It’s the tenth anniversary of MMU. Pretty big event. There isn’t any shortage of events being held to commemorate it either – nearly every notable club is holding something. Chalk it up to those Entrepreneurship lectures: never miss a possible tie-in for your event!
The Student Affairs and Sports Division (STAD) is going one better though: What better way [...]
Remember the Bible Code? The theory was that every important person/event in the world is encoded in the Torah (the first five books of the Bible), and can be found by dividing the Hebrew script into columns and searching for phrases in them (so that’s what God was doing on the seventh day!). It was just one [...]
Found this in today’s Sun, p21:
After a decade of bringing blockbuster movies to people staying on the south west side of the island, Cathay Cineplex in Bukit Jambul Complex will be closed from 5pm next Monday. The closure is in line with the company’s plans to consolidate all its services under one roof at [...]
Jordin Sparks will win. She’s the most versatile and has the most appeal. If only she could stop being so sickly sweet and giggly off-mike. And she shouldn’t have redone her hair – argh. Every Jane, Jean and Gina has straightened hair.
Melinda and Lakisha are both excellent. But this is not a singing competition, [...]
It’s very rare that I manage to score a copy of the Sun. Because it’s free, copies are usually snapped up quickly. That and the whole stigma of having front-page ads (or should I say ads as front pages?), publishing fewer pages than the norm, and being less “established”.
But hey, quality over quantity; don’t judge [...]

If you’re a subscriber to DiGi – although this should apply to other lines – you’ve probably been receiving spam daily promotional SMSes from DiGi. I can’t give examples because I immediately delete them. But they’re still highly annoying, especially when you’re expecting an important SMS.
Today it got worse though. When I was walking to class (in the rain, I might add) [...]
Rocky’s bru has a heads-up today on voter registration. According to Malaysia Today, it might be wise to register before 31st March:
“Bagaimanapun, jumlah peningkatan ini belum lagi dapat dipastikan sehingga tempoh untuk semakan semula yang akan berakhir 31 Mac ini selesai. Selepas itu, daftar baru ini akan kita pamerkan di 841 kawasan untuk bantahan dan [...]
In MMU every office, lab, and classroom has a code. CLCR2003 for example means Common Lecture Concourse, right wing, third hall on the second floor. ITRA1001 would mean a lecturer’s office, first floor of the IT building. NW0001 would mean the Network Lab, so on so forth. It can get confusing sometimes if you [...]
While waiting to take a mid-term test this week, I happened to peer into one of the neighbouring lecture halls and noticed the students dressed up and the lecturers watching. It was that time of year…
About the only time I’ve ever had geniune interest in a subject in my years in MMU was during my [...]
I’ll begin with Rehman Rashid’s impossibly wordy piece in the NST on why blogging is bad. Only towards the end does he finally start to make his point:
…The local blogosphere is the domain of life-challenged grumblestiltskins and disenfranchised pundits whose asinine maunderings only show why they should never have had day jobs in the first [...]
