there is this particular species of Human Beings whom i absolutely detest. i hate their inability to take effort to look for their own sources, and i despise them for not giving credit to wherever they got their sources from.
COPYCATS. urgh. i wringed at the thought of these pathetic Human Species. they totally turn me off.
yes, no doubt, i do look into other people's works, analyse and come up with my own. no doubt i copied my homework during the secondary school days. but i take the courtesy to thank / credit whomever i copied / whatever i took as a reference.
but there's this particular person, Jian Xiang, you can find him
here. one faithful day, i decided to surf friendster, looking for friends / updating myself on my friends. i chanced upon his page, and decided to click on his girlfriend's
link. okay, i admit, i wanted to see who was the girl, and why did she landed up in his hands, cuz yea, he's a jerk. im sorry, but i see him in that way.
apparently, this particular guy wrote a testimonial for his girlfriend. i read it, and i found it so familiar.
the above is a screenshot i took. i realised that it was the same lyrics i used in my own friendster profile, so i checked my own profile.
okay, now, compare the two. EVERY SINGLE WORD IS THE SAME. most of you must have realised that i like to type in small letters, but i missed out one letter. the
I i bolded in my profile. it turned out that this particular
I is also in caps in the testimonial.
by then, i was FUMING. i was cursing and swearing. say im petty, i dont care. i simply hate it when people rip things off my site, without asking for permission / not giving me the credit.
yea, though the above are
lyrics, i edited them, so that the words are in full, i edited them, so that every single letter is small. ( but i missed out the
I ) i took the effort to look for lyrics, to convey my thoughts, to my friends, to my dearest. and this fcukin' jerk conveniently ripped everything off my site, and converted it into a testimonial for his love. -.- no big deal? not to me.
i wrote a testimonial to him. reprimanding him, in a sarcastic tone. and i told him to accept the testimonial. apparently, he didnt. SO, IM HERE! TO VENT MY ANGER! FCUK FCUK FCUK!
this is not the first time my stuff has been copied. ive got people trying to copy my style of speaking / writing, though im no big deal ( i admit ). SO! IF IM NO BIG DEAL, WHY COPY ME?!!!
oh well, enough of that..
on a lighter note, i met dearest yesterday, finally! his boss allowed him to leave early again. haha. cuz there was nothing much to do in camp. i met him at around 5pm at Bukit Panjang Plaza. walked around first, then went to mos burger to have dinner. talked alot. he was telling me that many older men didnt believe that he was an officer, cuz he's only 20 years old. haha.. and he took reservists, who are above the age of thirty years old, for their IPPT. and they tried to convince him to fail them, just cuz they didnt want to run 2.4km. horrible. haha. and his fellow colleagues, also young officers, even met their neighbours or people they know while taking their IPPT. weird.
oh, and i met garret and keng yeow. it has been a long time since i last saw them. but yea, it doesnt matter much, cuz in the first place, im not too close to them.
im currently addicted to the Hong Kong serials showing on Starhub Cable Vision channel 55 at 8pm and 9pm. the 8pm show is a show called 我的师傅是黄飞鸿 and the 9pm show is called 心花放. I LOVE HONG KONG SHOWS!! stupid mediacorp always broadcasts Hong Kong shows after SCV has shown them twice. -.- which means, if i watch the Hong Kong shows on Mediacorp, i would have watched the shows THRICE. gosh. -.-" i strongly recommend subscription to SCV. they have really nice shows! channel 55 shows Hong Kong / China / Taiwan / Korean / Japanese shows.
oh! AND I LOVE ANIMAL PLANET! channel 10. i particularly liked the programme - Animal Precinct.
OH. and i just watched the Taiwan news. there's this uber huge bunny, almost the size of Pommy! gosh! ENORMOUS!
btw! the pet shop in bukit panjang plaza has baby hamsters! the adult hamsters on sale actually -toot- and there are plenty of baby hamsters! i saw one gave birth today! tiny red baby hamsters! haha. reminds me of those hamsters Christopher (Toh) gave me last time. ive got the urge to get them, especially after dearest asked me if i wanted to own some hamsters. haha. but nono! i shall not.. cuz its difficult to maintain. i hate the sight of their poopoo and peepee! so i'll clean the cages every single day. THAT IS DARN TIRING. worse than picking up pommy's poopoo everyday. x: and i dont wanna spend money on their food, and lodging. haha. maybe if somebody sponsors me, i might consider. HAHAHA.
WOAH. WHAT A LONG ENTRY! YOU MANAGED TO READ TILL HERE! hahaha. :D
now&forever
