Podcasts and scare tactics

Well haven't been blogging for really quite a bloody long time.... for the past few weeks it seems that i can't look at a stray dog without thinking "Impending sense of DOOM!!"or look at chiara without thinking of adenoviruses and echoviruses;p

But seriously, i think people are really getting more and more scary man.... for some reason it seems to me that people are studying more for the CAs then for last yrs pros...

Admittedly it may seem that m2 ought to be harder cos we now have 6 tracks..... but still.... seeing people stay back in the library EVERYDAY until the libs closes at 10 ONE MONTH b4 the CAs is still scary.... i guess last yrs... oh wait last academic yrs events kinda scared a lot of people(thx arh picket fence model....)

Of cos i admit that i'm one of the chao muggers also... but then again i have to cos i have the memory capacity of a goldfish.... you noe why goldfishes cant live in glass bowls too small to even fit a packet of maggi mee? Thats cos they have a memory of 3 secs... so by the time they swim to the other end of the bowl they forget where they are liao... so suddenly its a whole new world for them to explore again!!

But seriously... all this mugging is really starting to make me feel the burnout.... so ive come up wif a list of things you can do to destress while studying in the libs.....

1) Go to the 20cent vending machine.
I mean not that i'm that giam siap(ok actually i am) but the walk back and fro can be pretty nice if your head is about to explode from conflicting immunology info from different textbooks....

2) Go look for Sterling
When Prof S Tay said that sterling is a charismatic doctor.... he was underestimating his witty charm..... so go look for him for your daily dose of crap;p

3) Walk to Co-op(office hrs)/NUH 7-11(night time)
Well you can never underestimate the power of retail therapy.... im sure the girls will agree wif me on this one haha...

4) Find some friends and go to the student lounge to look at the mednet galleries together

5)Read this blog in the library
Warning extremely encphalotoxic

6)Attempt to "Sell yourself to the vending machine" in exchange for a free drink

7)Try the new tapoica chips in the vending machine that everyone seems to be so damn bloody crazy about....

8)Go NUH and search for the hallowed secret 10cent vending machine..... which is rumored to be on the 5th floor.... imagine the light shining down on the machine and the music playing in the background if you manage to find it.....

Ok i guess there's a lot of crap u can do while studying... but thats up to your imagination.... but if your really really really bored u can look for me and ill see if im in the mood to bring u to my fav place in med fac haha....

Car of the month for Oct!

Right...Oct is coming to an end and its the start of a new month and hell, my first CAs! Right, who cares bout bogey-1 who conveniently forgotten about us when she saw some handsome guy standing at Row 10 of Terminal One Changi Airport! We all know, how 'chee ko' she can be, ain't it my fellow brudders?

Right, back on to the Car of the month, and without consulting any of my brothers because its my dad's birthday tomorrow and the car featured here is his favourite car (one of them at least), but something I wish he can buy right now to satisfy my hunger for a car to drive to school!

Yes, its none other than the Volvo S80. Its brand new and hell, its pretty. I know you guys must be thinking, hell to it. Low resale value and stuff like that, but hey, you buy a car to sell it away after 3 years or you buying it to drive? I know a BMW may sound more worth it, but hell, personally, I don't really like the 'empty' feeling of the BMW plastic and the lousy clicking noise of the door closing. So... yes, the volvo looks gd, feels gd. Check it out baby..

Happy Birthday Dad! Although, he doesn't read this blog, but yes, I'll buy one for him one day when I earn my first pay. My mum too!

It ain't the nicest, but it still looks gd.

Vertigo

It weighs heavily upon me

Holding this terrible burden
A dusty relic
Torture from the distant past.
Every step.

Made in bitter agony.
I cannot go on.
Carrion birds circle above
Rid me of my terrible curse.
Offer me sanctuary and help me
Burn this damn Textbook!

