My big day - Graduation day

Wearing the kilt is fun, but the whole process took 2 person to help me and it took 20 minutes to wear them on. Thanks for helping me! (jian, hs n sm)



Wait wait, im not going to a wedding, its for my GRADUATION day!:)


This graduation costed us freaking alot of money okay. First was 15 pounds of registration fees. Then 34 pounds of gown hiring fees. Then 45.60 pounds of kilt rental fees. Next, 10 pounds to buy academic transcript and finally 15 pounds to buy a graduation photo. (both are optional though)




Alright, next, on the graduation day, all of the guys wore kilt, here are the proof :


All of us. So yeng man.


Trying to make ourselves 'zhao kong'


New pose - Blocking one another, geng lerh!


BEFORE the ceremony

A closer look of us :








And some pictures with my dearest :

DURING THE CEREMONY :

We had the graduation ceremony in the Barony Hall. The place was nice and everything went on smootly - On time. We were seated according to Mpharm degree classes, namely distinction, merit and pass.




When our names are called, each of us will have to go up to the stage, knelt down for the professor to wear the hat (for merely 2 secs), proceed on, then another professor will wear the robe for us. The whole process took less than 10 secs for one person.



The complete video during the ceremony can be viewed here.
Look for me - 30 june 3pm, specific time, 25.32 - 25.42


AFTER THE CEREMONY :



Congratulation!! WE finally achieved our cert, which costed us more than
rm 200,000, countless of sleepless nights and lots of hardwork.




And this is my bro, Zhuon - proudly and happily present the EXPENSIVE cert to me.

The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Cups of Coffee

I received this from an email, for those who hasnt read this story before, read on till the end, and pass it on.


When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.


A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front
of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty
mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the
students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.


The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar.
He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the
golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They
agreed it was.


The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of
course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar
was full. The students responded with an unanimous "yes."


The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and
poured the entire contents into the ja! r effect ively filling the empty
space between the sand. The students laughed.


"Now," said the professor as the laughter subsided, "I want you to
recognize that this jar represents your life.


The golf balls are the important things--your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions--and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.


The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and
your car.


The sand is everything else--the small stuff. "If you put the sand into the
jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf
balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the
small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to
you.


"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first--the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."


One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee
represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."




This reminds me of the yum cha session we had here in glasgow. Who say here dont have mamak? WE MADE OUR OWN LARH! Those sessions were more like those 'blow water' sessions. They alway happened at around 12midnight. It is either weimeng and phek joo or edmond will come out to toast a bread, then the rest will followed and we will sit there to finish our bread/milo/coffee/kebab, while 'blow water'. The next time will be in malaysia i think.




12 of us - edmond - tam ming = 10 of us

Come and Flirt

Confidence is the key of attraction to a certain extent. It is important to stay confident to potray how you actually carry yourself infront of your friends and in public.


Have your heard about the game called Ultimate Flirting Championship?


The game is organized by Extreme Style by VO5. It is a rather fun game guys. You get to choose a gender and wait for another 2 people to online to join your room. While waiting for other people to join, you will be taught some flirting tips. I found these two here very interesting.

Flirt tip 94 - Say the other person name alot. Make sure you know the correct name!

Flirt tip 65 - When you have nothing to say to your partner, pretend saying something that is exotic, such as icelantic!


Then, you will be brought into a three person chatting room - and it is therfore so called 'threesome'! :P


Next, you get to choose the avatar of your character. My first pick was a female character. Got into a room with another 2 guys. I get to pick 5 questions for them to answer. Each of them require to type an answer and i choose the best answer.


Eventually, you get to choose who to be the winner, and that is the time i got my Victory Hair. Thus, the winner and you will then enter a personal chatting room for more flirting session. haha! Unfortunately, the guy left right after the game.

If you are too free and would like to flirt around, then go ahead and play it!

Chicky is set to go

INTRODUCE to you my new router - DIR 300, from DLink.




Finally, both my lou poh and i are able to go online, at the same time, using the university's connection with this piece of router.




It was not hard to gather all the pieces and put them up. You see?




But the setting up took me a hard time. There is this quick installation CD but it didnt work. In the end, i seek help from customer service from Dlink website, and the response was fast - i received a step-by-step guide from them the next day! Efficient betul man!




I managed to connect to the router on one comp. Set up an access point. A wireless network, namely, chicky is ready to be used! Why chicky? cos Chicky is one of my nick! :p




However, it was not that simple. You can connect to the wireless network but not the internet. After a wee chat with edmond, some hints entered my mind.


So this morning, i spent almost another 2 hours to figure it out. For each computer that connects to the wireless network, you need to access the router website as well.


So how far can my wireless signal go? How strong?


Well, not really too sure, but i guess anyone in block G should be able to see if they on their wireless. How about block H? Shouldnt be a problem also. The speed is standard - 54mbps, the closer, the strongest.




So anyone who still staying in JBC and needs an internet connection, try chicky - but be sure to get the access point password from me first okay? :)

Vacuum with Dirt Devil

Our house's Henry is not in a good condition. He stinks and he smells when we use him! However, i still see my housmates use him to vacuum from time to time to keep the room clean. We tried to channge a new one from the village office but our request were rejected. We were told to change the vacuum bag and we did try. However, the vacuum is still stink. In the end, we went on borrowing vacuum cleaner from our friends to do the cleaning. What would you do then? I know there are so many of you out there who uses 'lazy' as an excuse to not vacuum your room weekly. It is rather tiring to carry the whole piece of vacuum cleaner from the living room, plug it in, switch it on, and start vacuuming, and finally to unplug and keep everything back.


How about using a cordless vacuum cleaner, plus avoiding to spend unnecessary energy on vacuuming? Dirt Devil introduces the first cordless vacuum to earn Energy Star approval. It is very user friendly, light and easily moveable. Since it is cordless, you can vacuum more easily without the long cable blocking your way! It has shown to be effective in cleaning, yet saving up to 70% more energy compare to the conventional vacuum cleaner.
