Sigh

You can push all the blame to me and pretend it's totally not your fault. I maybe stupid but I'm not buying into your trick, sorry.
It's amazing how selfish some people can be.


Will try to update soon...
Yeah Marcus is right I'm chiong-ing my Paladin to level 70.

A quaky situation

As I promised, today I will blog a WoW post but that will come later on. My friend just told me that Sandking did an ulti in Singapore - for those who doesn't Dota, it means that an earthquake was felt in Singapore. Two times, and from what I heard Ngee Ann Polytechnic had an evacuation. Huh? Why need to evacuate one... it was that bad meh? I didn't notice that there was an earthquake until Jinfan told me. Clearly the earthquake wasn't large enough to alert me at all. The only earthquakes I noticed were the ones caused by Lesser Infernals falling onto the ground when I killed them. Exorcism is a great nuke ;D

After I heard about the earthquake, I yahoo-ed to see if I can find any news on it yet. I failed, and came across this "Yahoo! Answers" instead:

Why are earthquakes common in Indonesia,not in Singapore?
please answer the most appropriate answers.thx



Powderful engurish. Obviously a Singaporean, presumably a 10 year old who plays Maple Story. Some kind souls actually replied him and as I browse through the answers, one dude posted a chimology one:


fishball

Malaysia-Singapore lie outside the Pacific Ring of Fire - a zone of frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that encircles the basin of the Pacific Ocean, and is shaped like a 40,000 km long horseshoe. It is associated with a nearly continuous series of oceanic trenches, island arcs, and volcanic mountain ranges and/or plate movements. 90% of the world's earthquakes and 81% of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the Ring of Fire.

Indonesia lies between the Ring of Fire along the northeastern islands adjacent to and including New Guinea and the Alpide belt along the south and west from Sumatra, Java, Bali, Flores, and Timor.


I am impressed, but could not extract any personality deduction except that he could be a nothing-better-to-do geologist and he likes fishball. Of course there's always stupid replies, such as this one:


talkaTEETH

We are protected by M'sia and Indonesia. And the people above have answered all the basic geography about earthquakes. pacific ring of fire blah blah blah. =)

Source(s):

Took geography as a core subject in Sec sch.


NERD ALERT! What a smart alec. Protected by M'sia and Indonesia that's why no earthquakes? Anyone with IQ more than 10 can come up with better logic - big shame on your Geography teacher. Typical smart alec Singaporean. Yes, high schools are called "secondary school" in Singapore.

But of course, being a 10-year-old, no-life Maple Story player, the questioner picked the lamest answer which made the most sense to his little brain:

Indonesia is huge compared to Singapore. Pick a Sinapore-sized part of Indonesia at random, and see if it had any earthquakes.

Lamer. Another smart-alec. Jakarta is smaller than Singapore, but we do have Earthquakes there -- often enough. Worst logic ever. And by the way - any country is huge compared to Sinapore Singapore.

If ever we put them Kiasu Singaporeans in Indonesia, boy they will get freaked out by the constant quakes that we have. Can't blame them, nothing exciting ever happens around here in Singapore. People get so bored that they call for Tsunami Alert when they see a tiny surfing wave. And every slightest flu in town is diagnosed as bird flu. *shakes head*


And finally, here are some screenshots that I have accumulated during my journey in land of Azeroth!



Pudge! With a different name... A closer look at the beauty that is WoW I got cursed and became undead for like 5 mins

A ship ride to Auberdine, passing by Azuremist Island WoW environment is top-notch Got rejected by NPC on Valentine's =(

Taking a flight through The Cauldron Flight back to Stormwind The barrier of Dalaran city! Impressive, man!

At Stranglehorn Vale.. I've got a friggin' mount! Ogre owned by my 904 damage crit In WoW, even pigs can swim (my char at Dragonmaw)

Sailing a different boat

Hello everyone.

Well, FYP is somehow over, but instead of being overjoyed I am sitting here worriedly waiting for the result. It won't be out till end of March or early April, and I am aware that there is a chance that I might fail, and not a small one at that. I worked so hard that I forgot to work smart =( I hope to get sufficient rest this holiday, and then maybe prepare for a new project so in case I fail, I would have started ahead of time. The exams have really been a big eye-opener, I actually thought Product Design as a viable future for me despite everyone saying I'm better at graphics. Or rather, 2D compared to 3D.

Last Friday was kind of sad. Well I wasn't sad in the beginning, but some people made me realize what I didn't want to; that day onwards we would all be heading different ways. I never thought poly as something I enjoy, I dreaded to go there and all. And suddenly, without our realization, bonds have been formed between some people - bonds that were created from bittersweet experiences. Bonds I never knew I have. It came to mind I have yet made the same mistake I did 4 years ago; I never cherished the time I had in high school and now that it's been over, I can only miss it so.

Within these short 3 years is a memory of a lifetime - I will always remember Joanne's loud laughter, Frederick being a nice asshole, Daniel's relentless kindness, the Malays talking Malay to me, and a myriad other memories.

Topic ahead: World of Warcraft!
