Further Reporting Order: Part II

Published by calvin-old under The Past

Further Reporting Order: Part II

Kinda confusing and complicated. But nevermind. Let me tell you what happened.

I called the services centre late yesterday to ask why i was receiving the further reporting order, and the person told me my deferment was not approved, because i’ll be enlisted earlier next year which means i do not need to defer, and i have to submit the NS Documentation, which i did not do so.

What?! My deferment was approved, thats what i know when i submitted the deferment application. The person said i was not approved. Okay, that was confusing, but it’s okay. Since she said so, then i’ll just stick to it. I don’t really care much anyway :P

Mas Selamat escaped!

Yes yes, this is an old news already. I think the whole of Singapore knew about this issue. So yeah, i don’t really need to elaborate on this for my fellow readers =x

Here’s a picture of him. If you’ve seen him, call the police, 999.

art_mas_selamat_ap.jpg

I mean.. yeah.. it’s like if you’re in a cybercafe, or in a library surfing the net, you may not know Mas Selamat may be just beside you too. So just look left, look right, around you before you read my next few sentences.

=D

=D

=D

=D

Okay. Found him? If yes, call 999 and continue to read my post. If no, don’t bother taking your phone out. Continue to read my post!

So yeah.. My GP tutor was saying she was embarassed when the CNN reported this news to the whole world that Mas Selamat fled the toilet.

Yea, really. Especially when the security in Singapore is really tight, and i don’t think there’s a hole for someone to get out of the detention centre? Kinda weird. I don’t know how he managed to escape, furthermore, with his limp. Omgush!

Wan Chin already had difficulty climbing out of school with that big hole. What more Mas Selamat can get out, without holes, with a limp?! :x

Wan Chin don’t kill me. Or we’ll have another manhunt..

Thats it for today. See ya!

3 Days to Common Test. 7 Days to Play. 10 Days to 2e2′04 class gathering.

Further Reporting Order

Published by calvin-old under The Past

Further Reporting Order

A bit of a problem.

Last few weeks ago, i’ve registered for my NS, yet they sent me another letter reminding me to sign up for NS. Okay fine. Since they said that if i had submitted the online application to defer, i can ignore the letter.

So i ignored it. A week or so later, i received the Further Reporting Order, saying that i did not submit the application on the time given to me to do so. I’m to report to Manpower Base for signing up.

WTF is this man?

Didn’t i already signed up an ID, and submitted a deferment application? What’s the other things i need to do?! Don’t really get it. Now i’m calling the NS Services Centre.

Cya!

The DOs and DON’Ts!

Published by calvin-old under The Past

Serangoon’s Kopitiam BURNT!

Here’s a news Update!

The Kopitiam in Serangoon, just a block away from my house, was burnt today at around 3 plus.

The strong smell and heavy fog made everyone wonder what the fook happened, so i think all KPOs went downstairs to have a look la?

I didnt, but maybe i’ll go visit it after the fire was put off, and when all the ducks and chickens in the chicken rice store becomes real black. I’ll post a few photos here if possible, later.

Maybe you’ll get to see more of such photos in today’s newspaper! =D

Impacts on Calvin: He will never get to enjoy the lovely, heavenly, dunno-what-ly fishball noodles anymore! However, he knew that the place will be renovated and will serve its customers again. This time, much much much more hygienic!

However, this means that there will be costs incurred on renovating and newer and better infrastructure. This would mean that part of the cost will be passed on to the consumers, like poor Calvin. So he will need to pay a higher cost for a bowl of fishball noodles. :(

Anyway, a new “restaurant” will be opened at my block soon. Which means they will not face any competitions. Umm.. Did the restaurant owner planned the fire? Hopefully not. :\ Even though that’s one of the evil strategy to maximise total revenue!

Hehe, so we learnt Economics, and EVIL Economics. (=

Anyway.. Let’s change topic.

AVA Recruitment Results

Kinda pathetic. Out of all the 40+ J1 students who put their name and contact number down for AVA recruitment did not turn up for today’s AVA. It may be due to “trials” or whatever they had for other CCAs they may be interested in. So yeah.. AVA has a lower priority perhaps?

So yeah.. The results! 4 of them turned up for today’s AVA meeting.

Not bad eh?

Interesting photos - The DOs and DON’Ts!

