It's About The Concept Called Time

Hola guys…now back to update my blog on my private stuffs ;-)

I had been in KL from 28th May till 1st June, and I got back to Penang on the 2nd June bus. Well, u guys wont believe it…the bookfest is GRAND!! 5 big halls of KL Convention Center are allocated just to exhibit the books!! There’s one conference hall in level 3 is specially rented for the purpose of holding the talks of famous authors from hk, Taiwan, china and Malaysia like: 陶杰,戴晨志,安焕然,蔡志礼,李昂,柴松林,黎紫书,傅承得…and countless famous people from other fields such as real estate, toastmaster, cultural profession and a lot more…well, all those talks really taught me a lot of stuffs, and I think in the future those knowledge I acquire from their experienced talks will surely put to use some day. And I bought 7 books…plus caryn borrowed me 3 books, and I still got 6 books at home to read...so in total I hafta finish 16 books in one month before going HK!!!!!!!!!! OMG……………………!!!!!!! LOLZ….

Talking bout KL, that day I was in KL caryn wanna borrow me books but because of sleeping late and eating lunch, I was late…therefore I rushed like hell to the nearest Pasar Seni LRT station…I was so shit fast that I ran the whole way and at that time the LRT arrived!!!!!!!! I was so goddamn lucky, I told myself. Therefore I ran up the stairs and board the LRT, thinking that how am I gonna get rid of the sweats when arriving in KLCC. But wait a second…..why the LRT is moving to KL sentral instead of KLCC??? OMFG!!!!!! At that time I realized I board the wrong side of the LRT!!!!! *sigh* It took me more time to reach KLCC in the end coz hafta come down from the station of KL sentral and board the opposite side of the LRT…lolz

For you guys’ info, I gonna go HK on the 10th july plane…..but still everything hasn’t been done yet…..the packing-up lar and a lot of stuffs. Lolz. Will slowly settle it…dun worry!!! Btw these few days ur fren here is very happy…coz what I dreamed of in lower six and upper six now finally come true….sometimes I was wondering, things in life really change drastically…we could be sad in the past but happy and resolved now…last November when boarding the KTM train from KL to Penang I thought of jumping it because my heart was too damn hurt and torn apart. The pain was like the thorns of cacti, jabbing me now and then when I am least expecting it excruciatingly rip my flesh off, even in my dreams everything seemed to be so dark and evil. But now, something amiss has been mended and I think I am happy that I did not jump off the train that time. Therefore I would like to advise everyone who reads my blog…dun think too much about killing yourself…..things might be desperate and cannot be solved at that time u wanna die, but if u carry on ur life, u will see it solved in the end too…nothing is big and worth dying for. Life is life, and others still live on even you die too. You must live on to see what you are meant to do on this earth before killing yourself. The meaning of existence on this earth is never explained. Find it in your heart. It is always residing there. Don’t die if you still could not find it. Trust me. Live on, is what I say, my friends. It’s the concept called time.

>jiah ling :
u make sure u mean it...lolz...come back lar...most of our gang is back leh (",)

Nick said...

Yup! I'll still be in Singapore for the next few years... aih...
Come to think of it, most of our schoolmates have moved from Penang Island to other islands... UK, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, HK, Taiwan etc. Why this unintentional affinity to islands huh? Interesting.

Tan Sri said...

everypart of the world is an island if u think carefully...... which continent isnt surrounded by water?

GLO said...

eh nick u haf blog?? gimme leh!!

ya agree with tan sri...er tan sri, what about countries with no water surrounding it? becoz i think nick is talking bout countries, not continents ler

Tan Sri said...

the only places malaysians routinely go to are in order of popularity, UK, US, Australia, Singapore, NZ and the non english speaking countries Japan, HK SAR, Taiwan ROC.
of these countries, by strict definition only US isnt an island. but considering that its coastline covers almost every side of it and the majority of ppl live on the coastlines as opposed to the inland borders, i would say its more reminiscent of an island. Landlocked countries include Germany, which many ppl do not go to due to language barriers... I cant think of any others right now.... Korea perhaps...
but then taking into account my first paragraph, the 8 nations, 7 are islands, p = 7/8 q=1/8
taking n =8, Bin~(8, 7/8)
i dun even need to evaluate to see tat the probability lies greatly within the faact tat most if not all choices are islands :P

(above written due to boredom from studying statistics)

Nick said...

Oh, tan sri, technically speaking, Australia is known as the biggest island in the world. So it depends on your definition. My definition is a COUNTRY surrounded by water, not a continent. You can't say USA is an island right? In almost every country, more people are concentrated at the coastline. According to your definition, almost every country in the world is an island, including Malaysia. You are twisting definitions for the sake of your argument! (btw, water covers ONLY TWO sides of the US (excluding Alaska), not almost every side, please look up the world map for clarification, the other two sides are bordered by Canada and Mexico.) Neither is Malaysia, France, China, Germany, Russia, Ukraine, India etc. All of whom ARE popular destinations for higher education amongst Malaysians, in particular JPA scholars. Your statistics are a bit flawed as it is not comprehensive. So taking into account the whole list, islands make up to less than half of the countries listed. So the probability of going to an island to study should be less than half. And your ranking of popular places of study ain't even right.

GL, I just have an account, not a blog. Lazy to keep one.

