TitleWhat the friggin hell?

Who in the correct mind would send 4427 spam emails to my admin email account? Not only are they just spam mail, they are advertisements which are boosting the sale of viagra and still which will enhance the size of your *ahem* and so on. I was throughly pissed! How in the world did those idiots find out about my admin email address when it was not even in use? This explains the reason why my disk space suddenly shot up over the last few months even though there was hardly any site uploading activity. Now it is going to take me ages to delete all these unwanted spam mail because the email software installed on my domain only deletes a maximum of 10 emails at one time.

Whoever these spam companies are, I hope they will be unsuccessful in their business ventures, whatever it is. Preferably, I’d ask them to go and eat shit and die. It seems as though the anti-spam campaign which is held internationally seems to be failing. I still have to solve the mystery as to how these assholes got my admin email address when it is supposed to be kept private.

*Kicks the computer in frustration*

And now the server is so darn slow when I am trying to eliminate those spam emails. Why does these things always happen to me? Looks like those spam mail would be sitting in those folders forever until I have the time to eliminate the rest. Forget it. I am contacting my hosting provider to request for that email account to be wiped out. I have had enough. I have never felt so angry in my whole life…

On a lighter note, two of my tutors replied to me emails regarding my classmate’s appeal for promotion. Both brought me negative vibes as I slowly read through each one. It seems as though this is starting to look like a hopeless case and the likelihood of me not being able to see her in year 2 with me next year stands at a magnificent percentage of 0%. I tried questioning my Chinese tutor about the likelihoods of her being promoted and he gave me a flat out answer — “impossible”.

No more mood for internet surfing. The sight of my cluttered inbox really makes me want to hurl.

TitleLaunch of Version 22 of Domain

It’s high time for a redesign, so after much consideration I finally decided to load Version 22 when its initial lauch date was intended for November 20th. It has been a long time since I made any design in orange, so I decided to use that colour scheme for this design. Comments on this design are appreciated.

Having two days off from school since there aren’t any papers today and tomorrow. I am still brooding over how badly I had done in the promotional examinations, but speaking to Shishi and Yao Long on MSN last night cheered me up a little bit. Xian Zhi and Swee Wah also left me a few messages by the Tampines JC Webportal and I felt so touched, knowing that there are people out there who actually care. But I’ll still have to wait and see when the results are being released the following week. All I need is 2A and 2AO passes in order to get promoted to Year 2. I really don’t want to get retained.

On another note, I am starting to get really annoyed with the spam email which I am constantly receiving in my inbox, especially this particular one which I had received today…

“There appears to be a problem on this page:

When we click on your link to: http://e.darkillusions.org/
We get the error: 404 Not Found

We last examined your page on Tue Aug 12, 2003 at 09:38:00 AM EDT. If it has not been updated since then, the link is most likely broken.We discovered this error during our normal course of website content checking for one of our search engine clients.”

This email was sent by someone named Connie Davis who is representing Internetseer.com. Who are they and why are they examining my domain for? And how on earth did they get hold of my email address when I did not display the address on this domain? I just don’t understand why some online companies can’t respect my privacy. I have also received a spam email from one company in the past who informed me that they had obtained by email address by searching through the domain WHOIS records which are available since the email was unmentioned on this site.

Why can’t these spam companies just leave me alone? There is a specific purpose as to why I leave out my email address on this site and yet they go one step further to intrude into my privacy.

TitleOverbearing Relatives

An incident which happened today made me come to the conclusion that personal relatives usually say the words which are most painful to one’s ears. They just do not know the right thing to say. Each time I enter my grandmother’s house, either my uncle(s) or my auntie(s) always feel as though it is their responsibility to tell me what is lacking in my appearance, personality and yadda yadda. Let me pose a question. Is having long hair a crime? So why are they always complaining that my hair is too long for their liking, my clothing are too bright to match their standards…etc? All these do not even matter much to me since I hardly care about how I look. So why am I always compared with others? External looks no longer count in today’s modern society. So why do they keep bothering about my appearance?

For goodness sake, nobody is perfect. If they want me to match up with their standards all the time, I suggest that they go and take a long hike, preferably one that lasts for 10 years. I am me, myself, with my own preferences and personality and it is high time that they accept that. If something like that is impossible, I suggest that they go and find some other cousin to pick on and leave me alone.

After Uncle Daniel passed that hurting comment about me today, I stormed out of the room and started to kao beh (Translation: nag and complain) at the rest of my relatives. This time, I have had it. I told them everything I had in my mind at that moment. About, how they are constantly passing hurtful comments about me and how they are always controlling me. No, this is not a cry for attention. I am someone who has to make my opinions known. Why should I always sit there, keeping mum all the time and suffering under the way they are constantly comparing me with others as well as making comments about me? I do not have to take this from them and it is definitely time that I put a stop to all these nonsense.

To make things worse, sometimes they even discuss about me even though I am right in front of them, as though I do not even exist.

Above all, this is the absolute worst time that my relatives have to do this. I was already extremely agitated during the day due to examination stress and thus, any incident no matter how slight can easily provoke me. And the fact that the Physics Promotional Exams are tomorrow isn’t helping at all.

I would be missing in action for the next 2 days as I have to continue revising for my upcoming papers. Having Physics tomorrow followed by Chemistry and Mathematics on Tuesday. After those two torturous days end, it would be time to smell the fresh air.
