1. Desperate in Physics , try this if you dare, it may work:P, who knows

The water of the earth's ocean stores lots of heat. an engineer designed an ocean liner that would extract heat from the ocean's water at Th= 10 degree celcius (283 K) and reject heat to the atmosphere at T1= 20 degree celcius (293K). He thought he had a good idea, but his boss fired him. Explain.

Desperate students can answer like this :

because the engineer sleep with the boss's wife. (logical answer)

2. Desperate in Add Math, try this then :

a. Expand this : (a+b) (a+b)

answer for desperate students : (a+b) (a+b)
(a+b) (a+b)
(a+b) (a+b)
(a+b) (a+b)

(a+b) (a+b)

b. Solving equation : 1/n sin x = ?

answer for desperate students :

1/n sin x = 1/n multiply sin x
= sin x / n ( n can be cancelled )
= si x / 1
= six
final answer : 1/n sin x = six = 6

3. Desperate in Biology , check this out :

question : Suppose you set out to determine if XO cats are phenotypically female, but you have no cytological equipment (i.e. you cant directly look at chromosomes). What kitten colours (which respect to orange, calico and black) would you look for in one specific cross colour? [8 points ]

desperate students will answer like this :hmmm, i would like to see if it had a vagina...

whoohoo...mission completed , answer all question!!! yesssss!

So do you all have given any silly answer in exams before? share it here...

Question in Moral Education, asked by my lecturer to me in class.
If you see a cat lying down on the road, hurt after being knocked by a car, what will you do?

