Happy Birthday, agiu!

Yo, buddy! Happy birthday! May you have a wonderful year ahead! (Hmm.. what else to wish him, to greet him.. Too bad, I am a man with poor words :S)

Anyway, it was a wonderful night out yesterday. Had a movie with friend. We watched The Chronicle of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Along the way, we had fun - we laughed together, I laughed at her; funny things happened; sad things also happened. Still, it was a good memory to me. Hope it still stayed with me, before being overwritten by another experience with someone else :P

As usual, in the past few days, I am still searching for jobs. My friends, one by one, got their dream jobs, and here I am, back to square one. What would happen, if I am one of the 10% of the unemployed fresh graduate who really can't find a job? I know! I go back to my alma mater and applied for a cleaner's position! Surely, I won't stay unemployed anymore! =)
(This is one good use of positive thinking :P)

Over the past few days, I scoured the Internet (and as always, I am guided by the trusty StumbleUpon) to find tidbits for you. And here, I present to you - my findings:

Funny ads.. Just a joke, don't take it literally. (And please don't try it at home - feeding crocodiles)
Funny photos..
A picture paints a thousand words .. And this picture sure worths a thousand degree of celsius. Yet, I really admire their courage and bravery.
These are the roads I wont travel on. At least not in this lifetime.
Another cool photo of the nature at work. Just splendid.
Are they real? They look too beautiful to be real.
Cats!
Gates of Hell! I never would have guessed that Hell is such a pretty place. It's beyond any imaginable words. Unspoken beauty. ( A tell-tale sign of a corrupted soul :S)
These are not your typical everyday insects. Not only do they look scary, they are scary.. :S

Ever wondered how the little things that we encounter in our everyday life really behave in slow motion?
A rather lengthy video.. But where do they find the energy, time and resources to do this? Perhaps it's all about passion?
Look into this.. You are now under my hypnosis.. You will now believe that meng is a handsome guy. (Editor.menG: =.=' The author is nuts. Don't bother about him. Don't stare too long into the swf, you will get dizzy easily.)

Feeling creativity- dry? Try some tips from this website.
Blondes are not dumb. Wrong stereotyping :P
Wanna learn Photoshop?
Another website for learning Photoshop.
Camera hacks anyone? For Canon only.
A podcast for the guys on how to woo the gals.
Away from computer.. Unimaginable? Actually it would do wonders for you, at least I knew it would for me.
This is a rather peculiar motivational website. The content is good, though it was smeared with inappropriate languages. Under-aged kids will have to wait till you are old enough to read this!
Six-pack for the guys..
Trim your abs, the gals' way =) Gals do have an easier way to keep their abs lean..

This is a rather sad game.. Not recommended to anyone. Depressing and with no good endings (at least that is my conclusion for trying it twice la). ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
A place to for you to exhibit your artistic talents! Sky is the limit, or rather the functions are the limit.. Hehe.. Nevertheless, there is countless possibilities to mix and match =)

With this, I end my blog here.. Have been visiting my friend's blog. She put up a poll. Should I do the same? Hmm, better not. What would happen if noone ever vote for anything? Haha, do less one thing ,worry less one thing - that is my motto for tonight. For everyone else, have a good night sleep. Worries will get you nowhere but wrinkles on your forehead =)

Deadlines, Deadlines and more Deadlines!!

Life would be a slow-moving one, until I upped the stake. Moving out early when I am still jobless and haven't found any place to stay. Still waiting for news from the one company, for now. Still searching for new companies for interviews. And still looking for a new place to stay. Will I be able to accomplish all this before I move out? In roughly 3 weeks time? With positive thinking, I will! Hehe.. Always think positive!

Another happy thing that has happened just now was that I had a wonderful dinner with a gal. A dinner at one canteen and a drink at another. Haha.. Life could never been more wonderful!

And, since I'm so happy now.. let me share with you the many links I had acquired (and I really mean MANY :P)

A video of a man playing the keyboard.. His skills is not on the standard of a professional, but at least applaud him for having the courage to perform in front of a video =)
One way to learn Programming is by creating games =)

Another game you play on the website.. Sometimes it does get irritating :P
One more game for you to play.. Learning physics at the same time? I doubted it :P
Show ur arts online.. Draw, sketch, do whatever u want here!

It is a touching video of how inmates can be good persons.. and how the human-dog bonding exists and grows.. all in dogs behind bars.
Another touching collection about a mother.. About her job, and her sufferings.. And how she continues to fight on.. for her love for her child.

