Medical Medical Student Burnout and the Challenge to Patient Care

2010-02-11T17:53:00.000-08:00

by Pauline W Chen, MD, writer and consultant surgeon
This will be worthy to those studying medicine in Pm4

Not long ago, I read a paper titled “Burnout and Suicidal Ideation Among U.S. Medical Students” in The Annals of Internal Medicine. It brought back a flood of memories.
Skip to next paragraph
Well

Medical school was not easy for me. I knew that I wanted to become a doctor to help people, but I had given little thought to the process. I was poorly prepared for many things: the pressure to excel in ways that seemed so far from caring for people; rapidly mounting debts I signed off on every semester; a roller coaster existence from chronic lack of sleep; hazing from the more experienced students and residents; and the realities of patient suffering despite my best efforts.
Even surgical residency, despite the relentlessly long hours, seemed so much closer to what I wanted to do.

Some of my professors tried to “humanize” the process. They invited us to dinner in their homes, supported our extracurricular efforts to set up health screening clinics in low-income neighborhoods, and tried to make our basic science courses more relevant to working with patients. But sitting where I am now, as someone who teaches medical students and who loves helping others as a doctor, I can understand the challenge they faced. Given the fire hose of information medical students must learn in just four years, how does one ever gently take a sip?
Despite my teachers’ efforts, I was about as miserable in medical school as I had ever been. I felt alone. Neither I nor my classmates could admit to failure, and the last thing I wanted to do was to let anyone but my closest friends know just how unhappy I was. Success in medical school was the first step to a future of helping others, and I was not about to jeopardize that.

Last week I had dinner with two former classmates from that time. We had not seen each other in over a decade, and after catching up on personal news and reminiscing about gross anatomy lab and our first nights on call, one of them said quietly, “I hated med school. I wanted to quit.” The elephant in our collective memories had broken free.

With that elephant now running loose, and the three of us more comfortable with our own professional accomplishments, the conversation grew more honest. “If you look over my entire lifetime,” my other friend said, “those four years were the lowest point in terms of self esteem.” He held his hand out in the air, plotting an imaginary line that dropped precipitously to his knees.

It took nearly 20 years for the three of us to learn that we had each been miserable as medical students. It has taken even longer for researchers to discover the extent to which such feelings exist among American medical students.

In 2006, Dr. Liselotte N. Dyrbye and her colleagues at the Mayo Clinic found that nearly half of the 545 medical students they surveyed suffered from burnout, which they defined as professional distress in three domains: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and low sense of personal accomplishment. Moreover, the researchers found that each successive year of schooling increased the chances students would experience burnout, despite the fact that they had entered medical school with mental health profiles similar to those of their peers who chose other career paths.

More recently, in the paper on burnout that had first caught my eye, Dr. Dyrbye and her colleagues widened the scope of their research, analyzing survey responses from 2,248 medical students at seven medical schools across the country. Again, nearly half of the students surveyed met the criteria for burnout. But the investigators discovered an even more ominous finding: 11 percent of all the students surveyed also reported having suicidal thoughts in the past year.

Dr. Dyrbye notes that we are just starting to learn about the high levels of distress in medical students. “It’s incredibly disconcerting,” she said. “What are the causes? And what can we do as educators to facilitate their well-being? We need a better understanding of the causes of stress to design interventions that will help improve student wellness. Students, just like doctors, need to take care of themselves in order to take care of their patients.”

Medical schools have more recently recognized the importance of this issue. For example, the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, the accrediting authority for medical schools in the United States, now mandates that all schools have a program for student wellness in place that includes “an effective system of personal counseling for its students.”

But beyond the personal implications, what are the ramifications of medical student burnout for patients?

In a third study, Dr. Dyrbye found that when tested for empathy, medical students at baseline generally scored higher than their nonmedical peers. But, as medical students experienced more burnout, there was a corresponding drop in the level of empathy toward patients.
“What do they really need to know before graduating from medical school, and how could they most efficiently learn?” Dr. Drybye asked, reflecting on one of the central challenges of medical education. “All the information we want to share with them is not necessarily what they really need to learn.”

By the time my dinner with my former classmates last week had ended, we had made plans to stay in touch and to do something I had never been sure I would ever do: return to my medical school in two years’ time to celebrate our 20th reunion. Over the course of our dinner conversation I felt strangely connected and nostalgic about medical school; I was deeply moved by what my two classmates had chosen to do with their education. One is a well-loved community obstetrician/gynecologist; the other is a psychiatrist devoted to teaching, working in a county medical clinic and caring for severely traumatized Hmong refugees. And both love their work as doctors.

As I listened to them talk about their work, I was reminded of one other thing Dr. Dyrbye had told me. “We need to change things,” she had said, “because maybe the students who are most vulnerable are the ones who are most empathic.”

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

2010-01-03T16:19:00.000-08:00

Ah, Nyoke Lee's Family!

Wherefore art thou abandoned?

What has become of your family?

All busy with their new lives, as it seems.

We have the largest group in IMU - Chia Yew, Michelle, Shin Yee, Hui Chuin, Marcel, with Ko, Tim and Beng Ying due to join them in two months

The next largest group in the UK. Sorta.

London - myself, Kim and Li Wei

Edinburgh - Su-Ern and Ken Vin

Nottingham - Roshan

Cardiff - Jason

Sheffield - Chiun Min

Then there are those scattered elsewhere

Sharon in Harvard

Kai Lun in Russia

Aly in HELP

Joanne in PMC

Daniel, Aussie-bound

Leelian the activist

Shin Yi still MIA

Not forgetting the devolved ones,

Jamie in U Penn

Geetha in Indonesia

Poh Hui about to leave to Aussie soon-ish

May Suen and Esther still in INTEC

Sue Wei in Cardiff

Hwang Yang just finished his A-Levels

And the pseudos!

John in Nilai

Hui Ning in St Andrews

William to start in IMU

Oh yes, all leading very busy lives as we each embark on our own journeys of life.

Still, we have the Book of Travelling Secrets, keeping us all together.

It is now due to pass from the hands of Charles to that of Ah Lek Ken Vin.

And I am certain that despite the apparent lack of activity on the blog's part, or the Facebook group, PM4 is never far from our minds.

I know it isn't for me.

What lies ahead for the Family?

Only time will tell.

R.I.P.?

Please say no....

Drawing the Line

2009-10-25T12:05:00.000-07:00

I have forgotten birthdays, forgone gatherings, denied the existence of group lunches, made up false excuses and turn the opposite direction - all in the name of objectivity and time efficiency. I didn’t use to be so. I used to be able to while away hours, talking about nothing, with no tangible result at the end of it, except maybe a warmed chair. Now that chair is unoccupied, but I have papers and certificates of better academic performance. Also now, if I were to sit in that chair, I) not many will occupy that chair next to me ii) I would fidget in that seat thinking that I’ve got more important things to do.

Should this be so? There seems to exist this very delicate balance between friends and work. In my quest to improve my studies and my knowledge on American politics or ‘serious’ issues such as laws, I have neglected friends and even family. Even though my absence is felt and sometimes even hurt, I do nothing to stop that. I can defend it by saying I’m striving for a greater good. That though this may suck temporarily, I’ll make up for it with better grades and with more information in my head how to talk ‘informedly, and without bias’. On the other hand, I do not want to defend myself. There is no way I can justify not spending more time with my parents and siblings when this could be my last year with them before going overseas. Nor can I justify my paper accomplishment and my ambition to be successful in an occupation to be more important than making the woman that raised me for 18 years, regardless of hardships, happy by just agreeing with all the disagreeable things she might say. Or that friend who sacrificed her own time for me, but I would not accord the same to her.

Where is the middle line drawn between these two extremes?
Where does focusing on goals stop?
How does it fit into making others (but not necessarily, yourself) happy?
When does social obligation compensate for being selfish?

It’s easier to say balance than to actually stand on that trapeze’s rope itself.

Note : Class Dictator takes this opportunity to apologize for any hurt feelings caused by her. She is currently on a caffeine high and yes, she realizes this is her first post here *slaps hand*. I hope you don’t mind sombre, reflective and somewhat philosophical :)

Inner Medial Femoral Trauma: Etiology and Treatment (CY Kong, 2009)

2009-10-10T22:20:00.000-07:00

Inner Medial Femoral Trauma or Inner Thigh Trauma (ChiaYewnian Syndrome) was first described by Kong CY in 2009 in an isolated case involving a patient named Chi Ko Pek*, a 19 year old male . Chi Ko Pek presented with numbness of the inner thigh and distinct post traumatic stress disorder. After further inspection of the site of trauma and interview, it was found that Chi had presented with a disease that was never reported before in Medicine.

