EXAMS! ..and a little bit about swine flu
Thursday, June 18, 2009
The dreaded word. Have completed two exams but felt pretty shit about them.
Telecomm - the classic "the topics-I-focused-on-didn't-appear-on-the-exam-but-the-ones-deemed-unimportant-did" syndrome. haha. Didn't help as well when I was busing to go to the loo so in the end I left little bit early.
Computing - I would've mucked up on the teeney weeny details and cost me alot of marks. Sigh.
Upcoming : Signals, Analogue and Geo.
Anyway, Melbourne being such a vibrant, multicultural city, has its fair share of global travellers. However, I do not understand how we can become the swine flu capital of the world. Weird. There aren't any strict regulations about how things should be. Most of all, the public's attitude - some people are still sceptical about this mystical deadly flu and displays utter ignorance towards health warnings issue.
On the other end of the spectrum, there are couple of weirdos out there haha. If you cough/sneeze/whatever, they give you reaal dirty looks & run away. Gee man. Carry a hand sanitiser wherever you go and wear a mask.
Uni exams are still going on as scheduled. Only students displaying 'flu-like symptoms' are suppose to self-quarantine. Um..I have a runny nose, does that count? but I have been a total recluse over the past few weeks to study so will I possibly contracted the disease from the tiny air particles that float past my window? I'm not even sure how to actually protect myself against this disease.
Oh well, back to studies & coffee.

Mat Selamat's grand escapade

This supposedly top terrorist somehow escaped from his prison during a toilet break. The entire Singaporean army was mobilised for the manhunt.
Guess what? The Malaysians arrested him in Johor (a state which is way bigger than Singapore).
And here I thought we, Malaysians are always being seen as the lazy/incompetent people by our neighbour.
A-ha! In your face!

Mid semester
Monday, April 20, 2009
It is that time of the year again. Mid semester tests..time to reflect on what you have been doing for the first half of the semester.
I realised I should have studied from the beginning. Too late now.
I will now start to give it all my best.
頑張ります！

Health
1. Drink plenty of Water
2. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and have dinner like a beggar.
3. Eat more food that grows on trees and plants, rather than food manufactured in plants.
4. Live with the 3 E's - Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy.
5. Make time to practice yoga, meditation and prayer.
6. Play more games.
7. Read more books than you did in 2008.
8. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes every day.
9. Sleep for 7 hours.
10. Take a 10 - 30 minute walk everyday, and while you walk, smile.
Personality
1. Don't compare your lives with others. You have no idea what their life journey is all about.
2. Don't have negative thoughts on things you can't control. Invest your energy in the positive present moment.
3. Don't over do. Keep your limits.
4. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
6. Dream more while you are awake.
7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner with his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
12. Realise that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last you a lifetime.
13. Smile and laugh more.

Society
1. Call your family often.
2. Each day give something good to others.
3. Forgive everyone with everything.

6. What people think of you is none of your business.

Life
1. Do the right thing.
2. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

5. The best is yet to come.
6. When you wake up every morning, be grateful that you're still alive.
7. Your Inner Most is always happy, so be happy.
