Extra extra! read all about it

When i first got a forward message on my Yahoo! Messenger about a guy that committed suicide/ jumped off/slipped off( as prefered by newspapers to uphold the reputation of my University), i didn't give a damn.
"So what, none of my business" i thought.

Becaming road pizza after committed suicide/ jumped off /slipped off from the 18th floor of Ixora Apartments just became the hottest topic around campus.

Conversation would go from something like this:
Mel: Wah, budak alpha jump from Ixora leh!
Stan: If it's suicide. He should just donate all his organs first. Maybe even his money.
Mel: If he didn't had money?
Stan: Well it's still dumb by jumping off. The people's money is wasted by using public services.

To this:
Stan: I saw my YM yesterday, tons of people forwarding messages to me about a guy that committed suicide or various other versions. His friendster also forward. Damn mou liu.
Yong Meng: Ya i heard! Gamma or Delta student leh, very active in CLS one.

Even lecturers are interested:
(while in lift)
Mr. Senthil: Prepared for midterms already?
Stan: Of course. It's just 2 days away.
Mr. Senthil: So the boy that jumped from Ixora, he is a FET or FBL student?
Stan: He's a Gamma student for sure.
Mr. Senthil: Oh, I'm still wondering whether he's a FET or FBL student.
(lift opens, i shrugged and left)

TIP:
If you want to kao or chase a person that you don't know in my University, walk up to her and go about with this conversation:
Guy: You stay in Ixora is it?
Girl: Ya ya.
Guy: Yesterday what happened there ar?
Girl: Oh, (various versions of a human falling down from the 18th floor)...
Guy: So where were you when it happened?
Girl: Some place.
Guy: ....(continues)
Girl: ....(continues)
(Proceeds to take down her number)

There you have it-you've just made the initial step.
Preferably if she lives in Ixora Apartments. Tested effective.
*Outcome may vary from person to person. Age factor: 12+. Guy and Girl each sold separately.

How would you want to be remembered?

G.U.T.S.

How exactly to be more successful:

If you tell everyone around you: "I hope to be successful." Then you will surely fail. As your hopes gets bigger, so goes your failure. Because you only hope. Hoping is just a mere qualification of success.
Hope to be --- 60%

The next approach to be more successful is that, you mentally tell yourself:
"I need to be successful." It's ok. But that's not enough. Because sometimes you need to be, sometimes you don't need it.
Need to be --- 70%

Let's look at the next- " I want to be successful." Good progress but there's still a tendency of failure. Again, sometimes you want, sometimes you don't. Some people want more money, some want more property. But at the end of the day after striving hard at it, some just give up and say, "Don't want also nevermind lah."
Want to be --- 80%

" I must be successful !!!". We are getting there. There are people that hope to be, need, want to be and must be successful in what there are doing. But still we didn't make 'being successful' as our top priority. So we grade it:
Must be --- 90%

So we all might be wondering, what's 100%?
...
..
.
Die also want! If we look at many unsuccessful people, they don't have something. They don't the " Die also want!" spirit in them. Take a look at some couples, the guy chase the girl, the girl chase the guy. The parents protest and object to the relationship.
" I don't care. I love her!!!" Some even scream until they can embed their finger nails into the walls and climb walls." I love her no matter what others' say! Die also want!"
Then you'll be successful. If you don't have this spirit, most of your things you do , you can't get it right.

Seen a baby before? If a baby could talk, he/she will say:
" Mommy i hope to drink milk...mommy...mommy..."
Sorry man, mom wouldn't be bothered and fall straight back to sleep.
What usually happens is that the baby will scream and whine:
" WAAAAAAAAA WAAAAA....NYAHHHHH..NYAAAHHHh..
(whatever sounds kids make when they whine).
And when the bottle comes. The baby attach himself/herself immediately to the nipple.
That my friends is a 100%.

人要比车凶

I always say this to some of the people that know me : 人要比车凶
"Ren yao bi che xiong." ( A man must be more fierce/agressive than his car)

If you've ever watched Initial-D the anime series. You'll only hear it in one conversation between the drivers. But when i heard it, it strucked me. It was years back, but today i still remind myself and my friends that seek advice about this.

In life it's the same. You must be in control or else the situation will be.
It's the same with driving(in the case of Initial-D, it's racing), you must be in control of the car, or the car will be in control of you.

Now take charge and don't let the situation or challenges 'dapao' you!

TriStan the Rant.ist

Recently I've met a friend that gives me puzzle of names, usually jumbled up words that forms into names. Most of which are reall easy. Don't need no bombastic Da Vinci code or anagrams or complex algorithm knowledge to solve.

