Binge eating

lapses of concentration
watching mindless videos on you tube
wondering whats for dinner
reading bout Michael J Fox
reading bout Reese Witherspoon
drinking lots of water
peeing lots of water

Staring at the stars

gazing out the window
checking out the neighbour's......
(man, thats a nice car)
listening to "relaxing" music
fiddling with fingers (cough cough)
playing chess with brother
laughing at his naivety
watch "some" TV
chatting with po po bout Malaysia
writing stupid entries in blog

Every damn thing except STUDYING!!!

Kia ora

First and foremost, congrats to Alex!!!....you are awesome and its good to see ya showcase your brilliant and unique gift for the whole world to witness. Malaysia is proud of ya.

Ok....before you think im indulging in self lauding, im actually refering to my namesake, Alex Yong. Last week, he won the Czech Republic GP for the A1 championship and by doing so, became the first Malaysian to win any grand prix in an international scene. Full praise for him and FINALLY, malaysians now have a reason to justify for thier dangerous driving skills.

Anyway, for some interesting stuff......research shows that, depending on long you linger, you spent an average of at least 6 to 12 months in the toilet. Thats a freaking long amount of time....therefore its logical to have some sort of entertainment. A US company recently designed see-through toilet cisterns that can be filled with fish. They obviously dont get flush away due to the separate inner comapartment which also houses gravel, plants, a dual LED lighting, a built in feeder, overflow tube and a suction pump.

Well, in my humble opinion, no fish ever deserves to go into this kind of torture.

What sort of entertainment is this anyway?? Plus how on earth can i view the fishes when im sitting on the toilet bowl??....Humans never cease to amaze me...

Something peculiar happened in lecture the other day....we were quietly doing some wasterwater qualtiy calculations...until SUDDENLY, a throng of girls in ...bless me....lingerie came runing in. They were holding a sign protesting something and i didnt have the time to read it coz i was...er...busy doing my work...anyway, these girls were screaming and running while our whole lecture was just silent....even the lecturer was stunned...after they left, most students stood out and leave the lecture theatre to follow them. However, yours truly, being a model student, stayed put on my seat and continue listenning to the lecture.

A few minutes later, another batch of girls came runing in..they came scurrying through the front door and tried to at the other end. Alas, the door was locked so they had to run all the way
back again. Everybody laughed as they left the lecture. Then followed by a heap of other students leaving the lecture....crazy huh....

Anyway, I recently was given a book entitled:

While having a browse, i noticed some information are more useful than others. Some are just completely common sense.

Heres some of the more useful ones:

Pimple - Apply a warm compress to the pimple for 15 minutes. Remove, then place fingers on either side of the pimple and gently pull away (on the contrary, i always thought u should not fiddle with it). The pimple should expel its contents. If the pimple is not ready to pop, cover it with a dab of green tinted makeup to conceal the bleamish and counteract the redness.

Bags Under Eyes - Steep 2 bags of black tea in warm water for 2 minutes, then soak in ice water to cool. Squeeze out excess liquid. Place a tea bag over each eye for 15 minutes. The tannic acid in the tea will reduce the swelling.

Poop on shoe - Remove your shoe and seal it in a plastic zipper bag. Place the bag in the freezer for at least 3 hours. Remove the shoe from the freezer when the poop is frozen and chip it off with a flat head screwdriver. (and plz...wash the screwdriver)

And since its spring, Severe Sunburn - Get out of the sun immediately (DUH). Place strips of cool, wet, cloth over the burn area and leave in place. Never put ice directly on bare skin or you risk freezing skin cells. Remove the cloths as they warm, apply a topical burn gel such as aloe vera, and re-cover with chilled cloths. Stay indoors if possible (wow...no kidding).

And some stupid tips thats just plain....stupid

No toilet paper in public stall (hahah....you're screwed) - Call out to other occupants and seek thier help in rolling or tossing paper to you from other stalls. If no response, partially open the stall door and peer out. Move quickly to next stall to seek paper or dash to the paper towel dispenser and grab towels.

Avoiding chocolate cake - Do not take a bite (thanks, no wonder i always succumb). If you cannot avoid temptation, leave the table before the cake is served and return when everyone finishes.

Wet pants - Hold a book, bag in front of the affected area to cover it and move toward a liquid dispenser such as a faucet, drinking fauntain or soda machine. Spill lmore liquid on yourself to mask the wet spot and make it larger. Publicly bemoan your own clumsiness.

And the craziest idea ....

Caught passing a note in class - Swallow the note immediately. Do not give the teacher a chance to grab it and read it out loud. You are already in trouble for passing the note - theres no point in adding further humiliation.
