Check This Out!

Check this little test out for all those guys who think that they are somehow a good tactitian when fighting a war.
This is the result for me.

Scipio
You scored 55 Wisdom, 73 Tactics, 65 Guts, and 42 Ruthlessness!

You're most simillar to Scipio in the fact that you're smart and
ruthless. Scipio beat Hannibal by luring him back from Western Europe
(where he was crushing legion after legion of Roman soldiers trying to
gain support from local tribes) by laying seige to his home country of
Carthage. Hannibal returned to defend his home and was defeated at the
Battle of Zama. Ruthless, but it worked.

Scipio was the conqueror of Hannibal in the Punic Wars. He was the
son of Publius Cornelius Scipio, and from a very early age he
considered himself to have divine inspiration. He was with his father
at the Ticino (218), and he survived Cannae (216). The young Scipio was
elected (c.211) to the proconsulship in Spain. He conquered New
Carthage (Cartagena) almost at once (209) and used the city as his own
base; within several years he had conquered Spain. As consul in 205,
Scipio wanted to invade Africa, but his jealous enemies in the senate
granted him permission to go only as far as Sicily and gave him no
army. He trained a volunteer army in Sicily. In 204 he received
permission to go to Africa, where he joined his allies the Numidians
and fought with success against the Carthaginians. In 202, Hannibal
crossed to Africa and tried to make peace, but Scipio's demands were so
extreme that war resulted; Scipio defeated Hannibal at Zama (202),
returned home in triumph, and retired from public life. He was named
Africanus after the country he conquered. His pride aggravated the
hatred of his enemies, especially Cato the Elder , who accused the
Scipio family of receiving bribes in the campaign against Antiochus III
in which Scipio had accompanied (190) his brother. It was only through
the influence of his son-in-law, Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus, that
Scipio was saved from ruin. He retired into the country and ordered
that his body might not be buried in his ungrateful city. Later he
revealed his great magnanimity by his attempt to prevent the ruin of
the exiled Hannibal by Rome.

Short Note to all My Radio Acad classmates!!

This is not really a post. Is jst a short note of thanx to some ppl.

" This short entry in my blog actually goes out to all my classmates of the 13th Intake of Radio Academy. "

Though the times we spent together is only a short 5 days but to each and everyone of us, we all know that the 5 days actually means alot to each. From the 1st day we started the course with poor Aloysius trying to break the ice till the day before we record our own show, each of us knows that everyone of that class is actually a very fun person. Yes, we did have fun when Mark was trying to make us do those exercise in which some of us finds it uncomfortable or even weird but still did it. We only opened up on the 4th day of the course just as we prepare to record our own shows. Everyone is wishing each other all the best and deep in our hearts prayed that no one will make a blooper on their recording. We all know thats highly unlikely cos we are doing it for the 1st time and even know that by heart. Though we had the chance to proceed home after our recordings, we still stayed behind to wait for each other and leave as a class. Personally, this action alone has already shown that each of us really are attached to each other even though we don't say it out. On the last day, while listening to each others recordings, we laughed and smiled when each group's recording was played.
When its time to really go, I believe that in everyone's heart, we feel the sadness and pain of going our separate ways and really wished that time would have stood still forever. We know that in this world, there is no such thing as a party which goes on forever. Somehow it will need to end. To my wonderful classmates, missing each other is a wonderful thing for it goes to show that we had our good times together till the extend that we will always think back of it and miss it.

So, all I can say in this entry is, from the deepest of my heart, ' I miss you all & I love you all! '
Take Care, Stay Safe and Be Happy!
For those who are studying, Study Hard but Play Harder!
For those like me, working, Work Hard but Play Even Harder!
Life is short so enjoy it to the most!

Feeling the Blues Again???

Aiyoh! Here it comes again. Looks like I'm gonna start bitching on how the week went!

