anyway anyone's read colinandkero.blogspot.com?

hey pple

hello hello hello

first and foremost, cheers are in order

a) because rudy lee has postponed the ILP due dates so hip hip hooray for that :)

b) for Chern Wei. hahaha yay 7D owns we have a vice pres :) dont be disappointed i think now every cloud has a silver lining. i guess some things were not meant to be and maybe things will turn out for the better yarh...

i think the 8 qualities thing is dead funny and cute lol its v. fun reading what our classmates want in their future partners...haha i guess in a way it sort of reflects their personality as well right? What we want very much hints at our own character and some times when we think we're examining others, we're sorta thrusting ourselves out to be examined too. ok nvm im starting to make us sound like onion cells under a light microscope. something to think abt though...i mean all these lists...haha someday when we find someone i think it's v doubtful that they'll fulfill all the criteria listed. and i dont think we're exactly going to be ticking a checklist and sorting out people into 'accepted' and 'rejected' piles (the prospect is rather fetching lol) for all we know the person could turn out to be completely and utterly different from whatever we wanted/expected, like a complete antithesis of sorts, but yet when you click you just click i guess.

for other things you can aim for what you want, and if you think it's not enough, you can go hey, dont settle for it. (ya wen has brainwashed me lol) but i guess with people it's different. Even with friends or family, we dont consciously think, hey this guy isn't stimulating my mind with intellectual conversation that intensifies my neuron connections so therefore he's immediately off my list as an acceptable friend/family member. same with partners i suppose. haha of course there are some things everybody knows they will never be able to accept in some pple (i quote: "*mad laughter* level 2 in skill B! you suck! *mad laughter*" or something of a similar nature lol) you get what you get and i guess if that person happens to click and you can accept that he/she is lacking in some ways and more than makes up for it in others, and you adore the person for it anyway without complaint, i guess thats the beauty of human relationships:) any thoughts on the subject?

anyway, going out on saturday night? celebrate ben's birthday and chern wei's appointment :) will confirm again.

8 qualities

Hmm got tagged by kai herng. and since I promised to do after Niklas.. or at least he remembers so

1. Independent
Someone who's opinionated and has his own way of doing things. not stubborn, but also isn't easily influenced by what others think cos he knows what he really wants and is willing to go all out to get it=D

2. Committed
I guess this is a lot abt sincerity. and definitely someone who cares abt me.. whom i trust and can count on to pull thru together when things may not be working out

3. Easygoing
Don't sweat the small stuff. Someone who won't get stressed out all the time, cos its terribly irritating and i'm not that patient=/ (imagines boyfriend whining into ear. omg scary)

4. Resilient
Someone who rises to the challenge and doesnt shirk from problems. Who isn’t easily set back and who isn't afraid to try just cos he may not make it thru. gung ho=D

5. Confident
He shdnt be egoistic but neither does he need constant assurance. This is v impt cos in the first place I won't be attracted to someone with an inferiority complex. Can u imagine spending all day saying, "no of course you're not lousy i think you're great i like you a lot". i'll just run away pls

6. Fun
Someone who is spontaneous and adventurous. Exciting!=D Plus, I'm definitely attracted to a guy who can make me laugh! It's not that hard:P

7. Sporty
Cos I like athletic guys!=D And when we are bored we can go play sports together, then he won't say "eh I dunno how to play badminton, tennis, soccer, squash, swim, run, jump or do pull-ups. sorry" erm thats a bit sad and boring

8. Someone I'm comfortable with:)
A guy who accepts me for who I am. Similarly he should be natural... Hopefully someone I can have lots of fun with but also be v serious with with necessary, and whom I can enjoy companionable silence with! (shir li and jane will know, haha)

Ok I'm finally done.. btw I think Kat's post is quite mature haha. Mine is kiddy:P Haha I think I'm just not ready to invest in a serious relationship. maybe in the future!=D

8 qualities thingy

Darn, you should've backed out, then I wouldn't have to do it.. =/

Anyway, for the continued survival of our sad class blog, I will proceed to list a bunch of qualities.. joy. Disclaimer: By reading the following, you hereby agree not to manipulate or warp my statements in any way and use them against me in any way.

1) Smart/intelligent: Since I tend towards being slightly elitist, I wouldn't be able to respect a partner who is approximately or smarter then me. And my ego tends to inflate that amount slightly =/

2) Pretty/cute: Superficial, yeah I know. But looks do matter despite all those 'don't judge a book by it's covers etc', and there probably wouldn't be any initial interest for anything to follow.

3) Nice personality: Unique, nice, blahblah.. fairly standard.

4) Extroverted to some extent: Since I tend to be introverted, I probably wouldn't take the first step. I would also lead a very sad social life if both of us were to be introverted.

