animal ads

This is an Advert for Orangina. A citrus acidic drink which I enjoyed when not having gastric pains.

What I dont understand abt this ad is that, why is the animals all frolicking with different species. This aint a beer/liquor ad and it makes totally no sense whatsoever.

Any comments my dear copywriters buds?

I am legend

BLM city updates

Thanks all who came to BLM City. My population is currently at 13 people. Almost 1 new inhabitat per day....

Which makes me wonder, if that person is me. Anyhow I hope to build skyscraper one day.

Merry Christmas

Dear cyber stalkers,

I wish you the pleasant day of rest and fun with your loved ones in this Festive Event.

Happy Holidays.

threadless late

dear all threadless fans whom have placed their orders thru me.

They apparently have been shipped since 15 Dec but have no idea why the delivery has yet to arrive. My only guess is that this is the crunch period and even reputed company such as UPS might face with a slight delay.





Which brings me to an earlier incident. When we jointly place an order in Mid Nov, I had blind faith in Vpost and decided to try shipping through them in hope that it would get us some savings. Well the shipment through to the US address was cheap and fast indeed. But I would have to hand this to threadless and UPS efficient.

However after the parcel arrived there, it was the start of hell. They took delivery of the item and ransack it. After which they attempted to stick everything back in the box with horrible repackaging conditions. And only after this decided its time to deliver.



I waited and waited and was left frustrated that it could take 3 weeks (they promise up to 8 days) for the items to arrive. And thats after 2 phonecalls.

When they finally arrived (on Monday) with the horrible state. I was pissed off and call vpost immediately. They customer service officer was stunned and could not assist me. I was then referred to someone one. She offered her apologies and would be looking into the matter.



I am not seeking into any compensation but merely a good explanation why I had paid good money (the amount ends up slightly more ex) and yet I gotten a later shipment on top of a damaged parcel. It makes me wonder what would have happen had this not been a bunch of tees. I guess I wont know.

But what I do know is that I dont trust vpost no more.

I didnt wanted to post something as such. But having waited a few days for vpost to response, my only guess is that they probably wont. So my readers out there, please avoid vpost as much as you can. You will curse and swear.

Anyhow, I seek your patience in our last big order together (shipped by Threadless direct). It should arrive early next week. I do know some of these are Christmas gifts, hope they wont be too late for your distribution

Jingle bell

Christmas aint complete without Christmas carols. How I miss the times back in my scout days while I sang along with those pretty girl guides and bring joy to the less fortunate.

Strangely I din realise, Jingle bells sounds differently when played backwards

Need a suit

I would most definitely need to get myself a suit. Its gonna cost me a small bomb but well, its time I get one. And what a better time then the year end sales period.

Next year, I need to attend a commissioning parade, be my Bro best man and use it to cover the bat suit I had underneath. It better be worth it.

Congrats JY

Of all the bad news that has been going around recently.

I am very glad to hear that a good friend of mine has became a Father today. He and his wife have delivered a cute baby girl which I cant wait to spoil.

Junyao and Anna, All the best guys!!

Miss my fishies

I am sitting here wondering on the 3 weeks ahead.

From now till Jan, I would be back to my national duties. Yes back to picking leaves and cleaning the birds.

Thinking of this long time away, I cant help but miss my cubicle and of cos my babies.

They would be all alone and left to the prying hands of my eager colleagues. Aside from one whom I do trust, I am pretty sure the rest would attempt to feed them more than once a day.

I do hope, I wont have too much of a mess to clear up when I get back. Would you believe I am contemplating popping back on some weekends to take a look at them. Perhaps I would....

Anyway, I saw some fishes at a fish seller today. They have some baby sharks thingy that look cute. I am tempted to get some... and I would probably do.

Well in the meantime, I pondered if I should get these

Face value

What is the value of Face?

Has it come down to be more important for one to retain their reputation at the expense of their children happiness? Would other people stares and talking behind your back matters to you? Would you have rather listen to your children whom are the ones involve?

Or perhaps I am naive and gullible to answer these.

In 24 hrs, it would all be over. Run while you can I would say. But sadly "Fate" awaits.

This page would remain silent for the next few days.

Hard to work

Well I am mostly done with work.

Just hanging out in office and waiting for the time to leave. Its then I decided that I should probably watching some "whose line is it anyway" in this almost empty office.





Its then I notice that my laughter is making people realise I aint working. So glad my boss is overseas




Oh this would make a nice party game (or campfire game)

unhappy baker

Its always good to spend the afternoon away from work with a great pal of mine. Today we venture into a quiet spot of singapore, hidden away, for some coffee.

