My new year resolution: "To consider my future and to act maturedly. May The Coming Year Be A BETTER Year For BOTH You And I".
To all my friends, gently remind me if i were to detour from my resolution.
I was taking a nap while listening to Yes!93.3FM and I caught a very sweet love chinese poem. Obviously, I did catch only part of the whole poem. So, i googled for the phrase and found it. Here it goes.
想你！是很甜蜜的事；
念你！是很窩心的事；
見你！是很開心的事；
請妳！是很光榮的事；
陪妳！是很有趣的事；
愛你！是很應該的事；
騙你！是剛發生的事！
What it means is:
To think of you, is a very sweet thing;
To read you (I suppose it should be to spell out your name), is a very frustrating thing;
To meet you, is a very happy thing;
To please you, is a very honourable thing;
To be with you, is a very interesting thing;
To love you, is a very proper thing;
To deceive you, is something that has just happened.(I removed this part cos it is kinda not so cool).
With this, let us all leave year 2005 with a great hope that year 2006 would be filled with plenty of LOVE. Be it from family members, friends, spouses and/or boy-/girl-friends.
Throughout the course of life, people are bound to be given nicknames. Some are good names while others are bad. I would argue that nickname plays a good role in placing a bookmark of yourselves on others’ mind. Nickname can also be used to measure social interactions. If you are more sociable(aka one who is more prone to be played a prank on), you are bound to get more nicknames from your friends.
Since young, I have been given plenty of nicknames by my family members and friends. Let me list some of them here:
By my family…
1. Ai cai (shortie) - I "was" the shortest in my family when i was young.
2. Yia tuai (pampered child) - who to blame? I am the youngest in the family.
By the parent’s friends:
3. Yan Dao Ba (handsome boy) - I "was" handsome when i was young but I am not sure I still am now.
4. Bi Kok Kia (Western child) - By the salesperson, is tat a marketing strategy or is it a compliment on my nose??
By my friends…
5. Ostrich - YJC 2S7 really is made up of animals
6. Kumis (mustache) - NTU 2nd year just cos i keep my mustache
7. Bonding - NTU 3rd Year just cos i rebonded my hair
8. Om Om (Uncle) - NTU 3rd Year, originally from indoNTU Prom Nite
On Virtual world,
9. ^SkIeR_17 - skier is recommended by Hsiao Ling(Bowen Sec friend) if i remembered correctly and 17 is the age i did own a computer and logged onto the internet.
These are to name a few. Social nicknames are funny and memorable. Imagine this… When I grow old and reflect on my social life, I would recall all these nicknames and send a smile to my face :D.
So, wat are your nicknames?
Dear Diary,
Hari ini penuh dengan "kenangan". Erwin mulai lagi nge-blog; mencatat detik-detik kehidupannya di dunia Maya. (Dunia Erwin dong, kok dunia Maya? *ga pernah serius neh anak! Dewasa uey, dewasa!)
Hari dimulai dari jam 630 di pagi hari. Burung berkicau, Embun… (Gila loe win? Yg serius dong). Bangun tidur secara otomatis mandi dan gosok gigi. Muka berseri-seri mengingat hari ini paper terakhir. Econs, setelah libur 8 hari(nonton 6 hari blajar 2 hari = nice proportion), satu-satunya pelajaran semester ini yg banyak past year nya dan banyak pula jawaban. Maksudnya banyak jawaban past year yg salah.
Mulai blajar jam 7 ditemanin dengan secangkir kopi hangat. 2 jam lagi!! 2 jam lagi!! Teng, jam 9 berangkat ke Hall D. Dan exam pun mulai. Tick tock tick tock. Please stop writing! When there are more than one answer booklet *blah blah blah*. Makan deh bareng temen2 SCE.
Abis itu, balik ke kamar, crash on film dan anime. Tapi sebelumnya (INI PENTING), ganti nick msn –> "Anyone has part-time for vacation? Looking for one".
Di tengah-tengah nonton, di msg Oscar.
Ayo win, bersihin rumah gw aja. Hehe, maaf ya os, lagi cari sesuatu yg bisa menambah isi resume neh.
ada juga dari Bram.
Win, di webmail banyak tuch. Iya neh, emang banyak, tapi pada ga respond resume gw.
Dan yg pasti, yg paling tidak disangka-sangka, Tepat jam [09:41:28 PM],
"Clem: EDWIN: You better think about passing your FYP!!!.."
