hrmm... orientation has started :)..
yeah.. it's all fun and stuff, but besides the occasional rebel, there was one comment from the juniors that piqued(woohoo, BIG WORD) my attention:P
umm... i believe she said that upon being approached to crack an egg on her head, she said that she "had self-respect" and thus didn't want to be dirtied and so proceeded to refuse the offer of having and egg on her head... heheh, amazing how i'm able to make ragging seem so nice;P...
anywayz, i'm of the opinion that ragging DOES serve a purpose and IS good for the juniors...
here's why i think that is ISN'T degrading, and IS beneficial... tell me what u think...
Does refusing to get dirty show you have self-respect? do garbage collector's have self respect? if anything in orientation would show you don't have any self-respect i would think it would be all the vulgarity and coarse language in the cheers you have to shout out to the whole of IMU to hear that would be "degrading" or that shows you don't have any "self-respect"... as it is, most if not all of the juniors are willing to put up with all the vulgarity but the (IMHO)spoilt few aren't willing to put up with the getting dirty part.
if anything, refusing to get dirty shows more about YOU(jr.) then about US(sr.)..
1. you DON'T have a sense of humour.. what, you don't find getting dirty fun? go live in an air-conditioned box...
2. you are a SPOILT brat who doesn't know how to roll up your sleeves and go thru suffering wif a smile on your face... which if you don't know how to do, i seriously advise you to quit studying medicine or whatever it is you're studying and learn more about real life... real life serves up ppl who REALLY want to put your face in the mud and step on it, while we seniors are merely presenting a "physical metaphor" of what you're gonna get for the rest of your life from ppl around you, ppl close to you, and ppl whom you don't know...
3. you DON'T know how to be a friend... your frens all around you are "suffering"(since you view it as such) and yet you aren't willing to help support them and "suffer" along with them...
hmm... that's all i can think of... it makes perfect sense to me, but i fear it could be because i'm standing on the other side of the fence...
anyone on the junior side(way down below there looking up on us hi n mighty seniors:P) care to "enlighten" on why ragging is bad?

xus larom
no... it's not latin... it's just that moral sux so badly...and today it was extra bad...
hmm... firstly its from 4-6 which is BAD... really BAD.. especially when you've alredi been in uni since the break of dawn...
and then you have a..umm... she's actually not a bad lecturer... just one woman with a terribly bad attitude when she's kinda unhappy :(...
haihz... anyway today, we found out that we had a movie report to do... play to prepare... umm.. how much else?
oh YES!!... there IS something else... and the suxy moral teacher refused to move our moral exam next week which is happening at the same time as Orientation Treasure Hunt... and this when more than half the class is involved in it... ish, she's quite nice most of the time... but come on...~! it's ORIENTATION!!
but on the bright side, results came out for CVS today...n i got an A!! :)
no, i'm not boasting... i know what i did.. or rather how much i didn't do...but somehow God still sees fit to grant me this results...still, it's quite tough to go round telling other ppl u got an A when most of your friends are looking at a fail in the eye(fail in IMU btw, is B-)... hrmm...
oh... and to cap it all off today, after the super sucky moral... we went to "de-stress" and p-x... and for some reason... today all the ppl we played today are SUPER sucky players... not noobs mind you, though they aren't good players either... in fact, i shouldn't even call them players... i mean, how can you call yourself a dotA player when you join games and then leave when you're losing.. COME ON!!! what're you? even royalty knows how to lose.. and here you are leaving games just cos' u got a sucky hero or cos' u died first... and not once or twice... FOUR TIMES!!!... that's it-la... i'm not playing anymore unless its with own IMU ppl or at nite wif full team when there's REAL ppl worth playing against who don't LEAVE!!... or maybe i should quit dotA altogether :P... heheh, i remember i posted about quitting dotA b4... looks like it's a long way away... :(

haze again
hmm.. the haze seems better today... hehe, today i finally "found" vista after some 2-3 days of it being missing...
on other stuff... i'd been going thru old mail and websites... i've added a link to a rather thoughtful and meaningful blog by a chinese muslim who blogs regularly about stuff happening in Malaysia and abroad... it's really good especially if you're into politics and stuff like that... but even if you're not... it really get's you thinking about stuff though...

haze
the haze is really bad...
there's even smoke in my house!!... that's not all, even my towel smells of smoke!!
how much more worse can it get...
the sunlight is even yellow now... it's almost like some magical place where you have perpetual mist and light without heat... which would be cool... if only if it didn't smell of smoke everywhere and everyone coughing and sneezing... topped of with it being harder to breath...
