The man maketh the money, but the money doesn't maketh the man.

Hi!!! The title very cheemified hor? Hahaha... I just heard this song on the radio... One part went something like "The man makes the money but the money ain't don't make the man, yo!"

Muahahahahaha... this guy singing "End Of Me" by Marion Raven on radio... muahahhahhahaaaaa he sounds so silly~ =P I'm so mean hehe!

Today the Computer Club Photo Taking session arh... SIAN!!! Mr Ang shouted (or bellowed) at us to LINE UP ACCORDING TO HEIGHT!!!!!! Haiz... Seriously it's the first time I heard him yell like that. Scary. I always thought he was very nice. But he gave me a bad shock today. Whole situation sooo chaotic. Sec1 to Sec4 all take pic at one go... Of course not easy to line up according to height lor. But I don't blame him lah. We were slow. Slooooowwwwwwwwww.........

We were supposed to be there by 1.50pm, but we took the photo officially at about 2.20pm? Crazy eh. I was very impatient. But end up talking to Yunsu and Pallavi. Not so bad lah. We were discussing about the Geog CA. The photographer so act cool, so old already still wear Ray-Ban sunglasses eh? (by the way, Ray-Ban is a chao expensive brand which is very famous for making sunglasses) Lao Hero (Old hero) ah? Grow up!!! Eh, maybe he got sore eyes, that's why he wear. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

The informal photo-taking was pretty fun. Hahaha... All the Pixels (Khairiyah, Peiyi, GCL, and me) and Pallavi sat in the front row on the floor... I dunno who was on the other side. I sat near the left hand side of the photo, Pallavi was on my right (left most part of photo) and Khairiyah was on my left. The rest I forgot. Aiyah I old already cannot blame me hahaha...

Today Mdm Seah very good hor! Draw out the MCQ question 5 for us to see more clearly what was the picture. Thank you Mdm Seah! Wo men yong yuan gan ji ni!!! =D

Today, I ate alot for lunch. Buy from McDonald's one. Chicken burger, fries, coke, strawberry sundae. Phew. I buy there also abit paiseh. Haha... I don't look like I can eat so much right. Or maybe I do. Dunno leh. You all must tell me!

Very very very hungry... I ate the chicken burger in record time! (in my context of course) And I haven't drank coke in months I think. Past few months I was abit affected by my cousin's comment: "But inside one can of coke got SIX TABLESPOONS OF SUGAR!!!!!" Hahaha juz kidding... but he really said that to my father when he asked him whether he wanted coke.

And Sam... dun EVER make a pedestal or what with my name on it... I scared... Hahaha...

Anyway. Off to help Sam wif her blogskin.

Cya!

Hi folks,
this is just short post by me! Sorry if some of my sentences dun make any sense cos I only have one minute online. I only have 20 mins online u see. Ok where shall I begin?

Ok I'm soooo sori I havent been blogging or tagging that much ever since I got my own blog. Then later there was the 40 day fast. Poor xin. Dun worry. U'll still have juju to talk to. Speaking of which, juju, u owe me a treat! LOL.

I made my very own pie yesterday. With filling, pastry and all. But the bottom's not really cooked. Sighs.

I'm sorry I cant write more. My times up! I'll tag though.

Smiles to everyone,
Delta

Ahh... This is the best coffee that I'd ever tasted. *spits out a green glob* What's THIS?!

Hahahahahaha... Cannot stop laughing at Julia's joke hahaha... whatever dig dig left dig dig right AHAHAHAAHAAA!!!

ah! Now I just recalled this word: rhinotillexomania
chim word? not really.
the meaning: an uncontrollable obsession with nose-picking.
Hahaha...

btw the superstar show... haiz... leon, weijian, and even KELLY got kicked lor... all my 3 favourites get kicked, I don't wanna watch already boohoo...

Yesterday, I kind of got some kind of artistic inspiration pang and painted 3 paintings. (a rather redundant expression. 'painted 3 paintings.' duh.) =P

If you all want I can show you, hahaha... Not very nice, but there's one named 'Anything Wrong?' It's basically about the things I like. Except that some of them should be for boys. (eg. Lego) But I painted all the so called 'boyish' stuff I like in my favourite colour, pink.
Which may utterly disgust some guys. (If there was ever a pink lego brick.)
I don't know whether it will.

I saw this poll on a lego fansite.
What coloured lego bricks do you wish Lego will produce more of?
The most popular was Yellow. I was the only one who voted for pink, sniffle.
Hey, this thought just popped into my mind. What do you call people who fight for the rights of the colour pink? Pinkists? (Evolved from the word 'feminist')
=D

kz lah.. cya on mondae hav a nice wkend...

Geez.

The rollerblading session today was... erm... quite bad. I'm not scolding the coaches, they were very good... Especially that guy who was very patient with me... Must thank him. I'm really REALLY slow at learning rollerblading lah.

I actually lost count of how many times I fell... :p Because I don't know how to stop; I think I lost control of my feet today. They were moving foward... Which made the rollerblades roll foward... Then I kind of panicked because I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO STOP!!!!!

So, the only thing I could do was fall over. Grr. Cannot walk for long after the coach let go of my arm.

And... BACKACHE!!!!!

The equipments were grotesque. I don't know when was the last time they washed them. 10 years ago?
I didn't dare to put my hand near my face, lest I faint upon smelling those wrist-guards. Smells like bile. Malu lor. My hair so messy but I don't dare to comb, hehe.

