Welcome to the Brotherhood

Moved

2008-12-20T22:02:00.003+08:00

This is an official announcement. The class blog has been permanently moved to Facebook. You can do a search for the group Fraternitas 5A '06 in Facebook if I haven't invited you in it.

It has been a good two years, but we must move on with the times. Facebook is the new social networking site, and until a better one comes up, for the foreseeable future, all events (actually just the class gathering each December) will be announced via the Facebook group.

Thank you for your continued support of this site.

Reunion?

2008-11-30T23:12:00.001+08:00

Hey everyone.

It's been a while, to say the least.

Anyway, it's the end of the year - December is here babes. Christmas is round the corner, blahblahblah..

I'm just hoping that there could be a SECOND reunion. You know, like 5A 2006 meet up again. LOL

Attention all Brothers, there will be NO gathering, repeat, NO gathering this July. Due to unforeseen circumstances, any pending suggestions to a July class gathering has been cancelled. There will be none without my explicit permission.

On a brighter note, the year-end gathering will still be held, but details are in the works. Stay tuned starting December regarding the year-end gathering.

Wassup guys?! Hey there!

It's been a while since I last post here and also since a full post, not birthday post. Thanks fraternitas5a.blogspot.com for the birthday wish.

Anyway.. Cut the crap. I've made modification to our experiment site and now the codes are XHTML. Now, I'm not really good in XHTML but I found editing the template is easier as you can edit it through the layout option. All editing is done under the Page Element tab and not Edit HTML so it is really easier. So, I'll just put in some important codes in there first and let you all decide, aight mate?

UTP

2008-05-08T03:00:00.005+08:00

I have no idea how long it's been since I last posted something in here. Since it's study week for me, and exams are merely days away, I'll make this fast.

Here are some photos I took a few months ago, to show y'all one of the "lecture" halls that UTP has to offer. Just so happened on that day, class was cancelled and I was there. So I took the chance to snap a few photos.

CAD stands for Computer-Aided Design. Here is where I go for the subject Mechanical Engineering Design I (MED I). Basically it's like Lukisan Kejuruteraan, if any of you know what that is all about.
We learn how to do technical drawings - first with pencil and paper, then later with software.
(There's another CAD Theatre next door actually, C5.)

As you can see... Computers!
In the very front of class, is the super-cool LCD screen(?).
I don't know what the screen exactly is, because it's like TV. I mean, it's not like an OHP projector. The projector is behind the screen. Uber cool stuff.

A shot from the front of C4.

Another view of the computers.

We once had some sketching exercises. Here are some of the blocks we used for practice.

After some thought, I've decided to spend a bit more time on the post. Here are some more photos.

My fellow Mechanical Engineering student, Marwan Khatab from Egypt.

Typical condition of every class.
Sleepy, bored, I-have-no-clue-what-he's-saying faces.
L-R: Helder (Mozambique), Mar Vin, Arthit, Kuo Chun.

The lecture halls are really comfortable for sleeping and resting too.

Javier! Wake up wake up! POP QUIZ!!!

Okay okay cukup. 3.30am now. I gotta wake at 10.00am to go study at library. Oh by the way, during exam season, library opens until midnight, so I stay in the library almost all day and all night. So... GTG!

Just so everyone knows, there might be a class gathering sometime during June, or July. Don't worry, I'm not shunting December's celebration to those months; it's to accommodate brothers who can't be around during December, and since they're back around that period, so mid-year it is. Details are still in the works, since it's still too early (and typical last-minute attitude).

Will keep y'all posted on it. Definitely NOT going to be at The Living Room anymore.

Apology

2008-01-21T17:48:00.000+08:00

This is a sorry note.

Hey guys!

Now, I really have to apologize for delaying the change of our blogskin. Seems like it's rather more troublesome than I thought cause I have to change some of the codes to new codes that fits the template which is in XHTML if I'm not mistaken.

So, I don't think the skin will be changed anytime soon unless someone would help me out here. If there's no one, it's ok. I just need more time and let's just hope it will definitely be done within this month or next month or maybe latest by March.

I'm really sorry guys...

The Misplaced Door

2008-01-14T19:38:00.000+08:00

As you all know, Kuching is now home to its very own KL-style shopping mall, tHe Spring. If you haven't been there, then you either know KL's much much better, or you don't go out very often.

Anyway, today, a few of us discovered an interior defect in the building: a door that serves no purpose whatsoever.

