Better the devil you know than the devil you don't

"I have finally took public transport! I mean, the LRT or PUTRA or KTM. They are all different entities and only until recently have I found it out. Oh, how shallow is mine knowledge in these matters. It is enough to embarrass a stupid cow. But yeah, I have conquered my mountain, just like Muhammad, I have approached it. As the saying goes, "If mountain cannot come to Muhammad, Muhammad must go to mountain." Simple. Yeah. Public transport is a piece of cake. ", says John.

Who the hell is he kidding? He who spend nearly 2 hours running around like a headless (and perspiring) chicken looking for ticket counters and right platforms so that he don't end up in Sri Petaling when taking the Ampang line. Oh, for the love of God.

Thank God Leelian was there to guide him to the Kelana Jaya station counter. Then again, that was her stop. No problem, guiding a public transport "virgin" for his tutorial hem?

So, how was the rest of my week before the euphoric episode of sitting on the train/LRT/PUTERI/KTM?

A little joke from Lloyd Lim, a dude from my class.

He has this teacher in his school in JB who taught him a subject I cannot remember, but what I do know is that she was very strict with her students. She's Indian and she's fat. (No rascism is intended in this joke) So, there are certain times when she goes patrolling throughout the school corridors (I'm not too sure about this part, but I do know she walks around) and she will cast her eagle eye around her to pick out any students worth dishing out punishment to. So, Lloyd's pals nicknamed her "Black Hawk Down". Haha.
I metaphorically cracked at this point like a Ming vase being dropped from the second floor of a penthouse belonging to a rare antique collector.

Pure Mathematics is turning out to be quite a big problem. As my lecturer Miss Chia said, students do experience burnout. So, I should actually use my Friday to relax and weekend to finish up my work.

Aiyaiyai, the MUN club meeting for the over 100 students will be held next week, 29 February 2008 from 3 to 4 pm. And I have not prepared the important materials to be presented on that day. Better use my time wisely.

Ken Vin's birthday celebration will be held on the 24th February when in actual fact it's 26 February (I got it right, right KV?). And he's inviting all the chicks there. I cannot miss this opportunity.

11 more days to the release of God of War: Chains of Olympus in the US. Not that I can buy it anyway.

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!

Okok, I have been looking for a PSP game that can really put my console to the test instead of not using it and leaving a voraciously docile monster of a PSP in its cage. So I have decided to want to get God Of War: Chains of Olympus for myself. Whether I can afford the tag is another matter. Check out this vid.



I really wish to get a button mashing game because I feel the buttons are getting sticky from lack of use.

Cute movie!!! But quite stupid plot...

Went to the movies today! Wohoo. With sis and Wei and Keshinn and Deepaa and Josh. Watched CJ7 (do not ask what the title means, it has a stupidly long explanation...) which was pretty cute. The alien I mean, not the child who was sexually confused about who (s)he was. Want a cute movie to laugh about and make the children smile? Watch this movie. Without cynical and sarcastic people of course, they'll spoil the atmosphere. Just slap duct tape on their pieholes and enjoy the movie. Oh, I tear-ed once...on quite a stupid part. How sensitive!

What I have written, I have written.

I like these few Latin sayings I am lifting out from a website.

"Quod scripsi, scripsi." (What I have written, I have written--Pilate. And he probably did speak in Latin.)

"Veni, vidi, vici" (I came, I saw, I conquered. (Caesar))

"Exegi monumentum aere perennius." (I have erected a monument more lasting than bronze. (Horace))

"Carpe Diem!" (Seize the day (Horace))

(at this juncture, I am starting to wish I can read and speak Latin...)

"Veritas Lux Mea" (The truth enlightens me / The truth is my light (Motto of Seoul National University in South Korea)) --originally intended to be the motto of the Taylor's MUN club but KV disagreed and said that people cannot read Latin. I couldn't agree more.

