I'm Not Dumb!

It's not dat I'm becoming dumb.
It's jz d fact dat things aren't as easy as they used 2 be.
Laziness isn't the asset as it used to be.

Facebook

Ni memang angkara Cik Pei San @ BBQ (Blur Blur Queen) & Daphaney.

Gmbr2 ngada Miss BBQ memang cukup tempting utk sy laser puas.

Miss Daphaney pulak x abih2 srh sy wat account semata2 nk laser org.

So, sy join Facebook le. Mana la tau tgn sy hok mmg dh lembik gi rock/wall climbing ni kena pulak 2nd round ngan si Facebook...x abih2 kena klik sini klik sana, taip sini taip sana....tengok2 smpai pulak ms add org. Nk t'cabut jari add org. Dhla Facebook jahat 2 duk refresh list "suggested frenz" non-stop.

JAHAT!!!!

(Actually, ni akibatnya ada niat jahat. Kononnya nk bukak account utk laser & seksa org, mana tau kena seksa pulak....)


Update: Enjoyed my 1st nite in Facebook. 1 nite only 40+ ppl add me liao :
I bet frenz hu sign in 2moro sure shocked seeing BBQ's photo comments....

Life can seem like it's upside down at times...

But then, we have frenz 2 help us thru life sumtimes...

Helping a little wif our studies...


SMS-ing/chatting wif us in times of boredom (or blurness)...


Lending a shoulder to lean on (or actually leaning their shoulder near u la)...


Sticking 2gether thru d times...

Tennis Finals

Guess it's time for a lighter post after the previous one :P


Few weeks ago, we went 2 Mr. Kishan Kumar's place 2 watch d tennis finals (I seriously dunno wat tournament it was). Stakat nyibuk2 je & aso 2 watch Hema havoc2 wif Kishan as usual.


Tuan rumah, Mr. Kishan



Madam Rumah Miss Hema, the gila2 Djokovic fan...


Unfortunately, since Djokovic was out, Hema chose 2 b anti-Kishan. She supported Soderling in d finals. Tau2 jela wat happened.


Presenting....penyibuk2 lain yang menganggu Hema dan Kishan....


Cik Daphaney...



Cik Yen Nee...




Sori la ya muka blogger takde. Bukannya ada org nk tgk pun :P

My Effing Scholarship

~Being a scholarship holder isn't easy~

2 events yesterday made me want 2 say dat.

1) Some guy (in claz) kept asking bout Hema's grades (subject by subject) & her GPA. After every answer he said "But you're Hema! U can't get dis kinda marks! You're Hema!"

Do you know how seriously irritating dat is? Dahla lecturer tengah ngajar kat depan, budak ni sibuk kacau kita, dengan sedapnya demoralizing us. Saying dat "U're nt supposed 2 get dat results" is sorta motivating 2 us; it shows dat ppl look up to us. However, there's a limit whereby those repeated comments should stop. Period. After dat, it becomes demoralizing & annoying, not to mention plain rude.

Ppl look @ Hema & I & immediately assume we're geniuses while d fact is, we worked our asses off 2 get d scholarship. Ko tau tak, nk dapat scholarship tu bukannya mustahil. U jz hv 2 work for it. Having scholarships doesn't mean we're super special 4-flat students, especially in degree. So wat if we got barely above 3.1 in our first sem? Wat's important is dat we tried la. After all, we're humans.

2) Some girl (outside claz) said dat she had 2 worry bout spending & saving her parents' money while Hema & I didn't cz d 2 of us had scholarships.

My first reaction (inside) was

Wat the fuck?!

U tink we damn fun ah ada scholarships? We're d ones working our butts off 2 keep our scholarships barely afloat while others sedap2 skip classes & get a PTPTN loan. Here's one more thing: Having a scholarship doesn't mean we're rich or have more money to spend. It means we care enuf bout our parents' finances & hope save more money. Others pulak can skip classes, go on outings, balik rumah frequently. Who's d one wasting their parents' money? Ngata orang tapi tak sedar diri.

OK la, maybe we have no right to comment on how you burn "save" yr parents' money. But then, ko ingat mentang2 Hema & I ada biasiswa, ko boleh tepek muka kita ngan label "Xtra money to spend"?

Wat da hell do you tink you're saying?!

The money we saved from the scholarship does not go into our hands to fling around. We DO NOT, we repeat, DO NOT have extra money to spend jz bcoz of our scholarship.