CW TAN said...

i am here awake at 5am, trying to make sense on wat the heck r u guys trying to talk about land locked countries and blah blah blah.....

ghee> refering to ur question 20 comments ago, my parents are here mar, and besides results coming out, and also gotta move into new accomodation in july... :p

Tan Sri said...

Arguments always are over definitions are they not ? :P
Now to do a little gouping...
I was talking overseas so Malaysia itself doesnt count.
English speaking nations: UK, US, Australia, Singapore, NZ and India.
Non-English : Germany, France, Russia Ukraine, Japan, Taiwan ROC, HK SAR.
Let us do a little assumption and consider that our friends are not muslims and do not go to places such as pakistan egypt afghanistan.
English speaking nations -islands : UK, Aus, Singapore, NZ
Non English -Islands : Japan, Taiwan ROC, HK SAR, Indonesia, Phillipines
English N/Island : US, India,
Non English N/Island : Germany France Russia Ukraine[also pakistan etc but by assumption not considered]
Now let us consider popular destinations
Popular : US, UK, Aus, Singapore, Russia. (I dun really consider Rus that popular but meh.... india can be substituted in its place)
Non-Popular Among Malaysians : Ukraine (Need I say more?), Germany, France, (the above two due to financial costs and language), the next two would be among PRC ROC and SARs.
now taking
p(popular|islands)/p(popular|non-islands)
to be a ratio between 0 and infinite .Tending to 0 means non islands >> islands.Vice versa applies.

now a valid assumption is that n(UK)>>> any other nation
and since this is such n(uk, aus, singapore)> n(non-islands)
above assumption taken from consulate generals report where more than 50% of malaysian students overseas tend to choose UK due to colonial tendencies.
thus by evaluating the ratio again by inference we would get a ratio >1
thus the probability of chooisng an island is already higher than choose a non island.

argh i am sick of stats
btw, the 7/8 was calculated without US.

Anonymous said...

But the main problem is, even HK SAR and Taiwan ROC are not counted as a country leh...it will be well said that the so-called countries are surrounded by water...so the 7/8 is not as articulate and accurate as it seems to be.

Therefore i still think the probability isn't that high. Any objection of statements please voice your opinion.

Nick> I knew it...u will be utmost lazy to keep one considering how busy u are in sg...plus blogging is very troublesome...i admit it ;p

Nick said...

Contrary to popular belief, I'm very free and terribly bored in Singapore. I'm 'working' now, haha! not much work, but at least they provide me with my own cubicle, computer, and internet connection! That's how I stumbled onto your blog... too much time. Some more had time to debate with tan sri and write a long argument, haha!

I'm quite out of touch... the only people I've met for the past two years was Tan Jo and Chenn Yih. And some more only a couple of times max.

Nick said...

Oyah, Chin Seong also. Forgot. Anyway, was busy before the 'A' Levels but now free!

GLO said...

>ee lin:

>tan sri:
wah that line is very cool...lolz...chuan wei, u r beaten :D

Wei Zhi said...

sigh... i giv up competing for comments haha... blogging requires a substantial amount of discipline which i lack :P

GLO said...

eh...it's not as what u thought it should be leh

the key is advertising it...lolz

Nick said...

I'm working at the Health Sciences Authority in Singapore as a temp. staff. Office work, get to sit in during meetings and take notes that kinda stuff, plus all the good food of course. But now kinda off-peak period so very free. Now I know how the Singapore government works! Haha!

Btw, I think 'yeng' is not a very apt adjective in this situation...

GLO said...

Lolz...then what adjective should it be then?

and btw nick, how u get that job? on your own or ppl introduce? looks kinda hard to get

salary is?

Nick said...

I'm paid 6SGD per hour. Quite standard lah. My monthly salary can dip to below 1000SGD if there are a lot of public holidays or other stuff like Social Visit Pass application, collection of results and scholarship interviews. I'm supplementing my income by giving tuition which is much better money, 15SGD-20SGD per hour for primary 5 maths, science and english and sec 1 maths. For A levels can go up to 40SGD per hour but will be tougher cos got to revise that's why din take. Forgot a lot of my A level stuff d, especially those crazy 'S' papers, can kill, haha!

But my colleagues are nice and the working conditions are good. I happened to know a forensic scientist who introduced me to this job, or else I wouldn't even know.

Nick said...

The better adjective would be 'geng' right? 'yeng' is more for looks and style... which isn't very applicable in this case.

GLO said...

whoosh forensic scientist...that's kinda interesting to know a lot of ppl...it seems that it opens up your working opportunities

so what course u are picking up in uni? btw my flight changed to 9th july d...will post a new blog about it in a week (",)

Nick said...

I'll be doing mechanical engineering at NUS. Yeah, should get to know people when overseas. Veru important.

GLO said...

started ur first year d bui? coz i know tan jo hasn't started yet...i guess u too right?

lolz...u just gave me a tip there...ya kinda right, must get to know a lot of frens when overseas in hk oso.

;-)

Nick said...

Haven't started. This August. Do you know where the other Form sixers went? I only know Shao Thing, See Tatt and Han Yee went Japan. The others dunno also.

Tan Sri said...

Gua pi timbuktu

GLO said...

LOLZ...tan sri went australia...i went timbuktu...

who u wanna know? samuel loh still deciding whether local or NUS

just state the names of ppl u wanna know

Nick said...

Nevermind lah. Too many people d. I'll just ask some when I return to Penang.
