couldn't screenshot this properly, it's actually fireworks! haha when i turned 80 the gamemaster actually sent this package to my mail (yes there's mail in WoW) and inside got fireworks
a bunch of level 80s lining up to take picture. haha
we were on our way to the enemy cities to complete some achievement.
killing the Alliance leader
whee.
anyway, i'm still at home, on MC till tomorrow, but only going back on thurs cos those ppl in camp have been there since last monday and they're getting 2day off.
Yes, my ownage MC was 6 days! cos i was sent to TTSH to check for h1n1 and since i had the symptoms i think the doctor just spam the MC. but i didn't have h1n1 la.
anyway it's quite ridiculous there are like hundred new cases everyday.. sooner or later this is gonna be a normal flu strain and scientists are gonna tell us 'hey! we found a way to prevent it from mutating into a more deadly strain of bird flu ! or sars! or anything deadly!' which is why we're so scared of it in the first place right. Cos it's so contagious and it may mutate.
Even news says so.. today's 'headline' news about h1n1 (remember when h1n1 used to dominate the front page? now it's relegated to size 12 in the small column on the left of ST front page) is "H1N1 country listing stopped"
which is basically saying yknow last time they say avoid mexico... blabla. all those alot of h1n1 one. now.. they abolish the list! why? cos "it becomes less useful, as the whole world, including Singapore, sees more cases".
So in other words.. i think may come to the point let's say country A has 1234 cases. then it's on the list. then one day... singapore actually has more cases than them! so omg howhow. migrate there.
Another change in attitude thing: (from ST)
"For example. the definition of who is regarded as a "close contact" of an H1N1 patient has changed considerably. When it first appeared, a close contact was anyone who had been near the infected person. Now, it is defined as anyone who has been within 2m of an infected person for an hour or more without any protection, such as a mask. Soon, it will be anyone who is within 5m of someone who has touched the railing that the person who has waved hi to the H1N1 patient grabbed on the MRT"
Haha ok i added the last sentence in. but it's true isn't it?
Anyway for Singapore as of today have 629 cases, and last night got 30 new ones (Source : ST) (last night? so yday morning leh) But previous day was 100+ ? Not v sure. but let's say everyday has 100 new cases. It will probably get worst (says everybody), so let's say every week the average increases by 100.
Week 1: 100 x7
Week 2: 200x7
Week 3: 300x7
.
.
etc.
Singapore's population is 4.6 million (i think) .. so how long will it take for the whole of Singapore to be infected ?
LOLOL I JUST CREATED AN A LEVEL MATH QUESTION. if this comes out for A levels must pay me k. copyright.
ok la see i play WoW still got time to read newspapers, blog, so good right. so not addicted. lalalala.
OK NO IT'S COS WOW GOT SERVER MAINTENANCE NOW AHHH LET ME BACKKK.
/slashwrist
k i'm kidding i'm fine really. it's good to take a break also. kinda tiring to play the whole day yknow! time for dinner now and after dinner.. probably go play guitar or read more newspapers. chowz!
p.s.

Answer: 114 weeks! it will take 2 years for us all to get infected! got enough time to set up a house in some safe location (like antartica) and set up a business there! (like igloo construction)
1 x 100 x 7
2 x 100 x 7
3 x 100 x7
Week 3 = (1+2+3) x700
Week x = (1+2+3+ ... +x) x700
So to get the answer we need to take 4.6mil divided by 700 and find what is x in (1+2+3+...+x)
4600000/700 = 6571 (rounded down)
x = 114!
(1+2+3+... +114 = 6555)
ok i'm sure there's some formula to find it faster but i basically manually added 1+ 2 + 3 until 114. lolol. if you find out the formula do let me know. k chowz.
p.p.s OMG ok after winsome tagged i suddenly remembered the formula for this. This is just an arithmetic progression! (AP) . haha ok damn easy now. ok yes this is damn easy for an A level student you better know how to do if you'r etaking As.
