Siu Hang’s blog.. again?

It always amuses me to see the queue at MRT station for the free newspaper. The queue at Ang Mo Kio stretches all the way to the main road every morning, beating any 4D or donut queue flat.Is the free newspaper really so important? There was once I saw this family of 4 on the train, each and every member of the family was reading a copy of the same newspaper. And back in office, almost everyone has a copy in front of his computer. I always thought Asians like to share. Yah, they share the same habit.On one hand they are telling people to use less plastic bags, on the other hand they are printing newspaper like free, and it’s really free. Oh, cos you can recycle newspaper but not plastic bag, so you can kill more trees? (you can reuse plastic bag though) Anyway most people just dump the free newspaper into the rubbish bin, not the recycle bin.See? Everyone is doing something for the environment. Killing it that is.

Today someone at my workplace gave me a white rose.It’s the NTU people’s last day of industrial attachment.

And they were on another bus somemore.I was sitting at the window seat on the upper deck of bus 179 leaving NTU, then there’s this single decker bus traveling side by side with my bus. There were these few girls on the other bus, they glanced out and up at me, covered mouth, and giggled…. and it went on until both buses reached Boon Lay. I was like, what the… (luckily both buses were air-coned) My project mate sitting beside me saw it too.I hope they didn’t wet the seat, if not bus uncle will scold.

Chow: Hey today NTU result come out!Meng: (pointing to Le) That’s why Le is so sad.Chow: Why sad?Le: ‘cos my girlfriend got GPA 5the maximum grade point average (GPA) is 5.I told Le to find a stupid girl.

…and yes, changing clothes too.Nice red panties =PLol, look at the other passengers’ expression/reaction!

Last night I had steamboat buffet with liau, hj and Alvin from my ME lecture gang.With the exception of Alvin, the 3 of us are all doing internship. hj is having fun with Bangladeshi workers at the shipyard, while liau is putting his sperm count at risk with x-ray machine servicing. But something alarming was among the craps. The shipyard people told hj not to go back after graduating (not because he’s not welcome, but…) and liau’s boss also said engineers no future, especially the semicon and wafer industry. Now I wonder where do we go…Oh the study bench at the eating place really made me feel like taking out tutorials from my bag (no lah, I don’t have tutorials, but there’s a scientific calculator in my bag though). And there’s this lady at the other table eating ice cream and looking at me with those seductive eyes… -_-” eek.

There are many ways to get from Boon Lay to Ang Mo Kio. - If you want to look at office ladies, take the MRT via Raffles Place - If you want to look at fat tree factory ladies, take the MRT via Woodlands - If you want to look at school girls, take the bus and change at Bukit Timah - If you want to look at yourself, take the taxi and look into the mirror

For NUS Engineering students doing EG3602 Vacation Internship Programme:Many people have been asking me about VIP report. (please do I really look like I’m faculty staff?) Ok since some people read blogs more than they check NUS webpage, might as well say it here.For those who started their internship on 7 May, this week should be week 5 for you. By the end of week 7, we are supposed to submit the first report. In a crabshell basically we have to crap 5-15 pages, get our supervisor’s signature, scan it, and submit through the VIP website.More details can be found here.