TSB & Friends REJECTED

Yes... Read the headlines my friends, this is ground-breaking news. We’ve been rejected; ergo unwanted, discarded, cast-off, abandoned, stood-up, need I say it? PANG SEH-ED. By whom you ask? Who could affect our mood so? There can only be one... Before I go into details, allow me to relate the flow of events that led to this disastrous state of affairs (5 guys sulking is really a hard thing to bear):

Leo pissed off; Ronnie looks on in fear

It all began on an easy-going Saturday morning, when the world was sunny and gay... Ah Tan and Ah Chen were in the library studying together. Misery and the sad drabness of their lives cast a shroud of darkness over the beautiful sky, and microbiology threatened to overwhelm their last vestige of hope.

Recruit Chen, Tell me, WTF is this a sausage fest?

Then, Ah Tan came up with an idea! “Ah Chen... Lim-peh feeling very angsty now, I see all the microbes ah... All I can think of is STD hor... Makes me want to tock diao leh... Wah lau, buay tahan already. Let’s go jio people go supper!”

Ronnie's smiling but he's actually crying, look at the puffy eyes... Bogey-1!!! You made Ronnie cry!!!

So Ah Tan and Ah Chen went around and asked all the M2s they saw in the library, “Tonight Swenson’s onz or not? Chong studies until seh tiao, then go hantum the ice cream there?”

"but I didn't wanna eat with you guys..."

Unanimously, all our brothers agreed! SONG BO! But then we hit our first line of resistance, when we asked two zhar bos to join us: They were Aileen and (so as not to breach she-who-must-not-be-named’s privacy) Bogey-1. Well, Aileen declined on valid grounds, so that was a sort of suck-thumb situation for us.

Si buay buay song

Bo cannot our company alone, what does he do?

So he plugs in...

But oh man, Bogey-1 set our expectations up with a YES! Bogey-1 had a prior operation at a Changi and would’ve been in the vicinity. So we thought we would have a council of Six for that night! Plus I was supposed to be qia-ed for providing Intelligence for Bogey-1’s operation. BOGEY-1!!! BILA ANDA MAU BELANJAH SAYA?

This was supposed to be my treat sniff...

Looks good right? Sigh... Bogey-1 tak sayang mereka!

What do I got to do, to make you love me? What do I gotta do, to make you care? What do I say when it’s all over? Boohoohoo... As my dear readers have seen by now, my brothers and I were devastated. I'm sorry, but I must discontinue here... I'm still too stunned by the tragic turn of events.

Adventures of the TSB & Friends (minus & Friends regrettably...)


A standard Monday morning, in a standard library, surrounded by the standard paraphernalia, studying with some not-so-standard friends...

Photowhore that I am...

An example of my not-so-standard friends

Thus began my day on the eve of Hari Raya (and here’s wishing all my Muslim friends a Selamat Hari Raya!).

Mugging hardcore through the day (or so we like to claim), it seemed fitting to reward ourselves with a one-times-good-one outing to celebrate this auspicious season. Why do I say auspicious? Cause I am forbidden under pain of death to speak of certain issues. Well, moving on...

'Good' CHEAP food (hark the cheap... chao giam siap)

A hungry student is an angry student, and seeing my brothers were going to splurge on other foodstuff, or more like liquid food, we chose Long John Silver’s over Burger King. I much rather have spent an extra buck at BK for much more satisfactory food personally, seeing I’m the only chao neh-neh who doesn’t indulge! Plus, since time immemorial, Yours Truly is the TSB's de facto chauffeur.

Of course, going by the looks of it, we must have been really angsty/hungry dudes

Right... Enough with the preliminaries, onto the MEN’S stuff. What attracts young ‘uns with a little bit of mulah to spend? Happy Hour, a.k.a. Beer, beer, and more beer. This was our primary objective of todays mission: Paulaner Brauhaus Happy Hour! The following captions say it all...

All ye maggots, 'tis will be the last moments before you're laid out on the floor!

Mike's living it up

For the sake of my brothers, I shan't show the sequelae of too much beer. Cheers!

Appreciate

I guess our readers are used to me writing serious stuff everytime I post something on this blog. I guess I'm the resident angst writer. I guess a series of events last week allowed someone to sent a stirrer into my pool of emotional shit and tempted me to start stirring once again making me highly melancholic. Right, not to mention the boring weekends! But, no worries my friends. I'm alright.

