let's talk about terence's favouritest NOT subject.

As i type this bloody post i need to submerge myself in the most calming and condusive environment. a nice playlist of my favourite songs blasting into my ear, the fan in my face to protect me from the trauma of living in a HUGE oven (the size of a little dot on all world maps). hmm. why all the trouble and drama? coz i am about to blog about one of the most uncouth, uncultured, uncivilised... forget the "un"s... COMPLETELY BARBARIC, ARCHAIC, MEDIEVAL thing; called...... "the decisive force". let me first say that this is the best way of describing them.... well.. you'll get what i mean soon enough.

soooo.... as most people from singapore (aka hellhole)... will know, our MIGHTY military calls themselves, "the decisive force". PURE. BULL SHIT if you ask me. ANYWAYS, why the hell am i blogging about this? i mean... do they even deserve a post dedicated to it? well... technically NO. but....... seeing that its time to enter the pathetic biased shit, i think its only right to talk about it.... somehow...

SO.... let me talk about... the WONDERFUL experience i had filling up the documentation online. FIRST thing i noticed..... SEVERE lags in loading time. i mean, i dont have TIME to wait for 5 minutes for the bloody page to load. GET A MORE EFFICIENT SERVER you pathetic IT idiots. dont go wasting everyone's precious time. if you gave everyone a dollar for each minute of waiting time i'll have earned about a hundred bucks and yall will be frekaing BANKRUPT.

then after that... it was COMPLETEly irritating to have to LOOK for the link for the documentation.. since... they said absolutely NOTHING about it in the stupid lousy HUGE letter that they printed and mailed... i mean.... SAVE THE FREAKING TREES YOU STUPID BUNCH OF GOONS... the earth is DYING as it is... no need for you to add on to its burden sending bundles of paper to trash since people just see and THROW it AWAY. but i digress.. the point it... they didnt even have a link for it in the front page. i mean.. if its the first thing that i have to do.. it should be somewhere FREAKING OBVIOUS dont you think?? USELESS people ... where is their BRAINS? their assholes? my GOSH.

and the stupid filling out of the forms.... what the hell are you trying to do.. PRETEND to be "organised" to arrange everything in some sorta tree diagram? ITS NOT WORKING DUDES..... GET. REAL. just LIST it in a simple, organised, PROFESSIONAL-looking interface.. i mean... SHITLOADS of money have gone into this miserable area of the government hasnt it... well.. SHOW THE PEOPLE SOME RESULTS.. get BETTER people to design your LOUSY, UGLY website which looks like an elementary school art project that i would have submitted. MEDIOCRE. (yes. i admit, my art sux to high heavens. so this is actually a great insult to them.) and PLEASE... dont go and use some WEIRD format that takes AGES to load. its BEYOND frustrating.

ok. that is about the interface. now the questions themself. can you be anymore VAGUE? some of the things are just sooooo UNCLEAR... like.. HUH.. what EXACTLY do you want me to put there? i dunno... and HONESTLY, i DONT think that THEY know too. what the HELL has my CCA gotta do with them ANYWAY.... and PLEASE... if i am taking PRE-U course.. i.e: the BLOODY A LEVELS.... doesnt that AUTOMATICALLY MEAN THAT I'M NOT IN FREAKING ITE??????????? WHY THE SHIT do they still ask if i'm taking a course there or not???? REDUNDANT AND A PURE WASTE OF TIME. and if you want details.. shouldnt you give me a LARGER word limit? if u want details... i need SPACE to write them..... what the FREAK is the POINT of ASKING for details if i cant WRITE it down in DETAIL? i mean.. that's the whole goddamned PURPOSE isnt it?

ok. i shouldnt go TOO much into it.. (trust me, there is A LOT more to complain about.) but i'll talk about ONE LAST THING.. which i ABSOLUTELY cannot stand. and given MY PATHETIC GP GRADES... and i'm criticising it.... then they should SERIOUSLY go get some SERIOUS help... i mean... at LEAST....... get a LITERATE person to type in stuff. so what the hell am i babbling about? the LANGUAGE USE of course.......... i mean.... it is a definite EYE-OPENER for me. i have NEVER SEEN such ATROCIOUS language in any OFFICIAL, GOVERNMENT WEBSITE in my entire life. hmm... perhaps you dont understand what i'm talking about. let me give you an example. Photobucketnote note the examples underlined in red. amazing. i love how that is a blatant display of their proficiency in language. it DEFINITELY deserves to be credited, honoured and worshipped.

well.... i'm done talking for now. gotta go and do something more useful like... econs data response. oh the joy.

p.s: "speak good english campaign"? hmmm.... i think the government, or at least a particular arm of the government, sets the PERFECT example. people should be ENCOURAGED to follow the government which can do NO wrong.
