Reluctant Agreement & The Petrosains Gal

Today, today, erm was the JPA Interview day ! Its at UPM, Serdang. So damn far away. Had to reach there by 8 am some more. Anyway, reached there at 7, thanks to my parent's kiasuness. My dad just dropped me there and left for work, picking me up later when I'm done. I just cannot understand why so many parents came and waited throughout the whole day with their babies. I mean, we attend this interview to prove ourselves capable of being independent minded. Look at the ASEAN selection test. They even bar parents from entering the building. That should be the way. What would this reflect upon the selectors ?

Anyway, us guys were forced to look ridiculous in long-sleeved shirts with ties. Madness. There was a briefing session which is then followed by the another ridiculous "essay". There's even spelling errors in the question paper. Praise God. He did a good job by ensuring my surname starts with a capital B. Since the interview order follows the alphabetical order, I was in the first group.

There were 7 of us in the group, and our topic is "Patriotism is lacking among Youths today, discuss". The selectors speaks damn f*cking terrible English, and yet insists on doing this in this language. Although none of us feels patriotic about this stupid country, we still have to deliver our "points" and "views" about promoting and enhancing patriotism. It was quite fun actually, since we all debated in very good English and those idiot selectors looks all dazed and confused. I made a few new friends, Danis, Bryan, and a gal which I cant pronounce her name because its just too hard to pronounce. Lol. I also saw Jun Yi, Nadesh and Malvin (nice hairstyle !).

So, anyway, luckily the whole thingy finsihed early for me (10.40am). I had to rush back to KL coz my 2 step-cousins from Penang, are coming to visit. So reached KL by 11.30, and I had to become a tour guide for a day.

So I took my cousins, aged (10 and 14) and my bro (12) to the KL Tower. I haven't been there since 1998, and not much has changed really. But the view was simply stunning. After that, we went to KLCC, had Nando's for lunch, and said "thank you" and "byee !" to every single waitress. Lol.

Then we went to Petrosains. My third time there, and first since 2001. We were quite unlucky, cuz there was a rombongan from a primary school at the same time we were there too. There was a family from Brazil too. And I guess they were pretty disgusted by the behaviour of those pesty primary kids who cut the line and even had to resort to scolding them. Embarassing.

I'm glad they (my cousins and bro) were enjoying themselves. But it was all kinda boring to me. That was until I met a lonely and very cute Petrosains facilitator. She's 19 and looks very much Chinese but she's a Malay. She's working part time there and obviously had a bad day at the office. After much (and successful) persuading, she managed to talk me (and my cousins and bro) into doing a science project. We were supposed to build a water wheel ( the ones you find in hydroelectric dams ). While my couzs and bro were busy building that stuff. She and I were happily chatting while mapping out a peta minda on the importance of hydroelectricity.
Sigh. What have I been doing ? I should visit Petrosains more frequently.

Why Do Beautiful Women Date Ugly Men?

By Curt Smith

It's a typical boys night out and on our way to the movie, we walked by a couple holding hands. The woman had what I like to call a "triple-take" face: I looked at her three times before I noticed her boyfriend was about to hit me over the head.

Luckily for me, I was surrounded by six friends and so the worst thing that happened was a "watch it buddy" killer stare.

This woman was hot! Not only did she have a tight dress to show off her killer curves, she also had the face of an angel. Then it dawned on me; the chunky Ron Jeremy [famous porn star] look-a-like boyfriend didn't really have the looks to merit such a beautiful girlfriend. What was so special about him?

I did not spend too much time thinking about it until I walked by another unusually mismatched couple. As my buddies and I entered the theatre, a two hundred-pound (I'm not talking about muscle), short and bald man (imagine Jason Alexander) walked by me with this beautiful woman that made Sofia Vergara look like a plain Jane.

Okay, now things are fishy. I saw too many inequitable couples within a span of twenty minutes. As far as I know, there is no shortage of good-looking men (G-men) nor is there a high supply of gorgeous women to go around for everyone. How can beautiful women date such ugly men (U-men)? Or better yet, how can U-men land such beautiful women?

False Assumptions

What can she possibly see in him? It must be the cash, and judging by her looks, he must have a lot it. This is probably the very first thought that goes through most G-men's minds.
This assumption cannot be further from the truth. True, having financial stability does help a man find a beautiful woman, but this is not the most important aspect. It's the combination of several traits that will help a man find the woman of his dreams.

As long as men keep reasoning that beautiful women date ugly or regular-looking men for their money, they will always miss out on opportunities to meet gorgeous women. Like my father used to say, "Son, assumptions are the mother of all screw ups. Never assume anything with women -- unless it's an acrobatic position."

If U-men don't need cash to bait beautiful women, then what's their secret weapon? What are these famous traits that will help a regular looking Joe like myself meet a girlfriend like Estella Warren?

The Ugly Secret

Over the years, U-men have developed two kinds of strategies to date beautiful women. The first strategy is called Scouting For Beauty, and involves looking for undiscovered, up-and-coming beautiful women.