My mum wants to call this rollerblading school and tell them to wash their equipment for god's sake. Highly unhygienic. Heehee! I don't think I want to waste money and buy my own equipment lor... No one at home knows how to rollerblade. So how? I cannot teach myself right? Nor can I skate at home in case I knock down some expensive stuff.

You wanna know how long I took to learn how to ride a bike? 1 month. Bleaurgh right? I'm so slow at learning sports. I just cannot BALANCE.

Hwaaa..... Banzai!!!!! I must learn how to rollerblade at the end of this course!

_-_-_-_-_- -_-

Oh ya... Quite surprised to know that Mr Yong knows what is the Doppler Effect. :D
Not bad ah?
But sadly, we will not be learning about interference, etc.
PS Siew Chi said 'I'm not interested'

Ok, I get the idea. Forget it.

During the SPA test, our bottle of Sodium Hydroxide had some kind of swirly white precipitation in it. Ooh. Mr Yong stared at it for a long time. I wonder what was that.

Sian...

Oh ya! I just remembered. I have to do the class poster thingy.

See ya!

"Oooh" is just how I would describe Light.

Yesterday, I was looking through my science encyclopedia on my computer. It's a CD-ROM. And I read up about light, stars, and the universe. Lots of cool, and horrifying stuff.

The cool:

If two light waves of exactly the same wavelength(eg. laser) cross each others' path, (like an 'X') they will 'cancel out each other'. Means that you don't see any light. I was going 'oooh...' So, I wondered if they would look like a 'V'. (From the human eye)

But if the wavelength (or frequency) of one light ray is longer/higher than the other, the one with the longer wavelength/higher frequency will block out the other light. So, I think that you'll end up with something like a 'Y'.

These can be demonstrated through a simple graph.

There are other phenomenons for the 2-light-rays-crossing-each-other-experiment. Many variables can be changed. I can't remember them all... :p

Old already... eh huh! eh huh! *pretends to cough like an elderly*

Hahaha...

Interesting right? There are many other interesting experiments too. Go check them out on the net. I'm erhh... too lazy to explain here. Hehehe!

examples of stuff I'm too lazy to explain (and also unable to explain well): inteferometer, LASER=Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation, umbras and penumbras, absorption and emission spectra, spectroscopy, ZzZzZzzzzz....

The Downright Horrifying...

One day,the Sun will eventually run out of Hydrogen to burn. (it's a star, remember?) When that happens, it will become BIGGER and HOTTER. Eventually, it will implode. It's own gravity will pull itself inside. Therefore, it will go BOOOOOM!!!

It will also suck in its neighbouring planets, pluto, someotherplanet, and possibly EARTH...
into INFINITY... where infinity=black hole
AAAHHH!!!

Oh ya! Go check out http://www.livescience.com !!!

PLENTY PLENTY PLENTY OF ARTICLES TO READ!!!

I just saw that my book, The Cartoon Guide to Physics, has this chapter... 'Quantum Electrodynamics'.
*stunned*

Nevermind. I'll have plenty of time to read it after the exams, right? =D

Including my other books. Like the Albert Einstein one, which I'm kind of stumped by. Some of the things in the relativity theory actually defy our science textbooks. Yay! Revamp our textbooks! Yay!

Bah. Wishful thinking. Doubt it'll happen, hehe!

To Sam: I know you can make that marble cake if you do it again! Add oil!!! =D (Jiayou) I'm sure you won't end up with an egg-cident again. (like what happened to me)

To Julia: thanks alot for the gifts!!! =)

To Mdm Seah: I like the video you showed us today. That's what I call learning through jokes.

:p *oops!*

Okay. Cya tomorrow!

My 1st Step to Being a Successful Rocket Scientist

I don't know whether to laugh or cry about this incident. It happened on the 2nd of July, a Saturday.

For dinner, my mum made fried rice. Because I cooked 3 hard boiled eggs on Friday and hadn't eaten them yet, I decided to cook them. They were already shelled.

I stuck them in the microwave for a minute on 'High'. I took them out, and poked them. The ice on them were not thawed yet, so I put them back in the microwave for another 2 minutes on 'High'.

I smelt something eggy when 1 minute went past.
"Boom."
I looked inside and saw one of the eggs err... rupturing. Small pieces of egg splattered on the back of the microwave oven.
I thought that it wasn't going to do much harm, (although when I heard the boom sound, I jumped.) so I let the microwave continue cooking it.

Then, just in a blink of an eye, all three eggs went "BOOM!!!" and splattered their disintegrated selves all over in the interior of the microwave. This time, I jumped higher.

Instinctively, I stopped the microwave and opened it...
only to be greeted by a small splat of disintegrated eggs on my face.
A small amount, though.

I also ended up with a couple of smashed eggs on the floor. My mum rushed in immediately, and saw the pathetic scene. So she passed me a wet towel and said, 'Sorry, but you have to clean this.'

I was like "Okay, but can you let me recover from this traumatizing event first? Besides, I don't think I can clean it with only this piece of cloth, because eggs are stuck in the microwave vents too."

It took me about 15 seconds to recover. My father rushed in too, due to the rather stunning explosion.
"Aiyo, you got egg in your hair."
...............................................................................*explains situation to him*

No words could describe how I felt. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But in the end I laughed.
I'd just done the most stupid thing in my life.
Let's get some chips and coke to celebrate, shall we?

"Ode to the most stupid incident in xinyi's life" is the name of the party.

My father was much more helpful than my mum, though. He gave me a vacuum and helped out.

So there.
