Life's A Mario Game

Hi all,

Today is some english e-learning I need to complete, but first, I shall show you a picture.

Look at this picture! So many colours! So pretty!

Anyway, I am a Visual and Musical learner, but apparently, I don't know myself very well... Then again, I did complete the quiz in a hurry. :D So I guess my best study style will be using mind maps. However, I do feel that this quiz is rather disorganized, and the five different answers to each questions is rather unclear, such as "that describe a little about me" "that describes all lot about me", just use agree, neutral, strongly disagree, etc! And maybe organize the similar type of questions together, so that the answerer do not have to switch from one thinking mode to the other. (haha! 106 words!)

And switching topic immediately... Here is a poem about Tom Robinson!

Tom Robinson, a decent black man,

Lived in the times of the Ku Klux Klan.

He settled in the Maycomb county,

But he was looked down by the townies.

After all, he is a black,

And my friend, that is a fact.

Separated by their color,

The whites saw themselves as the center.

Despite the existing racism,

Maycomb remained a peaceful system.

Suddenly one day, Tom Robinson,

Was accused of an lowly action.

He supposedly raped a white lady,

But evidence shown were really cheesy.

However, even he had the best lawyer,

Tom was convicted, because of his color.

He took his chances, and climbed the rail,

Shot down he was, and died in the jail.

Boo hoo hoo, what a sad poem... And now I shall show you more picture!

It is a map of Maycomb! Why did I do it? I don't know... Anyway, this is the end of the post!

Cheers,

Ziying,

Hi all,

I shall be discussing about the issue of PROCRASTINATION today.

Do not laugh! Do not Scoff! Procrastination is a very serious issue! Why, if the power of procrastination can be harvested, the world will have no more need for fossil fuels! We will have zero carbon emission! And the world will be a greener one! Why stare at the sun (and burn your eyes) to look for new energy resources when there is a unlimited supply of it in each and every one of us? The power of procrastination will never run out! It will always be easy accessible, day or night! And everyone, young or old can contribute to a greener world!

Support a greener future! Support Procrastination!

Okay... Got a bit too far over there. Anyway, Procrastination is a power not to be messed with, why it is even CONTAGIOUS!!! (as demonstrated in the following comic slides.)

(Click on the images to enlarge them. Credits to Phdcomics.com)

Let's hear it from other sources:

Wikipedia:

Procrastination refers to the deferment of actions or tasks to a later time. Psychologists often cite such behavior as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting and/or completing any task or decision. There are three criteria for a behavior to be classified as procrastination: it must be counterproductive, needless, and delaying.

Dictionary.com:

pro⋅cras⋅ti⋅nate

[proh-kras-tuh-neyt, pruh-] Show IPAverb, -nat⋅ed, -nat⋅ing.

–verb (used without object)
1. to defer action; delay: to procrastinate until an opportunity is lost.
–verb (used with object)
2. to put off till another day or time; defer; delay.

As you can see, procrastination is a very fearful thing indeed. It is counterproductive, unneeded, delaying, could cause in opportunity lost and is contagious! How much worse can it be! It is like the road to failure which is made of a giant magnet and every one of us is wearing metal!

How can we stop it? Why, by taking off your giant suit of metal of course! You will be no longer attracted to the road of failure! No, I do not mean that literally, (even though if you are really wear a giant suit of metal, take it off now, that is this new material called cotton that had being invented in the last century.)

Look in your room now, what is bright, shiny, and full of metal? Why your computer of course! Yes, the computer you are sitting in front of right now. Yes, the one that you are reading my blog with. And yes, if you have a tab opened to Wikipedia article about procrastination, one opened to Dictionary.com, four opened when you clicked the comics and one tab that you are reading right now, which is my blog,a source of procrastination, you are most definitely procrastinating.

So you want to fight procrastination? Then throw your thousand dollars worthed laptop/desktop out of the window, take a hammer and smash anything made of metal in your house, lock yourself in your own room (along with your homeworks), then proceed to smash the keys to pieces, take out your pen and start doing your homework, when you are done, then proceed to smash the smithereens out of the pen, the lock on your door and lastly the gate. Now that felt good didn't it? You just completed work that you would have delayed months and months after didn't you? Oh, you want to share the joy and experience to others? Then what better way to do it then to take the sledgehammer and your new-found wisdom to other people's house and destroy their source of procrastination?

Oh me? What about my house? Is it full of metals? Never mind, you do not need to care about me, no need to come to my house and smash everything, as a matter of fact, I already signed a contract with a scientist to be the future source of energy! Yes, in fact, when he had finished developing the technology to harvest procrastination, I will be supplying all your energy needs!

Energy needs for what? Erm.... For your wooden appliances, wooden tv, and wooden laptop of course! Go on! Don't mind me! Go forth and spread your wisdom in avoiding procrastination! Make me proud!

Cheers,

Ziying

Hi all,

This is a blog updates summary, even though technically my previous two posts are somewhat about blog updates, their purpose seems to be more of criticising html's user unfriendliness and the Youtube's evil plot to take over the cyber world. Hey, they went pretty off-topic... Hmm....

Anyway, here are the summaries of my blog updates!

1.Blogskin

Well, is elaboration really needed? Seriously, would you prefer the same old black, dark, boring, blogskin with practically no pictures at all OR do you like this new blogskin with pictures of Mario and Luigi fighting Bowser and Bowser J.r with BOMBS and in RACING CARTS!?Seriously, look at it! It is Mario! And Bombs! And Racing Carts! How can you not like that?

2.Music Player

The update that gave me the most trouble.

More than twelve hours spent initially, from picking websites that supply music players, to creating accounts, to creating and carefully picking musics and repeatedly trying them out in my blog to make sure they work.

