Mug
v. The Singaporean version of cramming for exams, i.e. scanning notes into one's brain. As if it wasn't filled with enough junk already.

Only if Necessary
adv. The night before for classroom assessments; one day for lecture tests; and one day and night (per subject) for major examinations.


This author is currently on hiatus for the ignoble cause of mugging. The public is advised to remain calm, as this routine protocol has been shown to have no effect on one's violent tendencies in 96% of cases.

The Irony of Exemptions

[Yeah, i know this was on my WLM personal msg sometime back, but my thoughts now and then are different. ;) ]

Well then, there's this certain Reidan (note the spelling) who's been spamming me on WLM during the entire exam week. He's been exempted for four out of five subjects (the best in the entire sec 2 level), and the irony is that he's bored.

Yeah.

Plain bored.

Even asking me to do blog posts like this to relieve his boredom.

So i shall.

Do you see the irony?? I mean, he gets exempted from almost all subjects and doesn't have to take the End-of-year examinations for them, his exam week ends a week earlier, and he's pretty darned bored.

And he's bored to such desperation that he actually downloaded and played AuditionSEA. Yeah, its pretty amazing and shocking that he did that, cos he's the Great Mugger (other than Ben) and is the only one who bothers to mug the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English for the English exam (which is the only subject he wasn't exempted for.) But even Ben has already slipped into the realms of gaming long ago, playing games like Pokemon and MapleStory (yeah i know, it sux.)

But to see the Great Mugger himself actually serious about playing computer games? OMG.

However, things were not to be. He quitted on the very day he started playing Audition. =( Why?
im serious lor, mugging is funner than games
- The Great Mugger


And thus the irony of exemptions. The people who actually do get exempted for so many subjects are either muggers (which is the case most of the time), or extremely miraculous (which hardly ever happens). But muggers have hardly anything else to do than mug, which is why they get such good grades.

But when you take away the need for them to mug by giving them exemptions, they descend into boredom.

In that way, you ruin them, make them spam and do other imperfect, uninnocent things like playing GAMES. How horrendous! Thankfully, the true mugger always sticks by his values and will not be influenced by such the temptation of such misdeeds.

CURSE YOU HCI for giving the muggers (almost) full exemption. It is supposed to be a reward, but their life is ruined by it. Their secondary school life is even more ruined by it, because you take away their need to mug.

And when that happens, they will no longer get an MSG of 1.0 and help us achieve a lower class MSG. >:[

Mug On, Muggers.