I spotted a bakery there, well not really a bakery.... Anyhow, I could tell the baker was not too keen on making christmasy items.

This is a good example.




And this is like 4 out of 5.



In other news I actually clear my room today. All my toys are neatly kept in a glass cabinet. And lock away from my nephews' hands.

Machine girl

This feels like Kill Bill, but its not.

I hope its a real movie and not a mash up fan flick. Cos it looks fun(ny)

flooded table again

I had thought the horrible tank leaking issue was over.

To think the surprise I gotten when I walked into my desk in the morning to see my table once again has pooled. My laptop was sitting nonchalant surrounded by the yellow water, refusing to turn on. I only glad that there is no important paper that is soaked.

And NOOooo, there is no pics of it becos I was busy bailing water out.

Anyhow, I did a CSI and investigate my tank. After all this is fairly new and I shldnt be expecting any leak (yet). In the end I managed to trace it to my new pump. And its bloodly my fault.

My new pump has a slight vibration which bugs me abit. After cutting a piece of gauze for my open wound finger, I tried to be smart and use the remainer as shock absorption material. And it works well.

Up until the time when the flowrate of the pump drops.....

The water ended up dribbling and sipping onto gauze and direct to the table. Grumbles

I am glad its not a leaky tank. Would have thought so had I not investigate. Well maybe I shld try out for CSI. Might be good to get a civil servant benefit and pay

Bouncing ball

ok this is a non work day...

but nevertheless, I hope you come to work on monday morning and play this addictive game

Make sure your boss aint looking, if he/she did. Tell them its addictive, they will understand. Better still, intro this to them

Break the rules

:)

New pump and burnt finger

I would first like to draw your attention to my brand new pump.



I got this baby (which is about twice the size of my old pump) has I accidentally broke the old pump while cleaning it. As you probably wont be able to see, the tube has a crack. Silly me.




And this new baby works wonders. It is able to pump 2 times faster, allowing my tank to circulate much better. I bet my fishes would all loose abit of weight now that they have to swim faster.




In an old news, this is the current state of my finger. Its looks like raw meat, smells like raw meat, I wonder if it would taste like...



Anyway, it has like 2-3 ulcer at the center and hurt when touch. A funny friend of mine ask if I had stick it up somewhere. Very funny Martin!

Win Some, Lose Some

In life we dont always win all the time. At times we hit a bad patch and the cycle continues endlessly it seem. Its good to know that when it drops low, your fortune could only get better afterwards.

Anyhow, I am still in pain over my steam cooked finger. Its been a few days of severe blistering till i decided to crack my knuckles and accident burst it yesterday. So now while typing this with the pain bugging me, i ponder on why i kept adding more words to this.

Anyhow, I adore Robbie and this is my favorite song of all time from him.



And yes he screw up the lyric.

Time passes by

Lately there are too many sad news. Most of which I really have no idea how to deal with it.

They have left me rather lost and though I have been through those similar roads myself, the pain felt was not easy to deal with.

Inky's dear elder brother has left us last saturday. My old friend from Uni, whom I worked closely with during my FYP has lost his dad on the same day as well. Time seem to have slip by so quickly and before you felt it, the moment has pass.

I urge those who are reading this to cherish the loved ones whom are around us at the moment. Even when if you see them everyday, make an effort to spend some bonding time with them. May it be over dinner or simply just hanging out in front of the noisy box. Its the presence of your company that matters.

To my 2 dearest friend whom lost their loved ones. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong and relearn to smile. We shall catchup soon.

A380

I was in changi north for a meeting. A brief one but nevertheless a meeting that requires my attention.

I met the French whom I have consider to be one of the nicest people I have ever met. Anyhow, as I sat with the window facing my back, I was interrupted by their manager who enthusiastically walk in.

He raised the blinds and said any minute now.

Its then I witness first hand of the jumbo jet arrival. It crosses the window and landed out of sight. The sight of an oversize plane is simply amazing. The aeronautical technology and investment to make this a reality never failed to surprise me. Its like a chicken can fly.

I must said that the French are proud of this. After all, Airbus is part owned by them :)

Now all I need is to plan on a trip to Aus on this European machine.

My sunday

Its always great to spend some time with a car craze friend of mine. He loves his Japanese machine and adore the endless modifications that can be done.

