My bowling sucks recently...maybe cos of my weak body system or what..I simply cannot concentrate during bowling games...
I bowled like SHIT for past two weeks...it dun feel great at all cos after so much of bowling, I am not improving??!!!! ANGRY with myself!!....Nah I am not going to bowl for the next few weeks!!....cos it is irritating me!!...
As for mahjong...ppl around me are MORE KEEN in it now compared to me...I kind of lose the interest or maybe cos I tired or not feeling well....so now I just play cos my friends wanna play....
Like what Andy Tan said, maybe I can bowl and play until I feel sick of it then I wun crave for it in Cambodia....yah..I guess it is quite true cos I am not craving for them now...
Maybe it is Singaporean's sickening trait...not treasuring what you have and taking things for granted!!....
Eg. When I get to drink bubble tea almost everyday, I will just feel sick of it and wun crave for it...but if I were to stop drinking for some time, then I will start to crave for it again....
When I get to play mahjong almost every now and then, I will also feel sick of it and wun crave for it....but when ppl around me stop jio-ing me for it for some time then I will start to crave for it again....
Does this apply to everyone or JUST ME???!!!!
Haiz...even in relationship, I am also like that....When I get to see my bf almost every now and then, I will also feel irritated cos I will feel that I dun have time for myself...
I am one who LOVEs little time for myself...maybe ppl out there dun like to be alone...but I like to be alone at times...I can have MANY MANY things to do without getting bored....
For example, I can watch TV...recently hooked with MobTV whereby I can watch all the local production shows for just $10.90 per month....
I can sleep when I feel tired...I can read books too...or surf the internet...Hmmz talking abt surfing the internet...when ppl ask me back "What you do or go when u surf internet?"
Aiya....frankly speaking, it is kind of "complicated" to narrate to you what I exactly do with my computer...cos it is kind of meaningless stuff that I am doing...and I dun feel proud abt what I am going to say.... =P
Basically, I will use MSN...chat with friends..I love to MSN cos I can talk to more than one person at the SAME time and make use of the SAME time to spend a little quality time with my friends..."cheaper" and less troublesome compared to going out... =P
I will go browse friendster...either updating my own profile or to view others' profiles cos I can understand my friends' "situations" more from there....okok...I am just being busybody ok?!!!.....LOLx...
Sometimes I do a bit of research on things that I am curious...eg. how to become slimmer?....haha..although I never follow what they teach la... =P
Or I will read up on things that I have to know...eg. understanding Cambodia slightly better or reading up on the products that Lepol is dealing with....
Aiya...when I tell u what I have to do with the internet, it may sound like I only need one or two hours to do.....BUT that is not the case...cos I can use the whole day or maybe DAYS to do the stuff cos......hmmz I also dun know why...maybe I am SLOW...wow haha....
And of cos blogging...it is just like some ppl dun understand why I can blog for HOURS for just one entry?.... =P Maybe the only reason is cos I am very nagging...
No la...that is maybe part of the reasons...but cos everytime I blog, I will pause in between to go toilet, drink something or maybe calls come in...
Recently, I feel STUPID....cos suddenly feel that I dun think that much...kind of irritating leh....I cannot concentrate doing things...and it look like I am pondering over things....BUT I AM REALLY NOT THINKING OF any solid issues...
True that I am worried over the Cambodia trip cos I still haven get prepared with the stuff that I need to do...and the date to go there is not fixed yet....but my mind is really not thinking of anything...my mind is blank and I am just staring into the air....
Dun know why too la....maybe slack too much at home le...I have been spending 3/4 of these days at home.....doing brainless things like watching TV and sleeping...
My brain is rusting ba....sitting inside my head, growing some algae soon...haha...
SO....just now I took out the Mathematics assessment books and do the problems...hmmz...although it is SECONDARY ONE book but the questions are tat simple ok...it still require some thinking ok....
Give you few examples...in case you thought my brain become so retarded until I can't even do sec one's sums...
Write down two 5-digit numbers using all the digits 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 such that their difference is the smallest. (No repetiton of the digits)
Find the sum of 101 + 102 + 103 + ..... + 198 + 199 + 200.
Just for your info, you CANNOT use calculator for the above questions!!....
In fact, you only have abt 1.5 minutes to do each question.... =P
Haha...not difficult afterall...just that u need to put on ur thinking cap and put some sense into it and u can simply get the answers by doing some simple mental calculations...
Okay...the answers are..........
50123
- 49876
= 247 but WHY??....
First of all, the first digit of each number CANNOT be the same and definitely the first number must be greater than the second number to have a positive difference...at this time, we DUN assume that it is 5 and 4 respectively yet...let's continue with the reasoning first....
