Dear readers,

when was the last time u went to a wedding ceremony?

I went to my fren's church wedding today and one of the speakers who took the podium left an impression in me. He shared with the newly weds and the audience the secret to a lasting marriage. He even said tt according to researchers who discovered this, tt pp who practise it not only get to enjoy a very lasting blissful marriage, they'll probably also earn more money and live longer!!! Sounds too good to be true? Well, I guess the only way to find out if its jus bullshit would be to put it to the test. So tell u wat, I'll practise this "secret" when I get married and see if I do earn more, enjoy my married life and live longer ;P

2 wks to Christmas. Ho! Ho! Ho!

Dear readers,

have u seen 'The Matrix: Revolutions' yet?

Hopefully, coming this Christmas, we'll get to see a spoof of this epic at the party in Godwin's new home. Featuring Op-amp as Trinity (she gets to choose her own 'The One' out of her 4 current heatsinks namely, the original heatsink and her number 1, 2 and 3 heatsinks) and her fav man as Neo. We'll be shooting our version of Trinity's death scene where her only lines is jus 4 words and for Neo, its jus action, no words. Refer to script below:

Trinity (says to Neo): Kiss me.
Neo: ...(pause)
Trinity: Kiss me.
Neo: (Neo gets lucky)

So now the qn remains... which heatsink will land up with the meaty role? cos the other rejected heatsinks will have to double up as Agent Smith(s).

So for yr own sakes, do catch the show b4 u come for the party! Cheers...

Dear readers,

would u dare to try the "food" featured on the show Fear Factor?

i jus ate an egg containing a partially developed duck embryo! Filipinos call them balut and most of them treat it as a delicacy. Had 2nd thoughts b4 i finally decided to munch on, esp when i opened the shell up and saw wat i saw... well if they ever have a spore version of Fear Factor with balut in it, at least i know i'll be 1 step closer to the money. =P

maybe we can use it as a forfeit? haha...

Tuesday, November 25, 2003

Dear readers,

so when was the last time u ate food highly recommended by frens? did the taste do justice to its repute?

after digging into a couple of supposedly famous foods and gg away with the "over-rated" feeling each time, i wondered if i'm the one with the fussy tastebuds. heck, i know for sure tt i'm not choosy over food cos i happen to be ok with both beef noodles or kway chup! and if a burger is hot from the oven, has enough mayo (the most sinful on the planet), then it's good enough. The quality of the patty ranks way behind in my list.
So i guess it's the unreasonable expectation i bring along whenever i go sampling famous food. maybe a suggestion for anybody who intend be bring others to savour good food, tell them its famous only after it goes down his/her throats. =)

Selamat Hari Raya.

Dear readers,

it seems the saying tt:"u learn something everyday" is indeed true. =)

yesterday, i learnt something which i thot i'll put in the record such tt i'll rem an outstanding treat from this person. i learnt tt 1 entire banana cake only needs 2 bananas! amazing right? but, in return for the banana cake insight, i shared tt Convectional Rain is a type of rainfall that is common in equatorial areas, caused by warm air (heated by the sun) rising, cooling, condensing and bringing heavy rainshowers. We'll be having a lot of it in the coming mth so get yr umbrellas ready.

eagerly waiting for the banana cake... u know who u r, start baking soon!

Dear readers,

here's another piece of quality gossip fresh from the oven...

For those of u who weren't at Gail's house this afternoon, we received word from a reliable source tt our dear Opamp has got another suitor (tt makes 1 more on top of the current few in the running) hot on her heels. Looks like our dear boy Heatsink will have his hands full clinging on while fending off others' advances toward his heat source. So far, we remain unable to establish anything conclusive yet. I will "try" to give u guys the lastest updates. Do stayed tuned...

Dear readers,

Remember the painful feeling of not getting wat u want when you most needed it?

Well, if anyone ever needs to get a cough mixture and it jus so happens tt all the pharmacies are closed, dun lose hope cos I got jus the cure for yr pain (or cough). All u need to do is to go down to the nearest Han's restaurant and ask for their Mango Soda. It taste exactly the same except the soda version is diluted with ice.

Wa lau eh! Crap man!

Friday, October 24, 2003

Dear readers,

Just like to take the opportunity to share a concern our dear Heatsink might have... in case he is at wits end with finding the right present for his darling Opamp's coming 23th birthday. Well guess wat, there's no need to fret anymore. Here's a sure win tip: get her the Takashimaya Shopping Card. Sure it'll kill yr bank account but wat the heck right? The smile on her face is more than enough reason for u to slog at work for. Pls remember not to wait till her birthday to give it to her cos the sale ends 2 Nov!!! So hurry now, while stocks last. =P

Happy Deepavali. Enjoy the long wkend!

Dear readers,

I happened to chance upon a love quote while surfing the Net. Somehow, it kinda got me thinking and i thot i'll jus share it with u folks over here...

"Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house, you can never tell." Joan Crawford

My version... =P

hey, this new feature is quite cool. now can link the new gossips to e20 yahoo grps!
=)
Dear readers,

Jus to ans some qns posed in the last 2 msgs.

1. Our class rep asked abt the chalet in 2004. Yes, Shane is planning for it to be held in Dec 2004 (in his free time). As of today (until late 2004 i presume), no bookings have been made. So nothing is confirmed yet cos with terrorist bombings here and there every now and then, we really dun know which chalets would still be left standing by tt time.

Thus, there's is really no pt to plan too far ahead though many motivational speakers will tell u otherwise... =P
Jus keep in mind lah (in case there really is one). And if u happen to have a hot date on the same day as the chalet, jus bring yr partner along lah. Shane really dun mind one lah provided u pay for yr other half's share.

P.S. Xuan jie, i propose tt u read my earlier post regarding the Talent Night to be held during the chalet. u cannot claim ignorance when u kenna the very painful forfeit.

2. Our class most popular, most loved, most endearing actress has yet again brought up the issue on changing the lead actor and actress. But so far (at least for the last 3 yrs lah), i have not yet seen any member of the audience not thoroughly entertained nor heard any complains of sian, no fun, etc from them by any of yr numerous performances. u r like Zoe Tay of TCS. she been the lead for 15~20 yrs but her fans nvr get sick of more!

Ever heard of the saying:"If it ain't broken, dun fix it." ?

Sunday, September 14, 2003

hi,
haven't draop a line or 2 in the blog for long...

great to see it updated. Talking about the Mid-autumn MTV..i agree it def still bring out tt smile fr me.

anyway, just wish tt u guys have a great wk ahead! btw got chalet in 2004??i din know tt.
Here's something cool to do for TalentTime 2004...