Its surprising to know that when I told him that I wanted to checkout the Audi R8, he gave me a blank look. Its almost like he was wondering what I was up to. Well I must admit, I am fascinated by the first Audi Supercar.



And indeed I was not disappointed. The eyes (headlights) of the car alone are to die for. It portray a vampire like character like no other. Clearly this car is a work of art and had replace the Lotus Elise (that I have been admiring) has the new dream car.

Now I just need to save 400K first.

Tank version???

Ok I kinda lost count on which version my fish tank.

Its official version 3.something

There is just too many things I have added from time to time that I have forgotten. And today, I bought more prawns once more and yaa some worms as well.

Was tempted to get a new plant but decided to wait a little.

Anyway, for those who wants to experience keeping fish but lazy to do anything else. Here is something you can try

Office Stock pile

I recently acquire some nasty but all so irresitable Wasabi crackers. My dear colleague has handed to me one pack and I am all so grateful to her. (PS. it has pass 3 mths. no longer calling her a newbie)

anyhow here is my stockpile in case of wall war

- milo packs
- davidoff coffee (these are fab)
- green tea
- kungfu chinese tea leaves
- unopened ribena since JFK party mid last year
- Preserved strawberries from China
- Campbell soups
- House of steam potatoes (wasabi crackers)

Now where did I placed my fish food stuffs

I felt so sad, cheated even

My dear CB doesnt read my blog no more.

Wonder why I post this, CB wont even see. *Cries*

4 more years

I recently been offered an extension to my contract.

The strange thing is that I had a whole year left and am surprise to get this extension so soon. It makes me a little wary about the whole situation. Are they intending to promote me or raise my paycheck for fear that I would be leaving soon.

In fact, I din care about this whole issue. I am pretty happy where I am now and to be frank, I believe I am the only person working here who has no idea how much salary I am drawing each month. Yep. I am that bochup.

So I view this whole contract extension with little anticipation but with a slight curiousity. I went up and met the manager. She show me the T&C. It pretty much look the same as before.

And yes there is no "additional benefits"

So anyhow, I put pen to paper and extend my stay here for 4 more years.

For those who wonder why I made such a moove. My gut feeling tells me that 2008 would be a bad year. So hang on to your jobs if you have one. And for those still looking for a dream job, my strong advise is to find an acceptable one soon. Before you have none at all.

sometime you wont know how much

One of my closest bud is in a little gf trouble. He has been sharing it with me and it does make me reflect back on myself and my past.

Relationship is a fragile state. A state where a slight movement will rock this boat and the rocking always intensified and it might lead to a eventual capsize. (ok I am getting too much influence from my Ship projects)

The thing is both parties had always assume that they are in a R/S, they expect the other to revolve their world around them. This was so kindly brought up by my Priest yesterday whom surely has never been married. But yet strangely his words enlighten me on what a outsider would see among 2 couples.

Anyway back to the first point. We all would ran into instances where we would get upset. It could be over something small. eg, the tone on the sms, the lack of smile in the morning. Or something not that small. eg, old pic of an ex lying somewhere hidden. And though this wouldnt normally start any fight on a normal sunny day, the anger is kept inside and not forgotten.

This ends up getting accumulated and in time to come, the fault finding would start. "Why you do this...", "Cant you be more...", "Must you always..." These would becoming the tsunami alert that a storm is brewing. Had the "opponent" relented and apologised for their actions. The tidal wave would end up looking like a splash from ECP. However, the moment the other half retaliate and protected themself, insisting they are of no fault (which is probably true). An endless fight would occur. Past issue that haunts them would be brought to support the argument that probably has no basis.

As Yoda said a Long time ago, "Fear leads to Anger, Anger leads to Hate, Hate leads to Suffering."

But still does mereing giving in in the first place, help salvage the situation. Well it does lessen the blow, but it doesnt remove any of the archive angers the parties are keeping. It would take a desire to communicate and to maintain this between both parties to put away all the baggages. There should be no fear to open a conversation. Even if its pertaining to a small issue. "Sweetie, I dont like your tone this morning....", "Ohh didnt realise I had a tone, sorry Sweetie. Lets have a nice evening to make up."

Anyhow, I think I been naggy and windy enough for this post. Perhaps I would write again but well I dont really like to (a)

kill my aircon

It has been a chilling few months.

Where I am sitted I have the fortune of 2 aircon ducts placed above me. One dedicated to blow to my desk while the other focus to blow my back. There is simply no running away from them.

I did a survey around and was amuse to find that no one was as fortunate as me. Perhaps I should take over Kimi nick as the Iceman. I definately have the cool factor and love to speed too.