After that, there was Youtube's case of not letting people play their songs without displaying video, which spent me about a quarter of a day figuring that out. (Half of that time was spent swearing at html's user unfriendliness as I thought the problem lied within the html template in my blog.)

But now it is up and running! With my favorite songs I might add. Stay and Listen!

3.Tagboard

Basically, this is more of a attempt to balance out the side effect of the new blogskin as it permanently removed the ability to comment. And since I am not a html expert, I have absolutely no idea how to retain the "comment" button below each post, so a tagboard is now present at the sidebar to make up for that.

4. Hit Counter

And Lastly, hit counter! To show how many people have visited my blog! :3

Cheers,

Ziying

Hi all,

As your ears would have probably told you when you entered my blog, the music player is up and running again! Woot! *Cheer!*

Well, as it turned out, the mistake was not in the html. It was Youtube and their obsession with total-internet-dominance. Those twisted Youtube administrators want you to surf the net without being able to find one page that does not have their logo. And when you do click their logo, you will be linked to this. Argghh! The utter horror of it all! No one will be spared!

Anyway, it was because Youtube decided that music sites and music players cannot play songs that was obtained from Youtube without showing the video along with the song. And Mixpod (where I got the music player from) can do nothing but stare as Youtube spread their evil wrath across the land.

By now, you are probably wondering, "But good sir, what have all this got to do with your previous music player failing to play songs?" I am getting to it. As you know, my previous music player was the Black Ninja, the most honorable of all music players and one who adhere strictly to the code of honor and justice. He was onto Youtube's evil plan all along, but Youtube and their army of html experts(a.k.a nerds) had sent waves after waves of monsters(html codes), and had managed to mute our warrior of justice and rendered him unable to alert the internet surfers about the evil plan.

Youtube gave him a choice, either start carrying a television, showing the Youtube videos along with the songs he play and having to bear the logo of Youtube, or be silenced forever. He chose the latter. So he stayed on the blogs, not saying a single word, not playing a single song. He knew all about the things that are going to happen, that will happen, while the rest of us are swearing at the creator of html for making html so user-unfriendly.

And now, his time is up, and the people on the internet, one by one, deleted his code, and replaced him with the music players that had sided Youtube, having no idea the sacrifice the silent ninja had made. And now, he is nothing but a mere memory.

But someday, when Youtube had dominated the internet, when all hope is lost. He will rise from the dead(recycle bin), and slay the Youtube Dragon! Bringing peace to all!

R.I.P

The Silent Black Ninja

Awesome story writer

P.S- If you are wondering, this is not the awesome storyline I promised in the previous post, I think I will show you guys that in the next post.

Hi peopz

2010-01-13T05:35:00.000-08:00

Hi all,

I decided to start blogging again, becuz our english teacher will give us lots of points for blogging, so to get the points I most blog, which I am doing now.

Ok crap, this new requirement about blogging in good english is seriously interfering with my creativity on writing awesome posts, so if you can bear with me for the rest of the post, I will start polishing my rusty old blog writing skillz.

*Warning-Internetz Slangz, English Teacher concerned about self-preservation should not advance beyond this point.

lulz, much betta, talking in slangz is teh only way to let my creativity flow.

Anyway, what should have being here is an awesome storyline I written, but due to time-constrain, I shall show you people that in the next post.

So now I will be showing you people somethings that changed about my blog from the previous post to this one.

1. Music player is screwed

2. Refer to above

3. No moar.

So anyway, my blog just degraded, thanks to the non-sense-making-html when I tried to get some new songs onto this blog. THANKSALOT HTML INVENTERS! I swear, dealing with

"10101000011101011101101110101112"

is a lot easier than struggling with

"background: #FFFFFF url("http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e94/sergeantcross/Untitled-1-2.jpg");"

HUH!? YOU WANT SOME FFFFFF!? I WILL GIVE YOU SOME FFFFFF!

*************************************************************************************

this is the interwebz blogs supervisiors and we have deleted the following paragraph as it contain vulgarities that are rated not suitable for anyone below the age of 394.Thank you.

And remember, WE ARE WATCHING YOU(R BLOG)

*************************************************************************************

So until I get a class on html again(which I will spend napping), you won't be hearing anything from the black ninja watching you through the screen from my blog.

Final post

Ok, not much fun stuff here.

So after the whole idea was trashed, we got back to work again, after some mindless carrying and newspaper-tossing-into-the-big-rubbish-crate-thingy, we went to do somemore work, and more mindless tossing and then went to the cafe. Although some of the strange people who doesn't know what tired was stayed at the playground and started terrorizing the children. I think they are having their second childhood, others didn't got past their first...

Then, wei yang suddenly had the idea to photograph people for our chinese compo, then everyone had the idea and started taking out their handphone and flashed away, I myself caught my group leader on the wooden horse and dex on the monkey bar, yayz, now I have something to write about for my compo...

So then later, I boutht some french fry, root beer, ice cream, F&N outrageous orange and mixed them all together and stuffed them down,(nah, just kidding.)

So afterwards, when we were all taking the bus back to school, then I started realising that the newspaper collecting site was like in the same region that I lived in, so I asked my form teacher if I could get down the bus, but she was like "all students must proceed back to school after newspaper collecting."

Then when we reached back school, She just said, "ok, you are dismissed, see you on Monday." WTH!!! 8 Words were wat I travelled back all the way for!? What the hell man!

THE END

2009-08-11T04:04:00.000-07:00

Then we got off the bus, got to the block. Then our group leader, was like, you guys go up, I will stay down here and WATCH your bags and make sure they don't get stolen by bad guyzzz. So me and dex went up to Collect La Newspaper.

Actually, collecting newspaper on a Friday seemed like a pretty dumb idea to me, I mean, look, most of the people are out, and like less than one-fifth of the residents answered the doors, let alone donating us newspapers.