Etiology:

This trauma is humanovector borne. A humanovector in this case Ah Piang the Garang*, an 18 year old female, had inflicted trauma by touching the inner thighs of Ko with her phalanges. This disease will only manifest with cranial (upward) progression of phalangeal stimulus onto the medial inner thigh. Trauma is remarkably more marked if phalangeal stimulation proceeds to the pubic area. Humanovectors of Chiayewnian Syndrome have exhibited abnormally high amounts of oestradiol in females and testosterone in males and very pronounced levels of pheromone secretion. They however curiously are rarely sexually active. This an be explained by the fact that their celibacy actually drives them to out put any suppressed sexual needs to committing Inner Thigh Trauma. Inner Thigh Trauma has a higher incidence in females than males. Patients almost always are atrichomic (hairless) in the lower limb.

Diagnosis:

The signs and symptoms include the universal sign of embarassment- the obsessive adduction of the lower limbs. The adductor magnus muscles of the legs are in a contracted and stimulated state for a prolonged period of time. This can be considered biopsychosocial manifestation of the trauma to prevent further stimulation of the site and to protect from any more trauma. There is marked pathology of mindset in the patient, with vasodilatation especially in the facial area, indicating a sympathetic response (from stimulation by cervical outflow). There is marked numbness indicating sensory fatigue of touch receptors in the medial inner thigh. There is marked psychological trauma: post traumatic stress disorder has been reported in many such patients with Inner Thigh Trauma.

Treatment and Prevention:

The Adductor Magnus muscles

The best method of preventing such incidents are strengthening of the adductor magnus muscles of guys. Posture when sitting is also important. Sitting with legs closed (aductor magnus muscles contrated have shown to significantly reduce levels of Chiayewnian Syndrome.

When patients have exhibited symptoms, there is nothing much health care givers can do. It is as much a psychological disorder as it is a somatic pathology. The first thing to assess is as to the extent of the trauma. It is classified below

1 cm- 0 cm from pubic region: Highly SEVERE (needs immediate psychological intervention)

5 cm- 1cm from pubic region: SEVERE ( counselling)

More than 5 cm from pubic region : No intervention needed, surveillance recommended

Numbness in the leg usually subsides within a day while massage with deep heat on the adductor magnus muscles relieves it from contraction and promotes relaxation.

Stress medication should be prescribed if needed.

Hikayat Amanat Awaang Kolo kepada Jason Chai

2009-08-21T18:00:00.000-07:00

This poem is telling of how intrepid Pm4 girls can get. Awaang Kolo paints a poignant satire of the adventurous girls of Pm4...

Wahai Jason Chai, berhati-hati la kau dengan gelagat gelagat si perempuan PM4.

Adapun mereka yang gatal, suka merenung abs lelaki.

Adapun yang suka jejaka lampai tinggi berilmu bergunung ganang

Adapun mereka yang berhikayat berperihal skandal berlarutan bermula pagu hingga ke larut malam.

Wahai Jason Chai, tutuplah telinga kau bila tergugat,agar jiwa minda dan kau terselamat

Dari kawan jantan kau yang terancam dan solo,

Encik Awaang Kolo

Jika mana mereka bertanya pendapat,

Apakah kuasa seseorang si mamat itu,

adakah abs buntut dia padat dan jitu?

Jawablah kepada insan-insan ini,

Harap-harap dia dah ada bini.

Jikalau mereka mengucapkan Hot Hot

Keluarkan lah sebarang kentot,

Biar mereka terkejut,

Biarkan horniness mereka mengecut,

Biarkan hormones mereka susut.

Jadilah Panglima Garang Amy,

Jadikan diri bagai seorang penjual kolo mee,

Buanglah pheromone mereka,

Supaya mereka kurang terseksa

Amanat ini patut dijadikan warisan pustaka

Bagi kegunaan generasi depan, kini, dahulu kala

2009-07-11T08:54:00.000-07:00

To the Family's Thymus Gland,

Charle's Day Out

2009-06-25T20:44:00.000-07:00

Wednesday was a very funny day.

Two aims were fulfilled on that day.

1) the answering of the question; Where is Jamie ah?

2) the entertainment of Charles Ng Chiun Min, depressed from inactivity and dormancy.

We went to Midvalley: Allyssa, Charles, I and Jamie

we saw 17 again and then went to Starbucks to chat, do you-know-who impersonations, and talk about the years to come, and to further fulfil the clauses of the Jamie-Lohsoh Agreement. No, the clause on throwing chemical models at old ladies was yet to be ratified in action, but i dare say we came close

It was a strange day. From the start of Ally and I coming up to Midvalley,

I recorded 9 times the enchanted question,

Eh, where is Jamie ah?

We even called her on phone finally and asked

Where are you ah?

Even up to where she was in sight, Ally asked once more

Where is Jamie ah?

And once or twice a message came from Charles that asked

Where is Jamie ah?

Clearly the question was answered She was right with us all along.

Mirrors the "you have to get lost to find yourself' tagline.

When after what 2 hours hogging the chairs of Starbucks Gardens, and spending 1 hour buying a book for the sake of buying one,

I bought Hanif kureishi's Buddha of Suburbia by the way, (amid stares of the three "oh yea the buddhist fanaticism thing :P)

But it's a book of literature a British book ( I like only British fiction, but both British and American non-fiction, the latter as a lighter more fun reading material, the former as more of an itellectual challenge- very complex reading habit)

It's a book that examines escapism from dysfunctionality ( that Mark haddon also pokes around with)

It uses such nice vocabulary as f*ck, prick and cum

enough said.

But after Jamie left and thus left us asking

Where is Jamie ahhh? again

Charles took over.

He led us on an eating spree first, practically shortgunning orders
in a Sushi restaurant at Gardens.

A sushi restaurant that charges Rm 12.90 for a slab of fish that can fit in your palm... :p

Then he transported us to an ice cream joint (cant remember the name)

Tried ALL the flavours

made the people working quite nervous that the used testing spoons bucket was filling up fast.

Thank God (PM 4's version or any other version in fact) he bought something.

To mask the embarassment, I and Ally bought also.

Entertaining Charles proved to be a very demanding task.

he then walked into the wine store which purpotedly gives free samples.

Fact: They did not.

Charles actually asked the person to give a tour around the shop: which was no bigger than any chicken rice shop you can find. He was waiting for the owner to offer him some good stuff.

Allyssa and I started laughing

which more or less eliminated all chance of us getting free booze.

The alcoholic he is, Charles, disappointed and wounded dragged us into Isetan Gardens,

where we had to sit on stools as tall as a 1 year old baby and play LEGO

For roughly one hour in which we built purposeless structures while Charles built a tower.

With a window to add to its tower-y glory.

A child was invited to play with his father

to which the child said.

Don't want.

Ok...

when it was time to go home, Charles almost relented saying "Wanna go for a drink?"

Seeing as Alyssa's stomach had reahed critical bursting pressure. Critical in bolded font.

WE pulled him to my car.

And my car was in deep shit.

The sewage tank just next to my car overflowed and there was the overwhelming smell of oh... how do you describe it?

HUMAN SHIT

So My poor Vasa Acini's tyre's and my feet and flip flops got bathed in liquid gold.

such Fun...

2009-06-20T00:00:00.000-07:00

Lol looks like i was biting tang shin yee's hair...

Lowya Buluk at a loss for words

2009-06-14T22:57:00.000-07:00

I cannot adequately sum up my emotions over the past one week, what more the past 18 months. I told myself that today, I must wake up early & write a detailed account of Redang on the class blog, & if time permits, my experience in PM4. I told myself that I will finish writing about Redang, before I head to Sarawak for 13 days & Redang becomes a secondary memory, no longer fresh in my mind. But the words fail me.

I have experienced this dilemma before, after my first PKTR. On one hand, there is such a full treasure trove of memories that must be recorded before they fall prey to the erosion of time & the fallibility of the human brain. But on the other hand is the unwillingness to do so, because the act of putting all those memories down in words would signify that yes, it has come to an end, & this is all we have left to remember it by. Which is the last thing I would ever want.

I don't feel sad. I am still unable to fully feel sad. I know I have been relatively more emo over the past week than I have ever been throughout the 18 months you guys have known me, & I apologize for leaving an emo picture of me as the last memory you would have of me in PM4, but it is not sadness I feel. Rather, it is nothingness, for lack of a better word to describe this state of limbo I am in, of wanting to linger in these moments a little while more, refusing to move on to the next stage of life.

