AS? ASS you mean….

Hello ppl… just a quick blog to vent my frustration of my AS level exams.



1. Pure Maths Paper 1 9709/1



2. Computing for Geniuses



3. Statistics paper 6 9709/6



The biggest questions sadly from my year,

ARE YOU SURE THIS IS AS?

THEY DIDNT MIX THE QUESTION PAPERS UP RIGHT?

I JUST FOUND A NEW CHEMICAL ELEMENT WHICH DOES NOT ADHERE TO ANY CHEMICAL TESTS OR PROPERTIES! HUH? WHAT HISTOGRAM?

BETTER START STUDYING FOR NOVEMBER!

I DONT GIVE A #*&$ HOW MANY CHOCOLATE COOKIES ARE THERE IN A $#Q(*&^ RANDOM SAMPLE OF #($*& MIXED COOKIES IF I CHOOSE 4 FROM A BOX OF 400



and the list goes on…. guess what



4. Pure mathematics paper 3



5. Mechanics



to go…. yay…. ;p

The thermodynamics of Hell

— posted at May 27th, 2003 by zaaba in Blog

The following is an actual question on a University of Washington mid-term Chemistry paper. One student’s answer was so good that the examiner shared it with colleagues via the internet.



Bonus Question:



Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?



Most of the students wrote proofs of the beliefs using Boyle’s Law i.e. gas cools off when it expands and heats up when compressed or some variant thereof.



One individual, however, wrote the following…



First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing over time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are entering and leaving. I think we can safely assume that once a soul arrives in Hell, it will not be departing. Therefore, no souls are leaving.



As for the number of souls entering Hell, we must look at the various religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you are damned. Since there are several of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number there to increase exponentially.



Now we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to remain constant, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.



This gives two possibilities:



a) if Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose; or



b) if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase in souls, then the temperature and pressure will fall until Hell freezes over.



So which is it?



If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that “....it’ll be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you” and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then b) cannot be true. Thus, I am left with and am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze.



The student received the only A grade given.

Matrix: Revolutions Trailer

Ok, to those unfortunate ppl who did not get to see the Revolutions trailer at the cinema, td.com has a bit of a jewel for download. It’s the trailer for Revolutions coming out in November. I foresee a leeching btw…



Matrix: Revolutions Trailer




[EDIT: I’ve added the direct link to the trailer. It’s approx 10MB in size and requires the DivX codec. Will be taking it down in a couple of days so get it while it’s hot]



Pay attention to details!

Sushi!

Heh… just came back from the Manchester University’s Japanese Cultural Event thinggy. Hehe… 5 quid for LOTS AND LOTS OF SUSHI huhuhu! Well, we were only supposed to have 1 round, but being a disciple of the Naq “H” Team, I went not once, not twice but THREE times! Yes you lot, you can be proud of me :)



Basically there was a slideshow about Japan, showcasing this and that and then came the FOOD. OoOoOoh… my cravings all nicely satisfied. Honestly, I don’t know exactly WHAT I had, only that the food was TOTEMO OISHI des. And for 5 quid too woot! I shan’t bore you with more details, I’ll let the nice photoblog do the speaking.



whack whack whack!

The Matrix:Reloaded

— posted at May 21st, 2003 by zaaba in Blog

Ok, call this “movie hype” if you will, but I just came back from watching Reloaded at the cinema. The UK decided to release the movie 1 week after the official release date in the States (15 June) AND EVEN LATER THAN MALAYSIA! Wow… that’s probably a first.



But actually, I think that’s a smart thing to do; releasing movies faster in the Eastern countries. That way, you’d probably be able to get around them VCD pirates (quality bagus punya haha! – Remember that advert?) who hang around night markets and my fav VCD haunt – Uptown.



I actually watched the movie a week ago (PIRATTTTEEE! I SCREAM PIRAATTTEEEE) but hey, come on, I watched the thing at the cinema didn’t I? Doing my part in giving WB and the Waichowski (sp) brothers more cash and moolah. Sheesh…



Anyway, spoilers await so I shan’t say more.



Oh, and if you DO watch the movie, stay on longer after the credits roll for a teaser for Revolutions :P



I’m going to setup the comment system after this. All about cause and effect. This post, definitely BEGS comments :)

Well, it with great reluctance that I present to you the RARE TREASURE HUNT PHOTOS! Few eyes have feasted (WTF???) on these rarities… Be prepared for the WORST though, as these photos are only to be viewed by people with the strongest of stomachs and a penchant for images so… so… tasteful (again, WTF???).

Is there life after love?

— posted at May 14th, 2003 by luc in Blog

Salutations peeps…



Sorry i havent been posting for a while… but i had plenty of other things on my mind… A combination of exams and such else…. Sigh. Anyway, notice the title… contrary to popular belief, there IS life after a breakup! Quoting a friend of mine…



After A breakup, if you had something special, you can never be friends, it wont be the same!




Rubbish. Utter rubbish. recently, Jennifer and I broke up, for reasons that cant be disclosed, but now we are the best friends anyone can ever have. Stronger a relationship dare i say than many of you have with your significant others… In my humble opinion, Love is when the welfare and status of your partner is as important to you, moreso more important than your own. So if God wills it that you break up, why put yourself thru a phase of ‘Uneasyness’ with your ex? God works in VERY wierd ways…. Everything happens for the best, so if you were meant to be friends, so be it… if you were really meant for each other, then HE will make it happen! =)



I believe that if you really love that person, even after you break up, you will have an even “Special – er” relationship. If you get back together, it will be stronger. It takes a special relationship in the first place to make you feel that way. All you couples out there ask yourself. Should you break up, CHOI are you willing to hang on to a special sort of relationship with your ex regardless of the situtaion, based on the feelings that made you fall in love in the first place?



Of course this is assuming the breakup is not based on the fact your partner cheated on you or burnt your house down but is a very normal breakup. Never hate your ex even if they did cheat, but just take it upon your own self to ask yourself if your relationship was satisfying. If it was, why would your partner cheat in the first place? It takes two hands to clap. And im very happy to say, Jennifer and I are clapping to the same beat. I am sorry for the General comments and religious undertones, direct your hatemail at my addy anarc@truedeath.com



Think about it. Hold no hatred in your heart, as even your greatest nemesis does not deserve a word so callous as Hate.

In Malay, "Jubo" = Ass @  Buttocks. So, the sign reads: Raj's Ass. And yes, that's the name of the restaurant. LOL

Addiction

— posted at May 12th, 2003 by zaaba in Blog

Well, I have 3 weeks to go before my exam counter hits zero. Soon after, I’ll be counting the days to the 11th of June when my exams finish. And following that, another countdown to the 15th, when I’ll be flying back home to Malaysia.



Seeing how dependant I am on countdowns to tell me exactly how much time I have left to properly prepare myself for events to come, I can only wonder how is it I had the time to dig up my PS2 out of my closet for a nice round of Guilty Gear XX: The Midnight Carnival to ease my umm… tension (hee hee – alasan… alasan…) I had it buried in there for a full month believe it or not!



Guilty Gear X2




My temporary umm… lapse in momentum has ultimately encouraged me to put this new gadget up on my wishlist up with my yet-to-be-bought guitar.



Looks into coin box LOL



Lastly, here’re some bittorrent links in line with the truedeath.com love of all things good, cheap and free. These include comics, tv shows, DVD movies, books, programs and hehe… pr0n!
