What!!!! Fail English Test

Now it has occured to me that one of the most unbelievable failures of my life would be to fail an English Test. I do not know why had this predicament suddenly happen to me and it has some pretty serious repercussions and that is... to attend an English Class which is starting next week on Monday at 10.30am in uni which could have been used to do other things which would be more beneficial to me instead. As preposterous as this may sound, I still have to grapple with the situation, and the reason for this failure still eludes me. Probably there will be a discussion on this but I DON'T CARE... YOU STUPID ASSHOLES HOW THE SHIT COULD YOU FAIL MY PAPER!!

SO you see I have my vulgar site too and it doesn't surface until there is a provoking stimulus.


2 Days before.....

I was walking across IMU on the ground floor and what I had in mind was to xerox my PBL assignment. And then it occured to me that were so many people at the xerox room. So I waited and queued up and the line is considerably long judging by the time of the day and it's a FRIDAY.... I mean c'mon. Anyway, I didn't care much about it so I waited..

Few minutes later...

Jian Ern came in and was mentioning that he was one of the ones who failed and had to attend English Classes. So I jumped into the conversation and the dialogue goes like this..

Jian Ern: A lot of people kena you know...I think got about 30 something
Me: Wah...so many ah..Who else kena?? ( However, I know I wouldn't fail so I continued the discussion.)

Jian Ern: Er.... Yeang wee, Gordon, Rahul also kena and also David Lim
Me: Then I said wahhhh...y like dat wan?? How come they both kena one ( Still I know I wouldn't fail it but I continued.)

Jian Ern: YA lor I also dunno why..


Then Later...

Hendrick: Me also kena la... Crappy man
Me: Really..
Hendrick: Ya la...eh you also kena. You're Bryan Wong rite??
Me: Ya...Serious??? ( Now with much apprehension, I tried to continue the conversation but I still couldn't believe him.)
Jian Ern: Eh...ya I think I saw your name up on the list..


I was like OH shit...... And judging from the demeanour of both of them, I was certain they had not devise a ploy to fool me. But then I continued just to confirm

Me: You bluffing me..
Hendrick: No..really...serious


From the tone, I was pretty certain then I was "shortlisted" for the classes.

Great..So after abandoning the idea of xeroxing my stuff, I left and went up and was still crossing my fingers to see if the list was for real. And shit it was....MY name was clearly spelled there second from top and with the correct ID and there were lots of people crowding the area and a familiar sound came from behind...

Anita: Bryan, I heard the news....


As if to rub it in... then i said

Me: YA la...screwed right
Anita: What happen to you la?? what did you write for your essay??
Me: I write everything to point and I thought I did well


Then Iggy came along, and saw my name and he burst into laughter....

Shit..again I'm screwwed and doom and speaking of attention, I think I prove my point now...


Entering into the audi, was as usual some jaded faces moving along up and down. And then as I move up I saw my friends. Then when they heard my voice, they turn behind and said, "Bryan!!" faces tun, eyes everywhere suddenly focusing on me. It like one of those scenes in anime where the character suddenly shrinks out of embarassment or out of fear."What Happen!!" " and you fail your english test" " what did you do la??" " How could you fail?!" Then Veehan added..

Veehan: Speaking of unwanted attention, you really got it.


Yeap, I do agree. And as the days goes by especially during the lecture. I was still trying to come to terms with the situation I am in. Iggy was beside me constantly encouraging me saying "How could this happen oh... RAhul kena, David kena, Darren kena and YOU kena... must be some mistake"

But that's over. I think I've already vent out enough frustration and anger about the whole matter and probably it's somehow a good thing to happen anyway, although I still can't figure out which part of it is good...... So for the last time SHIT!!!!

NEWSFLASH!!!

Arsenal vs Juventus
2-0


Fabregas scores......

I can't believe myself actually getting excited about Arsenal's achievements recently but they are the only English Team left in the Champions League but then again the irony is most of the players are non English save for one dude who happens to be recoveirng from injury, Ashley Cole.


Highlights of the match:

  • Francesc Fabregas scores 1st goal on the 40th minute
  • Thierry Henry scores 2nd goal on the 70th minute
And the best news
  • 2 fellas from the opposoing side fell victim to the red card...so good luck JUventus in your 2nd leg meet with Arsenal.

The Ball

When someone talks about a ball, it can refer to many things. However, as many as it can be mentioned about a ball, generally it can mean you are talking about a specific sport, a ball which is the more elegant way of saying prom(sort of like a promotion from those high school days) or in the horny sense of which those who read this should know what I mean. Here, I am referring to the "middle ball" meaning.

As for girls, they will spent days and splash big bucks just to look good. It would be like....

