Bad Work, Good Peppermint Oreos
Im here to do some publicity for this bubble tea shop at bishan which is pretty near bishan north CC. They sell bubble tea at frigging 1 dollar each, and they do my favourite peppermint oreos are ONE FIFTY!! Their pearls suck ass though, but seriously, its still worth it.
Anyway work turns around to bite me in the ass cuz the stupid manager or whatever his weird ass post is emailed the staff telling them not to talk to the temp while he is working. That is seriously the most stupidest thing you can do as a manager. You're supposed to make the new people feel at home, not try to alienate them. I noticed also how he called me a "temp", as though I had no bloody name. Even if i dont have a name at least I have a brain, asswipe.
AND, when I really do WORK, I do WORK. I dont chit chat.
Seriously, the only bad thing about work is working for someone who is that much less competent and intelligent then you. In short, someone you have no respect for.
And the bloody onePA(One Peoples Association *cues for pukes*) intranet we use is so bloody fucking slow. I mean slow like watching 2 fat people fuck kinda slow. Can you imagine EVERY BLOODY community center in Singapore connected to one PUNY server somewhere in the Istana or where-ever they keep the fucking thing?
I tell you NYPians, if you thought CMS was bad, let Ben Wong show you something worse. This seriously is CMS's ancestor.

Work!
Has been exciting only because of the fact that its my first real job. Otherwise its pretty mundane. I slave for Bishan North CC, so anytime you guys wanna do a prank call you can call Bishan North to piss me off. Im expected to organise things, which I can do, but rather NOT do, as seen by the state of organisation of my room.
I meet a shitload of extremely weird people in the customer service/admin line. The weirdest one yet was this guy who wanted to be a CC volunteer and seemed slightly deranged cuz he was giggling to himself when we explained how volunteering worked. He couldnt understand what "volunteer" meant cuz he kept asking whether he had to pay to join, or whether he had to come down the moment they asked him. You had to be there to see it for yourself.
Colleague wise, theres Andy, a 27 year old chinese speaking fella whos very prim and proper. Theres Callis, who sounds like she got her name from an STD, but she is in fact quite bubbly and attractive and she doesnt at all have the demeanour of a manager, in a good way. Then theres jonathan, a fat guy who holds the same rank as callis and holds a business degree with a minor in philo. I enjoy talking with him cuz hes got real interesting views on life and politics.
Also present are the stereotypical "mother" of the workplace; An elderly lady by the name of Madam Teo who knows little about computers but does everything so well by the sheer power of her 40 years of experience. Then theres Hatta, a malay guy whos quite the pleasant joker, but serious when it comes to work I guess.
These are the few Ive come to work well and know I guess, as far as I can for 2 days. More to come soon!

5 Great Ways To Stay (Or Become) Slim
In this post I regurgitate information Ive learnt from watching a documentary on Channel News Asia which has the same title as mine. Have you ever wondered why some people seem to be able to eat so much more then someone else and perpetually stay thin no matter how much it seems they eat? We conveniently put the blame on something we call metabolism. Most of us dont really know what it means, but there are so many other people that say the same thing, so that HAS to be the reason. The show loosely defines metabolism as the amount of energy the body expends when doing stuff. Then they go on to prove that metabolism is NOT what causes fat people to be fat.
TEST 1: Scientists take 2 women in a small scale experiment, both of them having ostensibly similar calorie intake, but one of them is a fatass and one of them is a bag of bones. The fatass blames her figure on low metabolism. Their metabolisms are measured, and its found that they both have almost exactly the same levels. They let them both drink a non-radioactively labeled water which measures the amount of calories you take into your body. After a set period of a day or something, their calorie intakes are measured and it shows that fatass has 1.5x the amount of calories taken in as compared to the skeleton.
FINDING 1: Scientists say that much of the time, weight gain/loss differences between 2 people have almost nothing to do with metabolism, but because of what they eat, eating practices and how much they eat at one sitting. They have concluded this not just cuz of this one experiment, but because of several others, involving larger groups of people.
TEST 2: One way to stay off food and snacking is obviously to stay fuller for long. So how do you do just that? Two groups of people were taken. One group takes solid food, followed by a glass of water while the other takes the solid food, grinds it up and mixes it with the water to form a sorta lumpy soup.
FINDING 2: The group taking the soup was found to stay fuller for longer, because water on its own simply passes through your system, but when made into soup, causes the body to take longer to digest the food. Why this is so I couldnt personally understand, because Im under the impression that food with smaller surface area (ground) should have more area in contact with the digestive enzymes and therefore should be faster. Oh but who am I to argue with doctors?
TEST 3: 3 volunteers were given meals divided into 3 groups: Carbohydrates, Fats and Protein (Plain Pasta, Pasta with cream and Pasta with chicken respectively). They were then quizzed on how hungry they felt after the meal.
FINDING 3: Protein was found to keep people full for longer. I dunno what comes second and third. But the bottom line is to have more protein in your food.
TEST 4:
Two groups of volunteers were given chicken drumsticks to eat. There was no great difference in the drumsticks in the way they were cooked or whatever. The only difference between the two groups is that one of them threw their chicken bones into a bowl that was left in front of them, whereas the other group had their chicken bones cleared away.
FINDING 4:
The group with visual cues to how much they had eaten (bowls left there) ate less then the group which had their bowls taken away. The difference in how much more was eaten was 10%. While it may not seem like a stunning significance, I guess it all adds up one way or another.
TEST 5: Two groups of volunteers were given popcorn to eat while watching a movie. One group, had fresh popcorn in a regular cup, while the other had 2-week old stale popcorn in larger volume in a large cup. The cups were collected at the end to see how many were empty.
FINDING 5: A huge amount of empty larger cups were collected. I cant remember the exact % difference, but it was much much more. This, in spite of the fact that the larger cups had stale popcorn. The reason for this was that people eat more when larger portions are given. Therefore, put less on your plate and youll eat less, according to the theory. Doesnt work for me tho, Ill just go and take more if Im not full after 1 serving lol
TEST 6:
Several volunteers drank milk together with their meals and their faeces (shit) were collected. The fat content excreted was measured.
FINDING 6:
The bunch of people who drank milk together with their food had more fat in their shit. This is because calcium binds to fat, interfering with the fat absorption process in our body. I wonder if it works on soya bean milk tho.
So there you have it! 5 ways to keep slim!