The second strategy is called Impressing the Beauty, and involves impressing a beautiful woman who has no boyfriend and is sick of all the head games played by G-men. All she wants is an honest, trustworthy, fun man who can bring stability into her life.

Scouting for Beauty

Over the years, U-men have learned to adapt their dating skills. Just like a blind man learns to develop his other senses, a U-man relies less on his looks and learns to heighten his other traits.
The mistake most men make is to assume (mother of all screw ups) that every beautiful woman is born beautiful. In general, men have their radars fine-tuned for beautiful women dressed in sexy clothing as they ignore every other woman around them.

G-men assume that to date a beautiful woman, you have to look for a beautiful woman. This is where the U-man outwits the G-man.

While G-men are checking out the "all-star" women, who are already dating and usually spoiled with attention, the U-men are scouting for "rookies" or potential superstars. The U-man learns to spot potential beauty within a regular looking woman before G-men do.
These rookies are usually
good-looking women who don't know they have the potential to be hot. They have low self-esteem, lack personal style and lack sex appeal. The U-men recognize their potential and move in

Because these rookies don't have G-men courting them, they have low self-esteem and have no reason to fix themselves up, until the U-man comes along. The U-man compliments the rookie and makes her feel good about herself.

Eventually, the rookie girl develops a liking for the U-man. For this reason, she begins to dress and fix herself in a stylish manner. The U-man even accompanies the rookie shopping and suggests sexy clothing to the ready-to-impress girlfriend.

By the time the U-man is finished with her, he has produced a sophisticated, well-dressed woman who oozes sex appeal from every pore. While all the G-men are left wondering, Oh crap! How could I have missed her? Man, does she look good when she fixes herself up.
Scouting is good, but it's not enough. The U-man knows that he has to work hard to keep his new found *star*. The U-man now has to sign her to a long-term contract before she is swooped away by a smooth G-man.

Sign her to a long-term contract

The problem with a rookie is that once she realizes she's hot, and every man in the room is looking at her, she will slowly start to wonder if maybe she can get a G-man.
Before the makeover, she thought she had no chance of dating any G-man. But now that she's "New & Improved," she'll be tempted to test the waters.

Of course, the U-man knows this might happen, and therefore prepares to lock her in and position himself as an addiction to his girlfriend. This means that he will offer her everything a woman desires in a man -- minus the good looks. The U-man then becomes:

A Smooth Talker
He speaks with confidence and says the right words to make her feel good about herself. The U-man is capable of having an interesting and intelligent conversation.

Fun & Spontaneous
Most women love to have fun and live in the spur of the moment. They love to be in the company of men who can make them laugh and bring excitement to their lives.
Most G-men rely so heavily on their good looks alone to
impress women that they forget to make the date exciting. U-men know this and use it to their advantage by planning fun dates in advance such as weekend getaways, dinners at exotic restaurants, horseback riding, rafting, canoeing, mountain climbing, scuba diving, boating, cycling, and even dance lessons. The idea is to not fall victim to the routine trap.

A Real Man
A woman wants a man who can romance her and make her feel special; not only for her body, but also for her mind and soul. She knows that good lovers are hard to find. So if the U-man can make sensual love to her body and mind at the same time, he'll have her signed for life.

A Mature ManKeeping the relationship fun and exciting is very important. But a man has to realize that life is not all fun and games. A woman likes to know that she can count on her man to provide her with spiritual and financial stability.

Impressing beauty

A U-man does not always look for an undiscovered woman; there are cases where U-men approach and date gorgeous women. How do they do it? They don't assume (once again, mother of all screw ups) anything about beautiful women.

We've all heard of the expression, "poor little rich girl," where a rich woman cannot find true love because the men either want her money or are too intimidated by her rich blood. Well, the same applies to beautiful women.

Believe it or not, beautiful women have a hard time meeting men. The reason being that most men are intimidated by their looks. They think that because she looks good, she must be high maintenance, hard to get, already dating, and snobby.

The few men that do approach her are all players who like to play head games just to get into her panties and claim her as a trophy.

U-men that date beautiful women know this. They know that in most cases, beautiful women are single, fed up of head games and craving for a real man to approach them and desire them for who they are and not solely for their bodies.

The U-man must always be one step ahead of the game; he has nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Top 10 Things Women Love To Hear

Number 10
"How was your day?"

To her, it's the thought that counts. Asking about her day shows that you're receptive, interested and open to listening to her. You're giving her an outlet to vent and acting as her confidante. Sure, you might have to listen longer than you want to, but once she's done talking shop, she'll be talking about you.


Number 9
"I can't believe how sexy you look!"
This line is particularly effective in long-term relationships, as you're assuring your woman that she's still hot. In return, this makes her want to share her hotness with you. Any questions? Didn't think so.

Number 8
"How do you feel about [anything]?"
It's all about showing the compassionate side. Once she understands that you're devoting attention to her it will make all her feelings about you that much more intense. So, if you were just kind of attractive before, you'll become a stud in her eyes. If you were a friend before, now she'll want more. Get the picture?

