Thank You Broadband!

I died today in Room 3 (where 3 in chinese suppose to sound like LIFE? proof that superstition don't work!)

There was a time when broadband deleted half of my oral exam question.
Had to mem-paiseh to ask the examiner to repeat.
Potong markah I blame you BROADBAND!

Still then I think I didn't talk enough. I was like "yeah, that's about it".
Then you hear the almost robotic "thank you" seconds after that.
Screw it screw it! (and I got quite simple questions! I just couldn't recall examples of stereotype in language) MY BAD.

Who cares? It's mooncake festival soon! eat more mooncake to relieve stress and cure depression. Probably Lin Yong or lotus paste has such function. Now I remember the English literature short story in Form 4... the LOTUS EATER! (How I wish to be one at times, away from all this stress!)

And life without Internet to do a lot of my important stuff is terrible.
But at least I get to study=)
Ish, study!

My Wonderful College BLOCKED the Internet

With the inevitable oncoming wave of globalisation where
the world becomes borderless through Tim Berners-Lee's invention
some extremely wise people have blocked such access without notification.
What a coincidence that all senior houses have no access to Internet!
And this is a time where uni applications come flooding in.
OUR FUTURE IS AT STAKE MY DEAR COLLEGE!

Probably they are making way for english oral exam
which has to fully utilise the wonderful broadband in Malaysia.

Man, it's scary to hear a voice from Australia that conducts my oral test.
Worst still they can see my panicked facial expression while I CANNOT see theirs
What if the wonderful broadband connection distorts my speech?
Deleted my important, marks-scoring points?
Tomorrow is the day 9.20 ante meridiem...
Pray people, for I'm talking to a computer alone in a room.
I'm going to go nuts!
Heard that the voice is fond of saying "Thank You! NEXT!"
aka cut off your conversation when the relevant points are coming in.
What a courteous machine!

Oh yeah, no internet means I won't be posting on my blog any sooner.
All the holidays photos are dying to come out of my hard drive!
Pray that such WISE measures will be taken back.

And I'm super EXCITED for mooncake festival this Saturday!
We can burn CK's house!!!

Great Depression Day 3

Today I feel very happy=)
TOTALLY NOT DEPRESSING...
Don't know how to do some Applicable Mathematics question
did not make me feel guilty at all.
I even decided to celebrate with McD Sundae Cone=)
I gave my best and managed to do a lot questions.
In fact, I felt it was the easiest paper thus far
and I gave up practicing for it yesterday.
But the marks probably will tell otherwise.

Perhaps another reason I feel happy was
that I'm going to come out of Great Depression soon!
(I purposely typed this to make the Engineering people jealous=p)
T.G.I Friday=)

For now, I just gotta read my Economics
and prepare to die tomorrow.
Thanks Chan, Tony and Jun Kai!
Long time didn't talk with you all.
Miss the times when we five go out together.
After mock sure must have one outing okay?

Great Depression Day 2

It was a great day of joy for Ms Say
who managed to lower the mean of everyone's scores
to meet the needs of the Curriculum Council of mean 65.
And another great day of depression for Calvin
who blanked one full question
with a lot more blanks on other subparts.
No more tall tall marks.
Screw up on the most weighted assessment for Physics.

Today proves that there's no such thing as Physics genes.

Now, I'm preparing to die for two more days...

Great Depression Day 1

The days of MOCK-ing and great depression has finally arrived...
Totally screwed up on Chemistry,
strange thing was that I didn't panic.
Finish everything although knowing many questions wrong
after sitting with three EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT people for lunch.
Find it rather amusing and fun to hear that I did wrongly for this and that.

(Probably, I'm nuts already by now=P)

Great Depression shall only last for four days
and the we CELEBRATE!!!
Keynesian economics will bring us daylight.
Hope so with Economics on the last day...

Physics is tomorrow and I have one night to read it all.
Will miracle happen again like mid-year?
Study one night scored highest in AUSMAT...

Anti-Social...

I can't believe that today
I did not even step out into my house's living room where the TV is!
Man, I'm too anti-social!
However, that didn't make me more studious today.
I slept and slept after reading a subtopic of Chemistry.
The more I study the more I eat too
The bread are diminishing at an amazing rate!

Le Chatelier-Calvin's Principle:
The higher the external pressure,
the number of food molecules and ions increase in Calvin's stomach!

Okay more Chemistry now...
No, try going out to the porch and have some fresh air
and get my milk from next door!

Procrastination

I'll read Chemistry later.
I'll finished off Physics homework later.
Aiyah, next time only do.
In the name of destressing, facebook first lar.

But next mock already.
Eh, next week got EALD only lar.
Still got one more week.
Oh, there's goes more procrastination.

Calvin, the procrastinator.

The Day After Merdeka

Since it's my EALD oral exam,
That sounds pretty much like The Day After Tomorrow
aka Lusa...LOL

Okay, enough of merdeka bashing
time for some patriotism.

Check out this link:
It's alternate stuff to all the 15Malaysia hoohaa



"This year, we got 3 Malaysians to rileks together. Afdlin Shauki, Dato David Aramugam and Ho Yuhang spent a nite at a pasar malam and talked about Malaysia. In the process, we got a few laughs and a lot of meaning."

