chinchapo

haven't posted in almost a week...

went back to singapore for the weekend, well pretty much just a day...arrived late on friday night and left sunday afternoon...on saturday, went to a wedding and then spent the rest of the day at my aunty's...i did't know the national stadium was going down...would have seen the parade if i knew...did i miss anything good? i didn't know which one to support for the match..singapore or australia? in the end, singapore couldn't even score one against socceroos...what a let down for the final match at the national stadium....

don't have much to say...i'll leave you with this video i found...quite funny..



wait..random thought/question...

how IRRITATING is it when people say 'you know' like 50 TIMES when completing a sentence...especially the americans..."um, i went to the park and you know, there was this dog running around you know, and then it kept coming closer and closer you know, then it came up to me you know, and it bit me you know!" just get on with it! and it's even worse when you really don't know what it is they're talking about and they say 'you know'...maybe it's like a word that you've never heard before or something that you've never done before...so the person tries to explain it to you, and they keep saying 'you know', but in your head, you're like, 'NO, i don't know, because I'VE NEVER DONE IT BEFORE!' (but you don't say it out because you don't want to be rude)

at least Donald Rumsfeld made sense...

"Now what is the message there? The message is that there are known "knowns." There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns."
