this story may look familiar..

but i think the 5 simple rules are asking too much.. and it's impossible..

they are rules to be happy.. -_-
1. Free ur heart of hatred... (nahs.. so difficult.. there is always someone u dun like)
2. Free your mind from worries... (this is impossible!... we got our studies to worry abt..)
3. Live simply...
4. Give more
5. Expect less

nahs.. continue... haas.. oh ya.. teachers' day.. gonna go back to see my TEACHERS... but wait... someone told me something... that is.. my a maths teacher.. miss jenny ng.. is no longer teachin!! kaos... my e maths teacher.. mr roland tan has left for another schooL!!! dammit!! mdm wong, my geog teacher.. oso left!! although mdm wong nv really teach me geog.. cos i dropped geog during second semester.. she's really nice and humorous! ahaaz.. lemme think.. i think thats all abt the teachers.. the teachers hu stayed there are oso nice.. but.. hai.. duno wad to say.. as mentioned in jo's tag.. haa. i told her to treat it as a gathering more than treating it as a visit to the teachers...

hmmm.. i wonder.. and i can predict wad the teachers gonna sae...
"how's life in jc?"
"how's ur study?"
"wad subs u taking"
"still able to cope?"
the questions are more or less there... but an exception.. i wonder wad xian xue told mr lau... hmmmmm................. mayb he'll ask wad did i say to defame xian xue... hmm.. did i?? i sympathise him la.. mayb not.. after all.. he said something that really... really... offended me... ahz..

whatever...

bla...

today had another near 5 hours of econs.. hais.. wad a torture... =_=

guess wad.. i taught mr ma f maths today.. hahas.. taught him how to do linear space.. he say he forgot ler.. wans recap.. haas.. gees.. but he's damn clever.. so fast recall everything.. =_= of course.. kith was the main 'teacher'.. he was explainin to him all the stuff.. haha.. i just gave him brief answers.. oops.. haa....

wahhaa.. i came acroos this joke in my email.. LoL.. so thot that i shud post this up...

here goes....

When times are bad....................Hang Cheng Pai....................

A NUS graduate found himself difficult to get a job here. He finally accepted the offer to work with Mandai Zoo.

"What to do? It's better to work like this than earning nothing...", mumbling to himself. So since that day, the IT grad started work acting as a monkey. He has to wear monkey suit and mask, chew nuts and eat bananas. He has to climb trees too and jump from one to another to attract visitors. The zoo has since then enjoyed tremendous business due to the increase in visitors. Even SM Lee wanted to see the super 'smart' monkey in the world. Unfortunately, one day when he was jumping from the trees. He fell down into a crocodile pool!

"Oh my God....I'm dying... now" he thought, as a hungry looking crocodile swam steadily towards his direction. In the middle of his struggle, suddenly he heard a soft voice,

"Don't be afraid my friend... I'm from NTU".

wads the moral of the story? study so much oso no use..

‘Watching movies is a waste of time.’ Discuss.

Every one of us watches movies; this includes the old and the young as well. We can watch movies at cinemas, and also in our own homes; whereby we buy or borrow CDs, or even through illegal means by downloading through the Internet. There are many types of movies: action pack, romance, comedy, horror, animation and even porn. From movies, we can derive laughter, excitement, fear, experiencing different types of feelings by the different types of movies being shown. Time can be used up by this “event”, and sometimes it can be a waste of time. What do I mean by a waste of time? I define it as doing something that serves no purpose and no significance and instead, we can use the time to do something more important. In this context, it is watching movies. In this essay, I will discuss whether watching movies is a waste of time.

Lessons could be learnt. By watching movies, it tells us of how people deal with things and apply the concepts of life; to fight back after every setback, keep on going and overcome the obstacles in life, to move on in life, working together as a team. However, like the saying goes, “actions speak louder than words”, seeing how people apply such concepts, example, perseverance, we can understand further on what does it mean to persevere. An example would be the mandarin movie, “Homerun”. It tells us of how a small child living in poverty. In order to win the pair of shoes, he ran as hard as he could, any obstacles that come into his way, he would overcome it. This movie has told us to have a dream, and pursue it, no matter what comes into our way.

It can bond people together. It can come in the form of a family outing, where the whole family goes out to watch a movie, especially, when the type of movies that are screened are in the form of cartoon. Since almost everyday, parents could not get to be with their children that often, they can take this chance to bring their children out for a movie. Furthermore, with the five-day-work-week policy in place, this makes even more clearly that there’s a need for family members to be closer. Children would not feel neglected when parents bring them out to watch a ‘cartoon show’ on a big screen. Generally, children tend to ask questions, and this gives them a chance to interact and build better relationships within the family itself. It can also come in the form of class outings, or even celebrating birthdays. Friends and couples, going for a movie, this gives people a topic to talk about which is common to everyone. Since, they watched the same movie together, this serves as a common topic between them.

Movies can be educational. It can tell us of the history of the different wars in the world; the causes of these wars and the consequences. It can also tell us of how the past political leaders come into power and these things are related to what we are studying in school, and that is History. For example, the movie “The Rise Of Evil”. It tells us of how Hitler came into power before world war two and how did he achieve his aims. This comes in handy with what we have been studying and helps students understand even better. In general, images are proven to be more effective than words. If I were to give any student a picture-less book, no doubt, he or she will fall asleep. Thus, this triggers the interests of students in studying history.

Movies are a source of entertainment. In such a competitive society in Singapore, watching a movie could help us relax and de-stress. We can laugh ourselves out during a comedy type of movie, or even scream ourselves out watching a horror movie. As screaming ourselves out could help us release the tension in us.

On the other hand, movies can be misleading. It can screen false accounts of the past. For example, “Pearl Harbor”, which is about world war two. In History textbooks, it is said that the attack was during mid night, but it was screened to be in broad daylight. This will result in confusion among the students studying history, and convey the wrong message to the people. Another example is “Anna and The King”, which is about Thailand’s road to independence. However, this movie was banned in Thailand, as it would affect the people’s thinking towards the government, and thus losing the support of the people towards the government.

Movies are a waste of time to a small extent. They can teach us the concepts in life, and we become even stronger after that. Not only that, we are able to learn some things that are related to our textbooks. Furthermore, it can help us relax. Movies can be influential to our lives. Without it, some values of life will never be realized by most of the people. However, sometimes, movies portray a wrong value and mislead us but that is to the minimal. Time can be wasted or used effectively. It depends on one person’s time management. Whether watching a movie is a waste of time, depends on one person’s judgment and time management. Therefore I conclude that, movies are not a waste of time to a large extent.