One of the puzzle that the friend gave that struck me was a simple one: Rantist

Thoughts came to mind:
1. The ranter. A very very witty blog that i read.
2. Similiar to the ranter, but as a different noun-rantist.
3. Sounds like rapist or dentist. Urgh. Nevermind.

When arranged properly it becomes: tristan
No wonder.

So I shall continue to rant and rant.

My brother's name is Dennis = Sinned, oh wow.... i finally get it.

So what's yours?

Your neighbourhood hero

I recall when i was in my Beta year, which is my second year in my university. i rescued a girl in a playground in my neighbourhood. It was well past 10.40pm and the area around the park was pin-drop silent.
When i found her she was squatting by the see-saw, sobbing away silently. I arrived short of 3 minutes. The gang had already left her.

She was mugged by 7 or 8 men. She lost RM2000 in that incident and she didn't knew what exactly happened. But she knew who to call.
Still clutching to her phone , i walked her to my house and called a friend and subsequently called the cops. We went to lodge a police report soon after.

Days before the mugging, my housemate's room got entered by a conmen. The conmen asked him to go upstairs to turn off the main water switch. Now, like any sane person, we all know that the main water switch is outside and not on the 1st floor of our house. By the time he realised this, the man sped off on his motor with his wallet and phone. Leaving behind burst pipes and broken toilet with water flowing everywhere for me to fix up later. In the first place he let the man into the house thinking that he was the plumber that the landlord called.

We lodged a police report for the house break in the same day as the mugging, since my housemate thought it was convenient then.

...

Today, not donned in my super hero outfit or rather in my normal civilian clothes, the non-opinionated 'Rakyat', i went to get fuel for my friend's car that stopped cos' it went out of gas. It was pouring hard that night and i had to walk 20 minutes in the rain to get to the nearest gas station. The car stopped after fetching a few friends back to the apartment since it was raining and they were trapped in the pouring rain under a shelter.

I can't spin webs or fly through the sky but anyone can help someone else by having a good heart.

You ask this you'll be the president

If you ask 2 questions during Parent/Teacher Association meeting, you'll be the chairman of the association at the end of the month. You just have to speak up these questions during the meeting since no one bothers to speak up during the meetings and it gives you ample time to balance yur chequebooks.

First Question: " How do we raise more funds and money for the school? I see that the school need more money for courts and other facilities."
You ask this and you're ensured 50% of the post of president.

Ask something like: " How's my kids doing in school."
That my friend earns you a post of the secretary.

Figure out the other question that gives you the other 50% of the pie.
So speak up!

Never live in fear

The tradisional mindset from the education system teaches us to make less or virtually no mistakes. The core teaching of the system is to get things right, and if you don't, you'll get rejected by the system. It makes us dwell in fear. Fear of making mistakes. The very mistakes that makes us grow.

I always say this to my friends : " When you fail , don't lose the lesson. Learn from it."

Whenever i see my younger peers, i see it in some of them. Not daring themselves to push the limit and be exceptional. Just merely living the mediocre life.
It's high time to make that change. Believe that you can!

Today for Engineering Mathematics Quiz:

1.What is the total sum allocated for the 880 projects under the 9th Malaysia Plan that our prime minister announced 2 days ago?

2.Which part of Indonesia was worst hit by the recent tsunami?

3. Some i,j,k vector ,angle and plane equations.

After seeing the questions, i was like... Okay... interesting... are you serious you want to ask those in a maths class?

I'll bash you up

First of all let me vent myself by saying a few fucks : FUCK FUCK FUCK !!! Damn you cao bangla! Lakia!
If i know who you are, i'll crush you!

Anyway,

Cool it Stan... your house just got broken into by some pencuri, and thank God nothing of yours and your housemates is stolen except for a box of coins. I just can't come to peace with my mind that some dirty hands went through touching my clothes and undies. Damn...

Finally !@#$!@

Finally i got internet. Damn Telekom technicians. We pay them to be inefficient. !@#*@
I need to teach them how to set the port configurations and the encapsulation modes somemore. Plus they are not giving me a rebate for their slow services, since they are already charging even though the service is not yet installed.

One day I'll buy all your stocks and sell them to your competitors. Just because TM is the only company around, doesn't mean it stays that way. I know just how smart you executives at TM are, you take months brainstorming how to sell your lousy services.

Then after you finished picking your noses in front of the other executive and smearing it under the office desk, you come up with a dumb blue hippo. Ridiculous. And all that the hippo does is nothing but to prance around in shopping malls or at expos just to reel in more people into your lousy service. Fuck you!

Surprise surprise

Wah, my friend is participating in a Beauty Pageant.