I received this mail from Fulin. Yes yes very interesting! I’ll share a few pictures here. If you want the full thing, leave a comment!

image002.jpg

No breast milk? Maybe chest fats..

image003.jpg

Don’t be a dog!

image007.jpg

Hehe.. This is kinda funny. Treating your baby like a dog in a chicken cage or something. Yeah i remember my rooster live in such big cages last time..

image013.jpg

I dont know about this one. This look a bit weird.. Won’t your baby already be dead by the time you throw in the first few items on the shopping cart?! Or maybe the baby’s skull be cracked into halves?!

image015.jpg

Erm.. Bodybuilder wannabe!

image017.jpg

Washing your car, your dog, or your baby?

image018.jpg

Hehehehehe! I love this one!! Drying your baby in a washing machine on high speed spinning mode? Maybe thats a bit of roller coaster!

Last but not least..

Saving up for underwater trips? Just stay in the aquarium for house-breed fishes!

Thats it for today. Thank you and have a great day ahead.

Youareblocked.com

Published by calvin-old under The Past

Welcome to www.YouAreBlocked.com

The password eating website, where you type in your email address and password, they store your contacts on a database, and massively “advertise” their website again to others. Whats more? You may end up having your password revealed to those “developers”!

I received many many emails about this fake service. But i have not tried them yet.

Is it safe? Their website claims that it’s safe! Of course, why wouldn’t the developer says it’s safe to use? So that techno-geeks and noobies will trust that site, and use their service! Ohh. it’s FREE anyway! (:

From my point of view.. I don’t think there are ANY method of finding who blocked you. There’s only a way to check who is ONLINE. So i was guessing if they multi-tasked, whereby they scan your contacts for online users on their MSN servers, then compare it with the actual online users in your contact list, then they compare it. If there’s a difference, then the contact might have either deleted you, or blocked you.

But then again, what if the user is “appearing offline”?

So this is kinda confusing. I don’t really know how the contacts work. But i don’t think any block checking service will work now!

So my point is.. Never ever enter your password into these stupid block checking websites. If someone blocked you, then let them do it! Why bother to know who blocked you? Are you going to beat the person up after school? :D

Raise Up your hand if you still trust such service! 

Post up a comment leaving me your email address if you still believe in such things. Maybe i’ll set up a similar service to hack your account (;

Cool Advertisements 

I was checking my email when i found some forwarded mails. Usually i would just tick the email and dump it on the trashcan. But the subject caught my attention.

The mail was from WanChin, it says “AWESOME ADS!!

Actually i received some similar stuff, but this time there were some new and cool advertisements. I’ll put up those i’ve never seen before.

att357229.jpg

Hehe i love this one. The dogs are chasing after something called “Tiernitos”. Some doggy sweets perhaps? I dont know..

Here’s another one..

att357242.jpg

Woah isn’t this cool also? If i’m the designer, i think i’ll put a big big mole on the nose so people can laugh at you when you drink from the cup. Hee hee! =b

Thats it for today. See ya! (=

NAPFA GOLD!

Published by calvin-old under The Past

Napfa Test

So happy lah.. I got GOLD for NAPFA!!

HEHEHehehehehehehHEHEHE… which means i don’t have to serve extra weeks for my NS? HEHEHEHEheheheHEHEHehehe….!!

Okok. Here’s what happened during NAPFA today.

We gathered for morning assembly at 7.30am sharp, and had a quick morning assembly before we went to change to our PE attire. After which, we went straight to the field for NAPFA test.

JC Year 2 tests are a bit challenging, because you need to do the 5 stations and 2.4km run at the same day. Which means, after you finished your 5 stations, the 2.4km will be next, without any rest. (yes, maybe 5 minutes rest?)

Station #1- Standing Broad Jump

Before the NAPFA test, i was stretching here and there because i think if you stretch your muscle, you become more elastic. So you can move around quickier. I’m not sure if that’s the reason, but at least i tried it, and it works well for me.

So the first station was a torture at first. Since there were many groups taking the same station at one time, about 3 other PE groups from other classes, we had to wait. During that waiting time, me and my friend tried some test jumps and found that i couldn’t do alot lah.

I was so afraid you know. OMG, you ask Dingjie, it was so terrible. I couldn’t get a C grade. My jumping score was just a low 220++. IT WAS TERRIBLE.

So what i did was a few hops and make sure the knees touches the chest. I did that for quite a few times, without anymore test jumps, my name was called!

OMFG. SO FAST MY TURN AR???

Altogether we had 2 tries. First time, i did a lousy one. But i didn’t expect the result to be much better than the test jump i did. Maybe because i’m a bit more serious? I dont know leh. But somehow after the 2 jumps, my score improved.

Score for SBJ: 233cm (C)

Station #2 - Sit and Reach

Okay. After that, my PE group went for the next station. Which is Sit and Reach. Basically you just need to be flexible. I wasn’t at first, but i did some stretches before the NAPFA remember? Clarence helped me with the stretching, so i am able to go further. Yeah..

So once again my name was called. Everytime my name was called, i was like.. Oh shit, really my turn? Oh please give me at least a C grade!! I need a gold!

