it's the OS course i've been bitching about ....Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Uh oh. That does not sound good. Care to elaborate?
well ... this prick is famous for giving killer mids that are impossible to finish ... but i think he's really outdone himself this time .... -
If it's any consolation, you're probably not the only one who found it difficult. If the paper is going to be graded on a curve, you might not actually do so bad.Originally posted by Fatum:it's the OS course i've been bitching about ....

Hmm... glancing at SB right now, I have to wonder why a person would give himself a handle of "F*cking B*tch"....
-
yups ... i wasn't the only one, everyone was cursing and swearing right after the class .... but it's a lousy thing to do if you ask me ... students would be so demoralised and turn off on the subject .....Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:If it's any consolation, you're probably not the only one who found it difficult.

We both can shake hands. We about have the same stuff for lunch at our respective "camp". -
nah.. Scrapped Princess.. kinda.. lost on me...
i found it kinda silly actually...
trying and not succeeding in grabbing my attention and empathy
as for idiot profs and teachers who think they can "find the gem amongst the rubble" by slaughtering everyone, they are doing everyone an injustice... they are not there to find that gem, they are there to impart skills and knowledge.. the needs of the many cannot be sacrificed for the glamour of finding that one... -
Oh, Fatum.......sorry to hear. But rant it out here lah.
Hey, did you two check out SO forum on the Food thread or not? Fatum, you may be able to find it in Saskatoon. -
nicely put .... unfortunately some profs get an ego trip with each slaughter .... the only consolation is that even the grad students taking this class were bitching about it ....Originally posted by the Bear:nah.. Scrapped Princess.. kinda.. lost on me...

And yes, Fatum.......I'll be in the cheer squad too. Just remember to send the cheque in the mail. Somebody told me nothing is free in this world.

Did the "Ah Beng" subtitle job have anything to do with that?Originally posted by the Bear:nah.. Scrapped Princess.. kinda.. lost on me...

(I'm still hoping for a full-size wallscroll of my favourite character from the series, CZ!) -

chelsea playing real betis..
wondering if the "lowly" real betis can shut mourinho's gob?
as for scrapped princess... what made me lose interest is the silliness of naming their characters... reminded me of another silly and pretentous anime where their superpowers were named after heavymetal bands... it was meant to be serious and i was paralysed with laughter after one episode, and could not keep a straight face for the next, and totally lost interest after...
same thing here...
a story, maybe okay story, got caught in the whole silliness.. and worse, the story is kinda... dull and predictable... just like that woman... without paying attention to about 10 episodes in a row, you knew it was her mother.. and i have kinda lost interest...
just watching the last episodes to see who blows up what... -
Simi cup lai eh? English eh si boh? Anyways, soccer not so popular here lah, or so I think lah. I may be wrong. But ice hockey is our game and the fever is here.Originally posted by stellazio:Simi sg??Chelsea..
Anyways, you both enjoy the game lah. Hope whichever team you want win, wins. -
i'm just beside myself for not being able to find the MAD Magazine Ice Hockey Primer... it was hilarious!

yeah... actually, looking at Chelsea, i think they should self-destruct after a while like Real Madrid..
don't you think so?Originally posted by stellazio:bear and i on opposite sides.. -
You do realize that all of the characters and locales in SP have firearms or firearms-related names, right?Originally posted by the Bear:as for scrapped princess... what made me lose interest is the silliness of naming their characters... reminded me of another silly and pretentous anime where their superpowers were named after heavymetal bands... it was meant to be serious and i was paralysed with laughter after one episode, and could not keep a straight face for the next, and totally lost interest after...

As for Queen Elmeyer being Pacifica's biological mother, if that wasn't already obvious in episode three from their similar hairstyles, you were probably watching the series with your eyes closed.
Admittedly, a number of people in my animé club were put off when the series took a dramatic "sci-fi" turn, but when everything is revealed in the final episode, it all falls together very nicely and starts to make sense.
And did you know that "live" soccer matches are best viewed on your VCR? -
Oh, like that ah?
Never mind lah. Healthy "competition".
Okay, people, I need to nap a while. It is really dead in the office. I probably could read but that's what making me sleepy.
