[Old people are weird....Part II.] I was on 963, going to school. At Hillview, there's this woman....I think 60-thereabouts? Anyway, she dashed out from her seat in the bus stop to flag down the bus. About 2 seconds after doing that, she realised that it wasn't the bus she wanted to take, so she waved "no, wrong bus" to the driver. Now I'd say that that is all fine and dandy, no harm no foul. But what she did next, I just can't understand why for the life of me. She went back to her seat, lifted up her handbag, and used it to shield her face so that the bus driver cannot see her. I mean, seriously, what the fuck? Words to describe that has yet to be invented. ^^^ by Locksley @ 9:51 AM.

[Strange, weird, and huh...?] When I boarded the internal shuttle, this malay guy said "hey dude, how's it going?" to me. I have no idea who the hell he is. The ppl in Uni either study too much or too little. ^^^ by Locksley @ 6:51 PM.

[Hell on Earth....] The main event was cool....But the blading done by Jericho and Benoit was way too obvious. Benoit got up and all of a sudden you see a patch of blood when he just got up from, and a straight line cut across his forehead. Jericho's blade job was similar to Benoit's. Typical blade job, to be honest. You see them all the time. Now Randy Orton. He's something else. Triple H was getting ready to sling-shot him onto the chain wall of the elimination chamber, and you can see him getting out the razor from his wrist tape, unwrapping it quickly, and then hastily blading himself! In fact, when he crashed into the chain wall, his right hand was still holding on to the blade at his forehead! Okay...So he's only 24, but still. Triple H already slowed down the move a great deal, but Orton couldn't blade in time. There's this segment of the PPV where footage of the divas playing by the pool was shown. I'm actually quite turned off by the women in WWE. Don't get me wrong, if they can wrestle, I'm all for it. Like Lita and Trish, who pulled off a decent match with Lita blowing her knee out. But if I wanted to see women with fake boobs shake their booties around and flash their tits every which way, I'd go get porn. So as fate would have it, as the footage was shown, my father walked in. The footage lasted for about 5 mins. The rest of the PPV was all about men trying to destroy one another, and he had to walk in while they were showing the closest thing they had to porn. Needless to say, he thought I was watching porn in the middle of the night. That was not cool.... ^^^ by Locksley @ 2:35 AM.

[Over the shoulder...] Got a letter from Mindef today, telling me my NS unit and codewords. They also told me when my ops manning period would be. It'd be the end of this year, during school vacation, which sucks cause it means I can't get out of it. Just goes to show that you may get your pink IC back, but you can never take off your green uniform. Not for a while anyway. ^^^ by Locksley @ 8:50 PM.

[Morons....] Anyway....While trying to board 963, there's this moron who's trying to board even when it's obvious no one's gonna be able to get on anymore. But he wouldn't give up....He got on the first step of the front door and stood in the middle of the door. Yes....There's a handle bar in the middle. But this moron don't seem to treasure his nuts, so he carried on "riding" the handle bar. The door took 4 tries before it could completely close, as his stupid butt was in the way. This guy either alredy have children or doesn't want any. Come to think of it...It may be better for him not to reproduce. He and the guy in my earlier post who did not wash his hands are probably from the same "factory". ^^^ by Locksley @ 8:58 PM.

[Disgusting person...] I don't know why I'm blogging this. Guess I must be damn bored.... Oh...Went to SLS before coming to school. Bought a Kingston thumbdrive for $73. The listed capacity is 512MB, but I've got only 488MB to work with. Bought my first-ever bus stamp too. Actually, it's an electronic bus stamp as we're all using EZ-link cards now. I never bought a single one before in secondary school or Poly. ^^^ by Locksley @ 3:36 PM.

[Knock knock...] Lots of people in this module has some beef with regards to how the project is going to be conducted. Understandable, since the project takes up a huge percentage of our final grade. It is refreshing, to be honest....Back in Poly, if there are some unfair expectations of us, few people would speak up. Here in Uni, *everyone* speaks up in under such circumstances. Ok, maybe not *everyone*, but there's no lack of feedback. Debated with the lecturer over 15 mins on why we should not be doing the project in groups of 20 people (basically the whole tutorial group), but she simply did not see our point. Or did not want to see our point. I don't know. After 5 minutes I knew it was a hopeless case to argue, seeing how stubborn she was. You'd think that it's pretty easy to tell who's right and who's wrong when hundreds of people object to one person's idea. But no......That one person's still sticking to her guns. Typical, I guess. She's kinda old. Old people are stubborn. They need to be replaced. ^^^ by Locksley @ 9:58 PM.

[Dust bunnies...] Platoon gathering tonight at a bar or something. Don't think I'd attend, not with a running nose and Liverpool vs Man United on TV at the same time. Also, I need to catch up on my school work. Going drinking really wouldn't help with that I think. ^^^ by Locksley @ 3:52 PM.

[7 days and 7 nights of thunder....] Went out for dinner with some friends tonight. Had a lot of fun. When I got home, got a message on my ICQ telling me there's a secondary school gathering tonight as well. Oh well....Too bad. ^^^ by Locksley @ 1:09 AM.

[Breather...] So far, things are more or less what I expected. No real surprises so far. The format of lectures and school work is similar to poly. The sense of humour of the people there however, are quite misplaced. For example: Lecturer: Does everybody understand? Students in Uni: *Nods furiously, much like a primary school kid.* Students in Poly: *Total silence. Can hear pin drop. Understand or not also don't want to respond.* Lecturer: *Insert somewhat lame joke here.* Students in Uni: *Roars in laughter.* Students in Poly: Na bei....This guy tao-nao pai ah? Okay....I can't think of anything else right now. But another thing I've observed, is that while in poly, most students arrive late for lectures, in uni everyone arrives early. Yes, early! Kinda like the twilight zone.... ^^^ by Locksley @ 9:57 AM.

[In the beginning...] I hope it gets better soon. Real soon. ^^^ by Locksley @ 7:28 PM.

[Sweet dreams are made of this...] In my dream, I was in school. But for some reason, there were only 2 people in the class I was in. Me, and this guy from my poly days. He was damn happy about finding this box of Clorets in his locker (which was continued from my previous dream). Anyway to cut the long dream short, more people came in, then the tutor started giving out the tutorial questions. I don't know what module it was, but there were a lot of chinese "fill-in-the-blanks" in the tutorial questions. It was about then when I woke up. This reminds me of another recurring nightmare I had when I was in poly and NS. That dream was about me oversleeping and being late for my higher chinese exam. Seems like all my nightmares are about the chinese language. I wonder why. ^^^ by Locksley @ 10:55 AM.

[Luck of the draw...] Phew....Glad I got all my modules in the first round. Was kinda stressed towards the end when 2 of my modules suddenly filled up and closed bidding was taking place. Took a gamble, and looks like it paid off. Next to come...Tutorial bidding. One down, one to go. ^^^ by Locksley @ 11:49 PM.

[First post of 2005....] The Community Centre near my house is having a countdown party, and the MC was screaming "whoo hoo!" like a lunatic after the clock struck midnight. I can't really describe it for you, but believe me, he really sounded like a lunatic. Not a good omen for the year..... Ok...New Year's resolutions. I have only 2 this year. First one....Get in shape, and then stay in shape. Basically, to continue with my exercise regime even after school starts. Second one, to do well in school. That's all. Not too much to ask for, is it? ^^^ by Locksley @ 1:17 AM.