Months earlier, I became the self proclaim hero. I climbed up onto my desk to tape a portion for the aircon duct that I share with my colleague. This portion has been blowing strongly onto her and her cough never seems to end.

This plan though work, backfire when it causes the remaining untape portion to funnel all the aircon onto me. Well I didnt know this at first. But slowly day after day, my goosebumps come up and I started to sneeze. My hot water direct from my kettle would stay hot no more than 5 mins (I aint kidding).

I even put on a jacket. Something I never do, even when I was in Aussie during the winter. Anyhow, I decide enough is enough. I cut out a longer strip of blank tape and climb up the peak once again. "Die you bloodly aircon die", as I thought.

The remaining exposed piece is sealed for good now. No more chills to bear as I type my email/report and even this post. And to celebrate, I made nice hot cup of coffee. Enjoying the lasting warmth as much as I can.

Well yes, the rest of the aircon duct in my level (and the rest of the building) would probably experience the funnel effect too. But who cares.

My companion in Bintan

People been asking whom I have to Lovely bintan with.... Must say my colleagues are super kpo

Anyway there is none other than Tracey.

She has been my companion for many months now and I cant imagine my nights without her. She has been there to cheer me up and make me smile.

This recent trip we ended up watching tennis alot. I enjoyed watching Nadal but sadly he lost to Federer again.... Well he has age on his side and shall to overtake Federer in time.

Anyway Sweetie, thanks for being there with me. Love you.

who works on friday

My dear buddy (now my colleague as well) has commented that no one works on friday

I cant help but agreed that that is very true. Indeed friday is a day of weekend anticipation. where the time you arrive in office, you are only waiting for the clock to hit 6.

And even when you have meetings, everyone from the supplier to the customer seems to be in a good mood.

Now does that mean Thurs is an anticipation for Friday :)

In other news, Threadless has been ordered and I have sore throat and 2 freaking ulcers. Stuck in a happy place and a bad mood at the same time.

Some Advice From Your Public Defender

I’m a lawyer, not your fairy godmother. I probably won’t find a loophole or technicality for you, so don’t be pissed off. I didn’t beat up your girlfriend, steal that car, rob that liquor store, sell that crystal meth, or rape that 13 year old. By the time we meet, much of your fate has been sealed, so don’t be too surprised by your limited options and that I’m the one telling you about them.

Don’t think you’ll improve my interest in your case by yelling at me, telling me I’m not doing anything for you, calling me a public pretender or complaining to my supervisor. This does not inspire me, it makes me hate you and want to work with you even less.

Working rules

1. If your boss keeps repeating the phrase "This is just for a little while," it’s safe to assume that this "temporary" assignment will be a part of your workload permanently.

2. The shorter the message, the more trouble that you’re in. "Call me as soon as you get in" is bad. "See me" is really bad.

3. Never trust anyone who uses exclamation points in email correspondence: "This is great! I really appreciate your working on getting this going! I look forward to working with you on this project!"

4. Every office has two women who sit together and hang out together, and can be perfectly defined as "The Two Biddies."

5. If Biddy #1 happens to be away from her desk, and you ask Biddy #2 if she knows where Biddy #1 might be, Biddy #2 will give you a hateful, menacing glare and hiss, "How should I know?"

6. There are a lot of idiots in your office, but the guy who recommends to coworkers that they read Who Moved My Cheese? is the most definitely office idiot #1.

7. Even if you’ve been told by numerous reliable sources, do not ever ask a coworker if she is pregnant. Wait until she tells you.

8. If you do make the mistake of asking this question to a woman that is not pregnant, don’t even try to apologize. Just keep your mouth shut and walk away. There is nothing you can say, not then or in the future, that will repair the relationship. This not-pregnant woman is going to hate you forever.

Girl of my dreams

A tale of online love inspired usually cynical New Yorkers this week to help a young man find the girl of his dreams after he spotted her on a crowded subway train.

For Web designer Patrick Moberg, 21, from Brooklyn, it was love at first sight when he locked eyes with a rosy-cheeked woman while riding in Manhattan on Sunday night. She was writing in her journal.

The train was so full that he lost her in the crowd when they both got off, so he set up a Web site dedicated to finding the mystery woman -- www.nygirlofmydreams.com.

Hi again mama

I was in a bad mood today. Din seem to understand why, till I met my mama once more.

Its All Saints Day today. A holiday to the Europeans perhaps but a day of obligation to me. I went to church with my family and straight after Mass ended, we went to find mama.