If you guys wanna know where this door is, it's just right outside Factory Outlet Shop on the 1st floor. It's basically a door connected to one side of the wall, but it ends there. Apparently there's a sliding wall like the ones you see on shops that slide down from the ceiling, but why put one sliding wall there and not anywhere else in the mall? Probably an oversight by the powers-that-be.

First Birthday of '08

2008-01-11T09:47:00.000+08:00

The honour goes not to the oldest in the Brotherhood, but rather the first to be born in the year.

HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY ISAAC!!

2007 - A Year in Review

2007-12-31T07:29:00.000+08:00

Let's do this differently than the last two years, owing to the fact that we're no longer together physically as a class.

Thanks to Ivan, Fahri, Jardian, Pan, Javier and Chan for picking up the slack while I was away for NS earlier this year. Great effort guys.

Alright, most of us went to a lot of places all over the whole to further our education. So far, I don't think any of us are working full-time yet. Maybe in 4-6 years we'll get jobs.

Hmm, there isn't much to say about the year, besides personal experiences which I don't doubt that many of us put in our own blogs, accesible through the sidebar.

Right, what I want to say most is this:
I'm glad to say that most of us are still able to come to the Class Gathering on Christmas. I understand that some of us had our own family gatherings and were unable to attend, but it's alright. This year's gathering was somewhat last-minute, so there wasn't much time to plan it. However, a number of us suggested that we do this EVERY year. And I am proud to say we'll give that a shot. It's probably the only time we can all be able to gather together at some restaurant and talk and laugh like we're back in class (And probably more lame ikan bilis jokes from Isaac).

So, the tentative idea is to have a class gathering every year in December, because that's probably the only time where most of us are back home. Of course it's impossible to put down an exact date to celebrate each year, but I think perhaps the last two weeks of December would be fine. Keep your eyes peeled every December in the class blog for dinner updates. It's unfortunately probably the only time that the class blog is actually active, but I guess it's better than being dead. Oh, and I'll put up the usual Status Updates twice or thrice a year. Check the class blog every December every year, alright?

It's been a hectic year for all of us, I suppose, what with getting used to Form 6 and College life. But I think we've all got our own experiences this year that made us much better. Here's to a better new year; a year of opportunities and good health.

As Ivan always says, we're Brothers 4 Life.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

2008!!!

2007-12-31T00:33:00.000+08:00

Hey guys! It's your boy Ivan here!

Anyway... Since we're ushering the New Year, why not new image for our blog too? I've found a nice blogskin and I'd like to know who many of you would like it as our blogskin. So, guys, pay a visit to our experiment site. I've revived the link to the Experiment site so you can click on it. It's somewhere in the link box.

Chow to the cincau!! XD

5A '06 Christmas/Class Gathering

2007-12-26T08:47:00.000+08:00

After a year of going our own separate ways, we managed to gather together on Christmas Day to meet up and regain a little of that feeling of being in 5A again. It took a lot of effort, but the results were quite good. We met up at The Living Room at 7:30pm, with a total of 17 people turning up. Wish the rest could be there, but we know some of you had to go back to kampung, or had family dinners, or just couldn't be contacted. Maybe next year. Yeah, we should have this every year.

Before we move on to the pictures, I'd like to give my Special Thanks to the following for turning up, because it wouldn't be possible for the night to happen without you guys:
Isaac Lawai
Chan Kok Ann
Kelvin Fong
Aaron Goh
Marcus Yu
Mohd. Fahri
Matthew Ting
Ivan Marland
Richard Liaw
David Ling
Alfarouq
Javier Teo
Abdul Aziz
Haziq Shahren
Philip Phang
Jardian Tay

Right, pictures time. Honestly we didn't take much, because we were all busy laughing at Isaac's ("L-A-M-E!" - Ivan M.) ikan bilis jokes, or busy catching up with old buddies.

Happy time!

Group shot

Another group shot

Very nice!

Right, after that we had a little sticky situation with the bills where we had to deal with a mystery dish that nobody ordered. It didn't take too long before the matter was settled amicably, and we did not pay for that mystery dish. That done, we went our separate ways again, though a majority of us went to Gizmo Gamers(?) at Jalan Song and played a round of DotA until midnight. After that, we all went home, and it was a good night. We should do this again next year, hopefully with more people back home.

Seasons Greetings

2007-12-25T07:28:00.000+08:00

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!

Don't forget tonight's class gathering at The Living Room at 7:30pm. See y'all there tonight!!