Who am I kidding? As I write this, a few of us have already left Subang. I am loathe to go back there. What charm would the streets of SS15 hold anymore? Nothing but ghosts of a time when we used to walk from the main campus guardhouse to Madam Joyce's, laughing at whatever it was that had our attentions at that time. Faint imprints of 23 silhouettes in the classroom, poking fun at each other & exasperating our lecturers. Shadows in the corners of the rooms that used to house friendly faces, always welcoming a weary friend who just needed to rest. I envision myself back in Taylor's now, only to find buildings which represent empty husks of a life I once led. There is no more comfort or warmth in that place.

Our only hope now lies in three things: the Facebook group, this blog, & most importantly, the Book of Travelling Secrets. I pray with all my heart that these will always keep us connected, that the Book will actually work, that we will all still play our parts as PM4ians, because I refuse to allow this to become a mere memory of my life.

I cannot adequately sum up my emotions over the past one week. But I can adequately sum up my emotions now - writing this made me cry. I still am crying. & I don't know when I will stop.

Jamie Lohsoh Day

2009-05-08T07:25:00.000-07:00

I have started the social experiment of asking in my class

"Where is Jamie ahhh?"

as if she had never left and she was just absent due to a dis-ease.

when in fact she left after the ratification of the Jamie Lohsoh Agreements for INTEC.

It has elicit responses that has really made me burst out laughing.

Loh shin Yi,

was asked in an sms about the PM4 people's scattering the same question

Lol she paid no attention to all the sentimental stuff in the message but just answered the questionby saying

I'm Sorry.... i don't know where jamie is...

I burst out laughing naturally.

Celebrate Jamie Lohsoh Day every 2nd of june

When the sambil lewa attitude stops, the killing can too...

Cumberlek's Jouney in Peeam 4

2009-05-08T05:25:00.000-07:00

Dear PM fourians.

I shall start by saying my Peeamfoourian terminology is horrible. (so do forgive me for it. =p)

Well, i't's been awhile since i've written anything anywhere, joined group events with you guys and actually had a decent chat with generally a lot of people in the class. Yet, class had officially ended, and i'm left here wishing it wasn't over.

I shall declare a few of many things.
1. You guys were the most awesome classmates i ever had in my entire life. By far. You were all so welcoming to one another, always open to helping one another and cooperative.

2. I do wish class never ended so fast.

3. I can tell you TAYMUN would not have been a success if i was placed in any other class other than PM4, simply because i wouldn't have got 90% of the class to join the club and i also wouldn't have gotten such commitment from a huge group of people. Never did i imagine when i wrote that petition letter requestion you guys to join TAYMUN that i would receive such an encouraging feedback in return.

While i was spending my last day with all of you guys i realized how much i've missed out on in the last couple of months for i was so sucked up with myself and my personal agenda. You can pretty much say my presence in class was almost just to attend classes and to do nothing else. I failed to strengthen my friendship bonds with many of you, failed to come across as a warm and friendly guy as i once was and definitely failed to even seem like i was part of the class. For that i sincerely apologize.

Since it is all over now, i guess there's no point looking at the past but instead look towards the future. All of us wil be scattered across the world but hey, in addition to that wonderful idea of that "BOOK", i'll offer my suggestions. ( i may no longer hold any presidential posts to advocate and have the final say over stuff, but i still can suggest. =p)

1. A once a year class meet is definitely very possible. Especially between the months of June- August during our summer holidays. And hey, it's just a day. It's really possible. I can almost assure you that in 10 years time, most of us would be so busy with our lives that we would hardly remember each other, or even make an effort to meet up knowing very well that some of us might not return to this country.

2. the Facebook group to me is the most VITAL communicating tool. I mean come on, there's nothing that beats the internet nowadays, not even snail mail. =p. the one problem about the group which has made it such a lousy communicating tool is that posts on walls do not SAMPAI to the members. Instead, we should just publish a random event and invite all PEEAMFOURIANS TO GRAB THEIR ATTENTION TO CHECK the group once in a while. =p. Thus, the role of the officers of that group become very significant. As much as i like the idea of the book, i have a very bad feeling that it will one day go missing.

I will end by thanking all of you for being such wonderful people and personally sharing what i wish and hope to do in my future so that you will get to know me a little better than what you have in this year and a half.

To start with,
I will choose the road more often taken by PEEAMfourians that is to pursue medicine at Edinburgh. This decision came about after i had a personal revelation speaking with God. Quite simply, to do God's will. And how, it is by being the first one on the ground helping and healing those in need. I do plan to join the NGO Medicins Sans Frontiere when i graduate, go to places where people are living in poverty and do not even get proper healthcare. At the same time i would get to see the world, and see things from a different perspective of life.

And again, the road more often taken, i will choose to specialize. and a particular interest as of now, Neurology. haha. gosh. even talking about it sends shivers. (imagine the amount of time i would spend indulging in text books picking up this field). But yes, this is just something I am thinking of having been inspired by Oliver Sacks and his stories and realizing that this is a field with so much more potential to be tapped out of.(for the knowledge we know about how our brain functions is actually very shallow as of now)

Soon after, i will either choose to be a

i) WHO Director GEneral just like what Dr Margaret CHan is now. I definitely want to make a difference and when i say that, i mean a global difference. And it is by assuming such a high position that i believe we'll be able to do it. (she was the health director of HK who manage to curb avian flu prior to assuming that position)

ii) Get involved in Politics. Why? Because again, i come to realize that i want to bring changes to this country. I want to do something for this country i have lived in for 18 years. And again, it is by assuming such a position, you will have the power to do and bring major reforms. (of course, if i would like to do this, i would have to pick up many dilagues =p including TAMIL)

iii) Be the CEo of a health care company. If i were to do this, i would be looking at earning tonnes of money in which i would use to be a philanthropist myself. And what would i do with the money? Again helping those less fortunate than us (in our own country primarily) and those in poverty stricken regions like Africa. (this would require me to take up an MBA)

I end here.

p.s. It was a very emotional parting session for me today. I am glad i will still be able to see you guys a couple more times before we part ways. And i hope that whatever time we have remaining, we'll be able to make the most of it.

p.p.s it has been within this period of one and a half years i've grown and matured as a person in terms of thoughts more than i have ever done so in my life.

p.p.p.s one more post will follow this one in due time. =)

Your friend always,

Ken Vin Lek.

Timothy dressing up and making up as a 90 year old woman

This blogspot has been running for months but we knew the wisdom of keeping this very pleasant surprise from you until we all say our goodbyes.

From the start of this blog, we have always been theorizing whether you were aware of the existence of this blog ( Note: If you are one who is fond of googling yourself, then ... hint..hint...)

Anyway, without beating around the bush, welcome Miss Yap to the blogspot of a class who have not really got the right screws in the right places up there.

We have spun numerous tales of distant lands and fantastical circumstances throughout our 1 and a half years at Taylor's, of which unfortunately, only a small fraction (the milder ones : smirk) is documented in this blog.

We hope that this blog will only bring two things:

1) As a means of contact and fellowship among the peeamfourians and you. We will continue to update this blog, spinning either tales that don't quite make sense or more serious commentaries which are classified as "State of the PM4 Commentaries". We sincerely hope that you will continually check this blog, comment once in a while and pour attention on your 23 beloved hunks and models , especially those who need it the most... read: Ko :P

2) As a record of events be a truly awesome class, that will one day do great things. We want you Miss Yap, to open this blogspot 20 years later and see articles documenting each of the 23 models and hunks making this world a better place and then click on the archives to find in great horror the nonsense these 23 hunky and model-ly superheroes of the world once wrote and spoke of.

NOw, Teacher, be also proud that you have one more thing to show off to your colleagues :P

I am also proud to say that we have not deleted a single thing from this blog before presenting it to you (although we did practise discretion on what goes up at first :P)

I thus end with the hope that we will not break such endothermic bonds with such a fantastic teacher.

And we hope you do not find reason or enough energy to break those bonds too...

LOVE

PM4

PS: WE hope nothing is offensive on this blog. All the stories are borne out for our immense love for our class mates and lecturers. If at all anything is found to be offensive, we sincerely apologise. WE do not want untoward incidences of certificates being withheld afterall... (a grin and a smirk)

Dear beloved classmates,

Flattered as I am by the attention bestowed upon me - which our dear Tok Bomoh claims is an honour that has thus far only been awarded to the demigod & Jarley - & touched as I am by the concern you all (ie. Tok Kong Bomoh, the tutor, the Donut-taker, Aminah, Ah Wa [or is it Ah Pieng? The horny one lah basically], Lau Bu & Jarley) seem to have over my single status, I would like to once & for all state clearly that unlike Jarley, I do not crave attention in such a manner as you have seen fit to give me.

