Ok, i just screwed up my first paper. Heat transfer. What I spent so much time on the last few days, in the end never came out. My all time worst paper in NUS so far. Now just to cross my fingers and hope that I get a decent grade for it.
Still got 2 more to go.
I got a rejection letter yesterday.
Guess I have to bear the consequences of some wrong decisions made during my JC.
But then again, there are better jobs out there than this. There has got to be.
NS is for everyone, NS is a crime,
NS is a must for all, NS waste of time,
Civil Defence and Police, don’t forget Army,
We cannot escape and we don’t wanna go DB!
Listen fellow Singapore, Listen carefully
Want to share something with you, don’t worry it’s free!
I served NS for two years, This is my story
Who is singing out of tune? The name’s Evil Bunny!
Some of them ayam sakit, Some are super on,
Some like to angkat Encik, Some are plain moron,
Mess boy, Provost and Medic, All have taste the whip,
But at the end of the day we’re nothing but conscripts!
Kena tortured day and night: this is BMT,
All your friends working fulltime You have no money
Everybody likes to keng Rub some soap in eyes,
Whack your knees with metal pipe And get MC as prize!
NS is for everyone, NS is a crime,
NS is a must for all, NS waste of time,
Civil Defence and Police Don’t forget Army,
We cannot escape and we don’t wanna go DB!
I tell you two years is no joke Tahan all the way
Grit my teeth and clench my fist They’ll free me one fine day
Difficult to find a job but I’m an optimist
Finally got interview but clash with reservist!
Unemployed for 3 long years Girlfriend dumped me too
Suddenly the news say ‘war’ Expect me fight for you
Listen fellow Singapore Listen carefully
I’m not against NS now Hope you not blind to see
I know of a better way Sign some peace treaty
Cut down on the arrogance Show humility
Lend a hand when they need help Deliver some aid too
God forbid we’ll burn in flames And friends to the rescue!
And who knows they’ll sell us sand Play soccer with Malaysia,
Sell us cheap water Majulah Singapura!
NS is for everyone, NS is a crime,
NS is a must for all, NS waste of time,
Civil Defence and Police Don’t forget Army,
We cannot escape and we Don’t wanna go DB!
La-la-la-la-la... Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee...
Just had my first paper yesterday. quite alright as HR2002 is pretty open-ended. Convinced me that i am more suited to take arts related modules but anyway... Now I'm left with three more which are all next week and the following. Getting in the mood too, just finished one section of heat transfer...
Earlier I attempted to play simul against the three apple laptops in IT Co-op. I now realise that the chess engine had been souped up, with a wider opening book (it's not always 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5 now... or French Defence when I open 1.e4) and I lost all three games :(
I received an email today inviting me to a First Aid seminar in JB organised by SJA Malaysia. It seems that the Superintendent there is actually based in Singapore as he gave a local HP and fax number. Sounds really cool. Too bad it's still within my exam period, and moreover i agreed to conduct lecture for the kids on administration so I got to give it a miss...
Last Saturday I went for SJA's annual banquet (quite a few other NUS/NTU students were there too... tsk tsk...exams leh..) Just catch up a bit with my friends from other zones and met the new TIC of RVHS. Overall quite alright, the food also quite ok (considering the budget).
It occured to me that when we do things sometimes we tend to be taken for granted especially in the context of a voluntary orgnaisation... Worse still some others demand things as though they are automatically entitled to it and the worst thing is, they don't lift a finger to contribute to the organisation at all and expect to be recognised for just 'being there' for the past 5 years.
I leave the preceding statement open to interpretation by my readers. Nevertheless, the focus at the very end is to run the zone's admin properly and also help the cadets in their achievement of the prestigious CPBS awards (and NYAA too.. LOL).
After exams got to get my NYAA booklet and logbook in order, before submitting it up to achieve the pinnacle NYAA award!
One should not be in a hurry for the right one will come when the time is right.
Last night we had the finals for 'Talanto', the final year special programme. Each of the performances was very well rehearsed and
Special mention to "Mother Shooter" and "Transformers"... i was especially entertained by "Transformers" as in every sense of the word they 'transformed' from a 'childhood' dance to a 'modern' dance like what we know. well done! (:
Ok, while out with dad today i bumped into a few hall ppl... we were
in the car and they were crossing the road. Haha. Well, scandalous
sia. I'll just say that a certain final year is closer to reaching
his goal :|
Thanks to all my friends for their concern and kind words recently. I really appreciate it.
Week 10 looms. 5 more weeks to the exams. Once again, for the fifth time (boy do i feel old), the time has come to stop slacking and start studying.. again.
(slacking? or rather busy with other stuff.. haiz... time management)
Our pet cat, Tomok which we gave up for adoption a while ago, passed away on 8 October 2007 aged 12 months. He will be sorely missed.