Did my sit and reach.. Good result!

Score for SNR: 53cm (A)

Station #3 - Pull Ups

Okay. Once again, i hate pull-ups. I remember in Secondary school, i cannot really do alot. Result i got are usually 2-3, with my arms bent.

But because our PE teacher was kinda great. She did pull ups with us, trained with us during all PE lessons, our pull ups really improved drastically. So yeah..

JIALAT AH. It’s Mr Tan in charge of pull ups leh!

Before our PE group’s turn, i saw a few students taking their pull-up tests. Mr Tan was like.. “no, not counted. no, arms bent not counted, no, legs bent not counted. NO! No kicking, not counted.”

Yeah lor, so i was very very scared.

MY NAME WAS CALLED AGAIN!!

Okay, i did my pull up. At the 6th pull up, Mr Tan began shouting, “No not counted, legs bent.”

I did another time, Mr Tan shouted, “NO not counted, legs still bent.”

I did another time, Mr Tan finally said, “six”. By that time i was already so happy lah.. 6 means i got C liao leh. Then i was quite tired liao, i came down the bar. Yay i got 6!

Score for Pull-Ups: 6 (C)

Station #4 - 4×10 Shuttle Run

I’m not really worried about this one.. So i was kinda relaxed. There are 2 examiners altogether. One was Miss Lam. She gave super strict time recording. So i told Woody (who was taking the results paper) NOT to ask Miss Lam to record our timing.

Then Mr Yong was there too. His time recording was excellent lah. Almost all runners got their time below 10seconds. So i felt more comfortable. I told Woody to bring the paper to Mr Yong instead.

Yes really. My timing was below 10 seconds. Woody’s too.

Score for Shuttle Run: 9.4 sec (A)

Station #5 - Sit-Ups

Kinda strict this time. Don’t really got the “time” to cheat. Because the teacher is always looking at us. Moreover we only got 4 people taking the test at one time.

Mr Goh was the examiner. He make sure all of us count out the scores for our partner loudly. So he was listening to all our scores. So yeah.. no time for cheating. LOL!

Did quite a few, and i think Woody helped me by 1 sit up if i’m not wrong. LOL!

Score for Sit-Ups: 45 (A)

2.4km Run/Walk

Even though the name of 2.4km is called “2.4km Run/Walk”, i don’t think people really walk 6 rounds ba? Not so stupid right? If you do so, the recorder will have a hard time recording for you because it will take more than an hour. LOL!

Okay.. So it was really.. TERRIBLE!

My legs were a bit crampy.. My arms was tired. My abs was super crampy too, after the sit-ups. In conclusion, NO ENERGY!

I told Woody i’m running beside him, because he’s kinda fast in 2.4km. I told him if he can run faster, go with his own pace and don’t wait for me. (oh and i dont think he will wait for me ba? LOL).

Okay so thats it. Miss Ng is our recorder. YAY!

2.4km started. From far, you can hear “supporters” calling your name, and say jiayou jiayou, and people saying, “faster la, too slow”.

I was running behind Woody at a correct pace. First round was slow. I don’t know why. I don’t have the energy to run, i felt as if my legs are breaking soon.

3rd round, OMG i really cannot take it. When i run the 3rd round, i was thinking, “OMG, 3 more rounds? which means i’ve to suffer the same kind of pain for another 3 of such rounds??!!”.

So that made my performance go down la.. I began to be “depressed”.. Then i couldnt catch up with Woody. OMG WHERE IS WOODYYY!!!!!

Then after the 4th round, i told myself, “oh yes! 2 more rounds only leh.. very fast one. its just like u run another run then 5th round, left 1 round. so mus continue to run for 5th round!”.

Yes yes so it works. I ran faster. I managed to catch up with Woody again. Then it was the fifth round… AND….. 6th!!! Then.. ENDED.

OMG it was sooooo dammmnnn difficult lar.. But i managed to finish it.

I’m not taking anymore 2.4km runs! =x

Score for 2.4km Run: 11min 30sec (C)

Thats it. NO MORE NAPFA!!! ARGHHHHHH… (at least for this year!)

So i calculated. I’ve 3As and 3Cs. Totaling up to 24 points. YES YES! GOLD!!

Math Lecture

Okay let’s change topic. Hehehe..

We had math lecture today after GP, and the lecturer was again, OMG.

He teach half way, heard some noises from the pupils, and began to be angry. He started saying, “you all want me to do this right?”, and started throwing a lecture book from the lecture table across the stage.

Then he said again, “i know you all will fall asleep. so must add more variety to the lecture”. Yes yes we understand. By throwing everything and make us feel “shocked”.