Sundial Dreams
Awww...like, I youtube-messaged a guy who posted a vid of himself playing sundial dreams asking for the score, and not only did he give me the score, he gave me an mp3!
How nice was that!
Out of gratitude, heres Johnny Wong, a self taught pianist like me, with "sundial dreams"!

You Dont Know Me Any More Then I Know You
Oh people think they know me, but they are all wrong. We all have our reasons for doing the things we do, and the psychologist-wannabes of the world all try, albeit futilely, to understand these reasons.
But really, who can completely understand another? Theres no one who can completely read another like a book, simply because humans ARNT books.
But ah, Ive been wronged before; When things appear awry, and the little angel cries and people flock to her, trying to soothe her and alleviate her pain. No one cares for the devil, for he HAS to be the one causing her pain; What other reason could there be? No one bats an eyelid for his pain, for he appears strong on the outside. And the mortal infidels sometimes try to play hero, try to play mediator in this Heavenly battle that does not concern them at all.
Such is the way of life for us.
But amidst the sorrow that we wallow in, God has given us beauty and love to guide us always. Look at the gardener! A wrinkled old dame, frolicking in her gardens, trimming her verges, tottering around and snipping off the offending flora with pinpoint precision.
Ah! What was that again? Snipping off you say? Well thats just it then, isnt it! A plant, a form of life, just like us humans, might sometimes be plagued and afflicted by all manner of diseases or decay. The gardener, in all her wisdom, removes this desecration of its beauty before it ravages the plant like a cancer.
But is it not cruel, you say? That it's arm or leg should be amputated with or without its consent?
Nay, my friend. It is for the greater good, for if that which hurts the plant so much, threatening it even with oblivion, is not removed, then only one end is certain for it. If it were cursed and blessed with the dichotomy that manifests itself as our nerves, then it would scream and scream till it could scream no more, but then, it would be alive.
It would be alive.
So then our heroine, saint of her little garden kingdom, turns away, content that once again her backyard Shangri-La is saved. But little does she know that the plant curses her.
ultima.

Crimewatch Is Mindless Propaganda
I was watching Crimewatch, a local production that showcases how extremely stupid people get caught by our "meticulously vigilant" police force that somehow allowed Mas Selamat to stroll out of our little island.
They were showing how three stupid indian men got caught robbing foreign workers of their work permits and selling them. While that concept is actually a good way of earning extra income, it is in no way of making a living. However, being hopelessly lost in the bottom of the intelligence pool, they decided to do just that.
In order to accomplish their harebrained schemes, they had to rob multiple people. That wouldnt have been so bad if not for the fact that they:
1.) Didnt wear any masks while robbing people
2.) Didnt change their mode of operation
Like hello, even the white trash robbers in the movies bother to wear a sock or stocking over their heads. And it probably isnt that hard to think up variations of how to rob someone. If you keep going up to random foreign workers and demanding they hand over their work permits, the police are going to know immediately theres a relation between all the robberies going on and all the people are going to know your stupid faces. Not just one, but a whole lot of them.
And crimewatch actually had the cheek to point out how great our police force are by stating how quickly it took to nab three mentally retarded robbers.
Atrocious.