But nevertheless, we still collected bags of soft plush toys and newspapers. Must be Dex and his scout uniform, maybe next time, I will wear my judo uniform with me to collect newspaper, then I will be like-"Give me newspaper or DIEEZZZZ!!!!" Suddenly, during the middle of this newspaper collecting business, Dex suddenly forgotten what floor we went to, so I told him it was 15th, he said it was 16th, and we decided to make a 10k in mousehunt bet about it. And when we reached the floor, guess what? I won! Yayzzz, but Dex was suddenly trying all kinds of stuff to get out of that bet, nice try dex, but you will have to be a lot more slippery than that.

Then when we collected finished all the newspaper, we placed them near the road and rrreeeeessssttt. I myself lyied down on the newspaper mountain when dex, tim toh and han wei came up with a idea to bury me with newspaper. Actually I thought it was a pretty fun idea, but our group leader, refused to let us to as he "don't want to be responsible for my death". So the whole idea went down the drain.

Hi all,

Dear Blog Marker, probably by now you will realise that I am just streching one story into 5 or more posts, if you guessed that, then you are smart, if you didn't, then just pretend I didn't say anything at all.

So not long after, Me and Dex got bored of crapping about GH and MT, so we started talking to Aloy Oh in front of us. He was saying how our parade was all screwed up and stuffz...
"O Rly? I didn't realise anything wrong with it."

"Thats becuz you don't anything about marching." (which is true.)

"So what went wrong?"

"During the middle of the march, we got all the beat wrong and started screwing up."(or something like that)

*Long OHHHHHHHHH*

which after that, I got bored, and started placing my face at the air-conditioner, it seemed like a good idea at that time.

Continued...

2009-08-11T03:45:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

So annoyed, today so screwed up, have to revise for math test, have to post 5/10? posts on blog, chinese test on thursday! ARggghhh!!!!

Damn, you can't rush creativity, which is exactly what I am doing now. As you probably know, I had been talking crap for the past post and this, so wait, just let me settle down and think for a while....

Anyway, here is what happened on Friday- La National Day La Newspaper La Collecting.

We were all like going to go to the blocks to Collect La Newspaper when someone actually discovers that one-third of the class was gone, which we shouted out to the bus driver and teachers. Our form teacher was all like "Huh? Who? Shouldn't they be back by now?" Lahzzz, talk about slow reaction...

Then later, when everyone got back to the bus, (which by now I still don't know why they were so late), and we started to go to Collect La Newspaper, and I happened to be sitting with Dexter, who was like still in his Scouts Uniform. Then we started crapping about mouse trap and ghost hunt.

Continued in next postzzzzz.....

2009-08-11T03:44:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

Day3

Day3

My badge has a Latin motto
Hope for the future
The future is hope
Or something

At times black crows try to interrupt
When we sing the National Anthem

It is difficult to maintain
The whiteness of my shoes
Especially on Wednesdays

I must admit there is something quite special
About the bare thighs of hardworking scouts

The Malay chauffeurs
Who wait for my schoolmates
Sit on the car park kerb
Telling jokes to one another

Seven to the power of five is unreasonable

On Chinese New Year
Mrs Lee dressed up
In a sarong kebaya
And sang Bengawan Solo

The capital of Singapore is Singapore

My best friend did a heroic thing once
Shaded all A's
For his Chinese Language
Multiple-choice paper

In our annual yearbook
There is a photograph of me

Pushing a wheelchair and smiling
They caught me
At the exact moment

When my eyes were actually closed

With 31 lines in this poem, it came as
not a surprise that this poem was rather
disorganised one. Some lines are
quatrains, couplets,
triplets and even one-line stanzas.
While it does obey the start of a stanza
is a another idea rule, this poem has no
rhythm when you recite it, and neither
does it have a fixed emphasizing
pattern, so my conclusion is that it is
a free verse.
There are no alliteration, however,
there are a few imagery like
"The whiteness of my shoes"
"At times black crows try to interrupt"

There are no simile, metaphor,
onomatopoeia, personification, idiom.

But there is something similar to
symbolism in this verse.

At times black crows try to interrupt
When we sing the National Anthem

It is difficult to maintain
The whiteness of my shoes
Especially on Wednesdays

This stanzas may symbolize the
"imperfections" of childhood life.

Seven to the power of five is
unreasonable
AND
Thecapital of Singapore is Singapore

These lines captures the naive tone of
the poem.

I feel not exactly in the same way as
him but I understand a tiny bit of his
description of his primary school life.
I felt that many things were not
necessary and that friends and having
fun was the most important...

I used to be in 6 Patience
Yes, that's a class name
One of our weak point is silence
Or that's what they claim
Teachers here don't last a instance
Us they did not tame
They were always at absence
And we all brought our game!

Recess was the only period
that everyone adore
All my classmates freely chatted
Indoor or outdoor
Some took this time and rested
Woke up feeling sore
Especially when disturbed
Middle of their snore

CCA were annoying
That is what I thought
Math,robotics and biking
This three here I sought
I ended up in drawing
Also known as art
We even tried chiseling
My statue was worth naught

But there will be one thing I miss
And that would be my friends
No wonder then I felt amiss
I have no girlfriends...

Note: I really don't have one.

Sigh...

Day 2

Hi all,

yup, you guessed it. More of this Elearning madness. Today I should be talk about my favortie poet.

Jack Prelutsky claims to have hated poetry when he was younger.
His book, Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant and Other Poems, won the 2007 Scandiuzzi Children's Book Award of the Washington State Book Awards in the Picture Book category.

Thesis statement:There must be someone in Jack Prelutsky's life that encourage him to become a poets.

Could it be his teacher?