Cameras are strongly recommended.

my life in Auckland,New Zealand

2007-12-17T16:05:00.000+08:00

Hi everyone.

In a previous post,Shaun was asking me to describe a bit on my life in Auckland,New Zealand.Well,it's a really long story,but I'll cut it short to avoid boredome.

I'm not going to lie,I do enjoy studying in Auckland,but I'm not all excited about it.I do not know the specific reasons for that.I think maybe Auckland wasn't my choice to study in.I was actually hoping for Christchurch.However,only University of Auckland has my prefered course but not Christchurch.So,since that's the case,I have to study in Auckland.Secondly,maybe it's because of my college.I don't really like my college because there's some sort of bias treated to certain students which makes me even lost interest to study in Auckland.Thirdly,the cost of living in Auckland is very high because it's a big city.

However,those can be considered my 'downs' in my life.If there's downs,there must be up.I made with really nice friends there.We're really close like siblings.Besides that,teachers in my college were really nice.Too bad the non academic stuff wasn't as friendly as what they do during the first few weeks of college.

I stayed in a student apartment for the year.It's 3 times bigger than your house storeroom.It's just basically a room of my own provided with basic facilities (desk,chair,study lamp,bed,cupboard,heater).I shared kitchen and toilet with my flatmate.So,basically only 2 person in an apartment with 2 separated rooms.

I've met some SJS seniors and a St3 girl there.Hehehe....Those SJS seniors are Roger Bobson,who's under JPA studying mechanical engineering and Viveon Tan,who's under Petronas studying chemical engineering.Who's that st3 girl?..hahaha....It's Abigail Yong.I met her only once throughout the year.I went to Pakuranga to pay her a visit and she brought me to her church to have some fun and I had.HAhaha....thank you Abby for that time.I really appreciate it.

I get lonely and homesick at times.Well,that's pretty natural because it's my first time leaving my family and friends for a long time in a far place.Thanks to the latest technology,I'm able to communicate with them easy and fast.However,internet is quite pricey at NZ but electricity is super cheap.

What do I eat normally?Well,I usually eat 3 meals per day.Sometimes I just eat 2 by skipping lunch.I only eat an apple for lunch for the past few days before the finals are over.Well,an apple a day keeps the doctor away. =P

How's my college timetable?Well,I go to college at 8.30am until 4.30pm.Sometimes I go to college a bit late like 9.40am.From the very last term,my timetable has changed and I usually end at 3.15pm.Monday's the best.Go to college at 8.30am and ends at 10.50am.After that,I can go back!...ahhahaha....I walk to school everyday.If I'm in a hurry or lazy,I'll use the bus.Hehehe...

What do I normally do during my free time?Well,you all won't be believing me when I say it,but it's true.Only 4 things...laptop,sleep,study or walk around the city.I don't watch TV and listen to radio for months because my apartment doesn't provide such facility.Well,there's a TV room down at the ground floor,but it's always been locked up....how am I going to watch movie like that?...doohh!!...

Ok.I think that's basically my life in Auckland for my foundation year.Depressing life eh?...hahahah....well,that's what i did and I survived!...hehehe...ah well,that's all from me now.See you and take care...if yoy have any further questions or advice or suggestions,do not hesitate to ask.Thank you.

From,
Chan Kok Ann ( Kelvin )

Second Last Birthday...

2007-11-30T14:31:00.000+08:00

..of the year. Can you believe that? Seems like not so long ago we finished our SPM papers, went to NS, took part-time jobs, got our SPM results, headed off to Form 6 or college/university and plenty more. But I'll touch on that sometime at the end of next month. Nostalgia's got to wait.

HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY CAVAN!!

Status Update

2007-11-25T22:04:00.000+08:00

And now, for something completely different:

It's high time I did another update on the whereabouts of our Brothers. Perhaps when Chan returns, he can give us his opinion on New Zealand. Plus it beats having a string of Birthday Shoutouts, which is getting really monotonous =(

Understandably, keeping track of 40+ guys isn't going to be error-free. I welcome all changes and any error is sincerely regretted.

PS: It'd might be nice to organize a little get-together, maybe sometime near New Year's Eve, or the last week of December, for anyone of us who are back home in good ol' Kuching.

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY IKHWAN!!

Sorry it's so short, I'm as busy as all of you, lately. But not too busy to forget the Birthday Boys' List!

A Change..

2007-08-25T16:45:00.000+08:00

I've made a change to the song sidebar and put up a temporary song....

