I.P. ZONE's jackets

Background:
From whacky!'s opinion, I.P. ZONE sells pretty good quality apparels at quite budget rates. Apparels include printed Tees, jeans, shorts, jackets.

Have you brought a jacket, cardigan, sweater from I.P. ZONE?

How much did you pay?
$43?
$35?
$21.50?
$15?

If you bought at over $40SGD, do make a trip down to the shop today and prepare for chest beating(remember kingkong's favourite move?)!

The price strategy that I.P. ZONE follows is similar to electronics business (i'm assuming this based on its jacket's pricing) - high retail price when it just hits the market and drop gradually after a while.

$43: Launching price (usually last for 2weeks)

$35: "$8 discount" - common sales discount, to make you feel that you had saved a bit (2-4wk)

$21.50: "50% off" - big words to attract us, but really good price. It's not so easy to find cardigans at $20.

You think that's all? 2 - 3 weeks later... ...

$15!!!: This is when you should buy the jacket.

Yes, in less than 2 months, it will drop from $43 to $15 (saving of $28). So next time if you see any jacket that you like from I.P. amd is selling >$20, just wait for a while =]

In case you really like that design and fear that the stock will run out, don't worry! From whacky!'s point of view, the jacket will still be available when @ $15, if you really like that so much, buy when "50% off" offer is on to play safe. I'm 95% confident of this ;)

Driving!

Just finished my driving lesson and I think I had made tremendous improvements! I like driving as I can step hard onto the clutch pedal, it's so fun! (why is it fun? no idea, maybe i just like to execute violent movement =p) Anyway for those who drive or had drove, the first few lessons must have been pretty memorable, isn't it? ;)

Here's an account of mine when I just started learning:

Here's the scene where the deal happened!
The scene with the actual traffic
So I was happily driving at 50+km/h, when all of a sudden, my instructor commanded me to turn right! Then just turn loh... ...

Hence, this is what happened... ...
The car swung from point B to point C!!! Interesting right ;)
Details:
At point A, almost get hit by the on-going car.
Point B, almost hit onto the stationary van.
Point C, ALMOST hit onto the moving lorry!

~Sweat~
When I was back on track, I swore I saw the instructor grabbed tightly onto the overhead grab handle! WTF! So scary meh?! ):

And he sarcastically remarked, "Your driving very good sia!" ):

Anyway he also pointed out my mistakes. So to friends who are going to learn driving if you happen to chance upon this situation.

1. Slow down (Turning at 50+km/h is pretty dangerous for beginners)
2. Stop before the white dotted line if you see on-going vehicles (Remember to signal in advance to prevent getting hit from behind!)
3. Turn to the right lane (Refer to the advanced theory handbook)

Haiz.. I think I'll need to take 40 lessons in order to go for my practical test! Know why? The instructor repeated the same story to me for 3 times already.

---His story---

He: "I got 2 testee last week/ 2 weeks ago/ a month ago (coz repeated 3 times). One took 20+ lessons, another took 40+ lessons. You guess who pass?"

Me: "Dunno/ Both" (1st time, i dunno. next 2 times, got the answer liao.)

He: "Both/ Ya. Some people are good in driving, some take a little longer. Just like some people have their forte in maths, some don't. For me, I never seem to get the calculations right, but luckily my languages not bad. When I learned driving... ....(Blah blah blah) So that's why I become an instructor."

---End---

So indirectly hor! :s Really need to buck up. I don't wanna end up in the "not so good" category. Gambatte =]

p.s. Driving is draining out my money! Anyone got any temp job to introduce? =p

Player @

Feeling a bit moody that only 1 person commented on my blog so far, I decided to play daidee(大老二) online!

Was happily gaming until "player @" came in. To keep things short, this player was pretty annoying by criticizing other players, such as remarking, "WT F, noob, etc" (in consider for readers who do not like these words, I shall try to minimize the usage in the blog=] ).

