A drunk gets up from the bar and heads for the bathroom. A few minutes later, a loud, blood curdling scream is heard coming from the bathroom. A few minutes after that, another loud scream reverberates through the bar. The bartender goes into the bathroom to investigate why the drunk is screaming.

"What's all the screaming about in there?" he yells. "You're scaring my customers!"

"I'm just sitting here on the toilet," slurs the drunk, "and every time I try to flush, something comes up and squeezes the hell out of my nuts."

The bartender opens the door, looks in, and says, "You idiot! You're sitting on the mop bucket!"

Adios!

Slept with a bad position, and ended up with a really bad stiff neck. Almost cured by the end of the day, but ended up worse with another bad sleeping posture later. I can barely turn my head now as I am typing! Damn the sleeping postures. To top it off, think the bad position made my back hurt like hell too, I think I gotta admit I'm getting old. Turning 30 soon is so not fun!

Realized that this is a special year. My 2nd batch of students who took A levels, are having their A levels this year. I think I must get use to it somehow, to all of you kiddos who are taking As this year, work hard! It would be nice to see you land a space in the Universities. I have faith in your hard work!

Brand new day tomorrow, spend it wisely, all you guys out there who are taking exams.

Good Luck N levels! I will see you next year for Os, without fail!

... After a 2 year study, the National Science Foundation announced the following results on America's recreational preferences:

The sport of choice for unemployed or incarcerated people is: basketball.

The sport of choice for maintenance level employees is: bowling.

The sport of choice for blue-collar workers is: football.

The sport of choice for supervisors is: baseball.

The sport of choice for middle management is: tennis.

The sport of choice for corporate officers is: golf.

Conclusion: The higher you rise in the corporate structure, the smaller your balls become.

Adios!

It was teacher's day and this week has been filled with presents and pleasant cards written, some of which made my eyes a little red. I know it's old, but I still wanna say that I really look forward to seeing you guys getting into the courses you wanted to go. Although it's abit sad to know that I wouldn't be able to see you guys so much after this year, but it's really nice to know you guys are working hard towards achieving your goals now. If I may add, finally. Hahaha!

I miss everyone of you, students, ex-students, friends. I decided to keep my blog alive more, will try to keep it on going as long as I can. I realise alot more people are reading this then I thought.

45 Days to go for O levels, work hard, love you guys!

A 65-year old mailman decided it was time to retire. When the small community he worked for found out, they decided they should do something nice for him, since he'd served them for the past 45 years.

So, the last day on the job, the mailman went up to the first house, and the homeowner welcomed him in. They gave him a pile of presents to thank him for all his hard work.

At the next house they gave him a cheque for 100 dollars, and the 3rd house, a cheque for 200 dollars.

At the fourth house, a blonde lady answered. She was wearing silk pajamas, and was motioning him to follow her upstairs. the mailman had the best sex of his entire life, and when they were done, he went downstairs. On the table was a huge breakfast, with waffles, eggs, pancakes, the whole deal, and a cup of coffee with a 5 dollar bill underneath.

The mailman was curious, so he said to the lady, "I've had the best day of my entire life, everyone has been so nice to me, but I have to ask, what's the 5 dollar bill for?"

The lady replied, "I asked my husband what we should do for you and he said 'fuck him, give him five bucks', but breakfast was my idea."

Adios!

I'm so totally hooked up with The Big Bang Theory. I'm practically laughing myself silly over this low budget production, where clever humors over-rides CG effects and explosions. Definitely a must-watch for comedy lovers!

Recently can't help but noticed that people have been posting pretty ridiculous posts on facebook, not like it's the first time it happened, but it's really remarkable how people could come up with stuffs like that. I post on your wall, you say random things you like about me, and I'll do the same. Oh wow... .... I really kinda wonder how much of what they wrote was actually true. Maybe I should set up a chain post too, saying random things I hate about people.

The mock exam just finished, and I must say although I did see a slight improvement overall, I guess exams mood haven't set in yet. I'll have to force that mood down you guys' throats then. Not much of a choice. Anyway on the other hand, some of you have done well, if not extremely well, and the efforts are commendable.

Whatever it is...

When in doubt or despair just remember; YOU are capable.


DDOJ:

Student: I don’t think I deserve Zero in this answer paper.
Teacher: Agreed. You deserve -1.


Teacher: Suppose, you have offered money and knowledge. You have to take one of them. Which one you should choose?

