The night rantings

Do you ever ask the question of what are you doing with your life? The questions are constantly popping up lately, especially after my graduation. My brigthly optimistic side like some optimistic ppl I spoke to say that my life is going to be good once I complete my MBA. My pessimistic side, like the same brand of people, ask why the heck I am still studying at my age. I discovered a long lost feeling......... I think its jealousy but I am not sure. I am proud that my sister is doing something with her life, but when I look back at myself, I ask if the decision to study is right, if I should also get my butt out there and earn some bread. Haiz, guess my resolve is weakening due to the spate of financial woes lately. But then again, its just fleeting thoughts. An MBA is something that I always wanted. I will do it, and hopefully earn an obscene salary when I graduate. Do you know that the salaries of Investment bankers are obscene, okay, so their working hours are kinda hardcore too. How can anyone stand 16-18 hours days 7 days a week. What about family, friends and me time? I read an article that says a good partner is worth slightly more than $160000 per year and good sex life is worht more than $90000. So I gues I wont be taking an investment banking job anytime soon......

Wait what if I can take home a quater million dollar salary and use a small portion to buy a good partner for good sex.....
I betta quit the thought. muahahahahahhaahhaha.

Meeting the top three honchos of my faculty soon. The dean and two vice dean. A final showdown as I would like to call it? One against three you say. Low chance of winning? Not if I am one who is not afraid of anything and with a well thought out plan. And who can say they have a meeting with all three of em at the same time. muahahahhahahahahahah.

Yay, I am getting the hang of frontpage, still do not know how to adapt frontpage to bloggers template though. And it feels good that someone thinks my work is good enuff to be submitted to a journal. Thats one thing that has to be worked on in the coming weeks. I am getting increasingly impatient and disapointed with N*S admin by the minute. Although I am swamped with work at the moment, I would make sure the irregularites in the system is made known if they continue to disregard my rights as a student/ former student. Turning green, Incredible Den is going to stir things up!!! I would release mopre details of the matter after it is resolved. Tot I am going to do a piece on my application for MBA sometime. But too busy at the moment. Toodles.

A nice view from my house. Will miss living high up when I relocate......... 

Mr dean still haven reply yet. After all, he said he be back in the office by today. Okay, I will give him 1-2 more days to consider my request before I launch another barrage of "attack". Good thing Mr vice dean apologize to me, otherwise I might consider taking legal action against him. So wat if he is a high position bureacrat, does not give him the right to get someone name wrong three times in a row. And call me "Hell Big/Boss". I wonder what decision they will come to? Give me or dun gimme. If they give me at least they can contain the damage, if not I probably will be a loose nuclear missle. hahahahaaahhaa. The days I am opressed by the system is finally over. Power to the people. They should take a leaf from Enron boooks. One man can point out irregularities of the system and bring it down. Decide and decide fast.............

2nd Anniversary Present!!! 

Going for my webpage design course tomorrow. Maybe then I will be able to do some snazzy stuff for my blog. In the meantime, its just plain but coloured with my rantings. Should I write the gambling article for my journal? I am still thinking. Argh. so much to do and so little time. I need money!!!!!!!

So he think he can mess with me? so wat if he is a english language and literature prof, dept head and vice dean. Do not think you can manipulate my life just because you are a bureaucrat. I may be a sleepy lion, but I bite and I bite hard when my territory is invaded. This will teach you to remember my name. wahahahahahhahha.

Shrek 2 is a great movie. Watchit! Pity its a bit short and my fave donkey parts are limited.

I am just a small stone, but I can create big ripples in the sea. For once, I just hope the butterfly effect holds true. I will attempt to challenge the bureaucrats and pray for changes in the day to come. All this because of 0.02.

Played mahjong today. Won $30+ bucks. :) Was losing at first but gao a few 5 tai at the end. Gfrd just lost two tuition assignment. Really need to get the R.A. job in order to help her out when necessary. Haiz. I never view money importantly for all my life. My concept has always been got porridge eat porridge got rice eat rice. Just live within my means. But she have to worry abt her fees and stuff. Guess these are some of the times I am thankful that I do not have to worry abt such issues. Getting late. Better get some shuteye......