Do you really understand what is love? Hear it for yourself, the true meaning of love.. as given by experts.
Love quotes for guys to whisper into the ears of their love ones..
Love facts? Or is it just a bluff?
Wanna understand how women feel? Listen to their sighs..
Better still, interpret what is it that they really mean when they talk to you. the best replies are:
"Yes = No
No = No
Maybe = No " >> All they know is "No"! :S
Or "Are you listening to me!? = [Too late, you’re dead.] " -> If this ever happens, man, you REALLY are dead!
You can choose to believe it or choose to be ignorant.. What you choose will determine whether you are in bliss or at the mercy at the wrath of the women!

Wanna be rich? Then don't you ever do these!
10 things you can ever learn from a dog.. Lessons on life comes from various sources. It's up to us to find the meaning and be open to it.. Be open-minded and it will come to you.
Have you ever wish you can fly? Like him?

A meaningful picture on wealth and changes.. if only I understand what it means =.='
The art of Photoshop. What are we going to do without them? Hehe..
Wanna see a greedy squirrel? :P
Another photo to soothe the eyes.
A fun collection of photos.. For dog lovers..
Just for the guys.. and I really mean for the guys onli :P
Another collection of thought-revoking and creative photos..
Another collection of creative photos.. Where do they get those ideas?
Lovely cat.. I want that cat.. Or rather, I wanna be the cat! Why do I always see funny photos? Perhaps when good things are happening to me, and I'm happy - I'll start to notice happy things. So people, be happy and start to enjoy life. Then good things will keep on falling onto you!

This is a rather lengthy animation. U need to move the scroll a little and watch it till stop, then move it a little and watch it unfolds till it stops, and repeat again :S Perhaps there is a better way, which I dunno :P care to explain? But once u see it, its worth all e efforts u put in!

This is something what a guy wants in bed.. It is kinda obvious, isn't it? But remember the price you have to pay, guys!
This is what I want - R2D2 projector. Anyone wanna buy it for my Christmas present? It's not that expensive, just $2,500 and its US$ =)

That's all from me today! I'm in cloud 9 now.. Nothing will upset me because I am happy! =)

Another Interview..

Another interview today. I had a fright as I dilly-dally to prepare for my interview till I was almost late :S The travel only needs less than an hour but I quoted 1.5 hours (wonders who's time I'm using as a reference?).

The best thing that could ever happen to an interviewee is that he goes to the wrong place. That was what had happened to me. I went into the wrong building and kept on thinking why there weren't any people there =.='

Generally, the interview was a good one, I hope. The interviewer was kind and friendly. Though I still acted negatively to some questions. Well, inherently I am a negative person. Sigh..

A few days ago, a gal wanna ask me for dinner, but it didn't work out because I promised my friend. And so, I prmoised her for supper. Who knew I had stomachache after dinner and so, I forgot about the supper. And I thought she didn't wait for me for supper. Just realized she really DID wait for me! OMG!! I'm in deep trouble now...

Anyway, hope that limin will get well soon. And don't spread the fever bug to me!

Hereafter are the links to fascinating things that I found in the Internet:
Sah pei kow..
Cross your eyes and see the magic unfold upon you.
A nugget for you.
Ahh, the wonder of C Programming for the school kids..
Let's shout out our dress code!
Robotic jellyfish!
Castles or ruins?
Clocks - ONE and TWO.
April's Fool - though it's kinda late.. too late for this year!
Real or fake? Be amazed!
A must-have furniture for all cost conscious home-owner.
Something to play if you are bored. Be warned that the other party may produce obscene "arts".
Beards.. ahh, wonderful. Should I keep mine?
One of the funniest movie I had ever seen. Crappy, just like me. Or should I say just like my friends (you all know who you are :P)

Khailuen and bro in Singapore!

My friends came visit me on Friday and Saturday. Me, as the host, did the most unbelievable things. Firstly, being "proud" of my uni - I brought them to the library, lecture theatre and medical center. And being "proud" of Singapore - I even brought them to National Library in Bugis to take a nap :S Haha, guess you will know how good I am with the places here. At least we did go to Esplanade, Chinatown and Sentosa - those standard stuff. And me, being the host, was treated to lunch, teabreak and dinner by them - both in Singapore and Johore! :S

Although them coming here should be fun, some hiccups along the way spoilt the mood. It is a public holiday on Monday and the people hiked the prices for the bus fares, forcing my friends to take a 1130pm bus :S Anyway, hope they had fun in Singapore though I did a lousy job as a host.