Homines libenter quod volunt credunt. Men freely believe what they want to. (used by Julius Caesar)

"non omnia possumus omnes" (We all cannot do everything. (As Virgil explains in the Aeneid, no one has expertise in all fields.) )

"nemo me impune laccessit" (no one harms me unpunished (the motto of Scotland for roughly a thousand years or so))

"Meum pactum dictum" (My word is my bond)

"Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam." (to the greater glory of God - motto of the Society of Jesus)

"De omnibus dubitandum" (Everything should be questioned - Karl Marx) --including the theories you expound....

feels like tonight

Suddenly, all the boxes in the cold storage of my microprocessor start jostling and juggling around. Something is waiting to burst open. Wonder what it is..

~~~~~~~~~~~

Aha. Well, As the public should know, Taylor's University College Subang Jaya (or TUCSJ for you seniors) finally has a MUN club! Hah. With a very radical person in charge. Godbrother and Good Friend Lek Ken Vin. Oh MY God. And I am VP. Guess what was the first thing he told me when he first suggested the proposal of the club to the ECA centre and I 'hah'ed at him.

"John..........................................................be a leader for once...."

What the frigging shit. Thanks a lot.

Nevertheless, Taylor's has over a hundred members now, thanks to all the members of the EXCO.

We are going to have "helluva" lot of fun! Wohoooo!!!!
No stopping us now, including the bureaucracy at the ECA Centre. *Evil lol.


~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh ya, my sis is coming back tomorrow from some ridiculous people's idea of a camp. Hah. No need to cook by myself 'adi'!!

~~~~~~~~~~~

I have some downloaded movies for her to watch! Hah, she's going to be soooo pleased. There's Miami Vice (my personal favourite, lotsa action!) and a session of Russell Peters (big time dirty and racist joker). Bwahahaha.

~~~~~~~~~~~

I've been tagged!!! Arrgh!

There are some rules that I have to follow if I were to do this tag but frankly shouting, I do not give a bloody damn about rules. The running of the MUN club of Taylor's taught me that. Proceed throwing all caution to the wind.

Questions:

1. What is your dream when you were a small kid?
To be a garbage collector. Ok, that was just a joke. I had plenty of dreams. Being a pilot. An officer in the army. A priest. But I chose to take the road less traveled. And it has made all the difference in the world. (haha, would you believe he's following what Robert Frost said? Crap.)

2. What is the happiest thing in your whole life?
What kind of a question is that? I am only 17! How would I know what made me the happiest in my whole life? I have not even lived yet.

3. What do you wish to have right now?
A job which pays 100, 000 Euros a month, tax free.

4. When is the last time you horse laughed?
I am a human. I mean, I know that we descend from apes (according to the theories expounded by Charles "Unbeliever" Darwin)so how can I laugh like a horse? I laugh as heartily as my human capabilities allow me to which does not make me sound like a horse.

5. What did you realize recently?
That I tend to ramble when I am sick. Which is what I am doing now.

6. Which bad habit in you that is the most unacceptable?
Farting in public? I mean in public toilets..heh. No, my worst habit is swearing ever so liberally and adding expletives to every noun I can get this microprocessor(we call a brain) on.

7. When you are unhappy, what will you do?
Throw a tantrum and throw everything breakable and unbreakable everywhere. No, that was what I did when I was a kid. Now, I just swear.

8. What are you afraid of losing?
My soul to the devil.

9. Within 5 years, which target is the most realistic one?
Going to Germany to major in Mechanical Engineering.

10. List out 3 kind(s) of people you hate the most.
(1)Lackeys
(2)Cheating husbands/wives
(3)Fake people

11. Define loneliness?
An absence of someone which makes the heart fonder?

13. Are you satisfied with your life now?
Quite. (nothing witty to say..)

14. When is the most recent time you felt touched?
When I called someone and she said that she was "so totally flattered" that I called her and she did not see it coming.

15. Where is the most beautiful place that you've visited?
Malaysia. Hah. I have been overseas twice. One was to Chandigarh and the other was to Houston. I must say I prefer US to foul smelling India.

16. If you have a wish to come true, what is it?
To be able to buy a Porsche 911 Turbo and still afford the road tax and drive it on the Autobahn.

Got bored of the questions....

Doped like a fish

I'm up to my gills in coke partied down with drugs.

Just kidding. I nearly finished a 1.5 l bottle of Coke which was watered down with salt. Taking my antibiotics too.

Yours untruly (and insincerely) was sick for almost 1 week. Possibly got a virus from Grace or Kelvin. After all, in college, people are always in close proximity with each other (not the "close proximity" as in khalwat u ass) and it is of a high possibility that people get infected from each other's germs.

I am starting to ramble already...
