Gapfiller

m life has run out of excitement, so all i have to post is a random post about random stuff. acts as a gapfiller too.

in about 2 days time (28 may), its a special day. at least for me. i guess not many ppl knows. nor do they bother to find out. anyone can tell me the correct answer by then, i give u.. $1!

Yesterday i spent an unusually long time on holdem poker. went on a losing streak, ran out of chips a number of times and had to buy in with more. at the end of it i had lost a few thousand. then i joined a higher stake table and played a short while, and soon i made a huge win. satisfied with my loot, i left, intending to stop playing alr. then i realised... i had exactly the same amount of chips as what i had at the start of the day! an hour plus of ups and downs, then back to square one. =.='
i notice that whenever i get a particular hand, i always win. many times others who had it won too. next time once i have it ill just ALL IN. clue - its not a pair of anything.

social politics. the issue that has been burdening me for most of my first year of poly, is finally getting better for me. my bunch of associates have bonded more on the whole, and have come to accept me more. and one factor that i believe has greatly contributed to this is the quite recent incident of the betrayal by one of them.

apparently they took it so hard and have now totally outcasted her. not only does she not mix with us anymore, my group sees her as some abomination, and its like almost a crime to associate with her anymore. we even make fun of her and flame her behind her back. i dont think she deserved this kind of treatment; they could have easily been more gracious. but she plays along anyway and doesnt try to talk to us anymore. the latest event: we decided to set up a class blog. an email was sent to everyone in the class to tell of the blog name, user account and password. but to spite her, it was CCed to her. (also thought of sending to the rest and forwarding to her) was kinda mean.

how does this cause me to fit in better - at first it was 4 girls 5 guys, but now its 3 girls 5 guys. since tables in the FC are all 4-seaters, 1 guy (usually me) no longer have to sit alone cos of the seat limit. now 1 guy will go over to join the girls, in place of the betrayer. this has caused the 3 girls to become closer with us guys. and of course, i wont have to sit alone again. i really liked this change, and it couldve been an answer to my prayer when i prayed for better acceptance. but at the expense of another person? does God work that way?

1 more project to go, and soon it will be holidays yet again! i have been pretty drained the past 2 weeks, am relieved im getting a good break. but not so much a time for enjoyment cos the tests are all just after the hols. what a spoiler. but better than before it, or we'll all fail or die.