Well, I was reflecting a lot the past week and I felt that there are some people in our society that are really under-appreciated. I guess my close peers would know who I am referring to. Yes, I am referring to the cleaners, construction workers, garbage collectors, etc.

Have you wondered, without all these people your toilets will never be clean, your tables in the food courts will never be cleared, your garbage filled up to the brim and having no houses to stay in.

Yet, we discriminate against them. We think that they are dirty, uneducated, uncouth, basically the scum of society. But then think again, would you want to clean the table at the food centre after eating your meal? I mean, why families go to the food court / food centres for meals is that nobody is required to clean up the plates and leftover food later. Imagine having to bring your garbage to the dumping ground yourself, having to put the garbage in your car and then transporting it yourself.

Construction workers? Build the house yourself?? haha...

So, next time when you see them on the buses and trains, they may stink but they do the stuff that you wouldn't want to do. Maybe its only right that you stand up and offer them your seat. Studying is definately easier on your body than working out in the hot sun the whole day. Guys who went thru NS should know that digging holes ain't easy at all.. HAHA

Right..

Life is good, drink beer..



Cheers!

The Story Game

Right... What do 3 sickos do in a boring COFM visit to the illustrious Health Promotion Board? We play primary school games: THE STORY GAME. Sad thing is, 20 (and 22, some lau jiao so old still want to play... tsk tsk) years of life in this corrupt world is enough to pollute our formerly innocent minds.

We warily present the results of our half-hearted attempts at creativity on a sleepy Thursday afternoon. Please note these stories are only for our most DEDICATED and TWISTED readers. If you read this and cry out, “LAME” that’s because it probably is. So please, read only if you understand the detriment these anecdotes of TSB & Friends pose to your IQ.


Presenting the Wong Brothers:

Long before your time, in the Southern province of China, there lived the Wong brothers... Janus Wong, Leonard Wong, and JP Wong (certain names have been changed to protect their identities). Not forgetting the youngest brother, Wong Wenyang. Why mention Wenyang separately? Because he is the MAN! So... They are one happy family! =)

But they all had one thing in common; a deep, dark-seated secret too shameful to voice out. It’s about Janus Wong... Janus Wong had a weird habit: He scratches his butt 3 times daily. He has a compulsive tendency to do it, if he doesn’t, he will get pissed off and start to morph into a butterfly?!?!? And start dancing around in the room. I mean, nobody knows why, but we know he is weird! Kan... Not very weird right... The weird thing is, his butt must be scratched by his 3 brothers! So, once a day, each of the other brothers scratch his butt...

Then one day, the 3 brothers decided they didn’t want to be shameful anymore... They wanted to be shameless! So they set up a GS table and hatched a daring plan. The plan is to... Buy him an automatic scratcher! Oh my god! But we know Janus doesn’t like it plastic, he needs an ‘organic’ touch to his butt.

Anyway, over the hills and far away, Janus Wong comes out to play. Janus toast, Janus custard. Right...

Janus tried rubbing his butt on the soil! Organic enough? Alas... It wasn’t. He still desired the feel-good factor of his brothers’ nails on his ass. Soil just lacked the personal touch to it. So he decided to catch a rabbit, and forced the rabbit to scratch... But we all know THAT IT’S GETTING NOWHERE!

He tried many other methods to get his relief but to no avail. So one day, he decided to check some medical journals to find out about his condition. Lancet, BMJ, NEJM, and finally, in the Journal of Butt Scratching he found his cure! The earthworm is good at treating his disease.

So how is the earthworm good? It’s so slimy... Cannot scratch lah... But it still works! Because you don’t let the earthworm scratch you... You put it in the...

MOUTH! Lil’ Janus put the 蚯蚓 into his mouth, and suffered diarrhoea from the Salmonella typhi coated on the earthworm. Shit kept coming out so often, and his kar cheng hurt so bad, that he lost all desire to scratch.


The End. Right... You buggers who’ve read till here want to cheer that’s it’s over? I tell you nooooo... THERE’S MORE.