[Disclaimer : This posting is for private viewing only. The author shall not be held responsible for this quotation]
Itu dia yg paling mengejutkan. Pertama-tama, nama gw aja bisa salah. Sedihnya…
Tapi, intinya itu, gw dikasih kerjaan buat liburan. Hore!! Hore.. Hore?? Itu mah bukan kerjaan tapi tugas FYP mu, Erwin!! ERWIN!! Oh iya ya….
Jadi, intinya ga dikasih kerja part time deh. Begitulah, sebuah hari yg bermulai dengan indah berubah menjadi… *Bentar! blm selesai.
FYP sup gw bilang "enjoy your wkend.. see you Monday". Yah, setidaknya hari menjadi normal lagi deh. At least buat weekend ini.
Nah, sekarang sudah menghabiskan 20 menit-an waktu nonton gw(opportunity cost of writing a blog = watching an episode of anime. Econs amet seh? Mau ulang lagi? No, thanks).
Semoga besok bisa lebih cerah lagi. Apalagi kencan berdua dengan Honey (baca Hanny) di NP kemudian rapat yearbook malamnya.
明天会跟好!
Cheers (kanpai!!),
Erwin Liong

The List of Elephant Jokes
Q: How do you Catch a White Elephant?
A: Go to an place where there are white elephants. Bring with you a muffin (with raisins). Climb a tree. When the white elephant is close, drop the muffin (with raisins) in front of it. The white elephant will be happy, and eat the muffin (with raisins). White elephants like muffins (with raisins). Repeat this procedure for five days in a row. After the fifth day, the white elephant will be used to its daily muffin (with rasins). The sixth day you climb the tree, bring with you a muffin without rasins. Drop the muffin as usual. When the white elephant finds out that the muffin lacks rasins, it will darken in anger. And then you catch it the same way as an ordinary grey elephant.
Q: How many elephants does it take to change a lightbulb ?
A: Two, but it has to be a pretty big light bulb!
A: Only one, but it has to stand on a trunk to do it.
Q: How do you Catch a Grey Elephant?
A: Go to an place where there are grey elephants. Look for a tree that you can climb. Bring with you a mouse. Climb the tree. When the grey elephant is close, drop the mouse in front of it. As all elephants are scared of mice, the grey elephant will be scared, and turn pale with fright. And then you catch it the same way as an ordinary white elephant.
Q: How do you shoot a blue elephant?
A: With a blue elephant gun, of course.
Q: How do you shoot a red elephant?
A: No, not with a red elephant gun. You strangle him until he turns blue, and then shoot him with a blue elephant gun.
Q: How do you shoot a green elephant?
A: Tell him a dirty joke so he turns red, strangle him until he turns blue, and then shoot him with a blue elephant gun.
Q: How do you shoot a yellow elephant?
A: Ever seen a yellow elephant?
Q: Why won’t they allow elephants in public swimming pools?
A: Because they might let down their trunks.

The poem below is extracted from my testimonial for Andre; with slight modification (more like correction to my grammar). Since I have written it, might as well migrate it to my blog. ;P
Here it goes:
Another Tuesday went by
Time just seems to fly
With words I’ve said I’d never lie
Hoping to build a closer tie
A poem with "ow"
I am a person so shallow
Always feeling so mellow
I don’t know how to play cello
But when I meet my fellow
The least I say is a hello
A poem with "ew"
I wake up this morning to a Monday Blue
I headed straight into the loo
Remembering I have my IA report soon to due
That makes me feel even more "euy"
Then I cut myself a slice of honey dew
Wanting so much to share it with you
But what I have is just so few
So I just give you my view
Yet your face color turns into dark hue
May be tomorrow we can start anew
A Poem with "eak"
Writing my IA report I needed a break
This one I should take
So I went and sat by the lake
Sipping away my milk shake
A serendipity so fake
A poem with "ame"
I am so lame
Trying to act like a great dame
Keeping my heart aflame
Never yearning to have it tamed
Nor wanting to get any blame
Go on and tell me "What a SHAME"
A poem with "est"
Tomorrow I will be having a test
All i need now is a just rest
So I go to a fest
Trying to be a normal lass
A poem with "ask"
This is such a hard task
Our relationship is like a mask
I want to discuss about us
But you make such a big fuss
All I want is for this argument to last
A poem with "eon"
I tried act like Leon
or is it Delon
Trying to look like a felon
To others, I look like a melon
A poem with "oww"
After reading these, some people may feel wowed
While others may feel awed
Some may even take a bow
But this is all for now