How to live and how to die are two questions that have been puzzling humans since the beginning of time. The pursuit of happiness and the ability to die without fear is everyone's aim in life.
Bertrand Russell, the 1950 Nobel Prize winner for literature, has written a famous book called 'the conquest of happiness', in which he says that happiness needs to be conquered. You cannot expect to waltz through life reaping happiness without putting in some thought and effort. If you do make this effort, you can, given average fortune, attain happiness.
The conquest comes in three stages: first you need to learn about the principles that lead to happiness, next internalise them and finally put them into practice. It is ike playing golf. you keep learning new tricks. Although you know that you can never be able to play a perfect game,you keep trying.
For a good start, we must remember that melancholy is a passing mood. We must believe that our moods can change and we can feel better if we want to.
All of us have some hidden secrets, which occasionally make us feel guilty and shameful. yes, we all have done something unpleasant or said something we should not have said. Altough we now realise that we could have done better, we must stop worrying about these problems and be determined not to be bothered by them.
As we move on in years we come more and more aware of how much our survival depends on others. Our very existence from birth was the result of others' actions, and we survive every day in varying dependence on very many people. Without them, we just could not go on living. Whether we like it or not, there is hardly a moment when we do not benefit from what others do for us e.g. someone must have purified the water for us which we take for granted. And when we move into our later years, this becomes more poignant and needful, especially for the house bound and the bed-ridden.
Even Bill Gates, who seems to have just about everything, still needs people to buy his products. At birth, we needed the expertise and dedication of doctors, nurses, and all the staff of the hospitals; without all of them, we would not have been alive. Then, as we grow up and progress towards maturity, we are sustained by parents, teachers, and so many others.
We don't all age the same way. Many achieve a wonderful inner wisdom and peace as they grow old. They take a closer look at the people around them, and learn to appreciate them more, especially family members. They never fail to acknowledge the simplest service or gesture of kindness. They have a way of directing attention away from themselves and their ailments, even when in great pain. There is something really beautiful about such people. Very often it comes from a life-time of caring and compassion.
Others have an unfortunate sense of their importance, again the result perhaps of a life-time of ordering others around. These ten to have little happiness in their later years. They are still demanding to the point of being plainly unreasonable. But there have been exceptions here too; people who change their ways and attitudes, learn to smile and be agreeable, find some deep wisdom and, in time, come to appreciate the people around them.
Gentle people sense the good qualities in others, which veery demanding and impatient people cannot see. An important axiom of all great traditions is: relationship is all. how we relate with others is the key, on the one hand, to a pleasant and happy life. or on the other, to a life of anger and much personal misery. Deep down, we all have the wisdom to make the best choice; it is a matter of using that wisdom.
Is is hardly surprising that most of our happiness arises in the context of our relationship with others. So, it is vital that we must have good relationships with people, especially those who are in constant contact with us. We must not behave as if we are more important than everyone else; we must not get angry if someone does not completely agree with us or be impatient if we do not get instant service. We must be sensitive to others and allow them sometimes to get what they want.
Worrying is bad for health, and this can be serious. Worry causes ulcers and reduces our immune system to fight diseases. Pro-longed worrying can lead to mental depression. Mentally depressed people an have a suicidal tendency and too often their attempts are successful. Without good health, we can only die faster and cannot solve whatever problems we have. From experience, we know that all problems can be resolved; we have found solutions and we did not die. Worrying is useless. Why worry at all? The more we worry, the more we have to worry. The more we focus on our worries, the more they grow, till all that is positive is suppressed. Even if we have a life-threatening condition, we must face it calmly and a solution will eventually be found.
One of the keys to happiness is simple contentment and thankfulness for what we have. Happiness does not really depend on one's wealth. Even a poor person can be as happy -if not happier- than a wealthy man. We cannot be really happy if we continue to be greedy for more and more. As soon as we have acquired enough to cover our basic needs, we must treat the extra income as a bonus to help the needy. how much is enough?"
The trick is to compare ourselves with someone who is less successful, and we will immediately feel better. Do not get caught in the competitive treadmill and fell envious of someone's success. Feeling happy is the only true success. Without contentment and peace of mind, we will never be truly happy.
One of the biggest developments in the corporate world in recent decades has been the change from IQ to EQ as a criterion for personal progress. EQ has to do with emotional intelligence, with having control of our emotions, above all with being sensitive to the feelings of others around us. Empathy has become the name of the game. This means having a sense of where other people are, especially those close to us. The more we ponder along these lines, the more we 'feel' for people, the more compassionate we become.
Compassion has now become the true sign of personal maturity. Those without it, are classified as being still immature. If we want others to be happy, let's practise compassion. If people, especially those who are close to us, are not happy, we too cannot really feel happy. If we want to be happy, practise compassion. When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner peace and happiness.
We always feel nice whenever someone smiles to greet us. In the same way we must also smile when we talk to people, especially when we want to influence them to do things for us. A smile costs nothing but can be very effective. It can encourage people to perform better. A smile is a form of charity which we can always afford to give away. Happiness generates more happiness and sadness creates more sadness. No one likes to be sad. No one likes to talk to a grumpy person if he or she can avoid it.
Everyone is trying to maximise one's income all through one's life, spend carefully and save as much as possible. Accumulation of wealth is a life-time pursuit. We need to realise that when we die we cannot take it along and it is wiser to spend it before others spend it for us. As mentioned above, our survival depends on others; we could not have accumulated wealth without others; help. After we have more than we actually need, we must give back some to charity to help the unfortunate; otherwise we are busily dashing about aimlessly and life loses all meaning.
How do we live so that death will not catch us unaware? What do we do so that we don't leave this world with too much unfinished business? These are imponderable questions.
We get ready for death by beginning to live our lives as we should have been living them all along. The est way we can prepare to die is to begin to stretch our hearts to love ever wider and wider, to begin to love in a way that takes us beyond the natural narrow-ness and discrimination that exists within our hearts because of ignorance, selfishness, race, religion, gender and circumstances.
What makes it difficult for us to die is not so much fear of the afterlife or even fear that there might not be an afterlife. What makes it hard to die is that we believe that we have so much more life yet to finish. We had no control over how we were born but we can choose how to die well. Death is inevitable. We cannot avoid doing this last act.
So, we must do this as well, if not better than all the things we have done in our whole life. Remember to do what we need to do before it is too late. Say our confession, say sorry for whatever bad things we have done so that we can have peace of mind. Prepare for death by living more fully now. Work at loving more deeply, less discriminately, more affectionately, and more gratefully. Tell those close to us that we love them and death will never catch us like a thief in the night.
Studies have shown that most people in their dying days invariably think of the happy times they have spent with their friends and loved ones. No one wants to remember the unpleasant events. They only want to remember their good deeds so that they can die peacefully and with no regret.
The winds of change is on the go,
It is alive, never let go.
Feel it, taste it,
Caress it, love it,
Fresh blood, new faces,
Positive steps, no more traces,
\of days long ago.
No more a stranger in this gathering of joy,
We are brothers, come rejoice.
More hands to serve,
More heads to count,
More views to seek,
No more the lost sheep.
Build up community,
In this land of victory,
No one is alone,
In this world of love,
Where sharing and caring,
has set the tone.

This happened to a friend of mine when I was in form 4

Mod Maths teacher: So, why is this situation considered "possible"?

My friend who was not paying attention, subconsciously muttered out

Friend: Because it is not impossible, teacher..

On January this year, I had my Water and Wastewater Engineering first lecture and the lecturer (known affectionately as Dr. Shark) asked:

Dr. Shark: Who supplies the water to your house?
Student 1: Don't know...
Student 2: Don't know...
Student 3: (Keeps quiet)
Student 4: Indah Water?
Dr. Shark: (sarcastically) VERY GOOD! So Indah Water supplies water to your house. You drink the water supplied by Indah Water, huh? And then it goes back to Indah Water right?
