Project Galore 

Hell.

That's what this week has been. Most of it, anyway.

First, Monday was the big day for the IRDD project. My group got to present within the last 20 minutes of the tutorial. Tutor was laughing through our resort presentation because our resort had quite a lot of wacky ideas.

Tuesday was quite fine, though. Nothing much.

Wednesday was horrible because of Air-con. For more details, see Clar's blog(under my links).

Then, I rushed through FMF on Wednesday night. Had help with Excel from Mum, Thanks Mum! Then rushed through the report late at night and finally finished everything up on Thursday afternoon. Managed to hand up the project.

Friday was fine, finished up the crazy Air-con Project and went to meet my sis at parkway. Shopped around (Yes I shop. Rarely, though.) and finally went for training. Training was quite alright.

Jes and Mel are worried about their grading. I don't know what else to say. They're walking the fine line. But good luck to the both of you anyway. Do well on the 7th of July!

And I realised something earlier this year. This year's 7th night of July is gonna be a special one. Since the official Tanabata parade in Japan starts at 7.07pm, it'll be a heck lot of 7s in the time and date. 7.07pm 07/07/07.

But it's something probably only people like me bother to mention.

And I'm very tired.

Goodnight.

It's human to be sian. 

Therefore I am 100-percent human right now.

IRDD project coming along fine, with our group in the research stage. Resort location is along the coast of Lake Coatepeque, in Santa Ana, El Salvador. Go search the web and tell me what you think.

Past week's been absolutely boring. No violin lessons, no outings, not one recreational day. It's been pure project and slacking and reading the 5 books I borrowed from Bedok Library, of which 4 are Star Wars novels.

And everyone in J2 is beginning to gear up to prepare for their A levels. All except Tallie, that is. That girl started last year.

Anyway, starbucks hasn't been visited for quite a while now. And I think I'll be quite glad when my sis comes back and takes back the room I'm currently using. I'm bored at home.

I wanted to go out to starbucks alone to read today, but I figured it would be nonsensical. And there are barely 15 people online now. And it's the weekend.

Poly's restarting following week, same time as the MOE schools. And thank goodness, we finally get to use some software.

And I realise the past four paragraphs took up only two lines. How great. And this one too. I'm just very bored.

Have a good day everyone.

HAHAH I just read my sis's blog and it was so funny I just had to kope it. Sorry for koping, Jie!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term exam. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well...

Here is the "Bonus Question" on the exam: "Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?"Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different Religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature andpressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa (a girlfriend of mine during my Freshman year) that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.

The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A."

Damn funny la.

Been a long time since I blogged... 

Since... Last Tuesday, actually. hahah. Not that long after all. Just seems so.

Anyway, nothing much happened last week, apart from the exciting concerts I went to, including my own.

First there was the VJC String Ensemble Concert. So nice I tell you, or maybe it's just my fascination for symphony orchestras. But soooo irritating at the same time. Why? Because the timpanist for Superman March and Tchaikovsky's 5th was TUNING thoughout the entire song. Superman sounded like he was flying past a temple man. Like, *!FANFARE!* dong dong dong dong.... dong.. dong... So irritating man. Learn some etiquette please.

But anyway, apart from that irritating factor, the concert was really good. The symphony was well brought out, albeit with slight balance problems. And there were too many horns. Seriously. Even the LSO doesn't have 5 please.

Okay, enough ranting.

And Val called me on Friday night to deliver some shocking news. But now it's not so shocking anymore. haha.

Sat was my Concert, which went quite well. A fellow student's dad patted me on the shoulder and said "good job". And after that I went to the National Lib to wait for Val the Late to turn up. Then we had dinner at Yoshi and went to buy the super-huge flowers for doris, then we rushed to SCH for SYCO's concert. Cool man the concert. Very nice. I like the last two songs. VERY MODERN and chic. Not like the traditional Wong Fei Hong era songs every school CO plays.

Sun was spent with Val, Cindy and LiZhen at pasir ris library. Mugging. I knew from the start I couldn't mug longer than half and hour. So it was half and hour mug, 20 minute break, half and hour mug, 20 minute break, kind of thing.

Then everyone went home for dinner cos no one could stay out.

Monday? Yesterday, stayed at home the whole morning till afternoon, practicing and studying, on and off, until Ansley called me to go down earlier to "help out". So I changed and did my hair(must mention, rare moment in my life) and dad fetched me down to The Changi Village Hotel for Band Dinner 07: The Red Carpet. hahah It was very nice, fun and all, seeing my section again, and the food. Oh my gosh THE FOOOD. So wondrumdous and gobblicious(read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory if you don't understand this).

Anyway, it was fun. Thanks to Ansley's dad who fetched us back.

Today, Tuesday, was good. Went to school for IRDD exam, did averagely fine. Stayed back with Clar in the ENG canteen to ponder over FMF notes. Then I left to meet Val at Starbucks! hahaha Most Visited Place on Earth, outside School and my home. hahaha.

We studied(did we?) for about an hour, then I taught Val how to fold a rose(which she forgot in the end) and we played hangman. And the funny thing is, we could guess some of our answers from the pure blanks! hahaha like she said the category was "celebrity" and I counted the blanks and knew straightaway who she meant. But I still lost la, couldn't guess two of her hangman blanks.

Well, after all that we left Starbucks cos Val was meeting her mum for dinner(at HEI SUSHI summore) and I was meeting my family for dinner(for tapao-ed food at home with plastic cutlery). hahahahah. See the difference?

Well, it's the next morning now. I don't know what to write for Wednesday.

Sleep! Goodnight.