5) Able to 'click': Since I suck at starting topics etc, need to have alot of common interests.. (omg, rip-off from kat)

6) Likes me for who I am: Doesn't attempt to change me, etc, since I find it rather annoying. Maybe prolonged exposure will change me naturally, but I'd rather not others force their views on me.

7) Understanding: Though I don't intend to get into anything soon, I forsee alot of commitments etc, and hence she should be able to understand if I don't have time etc.

8) (for the lack of things) Not-poser: Since I despise people who tend to jump on bandwagons, posers who like to follow the masses in doing un-unique things. I find it reflects poorly on their individuality, and a lack of self-esteem.

There, that's it. Now those people that agreed to do after I did can do or something..

The 8 Quality Thing

Okay…didn’t expect such a response on the tagboard…had intended to do it here just for fun, but now I kinda feel like backing out… I’m like, gonna publicise my innermost thoughts and feelings on the class blog?!

Oh well…in the name of fun. And for the sake of keeping the class blog alive. I’ll just hide my face on Monday.

You pple who have been tagged had better type yours here asap!!!! Or beware my wrath. Muahaha…

Would have liked to put down some shallow superficial stuff for my 8 qualities just for laughs, but I’ve put some thought into this, so it might not be as interesting as expected. Nevertheless:

1. It would be preferable for my partner to have the same religion as me, i.e. Christianity. I believe that being a Christian is a lifelong journey, and what’s better than to have a partner who has the same belief as I do. We would be able to grow and learn from each other, and help each other along.

2. I admire people with strong willpower and determination to work towards their end goals. This is a trait that I admire a lot from my dad. However, my partner would also have to be able to deal with failure, as it is through failure that one’s grit is tested and one’s character refined.

3. I would like my partner to be in touch with his emotions, and not be afraid to express his true feelings. Guys tend to be less sentimental and emotive, like my dad, who tends to hide his feelings, and has difficulties expressing his love for his kids sometimes.

4. I would like my partner to be capable of putting those around him first before himself. Humble, patient, unselfish, not egoistic... I think I’m being too demanding haha.

5. I would like my partner not to be too materialistic or too pragmatic, but rather, be easily contented with the simplest things. There would not be a need to get bungalows, cars, multiple degrees and a huge fortune just to find joy and meaning in life.

6. This is very subjective, but my partner is obviously someone whom I can be myself with. There will not be any need for me to put up an act, and force myself to be what I’m not. Words will come easily when we converse. No awkward periods of silence. Can talk about anything and everything. And stuff like that. Don’t know how this is to occur. Perhaps we’ll just… click? =)

7. I would like my partner to be fun loving, have an adventurous spirit, and always be willing to try something new. (I think I’m sounding repetitive. Whoops.)

8. Lastly, I would like my partner to have moral integrity, as it is under adversity that his morals will determine how he reacts and set him apart from the rest.

Guess that wasn’t too bad. Waha. As an afterthought, there can never be a perfect lover who has all these 8 qualities. Even if there was, I think I would still prefer someone who is lacking in one of these. It would give us both room for mutual encouragement and growth. Somehow there is beauty in imperfection.

Yay. Glad to have done my part to spice up the class blog a bit. Let’s continue keep it alive. Whee.

Class outing!!!

Let's have a class outing!

Soccer

I was too tired to post this yesterday.
Soccer was fun(ny). Initially, I much expected myself to just stone there as the guys kicked the ball around. But because the netball court was so small, (but much bigger than the miserable, and er, quite redundant goal post), the ball was always within sight and I witnessed many funny stuff as people tried to interact with the ball. So most of the time, I was squatting down laughing. Funny stuff included:
1. Frequent out-of-court throw-ins :p
2. Chapteh-inspired kicks
3. Alvin's attempted formation of a one-man team :p
4. Ridiculous goal posts
5. Irvin's movie-like defence which prevented a potential goal
6. People laughing together
hahaha.

Just some post to salvage the blog.

Six ways to recognise a dying class blog:

1. People say so on the blog itself.
2. Announcements (of some sort) are made on the blog.
3. Nobody posts anything for several days.
4. Some of our classmates have never posted anything on it.
5. Nothing new on the tagboard for several days.
6. "Huh? What blog?"

The above list is not exhaustive, and not all dying class blogs will have all the above symptoms.

How to "revive" a dying class blog:

1. Call an ambulance and ask for things like oxygen masks, defibrillator and the like.
2. Fine, that was cold. Post something else please.
3. Need I say more? Some people blog more often than me.

Enough said (I think). Just do something.

wahaha..