There are many reasons why my tolerance level went past the threshold level today, none of them being anywhere close to the suggestion that it may be because I like a certain someone whose name shall not be revealed. I have laughed off the past year of jokes as much as I could, but today, it has surpassed the threshold frequency & the electrons orbitting around me are already threatening to go off course. I am afraid of what might happen if they do - they might hit someone or might cause me to emit radiation, fates which I do not wish upon anyone in the class as I love you all too much.

My reasons are simple.

One, because it is a lie, a fabrication based on nothing but wild imagination. Which is fine, seeing as most of our Family stories revolve around such nonsensical fantastical things. But not when it has gone overboard to the point it is today or involves an outsider unfamiliar to the Ways of the NL Family. On top of that, this fabrication is totally, completely, & utterly baseless - unlike the other plots concocted by us, which always had some small element of fact in them (even if only 1.0 x 10^-30 per cent).

Two, because it is a matter of reputation. Said outsiders who are unfamiliar to the Ways of the NL Family might get the impression that my humble Lowya Buluk self is a desperate bachelorette who talks about nothing but relationships all day & thus causing the whole Family to also talk about the same topic. This may seem far-fetched, but it is a highly logical conclusion that can be easily made if the facts available to you are limited to "this class always talks about ___ & ___". Just because our Family frequently discusses the topic of ___ & ___'s relationship does not mean it can be confirmed as truth, but others might not know that it is mere speculation. I do not wish to be known as desperate or frivolous, thus this reason.

There are other reasons, but I will not bog you down with them. I believe that these two reasons are sufficient to make my stand clear & to make you understand my position.

I refuse to tolerate this any longer & if it were to come up in the future, I will not stand by & listen to it & laugh along as I always have. My threshold frequency is evidently lower than Ah Chai's.

Thus, I seek your co-operation & understanding in this.

If all else fails, I will have to resort to drastic measures. Do not force me to invoke the name of the demigod.

Yours in NL,

Lowya Buluk
A-Zhen & Co.

Why we know we have God on our side :P

referring to below post:

1) Su Ern, Jason and Wei Zhen slaughtered Cambridge and made the Dark Lord their Servants... thus earning them Cambridge Brilliance Awards. Which means free food in a dinner by cambridge Jason... We wish them many more slaughters in years to come.

2) Sharon Teng has got into Harvard to study the science of limited resources and today got herself published in Star Education.

Our Big Brother Jason Chai's " A Close to another Chapter"

2009-04-15T01:35:00.000-07:00

18 months of hard work, Ms Yap infatuation and good fun is coming to an end (not to mention the family ties: sisters, husband, mother, grandmother, employers and employees of the Nyoke Lee Family). I’m sure it has been a learning curve and an experience not to forget for everyone.

More importantly is what we take back from this chapter of our lives. Beyond the lame jokes, the diverse impersonations and random insults, there is definitely something more to “life as a peeamfourian”.

I’ll definitely remember the various food places in SS15, the good and the not so good. One of them being Madam Joyce Eatery which started off as a small “chap fan” shop at H20 drinking stall and has ever since been a daily stop for lunch till now. Nah, I’m not going to bore you bout the different foods and what to eat and what not to. I’ll be writing a mini biography of Madam Joyce herself (please dun turn her into another god :D).

She started working ever since she was in school (can’t remember what exactly) and furthered her studies in hotel management locally first and finally in Switzerland, working part-time. She was actually involved in the management of the First World Hotel in Genting. As her husband was involved in construction, she too helped in site management, etc.

Madam Joyce was a lady of many talents. She then moved on to the food business where she started off selling on the streets and was later spotted by the H2O drinking station people who asked her to set up the stall at SS15.

She said that cooking has always been the passion and finally she was able to pursue it. In fact, she was asked to cook Malaysian food at the Venetian in Macau but turned it down. Instead, she chose to come here. Many people may wonder why tire herself at such an age (her daughter is already married) to cook? She enjoys cooking because it gives her satisfaction that people enjoy her food, people like us. Cooking was initially just her hobby where she would entertain her friends but now she has a bigger audience, a bigger group of food tasters: lecturers, students and working adults of SS15.

Her plan for the future is to travel the world not to enjoy beautiful sceneries or historical places but to unselfishly help the poor in places such as India.

The moral of the story as cliché as it sounds is that we should learn from people like this who dare to pursue their passion, who have the guts to step out of their comfort zone to try something new which has always been dear to their hearts. Let not our dreams we have as children fade away but let us realize our long-standing ambitions. Let us hold true to the innocent dreams we have untainted by remarks from people around us and the world. But also grow from experiences to be able to put these dreams into reality.

I believe each of us is different, one of a kind and with the potential to make a difference in this world. As the chapter in Taylor’s College is coming to a close and a new one beginning, don’t forget the experiences we have had, the lessons learnt and the friendships made. Time belongs to no man and it is inevitable that we all have to move on but everything has its own time. There is a time for friendships to be made, a time for relationships to form and for some to be broken. There is a time where we learn from our failures and a time to rejoice in our triumph. There is a time to teach and a time to learn from others. There is a time for joy and a time for disappointments. It’s a never-ending journey of learning and discovery and in two months, it will be time for all of us to part our separate ways.

But nonetheless, we are all peeamfourians at heart and shall always cherish the every moment we have had together.

The Book of BuckminsterFullerene

almost 1 and a half years ago ,

a demigod (for fear of using a more appropritate term that will make the writer be labelled as a heretic)

created a world who worshipped her

and she has given back the fruits of these worshippings (Ayat 2,4-dinitro, 3,6 dichlorophenylhydrazine)

for her children have become thus

a male child will become either the discoverer the cure of AIDS or the dentist who becomes Prime Minister of Malaysia

a female child will go to Harvard to learn the trade of limited resources, and then to fully alleviate poverty in the world

a female child will become the lawyer who finally drives things that are meloyakan from the world of law and at the same time handle a divorce case that has gone on since the beginning of time :P

another male child will laugh and by his laugh resonate the hundreds of structures, physical and mental that he has created

another female child will give new meaning to medical treatment by breaking the all important clause in the Hippocratic oath "In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves"

another male child will build mobile structures that go as fast as the eagles and run on green chemicals. If he obeys the 12 principles of the demigod a fair maiden in a parallel shall steal his heart

The other children will be as bountiful in deed and possessions as compensation for suffering for service to the noblest profession and youngest science.

in a few months, the demigod will release her leash on her 23 children

and she shall go off riding her burette CRV making new worlds every 1 and a half years

Daniel Lee attempted to achieve nirvana. He made the attempt when Mr Lai(chicken rice) and his students were in the scene. They all turned to him.

Does achieving nirvana attract attention?

I think nirvana cannot be described because there are no words in existence for doing so. Not non-existence either, it is beyond the very ideas of existing and not existing.

War Crimes Exposed

2009-02-03T23:46:00.000-08:00

She made us stand on chairs

She made hundreds and hundreds of lies (on her relationship) to us

She took away our freedom of speech

She took Ko's name away (by calling him Mr Khoo)

She rolled Roshan's name and thus induced trauma and scars on him that will last a lifetime

The sufferings of the Shoba kalimuthun regime were countless, vast and unimpeded

She killed millions of trees mercilessly and tainted their dead bodies (which she impaled and sliced into a million pieces) with Maths questions

Grace be to God that her crimes are now exposed in the open...

Let us not suffer in the future,

When the sambil lewa attitude stops,

the killing can too....

Congratulations and hope you become a mother of many many young dictators soon...

the night before christmas

2008-12-24T20:27:00.000-08:00

best read with the nutcracker song playing;

it was a silent and strangely also luminescent night

Ko tucked into bed at twilight

as he dozed he went deeper and deeper still

into the realm of nyoke lee

he dreamt santa yap came tohis roof

went down thru the toilet pipe into his room

and there she stood and lookjed for a while

and then she rushed to find ko's socks

she hung it on his wall next to his teddy bears

and then out of her LV bag

she took curious things

that could not be ascertained

without attention

but as the moon's glow shone more brightly

everyone could see

that it wasn't toys or a cherry

she put in dozens of pipette fillers into the sock

hoping Ko will be happy and nice

hoping her burettes willcontinue to entice...

its christmas. and im so sacrastically excited.

2008-12-24T08:02:00.000-08:00

mornin.
brothers.
sisters.
mothers.
grandmothers.
gods.
filter paper.
and silver nitrate.

i had salmon.
4 breakfast.
lunch.
and dinner.
yesterday.
as it is officially 12.01 am now.
thus,
merry christmas.
a happy new year.
with lots of chocolate.
and an occasional apple juice.
anw,
so long.
n thx 4 all the salmon.

