Sickness, Daughtry and Organic Chemistry Exam

Thursday night,
feeling sick (with sore throat) . Could be H1N1 but I seem to be recovering after drinking the miracle drink (beer) during Daughtry's concert.
Though... kinda lost my voice abit and my sense of hearing (just like the Nickelback concert where my ears have gone slightly deaf and a constant high pitch noise can be heard).
That said, it's 6.30am and there's 4 and a half hours left to study for the 3rd organic chemistry exam.

Influences? Power?

1 in 1000 people looks to the right, the other 99 people won’t care.
10 in 1000 people grouped together looks to their right, the other 990 might follow and you’ll get the domino effect.
But all it takes is to kill 1 out of 1000 to show that you have power over the other 999.

It all depends on the situation.

Life and time you can't get back.

My grand-aunt passed away on 09/09/09...
I lived with her in Taiping when I was 2 to 4 years old or so. She loved me and cared for me.
She was rather active in her early years but as time passes on, she aged and started having Alzheimer's. She's getting rather forgetful last I saw her. Her frail old body trying to keep up with her daily life. It's kinda sad how I couldn't do much. Not even able to pay my final respects at her funeral.

I'm missing a lot back in Malaysia. But I have to choose to forgo things. Choices I'm not so sure if it outweighs the other. I'll leave that for another blog post in the future. For now, RIP.

My Corruption

Asian countries with the HIGHEST CORRUPTION PERCEPTION INDEX (CPI) SCORE year 2009!
1) Indonesia .. corruption score : 8.32
2) Thailand .. corruption score : 7.63
3) Cambodia .. corruption score : 7.25
4) India .. corruption score : 7.21
5) Vietnam .. corruption score : 7.11
6) Phillipine .. corruption score : 7.00

while corruption score for Singapore is almost 0!!.. this is one big reason why Malaysia so hard to a be developed country

SN1,SN2, E1, E2???

I never liked remembering stuff. This is why I'm forgetful.
I'd rather understand how stuff works. But I still need to refer back to the books.
So what happens when you get both of these in one subject? Organic Chemistry.

I'm too used to my other Che exams where it's all open book and open notes. Gone are the high school days where I have to remember word by word of everything in the textbook for about 5 classes. I.am.a.wizard.you.shall.not.pass. My brain's totally messed up.
