Yup. It means what it means. As a courtesy and a token of my appreciation, I want you to be informed. You may not be many, but you mean something to me. Thanks for stopping by but I hope this will be your last. Adieu!

As far as PBL goes, I like it. It's nice to revise and discuss about actual cases. As for PBL mates, well just hope that you get lucky, not to get stuck with an obnoxious-narcissistic-I-know-all guy. Thank God I'm not, I'm just imagining the possibilities.

If you go out there, metaphorically speaking, you'll find thousands of videos, blogs, and forums mocking the new iPad. One of my favourite joke is by Seth Meyers on SNL. "Apple said that, Monday, they sold more than 300,000 iPads on the first day of its launch, ushering a new era of people buying things in order to find out what they are." And of course, if you're a fan of madtv, I'm sure you've seen the 'iPad' they had quite some time ago. The funny thing about that skid is Apple iPad is not even out yet. Can't believe that of all those  geeks working with apple, none came across the video that have at least 2 million hits on youtube.

So, jokes. Hmm... My brief history of jokes. Like many other kids I also have my fair share of being made fun of. I guess this has somehow shaped my views on jokes. And of course since the birth of internet, viral videos has massively contributed as well.

I remember someone from my gaming network, brought up the term 'inside joke'. He said, 'aren't they all are?' Got me thinking since. Relatively, every joke is an inside joke. You need at least two people to agree that a joke is funny, a joke, if not, it will be just a weird or a lame story that will make people tell you to stop talking about it. So, the two people makes up for the 'inside' part. Their camaraderie or brotherhood formed upon the acknowledgement of a funny statement or remark... I have just lost my train of thoughts. I'm gonna leave that one there.

So, I guess (I've used the words 'I guess' too many times. By now YOU should know whatever I'm saying is just fictional and don't even make sense. So go have your philosophical and thoughts argument somewhere else cos I'm not gonna justify any of this or use the words 'I guess' any more. Makes me look like I have a spine of a gummy bear.) Wow, talk about digressing.

Among many other guilty pleasures that I subscribe to, jokes are one of them. Of course for a joke to fall under the category of 'guilty pleasure' there are certain criteria that they have to fulfil. Although I will not describe these criteria as one's moral compass is different from the other thus making it pointless to define my ideas of guilty pleasure.

I write a lot of 'unimportant' thing here (I assume that people understand that titles or headings aren't just headings and titles) cos I need to let off steam once in a while. One of the stuff that I like to let off here are funny things. Things that I found funny. (Redundant much?) (I need to stress the 'I' on that last phrase) Thoughts, observations, fantasies, whatever. Laughter is the best medicine right?

One thing I learn from jokes is to look things from different perspectives. To be open minded. Let loose. Chillax. Jokes that I like require the least amount of ability to read between the lines, grasp irony, and understand metaphors. Not much intelligence needed. Same goes with the stuff here. I often imagine talking to a stranger and having a laugh when I write these posts. I also learn to not always take things too personally. Well, I'm good in theory, not so much in practice.

Bottom line? Stop reading and go somewhere else if you're still asking this question. Like many ghost movies, thriller, gore, action, people watch it because they want what the movie offers, footage of a girl's room while she sleeps or maybe Bruce Willis fighting a tank. Not life lessons given by zombies. :p

A quick recap.

The weekend is a bit rough. Cough made me sound a bit different, and almost killed me. A little sleep deprived and just had 8 sneezes in one sitting. (You won't find this interesting when you've seen a guy did almost 20 in one sitting. A friend back in school. His normal sneezes are around 4, 5.)

Went out for a thriller, Buried. The acting was good, the premise was fresh but the substance was just null. You get anxious at times but there's nothing much to take home. I would call it a documentary if it does. I get accused of being bias. Beats me if I know why. My thought, it's a hit and miss. It's either you like it, or hate it.

I came across this thought. Save the planet. If you're in uk, in fact, even if you're not, I'm sure you've heard of the term 'recycle' or 'recycling' or 'carbon footprint' (I'm not sure if I've ever heard of carbon footstep, until recently). So if you heard any activist shouting save our planet, you pretty much will have the same picture in your mind of what they meant.

