Hello!

In line with my blog's 'motto', I will shout now that I am bored. Studying for tomorrow's tests so taking a break from my break. Haha..

I certainly hope I gained a few kg from the festivities, I ate lots and lots of rubbish like barbequeued pork slices (bah kua) as well as egg rolls aka love letters and half a container of pineapple tarts. This year confirm HUAT AH!

Anyway happy new year to all, CNY has 15 days so technically I am not late! Been quite busy lately with schoolwork, Dagomir is forcing us through "indirect coercion" to participate in his tutorials which is a damned good thing. After his tutorial today, I went to get a papaya milkshake minus shake. Which is papaya with milk.. within MINUTES of downing half the cup, I had to run for the loo. Papaya is always such an effective laxative.. at least for me -_-

My unfortunate witness was none other than Mr Jingkai the great man himself.. haha now you know why I swear by papaya's power?

Well and do you guys remember A? The guy who did the geography project with me last semester, his MSN nick was bordering on disgusting (at least to me) on Valentine's day because it roughly described him receiving flowers from another guy. Baahh, I wish Charles was around and he would start cursing and cursing non-stop. While I have nothing against people who are homosexuals or bi or whatever.. because I am oriented the other way, reading such stuff makes me cringe. Like the way I cringed when I watched Passion of the Christ, only a little bit lesser perhaps.

Visiting relatives alone sometimes is really a whole lot more fun as I discovered lately. Driving the APC to visit my relatives and being such a late riser, most of the time I'm the only guest in my relatives' places and actually got to be 'closer' to them instead of usually listening to my parents chat with them and us watching boring CNY entertainment shows on TV.

Like when I was at my 4th Aunt's place, chatted with her a lot regarding my late grandmother and she said I was one of her favourite grandsons. Anyway my late ah-ma is the 重男轻女 type so that spells half the story already. She also related a few funny incidents when she was a child herself, being chased by a lunatic right into their house until my ah-ma intervened and being so scared of the lunatic that she slipped over a pile of wooden poles and landed flat on her butt. Apparently she was so afraid that she didn't dare to tell my ah-ma about it because she would get told off or even smacked anyway if she told my ah-ma about her bruise.

There's also the legend of my eldest uncle being the head of the family once my late grandfather passed away. Heard that he was almost like a tyrant, if you disobeyed him or if you broke a bowl or spoon, he would use his knuckle and knock it real hard on your skull so much that a bruise would surface immediately. I think people back then were real sadistic or that people nowadays are real soft. What do you think of my sadistic family?

Then there's the 1 about my mother, she's so damned suay man. My mother's brother was a perpetual bully and one day stuffed a hammer or a spanner into my mother's schoolbag and my poor ol' mum carried the freaking heavy bag to school and didn't dare to take the bloody tool out because she would be damned embarrassed. A bit evil man, in my opinion.. zzz

Here's a puzzle that I still don't understand the solution to. Try it anyway, its given to us by Dagomir anyway..

There is a king and a group of dwarves on this island and the evil king has enslaved all the dwarves. The king offers the dwarves a chance everyday to be able to go free if they can fulfill 1 condition.

Condition: All of the dwarves must fall in at this parade square every morning and ONLY those WITH the red dot on their foreheads must raise their hand. This is the only way for them to escape.

1. Some of the dwarves have a red dot on their forehead. (this is not a racist joke/puzzle)
2. The dwarves do not know if they have the red dot or not.
3. The dwarves are infinitely smart but cannot communicate to each other. (cannot wink, talk, gesture etc)
4. There are no mirrors on this island and assume they cannot use the seawater to see their reflection.

I love these logic puzzles man... so damn fun!
