The Busy Phone Maniac

Hi, I apologise for not blogging for quite a while. Technically, I was busy finding applications to spruce up my ole Nokia 3250 and coping with my own academic and social issues. I would like to request that any people having ImageExpo by SysOpenDigia version 3.4 and below send me the downloaded version. Pls email it to sierra_antares1@hotmail.com I have version 3.5 but the programmers at SysOpenDigia have kindly "banned" the orientation function for all unregistered copies. Dun bother asking me to buy the license. It costs over S$100....

For those who dun noe wats the use of SysOpenDigia's ImageExpo, i will briefly explain it. Image Expo allows a person using a Symbian OS smartphone user to export live images from their smartphone's screen to the computer. In summary, a neat presentation application. However most people dun use it to do presentation, they use it to change the screen orientation of their smartphone from portrait to landscape. The change is quite permanant unless the smartphone is restarted or switched off and on.

People do this because they :

1. They can't afford over S$1000 to buy the Nokia N95 which works in lndscape mode.
   
2. They are jealous that the N95 can work in landscape while their smartphone kant.
   
3. They want to show off their heavilly mod-ded smartphone.

And in case u have never seen the N95 b4, here's how it looks like:

Full packaging / Media Player Mode(although menu shown) /Standby Mode

Prototype N95(still in portrait mode) / N95 in package box / Sexy Smartphone!

Today, we had Bio Practical. We were tasked to investigate the amount of starch and reducing sugar(in this case, glucose) in each of the solution in 5 different test tubes. As there is a bottle of Ethanol on the reagent rack (every bench for 4 has 2 reagent rack). Naughty Khye An put Ethanol on the test tube scrubber. The results are as follows:

Next he poured some Ethanol in to a small red plastic tub that was used to carry hot water beakers. Later, he torched the tub and the tub was aflame. The fire was quite out of control. Koong Jye tried to blow out the fire but it grew larger bcos he was like injecting oxygen into it. Khye an then used another tub and extinguished by pouring water over it. The tub, unable to withstand a large change in temperature, collapsed and instantly changed shape. I shall take a fotoo of it the next time i'm able to do Bio Practical, provided the Lab Technicians do not discover it earlier than us.

Today the last two lessons of school were played indian poker and big two. All bcos Mr Tan the Chemistry Teacher is absent. I would like to congratulate him for giving us such an opportunity for me to be shot by the water gun twice.

I bet a 1000 that u are asking why due to the inbuit curiousity of homo sapiens

Actually all the boys ( minus dominic, donovan, jermain and AMos LIm MAo MAo) and Girls like Jocelyn, Rachelle, Jessica Lau + Shermine played Indian poker today.

Indian Poker is played using a deck of Gambling Cards, duh!!! Each player draws a card from the pre-shuffled deck or the dealer. The card must be placed on the forehead with the bach of the card touching the forehead. The player must not try to use any methods to see the value of his card. In this game, the symbols in order of highest value to lowest value is --- Spades, Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds while the numerical value on the card in the order of highest to lowest is Ace to 2. In our Game, the person with the 'lowest' card gets shot by the water gun by other players.

I apologize for not blogging yesterday... Cos i was too tired after the sec1 Orientation Camp.... While the other NCOs thought the camp was a success, I personally feel that the camp was quite a failure as the NCOs failed to instill the much needed discipline in the Sec1s. They dun even have the discipline to sit up straight when the NCOs are talking to them

Talking about the Sec1 camp, the Sec1s dun really look interested in anything except the water-bombing activity... Most of the Sec1s were not performing the dance properly. No wunder Jessica felt so down on the 2nd day. In my opinion, the Sec1s dun look ready for the actual NPCC trainings. There are too much animosity in the Sec1 squad... For example Char####e seems to despise Shir##, this is too much!!! In fact, the rest of the Sec1 squad dun seem to care about Shir##. If the camp was longer, there would be more time to drill the much the much needed discpline and the 'one for all. all for one' attitude into the cadets

Wilf##d could have gotten the title of 'Best Male Camper'. He was quite enthu during the camp, with the exception that he was too quite. I hope that he can get that title for his ATC next year.

REgarding the digimon song, i have fixed the problem.

Sianzzz Sia... today got back two common test papers.....
Both failed to get the passing mark.... Talking about it makes my heart ache.....

Today still trying very hard to do the one-day late Sec 1 Orientation Camp proposal...
At least got a kind soul in Michelle helping me to buy the much needed food stuff....
I think i would go to help her lug all the things on MOnday morning to show my gratitude.....
Ironically, Jia Hui said that she got nothing to do for the camp but now she got quite something to type out....

I really hope that Jun Wei and Zhe Hui will turn up for the camp.....
Food IC badly need their invaluble help....

In the camp, partnered with Beatrice, sure kena headache... Bcos she would probably control thr group.... and talk a lot.... Lolz

Today was quite an eventful day....
First of all SS, Madm Kang returned us our half-marked SS common test...
found out that i got 4/12 for section A. So sad!!!
Hope that i can pass due to help from the still unmarked section B... Last week she asked the class whether we have seen her thumbdrive... today she went out of class without taking her laptop...

Second subject of the day, CME (a.k.a English as CME was rarely taught in 4e1). Mrs Tang was back from leave.... She was aware the we muddled up her birthday.... (hers in Nov). She also said that she quite poor thing.... Since yesterday, all the classes she went to wished her happy birthday. Even the teachers did that too. Didn't get back Common test = Bad and Good.
Bad for not noeing whether i can at least get b4. Good for not noeing too many test results within a day... will die of heart attack...

After lunch Chem.... Nothing much to say...Mr Tan, pls mark faster...

Last subject today....Maths....Ms Ong didn't seem as "black" as that day when she let us see our A.Maths marks. Not bad... At least got A2 for E maths .... Still need loads of work in A MATHS....
Amos Lim pissed her off when he commented that her laptop's contents are quite messy....Ms Ong reteliated with a fierce rebuttal... Actually i can see that she doesn't feel well today + getting pissed off, sure got angry.... TSk Tsk... Amos Lim, O , Amos Lim. This is the 2nd time u have pissed off a teacher with your remarks in your almost 4 yrs in HSC....

Today also got nothing nuch to do except planning the Sec1 Orientation Camp for this year's Npcc Sec1s.... Just now, went snooping around blogs of students from Haising... Found a blog of my junior....from Sec 1e1....Wilfred Wang(sensitive-.blogspot.com).... Found out that he so enthu about NPCC....Keep up Wilfred!!! don't be like me always skip trainings....

Added a digimon theme song. Jermian reminded me thats why i went to great trouble to retrieve a piece of my explicitly short childhood.... MOre to come... especially from the 1988 Japanese movie My Neighbor Totoro or 龙猫....

Today, I seem to have a lot of things to "report"...

The first and foremost is to apologize for not updating my blog regularly.
Please also feel free to state in the tag board which song you would like to hear and I'll try my very best to accomodate to your very wishes.

The second and last thing is to wish all the readers of my blog a Happy and Prosperous Lunar New Year.
May all your dreams for wealth, health and prosperity come true...


Tonight I will probably sleep at about 12pm. I am participating in something known to the Traditional Chinese as 守岁. In simple English it means to wish your parents longevity by sacrificing your own sleep... It usually practised by children with nothing better to do but I would like to have a try.

Happy Chinese New Year
