The Worst Ever!

I did not sleep ytd at all so just i could chiong my Fundamental Of Flight. Went to mac to chiong theory and calculations part which took me from 12am - 7am. Damages count up to 3 sticks of M, 4 cans of Dark blue Redbull, 1 flat white from Mac cafe and 1 box of nuggets. And of course my beauty sleep! It gone down to waste.

FUCK SHIT!

Doing tutorial and past years paper are redundant. It came out but differently, totally! This is bullshit why test us on stuffs which we are not taught much on. And something which we have no example to practice on! This is thrashed! Totally!

it took me an average of 20min to do a Section C question and at most 50min to finish whole of section C (40marks). It bloody took me 1hr,40min and i can't get the figure and values. which leaves me 20min to do 20MCQ and 5 short quesions.

I got real ridiculous answer, for those who know what LIFT/DRAG ratio is, having a value of 10-15 is like the best or the max any aerofoil can go, but i got 77 which is totally ridiculous. Landing distance for this particular aircraft is said to have a landing distance of 403m and guess at i got 2m. SMLJ!!!

I was conned by 3 men today. First the exam by garnesh, second Nelson, Third Melvin.

Nelson conned me and melvin to chinatown to eat 'yong tau hu' then he go home after that. leaving mel and me clueless about going where to study cause we are at chinatown. We end up going to plaza singapura, then SMU, then sit at a random bus stop, calling random ppl to ask for random locations to go to. Finally took a random bus which goes to Bedok.

On the journey looking around for places to study but can't find any and so end up all the way at bedok. He say to bring me to a cooling void deck to study, all the void deck near the station taken up so had to walk all the way in.

By the time we reach there, 4pm plus. totally shagged to study. End up leaving the place at 5 and go home. My bag today wears at least 7kg - 10kg. carrying it around like some mad guy, no wonder i can't grow taller.

"KNNBCCB NI MA QUEY TAO"

Germans get first nudist-only hotel

The first nudist-only hotel is set to open in Germany's Black Forest.

By Allan Hall in Berlin
Last Updated: 8:34PM BST 31 Mar 2009

Guests will be required to leave their clothes at reception and must be naked at all times when on the premises – "or they will be required to leave".

"We hope to open as soon as possible," Silvia Probsthain, a member of staff at the planned Hotel Rosengarten.

"It will be the first comprehensively nudist hotel in Germany."

The rules state that all guests must put towels on chairs and loungers before using them, that there be no sexual harassment and that all sexual activity in "commonly accessible rooms" is strictly forbidden.

The hotel is being built in Freudenstadt, which translates into "Town of Joys". Freudenstadt's tourism director Michael Krause said: "I'm in two minds. It's always good if a new hotel is set up but I'd prefer a normal hotel concept."

Nude hiking is proving increasingly popular in Germany and two villages in the central Harz mountain range plan to mark special forest hiking routes for naked ramblers.

The practice is frowned on in neighbouring Switzerland, however, where authorities plan to fine such behaviour.

There are similar hotels catering for nudists in Scandinavia, Croatia and the south of France.

Joke To Relieve Some Tension

A young man married a beautiful woman who had previously divorced 10 husbands. On their wedding night, she told her new husband to "Please be gentle; I'm still a virgin".

"What?" said the puzzled groom. "How can that be if you've been married ten times.?"

"Well, husband#1 was a Sales Representative; he kept telling me how great it was going to be.

"Husband # 2 was in Software Services; he was never really sure how it was suppose to function; but he said he'd look into it and get back with me.

"Husband # 3 was from Field Services; he said that everything checked out diagnostically but he just couldn't get the system up.

"Husband # 4 was in Telemarketing; even though he knew he had the order, he didn't know when he would be able to deliver.

"Husband # 5 was an Engineer, he understood the basic process but he wanted three years to research, implement, and design a new state of the-art method.

"Husband #6 was from Administration; he thought he knew how but he wasn't sure whether it was his job or not.

"Husband # 7 was in Marketing; although he had a product, he was never sure how to position it.

"Husband # 8 was a Psychiatrist; all he did was talk about it.

"Husband # 9 was a Gynecologist; all he did was look at it.

"Husband # 10 was a Stamp Collector; all he ever did was........ God I miss him.

" But now that I've married you, I'm so excited".

"Wonderful", said the husband, "but why?

"Your're with the "GOVERNMENT"..

Someone please tell me, do you like the current Ivan now? the way he behaves, acts, talk, joke. whatever it is. You like? is his behaviour acceptable? Is this attitude and behaviour the real me?

I seriously don understand what is wrong with me now. My mind is like in a turbulence state. Is the surrounding and other people affecting the way i react and think?

Or is it i am trying too hard to be someone which is not me? Am i that hard to understand? Or i don even know who i am, i don understand who i am.

am i trying very hard to get something or achieve something which i know its impossible to get? Which is why i am so stress and depress? why i always can't get what i wan but getting things that i don wish for?

i lived my life for more than 18 years but i dunno who i am, i dunno why i am walking this path. why am i living my life. who am i living it for. WHO AM I LIVING MY LIFE FOR? who.

I don't feel like doing anything except sitting in a middle of a pouring rain and cry out. YES now. 1.13am. yes i wan to be sitting in the rain and sleep till the next day. i want it badly.

RANTS AND RANTS AND MORE RANTS!
If You Are Not Ready Or Unable To Take Up The Role Of Main-Comm, Then FUCK OFF!