Student: Money.

Teacher: I would have taken knowledge. But why do you take money?

Student: I have the lack of money that’s why. You have the lack of knowledge. That’s why


Teacher: Tell me an example of a creature which can live on water as well as the land.

Student: Frog.

Teacher: Another example.

Student: Another frog.


A teacher asked student, What is the full form of Maths?
The student answered, 'Mentaly Affected Teachers Harrasing Students'

Adios!

It was indeed a nice weather today. Cooling, lots of rain. In fact, so much rain Orchard road got flooded while I was snug cozy at home. Hell broke lose in Orchard this morning, I guess many people have to overhaul their car because of the water getting into the engine.

Bought Dan Brown's latest book in hard cover tonight, it will keep me occupied for quite a while. "The Lost Symbol" seems like another epic book, hope it entertains me enough!

I guess blogs are pretty much outdated now a days, not many people blogs now. I keep seeing the same trend over and over again. Let me sum it up below about blogs:

step 1: new blog, hooray
step 2: write everything about yourself and your BGR
step 3: Oh shucks, BGR ended, my life suck
step 4: announce closing blog and never touch it again

ultimate step: repeat step 1 to step 4


Mine leh, because lack of people's blogs to visit, and more then half the links i have is dead or not continued, I pretty much lack the zest to update mine too, haha. But it won't die anyway, I'll just update as and when I felt like it. heh.


DDOJ:

A couple is celebrating their fiftieth wedding anniversary. They go down to their old school. There, in a corner, they hold hands as they find their old desk where he had carved, "I love you, Sally."

On the way home, a bag of money falls out of the armored car in front of them. She picks it up and counts fifty thousand dollars.

The husband says, "We've got to give it back."

She says, "Finders keepers." And when they get home she hides it in the attic.

The next day, two FBI men show up at their home. They say,"Pardon me, did any one in this house find any money that fell out of an armored car yesterday?"

She says, "No."

The husband says, "My wife is lying, she took the money and hid it in the attic."

She says, "Don't believe him, he's a bit senile."

So they sit the man down and begin to question him.

The FBI guy says, "Tell us the story from the beginning."

The old man says, "Well, my wife and I were on our way home from school..."

The FBI guy says, "ok old fella we understand"

Adios!

Holding on to principles.

Imparting skills and knowledge.

Passing on the attitude.

Persevering in doing what is right, and not give up.


Frankly speaking, the hardest is the last step. It's so damn hard that I cannot stress anymore. Facing bad situations, facing drop in morale, facing unappreciated efforts, persevering through all that is always difficult. Not that I didn't know that from day 1.

However, as long as we don't give up, it will still be workable. As long as you give up, all hope is lost.


DDOJ:

Little Johnny goes to his dad and asks, "What is politics?" Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way. I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me Capitalism. Mommy is the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you The People. The nanny, well, consider her The Working Class. Your baby brother, we'll call him The Future. Now go think about this and see if it makes sense."

So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said. Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying and runs to his room only to find that his diapers are very soiled. So the little boy goes to his parents' room. Mom is sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he looks through the peephole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand what politics is now."

"Good son, tell me in your own words then what politics are."

The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit."

Adios!

My condolences to the late Dr. Goh Keng Swee's family and friends. Your contributions and passing of your steel-strong will to the later generations, are something that will live on and be passed on to the next generation, and generations to come.




This is indeed an exciting year. Filled with the most interesting students I have ever had. When I read into more details of Dr. Goh, I have little wonder when his life story would ever be made into a movie. His story is one of a monolith in Singapore's history, which motivates anyone who yearns to become a better person, to himself and to others.

Last night, I met my Professor Ian from NTU at the Jurong Point's NTUC. I have never felt such great happiness in a long while, to be able to see my mentor, someone who have impact my life to the extend of changing me.

As an educator, every year is a constant challenge to me. To be able to help guide them, change their lives, and possibly lead them to their own ideals and expanding their horizons to the real world.

I may not be the best tutor out there, but I've never once thought I've not done my best. I might have slacked, or be complacent, but the lesson learnt will keep my fire burning.

To everyone out there, friends, students, and ex-students. I may not be a giant in your life, but it'll not stop me from giving in my best.


DDOJ:

"If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up" said the sarcastic lecturer.

After a long silence, one freshman rose to his feet. "Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?" enquired the lecturer with a sneer.

"Well, actually I don't," said the student, "but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself."

Adios!