Hmm.... What am I going to wear??

OR

Aha...How bout this gown....NO... How bout this beautiful dress??...

Then there will look at the price and though they may need to pay an exorbitant amount of money for the particular clothes they like, most girls would not bother. Some think that it's a ball, I want to look good and I think this dress/gown/whatever...(my fashion lingo is quite limited) suits best in me. Of course, the definition of the word exorbitant varies widely among members of the female population especially amongst fashion afficionados.

Differences between male and female(abridged version)

"In summary, the female animal, with or without ovaries, shows no significant difference in the thickness of her right and left cerebral cortices except in part of the visual cortex where those without ovaries develop right dominance. Other researchers have reported that two major connecting fiber tracts between the two hemispheres are larger in females than in males, a finding that supports the notion that the female exhibits symmetrical cortical patterns. What might be the advantage of such symmetry in cortical morphology?

For the female animal, the main functions in life are to bear, protect and raise her offspring. These roles challenge her to go in many directions, both geographical and conceptual, something that may be more accessible and readily achieved with a symmetrical brain. We might conjecture that the trend to right dominance in the older brain of the female without ovarian hormones suggests a shift to the more visual focus demanded of the male.

In summary, the male cerebral cortex displays both symmetrical and nonsymmetrical right/left patterns in cortical thickness with the nonsymmetrical pattern being slightly more anatomically frequent (60%). and in turn suggesting functionally more frequent. What might be the advantage of having some cortical areas asymmetrical in the male? In general, male behavior involves finding and defending his territory and finding his female, all rather focused functions, possibly benefiting from an asymmetrical cortex."


It seems wired into their genes that girls like to shop based on the popular theory that females are "the gatherers" as in the Stone Age era and guys "the hunters" so you see guys usually instinctively find what they want, grab it and in the modern world, pay for it unlike girls who spend hours entering from one shop to another and still find much enthusiasm to gossip over petty matters in Starbucks. And here is where you see a fine line dividing the species, girls will be busy scouring over clothes, while guys sit outside and wait for their ladies or their mothers....

As for me, it depends on my spending power. For me to attend a ball, a suit, or a tuxedo with dark coloured slacks will be find for me and of course a tie which will give a good contrasting effect to the entire combination. Probably, cufflings would be a nice accessory or even a tie clip. MOST guys end up dressing like this except for the subculture group meterosexuals. I would have probably say this because I have not attended many balls. So it doesn't matter or maybe I haven't got bored of how the way I look.

What I truly desire is a date. Yeap...Might sound too cliche but as for me I think I need someone to really brighten up the night. Not just any girl but a special girl, I'm not sure whether I've seen her or talk to her. Whatever, it is I just leave it to God, cause only He knows best.

American Idol Top 3


It is very ordinary for someone to have a preference for something, be it food, people, leaders or idols. OK cut the phiosophical part and as for The American Idol 2006, my personal top 3 would be

  1. Chris Daughtry
  2. Mandissa
  3. Katherine McPhee
Yes, and I think the most beautiful of all would be Katherine. I think she also has the talent and the musicality and her voice is the best among all the babes there safe for Mandissa, whose voice is only comparable to those black gospel singers with their huge bodies and naturally... huge lungs, and that is why their voices can reach seemingly impossible high notes and yes ..dragging the notes for also seemingly impossible long times. ANd for the latter its quite undoable for small or medium sized built people. I think of all the famous singers out there, Mariah Carey is comparable to her but it remains to be seen how Mandissa can reach the height of success like Mariah....OH yess.... the diva can already be seen in her(Mandissa) but it only depends on her ability to be one of those great artists, some one that would be a legend and go down in history and worshipped as one of those singing goddess. HAHA..

OOh the reason I wrote this is for Katherine McPhee.... and only Katherine. u know wat.... I thought she was 21 and then she just turn 22 recently......AAArgghh(U know wat I mean) Anyway, it doesn't matter. I think she sang well and that song suits her Her voice and her expression blended in with the style of the music and i would give her an 8.5/10 for her performance. I think this performance was much better than the week she did with Stevie Wonder. Hmmm.... I still wonder what style of music suits her, her jazz rendition of Barry Manilow was pretty good and she is quite consistent with her performance if you watch American Idol since Top 24, Well, maybe there was a week or two where she din perform as expected.

Stevie Wonder's songs are not easy to sing and his distinctive style quite sets himself from the rest of the singers around his time safe for a few. And the fact that he's blind humbles most other musicians where I'm sure with 5 senses, they ought to do better. A true living legend.

As for the lovely and talented Katharine McPhee, Good Luck on being the next American Idol!!!