Today is serious a long day for me. Lessons from 8am-12pm.
Make up lessons for Gems from 1pm-3pm (luckily cancelled so i have time to study maths)
Maths re-test from 3pm-4pm.
Meeting with lecturers regarding SMAE Day 4pm-6pm
Ice Camp meeting 6pm-8pm

I do know what the hell i am facing recently. Its unlike any other stress i faced in the past. I left my file at a hawker centre after my meal for 4 times already. I only remember i got a file till i am on the train or at my destination and have to rush back to take. I lost way way in school. T1655 means block 16 5th storey and 5th room. I am suppose to go to this class for mt test today. but was later changed to T1546, i went 1 level below and walk to T17 which is connected to T16 and waited like an idiot. Went to class for test and had to go for meeting at T1743. I happily walk to T15 which is a block beside my re-test room and wait. Again waited like an idiot before realizing i went to wait at the wrong room again.

FUCKING HELL what is wrong with me recently.

Meeting with lecturers seriously raise my blood pressure and stress another level higher. Person A call up tim and i picked up the phone for him.

Me:where r u?
A : Orchard.
Me:WTF!? you know there is a meeting right?
A : no la kidding la i at home, sick with MC. (noisy background like in orchard)

he don sound sick, i saw him smoking healthily yesterday outside school, sick my ass. thats person A who have pissed me off for the umpteen times since he became a main comm of SMAEC.

Person B also pissed me off umpteen times for not attending meetings, being irresponsible. he was late for meeting today without valid reason. And meeting today with lecturer was a intense one. The atmosphere was not really good for any jokes or small conversation. But the few bunch of jokers at the back happily joke and yada yada and this Person B can talk and laugh damn loud. Lecturers was pissed off obviously by the looks on their face, and was asking him some questions. He just happily yada yada and laugh loudly oblivion to the lecturers asking him question. I turn around and asked him the questions the lecturer did.

Me:lecturer as you if you free next wed for meeting!
B : huh wat la?
Me: nvm wat class r u in A or B?
B :Whatever la! (continue yada yada)

How to not pissed?

Why the meeting was a tense one?

New director wanted sth new for SMAE Day. I am the Events I.C. for this SMAE Day and had planned activities and rundown of events for this Day. We had 6 meetings discussing these events and i personally had to do alot of things and racking of brain cells to come up with these ideas and the lecturers seriously pour cold water on me. I explain my point of view they shoot me back with like 100 of their point of view. Most of us main comm and club advisor have so call agree on my idea and wanted to implement it. Afterall we nv held an event something like this. And the lecturers wanted a ideal closely similar to my idea but pouring cold water on me for coming up with this idea. I seriously do not know what the hell they wants.

Luckily ICE camp meeting was pretty less tense. Afterall all the people present there and students and those who are sociable and jokers type. Which really helps me alot with my mood at that time. But still the stress level is there. 6 days later gonna have another lecturer meeting to talk into the events. so happens that my exams starts next week!

during the meeting Tim(chairman for SMAE Day) pass me a small note.
Someone kill me please! Kill me!
my reply was,
Kill me first!

Study By The Beach

Studying by the beach is rather nice, with the sea breeze against ur face. But once night falls can't read a thing. Went to parkway parade mac to study with Mel. Went to ECP to find birthday girl and more peeps. Its been long since i seen them so i drop by. They play and i study. Spooky experience. Upload picture soon.

compensation for the past few days of not blogging here are more jokes.

Management Course



Lesson 1:


A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.

The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.

When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor

Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'


After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.


The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.

When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'

'It was Bob the next door neighbor she replies.

'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'



Moral of the story:


If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure

Lesson 2:


A priest offered a Nun a lift.

She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.


The priest nearly had an accident.


After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily
and went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'


Moral of the story:

If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.


Lesson 3:


A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.

They rub it and a Genie comes out.
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'
Puff! She's gone.

'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'




Puff! He's gone.

'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after
lunch.'


Moral of the story:

Always let your boss have the first say.

Lesson 4



An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.

A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.


Moral of the story:

To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson 5

A turkey was chatting with a bull.

'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'
'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.


Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.



Moral of the story:

Bull S
*# t might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..



Lesson 6



A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.

While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.

The dung was actually thawing him out!

He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.

Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.



Morals of the story:

(1) Not everyone who s
*#* s on you is your enemy.

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of s
*# t is your
friend.

(3) And when you're in deep s
*# t, it's best to keep
your mouth shut!

An old man and woman were married for many years, even though they hated each other.

When they had a confrontation, screaming and yelling could be heard deep into the night.

The old man would shout, 'When I die, I will dig my way up and out of the grave and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!' Neighbors feared him. They believed he practiced black magic, because of the many strange occurrences that took place in their neighbourhood.

The old man liked the fact that he was feared. To everyone's relief, he died of a heart attack when he was 98.

His wife had a closed casket at the wake. After the burial, she went straight to the local bar and began to party, as if there was no tomorrow...

Her neighbours, concerned for her safety, asked, 'Aren't you afraid that he may indeed be able to dig his way up and out of the grave and come back to haunt you for the rest of your life?'

The wife put down her drink and said, 'Let him dig. I had him buried upside down......'

Bloody women they think of everything!!!!

Joke For The Day


A distinguished young woman on a flight from Switzerland asked the Priest
beside her, "Father, may I ask a favour?"

"Of course. What may I do for you?"

"Well, I bought an expensive woman's electronic hair dryer for my mother's birthday.
The dryer is unopened and well over the Customs limits; and I'm afraid they'll
confiscate it. Is there any way you could carry it through Customs for me? Under
your robes perhaps?"

"I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you: I will not lie"

"With your honest face, Father, no one will question you."

When they reached the Customs area, she let the priest go ahead of her. The official
asked: "Father, do you have anything to declare?"

"From the top of my head down to my waist, I have nothing to declare."

"The official thought this answer strange, so asked, "And what do you have to declare
from your waist to the floor?"

"I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date,
unused."

Roaring with laughter, the official said, "Go ahead, Father." "Next."