Secondly, cos u want the SMALLEST difference, so the 2nd digit of the first number MUST be zero and the 2nd digit of the second number MUST be nine...
Good...now u have made used of TWO digits "0" and "9"...so u are left with "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7" and "8".....
Cos you want the smallest difference and therefore you want to have the SMALLEST combination of number for the last 3 digits of the FIRST number...so it shall be 123....and the LARGEST combination of number for the last 3 digits of the SECOND number is 876...
Very good...you are left with the two digits "4" and "5"....applying the first reasoning that we have discussed earlier, you know that the first digit of the FIRST number is GREATER than the first digit of the SECOND number....
That's it!!....we have worked out the problem....not tat difficult afterall rite... =>
Next sum...this is a bit tricky but somehow I figure out how to solve it, even better than the solutions given by the book.... =P
Let me share the solution given by the book first...
First of all, I shall open up the sum first....LOOK:
(100 + 1) + (100 + 2) + (100 + 3) + ....... + (100 + 98) + (100 + 99) + (100 + 100)
and if you can see the pattern, we can further simplify it to:
(100 x 100) + (1 + 2 + 3 + .... + 98 + 99 + 100) cos "100" is repeated 100 times...
AND the book actually EXPECT you to do MENTAL calculation for 1 + 2 + 3 + .... until 100 lor!!!
Then add to 100 x 100 = 10000.....................tat is the answer given by the book...
BUT I got a better one...hehe....
See this pattern:
(100 + 1) + (100 + 2) + (100 + 3) + ... + (100 + 49) + (100 + 50) + (200 - 49) + (200 - 48) + (200 - 47) + ..... + (200 - 2) + (200 - 1) + 200.
And if u take note, you can see that there is 1-1, 2-2, 3-3 and therefore those numbers can be cancelled out cos they are equal to zero... =>
Therefore, it can be further simplified to:
(100 x 49) + (100 + 50) + (200 x 49) + 200.
4900 + 150 + 9800 + 200 = 15050
THAT'S IT!!......the sum is solved!!....my solution is easier right?....hehe... =P
Hope the mathematics dun bore you guys...hehe...it is nice learning new stuff... =>
Andy Liu once commented that I am so foolish to stop my studies cos he has never met anyone who love to study like me!!....LOLx....is that a compliment?!!....Hmmz...
You know why he said that....cos there is one time when we were chatting online, I told him that I am SO HAPPY that I did three tutorials for one of the modules in EEE...and commented that it is so SHIOK when I managed to solve them....
And I further commented that I am going to do more cos I got the kick to do so....and he said I crazy for loving to study.... =P
Aiya...to be thick-skinned, I always know I can study one...it is only a matter of interest and motivation only.... =p
I am given the genes of brain from my dad but just my lazy bones that is inherited from my mum that is always giving me the headache...LOLx....
Actually, I am supposed to plan outings with my friends before I go Cambodia but dun feel like doing so cos going out MEANS spending more $$.....
I would like to save these money for my trip....at least I will feel more secured with some money with me over there ma..... =>
Sorry friends....
Hmmz......sometimes it strikes me....that I do not have a bosom friend at all....
Although I have many many friends....but we are not as close compared to those friendships shown in TV/drama....
I feel ashamed when I dun know certain thing abt this friend or that friend....and still claim tat we are good friends.....
Dun know leh...I dun like ppl to "stick" to me all the time....I like it at times but not ALL the time....and dun like ppl to tell me what to do at times...STUBBORN angie...haha...
AND.....I dun like to feel betrayed....or hurt.....so I dun wanna take any more such risk....hmmz...should I put it this way?....frankly I dun know la....
I just do whatever I like.....follow my heart...and be happy...and I try not to hurt ppl around me and try to help my friends or family when needed....
That is the motto of my life ba....simple and less complicated... =>
Hmmz...but I notice a small change in me recently...I really become more positive now....in thinkings....when things are bad, I will think of the brighter side and try to solve things one by one...
If things cannot be solved, then I just leave it and try not to think of it all the time...and occupy myself with other things...and most of the time, my mood will be better after some time.....IT WORKS!!...
ONLY thing that I cannot change is my temper and stubborn-ness...
But I will minimize the hurt that I cause from my temper by keeping quiet and wait till I feel better then I talk....
Aiya...I already tried my best to control my temper....so ppl out there who kena my temper and hurting words, dun blame me ok... =>
Tata....back to my Mathematics assessment book and TV....
Funny...I took the flu medicine but I dun feel drowsy at all.....just a bit blur blur...
