I had wanted one since I was in JC. And I had wanted to buy it for myself as a 21st birthday gift.
But it’s $170+.
Why does a bag cost so much? It’s just a bag! I like the red one!!!! Too ex. I’d rather spend the same amount of money to get 3 bags. Or maybe 6. Or more. Blah.

This was what was in the NUSSU goodie bag. Was even worse than last sem’s. And the number of people queuing for it was crazy. The queue snaked to the ADM building, where the ATM was. Siao! And lucky I was auntie enough to be at the centre of the queue. And the queue formed way before they started distributing the bags. (Why couldn’t they start the distribution earlier and not you look at me, I look at you.) Those people were weird. They prefer waiting for the clock to strike 12 then start to distribute the bags, even when the queue was ridiculously long already.
Some people were really too much. I saw a guy holding on to 5 matric cards!! He helped his friends queue for the bags and took the bags on their behalf! That’s really unfair to those in the queue! And the organisers shouldn’t have allowed people to collect the goodie bags on their friends’ behalf. And I see many people doing this lor! There was a group of 4 friends, who took like 12 bags!! UNFAIR! UNFAIR to those who queued. And even the organisers didn’t stop them! That was really poor management. AndAndAnd there was a group of people who waited at the front of the queue, and told people in the queue to take the bags for them, claiming that they had lessons and couldn’t wait, and the queue is freaking long. Good excuse.

My lousy phone. The trackpad and the centre button couldn’t work. And I sent it for repair. The person told me it would be ready within 3-5 working days. And so I waited. I thought my U700 was a good phone. Afterall, it’s cool and thin and pretty(quite). I sent my phone in last Saturday. Fine. 5 working days meant that monday was the fifth one. And the person told me I’d receive an sms once my phone is ready for collection. (Why sms only??!!)
Ok, nevermind. I called on monday to ask about my phone. The customer service person mumbled something like “not ready yet”, but I didn’t quite catch what she mumbled exactly. And she said she’ll get Plaza Singapura (where I sent in my phone) to call me. I waited the whole day. But got no call.
I just called again. This time it was another person who answered the call. He was much nicer.
I gave him my bill number and he went to retrieve the info.
Him: What did you do to your phone?
Me: ????? don’t know???
Him: It seems like there’s some corrosion in the phone.
Me: ??>!?>@#**&#^&% Why??!!! Okay…. Then?
Him: And there’s a quotation of $300+.
Me: ?@#*&^&%$#()*( It’s still on warranty… And no one informed me about the $300!!!
Him: Hmm… When did you buy the phone?
Me: March…
Him: Hmm… March 2008. (he saw my records -_-”)
Him: Tell you what, I’ll check with them (whoever ‘them’ refers to) and get back to you as soon as possible.
Me: Ok, thanks.
Wow, a phone which costs less than $200 needs $300+ for repairs??!! And how come I wasn’t informed of the charges? No one told me I had to pay an exorbitant $300 for phone repairs. And if I didn’t call them up, and this guy didn’t answer my call, I would still be waiting for them to sms me to tell me to collect my phone. Grr… They should have told me about the $300+ once they got the quotations! My guess is that my phone is still sitting at their repair centre and waiting for my $300 before they start repairing my phone. And no one called to tell me that!!! Great. Customer service huh?