I could barely remember where she is. Its about 6 months since I last stood here and the feeling overwhelming came back to me.

My hands are held together and I pray as if I was talking to her. I told her that I miss her dearly, miss walking by her side, miss her so much.

I wish she could see me now. I wish she would be around. But alas I knew the time has passed.

Goodbye my dear Mama, thanks for being my pillar of strength.

Jokes jokes

It was getting a little crowded in Heaven, so God decided to change the admittance policy. The new law was that in order to get into Heaven, you had to have a really bad day on the day that you died. The policy would go into effect at noon the next day.

So the next day at 12:01 the first person came to the gates of Heaven. The Angel at the gate, remembering the new policy, promptly asked the man, "Before I let you in, I need you to tell me how your day was going when you died."

"No problem," the man said. "I came home to my 25th-floor apartment on my lunch hour and caught my wife having an affair. But her lover was nowhere in sight. I immediately began searching for him. My wife was half naked and yelling at me as I searched the entire apartment. Just as I was about to give up, I happened to glance out onto the balcony and noticed that there was a man hanging off the edge by his fingertips! The nerve of the guy!"

"So I ran out onto the balcony and stomped on his fingers until he fell to the ground. But wouldn't you know it, he landed in some trees and bushes that broke his fall and he didn't die. This ticked me off even more. In a rage, I went back inside to get the first heavy thing I could get my hands on to throw at him... which, oddly enough, happened to be the refrigerator. I unplugged it, pushed it out onto the balcony, and tipped it over the side. It plummeted 25 stories and crushed him! The excitement of the moment was so great that I had a heart attack and died almost instantly."

The Angel sat back and thought a moment. Technically, the guy did have a bad day, it was a crime of passion. So, the Angel announced, "OK, sir. Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven," and let him in.

A few seconds later the next guy came up. "Sir, before I can let you in, I need to hear about what your day was like when you died." "No problem. But you're not going to believe this. I was on the balcony of a 26th floor apartment where we were staying for a conference doing my daily exercises. I had been under a lot of pressure so I was really pushing hard to relieve my stress. I guess I got a little carried away, slipped, and accidentally fell over the side! Luckily, I was able to catch myself by the fingertips on the balcony below mine. But all of a sudden this crazy man comes running out of his apartment, starts cussing, and stomps on my fingers. Well, of course I fell, hit some trees and bushes at the bottom which broke my fall, so I didn't die right away. As I'm laying there face up on the ground, unable to move and in excruciating pain, I see this guy push his refrigerator of all things off the balcony. It falls the 25 floors and lands on top of me, killing me instantly."

The Angel is quietly laughing to himself as the guy finishes his story. "I could get used to this new policy," he thinks to himself. "Very well," the Angel announces. "Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven," and he lets him enter.

A few seconds later, another guy comes up to the gate. Straight in to it and eager to hear the guys story he says, "Sir, please tell me what it was like the day you died." He starts, "OK, picture this. I'm naked, inside a refrigerator..."

new desk

I did the impossible.
I spend the last 2 weeks clearing my desk and cubicle.

Before all this, my desk is a mess. I even wrote a silly poem about it.

This is the left side of my desk. Where the endless swimming of my babies keep me occupied and take my stress away. Just a note, whenever I am not around my ever helpful colleagues will help to feed them. So at times, they will eat like 5 meals a day.


Just somewhere behind them, I have pasted some corkboard on the wall to allow me to pin important stuffs. It helps me look busy too.


This is the right side. I have moved my compact desktop to the floor, bought a KVM switch and link my laptop to this LCD as well. With a simple tap of the scroll key, I can switch between 2 comps. The best part is that it allows me to keep all my internet/msn/emails on the LCD while I work on the lappie. Nice.


And behind my 2 computers, I paste a white board. I had wanted to use it for me to write reminder, but decided that i would leave it there for anyone who wants to leave me a note. cool right.


And this is what they look like from above.

5 new fishies

A dear colleague of mine made a passing comment. She said that now that my tank is bigger, it has too little fishies.

And off to the aquarium I went and gotten myself 2 tiger strips little critters. These new fishies are of an interesting personality. They swim up and down non stop. Kinda entertaining I might add.

On top of this, I have received 2 plain silver fishies and 1 Red girl (Gong Li). A total of 5 new fishies today.

So in my tank now....

9 Orangy danio
1 yellow sucker
2 tiger strips wanderers
2 silver fish
1 red fish

and lots of prawns.

