Went to Sitex show today and as it was just like normal PC Show...nothing really special about this one except....
We were standing in front of the Lexmark demonstration and the host suddenly pin-pointed me, "The one in red, YES that one. Could you come out and answer some questions?". Hmm....could I be the lucky one to win the palm zire? I decided to just give it a shot and here I go, walking onto the stage and answer some really simple damn obvious questions. Got myself a Lexmark analog watch with Stefanie Sun's face on the watch's face. OK no palm zire for me anyway.
Board a bus to Tampines mall for dinner after that. Chatted for quite a while in the food court before we decided to take a train to geylang for more supper. Tried the infamous "Smelly Beancurd". It isn't as smelly as I think it will be....very disappointing.

Been a member of friendster for nearly 2 months but I only have 5 "friends" in there. The reason is because I am using a hotmail email address that none of my friends know of. I have received invitations to add me into my friends' community but all used my pacnet email address. But I think that's okay because I do find friendster sucks a lot. It used to be very fast in loading but then after an influx of members coming in, loading time of friendster pages is unacceptable.
I just get to know another site that works similar to friendster but is definitely better in terms of speed and features. Try out http://www.myspace.com.
This time I am using my yahoo account hongjun_wap@yahoo.com.

Stereotyping ends up in universal statements such as the following:
(1) All mathematics professors are absent-minded.
(2) All science graduates cannot write.
(3) All computer buffs are nerds. -> i took computing
(4) All Singaporeans are “kiasu”.
(5) All capitalists are evil.
(6) All socialists are destructive.

Went back to school today to consult my OS lecturer. I have got 2 lecturers for that module and the better one named "Hugh" was out. So I have no choice but to consult the second choice Roland. Roland don't practise "open door" policy and he put emphasis on following consultation hours.
It was 4pm, 6 hours past his allocated consultation hours. I knocked the door and heard "Come in". The moment I asked "I have some questions to consult you", he replied, "You came at the wrong timing and I have got something to do and so be QUICK!". I really made it real quick! Every question asked by me was always followed by his shocked and surprised look plus short structured replies. He really made me sound stupid.
My first impression on him when he taught the last 2 lectures of OS was already not good and what happened today is just another confirmation.

Brain Saturated
Brain Saturation Level: Highest in my entire lifetime.
I never had an exam paper that difficult as my today's calculus paper. Sometimes I wonder is this paper trying to test one's ability to solve calculus questions or one's ability to take the 2 hours ultimate stress. Compared to the previous 2 semesters' past years' papers, this is the hardest! Now I just got to pray that other people will be like me, almost everyone questions also having difficulties.
