xmas

today is 25 dec.... kids wake up in the morning happily to open up the presents that santa gave to them. despite all the bad economic situation, Santa still is able to give all the presents. huhu anyway, i wonder how the southerners celebrate Christmas since they're in summer right now. do they celebrate christmas with snow pics too? i mean artificial snow whatever. oh anyway, merry christmas to my christian friends and happy new year to all.  ^^ 

boxer for christmas!!!!

oversea

why do choose to study oversea?
-i want to travel and look at the other country
-i want to feel 4 season country
-i think it is cool(something like that)
-i can get a good education from that country for the course that im going to pursue
-i follow what was given to me and i happened to end up here
-CHANCE!!!! and i didnt let go of it
-i waant to go to that country!!!!
-my country is too hot
-get to know the caucasian
-i just want to study oversea

any other reason? i dont know, but the fact that most of them regret when studying abroad is just pissing me off. you want to study abroad. yes you were given the chance. and now dont regret and say stuffs like the food here is awfull, it's too cold here, ohhh how i wish im in msia right now. come on, be grateful for what you get. there are lots of other people that want to go here but then they probably just want to have a taste of what it would be like to live here in western country and feel the coldness. and when they have the tasted what that white thing called snow is they will hate it because it is too cold and they cant walk properly. it's a cliche thing when people try to explain too them they will say oh i will be fine. i can survive that and that is just a simple thing. pffft talk about people are just the same. haha

final of the final

7 hours to go and here i am.....

i just hope i dont do something terrible that will screw up everything. yeah

remember, the darkest hour is just before the dawn...

i want to listen to this kind of song right now to prevent me from sleeping but then it is not suitable as im reading. so here goes mute.

probability

ok let's play probability game
in a test, the passing mark is 50.
there are 50 true or false answer. each correct Q will add 1 mark but each wrong ans will deduct 0.5 mark
then there are 10 essay Qs that have 5 mark each......

assuming that the student only scores 20 to 30 marks for his essay Q, what is the probability of the student to pass?

Monsoon history

The air is wet, soaks
Into mattresses, and curls
In apparitions of smoke
Like fat white slugs furled
Among the timber
Or silver fish tunnelling
The damp linen cover
Of school books, or walking
Quietly, like centipedes,
The air walking everywhere
On its hundred feet
Is filled with the glare
Of tropical water

Again we are taken over
By clouds and rolling darkness
Small snails appear
Clashing their timid horns
Among the morning glory
Vines

Drinking Milo, 
Nyonya and Baba sit at home. 
This was forty years ago. 
Sarong-wrapped they counted 
Silver paper for the dead. 
Portraits of grandfathers 
Hung always in the parlour.
Reading Tennyson, at six
p.m. in pyjamas 
Listening to down-pouring 
Rain: the air ticks 
With gnats, black spiders fly, 
Moths sweep out of our rooms 
Where termites built 
Their hills of eggs and queens zoom 
In heat. We wash our feet 
For bed, watch mother uncoil
Her snake hair, unbuckle
The silver mesh around her waist, 
Waiting for father pacing 
The sand as fishers pull 
From the Straits after monsoon.

The air is still, silent
Like sleepers rocked in the pantun,
Sheltered by Malacca.
This was forty years ago,
When nyonya married baba

- Shirley Geok Lin-Lim -
