question. Your brain is obviously over stressed and may even overheat. It may be that you need to content yourself with reading something more appropriate, such as Children's World."

If you said "water," proceed to question 3

3. If a red house is made from red bricks, and a blue house is made from blue bricks, and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from?

Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said, "green bricks,"
what the devil are you still doing reading these questions?????

If you said "glass," then go on to Question 4.

4. Twenty years ago, a plane was flying at 20,000 feet over Germany. If you recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into

West Germany and East Germany. Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the engines failed.The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the third engine fails

before he has time to attempt an emergency landing, and the plane crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East Germany and West Germany.Where would you bury the survivors?

. . . in East Germany or West Germany or in "no man's land"?

Answer: You don't, of course, bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING else, you are a real dunce and you must NEVER try to rescue anyone

from a plane crash. Your efforts would not be appreciated

If you said, "Don't bury the survivors," proceed to the next question.


5. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60 of a degree every minute how many
degrees will the hour hand move in one hour?

Answer: One degree. If you said, "360 degrees" or anything other than "one degree," you are to be congratulated on getting this far, but you are obviously out of your league. Turn in your pencil, and exit the room.

Everyone else proceed to the final question.

6. Without using a calculator --
You are driving a bus from London to Milford Haven in Wales.
In London, 17 people get on the bus.
In Reading, six people get off the bus, and nine people get on.
In Swindon, two people get off and four get on.
In Cardiff, 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In Swansea, three people get off and five people get on.
In Carmathen, six people get off and three get on.
You then arrive at Milford Haven.

What was the name of the bus driver?

Answer: Oh, for crying out loud! Don't you remember? It was YOU!!

Now pass this along to all your "friends" and hope they do better then you DID!!

OK. Came back from my grandma's. Seemed to have eaten nothing but durians all day, all night.

Well. Can't be helped at all when durians come dirt cheap at one medium sized durian for RM1.

Nah. That was a few days back.

It's the end of season already. Durians are thinning, if at all. And the most fleshy, tastiest and richest flavours are coming out. Of course the cheapest one are at RM2/durian. Still a bargain, since now they are bigger than most mid-sized durians.

Even the famous-and-uneaten-by-bugs D24 are bloody dirt cheap.

Tells much about the quantity and quality of durians we have in this region.

Went for PW meeting to day. Didn't do much. But still, we have to thank Mdm Sumardi for bringing EVERYTHING back home. Thanks, ya?Met Mun Mun along the way in the library. Now I know who's the fella in the green YJC shirt in her blog.heh heh.

Talking about deja vu, may I re-invent a new term called

"Deja Vuman"?

Yeah. Supposed to have PW meeting today. Been there and done that. Then I went home and had Abby for company on the train. We parted when she said she wanted to buy tickets at Yishun 10.

Though nothing about it.

I headed home and finished some parts of last week's papers. Mum had dinner ready, so I went ahead and finished my share while she packed to go over to my aunts'. Suddenly I just decided to get over with the GP movie, so I went thru the papers again.

Bingo. One show at 6.30pm.

Got a lift from Mum to the cinema. Went to a Slurpee which split over a bit while I was topping it. I've got no tissue at that time(yah RIGHT. Like I carry tissue around like some damn sissy), so I went to the loo to wash off some of the sticky shitty blue stuff. Came out and got a major shock from Abby when she and her bro came out from NOWHERE and into the toilet.

Maybe I was shocked because somebody also got shocked to the extend that she gasped so loudly in MY EAR that that everyone within 5m radius can hear.

Nevermind.

Got into the cinema at 6.30. Exactly.

Rather dark inside, so I concentrated on looking for the seats in the almost flat theatre.(Remind me to tell the world how much I HATED GV Yishun for the infamous lousy-cos-it's-all-flat ground.) Heard some giggling in front when I settled myself down. Yah.

Abby and her bro's right in front of me.

*SLap forehead*

Deja Vuman.

No. We didn't plan to meet up at all before hand.

wat's L.O.V.E..
===============

Message: Message: Let me tell u what LOVE is..

For all you people who say, "I love you" when
you have no clue what love is exactly!!!
Something to ponder upon...

Are your palms sweaty, is your heart racing
and
is your voice caught within your chest?? -It
isn't love, it's LIKE.

You can't keep your eyes or hands off of
her/him -
It isn't love, it's LUST.

Are you proud, and eager to show her/him
off?? -
It isn't love, it's LUCK.

Do you want her because you know she's/he's
there?? -
It isn't love, it's LONELINESS.

Are you with her/him because it's what
everyone
wants??
It isn't love, it?s LOYALTY.

Are you with her because she/he kissed you,
or
held your hand?
It isn't love, it's LOW CONFIDENCE.

Do you stay for her/him confessions of love,
because you don't want to hurt her/him?
It isn't love, it's PITY.

Do you belong to her/him because the sight of
her/him makes your heart skip a beat??
It isn't love, it's INFATUATION.

Do you pardon her faults because you care
about
her/him?
It isn't love, it's FRIENDSHIP.

Do you tell her/him every day she is the only
one you think of?
It isn't love, it's a LIE.

