Color Test

Presently, you are trying to break away from a situation that is causing you considerable worry and concern. Things are getting on top of you and you are feeling depressed almost to breaking point. Obviously there must be a way out – but at this time the solution seems to be escaping you. You want to ‘get away from it all’ and as a consequence you appear to be sullen and introverted and refuse to get involved in any discussion or arguments which could aggravate the situation. Accept the fact that ‘as you feel – so your body will respond’ and ‘pretend’ to the world about you that everything is going beautifully as, if you act as if ‘all is going well’ everything will, whether you believe it or not, work out as you would like it to. Which ever way you turn you feel that you are being utterly thwarted. There is considerable conflict in the air but you will stick to your beliefs and not be deterred in endeavouring to attain your objectives. It is amazing that you yourself believe that old ‘adage’ that you are a misunderstood person – and you feel that because of this you are being left out in the cold. It is because of this lack of believed understanding that you feel the need to conform to society in general – but this situation leaves you ‘cold’ knowing that you are not appreciated for your true self. Any relationship that you are developing at this time does not seem to involve any true emotional commitment, you seem to be just playing along. For whatever the reason, you find it extremely difficult to sustain relationships – that is to sustain them in the manner that you would wish. You are a very gentle sort of person, full of feeling, sensitivity and susceptible to love and affection, looking and longing for a partner with whom you can enjoy ‘All things bright and beautiful’ – someone with whom you can seek out the more esoteric things of life. But up to now this person has only existed in your imagination. You are very choosy, appreciative, refined and extremely artistic in temperament and it is your hope to seek others who will allow you to form and express your own taste and judgement and who at the same time may assist you in your intellectual or artistic growth. In the past your trusting attitude has often been misunderstood and so you have needed to protect yourself against your tendency to be abused and taken advantage of. As a consequence you possibly adopt an aloof and critical attitude and you are only willing to let your guard down once sincerity and trustworthiness can be assured.

Hmm.. I wonder if it’s true….

Wanna try?

Please don’t look if you’re expecting something good.

Seriously, I don’t know what to write right now.

If I am told to write what’s on my mind right now, I would write Routing… DNS.. IP… OSI Layer..

OMG.

Well well well. At least mugging like this shows “value” of studying. I mean, what kind of studying (applies to studying theories) that doesn’t include mugging?

Oh shoot. I just know that the research paper summary must be handed in… errrr.. uploaded by tomorrow. Argh.

Time to work. Work work work.

Award Me

I’m never a great person who deserves to get an honorable award or something.

But this time, let me award myself.

See, I think I deserve an award for “The Writer of The Shorter Message on MSN Messenger”

Oh thank you. You don’t need to applause like that.

Oh by the way, congratz to Ang Chuang Yang, a Raffles Institution student who made a world record using his thumbs. Yea, I’m serious. He won the sms-typing competition held by Singtel. Sigh. Sadly I and my other Indonesian friends couldn’t participate regarding our nationality.

If only I could.. I would have got an award of “Fastest Thumbs”, not “The Writer of The Shorter Message on MSN Messenger”.

And of course, with trophy, $12,000 cash and more than $13,000 worth of prizes including a 17” MacBook Pro, shopping vouchers and the latest mobile phones from Sony Ericsson, Nokia and Motorola.

(I copy-pasted it. Too lazy to type)
Haha. Ohwells. You wish.

I’m signing out.

IP2 (Individual Project #2) craze

just to show you guys the IP2 craze….

Untukmu

Aku lihatmu
Ada
Kau ada
Di sini kau ada
Tamparku, buatku sadar
Ingatkanku dengan dulu
Impianku…. yang dulu
Akankah dulu itu jadi nanti
Akankah kau jadi nantiku
Ingin simpanmu
Kau kan pergi
Ada gunanyakah kusimpan?

My Class Is A Quiz Session

It’s all in the SMU advertisement : SMU has a different pedagogy.. Or something that sounds like that.

I won’t bother to recall their flowery words about the pedagogy thingy. As far as I can see, seems like that different pedagogy means one thing : class participation.

For you who is curious about pedagogy thingy, click here to get the definition.

SMU is proud for that. Yes believe me it is. Class participation makes up 20% of our total mark. Yes people. Yes.

So don’t expect dead silence in classes as I experienced for 17 years in Indonesia.

Instead… Expect a quiz session.

The process to get that damn class participation mark is to engage in a quiz. The fastest will get it.

You know the answer? Raise your hand!

But in here, instead of raising hand…

Interrupt.

The classes in SMU are Interrupt-Me-You-Fool Quizzes.

And I guess I still have to play in this quiz.. For 4 years more.

The List

Unlike my friend Aditya who proclaimed that he loves to write so-called meaningful (draft) essays to later be published on his blog (besides teasing me, bullying me, underestimating me, whatever-the-thesaurus-is-ing me, of course), I still like to post unimportant things, such as what you will see in not a minute time….

You hate run-on sentence don’t you.

These are the things that have been running through my mind for quite some time..

  • While I am writing this, why the hell are there people having a real tour in SMU? In SMU Library? D~oh? I thought Singapore has Orchard Road (with the Christmas trees even it’s only October November. thx maegan :p)
  • And I have to switch from my MSN session to this blogging window in order to look more “studently”
  • As if blogging is more “studently”?
  • Hey look. I just coined a new term.
  • Gash. Why did I switch? I just emphasized the image of SMU students are muggers. Or.. To make it more fashionable.. SMUgger.
  • Oh. I just realized that the people sitting behind me are sleeping. Okay. That makes an impression how comfortable the couches are.
  • I should do my report instead of writing this unimportant list.
  • But whatever.
  • But I don’t know what to say anymore.

Guess.. GOtta get back to the whole load of assignments. Have a nice day guys, while I won’t have mine. At least for two weeks more..

Not important enough to be posted, you say? Look, people, there is a reason why I have a category called “Trivial Things”.

little thing to add

the person behind me is snoring!

Type Me

I’m reminiscing my first time meeting this cute QWERTY thing. I think it was when I was in 4th grade of elementary school, where I was only eight years old or so. And it wasn’t my family’s inventory. hahahaha.

I think it was my uncle’s property. (don’t ask me the relation to him. I won’t bother to explain) I think he asked my mother to keep it or something.

And, as a 8-year-old innocent little girl, for me it was like having a new toy. Then there began the tippity tappity tippity tappity without even knowing what to type. I don’t remember whether I knew that the thing was supposed to be used to type.
Then……….

I broke it. Hahahaha. So my mother returned the typewriter with the typebars gone up. Hahahahaha.

THen after that my mom took out an old typewriter out of nowhere and put it on her working desk (which she hardly ever used).

At my 6th year of that damn elementary school, I got my first computer. Pentium 2 with second-hand harddisk (but at least it holds many nice songs such as Queen’s songs)

And there began again! Tippity tappity pluck pluck pluck (since I tapped so hard).

Until now, (after I got my new desktop and now a laptop), this qwerty thing is so attached to me.

Well.. It can release my desire to play piano again… Well, because i have to move my fingers, rite? No time to play piano anymore… :( arrrghh SMU is eating my usual life out! Is it already the time to change or is it.. is it.. is it.. whatever.

I’m out.