Resident Evil Sucks
Okay I just watched Extinction and I cant believe they ended like that. They were so obviously paving the way for ANOTHER movie. The only reason why I put up with the supposed last installment of that horrible series was cuz I thought it was the end.
I just wasted one and a half hours of my life and it looks like I might have to waste another one and a half hours in the near future.

All Religion Is False
Forget religion. It is not good for you.
In order for any organised religion to succeed, it has to make people believe that they need it. In order to do that, they have to make people lose faith in themselves, only then can they place their faith in something else.
So the first task of organised religion is to make you lose faith in yourself, the second is to make it seem like they have the answers that you dont. Finally, the third task of organised religion is to make you accept its answers without question.
They dont allow you to think, because once you do, you start to question the answers they have given. What organised religion doesnt realise is that if you cant even accept your own thoughts, how can you then accept the ideas about the Higher Beings that they tell you about? And thus their plan backfires.
Thus, be not religious, but spiritual.

Bored Religion
Ugh boredom has claimed me like the eagle which has grabbed the tortoise, flying it ever higher and higher, and then letting go.
Ive resorted to taking lives to placate my sinisterly sadistical mind. My brother's sick, so hes drinking this NinJhomPeiPaKao thingy, which is sweet and attracts lotsa ants. So I leave the bottle to lure them, and squash them every 4 hours or so when they've amassed and pile their carcasses onto a plate (dont think people will wanna have dinner at my house after this, but dont worry it isnt the dinner plate, and I do wash it after).
Then, I do a body count. So far, Ive killed around 30-35 on the first trap and about 40 on the second. The third comes in about three hours, and this experiment will prove to us whether it is possible for the ants to run out of soldiers, because the ants in our houses just seem to keep coming and coming.
Ernest, our devout buddhist, would definitely be very upset over my quickening the karmic cycle, but Im bored and Im doing it in the name of science.
In other news, Ive found out that religion, ALL religion, is actually a huge man made farce. More on this in the next post.

Singapore In Wiki
"Singapore is the 17th wealthiest country in the world in terms of GDP per capita. The small nation has a foreign reserve of S$239.3590 billion (US$171.7353 billion). The population of Singapore is approximately 4.68 million"
-Wow! I we're almost to 5 million!
"During World War II, the Imperial Japanese Army invaded Malaya, culminating in the Battle of Singapore. The ill-prepared British were defeated in six days, and surrendered the supposedly impregnable "Bastion of the Empire" to General Tomoyuki Yamashita on 15 February 1942 in what is now known as the British Empire's greatest military defeat."
-Greatest defeat lol. I didnt know we were that important to them.
"Some offences can lead to heavy fines or caning and there are laws which allow capital punishment in Singapore for first-degree murder and drug trafficking. Amnesty International has criticised Singapore for having "possibly the highest execution rate in the world" per capita."
-Omg we've got many ghosts running about!
"Singapore produced about 10 percent of the world's foundry wafer output"
"Singapore is the busiest port in the world in terms of tonnage shipped."
-Busiest? Oh wow I thought we were the 2nd!
"Singapore introduced a Goods and Services Tax (GST) with an initial rate of 3 percent on 1 April 1994 substantially increasing government revenue by S$1.6 billion and stabilizing government finances."
-Oh, so how many % is it at now bitch? So I bet now its even more "substantially increased"
"Singapore is the second-most densely populated independent country in the world after Monaco, excluding Macao and Hong Kong, which are special administrative regions of the People's Republic of China."
-Monaco is a French country.
"English is the most common language in Singaporean literature. Public signs and official publications are in English, although there are translated versions in other official languages. However, most Singaporeans speak a localised hybrid form of English known as Singlish ("Singapore English"), which has many creole-like characteristics, incorporating vocabulary and grammar from Standard English, various Chinese dialects, Malay, and Indian languages. The government has consistently tried to discourage the use of Singlish in its "Speak Good English" campaigns, however mostly failing."
-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA MOSTLY FAILING INDEED
-A creole is something like how we incorporate and assimilate english into our culture and somehow twist it to make it native to us, and also how we use it to bridge language barriers by inserting other dialects and languages into the main english.
"Private ownership of satellite dish receivers capable of viewing uncensored televised content from abroad is illegal."
-So means Micah cannot anyhow tune the TV to receive shit it shouldnt la ;p
"Scuba diving is another recreation, particularly around the southern island of Pulau Hantu which is known for its rich coral reefs."
-Wow I didnt know they had that! But erm...doesnt hantu mean ghost??? wtffff
"Plans for tall buildings must be reviewed by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore. No building in Singapore may be taller than 280 metres."
-Hmm didnt know that.
So there you have it! Singapore in Wikipedia!
-Wow! I we're almost to 5 million!