"In fact there was a time when I couldn't stand poetry. In grade school, I had a teacher who left me with the impression that poetry was the literary equivalent of liver. I was told that it was good for me, but I wasn't convinced. When I rediscovered poetry in my twenties, I decided I would write about things that kids really cared about, and that I would make poetry delightful."

Okay... So the person in his life was definitely not his grade school teacher...*cross out* Moving on...

Was it his wife perhaps?

"My wife's name is Carolynn, and we've been married since 1979. We don't have any children, and we're temporarily between pets. We've owned a couple of dogs and have had several cats."

1979... He began his poetry writing career in 1964. So she was not his inspiration in his life... Out!

Then who was it?

"I discovered writing as a career only by accident when I was about 24 years old. I had spent months drawing several imaginary animals, but one evening I decided to write a little poem to go with each drawing. A friend encouraged me to show the poems to an editor, and when I did, I was astonished to find that the editor — Susan Hirschman — thought I had a talent for writing verse. Susan told me I was a natural poet and encouraged me to keep writing. She published my first book and, 30 years later, she's still my editor."

Oh so the "person" who sparked off his poetry writing career was imaginary animals, an annoymous friend and his editor Susan Hirschman. Wow.... That is a lot of people. But anyway, I was correct!

And now three poems written by Jack Prelutsky that I think are the best!

The Wizard

The wizard, watchful, waits alone
Within his tower of cold, gray stone.
And ponders in his wicked way
What evil deeds he’ll do this day.

He’s tall and thin, with wrinkled skin.
A tangled beard hangs from his chin.
His cheeks are gaunt, his eyes set deep,
He scarcely eats, he needs no sleep.

His fingers wave arcane commands.
Ten boney sticks on withered hands.
His flowing cloak is smirched with grime.
He’s wanted since the dawn of time.

Upon his hat, in silver lines,
Are pictured necromantic signs.
Symbols of the awesome power of the wizard,
Alone in his cold stone tower.

He scans his mystic stalk in trade,
Charms to fetch a demon’s aid.
Seething stews of purplish potions,
Throbbing, pometergic lotions.

Supernatural tracks and tomes
Complete with lore of elves and gnomes.
Talismans, Amulets, willowy wands
To summon sprits from beyond.
He spies a bullfrog by the door
And stooping, scoops it off the floor.
He flicks his wand, the frog’s a flea
Through elemental sorcery.

The flea hops once, the flea hops twice,
The flea becomes a pair of mice.
That dive into a bubbling brew
Emerging as one cockatoo.

The wizard laughs a hallow laugh,
The soaking bird’s reduced by half.
And when, perplexed, it starts to squawk,
The wizard turns it into chalk

With witch he deafly writes a spell
That makes the chalk a silver bell
Which tinkles in the ash and air
Till flash! A fire burns brightly there.

He gestures with an ancient knack
To try to bring the bullfrog back.
Another Flash! No flame now burns
As once again the frog returns.

But when it bounds about in fear,
The wizard shouts, “Begone from here!”
And midway through a frightened croak
It vanishes in clouds of smoke.

The wizard smirks a fiendish smirk
Reflecting on the woes he’ll work
As he consults a dusty text
And checks which hex he’ll conjure next.

He might pluck someone off the spot
And turn him into who knows what.
Should you encounter a toad or lizard,
Look closely, it may be the work of the wizard.

As soon as Fred gets out of bed,

As soon as Fred gets out of bed,
his underwear goes on his head.
His mother laughs, "Don't put it there,
a head's no place for underwear!"
But near his ears, above his brains,
is where Fred's underwear remains.

At night when Fred goes back to bed,
he deftly plucks it off his head.
His mother switches off the light
and softly croons, "Good night! Good night!"
And then, for reasons no one knows,
Fred's underwear goes on his toes.

Be Glad Your Nose Is On Your Face

Be glad your nose is on your face,
not pasted on some other place,
for if it were where it is not,
you might dislike your nose a lot.

Imagine if your precious nose
were sandwiched in between your toes,
that clearly would not be a treat,
for you'd be forced to smell your feet.

Your nose would be a source of dread
were it attached atop your head,
it soon would drive you to despair,
forever tickled by your hair.

Within your ear, your nose would be
an absolute catastrophe,
for when you were obliged to sneeze,
your brain would rattle from the breeze.

Your nose, instead, through thick and thin,
remains between your eyes and chin,
not pasted on some other place--
be glad your nose is on your face!

Yayz! That is all! Creditz!!!

Day1

Hi all,

THIS IS STRICTLY FOR THE E-LEARNING IN HWA CHONG INSTITUTION, IT IS NOT A USUAL FUN-LOVING POST ABOUT MY EVERYDAY LIFE. IT IS A TASK ASSIGNMENT THAT I HAD TO COMPLETE ON MY OWN BLOG IN HWA CHONG E-LEARNING.

The subject is english.

Funny poem, ay?
Anyway, I should be now, sigh, finding out what figurative language is used in this poem.

The hyperbole used are " not pasted on some other place, for if it were where it is not, you might dislike your nose a lot. " "that clearly would not be a treat," "Your nose would be a source of dread" "it soon would drive you to despair," "an absolute catastrophe," All this quote here are used to exaggerate on how bad it would be if your nose is on some other body parts and it allow the reader to feel that your nose is perfect on nose and would catastrophe anywhere else. The symbolism is that your ear is actually a situation. And the places to put the ear is how you can deal with the situation. So you see, a situation on actually neutral, the good or bad outcome completely depends on how you deal with it!

Why I like this poem: Well... The main reason was that it was humourous and comical on the surface, giving the reader a good laugh, however, beneath the surface is actually a moral. "Nothing is bad or negative in nature, it all depends on how you deal with it", a moral that I agree with. "Before you blame other people, you should first look at yourself." A even deeper interpretation of the poem. So you see, this poem is more than meets the eye, and that is why I like it.

