Events that led to WW2
WW1:
This was the major event which eventually would lead to WW2. Why? because it was simply called WW1 and no World War series would be complete without an equally exciting sequel right? We're still awaiting WW3 to break out once North korea test fires their nuclear missiles and "realised" that they've "accidently" set the coordinates of impact on Washington D.C.
The signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919:
This treaty was signed by the major powers at that time. Namely Atlantis, Troy, Rome, Persia and of course the United States. The only few countries to have survived the war with minimal losses due to the fact that their empires existed a long long time ago. A major cover up done by the US followed this with the names of the previously stated countries deleted and replaced with the current ones as they wanted to include their allies in the signing of the treaty so as to be seen as being humble. The treaty included that all apples be collected on a spaceship and sent into space. This was due to the fact that WW1 started after the Archduke Franz Ferdinand died after having bought an apple pie. His course of death was never revealed but the blame of his death was put on the Serbians. This course of action however, was never carried out as not only was harvesting all apples very tedious work, the spaceship was not yet invented at that time.
Hitler:
Hitler had served in WW1 under the Russian army. He was originally from Austria but however fell in love with Tsar Nicholas's moustache and left his homeland for Russia where he hoped to learn moustache grooming secrets from Tsar Nicholas. He fought well and hard as a clerk where he got promoted after beating the shit out of his superior with a stick for pissing him off badly. His superior was found out to be a spy after confessing that he'd rather be hung than face an angrt Hitler with his stick. Hitler was then sent to the front lines to fight as a trench-digger. However, one day, a friendly shell exploded near him. Luckily, he escaped unscathed except for the sides of his moustache were blown off. Fearing ridicule if he stayed on in the Russian Army where the men had such lovely moustaches due to the Tsar's emphasis on good moustache grooming products despite food shortages, Hitler thus escaped into Germany where men did not normally spot moustaches and where he made his iconic moustache the "in" thing.
How Hitler gained power:
He gained power in the government eventually though the monopoly of the company which he had set up there called , "Hitler's wonder moustache" which sold a variety of products from moustache pens for people who want to draw moustaches on themselves to moustache shampoo which kept moustaches dandruff free. For economincs students, this is what will happen when the Government does not intervene to stop a monopoly from getting too strong. President Hindenburg, whose moustache was considered too long at that time was kicked out of power and replaced with Hitler.
Rebuilding a greater Germany
After Hitler gained power, he called his suporters NAZIs, accronym for the Nitwits Association of Zealous Idiots. His first course of action was to march into the Rhineland. This was done for no other purpose than to show the world that German boots were quality stuff which could last the march into the Rhineland, the turn around to Czechoslovakia then into Poland and then into France. Hitler's intention was not to cause war but to rebuild the German economy by selling army boots for extremely long marches. Of course in order to prove that, he had to give a live demonstration. The other European countries of course didn't know this and thought that hitler marching his soldiers into their country was a declaration of war so they fled their homelands. What they didn't realise was that Hitler's soldiers wer not carrying guns and that they had very beautiful moustaches so Hitler decided to seize the best of this opportunity and occupy Europe. The very next day , Hitler recieved a bid on eBay for 100 million of his boots from Mao Zedong who ordered them for his soldiers who were participating in the long march.
Nazi-Soviet Pact:
We of course already know who the NAZIs were, but who were the SOVIETs? SOVIET was yet another accronym for Socialists who Order Variety of Indian Eating Tools. This pact was signed by the NAZIs with Russia as they were short on forks and spoons due to France taking away Germany's raw materials as war reperations. But of course being NAZIs, they didn't know that Indians ate with their hands. so they were hoodwinked but the Russians and when they found out, declared war on Poland (This was the spark which started the war) so as to get closer to Russia as Hitler did not have the heart to kill fellow moustache lovers just yet. He decided to do so in 1942 when he almost choked to death on a Russian made apple pie.

Watashi Uma Uma Wasabi
Désirez ardemment il y a le long temps, au-dessus de l'océan bleu et les pâturages verts du pays de foriegn de la république de la porcelaine occidentale, là ont vécu un homme vert court avec le nom de l'homme vert court qui a apprécié un petit déjeuner quotidien des oeufs et du jambon verts. Cet homme vert court cependant, a eu un ami qui a apprécié les pâtés en croûte de pomme faits maison chauds et ils ont toujours discuté au sujet de quel type de petit déjeuner est le meilleur et leur fournirait les vitamines essentielles pour le reste du jour. Ainsi ils ont discuté et ont discuté jusqu'à ce qu'ils aient finalement décidé que le meilleur petit déjeuner du jour à avoir devait manger des crêpes. Maintenant pendant un jour après avoir mangé leurs crêpes, les deux ont décidé d'aller monter à cheval. Cependant, quand ils sont montés sur leurs chevaux, est tombé en arrière et a cassé leurs dos. Tous les deux sont morts une heure plus tard dans l'hôpital. L'Extrémité =)

