Mathematical Typhoon 

A cyclone or hurricane that is named after a famous mathematician—like math, its presence never fails to instill fear in the general population.
Pascal is expected to hit the Philippines by early Monday morning—which happens to be a public holiday—after the mathematical typhoon had caused havoc in southern China.

Who you have, not what you have

It is the presence of God in your life, not your possessions, that makes you a success—stop chasing material things and start a personal relationship with Him.

Solo Six 

Enjoying the intimacy of the number six in the privacy of one's home—experiencing the joy of six without numerical interference from anyone.
Rex likes to indulge in solo six when he's not taking part in any extra-mathematical activity in school—he doesn't mind doing it without a partner, although a twosome would have been more fun and fulfilling.

Urbanly Mathematical 

Regularly contributing entries with a mathematical flavor to make up for the dearth of math words or terms on Urban Dictionary, which represent a drop in a sea of obscene, racist, and irreligious vocabulary.
Ian is a serial math contributor to Urban Dictionary, with six hundred-odd entries so far—indeed, he's urbanly mathematical, or maybe just "mathematically wordy," to say the least.

Jesus Is the Answer 

A seemingly naive or simplistic solution to one's life problems that Jesus can make the impossible possible—a crazy idea to the cynical or skeptical nonbeliever.
Be it in health, relationships, career, or finances, one can expect a breakthrough if one believes that Jesus is more than willing to turn one's life around—this is why Jesus is the answer to all of one's life's problems.

Singaporeans 

1. Europeans who lived in colonial Singapore.
2. Eurasians who lived in the British colony in the early 1900s.
3. Malayans who lived in Singapore when it was expelled from Malaysia in 1965.
4. Present-day citizens who are tolerant of other races and religions, and ready to defend multiracial Singapore.
Today's younger Singaporeans are a complaining and an ungrateful lot: most take Singapore's peace and prosperity for granted—terrorism, nationalism, and antiglobalization could usher them into a future they'd be unprepared for.
