Twittering

28 May 2009

Just recently I signed up for this fascinating... thing on the web. Didn't thought much about it, until I read this article by a Sri Lankan writer.

A BIZARRE NEW new habit called Twittering has taken the world's idle rich by storm.

You use your phone or computer to send out a constant stream of short news alerts (called "tweets"), so people know exactly what you are doing at all times of the day or night.

The word "Twitter" is derived from "twit", meaning "moron", and describes the users targeted by the service. (The original name was Pathetic Egomaniacs Anonymous.)

Taken from Nury Vittachi's web column.

The NS Experience: Humble Beginnings

27 May 2009

Welcome to Kem PLKN Millenium, Beranang. This is where - over the next three months - you will be pushed to your limits and your character will be tested for extraordinary patience, perseverance and self-control.

I have to say, things definitely looked bright when I first stepped in the camp for the first time. Then again, it probably was just the afternoon sun. I carried with me a simple travel bag and a backpack crammed full with essentials for living; or as Baloo from the Jungle Book would say, 'Bear Neccessities': a bible, a water bottle, and most importantly, a packet of instant noodles. I was ready to survive the next three months, come what may!

Minutes later, my instant noodles were taken away from me.

Well that would have been the case for the other campers who went through the spot check. I carried my bags right past the trainer. He looked at me, I looked at him; and he said, "Checked?"

"Yea."

"Alright, you can go."

1 hour and still surviving...