Number 7
"You're prettier than your girlfriends."
Aside from making her feel aesthetically superior to other women, this little remark will make her cognizant of how much you value her. She'll also feel less threatened by her friends when they are around you. She'll feel good about herself and consequently will want to reward your good taste. There is a potential flip side, however: the jealous partner may take this only as evidence that you're checking out her friends.

Number 6
"You're really smart."
First off, she'll appreciate that you are capable of thinking above the waistline. Women love a cordial man, and there's no better way for you to show off your gentlemanly qualities than to praise and distinguish her smarts.

Number 5
"You're great in bed." Praising her performance indicates that for you, sex isn't just about getting your rocks off. You appreciate every aspect of the experience itself, particularly the extra efforts she puts towards it.

Number 4
"I want to spend my life with you."
All women love to hear a formal expression of enduring commitment from their man. Brother, to her, you'll practically receive a permanent halo after this.

Number 3
"You're my best friend."
These words change you from being just the guy she's doing to the guy she is doing things with, too. It rockets you to the top of the suitor list because you've openly declared the F-word: friendship.

Number 2
"You'll make a great mother."
Why it makes you look good: Indirectly, you just confirmed to your woman that you're thinking about making babies with her. Obviously, this is great music to her ears. From this point onwards, she'll be ever more receptive to your advances.

Number 1
"You make my life complete."
This basically says that you need her in your life, and that you couldn't live without her. Women fall head over heels for this kind of stuff.

Too Rusty

I guess its inevitable, that after 5 months without studying, my sharpness and focus will definately bound to be not 100% .

But I still had an interesting time at the Garden International School. Met some of my old friends, Chan Kin Wong, Kenson, Chee Guan, and also saw Malvin, Amos, Yip Wai and a girl which I guess her name's Jade. Lots and lotsa people were there. Most of the guys look smart, but the girls there were just a dream to watch. Lol. Well at least some of them were. There were 10 classes, with each class around 30 students. 30 x 10 = ?

Obviously, an International School is miles apart from a stupid local school. The whole class room is fully carperted and air conditioned. How nice...its like studying in paradise. Haha.

I was in Class 6. We had a briefing first together with classes 5,6,7,8,9,10 while classes 1,2,3,4 took their IQ test. The senior officer from the MOE, (Miss Ong) didnt mince her words when told what is expected of us IF we are lucky enough to be accepted for the scholarship.

The IQ test was kinda easy at first, and it got really hard at the last 10 questions. Its not really like the ordinary IQ test where you can take on the internet. But its like a test where you have to use your mind to complete the sequence of super weird pictures.

I also met 2 new friends, a state cricketeer from N.Sembilan and another Chindian from Perak. Finally, I'm in a room where if people ask me
"How many A's you scored ?"
"10...you ?"
"11"
Lol.
(refer the post on March 31)

After the IQ test is done, there's about 30 mins before the Maths test. Unlike the scene before exams in schools, no one here was studying at all. Everyone here was busy chit-chatting and do not even give a damn about the Maths test. Whether they were confident or not, I don't really know, but the test was hard. The syllabus there is only slightly different from the one here, but its more IQ oriented. I managed to fill in 19 out of 23 answers, which is not really poor, I guess, but still I was a little dissappointed.

Then came lunch. An international school but the standard of the food was far from international. A tiny plate of fried rice which tastes bad but still amazingly expensive.

After lunch came English. Again, the standard of the Singapore syllabus is slightly higher than the Malaysian one. One comprehension passage with 10 questions (50 marks) and 1 essay question (50 marks).

I had little problem with English coz I have been writing in this blog for the past few months. But for the Maths, even if I had studied all the formulas ( which I didnt ), I would still lack the sharpness needed to answer 23 questions in 2 hours.

The results will be out by the first week of May. Although I'm not really THAT confident, I still really hope I do get this scholarship. But so does the remaining 299 students who came here today.

ASEAN Scholarship Test !

Wow ! Just yesterday I was pleading for someone or something to sponsor me, and here today the Ministry of Education Singapore sent me this amazing fax !

Well not so amazing really, the fax is actually an invitation for me to participate in their 'selection test' next Saturday. This test which is 9 HOURS ! consists of 3 subjects ; General Abilities, English and Mathematics (they did mention to bring the scientific calculator) so it must be something like Add Maths. Which is bad news actually, since I've not touched the textbook for like 5 months ! And every formulae that was in my brain has now virtually left it.

Anyway, I did mentioned earlier that I only stand a 0.01% chance of even getting invited to the test, let alone pass it. So I guess I should be extremely happy, even if I don't pass. Who knows ? I might meet a pretty gal or something...


SO THE CREAM OF MALAYSIAN 18 YEAR OLDS WILL BE ON SHOW NEXT SATURDAY !


At least all except for those who haven't already went for earlier intake


all but for those who didn't apply for this


and all who the scholarship officials actually think IS smart


and all except those who already got other scholarships and those who didn't knew about the existance of this one.