White Paper

2008-12-15T17:39:00.000-08:00

Zhen requested so here goes,

From http://selfprofessedtechie.blogspot.com/2008/12/white-paper.html

I love babies. I think everybody does. Even the most heartless person in the world would at least show a tiny bit of compassion towards babies. There is just so much purity in a baby's face and their thoughts since they have not been polluted with anything.

A baby always reminds me of a plain white paper. Whatever is written on that plain paper will soon define the meaning of that paper. If for instance you use that plain paper as a page of a textbook, it will come useful. But when it is found as a page of a Hello! magazine, it becomes pointless. (no offense to fans of Hello) The plain white paper can even be made evil when it is sent as a hate message or used as a blackmail. The bottomline is, a plain white paper can be converted to anything, just like how a baby can grow into a unique individual.

Do not get me wrong. I am not having some emotional motherly instinct right now. Neither am I planning to have one soon.-.- I am just blogging about this subject because just yesterday I visited my ex-Biology lecturer's houseto see her 1 month old daughter.

I went to Sunway first just for some window-shopping before heading to Taylors to meet up with PM4. Gosh, I really missed them especially those that did not come for the previous Sunway outing. As an ex-Peeamfourian, I receive my class T-shirt that they were all wearing today since it was considered a "class trip".

Then, we went to our Biology teacher's house in 6 cars! Hui Chin, Roshan, Shin Yee and Chia Yew were among the drivers. I sat Hui Chin's car and I have to say that I really respect her boldness to travel so far and her ability to remain calm throughout the entire journey. She is pretty steady in driving and we reached there safely. In fact, when we were near the housing area, since there were practically no cars but the 6 cars, we actually did a little "fast and furious" act. LOL

I actually felt quite pai seh about the idea of 24 people storming a lecturer's house but Miss Ko seemed ok with it, so we went straight in. She even allowed us to take turns to hold the baby, which I never even thought of trying because I was too afraid. I am the youngest one in the family and the line of my cousins, so I have zero experience carrying a baby. In fact, I have never even been this close distance to a baby.

Her name is Chong Yong Wei. She happened to have the same "Wei" as Zhen. Everybody's attention was at her and she was such a loveable baby. She did not cry the entire time we were there, which was an unusual thing according to Miss Ko. She occasionally move her mouth and make cute gestures, causing us to love her more.

Daniel: Teacher, can I marry her?

*Everybody laughs*

Zhen: Wah teacher, your daughter is so lucky...so fast got marriage proposal already

Miss Ko in a joking manner: That depends, will you be willing to wait that long?

LOL!

Zhen: Yong Wei, must study very hard and be smart and do A-Levels in Taylors, you know..

Esther: Come on Zhen..She is only a month old!=P

LOL again!

We left Miss Ko's house after about an hour. I got a lift from Chia Yew instead since he could send me to the LRT station. We did a little "fast and furious" again on the way back.LOL.Sitting in the car with a bunch of guys was hilarious. Daniel puts on a Buddhist prayer on Chia Yew's car stereo and was trying to "hum" to it in a weirdly funny manner together with Tim. Kong was showing some impersonation of our lecturers, as usual. LOL.

Tim: Oh no, Hui Chin's car cut us again.. ala we're the last now

Chia Yew: Nevermind, lets take a longer way and divert ourselves from them, pretending we got lost just to make them feel guilty.

Moments later..at the Subang Jaya roundabout

Tim: A la, they didn't even call. They don't care about us anymore..

*Tim's phone rang, Alyssa on the line*

Tim:Hello...........yea......we're lost la......all your fault la.....cut us and leave us behind................ha....we're at......er.....somewhere la....we don't even know......at Jalan Terubuk..........got err..........a Petronas Station...........and a SHell station..........you come and fetch us la

All of us in the car were controlling our laughter as Tim put up that act. Alyssa really fell for it and almost wanted to ask Roshan to fetch us! Lol

After we arrived..

Alyssa to Tim: AIya, what Jalan Terubuk you talking about???!!Where got such thing as Jalan Terubuk???Aiya, you ah..

Chia Yew dropped Shin Yi and me at the station. We compare our colleges and things in our current life in our conversations during the journey there. It was a fun trip overall. Somehow, PM4 always manage to spice up an outing..Lol. I miss being a Peeamfourian.=)

jason: u so good, u drive la. i ve no problem wit that.
ko: nvrmd, show abs.
Laughter.

d rise of a new tradition

2008-12-08T19:03:00.000-08:00

hug.
d simple act of putting one's arms around another.
n squeezing with gentle continuous force.
for a period of no shorter than 3.142 seconds.
to be done whenever 1 feels like it.
especially on occassions,
when there a feeling we wont see d person 4 a long time.

this act of pure bonding has occured practically.
and has crossed d boudaries between gender and love of chocolate.
since d 5th december.
n has carried on till d 7th by outstation ppl.

which in turn proves...
nothing.

except that we share a close bond.
and we are a family.
and so much more.
except nothing.

and d exception of nothing means evrything.

The Other 'Bo Neng' Girl

2008-11-07T05:31:00.000-08:00

there's a legend that historians have doubted for centuries, a legend so dark and sinister that saying it would leave a mark of disgust on your face.

yes I am talking about the Strange Legend of the Other Bo Neng Girl.

It is said that the Creator once experimented by adding some sugar, spice and everything nice into her Golden Burette.

when she opened the tap, the most putrid smell of carboxylic acids filled the air and white fumes filled the air.

The creator got into a fit of epilepsy and started saying

" I believe in Chiun Min. But belief does not transcend figurative boundaries. I dare say When I have stopped beleiving, this first creation shall return - The Imperfect Creation"

Then she woke up and started thinking what went wrong.....

A click sound went of somewhere and then the Creator knew the Perfect Formula.

she added Milk, IKo Biscuit, and Mating Cockroaches into the Golden BUrette,

and when opened

the whole room became psychedellic.

Tua Neng BU was born.

But remember she had a half sister of course, if your short memory span allows you to.

The Imperfect Creation with White Fumes and "Oic " scent.

Shela is the other Bo Neng Girl

You are our Candle in The WInd (which inCidentally was made by fractional distillation from crude oil through a process called.....)

2008-11-06T17:02:00.000-08:00

LAU BU
YOU WILL BE SORELY MISSED

14TH mARCH 1900- (WE FORGOT) ,2008

Lau Bu died at a date the writer forgot (but what's important is that she left us). She died due to depression and her long battle with breast cancer (which incidentally also raged through Tua Neng Bu, thus invalidating her name.)

People are reminded that Tua Neng Bu is still nyanyuk and sesat and still thinks Lau Bu lives. You are reminded that the Akta Rahsia Rasmi Kerajaan PM4 applies to you also. You are not allowed to mention Lau Bu to Tua Neng BU. When she brings up the topic of Lau BU, stuff biscuits in her mouth and wash it down wif milk (melamine tainted or not). Keep your receipts - they are claimable)

Chaioate has been reminded of the need to go for a breast examination and is reminded that some Charity Organisations offer aid in paying for 1.

Her wake was held at the J Co outlet at Sunway Pyramid. But back to our beloved Lau Bu. Her death has been to some, a source of inconsolable sorrow and rage (rage due to her not revealing her will before she died). To others it was to great relief and euphoria (Read: the maids).

One notable fact in a message sent to the whole family was that all the donations in kind had to be made to Chaioate. The Bomoh on that day warned against doing such a thing for Lau BU's spirit might have been angered by Chaioate's apparent greed. The Bomoh provided an excellent remedy: He was to collect the donations and get to keep 40% of it ( so as to mask the apparent greed by Lau Bu's elder daughter)

The funeral started with a procession, a Dark Parade, in which My Chemical Romance actually performed ( partly a tribute to the Fairy god Mother Nyoke Lee.) but a notable change to the lyrics was this:

When I was a young boy,

My MOTHER took me into the city...

this was done to placate Tua Neng Bu, or should we say Bo Neng Bu.

The procession went to all the IKO biscuit and J CO outlets in Malaysia (Cases of food poisoning from consumption of their products very coincidentally coincided with the very day the Procession was held. The Bomoh blamed it on Lau Bu's grief at leaving. More logical people blamed it on the fact that a ceremony done had caused it: Lau Bu had been brought out of the casket and made to smell the JCo donuts and IKO biscuits- The Bomoh claimed this would make sure she wasn't hungry during her journey to the Paradise of Chemicals whicj was filled with esters and Burettes housing top quality alcohol.

