Examination period in progress, please do not disturb, I am currently studying, playing video games and watching the world cup. I am busy, very busy. Not only do I have to juggle with schoolwork, I’ve to plan my time so as to fit in as much play time and watching time as possible. Thank god the world cup isn’t next year; else I’ll probably not have a future.  With that said, this current week and the next week are filled with different subjects’ individual examinations. Actually, I’ve already completed all except one of my six subjects. That also explains the inactivity of the site. Yes, I’ve been studying, and playing. Continue reading

Your Moola Has Finally Arrived
It has been one to two months since I requested for the cashout in Nuffnang after meeting their cashout requirements. Not a lot of money but it certainly took a long long while. Apparently one of their staff contacted me a week before I receive the cheque to explain the long delay. Apparently (yet again), it seems as though the person in-charge of signing cheques went overseas for the past month thus the delay. However the problem is why the wait till he is back before sending me the email to inform me about the delay? That I have no idea, busy isn’t a reason or a valid excuse. Continue reading

Research has shown otherwise. Monetary benefits can only go so far and only works for jobs that are simple and direct. With more thinking and creativity involved, there are other factors that motivates one.

Almost Time For a Break
The semester is about to end. “Holidays†are fast approaching. I need this break real soon. The pace of my IB School life suddenly shot up within the past 2 weeks or so. Assignments, important projects and internal assessments for several subjects came all at the same time. It was all party at first and the chaos at which these 2 weeks totally caught me off guard. I’m glad that it is slowly decreasing in pace and things seem to go a little lighter yet again. Continue reading
WoW Trip Cambodia 2010
I just came back from my WoW trip at Cambodia two days ago. WoW stands for Window on the World and not World of Warcraft. Basically its purpose is to allow students to grow in many ways for example character values such as perseverance and commitment through undertaking new challenges etc. It simply follows the CAS objectives (something like community involvement programme CIP etc) and wants student to learn and build themselves up. The trip was fun and definitely worthwhile, bringing back some unforgettable memories. Continue reading

I just received my first ever google adsense cheque! Woohoo! I’m so proud of myself. Although it took 3 years to do so, I mean it is at least something right? Haha now I can use some of my money to buy stuff I want like a new set of speakers. Anyways will be away the whole of next week due to some overseas trip to Cambodia with the school. Continue reading
Failure Feeling Yet Again
Just finished my math test two days ago and guess what, I think I did really badly. It is the same feeling as say my Secondary 2 and 3 years before I had some emergency tuition to help pull my socks up. Maybe I do need to pay some money to get myself disciplined to start working. Maybe I don’t, I really don’t know. It is the failure feeling yet again and I think I might just get it engraved even deeper within me tomorrow as I will be taking the English test. Continue reading
