De-stressing
Post Presentation
Just had my Architecture Analysis presentation on the Beijing Olympic systems.
Can’t express how relief I felt after the presentation.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh………..
2 more presentations and 3 reports due this week…..
After all these deadlines, I’m gonna devote an entire day at home doing mindless activities like sleeping, slacking, watching dvds, tasting my food and listening to the rhythm of my breathing, and totally indulge in the meaninglessness of these meaningless activities.
All in due time. Akan Datang!!!

Exams De-stress Bag
I just collected my free Exams de-stress goodie bag given away by SMU peer helpers.
For those whom know me well, the best way to bribe my heart is through freebies. Hohoho… FREE GOODIE BAG!
Anyway, here’s what my FREE GOODIE BAG contain:
1) 3 packets of tidbits (2 cheese balls type and 1 cheese rings type)
2) 1 chupa chups lollipop (pineapple yogurt flavour… hmm… nv tried it b4)
3) 1 pen
4) 1 note pad (quite a nice design actually)
5) 1 orange (which I’m eating now whilst i’m blogging at the library)
After my presentation, I was so tired that I absent-mindedly peeled my orange and eat in front of those stunned faces. Oops… totally forgot i wasn’t supposed to eat in the library. Aiyah… too stressed liao =P
6) 1 packet of 3-in-1 coffee
Not too bad at all.

Movie Reviews
Despite the countless deadlines to meet, I actually managed to find time to catch 2 movies this week. Heh =P
Here are the reviews:
300
Yes, I caught 300 again. And this time round, there isn’t much lag time and I can properly laugh at the jokes. In fact, I laughed first before the scene came. Hahaha…
There’s nothing to rate about this movie. It’s still my current fave, except probably after Don Juan DeMarco.
Watch it guys.
The History Boys
Seeing how the boys mugged for their A’levels reminded me of mine, especially when I took history too. This is a movie highly recommended for individuals whom enjoy an occasional intellectual masturbation, oops, i mean intellectual stimulation. Also for guys whom are gays in the closet as the movie depicted the repressed individuals having an inner struggle between expectations of social norm and expressing their desires.
Hector, one of the teachers whom were in charge of the students, said this,
"There’s nothing to learn about general knowledge. Nor is there anything to learn about knowledge itself. You’ll realize that knowledge is nothing more than just the regurgitation of pure facts."
(erm, he said something along that line yah? Or at least that’s what I thought he said.)
I like this quote very much. Can relate to it. =)
Hector is one witty guy whom’s passionate and dedicated about equipping the students with a well-rounded education, instead of studying for the sake of getting into Oxford/Cambridge. Unfortunately, he couldn’t resist the cute boys in his class and got into trouble.
Irwin is another teacher in the movie, but teaches mainly history. His teaching style clashes with Hector, but nontheless, a brilliant history teacher that reminds me of mine. Despite the standards of the students, Irwin would tossed their essays back at them and reminded them that all the other students fighting for a seat in Oxford and Cambridge would be writing the same stuffs as well. So half of the movie, one can see how these brilliant kids mugged like crazy and tossing poems and quotes out of what they learnt from Hector to compliment their history essays. And I enjoyed those intellectual debates and arguments exchanged among the students.
One word to describe this movie:
NEAT.