Somebody can say A,B,C...Z backwards within 20secs. =P

Dear readers,

As u take a bite into yr lotus paste mooncakes (the more adventurous folk might be testing out new flavours such as durian mooncake instead), slip yr Chinese Oolong teh or bubble teh for the younger generation and gaze at the full moon this Mid-Autumn Festival 2003, some of u, like me, probabaly had sweet old memories resurface in yr heads. The memories of the exact same occassion but of 2 yrs ago... Mid-Autumn Festival 2001... never fails to bring a smile onto my face =P

Therefore, I'll like to take this opportunity to thank the cast for the 'Chang Er ben yue' MTV filmed on tt fateful day. Its a performance not to be forgotten. Thanks for being such a sport!

Gossip Talk --- by gu-niang

Dear readers,

During a recent group gathering, I heard someone lament abt being poor and got no money to spend. Funny thing was, I happen to catch him covered in branded apparels from OP tee, Giodarno jeans, Teva scandals, Deuter bagpack and carrying one of those VERY EXPENSIVE metal water bottles made in Switzerland. These Swiss made bottles have been in fashion ever since some dork discovered tt drinking from the same mineral plastic bottle for too long can kill. So I guess millions of pp like u and I who have been doing jus tt shld start burning joss sticks or saying yr prayers to thank yr own God(s) for letting u off huh...

Back to topic. So the guy was full of branded stuff and even his hp is those got colour type. The only thing we din get to check was his underwear which some suggested tt might have been Hush Puppies. So there i was, confronted by this guy with incessant complains abt his financial woes but yet everything i owned from head to toe probably can't even match his footwear. Bummer, low morale siah.

So the next time u meet someone like i had, remember to check out wat his wearing/carrying. And if its a similar case to mine, u might want to do wat i did tt night (and forever and ever). Use his clothes, scandals, bag, Swiss bottle against him when the talk of no money comes out of his mouth.

Cheers to not raising the booking fees for sports facilities! Have a good wk ahead =)
Hi Bubble, haven seen u here for a long time. Glad to see u still drop by =)

Dear all, some pp have expressed concern over the Talent Time which is to be held during our class chalet projected to be in Dec 2004. Let me jus take this opportunity to reassure u guys tt there r at least a thousand and one things out there u can do during tt night which can help u avoid forfeit. So pls, no worries, stay cool... its gg to be a night of pure fun and entertainment and hopefully another one of those memorable sessions tt we always have together.

In case any one of u r still desperate for ideas on wat to do, i got one which u can consider all the way until next yr end. Its very simple. Bring a set of spare change (of clothes) and jump off Bedok Jetty!

=P

To the Founder of E20 blog and fellow administrator,

It's great to hear from u after so long... this blog reminds me of a common tv serial scenerio where the biological father, being a man caught within circumstances, dumps his son to the care of his good fren. I'm proud to tell u tt yr 'son' has survived the mths of yr negligence haha! =P It still commands a fan club of at least 3 pp which is abt 20% of the total no of members.

Since u have realised tt consistency matters in anything we do, i hope to see u consistently dropping by to leave words of encouragement for Heatsink to remind him constantly to be consistent and perservere in his quest to win back his true love. This is a good time for u to show yr concern and be a source of strength to yr dear fren.

Well, here r some words from me:
Heatsink Heatsink all the way!
Dun jus sit at home to pray,
Listen to Kelly and obey,
It'll make her bright and gay.
Better buck up by today,
Else u'll be digging yr own grave.

CHEERS. =)

Tuesday, August 05, 2003

P.S. as for the person who asked me for Big Kapo's identity, u'll jus have u keep on guessing until u get it right ;P

How to Win yr gal from a “Better” guy!
3 Steps to win back yr true love


continued from [11/7/03]

Chapter 2

Step 2 - Enhance yr strengths, accentuate his weaknesses


“No man is infallible.”

In a recent poll conducted at Holland Village, it was ascertained tt one of the fundamental prerequisites most women want in their guy is height. Somehow it seems tt the ladies have conveniently correlated a man’s height to the amount of ‘an quan gan’ she derives from hanging out with him (much to the displeasure of the men present during the polls who were incidentally, all below 1.8m).

In another poll (done on the same grp of pp), it was discovered tt though height wins out, there is another trait tt women look for in men which is jus as important. And this being: a good conversationalist. Hence, as much as they want someone who can provide them with a sense of security when they r with, deep down, they also yearn for a guy who can provide them comfort though his words and can share their ideas, thoughts and lives.

The morale of the story is: If yr opponent is a taller person, the odds against u r proportional to the difference of both yr heights. The proportionality constant differs from individual to individual. However, do take heart as this does not mean the end of the world for u. So b4 u start running off to yr guy frens to KB, lets assess the situation again and look for possibilities…

Now, so wat if his taller than u?
If…
1. he’s a quiet person
2. he’s someone who prefers to keep to himself
3. those ard him usually have no idea wat’s on his mind

This might be yr best place to carry out Step 2.

Step 3 - Declare yr intentions

3 Steps to win back yr true love


continued from [9/7/03]

Chapter 1

Step 1 - Seize up yr opponent


“Know yr enemy, know yrself, every battle fought will be a battle won.” [Sun Tze]

Jus how good yr competition is would be the crux to determining an appropriate battle plan. Before u start to strategize, it is imperative tt you do a good background study of the challenger. Some fundamental qns tt comes to mind would be…

Is he tall?
Is he rich?
Is he a nice guy?
Is he good looking?
Is he a 1st class honours grad?
Is he appealing to women in an overall sense?

After finding the ans to those qns, the next set of qns u have to ask yrself…

Do I last 1 minute (average) into most of my conversations b4 I start complaining?
Do I keep saying I’ll fail my test and exams but end up getting distinctions?
Do I bet with pp if I’ll get into dean’s list when it’s a sure thing?
Do I complain excessively?
Do I get frustrated easily?
Is it a pattern in my life?

If u happen to encounter any difficulty in answering these qns, feel free to approach yr frens for assistance. Only when u have the necessary info required, r u ready to move on to the next step.

The following story I dedicate to someone whom I perceive as my most loyal reader in Blogger. I would like to take this opportunity to express my utmost appreciation for his support since the birth of this blog. He has been a source of inspiration for most of my work here. He’s also my biggest critic and at the same time my greatest fan.

I’ll like to pay tribute to this special someone...
You’ve been our source of fun and laughter, peace and joy.
You’ve brought colour to the mundane lives of engineering undergrads.
You’ve made NUS a memorable place in our hearts.
On behalf of the many pp whose lives you’ve brighten, Thank You!