ENTP & ENFP - Dominant Extraverted Intuition
Words, ideas and possibilities spew effortlessly from them. Words are their best friends. They dance around ideas, the more, the merrier. Imaginative, spontaneous, original and enthusiastic, they have a knack for seeing other possibilities, other dreams and options. The world is never as it is but as it could be, as if it were but an artists sketch begging for colour. They initiate change and often are prone to trespassing a few known boundaries to take themselves and others where no one has been before. The status quo tends to lack inspiration.
When inspired, they are fearless and tireless. Their energy will know no limits unless red tape takes over. Routine drags them down. Their faith in possibilities and belief in the benefit of change often inspire others to follow. They are challenging, ingenious and innovative. They will give their best to what appears to be an impossible challenge, a place unknown to man or beast.
They use metaphors, stories, images and analogies to make their point.They love theories and often shape their own. They see patterns emerging. Keen improvisers, they are rarely caught off guard, there is always something up their sleeve. The sky is the only limit.
They are sometimes entertainers, artists or otherwise engaged in public demonstrations that allow their ideas to bloom. Their greatest difficulty is not in initiating projects but in choosing among so many possibilities, setting realistic boundaries, establishing priorities and correctly assessing resources.

Back from camp....
This LTC was really differnet from previous camps that I've been to..usually when one hears, "LTC camp", one can picture:
- constant shouting
- scolding from superiors
- punishments
- 5 minutes to eat
- 4 hours of sleep every single day
- super harsh PTs
this one was completely free from the above mentioned ....really slack..slack BUT meaningful and fun...really learnt alot about myself and the way I work with a group...come the last day..I really almost broke out into tears during the ribbon presenting ceremony...really emotional...but overall, it was a good experience...

A Level MT Oral
Chinese shouldn't even BE my mother tongue! Neither my mum nor my dad writes, reads or even speaks Chinese unless the need is really there..but whatever the case, MOE doesn't really give a shit and I hve to end up taking Chinese as my 2nd Language and of course had to take my Advanced Level Oral last friday....
I was the 2nd last of my batch to go and honestly I wasn't feeling really all that nervous..maybe it's the thought that I still could go to an Auzzie Uni even if I can't get into NUS or SMU - Auzzie Citizenship does pay off sometimes - esp when you wanna clear those pesky customs in Australia or NZ hahaha...well it inevitably came to my turn....of course I could hve used my MC which I hve gotten but didn't...no use prolonging the agony..so anyways the passage was full of weird little squiggles which mean absolutely nothing and I found it my job to make this string of nonsense sound logical...yes! I only read those words I knew and those I didn't, I replaced them with something to make the passage still sound coherent even after the more difficult words have been replaced.
Next up, the convo section..no worries, I could easily converse in Chinese as long as I knew what the topic was about...first question, "Do you read chinese newspapers?" I actually wanted to answer yes to this just to see the reaction of my examiners but then restrained myself since this WERE my A Levels...haha but of course my answer was no....then they asked me why? Well, coz my family doesn't speak Chinese and we don't bother ourselves with the language, much..
..and then the third question was whether I'd bother to read a Chinese newspaper specially published for youths using very simple Chinese and with english translations at the side...well why not? Who knows? It might actually help...and so thus ends my A Level MT Oral...what a great day it was....

Things I Hate About S'pore Part II
1. Holidays
What holidays? more like stay-at-home-to-do-loads-more-homework-days...so much for getting some R&R..jeez...I seriously wouldn't mind that much workload if we had summer vacations in S'pore coz well, it's summer here all yr round! haha....well...we can all link this to our education system...they don't want us going overseas to learn new things...happened before (pre-independence), and they won't let it happen again..of cause they can't restrict u from going overseas...that's a dictatorship and a restriction to human rights and the UN won't like it so solution, load the kids with homework, remedial lessons and camps so that they'll be busy for the entire duration of the so called "holidays" and in turn mummy and daddy can't go anywhere with litte boyboy and girlgirl stuck in school everyday....
2. Smokers
Ok, so it's a worldwide problem and yea...I don't only hate S'porean smokers...I hate em all! Spast! the World's already very much polluted thanks to you...now you're contributing...oh and hey, why don't you just gimme the cash you'd normally pay for 10 fag packs and I'll kill you myself...faster and way less painful lemme assure you....well ok, maybe we shouldn't really ban it but only allow smoking in certain areas like small glass boxes no bigger than the size of a telephone booth and ZERO ventilation...that might allow u smokers to enjoy alot more of that foul stench you're soo addicted to and keep it off the streets...