Presenting our Health Hypothesis:

It is said that females live longer than males. Their hair is longer than males too... Which leads us to the NYGH theory as to why women live longer than men: Early exposure in teenage boys’ years to the long armpit hair of NY girls caused their eyes to kena mak chiam. Mak chiam reminds me of MG! Well, it may remind some people of MG. We cannot escape the fact that exposure to armpit hair is both direct and indirect.

Directly, the hair is soooo long that it pokes and damages the retina. Yes, the retina. I’m not joking. I suppose when people look at girls bathing they kena mak chiam also is most probably due to long armpit hair attacking the retinas of the 色狼s...

Therefore, we have come up with a proposed SOP to LAGs (Long-haired Armpit Girls): If LAGs must insist on wearing sleeveless tops, it should be mandatory that they shave. The HPB has further advised the distribution of Gilette shavers to facilitate the shift from the contemplative phase to the action phase.

So where’s the money for Gilette shavers coming from? JP of course! =) Thanks JP! All the girls love JP... Right, right, he is sponsoring a Lancer Evo IX for the girl who shaves the armpit in the shortest time. But waxing and screaming loudly is strictly not allowed. Sia lah... Let’s put an earthworm into JP’s mouth!


The End. AND THANKFULLY SO. The last part was written by the two other BUGGERS who totally deviated from the NYGH Theory sniff... Money doesn’t grow on my hairs I keep telling you all! Terrible man, just terrible... Anyway, to sum it up, I thank those super hardcore fans who’ve read this far, I’m going to sleep.

Somebody-In-A-Skirt
Sorry for late post hur hur, had to dig up the cable.

Pick Up Lines


Gawd pick up lines, I mean like seriously who actually uses them? Well apart from causing people to keel over with laughter... wait that just might work. Anyway yours truly happens to have a few up his sleeve and chances are if you actually quoted some of them you would get your sorry ass slapped from here to pluto. So avoid these at all times!

Worst Pick Up Lines Ever!

0. If I could rearrange the alphabet I would put U and I together.
1. OMG! Are you okay?!? It must have been such a long fall from heaven!
2. Hi my name is Medicus-Guber! Can I buy you a drink or do you just want the money?
3. Do you have a mirror in your pants? Cos I can see myself in them.
4. *Lick finger and put on targets shirt* Hey let me help you out of those wet clothes.
5. Do you believe in love at first sight? Or do I have to walk by you again?
6. I not feeling like myself today. Can I feel you instead?
7. Hi my name is (Insert name here). Remember it cos you'll be screaming it later.
8. Hi my bed is broken. Can I sleep in yours?
9. Hi my name is Fred Flintstone and I sure can make your Bed Rock!
10. I may not be the best girl/guy here, but notice I'm the only one thats talking to you.

I will not accept any responsibility for what happens to you if you actually quote one of these lines, but if by some miracle you get attached to the girl of your dreams, please do feel free to make a sizable donation to the medical bill of the sorry sod that actually quotes one of these ;P

Pick up

Right, call me a mugger toad (when did toads get associated with muggers?) if you want, but yes, i was in school with Jp studying in the lib. Not surprisingly, there were many other M2s in the libs studying thier asses off on a lonely saturday. My life is getting lousy, help me get out of this viscious cycle of studying.

Anyway, after having lunch, Chiara went to the toilet and came back with an interesting piece of paper many of us would have seen in the toilet and I gladly brought it home thinking that I might use it one day in my sad lonely life. Its actually a piece of A4 paper with strips cut out at the sides and type-written on it extremely corny pick up lines and the instruction says:

" See someone you fancy?
Find it hard to speak to her / him?
Tear out these little slips of paper
Ask them out to RingaFling "

Anyway, what the hell is a RingaFling? Please enlighten me if anybody knows... but anyways here are 2 of them, I'll add in somemore some other time for us desperate single guys out there (:

- If you were the new burger at McDonalds you would be called Mcgorgeous!

- Do you have any raisins? No? How about a date?

I hope you guys don't get a slap or a ridiculous laugh from the girl you are using these lines on... lol

Chicken Soup for the Soul.