How to Win yr gal from a “Better” guy!
3 Steps to win back yr true love


Prologue

So u wake up early in the morning feeling as if u've won Toto the night b4 and ready to take on the world. This energy stems from knowing yr true love has come back from her graduation tour in Japan. U r all excited cos its been 8 long days since you last seen her angelic face, heard her sweet girlish voice, msg-ed her on icq to chat abt how yr day has been and sms-ed her to report yr status. Jus thinking abt the wonderful things tt will resume from this day on make u beam with joy.

Alas, soon afterward joy turned into shock, shock turned into sorrow as u began to realize tt yr closest buddy. A fren since yr sec sch days has become yr arch rival in love. Already, the torment from his betrayal seem too much too bear but the thought of losing yr woman is unthinkable! U realise this will be as good as yr fight for survival bcos life w/o her is not worth living. As u brace yrself for the greatest challenge for the past quarter of a century, u grit yr teeth and recite in yr mind repeatedly tt this 1st class graduate will give his 100% and rise to the occasion!

Milestone addition

Shane kena insulted

This one is a classic!

It's Sem4 hols and we were again at 23 Duchess Ave. This time there wasn't any fishball eating competition. It was meant to be a tech comm tape viewing session. So we were eating dinner at the giant round dining table and it was a pizza hut / KFC delivery thing. Somehow, water seeped under the glass cover and we had to lift it and dry the water b4 it can damage the wood. Took quite a while jus to remove the heavy glass. Then Shane took the initiative to wipe the glass. I dun remember the exact words used but Bubble's mom said Shane got no strength. Funny siah...

Milestone addition

Yhow's chef stint

Remember the potluck at Ruben's house (not too sure when) where we were supposed to each bring a dish tt was preferably self-cooked? Yhow's "gu lou yoke" was one of the highlights tt night. We had divided opinions on the real identity of those pineapples in his dish. Some claimed tt they tasted like papaya. Others say it was in fact more like potato. Only minority was convinced tt it was really indeed pineapple.

Bubble Teh & Brother Hann's 3210 incident (dedicated to Bubble)

continued from part 1 [24/5/03]...
As the night went on, we got an icq msg again. How said: She's coming up! Excitement filled the air. We did it. We won. We had to prepare for a big show. No laughing now. We struggled to keep our face straight at first. (special mention tt this was esp an arduous task for How). Then everyone tried to progress to putting up a solemn face. We knew this plot was all abt teamwork and nobody wanted to let the others down. Losing a hp a is big deal esp back in those days. Oh ya, we almost forgot to switch off the hp and hide it jus in case.

She came up. Qizhang came up with her. They were all packed to go home. She jus had to come up and know for herself the actual situation and whether she was to blame for it. To the evil men's surprise, Fabian and Yinghann put up a great show together. They went thru their impromptu lines as if they had done them b4 many times over. They had so much chemistry, displayed so much emotions. For Yinghann it was abt loss and sadness. While for Fabian, it was more of sympathy and regret. 2 evil men were utterly useless. They were trying hard to contain their laughter within themselves throughout.

In the end, we managed wat we set out to do. Bubble was finally taken in.

Well, after we cleared up the mess, explained the plot, everything went back to normal. Yinghann still has his hp, he still retained his 'nice guy' title in Bubble's heart. The 2 evil men got wat they deserved, their loyalty pts dropped tremendously. (so unfair tt Yinghann got special treatment!) =P

Ok, so I put here the official Bubble Teh & Brother Hann's 3210 incident (the way I remembered it). Hopefully we might go thru it again in yrs to come and laugh it off as one of those crazy things tt happened in the gates of NUS.

Excerpt from: Are tummies the new cleavage? By Sumiko Tan (The Sunday Times 25 May 2003)

[...Contrary to what men think, most women don't dress up to please the other sex. If we did, all you would see would be low-cut blouses and mini-skirts. Clearly, that's not the case. Women wear what we do for ourselves, and, yes, sometimes to impress other women. We put on what we think looks nice on us and what feels comfortable, not whether it will get men excited...]


we learn something everyday... =P

Saturday, May 24, 2003


Here's a E20 milestone which many pp might not know abt... a bit exaggerated at certain parts for comedy effect (dedicated to Bubble)

Sem 4 (Jan 2001)
Bubble Teh & Brother Hann's 3210 incident
- main cast: Bubble, Yinghann, Fabian, How and YB
- guest stars: Qizhang and an Indian cleaner

Date: the night before the 2nd Control quiz by Dr. W W Tan
Location: a bench behind LT2

Story starts with the guys studying last minute for the control quiz. Our female lead Ms Bubble Teh also studying for the quiz at another obscure corner of the faculty icqs How (mind u, in those olden days, we din have wireless LAN cards) to say hi. She discovers our whereabouts and decides to pay us a visit.

The guys were elated upon her visit. We exchanged the normal hi-5s. The guys then took the chance to visit the toilet together and pee as we had utmost trust in our dearest Bubble to look after our stuff.

We came back from the toilet shocked to find tt our stuff were left unattended including How's laptop and Yinghann's Nokia 3210 (it was his first hp with the class hotline 93825966. Apparently, he fell into Starhub's free incoming ploy then).

One thing led to another... shock to distrust, distrust to anger, anger to rage... we thought we could trust Bubble with our stuff and pee in peace. Never did we once expect her to return to her obscure corner, into the arms of another before we were back.

Suddenly, this Indian cleaner came from nowhere and started mopping the floor near our bench. Thus, an evil plot to make our Bubble come back up and apologise began to form in the devilish minds of How and YB (personally, I still feel it was more How than YB lah). These 2 jokers were determined to make Bubble guilty for leaving b4 we returned by letting her believe tt our Indian cleaner took the 3210 immediately after she left.

I have to add here tt Fabian and Yinghann were rather against this ingenious plot at first. They were worried tt we might really hurt Bubble with this hoax. But the other 2 evil men persisted. They even proposed a wager to guess whether she would finally apologise and if we would see tears tt very night. Fabian said we were damm bo liao.

The plan was executed to near perfection. First, How asked if she had seen the 3210 on the bench. She said she din notice. How continued tt Yinghann seems to think his hp went missing but nothing is confirmed as he's still looking for it. Slowly, the seed of doubt was planted in the mind of Bubble. She began to wonder if it was her negligence had caused this disaster to happen.

After the initial icq exchanges, after we thot everything went as planned, there was still no show from her. 2 evil men were disappointed. The plot failed materialise. She din come...end of part1.

Hmm... interesting... anyone care to explain the part on 'Godwin & Glass Door' thingy during Sem4?

He walked into a glass door in sch or something?

Sigh... maybe its God's will lah. =P

btw, enjoy yr NLP course. Looking fwd to see a brand new Gail and Yimin!