Cheers

Animal Farm!

2009-06-11T06:39:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

I know term 2 is over and I need not do anymore post on Animal Farm, but here is a worksheet that Mdm Lim gave us and told us to complete in class. As usual, this could not entertain my fun-loving spirit and my pure talent to screw up badly. So, I decided to satisfy my spirit and talent.

And I screwed up this worksheet badly in a fun way! I just hope that she doesn't call the worksheets back to mark or check....

MUHAHAHAHAHAHA *choke* *sputter* *cough*

Ziying's humor has leveled up! It is now -1! He wants to learn "sacarsm" but his move list are full, forget a move? 1, 2, 3... Poof! Ziying had forgotten "politeness"! Ziying learns "sacarsm"!

Ziying's ability to screw up has leveled up! It is now level 100! He had mastered the art to screwing up! He now can screw up with 150% more efficiency with 99% less effort! Ziying gains trait - "Thick-Faced". "Insults" now doesn't affect him anymore!

Woo Hoo!

Ziying

Guy who leveled up.

P.S: Click on the image to view fullsize, this one works, I swear!

OMG

2009-06-10T07:59:00.001-07:00

OMG!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! okwaitaminuteformetocalmdown....
ok... here goes...

Hi all,

Wondering why am I so freaking_____ (choose your adjective!!!----- *Strange* *PANICKY* *Weird*) today? I will tell you why!!!!
It all started out with Hwa Chong Judo Club's "rich" and "honorable" tradition, (beside the one to bond(you know what I mean, don't act dumb)birthday boy on that day and to spray muscle relaxant found in the first aid box in between HIS legs. OOPS, too much info there. MOVING ON)
Anyway what was I saying? Oh yes, the tradition. The tradition to cut their hair during the June holiday to so-called "prepare" for the inter-school competition during July. It doesn't sound so bad, does it? Well... Here is the catch. You must "cut" your hair until 3mm. Not the just the sides, the whole head. So your head will look like a egg when you are done. And believe I am not lying. The only point of this, I see so far, was to transform "Hwa Chong Judo Club" to "Hwa Chong ShaoLin Temple" That is the only reason I see for this shaving. But according to our senior, RI Judo Club does not shave, so what is the point of looking like the Great Laughing Buddha?
Anyway, being the nice, obedient, respectful and most important of all... humble boy that I am, I went to the barber to get a *ugh* haircut. She was like just using the razor, gliding it across my scalp to give me my new *ugh* haircut. No scissors required. So now I had transformed into... KUNGFU PANDA!!! I am from China, in Judo, fat and look like very weird... And from now on, for my hair I shall use!: "

CLEAR

NO SHAMPOO

I breath..
I move…
I sweat..
with the world watching…
my hair..
my clothes..
i like black..
black is confident…
black looks good..
looking good means no hair
confidence means no hair
clear means no hair
i trust clear..
hair never comes back
my name is Sun…
My head is so shiny that it outshine the sun!

Well... Anyway... I will be wearing a cap when I go out. So if you see someone who you saw in a commercial for shampoo and bare a strange resemblance to Kungfu Panda and wearing a Cambridge/Beijing Olympic cap, look out, I mean look away, I don't want to blind you...

Hi all,

This are the rules and regulations for my tagboard, I will not be touching the common stuff that everyone know are not allowed, like defaming and stuff like that.

2.Advertising for your blog is allowed, but please do not say something like: "yoyoyo come my blog then get$$$!."

3.Spam is defined as anything that contains explicits, vulgars and undesirable content(quoted from Mr.T in assembly all the way back in term 1) and the way of advertising as metioned above.
Yes, talking about non-sensical things are allowed and taking up multiple post is also allowed, but I may delete them if they get really out of hand, but that is it. (TimT is really happy now.)

Mindstorm NXT Creation 2

2009-05-10T07:53:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

Here is my second NXT Creation I did during the holidays! (I would not be posting about my third one for quite some time.)

My second and the one that I am most proud in yet! MG NEST!

I found instructions on the Internet on how to build this, (yup, still not smart enough to create one myself.) This thing is a machine gun, on automatic, it fires away all 10 1*3 blocks in less than 3 seconds. The clip can only hold 10 at a time but an additional 5 can be added when the clip block is removed. The accuracy is 60% when the target is a metre far. The machine gun will tremble a lot when it is been fired and believe me, you do not want to be a target. Even if this thing maybe a toy. The long black stick at the right side of the gun will hit the 1*2 blocks when the touch sensor is pressed.(Press means going down without coming up.) The black stick will spin at 8 revolution per second and it will the blocks, sending it flying. Therefore, the accuracy is not high. Marks will also be left on the blocks. I have tried tieing a tiny piece of eraser to the stick so that marks will not be left. It works, but it reduces the range by 50% and accuracy 10%. Anyway, I also wrote a semi-automatic program. In this program, the stick will only spin one revolution when the touch sensor is bumped.(Bumped means pressed and released.) It is a complete failure, not only it fire two blocks at a time, but with reduced force and 75% of the blocks will not be fired successfully. I think I am sticking to fully-automatic for now.

Mother's Day

2009-05-10T06:42:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

Hey guys how is it going? By now you should be grasping my blog's content, right? I tend to avoid serious or negative stuff and try to make everything as interesting as possible, unless it is very large-scale and I care about it a lot, like Earth-Day. So, in this post, I should be talking about Mother's Day! Not Mother's Day in general but the present I made for my Mom! (YAY! I AM EGOISTIC!)

Initial Idea: 5 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with strings.

I bought 5 flowers on Saturday, came back with it, fill up a bottle with water and left the flowers in it near a window until Sunday. (I actually left them on the carpet but the bottle fell on its own,(seriously), spilling water all over the carpet.) Then today I took the flower out,(they still have not being cut at all, BTW) got some needles and strings and did something crazy with them,(No, not going on a mad killing spree with a needle.)I poke the needle with string through the stem of the flower. I struggled with the strings and trying to keep the flower upright and poking needle through the flower for 1 hour.