Innocent sounding title yes. Well thats all part of the plan. Not too sure how many of you folks out there watch Southpark. Yes yes I know, all of you happy Scrubs + House + Prison Break + Lost downloaders out there already have enough shows to watch but seriously what would another 20minutes of pure entertainment do to your mugging schedule? ;P With great fanfare an aplomb I present to you www.allsp.com, which shows not just 1, not 2, but all 10 seasons of Southpark. Do I hear OMG? Yes thats right folks all 10 seasons of Southpark! And if for some strange odd reason you havent watched Southpark the movie, I just so happen to know where to get it too.

I guess there might be something mildly disturbing about 3rd Graders, thats primary 3 to us (I think...) running around screaming vulgarities and yet seeing Kenny getting killed in every single episode never fails to bring a smile to my face. Poor Kenny, he's been killed by terrorists, shot by american fighter planes, killed via falling of a cliff, sacrificed himself in worship of David Blaine, exploded via spontanious combustion, puked his guts (literally) for saying "Shit" too many times (dont ask ... long story, well in a jist Shit is really a curse word, and saying "shit" too many times invokes a curse that heralds the end of the world), and well the list goes on. And yes yours truly identifies totally with Cartman, who staunchly defends the fact that he is not fat, just big boned...

Just doing my lil bit to keep you guys from going crazy. Take a break already! ;P

Study

*To the ladies whom I totally respect: This post is for fun, if you at any point in time feel insulted, please stop reading, but being women, we all know you won't really heed this advice and continue reading. No complaints from you all. Only nice words. Thanks.


Apparently, the latest craze in town is mugging (think books please). I mean I've never seen so many people mugging in the library before. Could it be that it derives soo much pleasure that it keeps people glued to the chair and books for hours and hours. Its scary to even think about it.

I mean, people are recording thier voices down into thier mp3 players (labelling it with codes like 听妈妈的话 when they are actually listening to themselves chanting out chapters from Mama Robbins, well, what more can we say?) and reading notes of other subjects (talk about multi-tasking). I'm sure there are other ways people are doing these weird stuff. Well, to get my Lancer Evo IX, I've decided not to study and fail my CAs so I can get retained. But who cares when JP buys me my car? I mean its worth the wait, at least I won't be feeling as miserable right now.

Ahh...lets get back to the actual thing that I've wanted to say, and that is to conduct a study for the sole purposes of writing a book. Well, Suriya, my fellow engineer gave me an idea today, that is to observe the women (or would girls be more appropriate) around us and write a book about girls. I mean, thats a great idea, kudos to Suriya, I hope he reads this article, because I'm eternally greatful to him.

I mean, its definately beneficial to all men that these creatures that landed themselves on Earth many thousands of years back and created misery for all men because they tempted the hearts of men and made them all evil. Setting a thousand ships, getting killed in battle, braving arrows and hearts, its women who caused men to fight against one another, made us talk in the toilet and tearing the only fabric that supports this society. Terrible, understand?

Well, as a good student of COFM who never does his tutorials and copies all of them, I'll be setting out to do a cohort study where I don't give a damm bout the person time, who leaves and who enters at what time, because these girls stay in the same LT and they just create trouble for men in the LT..maybe to men outside too... Of cuz, I need suriya's help. We will be bringing a tape recorder around and then we will tape down whatever we observe.


Recording Example 1:"3rd time visiting store, pick up the same pink brooch, placed it back, picked it up again..turn around..jump twice...smiled..laughed, deep though, turned to friend.. smiled and then put brooch back AGAIN. Walk away... Oh no, they are back at the store for the 4th time in 2 mins, this time she picks it up..and looks at it wantonly... puts it back down and walks back into the LT... Wait, she turns back and pick it up again!! Ahhhhh, I'm not doing this anymore!!!"

Recording Example 2: "Likes to step on shoes."

Recording Example 3: "Smiling to herself for the 10th time during lecture"


Well, I mean, its gonna be based on a cohort and all we need is just ONE girl and we will make a decision to put it as our study. Who cares about its accuracy? But we all know...that its TRUE. With absolutely not SD, SE or whatever and whatever test you use, paired, unpaired, mann-whitely, Leonard's test, wenbo's test. It will all be accurate to the MEAN.