Hi pp,

some bad news here, jus been informed by Shane tt the ballot for East Coast chalet was unsuccessful.

Sunday, May 04, 2003


Dear Sky, some of the very tough qns might be out of syllabus. esp those tt kept asking for no. of defects or have to do with defect density, he has never touched on b4 and its not in his notes. And, I like Geylang. I think its a good idea. Steady...

Saturday, May 03, 2003


Hotel 81?
Heard they dun 'catch' pp over there. =P

Gail, u really think changi would be better? Unless the changi chalet is within walking distance from Changi Village. If not, getting food would be a headache. Furthermore, there might not be a bowling centre nearby and the beach might not have a foot reflexology path... i was thinking we take the package on the website Emily found if the ballot was unsuccessful.

u think?

Hotel 81?
Heard its always cheap. =P

Oh ya, with regards to the food issue, since a BBQ is too troublesome, we can always walk out to the marine parade neighbourhood for dinner. a slow 30min walk there to work up an appetite and a slow 30min back to aid digestion. healthy living siah...

Friday, May 02, 2003


maybe dinner at some neighbourhood coffeeshop?

like tt time where we each ordered 1 dish and we all share. i rem it was some coffeeshop near Holland V but i forgot wat the occasion was. and i think it was during IA too cos i remembered discussing abt work and tt Bubble and Yimei were in the same line as me. construction site. =)

Thursday, May 01, 2003


Ok, I'm thinking a tentative game programme might be useful. So i drafted one for discussion. It spans for 2 days. Fresh ideas r always welcome so feel free to post activities which u have been hoping to do since exams so tt we can better explore our alternatives.

Day1
AM check in

PM lunch
rollerblading (pp who cannot blade muz try too)
volleyball (provided Yimin's chio bu frens lend us the ball)

NIGHT dinner
bowling
talent night 1 (includes forfeits to be done on the spot)
supper
beach walk
own activities (free time)

Day2
AM sleep

PM lunch
canoeing (pp who cannot canoe muz try too)
Captain's Ball in water (provided we can find pp at the park to play with. hopefully fellow nus students on chalet too)
kite flying (will depend on wind conditions)

NIGHT dinner
games (charades, win lose or draw, guess the number)
talent night 2
supper
own activities (free time)

Day3
AM check out

PM lunch
bye bye

Of cos, the wet weather I propose is The E20 Bachelor[15/4/03]. Anybody got a portable VCD player? Mini Hi-Fi (with Cd-player)?

Wednesday, April 30, 2003


Thanks for the concern Kelly but 360 degree not good enough to avoid the forfeit lah. sure got guys can do one. heck, if u have been trg in yr house toilet since yr2, u shld be able to do too. And unlike u, I dun have someone willing to do my forfeit for me[18/4/03], or tumble down a flight of stairs for me.

And yes, regarding yr concern on the distribution of activities for everyone, in line with tradition, u and Heatsink will take the limelight yet again in the main event of the wet weather plan. In my humble opinion, to change performers would be unfair. It would be doing a disservice to the wider audience out there. Hence, being fair would really be bringing out the best performers to entertain the gang. This heavy responsibility of cos would sit most appropriately on the shoulders of our 1st class fyp presenter and his NUS sweetheart. In addition, to sizzle up the atmosphere a little, we'll have Parkway gal to cook up a storm. Do not worry, everybody else will have their little part to play as well. This is precisely y i proposed a mini talent time. To showcase true diversity in pp. And not fogetting tt forfeits await us. Tt'll be something really good to look fwd to... right?

Tuesday, April 29, 2003


Yo Sky Fyre, thanks for understanding. =)
Jus between the 2 of us, I'm gg to attempt to do the 540 degree spin move. Been secretly trg for some time liao. Shhh... u have to help me keep this down man. we wouldn't want anybody to practise this and thwart my plans on tt day...

btw, i found this...

Any takers?
i on for ecp 2....(obvious reasons too)

pasir ris, the lastitme i was there..ther'eslots of renovations n upgrading gg on..so can hv fun at the beach loh...

Sounds great man!
Cos I think paying $20 per person for the chalet is quite steep right? considering most of us will be unemployed then. =P

But I also cool with if we paying for the promotion package Emily found. Both at East Coast and Pasir Ris also ok. As for preference, I pick East Coast (for obvious reasons)... It'll be ard $20 per pax provided got ard 10 pp stay thru the nights bcos will be quite pai seh to ask pp who come for a while or dun stay over to share the cost burden right?

The entertainment will cost us too. Those packages only give 2 bowling games free. That roughly works out to 4 free rolls a person if 10 pp (if u manage to strike, then u squander the free 2nd roll) so maybe we shld focus on the free entertainment. Stuff like volleyball which we couldn't play last time due to the heavy rain. Hopefully this time got chance to spar against Yimin's long-time jie mei(s). Yes, pls invite them along. I'm sure tt Shane would be looking fwd to show them a good time.

Perhaps we can have a talent time after dinner? Dun worry, no fancy talents needed. Every person will just need to do something which nobody else in the grp can do. Things like playing guitar or harmonica will not be a safe bet as I'm sure more than 1 person can play. Unless its such a difficult tune tt nobody else can play at all. A good example would be to jump up and execute a 720 degree body spin. This will make u 99.99% safe from forfeit cos the last time I checked, nobody else can do (though Kelly is secretly trg to do a 360 at home) except Brother How b4 he was injured.

Basically, if someone else amongst us can do wat u did after u have done it, then forfeit liao. And dun worry if u can't think of something to do, jus do the forfeit lor. haha!!! So maybe its a good idea to think of something u can do which others can't. If u can prove some chim chim famous equation also counted I guess. Any violent objects to this free entertainment? Or further suggestions maybe...

Ok pp, start cracking yr heads!

fyi, the foot reflexology path in East Coast Park quite powerful one... Heatsink get ready hor.

I went to the site... they have a similar offer for Pasir Ris too!

May Day Special Package (01 April to 30 May 2003)
3D/2N stay @ Costa Sands Resort, Pasir Ris for:
Room Type NTUC Club Member Non-member
Premier Room $118 nett $138 nett
Duplex Room $138 nett $158 nett

Package includes:
*2 Bowling Games
*$5 worth of TaPZ cards
*1 Escape Theme Park Adult Ticket
*1 Escape Theme Park Child Ticket

For those who r not in touch with society for some time, TaPZ card is a stored value card to use in the arcade.

Sigh, the Child Theme Park ticket quite useless to us though... maybe can top up a few bucks and change to adult ticket. Then, Kelly and Heatsink can go chiong together!

