一个灌水的年代

正如俊文所言,class participation=灌水,想到什么说什么,胡搅蛮缠就是王道,反正要让老师觉得他被你appreciated且把你fascinated。今天在gem class我踊跃发言,就为了那10%的class participation。同班的高年级的biz学生的确nb,说话都一套一套,还经常zam一句话全是4-syllable words,听得我五迷三道的。

今天下午在library闲逛,在computer cluster捡到一个2g thumbdrive和一张内有面额30$的cashcard,我居然全都交给了on-duty的人,简直受不了我自己了

总有那么一些别人的日志,让你泪流满面

 比如最近老看到人写长跑马拉松一类,眼见渣打马拉松又在迫近,不由得不感叹天意弄人。不知道我这辈子还有没有机会跑。

好难

才只是MLE1101,才只是introductory material engineering,才只是tutorial 1,就让人做的抓破头皮。atoms在很诡异平面里诡异的排列着,每道题几乎都visualise到头大。

为什么rjc的人怕下雨

这是我j1时候同学讲的笑话,答案是rj的人走路都鼻孔朝天

那时候还很懵懂,觉得自己认识的rj人和这个形容简直是平行线,不搭边。

今天,平行线还真TMD相交了。rj嘛,牛嘛,看不起我们neighbourhood jc,心里是不是在想hyp的AO没录自己真是瞎了狗眼无奈堕落到与我们为伍了?

貌似Google calendar支持starhub了?

No pork?

 

今日的小炒家,明日的Soros

Somehow转到wu qingwei的blog,看到他的一篇entry是关于自己炒汇的,Orz

看到他写自己的第一桶金是短线usd/jpy,涨了12个基本点后卖出。我们算一算

今日牌价,usd/jpy=124.26
假设他有124260jpy的本金,卖出,得到1000usd
涨了12个基本点,买入,得到123380jpy
逃税/没税/whatever,利润120jpy=0.965usd

再假设,他用看汇盘时间做tuition
每小时毛利15sgd=9.80usd,看盘+分析时间=做tuition时间=1小时
若炒汇本金在10.2kusd以上,就达到时间盈利化利用。

当然炒汇可以边吃东西边聊msn边挣钱,属于SOHO阶级,迎合年轻人心理。我也有点想从地摊粗犷式经营向资本集中型发展,回头要向他讨教一下。

试看将来的环球,必是ppc的世界

课程表,可以用google calendar sync 到ppc,随身携带。

pgp的电视机,可以方便而装b的遥控。

Lecture无聊了,开msn聊一会儿,还能在校园里随时随地skype。

在Ssc等着办study loan,想打发时间还能用ppc写blog。

等google doc支持ppc browser的时候,就是ppc彻底godlike的那一天。

世间最恐怖的事情

就是我发现我的脚居然长大了半码! holy Allah!

坐拥5双总值超过700sgd但都小了半号的顶级足球鞋乃是世上最可悲之事。

好歌又一首

一首不错的女声

Es Ist Ein Schnee Gefallen

Es ist ein Schnee gefallen
Und es ist noch nit Zeit
Man wirft mich mit den Ballen
Der Weg ist mir verschneit.
 
Mein Haus hat keinen Giebel
Es ist mir worden alt
Zerbrochen sind die Riegel
Mein Stüblein ist mir kalt.
 
Ach Lieb, laß dich's erbarmen
Daß ich so elend bin
Und schleuß mich in dein Arme!
So fährt der Winter hin.

雪花飘落第一片,
青春不再逗留。
当雪似球成团涌向我,
我深陷积雪,举步维艰。

家无楣窗御风雪,
旧舍难掩凄凉;
插销亦断亦碎难维系,
小屋怎奈严酷刺骨寒。

君当怜我于此时,
处境悲惨又身心虚弱。
快带我入你的臂弯,
让那冬天逃亡。

补记

还有个小细节
 
Dell Corp 是IT and us里面一个重要的case study。老师介绍到这个,不无装逼的说自己sort of meet and talked to michael dell。我就心想林北还几乎和michael dell当校友呢,干。DEW~~~

time to 不要脸

刚发现我们层住着个德国佬Sait Baskaya,且刚被选为cluster leader。打算缠着他练练口语了。

It's getting tough.

I left my dorm at 730am and returned around 830pm.

Deep-frozen in LT7A, I rushed to YIH and ordered 2 cups of coffee at one go. I gulped a mouthful of steaming black coffee and more than half of a cup was gone and this stunned my stranger tablemate.

Caffeine revived my neurones and I started to recall what the Chinglish-spoken lecturer had mumbled. It's already Chapter 2 and it hasn't yet got rid of A-Level chemistry.

During the lecture of IT and Us, the lecturer reiterated that this module would require high English proficiency and verbal fluency. The sm* guy adjacent to me, who was complaining and cursing about his failure in QET, suddenly sat straight and uttered, "I'm [pro-fi-sient]."

After another cup of coffee though without dinner, I rushed to FASS and had my first german lesson in NUS. Ms Linda Schaumann was a charming lady with a pleasant sense of humour. I had a small talk with her in Deutsch before the lesson started and this made her deeply suspicious about my German standard. I had to swear to her I had never learnt German systematically.

Food in The Deck was rumouredly tasty. Having a sore throat and severe coughing, I decided to "cut the diamond with diamond" and ordered hot spicy chicken rice from the Sichuan cuisine stall.

And what happened later was hilarious. I was leaving The Deck and saw a bus stop at the roadside and seemingly there were people alighting and crossing the road in front of the bus though the door was shut. So I hurried my steps and gestured the driver I was about to jump in. Apparently, the driver hesitated and gave me a confused look. But he gave in after seeing my determined face and opened the door. When I had boarded, he told me to wait for buses at bus-stop next time, instead of hopping on at a zebra-crossing.

I decided to re-capacitate my English writing by putting a couple of entries in English, maybe in my poor German as well.

When memory lies

Erinnerungstäuschung = commemorative delusion
aka  déjà vu
 
It feels sad when my memory lies.

不买课本的计划终于破灭

天杀的LAG1201居然一定要用Eurolingua Deutsch 1,我足足找了一下午也没找到电子版,放弃了,去ebay淘一本得了。