And here are the videos and links, as usual, to my fellow readers - whoever you are =)

My Very First Job Interview

It was just yesterday. Woke up early for my interview. Wear my best formal clothes, polish my leather shoes.. Put on my perfume and make-up, and even put on a red lipstick =.=' (...) Okok, it was just a joke! Don't take it so seriously!

The interview started with a technical test first. My forte, which was programming, ended in the drain when I did a stupid and buggy algorithm. The ones that I studied the day before also ended in miserable situations as I didn't know how to interpret the last connection. Weirdly, the ones I didn't read, because of too many diagrams.. I got it correct.. Thru' sheer luck :S

The interview itself didn't go well. Well, just blame on my lack of preparation. And also because I saved the few pennies from not attending those interview workshop. Hope I learnt my lessons well. To top it off, it rained cats and dogs and I was soaked from head to toes. Seriously, the cats and dogs keep dropping on me! @.@ (Okok, another lame joke from me.. But I really soaked to my spine.)

Kokheng showed me his resume and made me realize that mine still need a lot of improvement. Well, MyResume #2002 will commence later. Sigh... More work to do, when there are still no signs of interviews.

Anyway, links for you before you all doze off so early in the evening =)

One tip for Photoshop.
Nice graphics.

A joke about the political parties.
OMG! Fish!
Desktop Tower Game!!
All about martial arts!

Wanna consider these as your homes?
Cool laboratories.. or so I thought..

Guys, don't buy these for your gfs.
Gals, don't bring ur bfs to these places.

Tips for working adults. Spend your time wisely.
Manage your credit! But then again, due to my limited knowledge, I don't understand what is written. Follow the advice on your own discretion and risk.

Failed Project!

There was a project I took since the end of my First Year in my uni. It was a soft skill project, mainly on management and communication. The result was a total failure! The moderator asked me, "What is your future work?" How could there be a future work when the project ended in total failure and there wasn't any need or purpose to continue it? The moderator even interrogated me for the objectives of the project. The moderator scolded me for not knowing the purpose of the project.

I had thought there was a continuation for this project, but then again - I'm just tired of all this project stuff. Unrelated to my uni studies, something I picked up for my activities outside school life. I'm a free man - project no more! =)


On a different note, my friend said she brought me good luck because I got a call for interview when I was travelling on MRT with her. At first, I thought the same too. But after I read the job description carefully, was it really good luck? It was all about EE2002 and EE3003! :S I'm dead meat this time. Had to bug Cheong to teach me everything about EE3003. Anyway, I'll just do my best and see how it goes. No need to sweat over it =) (That's the advice given by all my friends and family.)

And now, links for all of you out there!
A workout regime for gals who wanna look great for their weddings =)

Wonderful photos..
One soothing picture. It's all about peace and serenity.
Another wonderful place for photos.. Inspirational and touching. Just mind that it takes forever to load, because there are more than 50K photos! :S

I hope all the pretty gals won't do this to me =)
A website that guys should read.. Understand the gals' emotion and psychology.

I belong to this society..
I hope to have these as my home decors :P
Anyone can help me to decipher what this means?
Hmm, what does this countdown lead to?
This is what a $3K camera can do. Too bad it's way too expensive for me.
Technology! What are we going to do without them?

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there! Today is a day to remember and cherish the love and sacrifices that all the mothers have poured to us, all this time. As a radio DI aptly put it - everyday is a Mother's Day!

On another note, khailuen and his brother are going to come to Singapore this Friday. You can expect all hell breaks free when they are in Singapore. Haha, just kidding. Nothing much would ever happen, especially when I am the tour guide. Where should I bring them to? Hmm, any suggestions from you guys?

I watched a documentary called "Weird Nature - Puzzling Partners". It told of unimaginable partners. How cats and mice can live together. How dogs and foxes can play together if they are brought up since young. This story.. this story, I mentioned to only one friend of mine. She didn't even understand it when I told her. What I really wanted to say was, with two people from very different background - one normal, another siao; one cruel, another kind; one selfish, another selfless.. Could there really be friendship between them?

Hmmm... Something to ponder about. Anyway, Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there, especially to Madam Chen, who didn't even reply my sms :S In the meantime, I should start preparing my friends' visit to Singapore this Friday..

