Alternatives to Streetdirectory

This is what i had found from one of the blog by streetdirectory (I think).

The lawsuit with SLA has brought lots of headache for uses like me.

http://gothere.sg : The loading is quite fast. I try searching how to go from boonlay mrt to my house. The result is: Walk 5 mins- It's just a short walk away. Come on, don't be lazy, walking is a good form of exercise!

For more, can refer to the http://streetdirectory-singapore.blogspot.com/

Latin Honors

There are typically three types of Latin honors. In order of increasing level of honor, they are:

* cum laude, "with honor"; direct translation: "with praise"
* magna cum laude, "with great honor"; direct translation: "with great praise"
* summa cum laude, "with highest honor"; direct translation: "with highest praise"

It is difficult to generalize what percentage of top marks correspond to each of the degrees of honors, given that the percentages or grade point averages required for each rank can differ from university to university. Degrees summa cum laude used to be quite rare -- often reserved for the top one percent of students at the most -- and degrees magna cum laude only slightly less so. This situation has changed somewhat and there has been a trend towards less selectivity in assigning honors degrees. Still, a rough measure of the selectivity of the different honors is the common assumption in the graduate admission policies of British universities that the two higher categories (summa and magna cum laude) are the equivalent of first class honors, while a simple cum laude degree translates into an upper range second class degree (a so-called 2:1).

Hmm.. Yimei got cum laude equivalent to good 2nd upper.. (NOT LATTE!!)... Stressed.. At least a good 2nd upper class for me..

One week into my holiday

DIP has ended last Friday. The memory of going to school at 0830 everyday, having MacDonald $2 breakfast almost everyday with 6 of my teammates without getting fat, Changing someone who does not have the habit to have breakfast to one who ask us for breakfast. Thinking back, it's fate that I came into this group. Seeing that no one wants to join the localization team, Mi persuades Kenneth, Adriel and MunKok to join Kelvin and Ryan. The rest is History. It's really fun working with this group. I doubt there is any chance for us to work together, but this group is one of the strongest group that I have worked with. This group together with WOW^3 would definitely be part of the memory when I leave NTU.

Result was out a late last week - I'm satisfied with my result. It been nice studying with you guys, I hope there would be chance to study with you guys again if everything fall in place nicely for me and hope everything would work out well for you guys.

In addition to that, my JC student wanted to quit JC- again, and i guess she had quited. Interestingly, there is one of my student's friend wanted to have tuition. Would be going for the first session later. A sec four kid who failed A and E maths. I hope the kid would be hardworking and tide through this period.

Seems to me that a lot of people is falling sick. I was not spared from it either. Fall sick while shopping with Yimei in Bugis. Going by Keegan-Kangxiang joint theory that having flu would make people hungry easier: After having dinner with Yimei, I had Milo and biscuit at 2200 and two packets of instant noodles + eggs + tomato at 0200.

JC gangs, We should go to Ai Qing Hai before Melvin embarks on his fulfilling life.

舍不得-弦子

She Bu De 舍不得 (FULL CD Version) - Kym Jin Sha

舍不得
第一次你陪我坐着
我的手心是空空的
我知道那些简讯声你努力藏著
还怕我难过
不追问到底为什么
是我最后的温柔
想笑着附和说分开是好的
但我们却怎么一起哭了
我舍不得
可是时间回不去了
爱你很值得
只是该停了
没有我你要好好的
我舍不得
最后一次抱紧你了

会呼吸的痛

Hui Hu Xi De Tong 会呼吸的痛 - Fish (Leong) Liang Jing Ru

在东京铁塔第一次眺望
看灯火模仿坠落的星光
我终於到达但却更悲伤
一个人完成我们的梦想

你总说时间还很多
你可以等我
以前我不懂得
未必明天就有以后

想念是会呼吸的痛
它活在我身上所有角落
哼你爱的歌会痛
看你的信会痛连沉默也痛

遗憾是会呼吸的痛
它流在血液中来回滚动
后悔不贴心会痛
恨不懂你会痛
想见不能见最痛

没看你脸上张扬过哀伤
那是种多么寂寞的倔强
你拆了城墙让我去流浪
在原地等我把自己捆绑

你没说你也会软弱
需要依赖我
我就装不晓得
自由移动自我地过

想念是会呼吸的痛
它活在我身上所有角落
哼你爱的歌会痛
看你的信会痛连沉默也痛

遗憾是会呼吸的痛
它流在血液中来回滚动
后悔不贴心会痛
恨不懂你会痛
想见不能见最痛

我发誓不再说谎了
多爱你就会抱你多紧的
我的微笑都假了
灵魂像飘浮着你在就好了

我发誓不让你等候
陪你做想做的无论什么
我越来越像贝壳
怕心被人触碰你回来那就好了

Logbook

I am supposed to be guai and do my logbook but decided to update what happen to me recently.

Monday was a tiring day whereby I stayed till 2330 because i have to prepare e presentation which is on Tuesday. Shagged.. I lost the competition despite putting in effort. I was quite sad and my prof did console us. However, I know that though i have lost the competition, I did gain something valuable from the DIP- Valuable Friendship. Thanks Kenneth, Adriel, Munkok, Kelvin and Ryan~

Despite being so tired, I still meet my JC palz: Derrick, Melvin, Yimei, Tianying and Minting. We went for Kbox in JEC from 7 to closure which cost us like 16dollars. Very Cheap hor? This gang of people is the biggest group that Im so closed with. Despite been so many years, our friendship is still going strong. It's such a miracle. Thinking back, I didnt regret in coming to SAJC. It is fate that brought us together. Im really glad to have such a group of friend. IM sure we will still keep in contact.

Logging off le.. going to bath, write log and wait for release of result.. hmm.. hope everything would be fine =)