Slow and steady doesn't always win the race. "Service with inefficiency and unfriendliness."....I'm pretty sure that's the mottos for most firms here...either that or it's "who gives a fuck bout the customers? Not us, we only care about the money they'll be paying after they realise we're the only shop in the area providing such services."
2. Our beaches (with exception of Sentosa's beaches)
Green and murky waters that would look inviting only to those well prepared with chemical protection suits and oxygen tanks. Rubbish filled sand or is it Sand filled rubbish...can't seem to tell the difference...
3. Our education system
As technology advances, what would normally take a man 5 years to master now would take him 1 day to learn how to operate the machinery...sad to say, the government still has to keep as going to school for a straight 12 years before going to university. Why? the answer is simple..where else would the revenue that would otherwise have come from school fees come from? So they think, why not dump all kinds of useless knowledge on the youths today and let them think we're doing them good and to figure out why the hell they hve to learn stuff like Additional Math and what good does the other crap they teach in secondary school do when teachers in junior Colleges are going to re-teach them adding in stuff to prove that what was learnt was in fact wrong...and where'd creativity and self-expression disappear to? I guess they're afraid that in learning to be more creative and expressive we'll be better than the current PAP members and worse..join the opposition parties...

Excuse My French - 2 Be 3
Je t'adore je t'adore
When you walk through the door
Voulez-vous voulez-vous
I wanna be with you
C'est la vie c'est la vie
You were made of me
The time has come
And this is the night
I'm gonna make my move
Get everything right
I'm gonna buy your sweet perfume
And champagne on ice
I'll be your sugar and spice
Any everything nice
I may not be
What you had in mind
But if i get my act together
It's just a matter of time
I'm gonna tap on your shoulder
Offer my arms out to hold ya
Show ya that you need a lover
Who can be smooth debonaire
So fine that i'll drive you crazy
That way you'll make you my baby
Damn girl excuse my french
I can't believe how good you look to me
Damn girl excuse my french
I can't believe how good you look to me
Well here we are
Movin' to the beat
I feel like fred astaire
But with two left feet
I seem to fall flat on my face
cause when it comes to love
I feel so out of place
I'm tryin' to be the man of your dreams
But every time i look at you
I come apart at the seams
I'm gonna tap on your shoulder
Offer my arms out to hold ya
Show ya that you need a lover
Who can be smooth debonaire
So fine that i'll drive you crazy
That way you'll make you my baby
Damn girl excuse my french
I can't believe how good you look to me
Damn girl excuse my french
I can't believe how good you look to me
Don't be afraid of me
I'm just a diamond in that rough girl
Shining for your love
Je t'adore je t'adore
When you walk through the door
Voulez-vous voulez-vous
I wanna be with you
C'est la vie c'est la vie
You were made of me
I'm gonna tap on your shoulder
Offer my arms out to hold ya

ODAC LTC '06
well finally...couldn't update last night coz I couldn't access this site...well, for those who don't know, I finally broke camp last night...and oh how I had missed loads of things...oh and you made my day yesterday too ^^
DAY 1
Treking in Pulau Ubin for 14 hours non-stop...walking around the island, or the parts of it which is not under OBS or Chek Jawa, for bout 4 times carrying our full packs which contained our equipment and stuff for a 4 day camp...most of ours weighed at least 15kg and only food we were given were dry rations..note to self : Khong Guan biscuits are super dry and they taste horrible...only managed to slp by 0200 on the ground
DAY 2
Wake up time was 0700...took a boat back to Changi Jetty...then walked again to the Changi Sea Sports Club where we were briefed for our sea ex that day...a 10km journey from CSSC to Corney Island in a 2-man kayak where we were going to have lunch (dry rations) but instead, we stoped at Pasir Ris...personally, I felt kinda cheated..lol
DAY 3
Day was spent doing the obstacle courses from stamania in the morning like the flying fox, commando crawl, temple blocks and giant ladder...afternoon was wet and dirty games where the 1 thing I could remember from that is when they made us crawl through the drain next to the track area in school. Seniors asking us really stupid questions at every openning with every answer given "rewarded" with a splash of water from a jerry can...then at night they explain to us that this was to see how fast we can respond to under pressure...campfire at night but to our dismay rain came so we abandoned our fire and went to the carpark to come up with a makeshift one out of candles and torches...what can I say, Deimos, as expected (lol), came up with the best skit and well one can say the campfire was kind of a success..
DAY 4
Final day of the LTC camp...couldn't wait to get home..day went rather smoothly with us learning pioneering skills in the morning and building structures..of course Deimos's structure is the best and most innovative haha and we displayed the best teamwork..after lunch was our final activities for the camp which were our situational tests where there was a set of 3 activities to do under a very strict deadline of no more than 20mins...appartly this was to see who were capable of becoming the new Ex-co members..well who cares, coz I finally got a phone back and could go home and take a nice long bath and a nice hot dinner of real homecooked food..haha