Since you're so adamant bout saving yr parents' money, here's some tips from Mr. I-have-more-money-to-spend-so-I-don't-give-a-damn-bout-my-parents'-finances a.k.a me:
  • ~Cut your class-skipping acts. If you use your brain & think,
Skipping classes does not equal saving yr parents' money.
In contrast, you're skipping something yr parents' actually paid for.
Sorry ah....I retract d last statement. U have a loan rite? Not yr parents paying...sorry2...
  • ~Get better grades. Dat reduces d chances of u failing & repeating subjects. Tolong gok mak ayah mu jimat skit yuran.
  • ~Reduce yr outings. I simply don't get the point of goin out, spending money, & then claiming that "My parents aren't dat well off....I nid 2 help them save money."
  • ~Cut travel costs. Balik rumah every weekend tapi kabo nak jimat duit.
  • ~Off d damned electrical appliances when u're nt using them. Suka2 je keluar rumah tapi kipas, lampu, laptop bukak siap ngan lagu/movie lagi untuk hantu2 bilik enjoy.
Kalu nak ngata orang, tolong pandang cermin sikit la ya. Ada masa free tu, gi lerr study. Takyah nak duk sibuk doing nothing atau termenung saja2, x wat mende2. Sy dah muak tengok mu havoc2 dekat finals sibuk nk sumbat otak mu.

Ada lagi ni sy nk lepas geram. Entah le watpe ada gok segelintir pemuda skrg hok galok ngat nunjuk benda2 mahal diaorg beli, tempat2 posh diaorg gi, cuisine2 mahal diaorg mkn. Memang la xde apa yang salah kalu belanja duit hok mu ada, especially kalu duit tu mu yg cari (kerja kot?). Tapi kan....tak pernah ker ko terfikir nk kabo ke mak ngan ayah mu: "Bulan ni takyah bg allowance byk ngat la...takpe2"??? Dari mu beli brg2 hok memang xleh bawak ke kubur, baik mu tolong skit parents ko tu yg susah ngat cari duit utk mu guna sedap2.

Ni ada skit lg paradoks nih. Ada gok minah2 hok wat dek je ms cikgu ngajar. Kalu rasa muka cikgu tu nyampah skit, ponteng. Masa tutorials wat tak tau je, sedap2 tak buat. Kalu tak pun duk salin je. Takpe kan? Kot2 ni stail mu study la....siap ngan sedap lg mu pokpek dlm kls, pas tu ngata cikgu tu. Sy blh fhm kot. Tp yg memang sy x faham ni, lps exam mu duk kecoh2, kabo formula2 ngan soalan2 semuanya "ada dlm kepala tapi takleh keluar". Dah....obviously la ada problem kat sini. Atau ada 'missing link' yg sy xtau dlm kisah ni? Someone sabotaged u?

OK, assuming nasib mu memang malang la. Mu dah cuba tapi xleh jawab gok. Yg sy memang x faham ni, gane pulak time result keluar, mu boleh ngan bangganya kabo kat sedunia: "Memang pun.....sy x study sehabuk pun." Habis, watpe pulak tadi mu duk kecoh2 sal exam yg mu xleh jwb? Pesal contradiction melebih2 ni? Entahla...

Memang byk & "berbunga2" le sy tulis ari ni...tu pun x abis lg sy marah ni. Sorry la ya si pembaca malang. Kalu sy marah kat insan2 hok gatal mulut provoke sy bukannya guna pun. Bukannya diaorg blh faham gane susahnya hidup org hok ada scholarship.

Behind our happy smiles, there are other things.
We're smiling cz we saved our parents' money. I'm nt sure whether u will even recognise dat feeling.
We're smiling cz our efforts paid off (even if mine was only 50%). Shut up if yr efforts ain't enough to justify yr results.
We're smiling cz we know we've made our parents happy.

But then....our insides aren't filled wif laughter constantly.
There's d pressure inside (indirect or direct) from others, watching & awaiting our failure.
There's d fear dat we'll lose our scholarships suddenly, killing our parents' wallets & hearts.
There's d battles wif exams which we are forced to win no matter what, unlike people who barely scrape thru & feel nice condemning others.

And of course....how do expect me to smile hearing accusatory, insensitive, rude, blatant, dumb comments from people who have no sense of looking @ their own reflection first?

Haiz....d life of a scholarship holder....who says smart ppl only attract other smart ppl? Dey attract unwanted idiotic comments too.

Lessons For The Day

Being frustrated wif my inability to do my tutorials (I tink I'm simply turning dumb la....pls stop!!!), I've decided to provide my readers (are there even any?) some lessons 2day instead.


