Wii = LOADS of fun!
Originally posted by jetta:Before tax. Did I tell you I managed to get my hands on a Wii about two weeks ago? My co-worker in the TV dept said she was checking stock in the back room and stumbled on a Wii that was tucked in a dark corner. She ran to my dept to tell me about it. -
You said it. And along with it comes sore arms and legs. My kids over-Wii'ed.Originally posted by the Bear:Wii = LOADS of fun! -
she says something about hoping he will be able to concentrate etc when he starts uni in the fall.Originally posted by udontknowme:NOT holidays ar....!
VERY close to exams now.

unis look at final year results!
and she did mention his grades are consistent. so i think no worries. take it as a hobby.
as mentioned i prob played what seemed to be too much to quite a few pple too. and i did not too bad( okz there is a chance i might have got a 1st class if i was really no life and only studied....). i was lucky in that my parents knew i was dedicated to gettign good results; they were the ones who were tellign me its ok if i didn't do that well

Ours is slowly going down the drain.Originally posted by the Bear:yeah.. i think the approach to education everywhere requires a revamp..
In all honesty, I'm glad that I'm not a secondary or Pre-U student at this point in time. Basically every single 'improvement' that the ministry has been introducing is pulling our education further and further down the abyss.
I can still remember how my batch was the last to not require SAT test scores for admission to NUS and NTU. Some of my friends who couldn't get the courses they wanted had to pay a bundle of dosh just to study for the SAT and to take it - all while doing their NSF liability. They actually stayed up after lights out to study under their blankets by the light of their L-torches.
I can still remember how much they cursed and swore when the MOE did an abrupt about-turn and announced that SAT was no longer needed. -
That's why you-know-who has started Wii'ing too.Originally posted by shinta:sounds like a good way to lose weight

okz lets see. knowledge of erm some ancient idiot liked to dig his nose?Originally posted by av98m:But if they do follow the news and current affairs, they will know that manufacturing/assembly is all headed over to countries like India and China and that they should seriously consider retraining for a different vocation based on how the local economy is restructuring instead of being caught by suprise when their factories announce a mass layoff or close shop altogether.
There is no such thing as useless knowledge really. -

One man's meat is another man's poison. What is inane to you may be interesting stuff to someone else.
At the very least you will always have something interesting to tell a girl you like, and is convenient fodder for chitchat... rather than... the weather... my job... my lunch today.... the sad state of no increment....Originally posted by hisoka:okz lets see. knowledge of erm some ancient idiot liked to dig his nose? -

That's what my friends back there tell me all the time. Our kids were born the same year and they always tell me how lucky I am that my kids are not exposed to the stressful Sg education system.Originally posted by stellazio:
