I GOT A D40X AT LAST HAHA!!

Hu hu hu hu ha!!! After 1 year of waiting i finally decided it was the right time to get the D40x!! Used the money i saved for a N95 (i know handphone enthusiast will go What?! now). The Nikon D40x DSLR redefines picture sharpness for me!! Yeah! Bye-bye Chroma Noise! Bye-bye lousy exposures!!



The Nikon D40x DSLR with me (slow shutter rocks!!)

No more noise!! Background blurring with large aperture!!

Hi Teacher!!!

Hi teacher do you like my blog? Nice colour scheme right? Cool hantu music right!! Eh teacher you got blog ah? Put the URL in the cbox la!!


To those of you that have no idea what just happened, my class mentor Pn. Mahani found my blog [yeah, damn paiseh man...]. Ya know how she did it without me mentioning the URL to anyone in class? Apparently you can search blogs with Google...


Using Google to find blogs...



Even so it isn't very easy to find someone's blog using this (wha teacher, damn rajin to find my blog ah, tech savvy also, RESPECT!!). Other than me, my classmate Joo Ling also recived the same fate (no hard feelings ah teacher, but not sure about Joo Ling oh..)


The point is anonymity online is not easy, its not difficult also, just use another name entirely la...but the thing is, who really needs it...

College Life

I have entered Taylor's College for four days now, taking SAM (South Australian Matriculation), in class G12. Nothing much to report... i take five subjects not including the LAN subjects (Moral ed and Malaysian Studies), they are Chem, Physics, English, Math and Bio.

These four days seem surprisingly like school to me, cept that you get to wear whatever you please and you have to walk around to get to different classes. Believe me,, you'll get used to it.

Our mentor (class teacher) Pn Mahani who teaches Chem, speaks faster than characters in Speed Racer. She is the no-nonsense type of teacher, which is kinda good. Her teaching method is, different but effective to me (she doesn't teaches chapter by chapter, but by relevance[carbon cycle to green house effect instead of nitrogen cycle])

Math seems like Add math (i am already having problems) and Physics feels like Math. Gosh, I miss Ms Geetha and Mr Khoo.

Bio was a great though. Pn Param (yes Param) is way better than Pn Jamaliah, she teaches in real detail and makes sure everybody understands. I attended my first LAN class today, Mr William's assignments are reaallly interesting, we get to make documentaries and classes are supposed to be very interactive to him, we'll have to see eh. Our first assingment was to make a documentary on Moral Values. Nice.

SAM is coined Self-Abuse Matriculation here, hmmm, i wonder why... nah, i expect SAM to be 10x more stressful than SPM, expected but not prepared for.

Ok, thats all, if there is anything interesting that happened, i'll keep you ppl posted, my very small group of viewers.


Steven Wong, bored Class Rep of G12, out. God, i miss you guys.
