As simple as ABC:
1) Set cheem questions. Students who do not know what the heck is the questions or simply could not understand can kon ka kiao liao. Students who do not even prepared by studying for the test will see an instant result. They will fail the paper. However, students who understand the questions is immune to this skills. They won't die.
2) Hold the students appetite when the results for the test is out. Make them wait and wait and wait, and they will die. But somehow, this is not effective for most students. Students who do not want to fail and feels that they don't do well ( or what we call No Failing but Don't Think Can Do Well aka NFDTCDW) will have an instant effect. The rest? Those who think they will fail, they fail. Those who think they can pass but fail, die. Those who think they will fail but pass, pass. Those who pass, pass.
This is not a medicine, neither it is a magic potion for black magic. This is psychological tactics.
And this can be applied on my PCC Paper today: Simply wondering what is the questions talking about. Very simple: my face turns green when i saw the questions. OMG, how to do the questions? Cos it was so many weeks ago since we attended PCC lectures, where i had simply deleted the file of answering the questions to the problems after the HR paper. Yes, i had deleted so many things, such as what to do for the corp comm projets and so on. And in the end, i simply forgotten the HRIS 4 hr lab session. : (
And this applies to Part 1.
Part 2? I just simply told Mr Nah that i feel that i will fail the paper when i had lunch with him in biz park at 11am (an hour later, our Charles Ma was in biz park and he was one of the contestant for the best looking Eng guys. Hey Charles, sorry huh, i ws with Mr Nah and my members discussing our next projects.) And he told me that there are people who bound to fail, but not to worry too much lah.
12pm is the time where Charles/I knows the results. Charles? I don't know. Me? Mr Nah asked whether if i am at ups and downs. (Ups means pass, downs means fail) And i placed my bets on downs, that i bound to fail for sure.
A very wrong move that i make.
Up. I scored 23/30.
Mai da kai xiao, mai xiao kai da. (Buy big open small, buy small open big. This is a Chinese term which means one was in back luck, where things doesn't goes what he wants. )
OK, i pass the test, but i lost all the '$$$' on the bet. Another risky bet tomorrow: French paper.
And after waiting for a month and so, FIRST Feb edition is finally out. Really quite fed up that they are always late at times. And here comes the sneak peak of upcoming movie posters:
Danny the Dog aka Unleashed in Internnational title. In case you missed my blog yesterday due to some technical problem, this is the summary of what has happened: Danny the Dog is Jet Li's return to Hollywood after Cradle 2 the Grave with DMX 2 yrs ago. The posters for Unleashed has been criticised by the Chinese that a Chinese dignity has been insulted by Americans, where the poster features Li being treated like a dog and how he fights back. And i was there to express my unhappiness that Li was treated like a dog, and not only my idol has been insulted, but the Chinese dignity has been badly bruised. However, Danny the Dog's posters seems to be few thousand times better. Featuring Jet with Morgan Freeman and Bob Hoskins in a Tarantino style poster. Think Reservoir Dogs with a Chinese, an American African and a American, with the background was in pale yellow, and looks like any other old posters that has been crumpled. In short, think the combination of Resevoir Dogs and Pulp Fictions. The plot? Jet plays Danny, a Chinese who was kidnapped and trained as a underground fighter for his boss (Hoskins), with basic human rights totally ripped off: no education, eats like a dog, lives like a dog. When his carries some secrets the gang do not want to spread off and his boss goes blind after an accident, Danny runs away. He was rescued by Sam (Freeman in his Ray Charles look), a blind pianist, who teaches him with values of life, and teaches Danny how to lve like a human being. The gang now wants Danny dead, and he must find ways to protect Sam and Victoria, his granddaughter, and at the same time, to get back his dignity.
War of the Worlds: Standing beside Danny the Dog (and opens much much more later than Danny the Dog. While Danny gets back his dignity on 8th Apr in US (S'pore's schedule is yet to be confirmed), the outer invaders invades theatres on late May in US , and S'pore faced the invasion much much later. 29th Jun. ) This time round, it's Tom Cruise! Yeah! As for the poster? Very gigantic wordings, just like the wordings that you see in movie posters made in the 50's and 60's for historical war dramas. Ben Hur is a very good example. Plot? In the future world, world enjoys peace, but when outside forces invades earth, mankind has to fight back. War tells the story of how mankind fights back through the eyes of a family.
Viola. The end of the story.