Wasted!
No I havent been playing GTA. What I DID waste was a shit load of time cuz ch introed me to Monster Hunter Freedom 2. Its a gargantuan waste of time. Its a bloody time sink is what it is. You go around on wild moose chases cuz you want to collect their antlers and the fucking bosses run from one area to another.
Can you imagine Majordomo Executus fleeing at 20% to Rag and pulling him? Thats EXACTLY what these fucking mobs in MHF2 do.
But on the bright side there are 2handed hammers (maces) that you can use to pummel enemies that hits with a satisfying thump and crushing their fucking balls. Oh yeah, its like everyone has a Sulfuras replica.

Big Money Matters
So I was just sitting back and watching Money Mind, and for the first time in my life, I actually UNDERSTOOD what they were talking about, and all the implications of so. I paid attention, and this little device in my head started recording everything, then passing it on to the adjacent machine which analysed the data.
I started to comprehend the world of finance and the stock market, and in this brilliant light of comprehension, it started to rain.
It rained money.
It rained blue 50 buck notes, and green notes that were american dollars. Then I wondered why it didnt instead rain 1000buck notes and then it hit me that Ive never seen a 1000SGD note before. I know, Im a frog in a well, but once I get rich it WILL rain 1000 buck notes.
Anyway, money mind really showed me how reading "Stock investing for dummies" relates to the real world. Like, Asia pacific breweries sets up a factory in laos, therefore you have increased production and increased revenue. However, if the laotian government decides to pass a new law like no alcohol consumption cuz their youths are fucking their siblings, then profit goes down and therefore stock prices go down.
Its really all interconnected, and its kinda cool to find out how.

Cut Them Out
If people are giving you problems, cut them out of your life. I just did it to three of them a while ago, and I feel free.
Really, its easy. Singapore is a really big place, youll never see them again.

Not My Toothbrush, Please
I HATE it when people use my toothbrush. I dont care if its by accident. Ill wash it, dip it in bleach, acid, whatever works until your stain, your desecration of my holy cleanser is GONE.
GONE GONE GONE GONE GONE.
And then Ill throw it away.
MEANWHILE
Other things are pissing me off, i.e. the fucking remote control for my Toshiba Aircon. Can you believe me if I told you theres no way to change the batteries cuz theres no compartment that can be opened? The only way to change the batteries, I think, is to smash it open. It wont really need changing then though, but at least Ill figure out how it opens. Its bound to happen within the next 30days, when my patience wears thin.
PS: Dont laugh at me. Im a level 375 engineer. =D

Because Im A Better Warlock
Lets begin this post with the moral of the story, instead of putting it at the end. The moral of the story is:
"Dont argue with me when Im a better warlock then you and ESPECIALLY if youre stupider."
This warlock noob named warlia did something I did not agree with (using a useless curse on a boss), meaning he was in the wrong automatically.
I have no idea what "polite asshole" meant, but im assuming hes asking me to be polite! Haha! Whats even more amazing is that he said he wanted to fuck me twice, and would even do it thrice for free!
After a while I noticed him using his fucking wand instead of casting. So I couldnt help but make fun of his stupidity.

Working Out With Your PSP - A How To Guide By MouldyBread
Have you dreamed of having nice arms and biceps you could let your girlfriend hold on to but couldnt find the time to train em up?
Well, now you can! All you need is:
1.) A Sony Playstation™ Portable
2.) An addictive game that you love
3.) A bag of groceries/miscellaneous shopping items
4.) Something to lean on
I discovered this amazingly effective method whilst on the train. I was holding on to a bag of groceries in one hand and a bag of clothes in the other. I leaned on the pole and fished out my PSP from my bag and started playing...and playing.........and playing.......................and playing.
BOOM! Before I knew it, the train had arrived at sembawang, all the way from Orchard! I had been doing a bicep curl for half an hour with weights on either side! As reality began to form distinct shapes around me and the surreal images of the battlefield disappeared, the pain and muscle ache set in, but that didnt stop the fact that I had done something I wouldnt normally have been able to.
So in summary, all you need to do is hold some bags in your hands, lean on someplace comfortable, and play! If you want you can even take it further by doing it at home with rice bags or something while leaning on your cupboard!
When you get your toned arms after 3 weeks, you can feel free to drop a comment on my blog and tell me how wonderful it was. Hahaha....
