NSpay, smoke & quiz

recieved a sms this morning saying that i will be recieving my NS pay. i was like eh? the only thing remotely close to what i did for my NSmen status recently was to take my IPPT. and wow! for that short moment there i was paid a wordly ransom of...................$9! hahahahaha.

after newspaper reports yesterday of ENV's clampdown on smokers at bus interchanges, suddenly the straggling few smokers still testing the system at boon lay interchange have disappeared. at last! no need to walk through a curtain of smoke each time i walk from the mrt station to the 179 berth. i wish the government would ban cigarrettes as soon as possible. if bahrain (pronounced as BAH!-rain, empasis on the h sound, not Baa-rain, as in baa baa black sheep) can do it, why not us. i hate having to walk through a second cloud of smoke everyday when i walk from the bustop in school to LT1. that area is not a smoking corner of the canteen!

got a quiz tomorrow. haiz. will be staying late in school today to study for it. i know if i go home, i will only stagnate. this is the only way i will ever put some study in. fluids engineering - water bang here bang there, sound goes boom boom that one. haha!