I still can't believe Proton actually come this out.

Expensive Sunday

I just realised that I like to buy a lot of expensive groceries.

1.0 litre Marigold HL Milk (4 cartons)
costing RM 18.30
(that's already in the saver twin pack)
Ayamas Premium Chicken Cheese (2 packets)
costing RM 12.78
(I really like it a lot...my main source of protein for dinner)
Gardenia Original Wholegrain Fibremeal (1 loaf)
costing RM 3.00
(I ate very healthy one... wholemeal sumore)
Dry Apricots from Turkey (2 packets)
costing RM 9.98
(Sudden urge for apricots and I bought enough to last me for two weeks of craving)
Fresh Huluwa Dates from Saudi Arabia (500 g)
costing RM 12.90
(This is way too expensive, but would come in handy to belanja my Malay friends)
Philippines Dole Bananas (RM 0.59 per 100 g)
costing RM 6.07
(The bananas I eat also imported one because I gave up on Pisang Montel which decays at an exponential rate!)
TOTAL = RM 63.05 (rounding adjusted)

Man, all my fruits are imported!!! So tak sokong local fruits of Malaysia. What to do, most Malaysian fruits not fresh and hard to store and inviting ants.

My groceries very healthy and expensive, but I fall sick last week.
Now I know where my budget deficit comes from.

But this one is priceless:
The Jesus I Never Knew by Philip Yancey
Rediscovering the Jesus of the Bible...
Rediscovering the central figure that split history into two parts
from the comfortable images that we made him to be...

"No one who meets Jesus ever stays the same..."

BORING-est Day Ever!

1.30 PM
Mr Wong come in discuss that most people get full mark Economics Test Paper. Awhile everything gao dim. Had plenty of lepaking time doing Maths Assignment.
3.00 PM
Mr Derick showed a lot of powerpoints on woman discrimination... blah blah blah (I respect women's rights okay? though a lil chauvinistic at times...hehe. Someone got to defend the guys from extremist feminists all around.)
4.00 PM
The last EALD assignment. Super boring. I don't even feel tension with the time limit. My job was just to do one powerpoint slide comparing some texts and that's it. Sienz. (This is not an excuse for you - Mr D to lower marks... it simply means I was relaxed doing your work which is a good thing)

Go home eat eggs with bread and ketchup.
Kesian. Boring.

Even this post is so boring.
But tomorrow is going to be exciting.
The liberation of steam at Yuen's!
(Guess what ler... read next post!)

Sick again?

Yor, please... this is like the second time I get flu after just a few weeks?
And this is a wrong time to be sick.
There are exams, assignments and mock exam to study.
I have IBA Unplugged to go!
Now thinking most likely I can't go because I might just infect the Brethrens.

Calvin, can you just be more healthy?
And those H1N1 people walking in college like nobodies business, please don't come.
And those have business like Kay Bee You... please close the college!
This is so sick!

Busy

Practice so long for EALD group assignment
Didn't get to present
And then all the other groups did so well
That we need to "upgrade" ourselves.
Most of our points are taken, nothing left fresh.
Pressure!

All for that so desperately wanted 20 marks!
Mr D, have mercy upon us!

Punctured

I found out recently my
"the-place-where-you-pump-bicycle-tyre-that-hole-cover"
was lost.
Don't know who's the culprit who remove it,
(hope it's not me!)
made me ended up cycling at the speed of walking to KBU today.
Cycling with a punctured tyre is like
cycling with a piece of rubber dragging you,
making the most annoying sounds
that deafens the silence of Main City.

There's a goes another punctured and boring day
in Calvin's life...
with tonnes of organic chemistry homework and physics questions...

Precipitation

I decided to watch my clothes today.
And it's not Mr Derick's class.
No tulah. No thunderstorm. No rain.
WRONG!!!

The moment I pour the washing powder into the washing machine.
The sky turned black within seconds.
Winds rage like Katrina is coming.
Heaven's gate open up
and the GREAT DELUGE!!!
It was raining cats and dogs.
Okay, it's doomsday... at least for my clothes...

Worst still it refused to stop, teeming all the way to 2 pm.
I thought it was cycle-able it that mizzle.
Man, I was wrong.
The raindrops are so annoyingly huge!

Nevertheless, enjoyed walking in the rain.
Even though late for Ms Say's class.


The sky opens up over me and you
And you don't seem to mind that we're soaked through
You kiss me in the rain, I forget what I'm moaning about
And I know I wouldn't be the same without you.

H1N1

Probably I know where did H1N1 originated.
My room!
And all the dust on, dust on, dust on MY FEET!
My nose is running all over the room
and my body feeling so hot!

Perhaps I would follow BJ's footstep:
I WOULD DIE FOR YOU...
may it be in death I glorify Him
(and yeah, can't wait to go heaven XD)

However, the outlook seems that
I'M GONNA BE STUCK HERE
for some time more.
So pray.
I HATE FLU!!!

First Day At College

It's been a year.
Start new blog.
