Morning … i m in early today — in fact, i was the first staff here. I dont have the keys to come in but i thought the SC having a meeting at 7am this morning. Hmm … perhaps this Friday morning. Anyway, it is always good to be early! I will see things you normally dont see! LOL.
Market Analysis
Sigh — i watched last night game till Masc being sent off. One goal down, one man down … vs MU, no way they could turn the table. So, i was busy key-in the Market Capitalisation of Malaysia’s top 100 companies, also according to their sectors!! That is thousands of data i key-in. My indicator shown that only a few has % gain from last friday’s price compared to 29th FEB. Before and after election effects on companies. Most being pressed down by 5-20%. Counters like Gamuda, Jaks, MRCB … were >30%. Time to buy??!
Hmm … time to ponder on that …
Candle In The Wind <— i dont like Elton J’s songs much but this one is meaningful
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
"Candle in the Wind" is a song with music by Elton John and lyrics by Bernie Taupin. It was originally written and released in 1973, written in honour of Marilyn Monroe, who had died 11 years earlier.
In 1997, John performed a remake of the song as a tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales. This version of the song was released as a single, and reached number one in many countries, proving a much greater success than the original.

IS students
with Ong Jenn Bing(IS top student - June07) and Tsen Yi Sing(best overall student award). Even tho these kids are above average crying-babies students in our school, they are looong way to learn about EDUCATION. Academically brilliant, with good characters. Yi Sing is also good in sports, a leader in the class and her dad is Mr Tsen, STTSS headmaster!! Hmm … still long way to learn as education is continuous. Keep that up!
Regina Ho : Is the DEGREE needed to be successful?
I hv wanted to write an article about this issue and questions that not many will think about. Is the DEGREE REALLY needed to be successful? Firstly, it depends on HOW you define — success. In the materialistic world, success is always associated with MONEY and POWER. The yardsticks are clear … if u r a MINISTER with POWER to command(and earn as much during your tenure — EAT as much, man. Hold on there … plenty to EAT in corrupted Malaysia, if u know how) … with POWER and MONEY in hands, you will be SEEN as successful. Is that your term as successful? How about human values? How about mental and emotional developments? Or perhaps, GOD? Spiritually faked? Hmm … dont get defensive, i m pointing out your stupidity. That is OK, right?
So, degree will be seen as STATUS — i m XXX degree holder. WHAT? U only got Science Degree from local Uni?! Over again, if u go to church or any gatherings, parents will folk to "discuss" about their educated children! My son just graduated from OZ last month. Wah-liao, aunt XXX … you must be breathing easy now la. WOW. OZ uni … must be extreme good students, they thought.
In real fact, previously in 1980s, if u dont get good STPM results(as u r non-bumi), you may forget about local Uni. Malaya was top50 uni in the world, they wont take u in. You are …eerrr … not good enough, adademically. If your parents is $$-rich to send you to AUZ, then you are the "lucky" one.(in my mind, you are the unfortunate and spoilt brat) Once you grad, you come back, your mom will proudly present you in the gatherings(that is what gathering is for, k? B/day parties, anniversaries etc etc … a platform to COMPARE whose sons/daughters score/done what! LOL). BUT, the real fact is THIS KID is NOT GOOD enough to study STPM(which will make him/her cries). STPM too tough, dont worry … mommy send you to AUZ. Hmm … sound so familiar …
IS your stupid degree make you a HUMAN? Are you one? Are you happier with your degree? Pursuing to Master? Haha. The degree is just a platform to look for a job! If it is merely that, you must be kinda retard too, IMHO(in my humble opinion). WHY? Hmm … whatever you studies/learned in UNI, most probably will NEVER be used in your job! You love MATHS? Haha … wait till you go out into real harsh world, people will dis-regard your LOVE for MATHS(or whatever) … dont be stupid, love the MONEY and POWER. Who cares if you used to love MATHS? LOL.
Your degree is important to be … err … successful? Haha. Says who? Your un-educated parents or church members? Hmm … perhaps, a little mind-opener to some FACTS and TRUTH might scare you off? FEARS? Dont worry, … just wear the NO FEAR cap, you will believe you are NOT in fear! Haha.
Taking a break. Phew! A Love Story <— rabbits laying eggs? Haha. Cant show the ACTS in youtube, lay eggs la. Haha
To Siva : Haha … hey, i made you popular today in the class(130 of them!). Hmm … i shared with them a little story that we do grow-up together and we are successful in our own way. Yup, u r in Shang-international, going places(when are you buying me the ticket to Sydney? Hmm …) and i m still the humble person driving Kancil. Haha. Yup, more importantly, we done our responsibilities and happy doing what we are doing … since young together! friendship of 30+ yrs, man. Kok Kiong too … wonder how he is now. MU beat Liverpool last night. He must be laughing at us. Hmm … send my regards to Shantini and your two gals.
Is our year-end trip to Queensland is on? Mag is expecting the second one. Unless i could get my mom(or in-law) to take care of my new-born, it will be difficult. We shall see, ya. take care …
need to go for a meeting.