The Bomoh has come under fire for not lengthening Lau BU's life. The Bomoh Could not be reahed for comment about this. Although it is widely known that the Bomoh once performed a LIfe lengthening ceremony, in which Chaioate fed two of his own babies to Lau Bu at a J CO outlet while being photographed smiling.

Ko couldn't do anything but ngerrr when reached for comment. (there are rumours that he had an affair with Lau Bu- he was attracted to her -i would rather not mention here)

Little Girl was reported to actually be laughing when Lau BU died while Chaioate was looking for flaws in the pants he bought. Meanwhile Bomoh was at Lau BU's side all the time. But her death was not a sad one ( we think so la, Bomoh oso say so, sure correct 1). She was taken to a dinner at the infamous Jalan Alor where she feasted on or-chien, sate and other Malaysian delectables. Lau Bu's beloved son-in-law was claimed to be spotted to be in the same room as one of Lau BU's son in laws for reasons that are not known or cannot be known for fear of visits by THe Jabatan Agama Islam.

The employees, all the maids were given a public holiday on the day of the wake ( a reason why none of them attended the wake but instead went to petaling street to buy the fake version LV bags - the same one owned by Fairy God Mother Yap (whose one was original, naturally).

Her will is yet to be read by Lowya BUluk, thus making her reputation and name more valid, but there are rumours that Tua Neng Bu actually has all the assets and recently used it all to buy biscuits and milk (which were all melamine tainted). On that note, the Chinese Governemnt thanks Tua Neng BU for making the milk in China's market now all melamine free.

Seeing such unjustice, 7 days after the funeral, when the family went into anarchy, Justice Pao came into the scene. Some girls who find him hot have codenamed him Sang Yoke Pao.

His mission is to bring justice back to the family. He says he also wants to practice pancunging wrong peple again.

But the forefront seems very different. No one respects Justice Pao nad he has done nothing so far. It probably reflects the nolstalgia and sentiments of the Family that we want our Lau Bu Back.

But the very wisdomful Bomoh knows better (he could be contacted for this comment, strangely....)

we all know, times of peace as revealed in revelation, can only come with the return of The OTHER 'BO NENG' GIRL

& PM4 welcomes a new addition...

2008-11-06T00:39:00.000-08:00

No, we're not talking about The Other "Bo Neng" Girl...

We're talking about... Ms. Ko's baby daughter!

Yes, if you didn't know yet, our dear Bio teacher gave birth to a healthy baby girl, weighing 3.2kg, as of yesterday, 5th November 2008.

We're all so happy for her!

We don't know what they plan to name her but well, we'll find out soon enough when we go visit her in December!

Till then, stay strong as we finish the last two weeks of this race!

We'll see you at the finishing line. ;)

Zhen reveals...

2008-10-31T23:02:00.000-07:00

A Public Apology

SPOTTED: Lau Bu

2008-10-13T01:03:00.000-07:00

SPOTTED: Lau Bu leaving the SJMC Radioscopy Centre accompanied by Tua Neng Bu, frown on his(her) face & spirits low, carrying a file that looked suspiciously like a medical report. Sources from inside the centre [whose names we obviously can't reveal or they'll be fired for disclosing private information] tell us that Lau Bu has been diagnosed with Stage 3 Terminal Cancer. The doctors have given him(her) only a few months more.

Well, that certainly explains (or does it?) Lau Bu's recent announcement that he(she) will be officially disowning his(her) Cha Bo Kia, one-half of the (in)famous J.Ko Donut owners, Jason Chaioate. The question on everyone's lips is, with Lau Bu disowning Jason Chaioate, who will inherit Lau Bu's business empire?

The Lau Bu business empire is a massive one, sprawling a wide range of companies including:

Chocolate Milk production - a legacy from Lau Bu's mother, Tua Neng Bu. Also the humble roots of the Lau Bu empire
IKO Biscuit production - which is expanding, especially with the new mini-movie, "Daniel the Biscuit Boy", which features IKO Biscuits, causing a surge in sales
Lau Bu Labs - which is expected to receive a Nyoke Lee prize award for outstanding research in Lau Bunian motion
Out-of-the-Hitchhiker's-Guide's Studios - whose latest movie, Mamma Miss Yap, has become a success both critically & commercially, the movie becoming the Highest-Earning Movie Ever in the Pee Am Four Box Office, grossing an amount so impossibly high that people may just start flying without wings. The Soundtrack to the movie has also been well-received, with its single, Mamma Miss Yap, breaking into the Pee Am Four Charts at #1

& that's not even half of the family business.

So, to whom will the responsibility of carrying the family name fall on? Will it be Ah Beng, Lau Bu's other daughter, who is currently the CEO of LolliPop Ltd., yet another branch of Lau Bu's massive empire. Or will it be Chee Ko Pek, the other half of Jason Chaioate? Rumour has it that the two are now seeking a divorce, but the volatile couple have been on & off again ever since they got together. The deaths of their 8 J.Ko donuts are partly to blame, but even if the rumours were true, Lau Bu has always had a soft spot for Chee Ko Pek. Besides, the research in Lau Bunian motion, which won Lau Bu the Nyoke Lee Prize in Physics, was mooted by Chee Ko Pek. With such creative potential, could Lau Bu, then, possibly pass the torch to his son-in-law, even if he(she) were to disown Jason Chaioate?

& then there are the other members in the not-so-immediate family. Lau Bu has been known to make strange decisions in the past. It would not be surprising if Lau Bu were to decide to leave his(her) empire to one of the many non-blood-related assistants in the family.

The family attorney, Low Ya Buluk from A-Zhen & Co., has refused to give a statement on behalf of the family. "You'll know when you know," she said.

You know you love us.

XOXO,

The Family

Honestly, dah-lings, I'm quite disappointed.

Did you really for one moment think that I would actually let that fluffy, straight out from Alice In Wonderland layout be printed in our CAL magazine?

Tsk tsk...

Did you really think I have such... 3-year-old taste?

Okay so maybe my Anastasia character would have [yes, that's what I've named my Enchanted character. You know, the one who bursts spontaneously into song?]. But this is Zhenelle we're talking about here.

[by the way Zhenelle speaks with a British accent. Go back & read the start of the post again, this time with a British accent]

Oh well, fear not, this is how your class page is going to look like. For real now, dah-lings.

Ignore the bluish tinge. I don't want you to see the final product properly till it's done.

Till next time, dah-lings. I'm off to have my cup of tea.

Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy

2008-09-09T20:15:00.000-07:00

mornin.
reminiscence of a particular moonlit night, erm... cloudy night,
it was awesome.
and still is awesome.

well im gettin the hang of kong style crap.
for i now realise the importance of the kong's bible.

on that fateful night,
zhen asked, what makes kong, Kong?
as in The kong.
with his unique style of kong which makes ppl mistake him as one of the direct descendants of confucius,
an old man i respect which has now gone with the wind to achieve nirvana.

and now, i discovered the truth.
kong's bible tells it all.

bfore this ive seen the movie of this book.
but this book is much better than the movie.

when i first saw the book,
it was just some normal storybook that i could finish in a few hours or so to kill time durin the holidys,
wit its yellow brown pages,
and blue front cover,
and the words
"The Hitchhikers' guide to the Galaxy."
'by douglas adams'
on it.

however,
on readin the first page,
i knew this was different.
this book was different.
and still is different.

other storybooks give you story,
sci-fi,
fantasy,
romance,
mystery,
suspense...
this book gives you that
and something else.

pure kong style shotgun mode crap.
its an epic of how kong came to existence,
with the aid of infinite probability,
and its inverse of finite improbability,
which then lead to an untimely, and unfortunate existence of a bowl of petunias and a sperm whale.

note that this part is from the storyline itself,
which also emphasizes that no one has ever taken the liberty to fathom how important ur towel is to u.

as u can c, this is bullshit in its utmost sheer purity of 101%.
which then leads me to concur that,
although this book does not teach us on the topic of 'Yay, i get true love',
it is the book
as in THE book which is essential in the trainin of the future professors of crapology, a highly recognised branch of the ministry of bullshit.

and not to forgt, this book tells you the answer to the meanin of life, and evrytin.

the ans is,

forty-two.

thats all, ladies and gentlemen,
so long and thanks for all the fish.

A project of epic proportions

What do we do?

Come June 2009, we get 23 envelopes.

and each one of us gets something that is most memorable to them:

For example, I get my Jmie Lohsoh Agreements, frowning photo and a blogspot, make 23 copies of it and put 1 each in those 23 envelopes.

The other 22 people do the same.