Lesson 1)
Do not expect humans to have the magical ability to create real objects out of mere images.
  • Observe d pic. Ya....there's a pic of a fire extinguisher...but no fire extinguisher. D same thing's happening all over Metrojaya Times Square.
  • Imagine a fire happening. Wat do we do? Cast a spell & turn d pic into a real extinguisher? Throw d pic into d fire, reciting an incantation? Here's wat: Just run.



Lesson 2) Do not expect others to feel syok too when u r busy syok-sendiri-ing (SS2-ing).
  • Miss Blur Queen on the left is either syok-sendiri-ing over her phone or merely figuring out how 2 activate d camera (typical blurness). Meanwhile, d 2 supposed subjects of her photo are being abandoned.
  • Mr. M has turned his attention 2 sum1 else playing basketball while frustration is clearly spelled on Miss Y's face. Haiz....


  • Unfortunately, when d blogger came 2 the rescue wif his cameraphone (same model as Blur Queen's one, it's jz dat d blogger isn't blurring over his one), Miss Y is so frustrated dat she refuses 2 take a pic. Note: Her Royal Blur-ness was still blurring/SS2-ing @ d moment dis pic was taken.



Lesson 3) Dun be an ass on the road.
  • Seems dat d ass-on-the-road virus is contagious. Notice d ass driver stopping his/her Kancil in d middle of d traffic light junction+yellow box....sakai betul....


  • Even dis motorcyclist has been ass-ified. Another person hu wants 2 mati awal.
(Note: A few moments after dis pic was taken, both asses took d opportunity 2 speed ahead while d traffic light was still red.)




Lesson 4)
Dun take lessons from a dumb fella.
  • D guy on d right is smart enuf 2 approach d genius on d left (seriously, he's damn smart) 2 ask for lessons. Well, considering d fact dat u hv been taking at least 3 lessons from d blogger hu feels dat he's becoming dumber currently, should you follow dis 4th lesson?


Til d next update....bye2....may you retain yr sanity~

New Template

Changed d blog template....I guess I hv notin better 2 do than gatal2 tangan change stuff :P

It's sorta plainer than d older one bt I guess dat helps in its loading speed. I get really pissed when I visit blogs wif lots & flashy2 stuff (hey, dun point @ my old blog layout ah) so I end up hitting d stop button & reading plain text.

Anyway, d new layout's a bit simpler & neater (IMHO). D blog lists hv been recategorised.
  • Not-So-Typical-Updates: Mostly funny/sarcastic blogs.
  • Rajin Update Sokmo: Blogoholics.
  • Life's Ongoings: Bloggers usually updating readers bout stuff happening in their life.
  • Dunno When They'll Finally Update: These ppl rarely update but sumtimes, it's worth d wait...
Well, I'm sorta lazy (I always am anyway) 2 update u guys/gals wif stuff so....l8r la :P

Sem 2, 1st Week

D 1st wk in Sem 2 has passed. I can't control d urge 2 cheer myself up wif d fact dat I'm in Yr1 Sem 2 degree while being still 17 @ currently :P

Anyway, d 1st wk was so-so la. Most of our lecturers are sorta...well...."experienced". And....based on my observations (my opinions only ah), d female lecturers dis sem outdo d male ones.

Lecturer 1: Male. Boring & syok sendiri. Whole class happily clapped @ d end of his 1st lecture.

Lecturer 2: Male. Turtle-ish, in lecture speed, style & looks (neck sticks out in a turtle way). 2 gila clazmates attempted 2 clap 2 cut his lecture but got no sambutan from classmates. I guess dey were 2 sleepy 2 respond.

Lecturer 3: Male. Pretty nice guy. We finally have a decent male lecturer dis sem.

Lecturer 4: Female. Very cheerful, loud, energetic. I dare say she's one of our best lecturers so far.

Lecturer 5: Female. Manages 2 make an otherwise boring subject into an interesting one. Doesn't mind using time to feed us wif additional info. Doesn't mind us grabbing our fren's answers when we're called out 2 answer stuff on d whiteboard.

Lecturer 6: Still unknown since Saturday's a holiday. Ya lor....UTAR ada kelas on Saturday :(

So...how will dis sem be? I sure hope I can regain my foundation grades. I know for sure dat 3.1 is soooooo not up to my standards.

Why ah?

I dunno where dis question suddenly came from.....

Why do supermarkets have a separate section for pork-based stuff? To respect certain religions.

Why don't supermarkets have a separate section for beef-based stuff? I seriously dunno.

Can any1 enlighten me?