2nd Idea: 5 cut flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string, on a platform made of ice cream stick.

Pretty self explanatory, ay? I got some ice-cream stick, arranged two layers, glued them together. Then, I cut the flowers, fumbled with them for a while, realising again that they still cannot stand on their own as white glue ages long to dry.

3rd Idea: (I don't know how did I get this Idea.) 4 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string and secured into position with needles, on a platform made of ice cream stick.

This is by far the most ridiculous thing I did with a needle, I hammered 4 of them into the platform and eventually ended up with 2/3 of the needle on the underside of the platform.

I pulled the needles out again, place the stem in position, and hammered the needles into the stem, into the platform. Now, the flowers are all secured in position but the flower head is not going down enough to form a heart shape and the flowers can freely spin 360 degree.

4th Idea: 4 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string and secured into position with needles, on a platform made of ice cream stick and the flower head is being pulled down by a string tied to it with the other end of the string tied to the needle.

And that is exactly what I did, now, they form a heart shape more or less but they can still spin freely.

5th Idea:4 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string and secured into position with needles, on a platform made of ice cream stick and the flower head is being pulled down by a string tied to it with the other end of the string tied to the needle. The 1 flower left is secured in the central of the platform with a big needle hammered in from the underside. The part where all the flowers meet is tied together.

You get the idea. And by now, I noticed that the strings pulling the flowers down were unnecessary as the central flower is securing their position, but still does not solve the problem of spinning.

6th Idea:4 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string and secured into position with needles, on a platform made of ice cream stick The 1 flower left is secured in the central of the platform with a big needle hammered in from the underside. The part where all the flowers meet is tied together.

The spinning problem is still not solved....

7th Idea:4 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string and secured into position with needles, on a platform made of ice cream stick The 1 flower left is secured in the central of the platform with a big needle hammered in from the underside. The part where all the flowers meet is tied together. Needles were used to poke through the stems at the side along with the central stem.

This is pretty hard to explain, you will get the idea when you see the picture. Then my dad suggest me to write something on it.

8th Idea: 4 flowers tied into a 3-D heart shape with string and secured into position with needles, on a platform made of ice cream stick The 1 flower left is secured in the central of the platform with a big needle hammered in from the underside. The part where all the flowers meet is tied together. Needles were used to poke through the stems at the side along with the central stem. The petals in the flower in the middle were spread out by hand and a message was place in it.

YAY! Photo time! Now you will get what I mean!

Click on the picture, you will get what I am trying to say the whole time. Believe it or not, I actually made this with next to no or NO planning at the start! Sorry, I am not that good at describing stuff. And plus, a picture is worth a thousand word, YAY TECHNOLOGY!!!!

Animal Farm

2009-05-09T07:31:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

In this post, in order to meet the criteria of the blog posts, I am FORCED to talk about Animal Farm. I will try to make this as entertaining as my low-levelled creativity allowed, ok... Here goes nothing!

There was a story about animals,
Food been given to them was minimal.
The farmer was cruel, and they suffered,
He used to be good, now he's a drunkard.
A pig called Old Major had an idea,
All animals will get the same quota.
Food,Water,Work load will all be the same,
For all animals that is what he aimed.
They were all inspired and they unite,
The pigs became leader, it seemed alright.
Finally, one day they all revolute,
Out went Jones who changed after a lawsuit.
Oh the Joy! They galloped, they slept, they ate,
Mr Jones' reign they all then cremate.
Snowball, Napoleon, Squealer were leaders,
They gave out instructions to all creatures.
They memorised Major's every sentence,
Turned them into The Seven Commandments.
At first Animal Farm started out well,
But after corruption it became hell.
Snowball, he was expelled by vicious dogs,
And Squealer used his talent to befog.
What really took place,helping Napoleon,
His cruelty had stained the ground crimson.
The animals were no longer equal,
The pigs had their rations more than doubled.
The utopia that everyone hoped for,
Was actually even worse than before.

Is there anyone still alive!? Hello!? It was a little too boring...

Cheers,
Ziying

Mindstorm NXT Creation

2009-05-09T02:27:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

Remember the Mindstorm NXT Creations I promised to show you guys? Well here it is! But first, this is a photo of my Mindstorm NXT Set!

Looks like a bunch of crap and stuff, right? Right! They are a bunch of crap and stuff, but with a manual, hand, and an incredible amount of free time, those small craps becomes a big crap!

Here is its entry on my short-attention-spanned journal.

My first official creation! SPIKE!
It is Spike the scorpion! Able to climb walls and shoot deadly corrosive poison! Not really... The claws are just for decorations purposes and they do nothing except getting in its own way. The tail, however, can shoot out and retract. The tail uses Motor A and it will move 70 degree for the tail head which is the touch sensor, to attack just in front of the head. It work like this.
First, it would "walk" for about 3 seconds, then it will scan for anything in its path within the range of 15cm. The head is actually a ultrasonic sensor. If there is an object within the range of 15 cm, Motor A will activate, sending the tail shooting in front. Here is when the touch sensor come in, when the touch sensor hit something, the tail will immediately retract, if it doesn't, it will land on the ground and the tail will retract anyway. Then, it will turn 90 degree left and continue "walking" on.
Some problems and adjustment are that it move really slow and that turning is not its strong point. An adjustment had to be made with the ultrasonic sensor. The original version called the head to facing 45 degree upwards instead of parallel to the ground. This thus messes up the distance from an obstacle it obtains from the scanning, some obstacles which are too short will also be missed. It works fine after the adjustment. Another problem was that some obstacles might just be out of range for the trigger range. Therefore Spike will move forward for another 3 second and it will knock into the obstacle and look very stupid as the legs moved on and on while the head is forced against the obstacle before it does another scan and realise that something was in its way. This problem was never solved.