In fact those who devolved and are pseudo are also most welcome.

whats more,

for those who are closer to others than the rest, you can add something to their envelopes.

for example, I put in an IKO biscuit into Daniel's envelope.

perhaps some deodarant in Jason's or a gummy bear for Su Ern, a photo of a Hunk in Michelle's and a bottle of gel in Ken Vin's

A lantern in Beng Ying's (commemorating the first time they went public), and a mock lawyer'scertificate for wei zhen, a paper crown for leelian and a photo of miss yap and meryl streep for timothy, a map of France for Roshan and a picture of a burette for Ko,

and wei zhen added the icing to it:

Ohmygosh. Yes I agree! Something you want others to remember you by. Then we shall seal it and promise not to open it and see it again until a certain day. Say 10 years later. We shall all agree to meet at a pre-picked place at a pre-decided time, all carrying our envelopes/packages as our entry ticket. Then we shall sit together and open it together and reminisce together about 'ze good old days. XD

It has already received rave reviews:

xcool. but im not getting a deodorant. by the way chia yew how ah the familyy tree? -Jason Chai

wonderful!!!!!haha- yeoh Su Ern

gosh... wonder...=T - Marcel

What bout the others? any ideas?

Kisah Cinta Agung II retold

2008-09-04T18:01:00.000-07:00

this was as my promise below. it was an original post published in http://www.vasoaminichiayewni.blogspot.com/

i reproduce it back here for the every once in a while opportunistic Pm 4 reader

i am going to go out of my normal routine today of talking about so called serious issues and talk about love. Yes u herad me this is about love. THis stems directly from a question a classmate of mine asked me during lunch one day

Eh, forgive me for being somewhat immature but what is love ah?

Well i gave him a short nonsense filled answer to him that day. But this is Chia Yew's official answer.

first what love isn't:

it isn't as Chin meng correctly puts it looking at a girl and thinking she's a stick with breasts on it. http://www.vagabondsworld.blogspot.com/

it isnt for girls a person with a nice body and a tall posture.

it isnt that sudden exhilirating feeling from down under when u look at that hot girl.
If u called all of tyhose love, we will live in a very depressing world.

LOve is that developed or instant feeling that you want to live with that girl forever and ever, sharing everything of yours with hers. It is that feeling that you get warm and at times heartracing that you get when you see that girl and better yet get to know her.

Love is that feeling or urge to fly without wings with her for a period of not less than 33 days. Love is that complex chemical interation in your brain that says, everything's going to be all right. Love is that feeling you get when you are a girl that you are protected and you are n good hands. It is that feeling that you have finally made a right decision for once.

You will want to protect her, embrace her and laugh with her for no particular reason at all. YOu feel that even though she does something incredibly silly you will not get irritated and give out sureshan frowns but you will just laugh. She is some one you want to hold hands with forever.
And the best thing is she need not have perky breast, her body need not be described in three super small numbers, she need not have to have a taut ass. Heck she can still be loved. (although with those attributes, it is easier to lovela but the magnitude of love maybe not the same...:p)
you see ah, too many times i have seen friends use the wrong formula

Love=Lust

Love is not carnal pleasure. Love is not looking at a hot girl and licking your lips. LOve is not staring at some girl's chest. For girls, Love is not staring at someone's buns or bodyshape. that is purely lust.

Lust is nature's insurance. TO ENSURE WE DO PROCREATE. If there only existed love, we would be extinct readyla...

Dont love someone because you are supposed to love someone or all your friends are having girlfriends.Call me old fashioned, but i still believe in true love, which fulfils all the conditions above.

I WILL NOT LOVE SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SOMEONE JEALOUS WITH MY 'TROPHY'. i WILL LOVE SOMEONE WHO I CAN MAKE FEEL SECURE AND LOVED AND CARED FOR. THAT IS MY MANIFESTO...

To love someone pretty is not a guarantee. She might drive u up all the walls in your house. So you married her on the basis of lust. On the basis of status. Because you want to show her off. Sickos...

But i am not saying that looking at someone's assets is wrong :P. Just dont overdo it. Imagine an old, dirty man looking at them from top to bottom stopping at strategic spots. Disgusted? YOu are no better than that man.

Anyways, the message remains.

When marrying dont go for looks, go for comfort. Love her or him not lust over him or her.

Talking under Moonlit skies

2008-09-04T17:46:00.000-07:00

sometimes the very little things influence you the most.

for me it was the moncake festival we had on the 4th september 2008.

although the mooncakes or the booze wasn't quite the influencer... (okla i would be lying if the latter did not play even a minuscule role)

it was a story of an adorable friend who had his first kiss with his girlfriend ( i would vote best story, thank you. K$ *a^ R*i

it was a story of a boy who was called a sissy, a nerd and an antisocial that finally became an intelligent, confident hunk in the eyes of PM4 (not necessarily girls...)

It was about a boy clarifying his love for his biscuits and reinforcing his

love for his Mother.

It was a story about meeting third parties and being third parties.

It was a story of full rectification from pre-secondary-depression to cum laude excellence.

It was a story about interclass love and courting the right one.

It was a story of the ideal other half.

It was a debate about lust or love at first sight,

It was about a philosophical ranting about that hormone induced state of mind .

It was a debate whether going to the Mamak thereafter would be an anticlimax (followed by Timothy making sexual analogies to it...)

it was the story of us.

a diffusion of truth and opinion under a moonlit (okla it was all clouds) sky in a playground.

it was not about roshan getting topsy or jason stripping to his bare, buff essentials or daniel questioning God.

it was not about throwing people into the pools (ok i might be having second thoghts about this... let me recover from hangover 1st)

it was the openness we or rather some very good friends showed.

and that fired up emotions, stirred up thought.

and that all happened quaintly under the moonlit (heavily clouded), wet pavemented playground.

i was very moved because the first sentence defines me.

and i felt i did not do justice to all of you.

so blog i shall as you have so generously exposed your hearts that starry, moonlit sky (clouded, once again)

i did not do justice because i don't really fancy being put in the spot (like Mr Lek)

i prefer typing everything out shortgun style...

and i think i have the answer now as to the most significant event in my past 1 year (not past 18 yearsla... don't torture me with such soul searching)

and i think i have answered it with this post

we should do more of this, seriously...

as in Daniel's own (actually cut and paste then put back into his mouth) words:

"yay, i get..... to listen and i get to talk under a moonlit (actually cloudy) sky in the wee hours of the night"
...

of biscuits and daniel lee

2008-09-03T05:38:00.000-07:00

hwwwwyyyyyyy?
once upon a time...
in a far far away land...
there was a biscuit...
i ate it.

and gt whisked off to the land of youtube.
by the authority of nyoke lees family.

the biscuit was innocent...
i was innocent...
wat has the biscuit done?
wat have i ate?

jus the innocent biscuit...
but that doesnt verify the action of posting the biscuit on the net and ruinin its chance to be seen by the world as the one and only biscuit which was a biscuit who doesnt eat biscuit but was eaten by a biscuit eating biscuit.

this is injustice.
i demand a full pack of chipsmore and chocolate as compensation of nt bringin the biscuit's mother into the picture.
on further thoughts....

hwwwwwyyyyy cant i even eat a biscuit in peace?

Daniel the Biscuit Boy Makes Waves!

2008-09-03T03:21:00.000-07:00

KUALA LUMPUR: The critically acclaimed video, Daniel the Biscuit Boy, is making waves in the virtual arena! Within just one day of its release, it has chalked up a huge following amongst various communities, cutting across ethnographic, geographic, & just about any demographic borders you can think of! Insiders even say that it has been tipped off as a favourite nominee in next year's BOHming-kia-zho Awards, though nomination period usually begins late in the year on the 31st of November.

Daniel the Biscuit Boy, a simple, touching, heart-warming video, was directed, written, produced & acted by Mr. Kenvianni (also known as Ken-Wan-Neh) & the title character, Mr. Danieeeeeeeel himself. Critics has hailed it as the "most talented piece of work" that has come out of the virtual arena in recent years. A video with timeless values that has been likened to the teachings of Confucius, Daniel the Biscuit Boy tells the story of an innocent boy who just wants to impact the world with biscuits. Very much influenced by his mother, he strives in many different ways to bring about awareness of the importance of biscuits, stopping at nothing to achieve his goal, yet always ensuring that his mother would approve of his actions.

Mr. Chiayewni Kong, renowned philosopher, gushes at the stark simplicity & profoundness of the video. "The biscuit was symbolic for roundness, perfection and daniel's love for pregnant mothers. In fact i would dare theorized it symbolizes a Mother." He has even written a thesis on the analysis of the video, which can be found here.

