HAHAH what an interesting topic, though im pretty sure that very few people will write about it
and thankfully, im one of those few people so YAY CHEER! :D

back in kindergarden, i used to be unafraid of the dark, but extremely afraid of cockroaches. so when i went to the toilet in the middle of the night last time, i didn't bother switching the lights on (perhaps because i couldn't reach the switches waaaaaay up there then haha)

so there was this time when i went to the toilet, and after closing the door, after washing my hands and whatsoever, i suddenly spotted this HUGE cockroach near the sink. i was frightened and started panicking and wanted to run to my room asap

then BANG. i crashed into the door because i forgot to push it open - -" (my door is black you see)

ow that really hurt. the only thing i could take comfort in was that
no one saw it (: PHEW hahaa

HAHAHA let's see.

i was in japan in pri 2. and then there was once when the tour guide let us walk around to shop. then i couldn't find my grandma then i started crying and running to my mum and telling her my grandma is lost/kidnapped/dead and kept crying.

-.- !!!

Haha i somehow saw this when i was looking through my blog archives.

What can you learn from DotA? Physics!!!

1. Turbo buffalo

This is the very basic of physics. If the Spirit Breaker’s acceleration is a, then his velocity after time t is V=Vo + at, where Vo is the initial velocity. The distance after time t equals to x=Vot + ½at². But in the game, Spirit Breaker’s velocity becomes constant after a few seconds accelerating to the enemy. I guess that this is due to the air resistant and friction force.

2. Luna’s bouncing shuriken

Luna’s attack reduces to 40% for every time her shuriken bounce. Here, we can say that 4/10 X ½mVo²=½mvV² where Vo is the initial velocity and V is the velocity after the shuriken collides. The shuriken’s mass doesn’t change so we can simplify the equation to V= Vo(4/10)^½.

3. Lawn mowing creeps
If Juggernaut spins with constant velocity, ω, then the centripetal acceleration can be defined as a= ω²r.The energy of his spinning blade equal to mrω²/2. Where m is the blade’s mass and r is the length of Juggernaut’s hand.

4. Bone with his searing arrow

If we neglect the air resistant, the arrow is falling with g acceleration.The x-axis velocity is given by Vx=VoCos(θ) where θ is the angle of the fired arrow.The y-axis is given by Vy=VoSin(θ) – gt where g is gravity and t is the time after the arrow was fired. Then we can find the maximum distance that the arrow can go from the equation:R=Vo²sin(2θ)/g.

5. Rhasta’s marathon

Rhasta is one of the slowest heroes in Dota, probably slower than the creeps. If Rhasta’s velocity is Vr and creeps’ velocity is Vc, Rhasta is moving Vr-Vc relative to the creeps.

6. Butcher’s spring of death

Let the Leoric’s mass is m and the distance between Pudge and Leoric is x.The energy needed to extend the hook to x distance is given by E=½kx² where k is the force constant of the hook. The work done to pull Leoric is xma. From the conservation energy theory, we will get xma=½kx².By simplifies this we can express the Leoric acceleration toward Pudge by a==½kx/m.

7. Waving creeps to afterlife

Akasha’s wave’s wavelength (λ) is constant. We can make a hypothesis here that the air pressure and density doesn’t change even if a battle occurs. The velocity of the wave can be expressed as v=fλ where f is the wave’s frequency.


LOL i almost wanted to use this for physics ACE last year...

something random
| 10:00 PM
to keep this blog going, lets have a common topic so that everyone can contribute!
and the topic is...
something random about yourself that no one else knows!
its really a random topic, but it'll help us get to know each other better= class bonding!

so i guess i'll go first!

in primary 2, i got 99.5/100 for an English Test. The 1/2 mark was deducted because I spelt 'their' as 'thier'. And until now, I still sometimes make that mistake. HAHA.

ALERT!

I believe mr lee will be sending out the letters containing our result slips anytime soon, or maybe he has already sent out.
SO.. those who have to camp at the letter box and assault the letterman, time to make your necessary preparations.

Good Luck!

To keep things alive
Wednesday, July 9, 2008 | 12:06 AM
Seeing Eileen's fantastic efforts into keeping this blog alive, i was no doubt touched by her persistence and determination... In fact, it reminded me of my high school days, when we go Zi Qiang Bu Xi all the time.... Credits to our president
then anyway :)

To be fair, Eileen's jokes are pretty much as funny as the content you can find on this blog www.eighteenfive.blogspot.com ......Only soccer fans would understand this thou....

Actually i can't think much to post anyway.... But i heard that most class blogs die alrdy, so we shld like keep on this posting... So we can be more imba and dunnoo....

Heres a picture of Jia Han for you anyway :)


Ok, dun be bad to our dear Mugger Yeo.....

I think our class has a lot of talented people....

Creative and Aspiring fiction writers like Gerald

Muggers who can dance like Jia Han

Muggers who can mug like Rui Wen

Ultimate people like Chai

Punctual People like Fong

People who always make it for appointments like Hiroshi

Its indeed a great honour to be in such a talented class... 

GOOD LUCK TO GAO MIN for her canoeing competition!!! (If shes taking part)

Jia han dun take offence seriously... If not can ask Mo Xiang help you... hes always against racial discrimination one de... MX (not the one that took your psp home today and WROTE SOME CRAP AND VANDALISED ON SOMEBODYS GEOG NOTES!!!!!) never discriminates agaisnt other races....

what is marketing?
Monday, July 7, 2008 | 8:52 PM
ALL THE BEST TO GAOMIN FOR CANOE COMPS!!! 

our blog is on the brink of dying again. this is so sad...people please blog more! 
found this funny marketing joke. actually i found this other jc joke first, but i'm afraid it'll be too mean because it makes fun of some of the JCs. if you want to find out what it is, just google hwa chong jc jokes. 
anyway heres a marketing joke, useful for econs!

WHAT IS MARKETING ? 

1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “ I am very rich. Marry me! “– That’s Direct Marketing

2. You’re at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: ‘ He’s very rich. ‘Marry him.’ - That’s Advertising

3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say: “Hi, I’m very rich. Marry me” - That’s Telemarketing

4. You’re at a party and see gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door (of the car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride and then say: “By the way, I’m rich. Will you Marry Me?” - That’s Public Relations

5. You’re at a party and see gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says: “You are very rich! Can you marry me?” - That’s Brand Recognition

6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” She gives you a nice hard slap on your face. - That’s Customer Feedback

7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” And she introduces you to her husband. - That’s demand and supply gap

8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person come and tell her: “I’m rich. Will you marry me?” and she goes with him - That’s competition eating into your market share

9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say: “I’m rich, Marry me!” your wife arrives. - That’s restriction for entering new markets

"If you are 18 years of age or younger, why not enter the Commonwealth Essay Competition and pit your writing skills against students of the same age around the world? There are lots of prizes - and you may even get your essay published.

Every year, the Commonwealth Essay Competition inspires thousands of young writers from all over the world. Organised by the Royal Commonwealth Society, the Competition has been running for over 100 years and is firmly established as a highly regarded and popular international education project. With young people writing from all Commonwealth countries and territories, the Competition enjoys much esteem and support throughout the Commonwealth. "



Hey gerald i found the best thing for you..
I believe for someone of Gerald's talents, with teh ability to come up with amazing fiction out of nowhere, he should take this opportunity to take part in the competition... Coupled with his immense imagination and amazing logical thinking, im sure he would achieve something :D


Who knows, one day we might see Gerald as an author selling books like JK Rowling now.....

One thing is for sure thou, gerald has a very special talent, of great and amazing imagination :)