For now only.. The other songs in the poll are unavailable on the site I was looking on. I think it's better we use more recent songs instead really old songs unless you guys have a site where the songs are still there and can be heard.

Love,

Ivan!! (hahahah!! GAY!!!)

Birthday!

2007-08-20T07:22:00.000+08:00

Time for another birthday shoutout. This time it's...

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY SYAZWAN (a.k.a. Boss)

By the way, I'm thinking of putting up a post about the SJS Alumni Dinner. Some pics would be nice. I'm trying to get the ones my bro took, but they're mostly about the event and less about us, so, any of you guys have pictures?

Oh, and another of us leaves for a bright future.

Farewell Jia Wern. Do remember your brothers back here, and wherever they are in the world. Those of us at home will have another one to miss. Never forget the class blog; never forget The Brotherhood, because even if I did create it with the help of others, the idea was ultimately yours. Take care, and all the best in the U.S. of A.!

i'm back!!!

2007-08-16T12:48:00.000+08:00

hey u guys!!! just wanna drop by and update y'all how a bro is doing....

lets see, KML(Labuan Matriculation Collage).. Huhu... Plenty dissatisfactions but much more lessons learnt...the place, KML, to start with is nice from the out side.. But terrible on the inside!!! So many errors and broken accessories... Lecture halls sux; lausy chairs which tables can't even hold up your book without sliding down again, LCD always down, mic seldom works and the aircond malfunctions occasionally.. Hmmm... Our dorms sux; we have sockets which don't work, bathroom with no water, toilet cubicals without doors plus corridor and bathroom lights that don't work... Haiyo.... Our lecturers sux; we have fresh graduates who don't have a clue what they're doing teaching, English teachers who don't speak the language and mean and rude lecturers... Nuts man!!! But we're holding on.. No worries
the group of us(the heartless Joshua parit baru, Jemo the lemo-dumb-retard, Aaron perky nipples and me!!!) Are trying to have our own fun despite of all these dissatisfactions.. And we are!! We're doing a good job at having a good time! We meet everyday either in my room or Joshua’s to just hang out.. We brain storm the wildest ideas and jokes... 'We laugh so much that we're getting abs!'- I quote Jem.. 'It seriously helps!'- he adds... Hehe... We have these special days of the week, for me at least

Monday - take it easy day(first day of the week ba)
Tuesday - lecture day(all my classes that day are in the lecture hall)
Wednesday - chem and maths day(only have those 2 subjects the whole day)
Thursday - die day(I have both lecture and tutorial for all 3 subjects!)
Friday - TGIF(thank god its Friday-talk crap day-no work)
Saturday - DotA day
Sunday – God’s holy-day/'holiday'

Lately we had our UPS(mid term exam) ]gee so many abbreviations]... It was okay la.. I mean we only have to focus on 4 subjects.. English, maths chem and physics.. So guess wad I got? Ah u guess urself la...

Alright la... Now I’m back for the holidays and I can't wait to see you!!!! Hahahahah God bless and enjoy the hols k?! Chaoz..

p.s. haha yes u might have guessed it i took this from my blog in friendster.. hope u guys don't mind.. me lazy hahahah...hope to see u soon!!! God bless!!!!

Another Birthday

2007-08-14T10:56:00.000+08:00

Hot on the heels of Jonathan's birthday, another one of the Brotherhood turns 18 today!

Otherwise known as 'Sotong', here's your shout-out:

HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY GERALD!!

Hmm...?

2007-08-11T01:36:00.001+08:00

Just testing....

I put in a song from a different site.

Now it's working, anyone got suggestion? Maybe I'll use your song instead of voting... XD

Oh, new poll! VOTE!!!

Birthday!

2007-08-10T13:33:00.000+08:00

After a long period between birthdays, here's the first one for the month, and whose honour is it?

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY JONATHAN!!

"Legal baby!", in his words.

Birthday

2007-08-10T12:49:00.000+08:00

Today someone officially turned 18 years old.Let me give you a brief description about this guy.He wrote something ( comments in my friendster ) like :

"Fuuuyy...the guy posing on the table in Miss Mah and Puan Voon's class very handsome man"

Ish,praise himself only.Ah well,this guy is almost to perfection.He's smart,plays variety of musical instruments and sports , sociable, good looking and a spongebob squarepants big fan.Who else am I talking about besides the guy who sat in front of me in 5A 2006? It's JONATHAN INGGIT'S birthday!...A year older is a year wiser!All the best to you in your future undertakings!....

CHEERS!!!

Update!!

