  "In the past, universities were universities.
  
  Where the lecturer says a few things, and the student camps at the library.
  
  They did their research, had no life and became legendary in their fields.
  
  Today, universities are schools.
  
  They teach everything, guides the students, pile them with broad based learning.
  
  They did no research, have a life and became normal.
  
  Oh! How the times have changed to darken my world!"

  In the past few weeks many events had taken place in my little life.
  It's rather interesting to see how God brings new excitement into stuff.
  For a start, the "ah beng" that I saw my cousin Ah Fong Jie, long ago...
  was actually an ex- Channel 8 Actor.
  I can't really remember though... maybe he put on weight.
  Or it could be due to the fact that on tv, the lenses stretch reality by 30% horizontally.
  None the less it was a joyful and eventful day!
  Well one thing's for sure... my cousin marrying someone in the media field's,
  got me and my cousin's mum taking pictures with some of the celebs during the house warming party...

  
  Chris is my cousin's best friend.. and he brought Fann and her sister..
   and many more..
  
  Forgot this guy's name... Feel wierd being dragged by my Aunt to take pics.

  Well it is a very  nice place indeed.
  Great to see my older Cousin Jie settling down and finally married.
  It's funny though... it's kinda my turn next.
  And somehow I don't feel THAT ready to do all that yet.
  I love my dear sooo much. but somehow, no money how?? haha
  Sure I'd love to get married... but...
  Why can't i just win 10 million THEN get married?
  It'd be so much easier right?

  And on one fine afternoon after our Physics lectures and shit lectures....
  Andrielle decided to go to the Superstore Giant to get some stuff.
  So I hopped on into Mark's ride in the front seat and relaxed as I was being "driven"
  Along the way, we encountered a double decker SBS bus deciding what to do.
  It seems that 2 civilian cars had blocked the bus bay,
  and Mr. SBS Driver decided to stop outside the bay along the road to alight his ants.
  And Mark naturally stopped behind the bus.
  It seemed like a while.... and we were all chatting.
  In fact we were all talking about Mark's getting a new car.
  I was just relaxing the birds were....
  *BBBBBBBBBAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM BISH!!!!!!*
  Next thing I knew my neck hurts from whiplash, and we all new what happened.

  
  Red Chevolett Hit us from the back! Although it was stationary at first!
  
  ah har! the culprit car revealed. Air bags open, no signs of breaking...
  He probably didnt even see the Red Chevo in front at all.
  
  The bootie of Mark's ride crushed like cardboard. His laptop miraculously survived.
  
  The left eye of his car went blind.
  
  The Ladybird's Buttock was swollen too...
  
  Ouch, Ladybird and Mark's ride has crushed chasis man. Bones cracked and all..
  
  Mark Traded Paint with the Bus. 1500 bounty added.
  
  The Crushed Honda Civic with Green Air Bags open.
  
  Yeah at the end of it all.. it's going to go to the last car i think..

  What a day. We were just talking about the new car and wham!
  Well, we skipped our Classic Mech lecture to see through the whole thing with Mark.
  He did suggest we take a cab back to NUS for lessons..
  But i said," Mark... We Buang Together, we do this together"
  I know it was appropriate, but think he got the point.
  It was an eye opener to see the physics behind reporting accidents.
  I actually learnt alot that day. Peroid.
  And my dear was so worried too!
  Sounded as if she was going to cry...
  Well dear, don't worry! I'm under the protection of a higher power!
  hehe

  Perhaps another interesting thing is...
  The Counter-strike: Source team I'm wish managed to go official!
  with the Clan website up, and sponsors announced..
  It seems fun to get things going.
  Was a good experience doing marketing and business stuff.
  Sounds like Bizcom revisited to me...
  In anyways, i learned alot from the website launch too.
  wanted to make some changes and the website provider said it'll cost...
  $35 + 5 + 25 = USD $65!!!!!
  Just for addition of certain modules and things!
  I tried to do stuff myself and managed to save us $40 USD.
  The rest was far too cheem for me.. and Sheng Hwee had to rescue me..

  
  
  Looks cool huh? heh visit at http://www.team-xtc.net

  In the end, the professional image got mixed responses from the public.
  As kidon would say its part of the flaming and stuff.
  Thankfully, the team totally understands the consequences and impact.
  And I think it's a great start for XtC in the upcoming months ahead.
  Who knows? XtC could even produce their own products soon? haha