Too bad i wasn’t shocked. I was thinking, “GEEE, HE’s DUMB!”.

Then, he began throwing his water bottle. I won’t want to say throw lah. He actually rolled it across the stage. I know he wouldn’t want his bottle to crack and water splashes everywhere. It was so embarassing of him to do that lah.

Then he was speaking and scolding us again, as if to say, “want me to throw somemore? go sleep and talk again!”.

Then i heard some pupils telling the teacher, softly, “go throw your laptop lah?”.

SO FUNNY LAH!

I wonder what will happen if he really threw his laptop. But i am 100% sure, guarantee, chop he won’t do it.

So yeah.. He was so angry and he started to skip a large section on Differentiation. He said, “okay examples are filled up, skip!” He skipped to the next page.

Woahhhhh?!

Then he was thinking a bit, then suddenly said, “ok la, cannot skip. not allowed to skip.. and he return back to the previous section and apologised to us”.

What is this la?

Okay. Thats it for today. Oh did i say who the teacher was? Nope. It can be someone in my dreams.. I don’t know. I just had a good sleep after i came home from school :)

Clarence Chng

Why did i put Clarence Chng as my blog post’s title today? Because i remember Clarence’s blog was shown no.1 when typed “Clarence Chng” on Google.

Now i’m going to try beat it! Ohh, if u kept seeing Clarence Chng on my post today, then it’s a way to boost my chance of getting to the top google list.

Lame eh? No loh, its fun! C’mon..

Alevel SPA

Was a super last minute revision today in Cafe with Clarence Chng.. Didn’t went down to the canteen because if i get there i surely won’t memorise anything. At least i revised a bit during that 40 minutes or so in Cafe.

Went to the chemistry lab. Very afraid. What if i mind blank?!

Question paper on the table. Everything ready, 2.15pm everybody started. Luckily this time dont have 2 teachers, or else i surely cmi one.. Luckily it was our chemistry tutor! YAY!

I tried to regurgitate what i’ve memorised yesterday’s night. Remembered most of them, but some parts were missing, but i dont think they are important anyways? I dont know la.. Anyway, we won’t know our result, so why bother thinking about that. FORGET IT!

Throw all your Thermochemistry notes away!!! Clarence Chng, throw them away!!

NAPFA Test on Friday

So Annebelle Ng bluff us la? She say our NAPFA 2.4km and 5 stations will be separated 2 days.. Until today’s PE, the PE HOD said both the 5 stations and 2.4km are on the same day!!!

OMG?

Moreover, we will have our 5 stations before the 2.4km run, which means.. your leg will be so damn tired by the jumping and ur abs will be like “dieing” after the sit up. Your arm will be sleeping because you did pull-ups.

Lidat how can? Awwwww…..

Those who want a re-test for a particular station, they have to re-do everything, including the 2.4km

So give your best shot guys! That includes Clarence Chng!

Internet Bank Phishing

Published by calvin-old under The Past

Bank of America - Phishing!

I just received a mail from a bank. Woah? I didn’t know i owned an account in Bank of America. So interesting, i opened the mail.

*This post is a guide to help you detect phishing!

The email was sent from bankofamerica.com

Sounds correct eh? Read on.

I looked at the original email header, and found out something really wrong.

Received: from dpf241.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl ([83.24.139.241])
by web.kyroskoh.com with smtp (Exim 4.67)
(envelope-from <technical-support_num_68cem@bankofamerica.com>)
id 1JRDlC-0003R6-6E

Hmm.. this is a bit creepy. Because the sender came from Poland? ermm.. It’s just like someone from SingTel (a Singapore telco company) emailed you all the way from Bangladesh. It’s so weird!

Read further!

They provided a link, asking me to confirm my member details. Alright, the link looks correct. This is how the link looks like:

bank11.PNG

Okay, half the picture. But you sorta get it? It looks real because it comes from bankofamerica.com which is a domain for Bank Of America.

Then mouseover it, look at the actual link:

bank21.PNG

Now it looks a bit wrong. What?! It comes from base94.net?

Base94.net is a domain, the subdomain is bankofamerica.com.base94.net

Nice way of hiding, but sometimes they just get caught by my eyes! Anyways.. No banks will ask you to type password for confirmation. They usually send letters or whatsoever.

If you get any of such mails, (lets just say its from a bank you have an account in), call your bank immediately to double check. It’s better to be safe than sorry!

Clicked on the link, here’s what i saw:

bank31.PNG

Usually when i get such phishing mails, i’ll go into their page, and type rubbish. Like this!

bank41.PNG

And then, click on Confirm Certificate! Tada~ You’re done!

Oops? Alevel Chemistry SPA tomorrow. All jiayou, and make sure you get Level 8 for every tasks!!