Right...enough crap.... Study time and women..they make me miserable. Although I like women.. haha... see...they are the trouble!!! CHOU

Ahaaa Give me one bottle Mineral Water

Check out this post on Wikipedia about Hand Gestures. My favourite ones are the "Tsk-Tsk" sign and of cos everyone's favourite, The Finger.... pretty useful if u ever need to enchance non-verbal communication...

And have you ever wondered what the hell all those army dudes are thinking when they do the weird hand signals? Well here's a guide....
Military Hand Signals

And here's a hand signal guide about Guding Vehicles..... i'm sure Som will remember this haha....

And since i'm touching upon the topic of army.... here's something all you buggers ahould look at...

The SAF Medical Corps Song!!!

Now its doesnt matter if you're ORD or disruptee, cos most likely we're all gonna be MOs next time hehe.... and be sure to download the MP3 of the song... oh and if you're a girl this is also a great chance for you to hear an example of an army song if you've never heard one b4 haha....

Sakit Gila

Yon know, my friend yang always bitches that 22 is like damn old liao(got meh??) and that i should be getting married liao.... thats why i'm now waiting for yang's wedding dinner on 2nd feb 2008 when he turns 22.....

But the thing is, getting married in SG is no big joke man. I'm not talking about finding your ideal partner/the one or all that romantic related crap, but the fact that it's just so darnnn bloody friggin expensive. How ex? Well lemme give u an idea....

HOUSE
Ok most impt of all is buying a new home. The 2 of you being newlyweds, you'll probably be bonking each other as much as possible, and doing it in either parent's houses isn't very fun unless u like your parents to be hearing weird noises from the bedroom....

Well lets say you or your spouse come from a well heeled family who can give u some financial backing. If you wanted to stay in lets say..... a 3 room condo apartment..... that would set you back minimum $800 000.... and if you wanted to stay on landed property, thats at least 1 million..... considering a downpayment of 10%, thats like $80k-$100k instantly.....

So for most people you'll prob get government property, which means HDB or EC(Executive condominums). Not only are these cheaper, but you can get loans and grant for them, which definitely saves you quite a bit i would say....
But lets say u getting an executive apartment in woodlands, thats about $350 000.... i'm not sure if the the HDB grant or housing loan covers the downpayment.... but anyway if it doesnt, thats 35k for the roof over yer heads. Of cos you can't be making love on the floor all the time, so renovations and furnishings/appliances will set you back at least $5k. So thats $40 000 bucks for the home.

CAR
Well some might argue that this is optional, but to be realistic, having a car can make life a whole lot easier, both for getting to and fro from work and going to east coast park to make out. And lets face it man, with girls nowadays being so pampered(and some guys also), you gonna be looking at divorce papers from her lawyer if u don't get a decent ride to ferry her around in. Economically speaking, you can get a Toyota Altis for about $45k, and 10% of that is $4500.....

Wedding/Honeymoon
Well if you're in medicine, there's a high chance you'll be getting "jiggy wif it" with another tabib, despite what some say about not "eating and shitting in your own backyard". Let's face it man.... being medical students/docs you don't really get to interact with people from other facs, and even if u have a "hey hey" outside of med.... maintaining the relationship ain't gonna be easy, esp after houseman starts;p

But anyway my point is that professionals marrying professionals = 龙纵(long zong,grand) wedding, well most of the time anyway. But this will prob mean that at least either side of the families parents will want a big scale 5 star wedding at somewhere like The Fullerton or The Ritz Carlton.

Now saying this i actually feel that The Fullerton isn't that worth it. I mean the ballroom is like damn grand and nice but at the end of the day.... the ballroom is in the freaking basement. And the windows open out onto street level.... not terribly grand unless you have a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles themed wedding and the ballroom is a secret base in the sewers....
I'll rather much have my wedding at somewhere unique and special.... like Sentosa.... of cos now that i've said this some of u buggers will prob be stealing my idea 9 yrs down the road=p thank goodness i've got other tricks up my sleeves haha.....

