Bleh. I can't believe this. My IE is screwed up. On some webpages i try to load, it tells me "Internet Explorer cannot find the webpage" after only a split second. Real show of effort.

Then everytime i hit refresh it brings me to a blank page over and over again. Grrr.

---------------------------
Bleh. I can't believe this. I actually topped the class for bio section b. And i beat matthew.

---------------------------
Bleh. I can't believe this. There are only 4 more days left that i can call myself a sec 4 student.

Hey ho, subject combination selections begin on monday!

One question. How do we select subjects if our APRs are not released yet? AND my isp report hasn't been factored into my gpa as well. And there is also the chance that Captain Moderation will show up and save the day.

Can you see what i see?

Yesterday i brought a potato to class for aboslutely no reason at all, apart from the fact that the humble potato has earned itself the title of Most Random Vegetable.

First i put it on niuyi's table.

niuyi: 怎么我的桌上有个马零薯?

Words fail me.

Then i koped it back and passed it around class. Everyone signed their name on it. After chinese lesson we trooped to the staff room and called eddie out and gave him the potato. He promptly burst out laughing and said he was going home to eat it.

My life is now less average.
---------------------------------------------

Today marks the END of NUS-RI. And ISP.

No wait. ISP not over, must still give dr koh the stupid report. nvm.

During our presentation today in NUS, Dr Zhao thought we did exceptionally well despite all our stumbling and aaron's extremely fail inpromptu presentation. The reason being she thought we were doing stuff that was waay above our level and hence decided to ignore all the little errors.

I don't know whether to feel honored or ashamed about this.

Aaron had a very interesting sms conversation with mish today while on the bus. For full details head on to his blog.

Yahoo: i like to move it

Google wins hands down!

Today i went to watch Surrogates. Though it was a particularly crappy film (nowhere near max-payne-crappy) it did leave behind some deep impressions on me about the state of humanity.

The movie was about how people use robotic surrogate versions of themselves to go about their daily lives. These surrogates' outside appearance can be easily modified so it becomes extremely hard to tell how the surrogate operator actually looks like.

This brings to question of the various facades modern people put on everyday like masks. Even as students we do have a very shallow exterior that often hides our true personalities and intention. Do we really know who our friends are? Do they really know who you are?

Do YOU even know who you are?

The last scene where all the surrogates are remotely disabled and everyone on the streets just simultaneously collapses, while the fleshy Bruce Willis walks through the dead city was particularly thought provoking.

How do you intend to keep yourself human in a progressively inhuman world?

While counting change today, i have no idea how i instantly knew $2.25 is 1.5 squared.

What a pity such mathematical prowess did not exhibit itself during today maths paper. Good bye beautiful 3.6 GPA.

Tomorrow is bio paper, which i have most of my maths mugging time on (explains a lot, hey?). And i do not intend to fail it. Yet i still don't know the difference between a horizontal cell and an amacrine cell. Oh noes.

Can anyone define metabolism off the tips of his fingers? I sincerely doubt it. Neither can i.

After EOYs, i'm going to treat myself by splurging all the remaining cash in my wallet on the wierdest things i can find in art friend or bugis junction.
