Again, back by popular request - A picture of my desk. Oh no, not again, some people shout, but don’t worry, I’ve cleaned my desk a wee bit, so it’s actually neater. Well, you be the judge.

Again, I have numbered my objects. Unlike my previous post about my desk, this one has less items on the table, and hence it’s less messy. So here goes:

1. 17″ LCD Monitor - My pride and joy. It’s my first time owning a 17″ and also a first time owning a LCD Monitor. It’s a LG Flatron L1750SQ, for those who are extremely inquisitive
2. A bong pipe - A water filter for smoking you-know-what (starts with a “C” and ends with a “s”. Has “annabi” immediately after “C”.) Well, if you can’t figure it out, you are not fit to read this blog.
3. Phillips Electric Shaver (HQ33) - I put it back into the box after use. Ah… see? so neat.
4. My Fender Stratocaster - It’s an electric guitar for the uninitiated. And yes, it’s leaning on the wall behind the door. Doesn’t mean I don’t take care of it.
5. Pile o’ stuff #1 - Scientific Calculator (Casio FX-570), my watch (and its case), Feadóg (the original Irish Tin Whistle). The green folder at the bottom contains all my Uni application stuff.
6. Pile o’ stuff #2 - Cloth for wiping the table, computer etc; and pack of Crazy Girls playing cards from Vegas.
7. Books - on the top is Business Statistics 101. Papers are notes copied from Shyuing on Law.
8. Speculum - This is the type that is used by gynaecologists. (To those who don’t know, a speculum is a medical tool for investigating body cavities. Add that up with what gynaecologists examine, and you’d get it, lol)
9. Pile o’ stuff #3 - PDA Charger Wire, SD Card holder, nail clipper. Well.. these are things you’d find on everyday tables.
10. Pile o’ stuff #4 - Scar lotion, various screwdrivers and picks, Dettol (antiseptic cream), Liquid Paper (correction fluid)
11. 9-Button mouse -It’s brandless.
12. Keyboard - It’s also brandless
13. Wasabi and Sony Memory Stick - yes, I DO eat Wasabi out of the tube. It’s nice, and you should try it.
14. Treasured Items #1 - Ang Pows (red packets) from my late grandfather (of which were given to me posthumously), bookmark from someone I love, I think.
15. Ornament - Chinese bronze fish ornaments. Nothing interesting, move along, move along. Oh, you want to know what’s behind it? It’s a microphone.
16. Treasured Items #2 - keychain from mom, Hungarian Secret Box (what’s inside is for me to know, and for you to never find out). Detachable sunglasses on top of the box.
17. CD Spindle - Every CD and DVD inside is burnt. Should have labelled some of them.
18. Webcam - ’nuff said.

The playing cards I have says this : Las Vegas’ Sexiest Topless Revue, Voted #1 Showgirls - Riviera Hotel and Casino.

In case you’re wondering what I use them for, I play them. Card counting in single deck blackjack’s my hobby now lol. I mean, it poises you statistically to win in a game of blackjack, so why not? I can never get the hang of poker or baccarat (that’s the game played by James Bond in the Casino Royale novel).

I’m kinda disappointed at the wasabi though. It’s not hot enough. Reason is this - it’s rather dark, meaning the wasabi is old when it was harvested. I’ve been putting sugar into it to make it hotter. And yes, if you’re wondering, sugar does make wasabi hotter - you can always try it out yourself the next time you’re in a sushi bar.

Mix sugar with wasabi and make sure the sugar dissolves completely. What it does (from what I saw on a documentary) is that the sugar opens the tastebuds (or something like that), so the wasabi gets a stronger blast of flavor, so it seems hotter. Ah, whatever, as long as it works.

Some people may wonder why I put antiseptic creams and food (wasabi) on the same table. I suppose it’s fine, as long as I am not squeezing Dettol out and putting it into my mouth (though some people wish I did just that).

The feadóg is a gift from ayjk, who’s studying in Ireland now. Ah… good friends, they’re for life. While a friend in need is a pest indeed. When drinkingcocoa comes back, we can have a feadóg party lol!

As for why I would have a speculum on my table, I dunno. Maybe I had a girl in the room when I took this photo… I don’t remember, lol. Besides, the speculum on the table isn’t wet, lol. But of course, this kind of speculums can come in very useful when you want to play and have fun

The bong pipe - my advice to you kids reading this blog is: don’t start on drugs.

And here is the announcement - I am going to give away my Fender Stratocaster (which is in mint condition), if you are the first to guess what does the “???” stand for.

Some might say that the Fender Stratocaster is amongst the best of the many electric guitars out there to choose from; but not every guitar in the world is right for you though so you might want to read up on the Fender Stratocaster before you invest in one. (And I’m giving one)

The clues as to what it stands for has already been strewned across this entire post. Read it carefully up and down. The clothes hanger may or may not be a clue, but it would be too obvious of me if the clothes hanger were a clue.

Here are some other aids:

• A Fender Stratocaster is an electric guitar.
• Read every section of this post. There is at least 1 clue in most sections.
• The ads on the side bar may or may not be a clue.
• There are many foreign things mentioned.
• What’s on my monitor screen is NOT a clue.
• Some words are italicized, or bolded for a reason, some are not.
• The Matrix IS a clue.
• Neo will not help you, neither will Morpheus nor Trinity.
• Tic Tacs are mint

Happy Hunting!