But anyway a table at the Ritz or Fullerton will set you back minimum $1000 - $1200 per table, so if you get 20 tables(10 per side enuff?) thats mimimum $20k liao..... of cos you'll be able to recuperate some of the cost from the ang bao.... but not everyone is that generous=) So anyway let's assume you get back 60%... so thats $4000 for the wedding night alone.

Now since you'll be wanting to do the horizontal tango in exotic places, that means a honeymoon is in order. Lets say you both go on a 1 week europe trip and stay in nice hotels(it's a damn noneymoon for goodness sake.... don't tell me you wanna backpack and bone each other in hostels), plane tickets(and airport tax) about 3k, lodging another 1k plus, food maybe $700, shopping money for the lady.... all inclusive i'll say a honeymoon would set you back about $6k to $8k.....

So wedding plus honeymoon..... thats $12 000, and that's not even including misc fees like wedding photo taking.....





So that brings us to a grand total of......

$40000(home) + $4500(car) + $12000(wedding)= $57 500(highly optimistic number)

Of cos personally i believe that since you only get married once in your life(ok ok i now thats not true in this age anymore but indulge the romantic in me for a while haha), you should just spend as much within your means and make your wedding as memorable as possible.....

So my advice is..... if you find someone you really really really like hold on to her/him like crazy and never ever let go...... and oh yeah start saving too=p

PS: I believe in planning ahead but i'm NOT that crazy to think about such stuff on my own... the only reason why such stuff in on my mind is cos i've been listening to my elder bro talk to my mom about marriage stuff.....

Alamak!!

Haiyo, why did the haze miraculously improve? I was gonna sell all of you N95 masks at $5 a pop once the school week started =(. Not my fault I happen to have a few extras lying around from my CSFC (its the bit after m2 but b4 m3) posting at SGH. Then the stoopid PSI reading had to fall from 150 to a measly 27. Zzzz I mean if it had fallen to 100 then maybe I could have sold them at $2.50 or somethin, at 27 PSI??? Whose gonna wanna buy them? I mean all they do is make you look funny and get wierd looks on the streets ... hrm then again if I wear my Oakley Visor (a momento which I keep from my M113 operating days) and the damn N95, I could probably rob a bank to make up for the loss in income. Then again I dont have a gun to ... nvm, everybody in the bank will probably be rolling so badly with laughter I wont even be needing the gun...

So anyway, dudes and dudettes, do this poor medstudent a favour and if you hear news that a bank was robbed by a visually impaired dirt-biker/tanker with respiratory problems, pretend you didnt hear anything yeah?

I can see clearly now the haze is gone(for now anyway)

Sorry for the long hiatus, but for the past few weeks my life has pretty much being travelling（千里之外）, mugging, more travelling（万里之外）, running and more mugging..... and in b/w any of those periods im pretty much quite brain dead...

But after so bloody long the haze seems to be getting slightly better, at least comparitively with yesterdays frickin PSI of 150.... it's like so many people are either falling sick or having their sinuses killed by the damn haze.....

But i'm sure there are some people who are more affected by others...... like for example the DHL balloon at bugis.... i'm pretty sure there's not going to be much to see(or breathe) for that matter when u get up there....

Also i'm sure that a some ant-chemical warfare units in the SAF are swearing and cursing about the the haze right now....

Officer: Good morning gentlemen..... seems like quite a hazy day today..... you know what that means?

Voice from platoon: Sir! Cancel training sir!

Officer: Cancel training your head lah! No....... in order to protect your health.... from today onwards everyday is mask day! You guys will do everything everyday in your masks.... from 5BX to SOC.... in fact now that i think about it that the cookhouse also seems quite hazy.....

Platoon: NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Of cos on the other end of the spectrum i'm sure many people are profiteering from the haze.... like the respiratologists and the ENT specialists of cos.... laughing all the way to the bank..... and prob also the face mask manufacturers.... and maybe even the car workshops....

Mechanic: Eh Mr Lim! Eh now arh.... the haze veli bad you noe..... driving cannot see clearly liao! But wait! I give you special deal on the xenon headlight.... turn on liao can shine until Malaysia one! Drive in haze surely no problem liao!!

