Hi all.
It pains me to have to announce this, but a real man ought to get things over and done with, so I shall do it now.
As most may know, my internet connection has always been a prickly issue with me, having an erratic behaviour of working sometimes and not working for the rest of the time.
As such, I have decided to cancel the contract I hold with my current internet provider. (whose costs are prohibitive anyway)
Alas, the current competitors of this company are not offering any discounts of free computers/laptops/anythingunderthesun. As such, I shall most likely not have any internet connection during the course of the november + december holidays.
No connection would mean no blog of course, and that would mean that the author is bidding all loyal readers farewell.
As of now, this blog is entering into a hibernation mode, and do not expect any new posts on it for a long long time.
With that, sayonara, and visit other blogs for a change.
Thanks.

CVs, CIP, and Babies
Wednesday, October 17, 2007
Hi, this is Ada hacking into Wei Yang's blog.
Just joking.
Actually, this is Wei Yang trying to envision a possible scenario of Ada hacking into my blog and posting a post in my own name.
Why am I doing this? To prolong the immensely pleasure of writing my CV, haha.
Anyway, I( As in Wei Yang who is trying to pretend that Ada is pretending to be me) chanced upon two events today, and one made me happy, the other sad. All in all, I learnt something from them.
The first event made me happy. I saw an adorable baby sitting next to me on the bus today. He was so cute!!! I look at him and wondered if he had as many strands of hair on his head as Mr X got for Maths. Probably not, but the baby was cute (not cube) nevertheless.
(On second thoughts, this isn't working too well, so I will revert back to myself)
The second event made me pissed off like siao. CIP was canceled again. I am sharpening my parang and chopper at home, in preparation for their matchmaking session. With who? The balls of the fellow who happily told me to blame someone else. One of these days, the chopper will elope with that fellow's balls to a far away land, never to be seen and heard again. Watch out.
On a lighter note, my chess is improving back to my original standard, with hopes of exceeding even that standard. Yay.
Since I ran out of things to write, I suppose I will get back to writing my CV. Ah, how
wonderful.

Hi.
I wanted to name this entry "Life is like a RPG", but decided not to, since it sounds like the title of my previous entry.
Sometimes, I feel that this blog is like a mistress to me. Why?
Because I only come to this blog when I am not playing chess/doing hw/sleeping/eating/etc, which is a very rare occurrence.
Come to think of it, most people have plenty of trivial pursuits in life, like baking cookies, getting picked up, getting drunk etc. However, it would be significantly rarer to find someone possessing a main focus on something, be it to live a happy life, excel in their career etc.
People constantly bemoan the fact that life 'sucks'. I will stop short of criticizing them, since I had belonged to the ranks of these unhappy people not too long ago. However, have these people ever ask themselves what is their purpose in life?
They have not. They sink deeper into the quagmire of self-pity, thinking that their bloody lives are without purpose, and 'that there is nothing for them to live for'. Remarkable idiocy.
If life gives you lemons, make some lemonade. Similarly, if life has no purpose, give it a purpose of your own. The path to the goal you choose may not be smooth, you may be lonely, you may fall down and cry, but do not give up. The presence of a goal other than procreation distinguishes us humans from mere animals.

Life is like some Arcade Game
Tuesday, October 2, 2007
Hi. I am surprised that people actually want to read my blog posts, so I guess I will just blog a short post today.
Have you guys played arcade games in the past like Street Fighters? Anyway, the general idea is that after you beat a boss on one stage, you progress to a harder boss on another stage, and so on and so forth, until you beat the final boss, and get your name on the top 10 ranking sheet.
See any parallels between our lives and arcade games? We have to fight through numerous barriers, PSLE, O levels, (OK, I know one reader of this blog will suan me for not taking all the subjects, but that fellow isn't important) Promos, and the As. This is not to mention the various other personal challenges we face on the way, such as whether we should go out during afternoons or evenings.
Right now, I feel terrible. Why? Because there is this damn disgusting thing on my keyboard right now that I am touching. Haha. (For the less intellectually inclined, that was meant to be a joke). But seriously, I thought that after Promos, I can get a nice break, but no, OP has to come, along with Open House. So instead of having a nice break after beating Promos, that nasty boss, I get to fight an even tougher boss now.
I am really tired. I am not some superman. Can someone save me?