The genius of the video is this: the symbolisms underlying the video are many, & one would always discover a new aspect with each new viewing. Says Ms. Zhenelle, a prominent critic, "Daniel the Biscuit Boy marvelously portrays the inner desires of a boy who never grew up; a boy who, essentially, just wants to please his mother. It effectively spells out a hidden problem many 21st Century boys bring with them, even to the working world, & when they have built their own families. Mr. Kenvianni & Mr. Danieeeeeeeeel have succeeded in producing a simple, accessible video with a heavy message, tucked in with a myriad of layers that can never really be peeled off. A masterpiece of our time."

We will be awaiting great news for this video from the land of flying-without-wings.

*Daniel the Biscuit Boy is currently showing on Nyoke Lee's Family & Youtube.

Daniel lee: the biscuit boy, a critical review

2008-09-03T00:26:00.000-07:00

i critically put forth this thesis/review on the video below:

Daniel's love for biscuits was portrayed with such strength because of the presence of a competitor for his love: ken Vin.
The biscuit was symbolic for roundness, perfection and daniel's love for pregnant mothers. In fact i would dare theorized it symbolizes a Mother. A mother gives you comfort, food to eat and is symbolic for giving life. In baptism rituals of christians, a biscuit symbolises the flesh of Jesus Christ himself. daniel was playing into that to send across his message
there was a certain element of mysticism in it: the line starts with " if i let you go you will never know" it is symbolic of the perversities and complexities of love.
the video has delivered a greater and much stronger message for homosexuality than Broke Back mountain
the hint of pointy hair was a strong undertone that love is enetring rough terrain.
Daniels charater hints of a paradise we all forget, the paradise of youth and virility and of playfulness. He hints that perhaps we should go back to that paradise where we are just satisfied by the hint of that all delicious biscuit and maybe just perhaps ponder on loving biscuits more.

Biscuits symbolising a greater love.

brilliance

pure brilliance

Ken vin has come out with a spine chilling and brain slicing satire on the root and true essence of homosexuality and love.

and it serves second hand as a biscuit advertisement.

just one imperfecture: he should have used a Tiger biscuit.

But who cares, rite?

critical times

2008-07-10T03:35:00.000-07:00

this is for you jamie, we now live in critical and immoral times.

kalimantan has gone bald (which increased the lust for him in some quarters (read Ko and michelle)) and increased the mockery on him (read: everyone else)
miss ko is more pregnant now, there fore leading to daniel being proportionally more happy.
ko has been molested a record 18 times (may or may not be accurate) by various individuals and is now fully ostracised by Miss Shoba who decided she should call ko khoo to dampen the semangat he has in his name.
mr suresh finally made the long awaited coup de grace- saying he wants to strangle ko. sparks flew that day.
ko has joined the ranks of najib and anwar. he has been caught sodomising and being sodomised by burettes by a certain mak cik.
timothy has launched his new vogue word- bell from dumbbell- jamie bell, nyoke lee bell, kong bell, dumbbell.
marcel has been caught conspiring agaisnt order 33 and assassination of dictator. he will be dealt with soon enough.
wei zhen has been granted the title of wizened the intelligent girl by arivom namasivaya, the last king of majlis bandaraya ipoh.
su ern is in a dilemma over which bus to take after an increase in petrol prices and change in governemnt policy.
daniel is in the running for the nobel prize after inventing a new way of greeting people- scratching their heads while saying "bradder, wats your name?"
chiun min was caught laughing by nyoke lee for no reason. this made her believe in him more.
dictator has become more dictatorious after the plot to kill her by marcel has yet to materialise.
A NEW HOMO PEEAMFOURIANS WAS BORN- SHARON TENG - she will undergo initiation soon by Jabatan Kerja Raya Malaysia.

these are difficult and critical times. we are all traumatised. we are an endangered species. Majulah sukan untuk negara.

good morning

following the success of the first lecture:

http://vasoaminichiayewni.blogspot.com/2008/06/kos-logic-chiayewnian-lecture-series-1.html

i will today present a further short lecture that packs as much controversy as salman rushdie's satanic verses.

my intellectual activities will soon be limited after this lecture by a certain relative of mine

but this post is as necessary as daniel needs his mother and su ern needs her buses and li wei needs his cars and ken in needs his dress shirts and wei zhen needs her books and timothy needs his nyoke lee and marcel needs his kolo- mee and ko needs his back to be broken

right.. that wasn't necessary but bear with me.

this lecture will change your life.

this lecture is about the

the pseudo- homo peeamfourians

yes the not really a homo peeamfourians

want to know who it is;

yes people his name sounds like, looks like and tastes like

john khoo wei juan

MEchanisM of hybridisation

he was a friend of lek, the guy who most probably ken vin any competition. this caused a, what i call, hybridisation opportunity. the second order hybridisation opportunity came with the Royal Club of The Cucumbers. John Khoo is a man infatuated with cucumbers. he could not resist.

and the Prime Hybridisation gross opportunity was non other then our dictator: :p

now some say the semi prime hybridisation opportunity was this;

anyways a run through the characteristics of ths strange specie:

he would really like to become Mr Darcy

he isnt ready for girls yet

he is undergoing his romantic period

he studies at some secluded area in the jungles of Malaysia- some say that its near kalimantan's house but this has been proven to be untrue using a ko-kong diagram (click on link up there)

he knows 3 kims

he is a male

there that sums up all he is :p

i have through this lecture risked my ownership by the dictator, but i don not care....:p i now embody the spirit of sybil kathigasu and M. Suresh.

thank you

In keeping with the Spirit of Kiasuism, all of you have probably heard that Semester One Exam results are OUT!

Which makes this post kinda redundant.

But I'm still posting it anyway, because The Family needs to ensure everyone is in the know.

So here goes.

If you're one of those non-Kiasu Homopeeamfourian (which is a probability of 1.0 x 10 to the power of {-10000} ) who does not know the news yet, our results can be checked online.

Class T-Shirt Design Suggestions

2008-06-19T09:12:00.000-07:00

Sorry, Kong, I did this before I saw your recent post.

But anyways, the Class T-Shirt Design is of UTMOST importance. We have to at least agree somewhat on a design before I meet the T-shirt people, hopefully sometime next week.

So we shall put it to a vote. Either

Since Jason our Future Millionaire insists on asserting his "awesome-ness"
The back part is just supposed to be like our names scribbled at the back.

The colours in the 'PM4' is required so we can distinguish between names. But as to which colours to use, it's negotiatable.

So vote separately for one FRONT & one BACK. You can interchange the front & back designs. Kong's idea is still up for voting as well.

As for T-Shirt colour, white T-Shirt with black writings. [Except for the PM4 part].

Please leave your votes under "comments". DO NOT put your votes on the tagboard. Those will not be considered.

Stay classy.

Press Release

2008-06-14T08:21:00.000-07:00

Prae Medicina 4 Studios presents an original new series,

Nyoke Lee's Family is a smart, highly entertaining dramedy that will literally blow your minds off with its diverse yet kiasu cast, witty & intelligent dialogue ("awesome", anyone?) & its impeccably timed punchlines ("Teacher, the earth goes around the moon?")

Following the lives of 29 very prolific students from class PM4 of Sekolah Menjahit, Nyoke Lee's Family captures the drama & laughter as these bunch of students embark on a journey of turning strangers into friends, kicking Jambatan C.A.M's ass in A-Levels & driving their lecturers up the radioactive wall in the process.

The show's title character, Nyoke Lee, is a renowned Chemistry lecturer with a penchant for flying without wings. As the January 2008 intake for the prestigious Jambatan C.A.M. A-Levels programme at Sekolah Menjahit begins, Nyoke Lee undertakes the seemingly simple job as PM4's class mentor. Little did she expect the Herculean task that lay ahead of her.

Not that PM4 was a problematic class. Far from it. Boasting some of the best brains of the country, PM4 students were very hardworking (or so they seemed during the first few weeks) & with half of them on scholarship, it was evident that good grades was a common goal between students & lectures alike. What Nyoke Lee had not anticipated, however, was the... 'one-of-a-kind' ness - 29-of-a-kind? - of PM4.

Nyoke Lee's Family

For example, though Nyoke Lee had had foreign students before, she had no idea how to deal with the Kalimantan student who swam regularly across the South China Sea & suspiciously got himself elected Finance Minister of PM4.

& then there was the girl who killed with her silent laughter, the World Nuclear Association delegate who loves all the mothers in the world, the Zouk clubber who sleeps in class & moonlights as an evil dictator, just to name a few.

As the series develops, buses are stopped & chased after, legs are poked & caressed, sexualities are debated & questioned & a host of other interesting developments crop up.

With such a quirky mix of eclectic characters, there is never a dull moment in Nyoke Lee's Family.

Keep your eyes glued for Nyoke Lee's Family.