Sad Sad Me

Attended my two meimeis' presentations today. Though huihui's moderator shot her alot of insane questions, she kept her cool and managed to answer the questions. While another meimei had it smooth sailing, or so I thought. Having said that, after their presentations, they didn't care about their big bro and went on celebrating. Sigh.. Such ungrateful sisters.. I'm so fed up liao.. Better find myself other kawaii little sisters who really care about me :P

To make things worse, another meimei demanded me NOT to attend her presentation yesterday or else she says "NO MORE friendship!" :S Though wanted to see her after her presentation, she left too early. Must be celebrating it with her bf.. Another classical case of "A little too late".

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

To make myself happier, I should focus on kawaii little sisters. Preferably as cute as Rainie here:



Or even as wonderful as Cai Chun Jia here:




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

A youtube intro-ed by my YCF instructor, wenhui. Nice video.




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


Well, time to sweet dream... Dream of...

It's finally over!

It's finally over - officially, that is.. Presented my FYP to my supervisor and my moderator. Won't say it as excellent as I get tongue-tied, mixed up the grammar and got the facts wrong @.@ Anyway, it's all over. With some editing on the reports, there is nothing left for me to do on my study life. Moving on to working life then.

Had a wonderful dinner and board games with my EnS group mates at Mind's Cafe. Though it was just a short acquintance among us - this semester, 5 official tutorials, several unofficial meetings for assignments and one McD outing for discussing the past year paper's - we bonded like close friends. Having said that, the questions like "How many siblings you have?" made it seemed like we knew nothing of each other. Haha... The food that I ordered was an extra large portion. With another extra large drink, I thought I was going to get sick @.@ Anyway, it was great spending time with them - playing those silly board games. Had so much fun till I missed the last bus back to my uni. Well, it was a great experience too - my first time walking back to my uni, alone and after midnight. A stroll that took one hour. Had always wanted to do that -walking back at midnight, but never had the chance =)

Well then, enough of all the good news (at least for me), let's get to some links that you are all waiting for!
A typical stress test.
A newspaper cutting on idiots at workplace - a cause of rising high blood pressure cases!
Volcano!! Or is it?
Animation + drawing. Symmetrical arts.
Learning your grammars - UK's and USA's English.
For the inventors out there..
Evolution of life...
I want those keyboards!!

Time to start preparing my FYP report and then start to enjoy my life!

Chinese Style Buffet

Yesterday was somehow the most fruitful day that I had since last week or so, after my final paper. In the morning I did my FYP slides, evening applied some jobs and at night, dinner at a restaurant near City Hall MRT.

FYP slides.. FYP presentation. Till now also not much progress. Sigh, didn't even rehearse on what to say. Didn't even know what to say. This preparation is the worse. The least, as compared to HRM, EnS, Prof Comm. The best one I did was EnS, and that was when the tutor was lenient. Sigh.. Gloomy Monday tomorrow.

Finally, took the effort to find some jobs. Till date, how many jobs had I applied? One.. two.. three.. four.. five.. six.. seven.. seven.. seven.. SEVEN??! @.@ When my teacher at my alma mater said I must find average 60 jobs =='

Dinner near City Hall MRT was a mixed. The food there was kinda bland, though some dishes unexpected salty (must be them put a lot of salt to cover the blandness). The first two hours were an ordeal. The dishes were slow, and we waited impatiently. Frustrated, we ticked the food extra extra. Then towards 9pm, when the crowds were dispersed, we were bombarded with all our dishes at one go. Imagine having 3 different types of desserts at one time! @.@
At first, we wanna leave becoz of the lack of food. Now, we can't wait to leave because there were too much food and that there were more that haven't been served. Recommended for next time? Maybe, but definitely cross out the "teeth vegetable" (Actually, it's called beansprout. Sorry for my lack of vocabulary :P Have to Image Google it for the name. hehe.. Anyway, beansprout reminded me of Allen of the DGrayman anime.. hehe..)

That's all for now. Wanna catch some wink again before continuing my FYP slides. Nitez.

Back to Sg

Took a rather long journey back to Singapore. Nothing spectacular really happened, except that a fight almost broke out right next to me. Luckily nothing happened, or else it would scar my face.

Had a rather late lunch (3pm) and subsequently a rather late dinner at 9pm. Luckily my hostel's canteen was still open or else, I would have to walk all the way to "Extension". To make things worse, leeching tempted me with her "delicious" 4 dishes @.@

The night was spent making a birthday present for hooiyee and also watching anime. Happy be-lated birthday! Hope you won't mind me greeting you this late =)


Finally, here are the links for you guys out there.. links that I promised in my previous blog..

Well, guess that's all for tonight. Sleep tight and have a sweet dream. While I had some serious thinking to do. About the previous post? Nah.. It's about which anime to watch these few days!!! =)