Moody state brought out my urge to "whack" him a little. Hence, whacky! said "You like to comment a lot sia. You think you very pro wor?" (Notice I didn't use vulgarity, I dun use them unless I'm really pissed or just fooling with friends.)

Typical as-hxle as expected whereby player @ went on to hao lian(show off) how good he is.

(Point to take note: Once you identified the player is an as-hxle, no point debating with him coz no way you can knock any sense to any hole, it's empty)

So i just listened to his hao lian and kicked him off my table when the game ended. Muahaha!

---THE END---


OF COURSE NOT! It is a 100% boring post to the end off this manner. Here's the highlight!

Player @ private messaged me, "Why? Angry that I scolded your girlfriend wor? I just f@rked her nicely at the bathroom floor" (FHI, I'm currently single. Angry? Nah. More interested with the word "f@rked")

He continued, "F@rker u!" and blocked me! ):

"F@rker"? If you had read through my post and know some vulgarities, it shouldn't be long for a word to cross your mind ;)

But from the way he try to change the form of the word, "f@rker" can be misinterpreting! haha

1. Farter
I clear my waste everyday in solid state, shouldn't have much toxic left for a qualified farter.

2. Forker
Forker? I don't think I'm

If only i can ask him which word he refers to, but too bad he blocked me ): (Player @, if you happen to read this post, let me know why you spell as "f@rker")

Word and Question of the day:

"F@rker"?

The birth of whackywhack

Yea! Created my first personal blog!!!

Qn: Why is it now(me not young liao) that i decide to create a blog?

Only got my computer 3 years ago, i cant be blogging straight away when i've yet to familiarize myself with the cyber network right. Hence, until a year ago, I decided to play with blogging! But i dunno how to set up an account... ...
.
.
.
Nah! I'm just lazy! 1 of my new year resolutions is to start a blog. Since it's the easiest to fulfill, why not? So tada, here's the birth of my blog!


Qn: What is my blog for?

1. To share interesting findings
2. To rant my complains
3. To pen down my thoughts
That's all i have in mind now. Will expand the list when more uses of the blog cross my mind. (Suggestion?)


Qn: Why is it "whackywhack"?

Since it's my first time creating a blog, it's quite a pain for me to decide on the URL. Hmm.. maybe a decent name, a lame one, a sophisticated one, etc. A lot of ideas came to me, coz i'm so creative! =p

Here are some of the interesting URLs during the brainstorm (u may use my idea, i'm fine with it!) :

slapmycheek.blogspot.com (available 6/1/2009)
If you know me in person, dun you always feel like slapping me when talking to me? Haha.. Well, i kinda like that URL, but i dun wanna provide a valid reason to get slap when i go out =]

badassboy.blogspot.com (contributed by raychelle, unavailable)
My ass is fine, but at least i know she always think of my tight ass when my name strikes her! lol

badassguy.blogspot.com (available 6/1/2009)
If you like the previous url, u may consider using guy instead of boy =]

iskippedlecforblogging.blogspot.com (available 6/1/2009)
Ok, i skipped my lecture today and the reason? =p But, i cant be using that as my URL, it's -_-"

whackywhack.blogspot.com (unavailable since 6/1/2009, 12.53pm)
It's cool, isn't it? haha.. i think it's wild, yet meaningful, easy to remember and i like the "wh" sound. Dun make sense to you? Well, the purpose is not to make any sense. I'm just being whacky!

Finally,
hackyhack.blogspot.com(available 6/1/2009)
If u dun like the "wh", this can be an idea url for your blog. Start blogging if u hv not, it's fun! (unconvincing from a newbie? =p)


Ok, that's all for now. Have to start studying for higher maths ): (had failed 2 tests alrdy, argh!)

p.s. Although i'm lazy, i'll try to keep the blog alive

p.s.s. Give me some comments on how to improve the blog (links for better template or even better to create one specially for me, increase blog hits, my posts, some gadgets that would be cool to put in my blog, anythi!)