Just for more laughs

Since everyone is stressed out, here's a joke:

A guy is in a bar with a bunch of his friends. After a while of shooting pool and drinking, he whispers something to his friends. A few minutes later he walks over to the bartender and asks for a shot of tequila. After he takes the shot he says to the bartender,'' I'd like to make a bet with you.'' The bartender replies, ''Sure I'm in a betting mood.'' So the man bets the bartender $1,000 that he can piss in the shot glass placed all the way across the room and fill it up and not spill a drop. The bartender says, ''I'll take that bet.''
So the man walks to the other side of the room and places the shot glass down. He goes back to the bartender and starts pissing. He doesn't even get a drop in. He pisses all over the place. In the bartender's face, all over the barstools and everything. After he was done pissing, the bartender laughed and said, ''You owe me $1,000.'' The man paid the money with a big smile on his face. The bartender asked, ''How come you're so happy?'' The man replied, ''You see those five guys over there by the pool table? I bet them $300 each that I could piss all over your bar and you'd laugh about it.''

Just for laughs...

Class outing

Meh, shall make my required fortnightly post.. or something like that.

Soo, there was a class outing, and for the first time in 4 years did I invite other people over. Mainly because my parents weren't around, which probably won't happen very often. I spent a decent portion of time walking in and out of the house in the pouring rain to guide people in.. Living in an wu lu place has it's cons. The funniest thing was Katrina and me having a communication breakdown, resulting in me thinking she got off at the wrong stop, so she walked back 2 stops in the rain with a file. I walked in the other direction. Adrian came along while we were walking in the wrong way and was being lost at the bus stop. People should follow Jane and take taxi; save me the trouble and the wetness.

We tried to watch Lost in Translation, but since everyone was engaging in random conversations, it resulted in none of us following the plot and becoming very confused. Then we decided to switch to a low-IQ movie, Airplane.

KH seemed to notice the low-IQ jokes faster then the others for some reason. Won't say why. Thanks go to people who brought food, since that means I didn't need to go look for any of my own =p (I still have a packet of popcorn, no idea what to do with it =/)

After that people went to play cards while I went to ferry CM. On the way in, she laughed at Jaime's father for some reason. I think she'll leave a bad impression.

We watched airplane 2 halfway, but the jokes weren't as good this time round, so we decided to go for dinner halfway through. We spent approximately 20 mins making our way to serangoon garden, after I had caught my dog (someone didn't close the gate and I didn't know >.<), and went to eat at a food court. I guess everyone was too hungry and didn't want to walk around first. We saw these interesting stalls next to each other: Soon Huat's pigs organ soup or somethng, and Ah Seng confectionary. Wonder what the connection is ^^

After that, we all went our ways and I went back home. Whoo. And had to clean up the mess the next day =( (Okay, there wasn't really much anyway).

Next time, we can crash someone else's house. *coughcough*

~the pleasant experience~

because i'm so obedient, i followed the advice i got (mostly niklas's - thanks), i had no trouble signin up ^.^ in fact, i was like fastest to sign up for the sabbaticals i chose. wahaha.. n i managed it with only 2 windows, n din contribute to clogging of system. yepz. ~i rock.

n so it was a smooth experience.

only bad part of it? i couldn't log out.. -.-

How to get your dream sabbatical

M1: Kiasu Way

1) On your computer at least an hour before the sign up.
2) Log into IVLE using IE and enter the eApplication. Firefox might not be as compatible.
3) Open 4 windows for your first course and 4 windows for your second course. Open 4 more as backup.
4) Restore your window and arrange them so they stack up according.
5) Select the options for your course and scroll every window down to the submit button.
6) Synchronise your Windows time as well as use one of the backup window's clock, which might become out of sync after a while.
7) Wait.
8) At 10s before the sign up time, hit enter on the first set of windows.
9) At the sign up time, hit enter on the 2nd set of windows.
10) At 5s after the sign up time, hit enter on the 3rd set of windows.
11) Hit enter on the last set at your own discretion.
12) Wait 1 to 1.5 hours for the confirmation.
13) You are now done. Wasn't that easy?

M2: For those who dislike school "camps" with "let's jam" theme

1) Sign in to IVLE around 2 hours after the start time and select your course. Most should not be full.

And don't forget to do repeats for the experiment. There will be one more series of sabbaticals at the end of the year after promotional examination.

And below is the list of class sabbaticals. For those who have yet to sign up for the 2 runs, please hurry.