He really gets on my nerves.
He emailed me this: “try not to delete any section anymore as we have just reach the minimum word allowed by a little after excluding the cover,contents and references.” (I copied this from the email word for word)
It seemed like MY fault that the words were not enough and that MY fault that I deleted some words in the essay. HELLO???!! True, he churned out a lot of words just so we could hit the minimum word requirement. But the words he used are incorrect!!! And his engrish is even worse than mine! KNS!
He uses this kind of statements: “As time passes by over many years, ” Lidat don’t need to edit meh? He thinks use as many words as possible will be good. Siao ah! He does this kind of things surely I have to remove some words mah! My fault meh? His engrish lousy mah…. KNSKNSKNSKNSKNS. Can’t stand him.
One more: “ The nearer the object is to the black hole, the stronger the spinning effect is. ” Ah.. See, I have to remove the last “is” le mah… Surely I edit liao the word count will be less lah! Your engrish leh…. Idiot….
Another one: “Eventually, this outward force will give its way to the inward force of gravity and the star collapses.”
Now, is it MY fault that I removed so many words so that the word count decreases? Grr…
He lidat hai bu yong jin leh…
He say I save the essay in .docx then he cannot open. So difficult meh? Just need to install sth to make HIS version of word compatible with MY essay. And he thinks I like saving it in .docx. it’s because HE stupidly could not use some equation editor to write his equations and wants ME to help him write. And I couldn’t get my equation editor to work if it’s in .doc format lah! It’s not like I like to wei nan others by saving in .docx format. I set my default to save as .doc lor! KNSKNSKNSKNSKNS again.
He says this leh: “Also don’t save the file in .docx as not many have this new version of microsoft word installed.”
I didn’t know there’s a difference between these 3 words except for the spelling and pronunciation. Lol… Until my soci lecturer emphasized that there IS a difference. And sociologists want to differentiate the 3 words -_-”
Sex has got to do with the biological things in a person, and the physical stuffs. Sex: male, female.
Male - broader shoulder frame, more muscles, more hair etc…
Gender is something which differs across societies and cultures. It is the something which societies use to differentiate between the males and females. Gender: masculine, feminine. In most societies, females are supposed to be feminine, and males, masculine.
Sexuality is how one is attracted to the opposite sex or even to the same sex. I think it should be something like the physical attraction… Sexuality: heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual.
There is the need to distiguish between these 3 as, for example, males do not necessarily need to be masculine and do not necessarily need to be attracted to females. Men who walk like women do not necessarily need to be gay. Something like that ba…
I think sociology is fun also lor… Comparing to maths, which is ZZZZZZZZZZ….
When is maths ever used when people talk about real life examples????!!! 1+1=2? Integration? Bleh!
//The above on sex, gender, sexuality might not be right. It’s written according to what I understand. And I usually understand the wrong things. -_-
I have never felt good being in uni. Those in army now, and going to uni in a couple of years, should really stop saying the army is the worst thing that can happen. Try uni.
I think I may have depression. I always feel unhappy when I think about school and schoolwork and tests and exams and assignments. Dunno lah!
I just got back my soci test paper. I think it’s not that bad. B. (AND CONGRATS TO PS AND SERENE FOR GETTING BETTER GRADES THAN MINE!! haha ) I didn’t study alot on that topic which I wrote on, and thought I’d really fail. Whatever the grade is, I’ll do better in the finals. It’s a MUST. I cannot score lousily in the finals, given my essay-writing prowess. My essays always turn out to be good in the final exam. So far. I really think I write better essays than I do maths problems. But I don’t like humanities. Whatever… I’m now doing maths and I won’t think about other things.
BTH Posted on October 29th, 2008 at 2:11 pm by Si Hui
I really buay tahan that guy. Sure, he’s hardworking, and can churn out 2500+ words in 3 days, but the quality sucks! Why need footnotes when we already have the references page liao. And it’ll be the same in the references page! What a waste of MY time. And his sentence struturing seriously got problems lor. Got green underline showing some sentence error he also never see, never correct. BTH! I don’t want to work with him ever again. And his references he showed me are all internet urls!!! Never use book to refer already forget it liao. Now he give me a list of urls as his references. He thinks he’s still in primary school ah? Grr…
And he asked me to follow HIS format for the essay. And seriously, I think it’s ugly. It’s just a few bolds here and there to indicate a new heading/subheading. Just make use of Word’s heading/subheading options lah.. No harm making the essay look pretty right? Grr… And he mainly refers to that one book only. Might as well just use that book and rewrite everything… I really bth lor… I don’t want to talk to him lor… Idiot waste my time…
EXAMPLE:
“For this we need to understand what do we mean by tidal gravity.”
What do you mean???!! And he uses this type of sentencing many times lor. He thinks lidat v sei or what… WRONG PHRASING LAH!!! And got people still, at this age, and in NUS, write “black hole grow” meh???? GROWS MAH!!!! KNS…
Hello??!!! This is the term assignment which carries 50% of the total grades leh… And his language is like that… Though I’d rather he writes out everything and I edit… I cannot seem to write out black hole stuffs BUT STILL!!! I cannot tolerate this kind of english lor… And he seriously is not one good team mate. He’s better off doing things alone. The way he handles projects pisses me off. I must’ve been blind to agree to work with him for my 50%. I’m an idiot myself.
Now I really can understand how the two gals felt when they got bad project mates. I had been blessed with nice people for project work the last 2 semesters. And this is the first time I know how some people can be so bad and why people wouldn’t want to do projects. Ah. Whatever. I’d better get on to writing my 5000 words essay. Blah. I’ll steer clear of him next semester onwards. I’ll take the minimal number of same modules with him. I will. I won’t agree to taking same modules with him, when the modules are non-maths modules. Grr. Shit him.
[Another thing]
Now he wants me to add in the references for him!!! Like I said, those URLs he gave lor… He wants ME to put in nicely into the ref. NO WAY! He can do it himself. I already told him to do it the way I wanted before we start writing. And he said the ref can wait till the end. Eat shit lah!
And then he wants me to write his equations for him using the equation editor!!!! I’d told him ytd to use the equation editor to put in the equations den he said ok later. Then now he sms me want me do for him!!! HELLO!!!??? At least I took the effort to find the equation editor and make it appear on my microsoft word! AND I haven’t used that before lah! He made no effort to try!!! IDIOT IDIOT IDIOT. KNS! I don’t care. He do his own things. Leave me alone. And the most I’ll do is to make the essay look nicer. At least the headings make them nicer. Idiot. I bth him liao. No more friends. After what er xin thing he did to my female friend. I’ll talk about that next time.

#1:
I’m not one to call people bitch, but this woman from my tutorial class really pisses me off.
This woman, M, always sits with her friend, S, at the corner seats. And M usually comes earlier and “chopes” a seat for S. Then last tuesday, M came a bit later, and some other girl, A, has taken her “usual” seat. She had to sit somewhere else. Then when S came, M was complaining to S about the girl who took their “usual” seats. But S was nonchalant.
Nothing wrong with people sitting at your “usual” seat, I think. It’s just an hour of tutorial and no need for discussions, and her “usual” seat wasn’t even in a good direction in relation to the whiteboard. You don’t have your name written at the seat, and it’s first come first served. M should just blame herself for not arriving at the tutorial room earlier than the other girl.
Then when the tutor was asking the class which question we’d like him to go through, A responded. She said Q3e. But there’s no Q3e on the tutorial, and so the tutor thought she meant Q3. So he started to do the question on the board. Then A realised the mistake and said again, “Oh, I meant Q2e.”
But the bitchy M sniggered! So funny meh? And her friend S didn’t even look at her. And M was the only one in the class with that sort of reaction. I really cannot stand her lor. She was sitting just in front of me, and I saw all her actions. -_-”
I like the red one!!!!