Friday, April 25, 2003


Hi pp, an alternative would be booking a chalet at East Coast Park again.
Advantages over Safra chalet include:
1. not constrained to book 4day 3night blocks which is presumed to be too long
2. hopefully its much cheaper than 210 bucks but not so sure abt this yet
3. better accessibility to outside for food, logistic supplies, recreational activities
4. its smaller and tt means its more cozy[yonghao]. anyway, not many pp responded to stay over the nights too.

Shane: u rem the booking costs of East Coast chalets? is it on a daily basis? if u still have their number, then we can call to check if rooms r still available for 6th may onwards?

Friday, April 18, 2003


Hi Gail, I think there's really no rush to book it.

Won't it be more wise to discuss a bit and decide for ourselves if the $210 would be a sound investment?

cos right now, we really have totally nothing to do there. so no pt in committing the money at such an early stage. we might end up forfeiting the deposit due to say perhaps the occurrence of an event or change of circumstance so fundamental as striking at the root of the chalet and being beyond contemplation at this time.

So, unless it is reasonably foreseeable tt it would be impossible to book the chalet at a later date, my advise would be DUN get it this wkend.

Any 2nd opinion?

With regards to the issue on whether a forfeit is transferable, it is prima facie non-transferable. However, in deciding a specific case, we will have to consider if the request is reasonable. For this, a "proximity" test will be conducted.

If there exist a proximate relationship between them i.e. 2 parties r so close tt it hurts the person seeing the forfeit being done more than the actual person performing it. Eg. Kelly gets a forfeit and is supposed to piggyback Heatsink and walk 15 metres on the foot reflexology path. Heatsink can't even bear to let her piggyback him on normal ground let alone walk on such treacherous terrain.

For this case, it will be held tt: "...it would be unjust to cause hurt to a man thru causing hurt unto his loved one. A man should be granted the right to inflict detriment upon himself for the benefit of the woman he treasures on his own free will."

Heatsink will be able to piggyback Kelly and walk the path for her instead.

Here's something to ponder on...
Notice tt we usually can't come up with exciting impromptu forfeits. Everyone knows tt a good forfeit is the soul of an entertaining game. So how abt we compile a list? Will never know when it may come in handy.

It seems tt a sadistic mind is an instantaneous thing. Jus comes and goes quickly. Hence, I invite all to write their evil ideas here whenever it pops by... who knows? u might jus see yr idea become a reality one of these days!

I got these from watching tv...
1. piggy back someone and walk the foot reflexology path
2. skip rope on the foot reflexology path

For all u budding lawyers out there, I'm sure u'll agree tt any reasonable man would know tt 'footwear not allowed' is the obvious implied term here. So dun try to challenge the terms when u happen to kena the forfeit. Any attempt to do so may result in
i. a harsher forfeit
ii. an additional forfeit
iii. or a combination of the above

Ok, let yr evil thoughts run wild and u might be surprised jus how creative u can be while studying for exams.

P.S subject to availability of equipment. foot reflexology paths r now available in most parks and recreational areas.

Tuesday, April 15, 2003


Ya, I guess a more or less tentative programme would be nice. Otherwise we might end up really bored over there. 4 days 3 nights can be hell if we dun have enough fun things to do. Also, judging from the precedent case of E20 vs EAST COAST CHALET (Sep 2002), it would be wise if we also have some wet-weather entertainment.

I propose an ultimate wet-weather (actually its workable under all-weather) plan. Some of us can role-play the reality show The Bachelor[Channel 5] whereby our very own E20 Bachelor is none other than the most eligible Mr Heatsink.

His job scope would basically be to flirt around with all the gals during the day. Then everynight, we'll gather for tribal council where he then eliminates some of the contenders. Sounds interesting? As in all open competitions, seeded players have an unfair advantage. So this time, since Kelly is clearly the top seed, she can't be eliminated until the final night.

Alamak, no stove?!?!... well, it's probably good news to Kelly lah, she can't really cook anyway (noodles, rice, eggs not included), so having a cooking competition might see her lose out to Parkway gal. haha... lucky gal!

No worries, we can spend the cooking time at the spa instead =P (muz take brudder Ongky's advise to wash hand siah)

Monday, April 14, 2003

Yo wazzzup brudders and sisters! Ya all stardyin hard hard ke? Muz remember to take a brek and relak one koner u no! Work hard and play hard 2, ok? Oh yah, u all muz remember to wash your hand everyday u no. ahhh.. and dun put near ur face 2 owkey? sister sars not very friendly k. ya ok dats all from ur brudder. wat a crap blogger.

I'm on too!

Since we gg to invest $210 on the chalet, maybe its a good idea to plan wat we can do during the 4 days to make the best out of it.

How abt we buy food to cook dinner there? Gail, the place can cook right?

We can have grps of 2-3 pp to prepare a dish for every meal. During meal time, we decide which dish is the worst tasting and tt grp will have to clean up after dinner. How abt tt? Quite a fair competition right? And I think it'll keep us preoccupied for some time.

But Heatsink and Kelly and Parkway gal cannot be 1 grp. Or else with stuff like forks, knives and the gas stove in the kitchen, something might happen...

Wednesday, April 09, 2003

hahahahha....errr...no lah..i wont wan 2 get myself into the battle of the 2 gals
i still wan my limbs to b intact.....

Yesterday was not a fair test lah.
1. Everyone in the audience was looking at him with loving eyes cos he was the star of his 1hr show.
2. He din have eye contact with the audience once the bombings comenced.
3. Stress made him so irritated tt his tone towards the examiner changed at 1 pt.

Basically, I din see anything lah. I myself was too engrossed in the thick of the action. It's not everyday tt I get to c such world-class performance. No wonder they say NUS is a world-class university. Now I know... bcos Heatsink is in NUS. It was such a captivating performance. After watching it, I know I'll regret it if I'd missed it.

Simply one of its kind... and xuan -er, if u were there in person, i think u confirm queue up behind Kelly and Parkway gal and start worshipping the ground tt his walks on.

Tuesday, April 08, 2003

they were impressed? u mean the parkway gal went to the presentatn?? wow! so have anyone found out who's the gal that looks at him wif loving eyes?mayb it can be seen when she/they went for the presentation? so gossip gu niang u saw anything??????

heard that heatsink was very impressive....even when i was 'wirelessly' supporting him..i can feel the A(D) prj presentation =p

After attending the potential award-winning FYP presentation titled: Space-Frequency-Time Coded MC-CDMA, I wish to withdraw my earlier description of it as an A+ project.

It was, in my opinion, definitely not jus an A+ project. It was well worthy of an A(Distinction).

