"Producks"

If you ever noticed, there's alot of local product's brand names that sounds so spoofing to the famous, giant brands.

For example, in the hypermarket, we got Cream-O that looks alot like Oreo based on their packaging and also the look of the cookie itself.






There's also ChipsPlus & ChipsMore.



There's also Asadi that sounds alot like Adidas, which to add the "unoriginality" of that, if you compare these 2 logos by the respect of their fonts,




It gives me an impression that these products are trying to be as successful as those well-known brands. But I feel that's not the right way cuz it sound n look so....unoriginal.

But lastly, I noticed this.



Straight away we know it rhymes with Oral-B, but I feel it sounds kinda weird...


Anyway, this post are just thought from random and there's nothing much to emphasize on them. Just touch n go. And this post may be lame, I know. And it's actually a waaay back post...back to a few weeks ago cuz I don't have enough resources to post them.

Goodbye.

P/S: for those names who're mentioned on top, it's not a must to do this.

"Bad Boys" VS "Mr Nice Guys"

There's a saying goes "Nice guys finish last". Sometimes I wonder if this quotation is really true. Apparently it is. I find this topic as very interesting actually.

"[According to McDaniel (2005), popular culture and dating advice "suggest that women claim they want a 'nice guy' because they believe that that is what is expected of them when, in reality, they want the so-called 'challenge' that comes with dating a not-so-nice guy."]"

-Extracted from Wikipedia.

The problem with being a "nice guy" is that, generally, woman don't find them attractive. This is especially they're at this age around 17, 18, 19, 20 and the early 20s.

At this age, do you think girls prefer "bad boys" who are confident, attractive, sexy, playful, talkative, funny and exciting rather than "nice guys" who are relatively shy, less talkative, doesn't joke much and more to a caring, sensitve and attentive kind?

In other words, those "bad boys" are more flirtatious and more aggressive towards their converations and interactions with girls, compared to the opposite party who're more conservative and more respectful towards girls.

Personally, I would say that the former wins- if the girls are looking more for a short term, "click straight away" kind of relationship.

There's a quotation cited as "girls just wanna have fun". Yeah, I mean, at this age, 18-19 years, which girl doesn't want to be constantly entertained by a humorous and funny boyfriend?

Another line from Wikipedia,
"Some women offered flattering interpretations of the nice guy, characterizing him as committed, caring, and respectful of women. The young immature majority, however, emphasized more negative aspects, considering the nice guy to be boring, lacking confidence, and unattractive."

It kinda sums up that these "bad boys" are more looking forward to short-term relationship without really thinking about their future, whereas the "nice guys" tends to be more loyal, more committed and would do his best to sustain a long term relationship.

Ironic to say "nice guys finish last", however, they don't always lose. At the end of the day, in the end, if both opposing guys are battling for a long term relationship, the "nice guys" tend to survive it better based on their general properties.

I'm not sure how true it is. However, statistically, sadly, AT THIS AGE, it's true that girls do prefer the "bad boys". I'm pretty sure some of you might disagree though, and this post might be controversial. You can argue all you like. However, these are facts. Nothing much to deny that. For me, personally, I'm [starting to] feel it's true.

Take note that I'm not pointing this to anyone or myself. This is just a general post without criticizing anyone, anyhow. However, if you would ask me whether I'm categorized as a "bad boy" or a "nice guy", judging by the traits and properties of both parties, I feel I'm more to the latter one.


...And I'm quite sure some of you might've heard people say "That's it! No more Mr Nice Guy!" because they're too frustrated by the way they're being treated.




For me, I would NOT say that...yet. (Not for now, though.)

Three-Sum

First of all I'm sorry for the voidness of updates in these few days. Well, not like I don't wanna update, it's just that the stupid DSL kept blinking. Really having lousy connections in these 2 days. And I'm thankful that at least it's just started to function more stabily now.

Anyway, in this post I'll touch about what happened in the previous days, impressions of me being upset about certain issues, and focus ahead of the upcoming weeks.