Terrible Monday

Tired. haven been so tired for a long time. Attending those stupid computer courses from 9 to 5 really takes a lot out of me. I like go to school for 3 hours per week for the last semester. I miss my sleep. Miss my me-time. Just came back from yet another kopi session with a close frd. He is still not over his loss of his gfrd of 7 years. Haiz. Tomorrows my 2 year anniversary with my gfrd. Called to make restaurant reservations and got the presents all wrapped up. I am broke. Gonna utilise my plastic for the first time and worry about how to pay my dad back later. Argh. Graduating from NUS is as terrible as I foreseen. Can't bum legally now. Haiz. Research assistant job application is still pending. Waiting for my formal letter of offer from Melbourne Business School. So much to do yet so little time. Well, at least I am starting something new. My first attempt at blogging. Hope I can improve on it after my webpage design lesson. For now it would have to stay simple. Well, but too busy to even start my reading in preparation for my MBA.

I dread the tot of having to go for my computer lessons tomorrow. First of all, although I am not really schooled in computers, I am not an idiot. I do not need the instructor to use 1 hour teaching me how to make a new folder. Well, maybe its my own fault that I chose to start at the beginners level. Tot I build up a strong foundation. Oh well.......... Tomorrows lessons on excel, hope I leanrt more than making folders then. Give me the strength to wake up. And I have yet to kik myself for my low finances. Poor poor, bugger. Aniversary and birthday of gf coming up. Haiz...... Broke. And the card my dad supp for me is taunting me. I must resist, I must resist. Coz no money to pay the bills if I go plastic happy. Still waiting for my formal letter of offer from Melbourne Business School to arrive. Oh ya, must remember to make reservations fro the restaurant. Many things to do......... many many things.

I hate computers!!!

First, last week, my sisters has invited worms
and viruses to reside in my com thru opening
every mail from tom, dick and harry. Yes, yes,
even those with attachments. Argh, I was born in
a time when Mr gates and windows have not taken
over the world and computers displays were
green/black and white. Yet I know the rule of
not opening any mail, esp those with
subjects "Hi", "I Love you" and "make me your
sex slave".

The bloody computer crash on me. Imagine life
without internet. I felt like an hermit for two
days before getting my lazy butt to reformat the
com and install all the drivers. Guess wat, Just
when I was about to finish (two days of work),
my sisters have outdone themselves by kena-ing
two more worms. Argggghhh, Arghhhh, Argh. Now my
cd drives can't work. But i figured its alright
just as long I am connected........

But no...... my sis got her laptop infected with
the sasser virus becoz she refuse to take time
off to update windows. And guess wat, I became
the com repair man again. Y is it me? The person
who has in his whole life never created a power
point presentation? Me who used 3 hours to
figure out how to place the page numbers on my
thesis correctly. Yesh, I am a com idiot, born
in the dark ages and received almost ziltch com
education. But when I read thru all the blurdy
manuals and surf the web for guides to solve all
the problems, I sort of became expert at
rebooting. You know the chinese saying
about "when you have a long time sickness, you
can become a doctor"-something like that. Still
have a phobia about powerpoint slides though.

I am beginning to think computer are evil, sent
out to ruin my life. But I still think they are
necessary evil. Or is it siblings that are.......

Return me my $8.50!!!!!

Kill Bill 2 suks big time. Okay, so ppl told me
it suked b4 I even watched it. But heh, I was so
impressed how Q.T. managed to made a cool flick
(Kill Bill 1) using B-grade movies plot and
styles. And I liked the animes too.

But in part 2, that stoopid character Bill was
telling grandfather stories and wasting my $8.50
by the minutes. There no cool fighting scenes,
no comical blood spraying and the showdown
between the bride and the boss, Bill, was like 5
secs. 5 blurdy secs!!! and without bloody
spraying again. If its was the exploding heart
technique that killed Bill, at least have the
little courtesy to use CGs to explode the heart
or sumthin. They might has shown how the little
girl stepped on the goldfish. That would have
been surely the most exciting scene of the
movie, a girl fighting a goldfish. Thats saying
a lot for the rest of the movie.

So if you are thinking of watching the movie. My
advice, save ur money. renting the movie, save
ur money. d/l from kazaa, save ur electricity,
time and bandwidth. ITs simply not worth the
time and effort. And the dubbing of Bai Mei was
horrendous. Dun bother reading the subtitles.

If you are thinking of watching the movie after
I wrote all this, I will save you by spoiling it
for you. The guy assassin, whose stoopid name i
cannot remember was killed by a stoopid snake.
No resistance. The one eye gal other eye was
pooped, after just locking swords with the
bride. Bill was killed by walking 5 stoopid
steps after the bride hit him once. End of story.

Now, you all can thank me for saving ur time and
money by sending me money for watching the
stoopid show, suffering huge psychological
damage from boredom. I accept cash and LC.