Bravo Heatsink! I was impressed. Yr frens r very proud of u (even though we were pretty much lost in yr slides and have no idea wat was gg on regarding the couple of issues being debated between you and the examiner). BUT, wat we do know is tt the examiner was very impressed with u too. And I jus want to add tt...Kelly and Parkway gal really got good taste! (They were impressed too.)

Well done! *clap clap clap

I happened to come across something useful today...

It is found tt:"Women use their eyes to communicate interest in a man. Men, on the other hand, will usually avoid eye contact with a woman they are interested in."

I believe we can use the above theory on the properties of men & women to decipher the Parkway gal mystery. According to this theory, every gal tt Heatsink avoids eye contact with is a possible suspect. So, we'll jus have to keep a lookout for this particular gal who looks at Heatsink with the most loving pair of eyes from this list of suspects and we've hit the jackpot.

Cool huh. Ok pp, start looking!

Monday, April 07, 2003


For the benefit of pp who has never seen or heard of TAXI, its a French comedy abt a taxi driver.

I think the 9.50pm show is out lah. The show is ard 90mins so by the time we come out, need to rush for last bus man. I interested in either 5.40 or 7.45 show. How abt BK for dinner? cos I got some coupons. hee... Anyway, there shld still be a BK in Cineleisure next to KFC. Very convenient siah. $3.50 for a meal, better than foodcourt price.

Can? dun tell me its ok, its ok...

Saturday, April 05, 2003


Dear fellow gossipers, for those who r free, i would like to recommend you to sit in for a potentially award-winning FYP presentation...

Title:Space-Frequency-Time Coded MC-CDMA
Date: 8-Apr-03
Time: 1200 - 1300
Venue: EA 06-04

Come and experience for yrself 1st class delivery of an A+ project.

We r expecting a full house so pls be early to avoid disappointment. See you there!

Tuesday, April 01, 2003


Hey, Funguson sounds like some ang moh football club manager. haha...

Very impressive ideas, but wat's the original movie title for yr 3rd suggestion har? Dun rem seeing any titles with 'Big Movie' leh.

And wat's wrong with "There's Something About Bobby"? I think it has an interesting plot.

Monday, March 31, 2003


Dear Emily, a couple of clarifications here...

One, I too agree with u and yw tt one does feel refreshed after the last paper. But do keep in mind tt if a person hasn't slept the night b4 (buring midnight oil for the last lap) then chances r the dark rings will show (experts say this affects females more than males) hence, can't look nice nice liao. And I believe both parties would like to look their best for their beloved Heatsink during the chalet.

Next, regarding the identity of the 2 most fortunate gals in this world. It has long been established tt Heatsink had the hots for Kelly from the beginning of time. The new kid on the block is Parkway gal. Kelly knows her but refuse to tell us. To date, a lot of groundwork has been covered on this issue. We had collated data from various 'reliable sources' and pieced them together. So far, we have quite a number of clues [refer to previous posts in the last 2 wks] and there were even attempts by a few brave pioneers in this field to fill in the missing jigsaw through conjecture and speculation but no conclusive theory formed as yet. More possibilities will be looked into for the disclosure of her name from all the mystery. REST ASSURED TT THIS HAS PRIORITY OVER FINDING THE CURE FOR SARS! While this is being done at the moment, everybody is welcomed to hazard a guess.

On the issue of other touching love stories... sadly, none have been reported. If u propose a topic, I'm sure pp in here will galdly contribute all the "facts" they know on it. Jus to clarify a pt: there is no distinction between readers and writers in the Gossip Corner. Everyone is a reader and a writer if he or she choses to be one. There is therefore no unfairness here.
1. No gossiper is at any time being dictated by wat other gossipers write.
2. All gossipers will always reserve their right to choose any story they like to write on.
3. All gossipers possess absolute freedom to write their gossip in their very own style.

Others can choose to respond whenever they want to. Of cos, they can waive this right by remaining silent and sit ard to kenna wack. Silence is seen as truth or consent by default in this arena. I hope the above will help to clear some doubts tt ardent fans such as yrself might have. Pls feel free to voice other opinions if u have.

Here's a story which I think may have potential. The title is:"There's Something About Bobby". u think?

Imagine Heatsink ask the 2 of them on the venue they prefer... one say:"It's ok, it's ok" to Changi while the other says the same for Safra. I think he sweat liao. Even he also cannot sink tt kind of heat siah.

Hey &*$# ?, u think we shld help him out here? Plan out some real-time scheduling algorithm. Maybe 1st day all of us go out shopping with one of them leaving 2 pp behind to prepare dinner (experts say sparks fly when 2 pp prepare dinner together and its a good way to encourage teamwork and coordination between 2 lovebirds) and we can do the same on the 2nd day for the other person. This will prevent deadlock. But best to consult Brother Hann on this first, his the Real-time expert amongst us!

Shucks man, I hope Heatsink decides on his one true love soon man. No time... 5 wks of sch left liao.

Not much new findings... looks like the pp involved are really determined to keep this thing under wraps. They probably taken lessons from Saddam on how he hid his WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction) from the UN inspectors. Its getting harder and harder to dig for information. Think our past sources have all been silenced too. Sigh, it pains me to see so much blood being shed jus to uncover the truth. Just like Fox Mulder's quest to uncover the existence of aliens almost costing his life a couple of times. Here, it might have cost a few frenships...

Talking abt recovery after exams, Yongwei, think u have to be more considerate here. Not everybody is bo chup like us. People got to sleep plenty and look nice nice then can come to play one. Cannot lose out to the other person mah. hor? But I think we probably can't be too choosy on the date. Judging from Gail's response, we'll be lucky just to get one at this time.

Saturday, March 29, 2003


Changi Beach might be a refreshing change. On the other hand, me and Brother Hann thought tt there was no pt gg elsewhere during the chalet. The purpose of getting a chalet is to spend time there playing (cards, monopoly, dead lizards...) and rotting inside. And Safra got pool table and bowling very nearby some more (definitely a plus pt) hee...

I think the best is to ask Heatsink decide lah. Bcos if he's happy means at least 3 pp will be happy together... hor?

Friday, March 28, 2003


Gail, will u be booking for the period immediately after all exams (5th May)? Changi beach sounds cool, near Changi Village right? Safra is ok too but a bit far from everywhere (rem gg to the karaoke from the chalet during yr 21st bday). Wat's the diff in cost har?

Btw, for those who hadn't already know, our dear Brother How kenna injured 1x jialat jialat during a bout recently. Have been on crutches for a couple of days... but no worries, his 'personal nurse' has always been by his side giving him the best attention possible. 1st class TLC (Tender Loving Care). Now, doesn't tt make one envious? hee...