Are you willing to give up all of your favorite
things for her sake?
It isn't love, it's CHARITY.

====================================================================================

Does your heart ache and break when she's
sad?
Then it's LOVE.

Do you cry for her/his pain, even when
she's/he's strong?
Then it's LOVE.

Do her/his eyes see your true heart, and touch
your soul so deeply it hurts?
Then it's LOVE.

Do you stay because a blinding,
incomprehensible
mix of pain and relation pulls you close and
holds you to her/him?
Then it's LOVE.

Do you accept her/his faults because it's a
part
of who she/he is?
Then it's LOVE.

Are you attracted to others, but stay with
her/him faithfully without regret??
Then it's LOVE.

Would you give her/him your heart, your life,
your death??
Then it's LOVE.

Now, if love is painful, and tortures us so, why
do we love? Why is it all we search for in life?
This pain, this agony? Why is it all we long
for?
This torture, this powerful death of self? Why?
The answer is so simple cause it's...LOVE. It
is
such an addictive thing that even people who
are
not having it wish to experience it and share it
with others as well.

Pass this to all your friends so they don't make
the same mistake with their LOVE LIVES!! I
like
the dreams of the future better than the history
of the past...

Love hurts our feeling, but it's also the reason
our soul heal.

Life is really starting to suck.

I've come to a point, where I've reached enlightment for some parts of my computing studies, but another pile of load that's like TEN times the previos comes crashing down.

Deja vu.

It happens every fortnight.

Now that I've come to understand struct, shit like the freaking coursework comes along. Worse still--it's considered in my promos.

Life's not fair.

I'm gonna fail tomorrow's exam(the coursework) cos I've no darn idea how to link all the arrays together. Getting rather technical here.

Anyway. Going to sleep over it.

Nite.

Ok. Life's not that bad today. Didn't do much homework but I felt as if I did alot.

Oh yah. Trigo. How can I forget?? Did a bunch of the first few questions. Quite easy. Simply lurv the proving portion! :p

Ok. Besides this, nothing much really happened.

Again.

I supposed we are going to watch the GP movie tomorrow, after Math tutorial. So troublesome. Why can't Cindy Low aka Cindy Tan make do with some other movies like Deep Impact of Ammagadon or something? Ok. Nevermind that. Gives me another chance to go to the films again. Another chance to rate and criticise the horrible cinemas they have around Singapore.

Oh. Going for Pre-U Sem on Sunday! The much awaited is finally coming! Haha. Socializing skills kick in again!

My last post was on the 19th May. Today's the 1st June. I know. Becca's complaining away that I haven't been writing. Or blogging.

Really sorry.

Life these last 3 weeks made me felt just how f**king bitter it can be. The sweet part just managed to balance it out.

Only just. It's from one source, which is a rather commendable effort. Cos nothing on earth had ever made me feel that way.

Nothing.

Alright.

At first it was the physics tutorials. 4.1 had me nearly dead. Sprawling on the damn floor. Spent gawd-knows-how-many-f**king weeks on it. But in the end, it was worth it. I re-did the whole tutorial, but didn't manage to understand everything. Not that Mr Leong's a bad teacher, but perphaps I'm too lazy.

Mr Charles Goh's lectures had ended this term. Another blow to my ego. I was just starting to enjoy his lectures. Highly interactive. Good job done that he managed a few rather simple but good experiments that he can conduct in LT4. He keeps people on their toes. Best of all, he's like the only teacher who doesn't really know me, but still acknowledges SHAWN as one of his lecture students outside class.

Maths. That test was a huge insult to my intelligence. I know I don't know much, but it wasn't necessary to kill me like that, was it? Maths seems the only subject that I can understand fully as of now lor! Save for Mathematical Induction. People like Zhen Peng who usually flunks those f**king tests, can understand. Evene blokes like Andy who told everyone he knows shit can understand and do. ANd I can't. I should probably not be complaining. You're allowed to slap me now. But jealousy reigns.

PW. Gosh. I wish to reinforce that our group loves the topic that we chosen. Actually--Our group loves the topic THEY had chosen. Our group rocks. Better thing was we had minimal meetings, but rather alot of things done. Best thing was we had Changi. You know what I mean.

"I dunno WATHE HEeeLL....."

"I dunno WHOTHE HEeeLL....."

"I dunno WHERETHE HEeell....."

"I dunno ...etc... HEeell....."

Loads of times he had chances to get his nose broken. Not to mention his sacred manhood. YES. Just over the word that I stated above.

忍

It seems the only thing that can let me survive through this year.

Finally. The one of the 2 thing left on earth that's worth a mention. Bought a new computer. It's working well. Working fast. Rathe stable. and Yes, I managed to download Mandrake 10.0 Offical disks 1 and 2, after leaving the computer on overnight for 2 nights. Could have got me killed by Mom for this. Lucky she was tolerant enough.

Another thing that was worth a mention. Was psychologically down. Depressed. The shit hits the fan. The shit flies everywhere. But I came back, with help. Stonger.

It's alright. The world still needs to go on.

靜 is the policy. For the rest of the year.

Yes. Happiness still came from just one source.
