Study sesion @ Old town

How we dread exam times and we complain about sacrificing sleep for study. But when we go out and work will we look back and cherish it? Look back and say i am where i am now because i worked hard i persevered!

To all my friends: The coming weeks will be a bitch but persevere!

Today's blog is brought to you by the word Persevere: to work hard in spite of adversity and hardship

If you are going through hell, keep going.
- Winston Churchill

Happy birthday mum! x)

Thanks for supporting me in my studies and giving me a home and stuff =)

Lol




I actually think that this might work to discourage young smokers.

And also for todays musing to be in the festive mood (nope not christmas but final exams) study tips from The Week magazine

1) Forget regular study places - Research shows that students who change study locations improve memory

2)Don't stick to one subject - Studying a variety of topics leaves a deeper impression on the brain (says the researches)

3)You have to forget something before you learn it - Because when you re learn it it will stay longer and better

4) More test - =( it speaks for itself

5) Don't drink coffee while studying — unless you plan to drink it before the test. Research shows that you'll have better recall if the exam situation is as close to your study enviroment. I.e high on caffiene while studying and high on caffiene while testing

6. Don't facebook - LOL this applies to almost everyone i know. But FYI statistics show that non face book users has an average of 3.85 GPA and facebookers 3.08

To any SPM, Year End exam takes or anything else Good luck! And remember there is only time to rest on the other side of the grave not here ;p

Collage days

Collage days nothing much to write about except the sad realization that my cooking is getting worse *sigh*

Lol and why are people shocked that I blog? Is it very un-Jerome? Lol i'll have you know my name sake (St.Jerome) is a scholar and the patron saint of scholars and librarians ahahahaha

Root of 3
The three is all that’s good and right,
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath the vicious square root sign,
I wish instead I were a nine

For nine could thwart this evil trick,
with just some quick arithmetic

I know I’ll never see the sun, as 1.7321
Such is my reality, a sad irrationality

When hark! What is this I see,
Another square root of a three

As quietly co-waltzing by,
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer,
Rejoicing as an integer

We break free from our mortal bonds
With the wave of magic wands

Our square root signs become unglued
Your love for me has been renewed

I did not write this. Remembered something awesome/emo/funny so i thought i'll post it up =)

Oooo cool



Lol i just realized 200++ --> 1000+ -->2000+ 3000+ lol i just realised my blog counter jumped like crazy. To all you readers... err hi? lol

Cool lol so anyways played badminton again today woohoo! and today on musings

Tokyo has a vending machine that recommends what to buy based on age and gender. It has a facial recognition software and market statistics. o.o and recommendations are also based on time and weather.... Amazing what people will think of.

Daily musings MY holy trinity .....oh philosophy
free-thought: (people who believe in this are called free thinkers) the principle that opinions ideas etc should be based on science logic and reason

Atheism: the rejection of the belief of a higher power/ deity.

Is there really a need for a god to tell us not to steal, rape and kill? If we're doing it because a higher power threatens to send you to hell does it just make you a fucked up person anyway? Should you not steal, rape, and kill just because it's not "nice" to do so? which leads to the third philosophy.

Libertarian: basically i believe that everyone should be allowed to live how they want to without hurting anyone physically or their right to do the same

I'm a free thinking atheist with libertarian views and science (or god wtv ur in to) damn it i'm proud to be

Lol nerds have fun too!




Subtitles for people who don't speak nerd xp
Pi is an irrational number and the square root of a negative does not exist (imaginary number)

And lastly
Mathematical poem
A dozen, a gross, and a score
Plus three times the square root of four
Divided by seven
Plus five times eleven
Is nine squared and not a bit more.


I did NOT write/draw any of these x)

Of badminton and musings

Random recollections: went to collage blah blah blah played badminton again today (woohoo) lol getting better at it (i hope.)

And now my favorite part the random musings!!
Mr.James Gwee told me about this site (notmilk.com) which says milk is bad. And if read it in detail you'll notice 2 things
1) the potential harm is self induced (over eating)
2) its natural!!!! and we solved it! (salmonella etc)

Is in in our nature to overdo stuff and blame it on the substance itself (be it drugs food and almost anything else you care to name). So many people (especially in the developed world) drink milk daily; saying it's good for you! and boom! you have diabetes.

But why doctor?? Errr... cuz there's sugar in milk called lactose?

Why do so many of us abuse ourselves and blame the substance?

Smoke tobacco? don't blame dunhill for your lung cancer. Don't smoke but still got cancer? blame your lifestyle! the car you drive the places you hang out etc (i do not advocate smoking)

So i'll conclude before i ramble away from the topic :) word of advice to anyone who reads this... Everything in Moderation, be it food,sins and even life

Thought of the day: Do you know your friends? or do you think you know your friends? do i? lol

*SIGH*

Decided to blog again
Why?
1) Release stress
2) Express my musings

Where to start, where to start? life's great so far i guess. Sadly there were several things that came out adversely to what i wanted (and i shan't discuss it) suffice to say that things changed and it led to tension... haih am i being too sensitive? am i over thinking things? am i expecting too much? *sigh*

So many things to do/achieve so little time to do it. I wanna achieve great things, honestly who doesn't? I wanna help my friends,who doesn't? I need strength!! mentally!!

[random musing] [Attributed to Desiree] Can you honestly say you feel joy w/o jealousy and think non-malicious thoughts when your friends succeed? can I? for me i think i can

[Random Musing 2] [[Thought of this @ a mammak waiting for yip lol ]] Life is gray! not in the depressing sense! Such a simple sentence lol that i really like ahahaha the (stephen fry)---> "the sensuous and sensual of words". To me it simply just means there are no absolutes in the world (there is no absolute correct/wrong morally or ethically) there is so few yes or no's that are just that isn't everything actually just "depends"

lol i just realized i started to deviate from what i was saying... till next time (hopefully i wont quit this time)

En taro tassadar!