2007-08-08T23:02:00.000+08:00

Oh hey guys! Just a little update from your friendly airport Starbucks friend.. XD

Guys who are going to the 125th School Anniversary, please pay up to me as soon as possible. I need to pass the money to Norman for our table.

And...

A small update on the Links section of our blog. Go and find Engrish.Com... It's nice and I got it from Norman's site...

That's all for now.. Chowz!

New Month

2007-08-01T08:53:00.000+08:00

Hey guys, it's a new month, and the start of the latter half of the year. Doesn't time fly? Anyway, here's the results of the monthly song genre from last month's poll:

Rock - 2 votes
Emo - 2 votes
Boybands - 5 votes
Hip-hop/Rap - 1 vote
Trance/Techno - 3 votes

Thus, our song theme for August is 'Boybands'. Bring on the cheesiness.

Also, song recommendations and next month's genre are highly welcome.

Belated Milestone

2007-07-23T18:58:00.000+08:00

Hey guys, are y'all doing fine? Just to inform all of you that we've hit 500 posts a few weeks back, but I only noticed it today. Boy, we've come a long way....

c. August 2005
-The Brotherhood was conceptualized and founded.

c. October 2005
-Membership swells, class awareness of the blog is increased

August 2006
-1st Anniversary!

That was two years back, guys. Two years! Not much I suppose in comparison to other blogs, but this is a group effort, so I guess that counts for something. I really hope we can come back to this same URL ten, maybe twenty years down the road. You don't want to forget your roots, do you? Keep reading this blog, or better yet, post something in it. Maybe point out whimsical things like a new hangout place(Starbucks at 'poikeeteo').

Reminders: Ivan's looking for a couple more guys to chip in for the SJS Annual Dinner thing. 3 more, if I recall correctly. Inform Ivan if you're interested. It's on the 18th August, Saturday night, Crown Plaza(?).

Oh, a bit of outdated news: Last week our school was gazetted as one of Sarawak's Historic Buildings. Neatness! Of course, so was St. Thomas', but one of the two ain't too bad.

Birthday!

2007-07-09T21:10:00.000+08:00

Mad props to Ivan for plugging in some music to the blog, and to everyone else who indirectly supported via voting and suggestions. Keep up the good work. Personally I'm hoping next month's theme would be Boybands, since we're already getting cheesy with Country.

And here's the only birthday shoutout for July:

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY ALFAROUQ!!

birthday brother

2007-07-09T14:35:00.000+08:00

Hahaha...it's Alfarouq bin Abdul Rahaman Pozan.He's 18 today!.A year older is a year wiser.May this year be an incredible year for you!

New songs...

2007-07-05T21:21:00.000+08:00

Aight boys!

Time to give suggestions for next week's song. I can't use the other songs in the poll cause not many voted for them so let's get new songs..

Please, do suggest...

Blog's own E-mail

2007-06-27T19:17:00.000+08:00

Hey guys...

I had to do this cause it's causing problems if we need to get something for our blog. From now on, our class blog has it's own e-mail address. We all can log into the e-mail address but first, you have to send an e-mail containing your name to the e-mail address. So in the future, we can just apply ads or anything for the blog using that e-mail address.

I need you to send an e-mail to fraternitas5a@hotmail.com. I will send you the password as a reply..

Please do this A.S.A.P

July theme - Country

2007-06-26T20:44:00.000+08:00

Heya! Well,since July is coming,Ivan and I suggested July's theme will be country songs.Hope everyone's ok with it.

Here are some of listed country songs.The top 5 will be in the poll on Friday.If you have any other songs,do not hesitate to add in to this post.Thanks!

Martina McBride - A broken wing
Carrie Underwood - Jesus take the wheel
Rascal Flatts - God blessed the broken road
Carrie Underwood - Don't forget to remember me
Chris Richardson - Mayberry ( originally from Rascal Flatts)

Suggestion and Notice

2007-06-24T20:41:00.000+08:00

Now guys, for your information, I like AhChan's idea for the songs. But I have another suggestion..

How about get 5 songs, then vote. After that, the song with the most votes would be played first for that week. After 2 days, the song second on the list would be played and so on.. Simple? Yeah! Good? Absolutely.. XD

Anyway... Just a suggestion. Anyway, there's an e-mail in your inbox to find. It's about St. Joseph's 125 Years Anniversary Celebration Dinner. The e-mail is sent by Norman so do take notice. I'm planning to go and I hope maybe a few of your guys would go too so that we can go in a gang and have a table to ourselves.

suggestions ( themes and song selection)

2007-06-24T16:04:00.000+08:00

Heya!