周杰倫 - 千里之外 (Featuring 費玉清)

so near yet so far..... will the chronic inflammation ever heal?.....
or will it turn into cancer?=p

The Haze

I think some good movie producers or script writers out there might want to write a script or produce a film titiled 'THE HAZE'. The haze itself is scary, it strikes fear in the hearts of every citizen in Singapore (we must learn from Hollywood, that everything strikes the US only and the whole universe revolves around them). Why so scary you say? Isn't the haze just some smoke from Indo, where the farmers cut down trees, set them on fire and then dance around them like some ritual to get themselves sooty black so they can get a better harvest next year? No, it isn't.

The haze is scary, it shows no mercy, it infiltrates every nostril, every orifice in the human (including your pores). It attackes your conchae, down your nasopharynx, oropharynx, larynx (whatever the sequence of that tube). And deep down ur bronchi, into your bloody lungs and gets into your blood. Moves around, activating your macrophages, your T cells, B cells, complement, your coagulation factors, anything you can think of.

Tachycardia, Bradycardia, Tachypenia, dysphagia, anaphylaxis, etc. Your vessels getting clogged. Emphysema, cardiac failure, AMI, subdural hemorrhage, cerebrovascular accident, DVT, DIVC, Herpes, TB, hemiplagia. Whatever you think of, you get it. Hell...now isn't the haze scary? I'm sorry to put in this lame joke...but you might want to tell your friends to change their names from hazel to something else if anybody might want to take up this wierd idea of mine.

Sorry...its 1130 and the PSI is 128 on a sat morning. With the fever I had the past 2 days and having body aches all over. This is some of the crap I can write and check out the pics I took from my balcony and my corridor anyway...

Where are the towers in town? No more UOB? No more Swissotel?

Where is the Changi Airport control tower??

Boring

I have this feeling that our posts are getting more and more mundane, well, with the exception of &friends who writes occasional good crap here to entertain all of us. Guess, we are all just getting jaded with medicine, blogging and of course with life. It seems that I'm writing most of the post now and a while ago, it was Tuck writing most of the crap. You all must be thinking that there is a conspiracy going on here, but no, guess everybody has issues and need sometime to resolve them.

And, to make it better! I've decided to take more pictures using my stupid camera phone which has highly been utilised. Its 2MP for god's sake and I don't take any opportunistic pics with it? What am I thinking about?? Perhaps the shit that I've been thinking lately has just flooded my head and clouded my thinking. And here is some of them:

Woo...

WTH is wy doing??

Click on the pic, the label there says 'Love us, not eat us'

Qian Tai the hot stuff refusing to take pictures..
but don't we all agree, he looks like some sexy arabian night princess? haha

We love girls

Well, I guess TSB has a bad rep for being a female bashing site, but other than medicus-guber (fuck..I must say this everytime I blog...its disgusting..but who gives a damm when he is buying us a EVO...I heard he is buying me a Volvo C30) who goes around disturbing girls and writing unfriendly posts about girls. We at TuckSomBong generally love the creatures that originates from Venus (freakin cliche) because they look oh..so fine.

Right, to prove that, check out Simply Red's Song, For your Babies. I know its written about pregnant women but hey its a beautiful song. Beautiful song for beautiful girls out there(no matter how bad you think you look! Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder ain't it?)

One more thing, feminist out there...guys are jerks (yes, I admit, we jerk a lot esp anteroposteriorly) but no we are not bastards (we are not dogs) and no we are not whatever you think we are. We are nice people, ain't we? haha..Ok the lyrics:

For Your Babies (Simply Red)
Youve got that look again
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller-coastering
Anyway the four winds that blow
Theyre gonna send me sailing home to you
Or Ill fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes
You know Id do most anything you want
Hey i, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you

I dont believe in may things
But in you I do

Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in the hope for you
Your whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy than blue
In many ways your babys controlling
When you havent laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinkingT
heyre too busy finding ways
You know Id do most anything you want
Hey i, I try to give you everything you need
Ill see that it gets to you
I dont believe in many things
But in you I do

You know Id do most anything you want
Everyday i, I try to give you everything you need
Well always be there for you
I dont believe in many things
But in you I do

This is so Badong......