Sabbats

AHHHHHHHH!
you know i wasted two bloody hours in front of the com yesterday while refreshing the sabats page? i logged on at abt 3.50pm, it was lagging so hard it took me at least five minutes to sign in to IVLE. after which, to go to the eapplications page, it took about 10 aeons, after which there was this thing on top that happily stated
SERVER TIMED OUT or something of the like. ARGH. im assuming everybody went through the same thing as me, so everyone just kept happily refreshing the page, so we happily clogged up the ivle together, and we happily lagged together. yay ok so i sat there for two hours refreshing and refreshing while others also refreshed and refreshed. didnt work for me, if not i wouldnt be so frustrated. anyway, i just gave up then because i felt it only served to make happy pple grumpy. @%^#! when i came home at eleven plus, the ivle server thing was still happily timing out.
then jane saves my life by giving me this link which is absolutely a god-sent (or at least a smart-IT-savvy-student-sent) which helped me sign up for sabbats in like two seconds or so. whoever you are, a million thanks from me:)
niklas i think i should have just listened to u though, and start camping at three. it would save me so much frustration.

Sabbaticals...

Registering Sabbaticals was living hell... The server was sooooo lag that I had only just signed up.

Wasted sooooo much money, wasted sooooo much time. Thank goodness I was doing math tutorial at the same time.

So here's approximately what happened:

8/4/06
Approx. 3.55 pm:
Logged in to IVLE, server was extremely slow but i logged in anyway

Approx. 4.05 pm:
Finally opened the window for e-sabbaticals. Showed server timeout. Dots. Refreshed the window

Approx. 4.10 pm:
Com went to standby. WT... Com got super lag. Pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del multiple times before the computer responded

Approx. 4.20 pm:
Logged in again, clicked "e-Application". Wait, wait, wait.

Approx. 4.30 pm:
"The page cannot be found" (or something like that). WT... Oh, got disconnected (what do u expect from dial-up?). Scolded 4-letter words multiple times (or was it just once?). Actually 4-letter words won't do, but my vocabulary is so limited that i can't think of anything else to say.

Approx. 5 pm:
Got connected and disconnected multiple times. Got pissed off. Shut down the com and completed my math tutorial.

Approx. 7.30 pm:
Tried again. Server timed out again.
Tried again. Server timed out again.
Within this period of time, i completed a minesweeper game in approx 300 seconds (actually it's slightly less).
Got pissed off. Logged out, played com games and went to sleep.

9/4/06
Approx 12.45 pm:
Finally signed up for two dumb courses. Server apparently recovered.

Morals of the story:

1. Somebody go upgrade the server.
2. Should have read the class blog earlier (but i doubt it helps).
3. Should have signed up for broadband (doubt it helps either).
4. NOT sign up at 4pm.
5. Save money. End of blog. Thank you. Publsh post. Bye bye.

Ice Skating Run 2

For those who want to go for this course...

Log in then paste this link:
http://www.online.chs.edu.sg/eapp/student/stu_student_v.asp?action=reg&courseid={2C6FB7B3-D48B-4A8F-BA9B-DEBC1E3B072D}

More about Sabbaticals

Registration for sabbaticals is sucha stressful process. I managed to register for iceskating and am now waiting to register for my second one. Congrats to yongzi who managed to register for both already.

Regarding adrian's point of not being able to sign up for two at a time... I have a friend who actually managed to do it. So here's a tip in case we encounter this again:

About an hour (or a time early enough so it doesn't lag) before the registration starts, open TWO windows that show the list of courses. Then select one course in one window and the other course in the other window. Then wait, or camp till the time comes, and click submit on both windows at the same time. Then wait for the successfully registered message to appear and you're done. Yongzi also spammed a lot of windows at the same time but all are signing out for the same course so he had to spend another 1.5 hours getting the second one.

Ok it's been two hours. I can't believe i'm still at the com. The server needs to be revamped to handle heavy traffic. Sian. Bye!

Sabbaticals Registration

Was registering for sabbats, realised that it took so long, ok, so shall post something here...

First, muz condemn the server. So laggy, kept popping error messages...grrr...ok so kept refreshing...then lag, then error again...and the vicious cycle continues... (till dunno wad time...10 pm perhaps?)

And why can't we register both courses at the same time??!! Can only click one button at one time and then muz wait for hell long time to get back to the ERROR page... Imba system...

Worse still when i dun hav a reliable connection in the hostel...my connection screwed YESTERDAY (wad a good time :( ), most prob got struck by lightning...yar....so had to squeeze in hostel com room, where there are only 20 coms for 1200 occupants in the hostel....

So as every minute passed, everyone juz got more pissed and frustrated... Can't believe it, i hav already spent more than 3 hrs for this registration when i completed this post....

Shall continue waiting...

lol...tyz, liangen and me were feeling bored in the library waiting for chem olympiad selection test...so we switched the computer on...and went to http://www.bensing.com

Ok, so it's not exactly a good idea to go to a random webpage with no idea what it contains...but fortunately there was nothing...erm...incriminating...

Ben-Sing Chins


Weird huh? @*&#$*(& is a bensing chin? So we clicked on About the breeders and noticed: Jim & Nancy Bensing...

Nothing to say...but apparently bensing is a surname...and chin-chin is a kind of dog...