2009-05-09T02:11:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

As you can tell from my blog skin, I AM A NINTENDO FAN!!! I have been playing from Gameboy to Gameboy Advance Sp to Nintendo Ds. And I love all Mario's game! Anyway, here are two videos that are both got to do with Nintendo and funny! Enjoy!

Warning! Spoilers in white, view them at your own risks!
This video is about a guy who came back with his new wii! Only to discover that "All assembly are required. After reading the instruction manual which light up the fire in his soul, he started working on it and finally created a wii out lego bricks!

Guess What?: SPOILERS IN WHITE! VIEW THEM AT YOUR OWN RISK!
This video is about a good guy with a white wii controller controling an ice cream seller and spreading the joys of the world(more or less), then came a evil black man whose black wii controller out-controlled the white guy's controller. He made the ice-cream seller do evil things(mostly stupid things). The white guy then challenged and defeated the black guy, erasing him. Him then decided that the ice-cream seller should make his own decision and passed his own controller to him.
I AM A NINTENDO FAN!!!

2009-05-09T01:27:00.001-07:00

Hi all,

Woah! Surprised by all the changes? Blogskin of mario, music player, yup, my blog is new and improved! *Level Up* Anyway, here is the summarise of all the changes.

1.Trashed post template.
Reason: Too troublesome

2.Changed blogskin. With Lots of help from Mathew and guidance from Justin.
Reason: Too you seriously like the old one!?

3.No more label.
Reason: OK... This one wasn't delieberate but when I change the blogskin, I cannot add in the label automatically and believe me going through the template to add in languages that you don't even understand is not normal even by my standard.

4.Songz!
Reason: YAY! Songz are cool! Please at least stay till the third song. I love the first two songs! You guys should really be gratefull, I spent at least 6 hours finding the songs, deciding between imeem and mixpod, which mixpod eventually won and testing it over and over again to make sure it works. Thanks Yi Zhe! For staying up in the night to guide me on this!

5.Comments are a no more!
Reason: Ok... As much as I like you guys commenting and reading your comments, I am a total noob at html and I don't know how to insert the comment function, sigh... The changes are not all good...

Well!? 5 big changes and staying up till 12 a.m. and now I am finally satisfied, I shall now work on my posts! Onwards to the brighter future!

It's me,Mario!

Mindstorm NXT

2009-05-09T01:25:00.004-07:00

Hi all,

Today I open a new label called: "Stuff about me". It is basically about what I did and what my room look like. No, I DO NOT HAVE A EGOISTIC STREAK, AND I AM NOT GETTING SELF-CENTERED, it is just that I can't come up with any better name for the label. Maybe you can help me out? Anyway, this is the latest one.
I got a Mindstorm NXT when it was about the end of 2008, actually I was gonna get a PSP but I suddenly felt that a Mindstorm will be cheaper and more fun. So my parents bought me one. It is like $100 more than a PSP, ironic huh. Anyway, I started messing around with the parts during the December Holiday and made about 3 creations. I will be posting about them in the othere posts. But now the mindstorm NXT is safely kept in the closet, along with my other short-attention-spanned stuff, collecting dust. I shall be posting about them in the next post.

Hi all,

Sorry for not posting for quite a long time, my computer has been (if you would excuse the term) screwed up, and installing the 4++GB Adobe CS4 only added to the problem and made it(Warning:Singlish coming up) laggier. Anyway don't anticipate that I will be too active in posting next week either. There is like (Some may consider this explicit or vulgar) freaking 6 tests next week. But at least this post let you guys know that I am still alive and kicking, So There.

Sketches

2009-05-09T01:25:00.001-07:00

Hi all,

As you know, but most likely not, I am rather ok at drawings. Ok, I am nothing compared to those guys at Art Elective programme. I cannot really draw my own things or characters out of thin air. Instead, I am good at copying things, (not tracing, tracing are for kids) everything from 3-D to 2-D,(as if there is anything in between, LOLOLOL geddit?), but I am still not rather skillfull at drawing faces.
Here are some sketches, I hope they do not make you blind...

My first sketch on a 3-D thing, drawn during a very boring geography lecture. Took me about 30 minutets to 1 hour. It is caculator, in case it is too ugly for you to make it out. Not really my finest work...

Drawn today, (I can't find all the sketch between the first one and the second one, so there.) During a very very boring Japanese class. Took me about 10 minutes to 30 minutes. They are the speakers and the computers. Still not good enough...

Ahh... My masterpiece... I drawn this today after the second one when the Japanese Class reaches the climax of boredom, I decided that I had enough of rough sketches, I am going to make a complete work! So I draw and draw and erase and erase. It took me about 2 hours - 3 hours, but it my best work till today! Quick! Click it fullscreen to marvel at it! Quick! By the way, it is a handphone.

Wonder what will I be able to draw next time...

LOL Slices 3

2009-05-09T01:22:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

This happened about one week after "LOL slices 2". After school.*FLASHBACK SCENE*

It was on Tuesday, when I am released at 1.20p.m. on time. I suddenly had a snack attack which I was overcomed by a immense urge to get some fried food. The canteen did not serve fried food and neither did I feel like eating from poolside.(Picky snack attack.)
So I decided to take bus all the way home and I could get off 5 stops before my house to get to McDonald, it seemed like a foolproof plan...
So I got onto the bus and found a seat, the sleepy atmosphere made me (Guess What?) sleepy.
I leaned sidewards, deciding to take a nap...
Huh? Woah, where am I? Holy Crap! I am at the last stop! I got off the bus immediately, Thankfully, that place had a MRT, (Buona Vista), so I could get home without taking too much time.
But I had still not satisfied my snack attack,( It is more like a war by now...), so I went into this giant shopping mall and not mattered how much I searched, I couldn't find McDonald, but there was a Burger King, so I just went in and bought myself a Double Mushroom Swiss, I decided to save it for later and I went for the MRT.
I saw this on the MRT Board just outside the MRT.(You know, those things on top on the ceiling that tells you what train arrive when...)

