Google vs Women
I came up with this while doing my Java homework. My dear told me where my pencil case was before I could even ask. Women are like Google, except they search the house and say the results aloud.

O2 Atom Exec
I've been super busy since university started; it's nothing like polytechnic. Tutorials must be done, breaks spent revising and weekends filled with lab exercises and tutorials. The lab work is graded, which is why we simply have to do it.
My Dream PC In 2008
With nothing to do, I'm crashing Wei Quan and Suqin's Software Engineering lecture. I'll get a new PC in 2008, since my desktop, born in 2003, is due for its five-year replacement, hopefully a quad-core with 4GB of DDR3.
Parking Problem
My neighbourhood has a major parking problem. I live in Bukit Purmei, a small estate of just 15 blocks, in block 115. After dropping Li Xiang home at 2.30am, I came back to find nowhere to park.
School Starts
My NUS orientation group, Veragok, God of Shadow, won best orientation group. Some activities were a bit silly, but I'm glad I went to most, as I made plenty of friends, making lectures, lunches, labs and tutorials more enjoyable.
ORD LOH
This is the day every NSF waits for: after two years and two months serving the nation, it's time to ORD LOH. My NSF life ran from BMTC 2 Pegasus in June 2004 through Provost training.
Year 1, Semester 1 Modules
These are the modules I'm taking in my first year, first semester: Data Structures and Algorithms worth five MCs, Computer Organisation, Discrete Structures, Introductory Mathematics, and English for Academic Purposes. A solid foundation to begin my computing degree at NUS.
NUS Maticulation/Orientation
NUS matriculation was very fast; within 20 minutes I was already paying for my notebook. On entering the sports hall we submitted most of our forms and received our matriculation cards immediately, then browsed the laptop booths.
Lady In The Water At The Lake House
A fun title, combining Lady in the Water with The Lake House! It's been a while since my last entry, as I've been busy with NUS activities. Lady in the Water was rather rubbish; I didn't like it.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
I caught Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest last weekend, a roughly 150-minute film that wasn't bad, though the ending was bizarre. Apparently it's a trilogy, with a new villain called Sao Feng.
Redang Trip
Being lazy, I've copied and lightly tweaked this from Sleepy's blog. Day 1: my first night was spent on a luxury coach with individual TV screens for movies and music, the selection quite up to date too.
Back From Redang
Hi guys, I'm back from Redang and have uploaded some pictures; click through to the Redang Trip July 2006 gallery. Most photos are there except those from the disposable underwater camera, which we'll develop and digitise before adding them.
Shakira – Bamboo Hips Don’t Lie (Live At World Cup 2006)
Here's Shakira singing Hips Don't Lie live at the closing ceremony of the 2006 FIFA World Cup. It's a rare clip, as it wasn't broadcast on many TV stations, absolutely a must-watch for any fan.
Italy Winner Of FIFA World Cup 2006
Italy are the FIFA World Cup 2006 champions after beating France 5-3 on penalties, while Germany took third place by beating Portugal 3-1. It's Italy's fourth title. Watching the final, though, I couldn't shake some doubts.
Today Is My Last Day
Today is my last day in camp. After this I'll clear leave all the way until 4th August 2006, when I finally get my Pink IC. Thanks to my INTEC friends for the support; I enjoyed my stay.
Funny Jokes
Some good jokes from the HardwareZone forums. Boy: may I hold your hand? Girl: no thanks, it isn't heavy. Girl: if we become engaged, will you give me a ring? Boy: sure, what's your phone number?