Last few days had been average. Even today actually, is arguably the worst.
The weekend is dull and boring. Arguably due to the crappy internet connection. Besides, I'm not like a person who loves watching TV and can go on all day sitting on the couch staring the box. Astro is really kinda shitty on EVERY weekends, especially during the afternoon. I don't know bout you guys la, but all of those programmes doesn't suit me at all. Premier movies at night are also dumby. HBO premiered Georgia Rule on Sunday- starred by Lindsay Lohan. I hate her, really.
Also, it's very routine and gloomy due to the rainy days and it can only be summarised by a word- boring.

Yesterday is Monday. There's nothing much to talk bout yesterday really, as my class finished on 11. I feel it's too early. Today finished at 12. Tomorrow suddenly jumps to 4pm. Lousy schedule i feel. Anyway, back to today, I'm late for 8am Physics class. Reached DK only 1/2 an hour later. Not that I intended to be late, but my car pool friend is late. Other than that I got nothing else to comment on that.

About impressions that I'm upset with what happened regarding the 'girl' I mentioned about in the previous 2 posts, I would say that it doesn't affect me at all- in any way. There's no such thing whereby I have impressions of being jealous or wat, not at all. It's just a touch-n-go comment on them, nothing more than that. So Cal, don't misunderstood okay... I'm perfectly fine.

Lastly, the final test will be on from 11 to 14/15 I think. It's not a big test or wat, nothing too serious about that. However, If I DO fail, that will be a problem especially when it comes to the Parents-Lecturers Day. The main cause for concern is Maths. A MAJOR concern. I also don't know how I'm gonna actually sit there alone and do it.

Nonetheless, at least the lecturer, Miss Melissa gave tips today. So that would be a cause for optimism. Other than that, I feel I can only start concentrating seriously on Chemistry & Physics only a week before the test, as it looks like I don't have the "exam pressure" yet.


Anway, sorry if this post bores you, as that's how the nature my life is now in these few days.

Bye and take good care of yourself =).

Happy Birthday Brigette!

This is what you get when you skip tutorial classes at TAR College.

(Click for clearer view)

They send the letters directly to your house, with either your father/mother's name on it. Apparently, if you miss more than 1 tutorial class in a month, you're gonna get it.
The moral of the story: Don't skip more than once. One per month is OK.

The reason why I missed those classes is that, it's on Wednesday, the day I got 1 Chemistry tutorial, 2 General Paper tutorials, 1 Maths Applied lecture, 1 Physics tutorial and finally 1 Maths Applied tutorial. Basically all the tutorials crammed up in a day in which the Maths Applied tutorial is on 3-4pm.

By that time, it's already tiring + lose concentration + I don't do Maths homework + I hate maths + I have to walk to LRT station to go KL Central, change to KTM, wait for the train, then travel to Segambut where finally I have to walk another 25 mins to reach home. That adds up to about 1 hour 15 mins from the train at LRT station. Very sien 1 okayyy....... understand abit laa...

But anyway I don't plan to skip anymore lah, as the test will commence in 3 weeks time, plus at least Miss Evelyn is one of the better looking lecturers at TARC.

To other things, few are acknowledged that the other day, I made a card to someone for her birthday. Her name is Brigette. It's actually my first time making a card for someone on the person's birthday. It took quite much longer than I expected to complete it. I bought those papers in the evening, and started work at around 9.30pm. The inside of the card itself it took very long. By the time wanted to do the cover of the card, before I knew it, it's already 1am.

Progress at 12:04am, 15 Oct 08, her birthdate.

Thankfully, for the very first time, my class on Wednesday this week started on 11am, unlike the other 8am classes. So I woke up at 7.30am, and continued doing it and at last it's done. Sorry lah I didn't manage to take pictures of the end product of the card because I didn't thought of it + I don't have time for it. In the end I'm fairly happy with the card, and I really hope she'll like it anyway.


Nonetheless, I feel it's a hard work paid off. After all, why not?