What intrigued me was, do we really need to save the planet. In fact can we really save our planet? I mean, what are we to this big lump of mass? We're just like staphylococcus on the skin of someone who has never bothered to shower. The earth has been here for millions or maybe even trillions of years before any of us were born. And it probably has been through more s#itty organisms that us (And by s#itty I mean ungrateful and disrespectful toward the earth and selfish, at least some of us). I don't mean to pull the holier-than-thou crap (I can't think of why I could or would), I'm merely describing an observation.

That being said, I'm sure earth can take care of itself. Maybe that's why it had ice age or meteor causing all those crap before. Maybe the dinosaur was being all "fruitful and multiplying" on it's face, it decided to just wipe them out. And in our case, maybe the earth just wanted to see iPhone 4. So it decided to keep us for a few centuries, even though we have been effing (If you don't get the reference to Woody Allen's quote above) around for quite a while now, until steve jobs finally create one, and it's time to call for another 'apocalypse'.

I don't know what's the message behind this (If there is any to begin with). The very least I can say is let's change the chant to 'Save yourself', they might actually care. (Studies show that people react more positively to request when 'you' is used)

Im blogging with my iPhone. How cool is that? Haha.

Anyway, the time window I have now is not enough for me to review a lecture cos it's time consuming to walk to the library (I'm just lazy to move my ass from thus common room). So i decided to blog. I'm already on the net anyway.

One train of thought that stood out today. Half way through the epidemiology lecture I just had this morning, I thought, 'I don't get enough sun here'. Apart from the cold climate and clothing, there is just not enough sunlight bathing this land of William Wallace (go watch Braveheart if you don't get that reference. Yes, you.) So vitamin D came to mind and I thought I'll do some reading on vit D supplement (dark skinned people are prone to developing rickettsia when they don't produce or get enough vit D. I haven't searched this yet but my tutor in PBL mentioned it. Probably worth mentioning.) Oh that actually what I wanted to talk about. In PBL, vit D was mentioned along with scottish weather.

That didn't sound exciting. Meh.

I guess my curiousity towards people will never die. Sometimes my method might be downright cold and manipulative. But who knows? Maybe one day I will publish a paper that can cure some of our society's illness. Maybe not anything like cancer but it might reduce the prevalance of the likes of narcissism and as such (I used the word 'prevelance' and actually know what it means. I feel so smart now haha. Ok maybe not so much).

I gotta stop now cos it seems the longer I type the more annoying this becomes (typing on small screen. You should already know that I'm annoying. So I don't need to mention that)

p/s: I don't really mean all those I posted before. Well at least part of me don't. It was my alter ego. He hijacked my body and posted those. I do like bubbly music. And I guess he thinks he can get girls by being such a jerk.

I can't believe with all the time, the place, the internet speed, I still am blogging in the uni lab. Sheesh.

I have mixed feelings about this blog. Everytime I think about it, it's sad that I need a blog to express myself. Does this mean I don't have enough friends? T.T I don't blame them. I'm not that cool anyway. On the bright side, I often feel that at least I have someone to say stuff to, even it means some stranger who accidentally clicked my page because they googled 'clearing throat sound'. Oh wait, that is actually quite sad too. I'm depressed now -_-''

I hate bubbly songs. They make me feel bubbly. Let me just stop you there. DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT imagine me being bubbly. I will not be responsible if you can't sleep at night after this. I mean, I've lived for at least 21 years (I'm not 22 yet ;)) and the last time I remember me being bubbly is like never. So do yourself and me a favor don't imagine me being bubbly please.

Anyway, recently, thank to tessa (don't google her name, she's nobody) I found this band called the hush sound. I've never heard of them before maybe you have but whatever. I'm not claiming like I discovered them or anything, like some people like to do. meh.

Back to the bubbly bit. Yeah, I mean, you know me right? I'm all cool and stuff. So obviously I don't roll with bubbly. I mean duh? Now I've been listening to their music all day I actually feel like doing good things to other people. Argh!! It is just not right!

Ok, I have run out of things to write. I should have drew a mind map before I started writing. It would have probably helped me. But it's too late now. I'm just gonna waste your time by making you read this. Sorry.

Oh no! I said sorry! Man I should really stop listening to bubbly music and being all nice and stuff *anrgy face*
