Stuffages today.

No idea what to blog about, but will do so for the sake of doing so. Uh.

Ok, today the sec 4s had our homework periods spent in the hall, attending a supposedly inspiration talk by Principal Ong on how screwed the mid year exams results were. From the looks of it, maybe she was trying to persuade us to start our mugging for the prelims (and ultimately the O’levels), but at the end of the 1h 20mins, i think the message sent across was not “Start your revision now”, but rather “Judging from your mid-year results, y’all are goners”. And I’m not one bit inspired.

And today we received a good joke from the school. Or at least I’m very amused by it.

Ok… Where do I start…? Straight to the point? Alright then — Ripoff with the capital R.

$200 for a Pentium III 866MHz with 128MB RAM and integrated graphi… whaaaaat? And the 17-inch monitor + keyboard + mouse costs $20? Ok, I guess this thingy is for students who can’t afford to have a computer at home, so its a rather low-end 2nd hand computer blah blah blah… But I mean, seriously, a computer with these specifications can be bought for under $100, and here they are, cheating the money off poor lil’ kids. Not that I’m expecting anyone to be dumb enough to buy tho. =/
