Why you shouldn't drink when you can't drink.

1. You may puke.
2. You may puke in a public area.
3. You may puke in a public area and someone else will have to clean up.
4. Combine 1 to 3, you will waste alcohol.
4. You may sprout nonsense (and sometimes, you may live to regret that. Think Mel Gilbson.)
5. You may disturb other people, spoiling their fun and distrupting their activities.
6. You may dirty other people's bed.
7. You may piss off your girl friend.

Seniors treat Juniors

We have to be the batch that treat the seniors in year one and then treat the juniors in year 2. But anyway, it's a fun filled experience cooking swedish meat balls (mini version), which turned out quite delicious. For future suppers, Tat will supply meat balls (bigger ones).




3 kg of pork


More meat balls


Pepper spiked meat ball (I still don't know who is the lucky soul who gotten it)


With the gravvy which is supposed to be white.

How to get yourself ostracized in hall?

1. Blast music day and night without any sense of time.
2. Join comms, skip all activities and boast about how many point you will be getting.
3. Talk as if you own the hall/make senseless complaints/give impressive proposals for comm and do nothing ----------in short talk big.
4. Try all means and ways to get what you want, using unscrupulous methods, resorting to backstabbing etc etc.
5. Enter someone's room uninvited (similar to barging into someone's room) in extreme cases, never even bother to knock (what have their mothers been doing????) Furthermore, sit down and complaint about personal problems, making senseless complaints about hall and go on and on with empty talks. Never fail to ignore blatant hints that they are not welcomed and will never leave the room till a sentence is mention right in their face (and despite that, he may just choose to ignore it).

However, the above will not apply (to a large extent) if you are damn shuai or damn pretty. Life is unfair isn't it?

From my lecture notes

When I was a kid I prayed to God for a bike. My mother overheard me and she said, "That's not how God works." So I though about it, stole a bike, and prayed for forgiveness.

Post from a SEP student

There is 2 amazing thing about this post I received in my yahoo group. Firstly, I always thought that SEP will be fun but somehow his experience contradict my belief. Hmmm... maybe the rest of the Singaporeans found out about his CAP and got jealous. Secondly, power of love is really amazing -- to the extent of changing someone's language ability in a short span of time.

(To my "dear", there is another one I wrote specially for you but I tot this one is interesting too -__-)

Lonely… Fascinated… Inspired…

It is a mixture of feelings. It is like a love-hate relationship.

My journey to Munich so far has not been a smooth sailing one. To begin with, I fall sick on the day of my departure.

It is so ironic. I caught the flu at the clinic where I went to get a Flu jab.

Things, I believe will be so much better if I am with the right company. As a happy-go-lucky person as I always am, I thought that SEP students will naturally be friendly with one another. Well, it seems that I am quite wrong this time. The people who come to Munich is simply hmm… is quite into their own world la.

Sick and alienated, I am in this part of the world 107300km from my home, where English is not to be understood.

At first, I feel really sad and down, and dont really like Munich despite its beautiful architecture until 2 minutes ago.

As I am writing and trying to record down all the shity thing I went through, I realized that I really have to think hard to recall all the unhappy things that happened!

And I realized they happened, and I forget about it unless I make an intentionally effort to recall them. That sounds real stupid right, to make an effort to dig out something unpleasant.

And that is not all, so far in Munich, the experience that leaves the deepest impression in me is not all this unpleasant experiences. That impression is so clear that my brain has been telling me to pen it down since I begin to write this email.

I was walking down the streets in Marina Platz and there I saw a crowd of people. Curious, I approach the crowd and suddenly, I saw a football pumped high up into the air. I squeeze through the taller European, expecting to see a handsome Brazilian performer doing amazing football stance. But what I see is a short figure wearing a Brazilian football shirt. He had short curly hair and dark skin. He was doing the football stance like any good football player. Just that, instead of standing on his feet, he was standing on artificial legs, and he was using his two walking sticks, his head, his neck to do his football magic.

I think he does more than football magic. I leave him a 5 EURO note for what he had taught me.

Life is not always bad. It depends on how you live it. There is no limit nor barrier if you have a passion to do something.

I am not sure if he likes football, but he never gives up and sits down on the cold street floor waiting for a coin to be toss at him

I am not sure if he does it for a living, but when he does his tricks, his eyes are focus, his mind fix on what he is doing, he smiles.

Now that I am writing, I feel how weak I am. I have legs. I have arms. I am just sick. I have so much more.

I begin to remember myself sometimes saying to my friends, Why are you always looking at the ½ glass of water that is missing, cant you feel the weight of the water you already have?

I think it is time that I said that to myself.

This trip is wonderful. So is Munich. The ugly thing is my mindset that I began with. No difficulty is difficult unless you think it is.

I think what the street performer has said was echoed by so many great people, All is in the mind.

If it rains, smile. The rain will stop. But when it does, only those keep their heads up will see the rainbow
Danny =)