Well,it's been a while since the last time I've post something in the class blog.Most of the time was spent in the saybox.OK,nevermind that.I would like to give some suggestion on the theme and song selection ( if that's ok because this may be a little bit complicated )

Number of songs are approximately 5 .
Songs suggested must follow according to the monthly theme.Eg,country month and only country songs are allowed to post within that month.
To prevent boredome,songs may be changed.It's up to you whether you want to change the song everyday but I suggest the winner song of the week should be played within 1 week
What do I mean in solution 3?For example, you made a poll this week(week A) and on Saturday,you play the winner song for that week(week A) on next week (Week B).On Sunday,we can either suggest more songs or you can stick with the 5 songs suggested in week A for the whole month.Hope you understand.AHahhaha...

Well,this is just my suggestion.I'll list down the pros and cons.

PROS
Boredome may be avoided and this could make the class blog "sound alive".

CONS
Time may be wasted.

However,you do not have to worry on song suggestion as most of us are quite good in it ( but depends on what song has been suggested..heehhe).Err...if that's the problem,why not we just post some songs on the day before we make the new pool,which is on every Friday?Everyone gets to put their suggested song and some of us will deliberate.Hahaha....(ok..this sounds a lot more complicated now).

This is just my suggestion.Do write in your comments.Thanks!

Yippee!!

2007-06-23T23:23:00.000+08:00

The template is fixed! :P

I added a link to Jia Wern's blog, and it worked!

Now...

Where's the music? :)

Blog rating?

2007-06-23T22:12:00.000+08:00

Wow! That's our blog rating...

Requesting Permission

2007-06-23T14:25:00.001+08:00

I'm just requesting permission to take off the Google Ads cause with them there, our template cannot be changed. The Google Ad is outdated and other than David, no one else could access the AdSense account.

So, it's either a the new HTML codes of the AdSense or we have to take it off...

ASAP! URGENT!

once a brother,always a brother

2007-06-22T10:37:00.000+08:00

hey you guys!! yes its ISaac here, if u still remember... you don't? ynoe the guy who winked at Mdm Kang? and the one who literately challenged Ms Michelle? now you remember? saxophone player? hais... look up the skool mag... isaac lawai langat's the name

so i'm back here to give you guys a little update on how 3 of our great brothers are doing here in Labuan. before that, i would like to apologize for not contributing to the blog even before leaving kuching. guess i was really occupied. so ya. sowee!!!!

jeremy, hafiz, Nur Ikhwan and i have been doing swell in KML(Kolej Matrikulasi Labuan). we've really stuck close to each other, well me Jemo and i la... hafiz has his own cirles of Josephians and ihkwan is enjoying his new companies. we're doing fine physically and mentally. emotionally, there are the ups and downs. but we're looking up for each other as promised!

a few complains and stories tho... for one, my physics lecturer sucks!!! i mean BIG time he sux... he's a fresh graduate form UiTM and i mean really fresh!! he knows NUTs bout teaching!! he spends 1 whole hour standing in front of us making a fool of himself. yes yes he's avoiding the tension, but he's not doing his job as a lecturer... he just doesn't have what it takes to be a matriculation lecturer.. they should have post him to a secondary school 1st of sth ynoe.. get his experience... okay okay he's not dumb.. he has a degree but thet doesn't make him a good teacher! yikes.. i mean he can't even read the slides he prepared! sigh... he once spent a whole hour explaining to us wad projectile motion is..

as for the food, the prices here are reasonable. 3 bucks for a meal is okay. but some how we still blow holes in our pockets haha... outside food la... but in here the price is okay.. however, not nice! the vege tastes rotten most of the time, the meat doesn't taste fresh and the tauhu tastes sour.. blueks! yucky man... i miss mum's cooking..

we really envy the form 6 students now... well at least i do.. they get to work in the comfort of home, get good teachers, study better, more practical, and cheaper! ish i mean we were talking to an form 6 student the other day, he asked,"so where are you guys now in physics?"
"projectile motion. eh, cool man."
"heh, you guys have x and y axis. i have z axis too!!!!"(our faces turned red in fury)

okay i have to go now, they're chasing me out form the library.. talk about independence man!
i hope this insight bout us did some good to you all. or at least gave u a good laugh la.

bye now.. God Bless you all...

Suggestion

2007-06-19T21:48:00.000+08:00

So, what say you?
