I noticed a few days ago that i'm actually in the faculty of arts & social sciences, or 'fass' in short. hence, it'd only be logical to say that i'm actually studying arts & social sciences, or 'ass'. it's fun to be studying ass in fass. thankfully we can only get a bachelor in either arts or social sciences and not both or my resume would read 'bachelor in ass'. and it's even worse for those who went on for phd and get a 'phd in ass'. if you are a fan of american tv sitcom f.r.i.e.n.d.s, you would know that phd can mean 'pretty huge dick'. are you thinking about getting a 'phd in ass'?

then, the fact that we use acronyms so extensively dawned on me and it is becoming difficult to comprehend what we are trying to bring across. we can now drive along pie, we used to pay our electricity bills at pub and professionals who aren't happy with their employers may lodge a complaint to mom (something we've been doing since young). and you realise that nothing makes sense when i do away with caps. acronyms have brought about convenience and at the same time, inconvenience. i remember a few years back when my friend, suresh was standing somewhere in town when a foreign worker with a thick indian accent came to him asking, 'excuse me, may i know where's yimka?' if you frown and wonder what crap that is, you are not alone. uncertain if he heard it correctly, suresh requested the man to repeat.

man: yimka
suresh: sorry but i'm not sure
man: ok

but being a singaporean, suresh did not want to give up - how can we not know our geography? so suresh asked if the man has a name card of the place and the man took out a card that read - ymca. are you amazed how this man is able to read ymca as a word? i am!

now back to the spyware case i was talking about in a previous entry, i broke the record again with 5 formats in a day. now, who can beat that? if you would like to set a new record, please call 1800-which-idiot-would-want-to-do-that. i repeat, it's 1800-which-idiot-would-want-to-do-that. our customer service officer will attend to you immediately.
