Paintball and the ultimate losers

Last Saturday: paintball! 26 MBA student decided they had enough of each other and it was time to do some serious slaughtering. In teams of 4 or 5 persons we managed to trash each other good. Yellow paint all over the place. Good fun! I managed to keep my clothes pretty clean as I was mainly shot in the face. This sounds way worse than it was actually; we had some good masks.

The British team managed to take home the first place and earned themselves eternal glory. This, however, only strengthens my suspicion that they actually are part of the British special forces and were hired by the London Business School to infiltrate INSEAD. Damn you, Brits!

For those who are interested, I am on the photo :)

About the losers mentioned in the post title, this has nothing to do with paintball. Last Friday I went out for some drinks with some fellow students (who would have thought that??) and we ended up in a bar full of expats. You can encounter the losers I will talk about in most South-east Asian countries, but in Singapore they are kind of rare. However, this place was crowded with them. As you might have guessed, I'm talking about the guys that think they can just buy a girl because they have an average amount of money or just because they are white males. They are to ugly and/or to stupid to find a girlfriend on their own and will lower themselves to become the biggest losers on this planet. The girls were very obviously not having fun and these assholes probably didn't even notice it. One more time: you are the ultimate loser! I always have the unstoppable urge to tell them how I think about them so I managed to almost get into a fight (which I would have enjoyed greatly, and yes, I am the biggest guy on the photo), but then again, that might not be the best thing to do in a place like Singapore. It really pisses me off.

The deadline for putting your CV in INSEAD's system (for the CV book) is this week. This means that everyone is very busy with writing, rewriting, rewriting again and proofreading CV's for dozens of other students. It is amazing how much time you can put into just 1 piece of paper. It's pretty hard to convince everyone that these INSEAD students in Singapore are the most promising business men and women that ever set foot on this world :)