You don't see that everyday...

Cheers,

Ziying

P.S: Wondering why I wanted to go to McDonald the whole time? They have the EZ-link card reader that you can use to pay your burger. Nothing else

P.P.S: All the details and story at the start was not necessary...

LOL Slices 2

2009-05-09T01:21:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

Ok, I did this about some weeks ago during class. In the morning, I think.*FLASHBACK SCENE*...

Our teacher gave us a assignment, we had to write a composition choosing from seven statements to start a compo and the second draft is graded, so during class, our teacher gave us a piece of story line plan. I chose"Something brushed up against my feet, and my surprise turned to horror when I looked down and saw..."
I sat in class for about 15 minutes thinking and talking to my friends.(Mostly talking.) I was really, really bored and had not much idea to fill it in, so under all this conditions, I created this! (Original idea from me, not from the guy I was talking to, in-case-you-are-wondering.)

Most have watched too many war movies lately...

2009-05-09T01:16:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

This is my first LOL slices, so I will start with a incident that happen all the way back to Primary 6, after the PSLE, *FLASHBACK SCENE*...

CAST
-Dexter(Freakin tall guy, 2m! A bit stingy...)
-Ji Kang(One of my good friend!)
-Zhen Yi(Freakin short guy, 1.2m!)
-Me(Most important guy, very blur!)

So anyway, that time PSLE was over, so we all gathered up to concentrate on our project, we decided to meet up at NorthPoint. So I arrived first and waited , after a while everyone was here. As everyone still hadn't had their lunch yet, we decided to eat at Mcdonalds before buying the materials for our project.
Then, Zhen Yi had the idea of whoever reach Mcdonalds last have to buy everyone drinks.
So the race was on, and for some strange reason, maybe because it involves food, I ran incredibly fast and reach there as 2nd last. Dexter was last.
So everyone was like"YAY FREE DRINKS!", except Dexter of course... Then we all queued up and ordered our burger,no fries, no drinks(For the three of us.) When I got my burger, everyone already found a seat. So I joined them.
I noticed that there were 2 upsized drinks on the table, so I tried the first one. It was empty. And I was thinking"Wow, these guys drink really fast..." I then grabbed the second one, I told from the weight that it was rather full, so I gulped a mouthful."Mmm... Lemon Tea, it will do."
When I said that, everyone was looking at me in a shocked way.
"What!?"I asked.
"Dude, Dexter didn't buy us any drinks, these two drinks were already here when we came to the table..."

The Opening

2009-05-09T01:14:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

Today is a very exciting day, as I now officially open up my "LOL slices". As you know, there are many interesting things that can and will happen in a school life, so from now on; I will post interesting things or humorous things in my life, everything from primary school to secondary school. Remember to check my blog regularly! OH and by the way, please post comments on the posts, I will like to know what you think!

Earth Hour

2009-05-09T01:13:00.001-07:00

Hi all,

As you know(or not),Earth Hour is coming up soon, it is on March 28, 8.30p.m., in case you missed all those commercial everywhere(or live in cave, but if you live in cave, how do you access the internet?), you are supposed to turn off your light for one hour, just one hour. Many business and 80 countries is taking part in this and the organisers hope to get 1 million vote(in another word, switched off light switch), please do you part as every vote counts.(I know this is cliché and stuff, but I can't come up with anything better.)I will be posting this on the class blog too, by the way. Oh and I almost forgot, the link is www.earthhour.org.

Cheers,

[I only put my name because I realise all of my friends put their name on the blog, and no, it is not a girl's name.(Girl's name is Zhi Yi) and all kinds of attempt at ridiculing my name has been done before(Really) so please do not attempt any.]

P.S:Wondering why did I used "[]" instead of "()"? Because I learnt in Mathematics that the bracket outside a round bracket is a square one. ( I know that this is a pathetic attempt at humour, but I cannot think of anything else today.)

The Feast

2009-05-09T01:11:00.000-07:00

Hi all,

The 90th anniversary of Hwa Chong Instituition yesterday was really something. For those of you who didn't want to buy the tickets (talking to my classmates), too bad! You really missed a lot; a lot more than just one page of the newspaper can cover. There was food, (lots of food for that matter). I cannot remember the exact sequence of the events, but there was the singing of the school song, (very very slowly) then there was the buns, the shark fin soup,(yes, I know how they kill the sharks for the fin, thankyouverymuch.),sushi(not the real sashimi, just sushi), sohton and fried stuff(yay fried stuff).
Then was the singing of 满江红, (did I mention that you have to stand up for the songs?) and the string orchestra, can't remember when did they play, too busy concentrating on the food. Oh right, they also served fried fish with pineapple, 佛跳墙, fried duck and broccoli with abalone, (blessing or a curse?)
I can't exactly remember what happened next because I was having a joke telling competition with my friends. Finally, came dessert, (in my opinion, the main course), but my parents (who obviously don't understand the importance of desserts) decided to go home before the official release time so that they will not be caught in the jam,(after all, the 万人宴 kinda give away how monstrous the event will be.) so I was unable to get a piece of dessert.(Curses!)
But our school was full of surprises, they did not just left us on our own to get to turf city where we were recommended to park the cars, they had a fleet (ok, just about 5 or more) of shuttle
buses ready to take us to turf city!
I wonder what our school will do for the 100th anniversary.