Think the only person in this world more lucky then our Brother How is Heatsink liao. Bcos the only thing better than TLC from somebody who loves u...
is TLC FROM 2 PP WHO LOVES U...

Thursday, March 27, 2003

hi all......

we're thinking of orgainising a chalet aft the exams....trying to bk a chalet
venue: changi village...
a private house...facing the changi beach....

OR

safra chalet..

can we agar agar know who're gg??so we can decide if we are gg 2 book the chalet(gail is gg 2 book the chalet)....=)

Wednesday, March 26, 2003


Eh Yongwei, can do me a favour? Lend me the entire set of photos for Mooncake festival (2 yrs ago). The one where we were on the rooftop of EA. Can?
today aft i left the sdr test.....

me n yimin...saw one of our beloved e20 classmates(woh's oso took sdr)...talking on the fone....
he's smiling so sweetly while on the fone, shaking his umbrella....

we really wonder who was it?? =)

is there another story beside the the heatsink n op amp saga that we misseD??? =p
yeah ..... =)

Tuesday, March 25, 2003


To the 5 lovable E20 frens tt left a hello note yesterday...
I was indeed wondering how I can get a summon for parking in Kent Vale. haha...

Ok, from clues such as the handwriting (i'm guessing written by 2 pp) and the Chapter 2: Theory of Magnetoelectronics (Modeling of Granular-In-Gap Nanomagnetic System), here r my guesses (as you guys requested):

Yixuan, Yimin, Gail, Emily and Yongwei.

How many hits did I get? =P

Saturday, March 22, 2003


Hmm... everybody is bz leh... but i still see them ard. I even get to see Ms No Time. According to the NLP Adam Khoo, no time is an excuse leh (so is no money). Really tt bz ah, sources report tt it is bcos somebody deliberately avoiding somebody bcos of somebody leh... u think?

I think SouthPark is jus more vulgar lah, Happy Tree Friends is the REAL gruesome stuff man. Good entertainment leh =P

Yimin, I din know you read gossip corner leh, care to share yr info on who's this person tt caused the rift between Heatsink and Op-amp with the rest of us? Any guesses?

Wednesday, March 19, 2003


After it was discovered tt Heatsink turned unfaithful[1], extensive research was conducted to further narrow down the scope of Heatsink's possible targets. First, it was established tt he likes Engineering gals[2]. On top of tt, it was later reported tt he has the hots this particular E20 chio bu[3]. During the consolidation of evidence[4], it was learnt tt Kelly had been withholding valuable info from us. Now, it is speculated tt this gal has long hair, wears glasses, stays in the east and is kelly's buddy [5]. Future work on this project will involve further investigation into the specific identity of this mystery person.

[1] Kelly 13/3/2003
[2] Kao Peh 13/3/2003
[3] Ang YH 19/3/2003
[4] &*$#, who am I? 14/3/2003
[5] xuan -er 19/3/2003

btw, who's this "RELIABLE SOURCE?" if not convenient to say here, jus tell me when i c u ok?
our class???

hummmm........any hints???

long hair?
wear glasses?
stay in the east?
kelly's buddy?

Tuesday, March 18, 2003

of cos i rem.....we can even put up the foto for us to remember it..hahaha

I recommend the use of real characters to act out the show. I say this after watching a superb performance at the rooftop of EA block on a certain memorable Mid Autumn Festival night. I remember watching the MTV on Chang Er and her lover (bare bodied some more) on their love story. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't hold back my tears. So I guess they should do it again, on tv for everybody to see, and feel the emotions for themselves... it was 1st class entertainment.

Wonder if any of u guys remembered?

Sunday, March 16, 2003


It's true... when women say no, they mean yes.
So all these talk abt [quote Kelly]:"i don't like unfaithful guys u see so i am going to dump him" love turned hatred by Kelly in fact reflects to us the struggles her heart muz go thru everyday. Now then i understand tt all the stress she has been thru all these yrs... it was never abt project work, assignment deadlines or even exams. It was always the emotional pain tt one man has inflicted upon her, about one man's change of heart, about her being totally betrayed by the man she loved so dearly, about the realisation tt the greatest enemy... was her closest buddy all these time (identity of whom we r still working hard on).

What could be more painful than knowing tt the person you love actually loves yr best fren?

What could be more torturous than having to see the pp who betrayed u everyday and pretend in front of yr other frens as if nothing has ever happened?

What could be more tragic than gg all the way down to the Addidas sale at the Expo on Sat afternoon and finding nothing worthwhile to buy?!?!

Jus want to say to Op-amp tt as we plough thru the evidence and find out for ourselves wat really happened between the 2 (now 3) of u, I know it mus be a depressing time for u to have to re-live these memories and thoughts some more. After all, they have haunted u all these while already. So cry out if u want. u dun have to act tough in front of us all the time, smiling and laughing and complaining NO TIME. There is no need for emotional labour with us. We r yr good frens who will empathise with u (heck, u all took HRM ok!). Share yr pain with us. Tell us wat happened... we r listening... WE WANT TO BELIEVE...

Saturday, March 15, 2003

thot it's the heat sink's job to upgrade itself to radiate the heat faster?

tis kind of thing is a 2 way job leh

Dear Brother Hann... I envy u. At least, u only need to bleach yr face pal. For me, probably have to throw in an additional face lift and shed 20 pounds of fat before she'll consider me for little white face. I dun understand, the prata eating guy this morning got such an UNAPPEALING FACE also can qualify into her little white face network... muz be bcos he can fight. Fighters can give their gfs a sense of security. Tt'll explain y a lot of gals r smitten by Ah Bengs and gangsters...

Morale #1: The fist is mightier than the face.

I pity Bobby siah. Some laws in spore r really obsolete and needs to be redrafted to keep in line with Changing Paradigms. Women enjoy so much protection under the Women's Charter until the pt where Men pay Women maintainence after divorce even if it was the woman who committed the adultery. Seems like our HK Babe here is making full use of her law knowledge by abusing this loophole...

Morale #2: Dun be a husband, jus be a little white face.

Back to our topic... Thanks to KAO PEH's 1st hand info, we now know tt Heatsink, quote:"secretly goes for meals with some E20 gals". Thus, I think Parkway gal being a member of E20 is a fair assumption. Must be some very close buddy of Kelly's in class such tt she is is willing to shield this extra-marital affair from the scrutiny of good frens like us. But as for HK Babe being Parkway gal, i have some reservations on this deduction... she's more of a Tampines Mall gal instead. Have we overlooked some important hints (hints might be highlighted in BOLD)? Is it really her?? or is it really someone else??? Hmm...