A look back

Its interesting when an accidental click makes me look back at my blog entry. And you know why its interesting? Well I'm never the person who look back.

All events seem to happen in Oct. Which makes me wonder if its a good month for me at all.

I realised I started work 2 years ago on this day

I nearly die this day. Due to this event which I mention vaguely .

And I gotten my fishies on this day. And surprisingly, 7 of the original 8 orange fishies are still alive and well.

Oh and my blog is 3 years+ old now. scary! Happy anniversary I guess.

Taking a break

I am on leave tomorrow. Taking a much needed rest once again.

Hang in there guys!

Fishie stories

OK here is something I never expect.

I walked into office in the morning, to find the center of my desk flooded with yellowish water. The first thing I did was to look up and inspect if the ceiling is leaking. Seems fine, I tot.

Then I look at my kettle. Nope, wrong again. Then onto my bottle of water. Nope still full. And finally when I saw my fish tank which outsize all of these items combined, DAMNIT.

I grab my ancient lappie and found that it still work. Well to be honest I have never turn off this lappie for 2 weeks now and after sitting a few mm high above the water, it still kicking. I guess well, thats what happen when the military/govt buys stuffs.

Anyhow, my tank was not completely empty. In fact, its probably 2/3 full. Yes I am the optimist. So I assume the leak din start too long ago.

I grab whatever empty container I can find and separate my 9 orangey fishies and their yellow sucker into 1 old fish bowl and the plants, cherry prawns and yamatos into another container. The salvation is done.

However this is seriously distracting for work. The single thought in my mind reminds me to get a tank fast. So I measure the size of my old tank, its length is from my elbow to my wrist joint while the width is about 2/3 of that.

I popped down to the nearest trustworthy fishie place and look around for a suitable new home. Then a thought when to my head, might as well upgrade it since I am getting a new tank. And so I found one that is slightly longer in length and bought it straight away. This whole process is no more than 3 mins.

I carried it back to office and after loading it onto my desk, the amusement hit me. Although the area is only 15% larger and manageable, the height of this new tank is almost twice. In fact, it looks like a giant cube.

The torture then arrive when I tried to top up the tank with a 1.5 ltr container. I made like 7 trips to get it 3/4 full. You do the maths.

Anyway, I have set up everything nicely so far. Will take some pics tomorrow. Dont hold your breathe now.

good weekend

I think I had a good weekend. Hows yours?

Well I guess Oktoberfest on friday helps to jump start it

Davidoff

I used to love Davidoff cigars. Those Dominican Republic people can really make good cigars. Better than Cuban in my contexts.

Well anyway, cigars are my old craves. Lately I am more keen on Davidoff coffee. These are my new craze. The aroma, the texture, the aftertaste... well everything.



Go get yourself one. Dont wait

I miss camping

N Levels

Most of you would know that I came from the N levels. But not many of you would know that it was in fact the happiest time of my academic life.

Sad to say that when I saw the papers today and saw my school (which I wont name), I wasnt surprised to see the ranking. Well they kinda deserve this placing.

Over 10 years ago, I was among the best people I ever knew. My bunch of my classmates that is. We werent quite the hooligans which the general public see us. perhaps we are prankster but thats nothing more than a moment to laugh. But our batch were the brightest lot that my dear school has ever seen.

Our N levels were the highest recorded ever. A good majority of us made it through to the next level. But hey lets not be modest. A fair amount of us collect the maximum of 3 points. I would dare say its about 20% if not more. We are all very proud and happy with our achievements and we have our teachers who believed in us to thank for.

On that day when we are supposed to collect our grades, guess what our Principal was not around. In fact its our favorite Physic teacher who gave it to us. He kept it simple and joke with each of us as we collect our transcripts. Whereas our dear Principal had decided to take the day off.

Come to think of it, when there was a presentation of awards for all student in each level. The N level were conveniently left out. Well I guess she believes our grades aint on par and its not worth the trouble to hand out this award.

Anyway, as I mention we did quite well that year. As I recall we were the top 10 N stream students and was awarded by PM during a MOE ceremony. And yes our Principal happily collected this. After all this was the only award she ever received.

Part of the award was a sum of cash rewards. And till this day, we have not seen it. There was no treat for us nor was this pass on to the next batch. I guess its easy to forget.

Anyhow, my dear school never achieved much after this award. Perhaps in some ways I am glad they wont be. Its pointless to receive any more when you did something right and yet were never appreciated.

idea for single woman