Basically, from monday till thurs, the life I've had was kinda sucky! (As usual). Monday was mostly spent at home after finishing the nite duty from Sun. But becos of some stupid sickness bug, me started to develop sore-throat and have difficulty talking. Some more on tues, I have to start work at 8am but thankfully its only until 4pm. Its already hell when time passed from 8 to 12pm on tues cos the ringing of phones really started to make me lose it to some extend. Have to tahan some more but luck was abit smiling on me. Got to teach a new guy who's in to replace one of the staff who left for a better job! (Why I no luck one??!!!) Well, at least this new guy is kinda easy to teach.

Thought that tues was bad. When it came to wed, I suddenly remembered that one of my team-mates is on leave!! NB!!!! I was so called on duty alone from 8 to 11pm though there is the new guy but he's not yet ready to answer calls. Then at 9am, kana this cust who is facing some problems and I discovered that one of my colleagues actually gave him the 'wrong' information. KNNB!!!! Wah lao! Have to pacify him for a while and have to do this & that before his anger subside. Already spoil my day liao even before I can really get into the correct mood. No choice. Then all the calls keep coming & coming until lim peh really so frustrated that I jst set my desk phone to away mode and do the cases on hand. Talk about poor service! C'mon man!! 1 man with a pair of hands, pair of ears and 1 brain! How much can he do?? At least after 11pm got my other colleague to support me, things became more manageable. Voice haven't recover yet have to talk so much. Some more coughing so bad. Sigh! Looks like I'm feeling the blues once again.

Now, from yesterday to today 8am, me again doing the nite duty. So far things still ok. Jst that got 1 stupid caller who left me a no to call which lead to a dead end (No not in use). Like that how to get things done?? Nvm liao. All I have to do is to tahan till 8am and can jst leave the horrible office. Hmm... Maybe later tonite go have a wild time chionging! Long long time since I last went to disco. Last one I went was.... I think, DBL O. Maybe can go there and get to know more frens!
Hopefully can get some photos to show also.
Ok then. This is the Crazy Lone Ranger here, signing off! Till next time!

Another Week is Beginning

You're tuning in to the only station that plays you the......

Okok! Yes, I know. Radio Academy is over so I should stop all the nonsense like I'm being 'On Air'. Well, ok I will stop it least I lose all of you.
Hmm... Where was I. Oh, ok. Its been really eventful and enjoyable week for me but its already coming to the end of the week. The following week will be kinda like old times again. "Phone rings, answer it, jot down details, troubleshoot, end call". Crap man! Being in customer service line is really sux. But, I will always remember those words from my wonderful lecturer, Aloysius Tan.
" No doubt you go to work day in day out and doing the same old stuff again and again. But, are you able to perform your job with the same outstanding dedication like when you 1st started? "
When I think back to what he said, I somehow feel that his words is really making some sense in certain ways. Cos as I'm in the service line, I should be doing my best everyday whether I'm happy or sad or angry cos customers can hear my emotions from my voice even though they don't see me face to face.
Sigh... Its already the month of November. Soon, its gonna turn into December and then 2005 will end. Whether it end in a sore note or a good note for me, no one can predict it. But I do hope that with some motivation and goals which I've set for myself, I can achieve something good, regardless whether is big or small. A small achievement is the 1st step towards better things to come.
Ok. Me signing off from here. Take Care and stay safe.

The End of 13th Radio Academy

*Sob Sob* Yesterday was the last day of the 13th Radio Academy. Very sad cos the whole class was jst beginning to know each other more and then its time to go our seperate ways and back to our daily boring life. Well, as the saying goes: "Time flies when you are enjoying yourselves!" How to not agree with this saying, rite or not?
Anyway, took quite a few pix with the class after we ended the course. I feel tat this class really is a great happening group. Is jst tat we took kinda too long, like wat Aloysius Tan said, to really open up. No matter. We had fun together and also get to know each other alittle more. Also, we get to record our own shows and when Aloysius went through every group's recording, we really have a great laugh cos some how, we sounded very nervous and also funny on the bloobers we made. I think back on my recording and also had a great laugh cos its really stupid. I included some pix which I took during the course.

If not, ppl will say lim peh bo sim and forget bout the friendship.
