2nd needs analysis!

hey people.
got back from the 2nd needs analysis CIP today.
hmm, wasnt too much of a tiring day for me. didnt have to walk around with my bag as i was in the committee =D did quite alot of admin work though.

but one thing that struck me was the living conditions in a one-room flat.
i've seen the interior of these units before in a channel 8 drama called 一房半厅一水缸, but then as the saying goes, seeing (really) is believing. i mean, i cant imagine how i would survive in a one-room flat. so, really have to take my hat off to this people. many of them have probably been living here for tens of years already. dam siao.
and i also saw 2 a-ma(s) collecting cardboard boxes/pieces. then mr tan (weng seng) was commenting that he was dam curious so he went over to ask them.
can you believe it. one kg of cardboard can be sold for only a mere, cheap 1 buck. one kg of cans for $1.80. imagine how many empty cans you need to collect before you can earn $2? does an empty can even weigh 50g? ok somewhere there, and very possibly less, maybe 30g? thats like 20 cans to earn 2 bucks, not even enough to buy 2 canned drinks from outside. which is quite, shocking. seriously, alot of us are living far too extravagant/comfortable lives already. hardly experienced true hardship. and we still complain so much...hai.
then while the rest of the comm was up going to the rest of the undone units, saw some uncle from the void deck swearing like crap. as in really, shouting like mad also. i couldnt see who he was directing his vulgarities and stuff to though, or maybe its just someone in his mind.

but on a happier note, i just realised victor (lee) is selling me lots of imba cards at a dam imba price! yeas, gonna buy like siao from him for like the next week. hehex.

oh. and i realised i got alot of homework that i need to do la. crap.
-ss trailer + reflection
-eng biography trailer (which a certain someone refused to do), ppt, all due next weds. i think its gg.
did i also mention that i screwed up my chi mid-year exam worse than i ever imagined. and i dont even know what went wrong with my compo.
this is screwed. i hate this.

revive!

hmph.
never update this place for a whole frigging month. =(

not that i didnt want to (ok MAYBE i didnt), but theres nothing of particularly great interest to say, and also there wasnt really that much of free time to do so.
but then, a post is a post, so enjoy it while it lasts. (or while i still want to continue posting..)

first thing
MY COM BROKE DOWN LAST WEEK!!!
sianz. com couldnt start at all. then had to reformat, somehow safe mode works -.-
lost all games, files and impt information had backup hard drive though. then now i realise my msn also lost ALL emoticons. haiz.

next, unsw eng writing competition. freaking dumb, go outside the place at 4 and wait like 5-10mins, then one guy come out say kena delayed (god knows why), and come back at 4.30. thats like, wth. dam pro, delay until the whole thing finish at 5.30. then go back training like nth to do le. well, i suppose there WAS nth much to do from the start anyway since sec3s were mainly in charge for today.
speaking of which, they're still quite cmi in terms of...nco-ship? thats why im always telling shude that they need practice in taking squads and guidance from us. otherwise, cmi...being an nco is difficult.
but being a GOOD nco is even more difficult. =/

and im dam sian of 3rd lang now.
firstly, the place is at MOELC. which forces me to spend 15mins to go there twice a week, in the hot sweltering sun and making me sweat like mad. then, the classrooms also no aircon. kinda stuffy also but u could argue that im overly material-dependent or something.
second, the lessons are difficult. abit too difficult if u'd ask me. even ppl like jerome who was once like the most imba jap god isnt doing so well already. seriously, if theres one subject that i would really, surely confirm that its difficult, its 3rd lang. things like history and geography cant compare to it. not in terms of difficulty and unfamiliarity anyway.
thats why...i'll probably drop 3rd lang after this year. dropping now is stupid since i already took 4 years and might as well at least get a final year certificate/result or something. otherwise take for what.

hmm. thats all for now, but i probably wont be able to (find enough free time to)post again too soon. this sat got 2NA, and got like 2 big projects due, eng biography and ss docuemntary.
oh yes. TAG. ty =D