Friday, March 14, 2003


Brother Hann, regarding the 2-timing issue, is Heatsink 2-timing Op-amp?
After giving it some thought, I have come to the conclusion tt this proposition of yrs is very possible.
Let me draw an analogy...Rem the amplifier project? 1 heatsink (if big enough) can easily satisfy 2 power transistors. Some even can put 4 (sounds like Muslim heatsink huh) also no prob.

Kelly mentioned herself yesterday, quote " I dun %$#@ go for &^%* unfaithful guys @#$%^& ". Obviously, SHE'S ANGRY. And somehow I get this telepathical feeling she knows abt the adultery and probably who the adulterer (Parkway gal) is.

Heatsink rather run naked than to tell who Parkway gal is. Clearly, his trying to protect her from us knowing very well righteous pp like us do not condone 3rd parties. This leads me to believe tt we actually know who Parkway gal is. She might very well be one of us... reading every line we write here! Gosh, we r in the open while the enemy is laughing at us under cover.

The only missing piece to this puzzle is... why would Kelly want to protect this person who stole her personal heatsink? I mean, every person (or device) would want a personal heatsink. Sharing is a thing of the past... in a time when the Emperor has 3000 concubines. What reason could have made her so soft-hearted against her love rival? unless... hmm...

Dear Kao Peh, for the benefit of u and those who weren't in Gail's room on tt night, let me briefly recount wat happened... Basically, Heatsink said he'll never reveal to us who Parkway gal is. He say he'll rather take off his clothes and run naked all over Siglap Centre than to disclose the name of the gal.

So, if we want to know who she is, we'll have to DIY!
Lets review on all the info we have at hand. Maybe it can help us narrow down the possible list of suspects...
1. NUS engineering fac
2. Stays near Parkway
3. Not in Harmonica Club (info courtesy of Brother Hann)

Anything else i missed out?

Monday, March 10, 2003


Brother Hann, u r sharing more of yr poems at Emily's request such tt she can lure her "little white face" is it? Wa piang, scully one day Bobby find out the reason behind her abundant supply of little white face then come to u for revenge how? u no more his Sergent Ang leh, cannot knock him down anymore, dun play play... if u kena beaten up badly and blue back all over is still no big deal, pain on yr skin is small BUT pain in Hann Sao's heart is big.

Anyway, coming back to little white face, it led me to thinking abt how unfaithful bfs cheat behind their gfs. Recently this Parkway gal Heatsink has been seeing or shopping with is a big Question Mark. 3rd parties have always been very potent relationship destroyers. Jus bcos he dean's list steady steady finish his fyp liao doesn't give him the right to shop with other gals while our Shopping Queen is still typing her thesis right? Shouldn't he do wat he has always done i.e. help her with project and do with her together.

Maybe I'm jus overly suspicious, cos their relationship has stood the test of time so far. But i wonder if... jus if... this Parkway gal has caused some big damage to them?... I mean, he no longer takes off his shirt and hugs her when she overheats leh. Isn't this a clear signal something is wrong?

Saturday, March 08, 2003

Brother hann, I read yr poem with tears... (tears of joy).
The first 2 lines best sums up the tribes and tribulations of the op-amp & heatsink relationship over the yrs.

As all of us busy ourselves with our thesis, lamenting as we type, distressing over getting a job, I wondered if anyone gave a 2nd thought abt leaving NUS. A place we spent our university lives being hypnotised to sleep in lectures by foreign talent, walking all over looking for working power pts / LAN pts, sleeping on benches as we rush project deadlines, laughing, suaning, crying, forging frenships...

Yes, this is a memorable place. A place where amidst the hustle and bustle of sch life, we witnessed our 2 frens' love for each other slowly blossomed. We saw them eating together, quarrelling together, do rag and flag together, play badminton together, throwing tantrums together, doing her microP project together...

Lets remember all of these experiences, and on the night of their wedding dinner, as we sit together at the table, reminisce on these beautiful memories. With sincerity in our hearts, toast them YUM SENG and wish them everlasting marital bliss...

Thanks for sharing yr lives with us...

*tears rolling down my cheeks... (tears of joy)


and for all the san ba out there reading this, today (8/3) is our day!

Friday, March 07, 2003


With regards to Yongwei's request...

I have some reservations in sharing the infamous Op-amp & Heatsink Love Story over here. The Op-amp Heatsink saga is no ordinary love story like those we read from the teenage textbk in sec sch. This is perhaps the most earth shattering, heart wrenching NUS love story based on a true event which can bring any reader thru a rollercoaster of emotions - joy, anger, sorrow, regret, wat have u. Heck, it might even make pp laugh and cry better than those Taiwanese 'qiong yao'.

As u all know, this blog is accessible to the public at http://www.e20.blogspot.com. So I'll need to look into some copyright issues such tt royalties can be paid to me b4 sharing it here. Jus in case some scriptwriter from TCS intends to pirate this plot and turn it into a 100 episode epic to mimick HK's Kindred Spirits. It probably won't take long.

Stay tuned...

Thursday, March 06, 2003


Ya man Kelly, Brother Hann is right. Vance n sen are buddies to yr SWEETHEART Heatsink. I remember 2 yrs ago ard this time, Vance and sen walked all over campus in search for power transistors (TIP120 & TIP125) for Heatsink's power amp.

Why did they do tt u might ask... its not bcos the lab is out of stock for power transistors but they were out of MOSFET brand power transistors and somehow, Heatsink's circuit can only work with branded power transistors. Ask yrself, would you do such thing for an ordinary fren? any ordinary person would most probably jus tell him off and ask him to wake up his idea cos all power transistors r the same. BUT THEY DIN.

They did it out of concern for their buddy then. Right now, they r showing concern for their buddy again. The first relationship is an impt one. Dun blame them for the extra care and concern. u r after all... his first love!


You guys been together for so long liao (the infamous Op-amp & Heatsink Love Story), there's probably a very strong sense of attachment. And when something goes wrong in yr relationship, its not abt finding a new replacement, Nope! it's abt the 2 of u lovebirds working hand in hand to make yr relationship work out. So, I suggest Kelly better wipe off the body oil from the heatsink. Oil will impede heat transfer. Dangerous!

(haha... Kelly must be fantasising as she reads this...) =P

I'm quite sure Brother Hann not gg... cos he too lazy to ask her for permission to go =P

And Kelly, everybody knows rumours cannot withstand the test of time. But the Kelly and Hamming story has persisted for almost 3~4 yrs liao, so I guess there must be truth to it... so pls stop yr underground love relationship and come out in the open, all of us are yr frens. We'll give the 2 of u our blessings...

Yup, lets gossip and destress from work.

Here's a nice 'update'... someone caught Hanming shopping with a gal at Parkway Parade.

Anybody knows who she is or wat ECA she's in?
