I will survived!
Finally, updates after like so long... Anyway, I'm determined to create a new blog when I finish my exams and I want to make it a COOL one! =)
Well, little did I realise that I gonna finish my 2nd year of uni tomorrow! (although not exactly, since I stil have 1 more assignment & 3 more exams to go, but stil tomorrow will be last day of class for Semester 2!)
Oh well, I guess time really flies and it waits for nobody.
I just handed in my Australian Political Economy essay in today, the 2nd last piece of assignment that I got for this semester. I done the 1700 words writing in about 18 hours plus some procrastination in between of course (me will always being me!). Oh, and that time included about 2 hours of sleep. The reason being starting so late? Erm...I was busy with other assignments and *guiltily* was playing too much during the Spring Break, and that's why everything is kind of delayed. Also, I fell sick on Tuesday night so only did the readings that night. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed now... I wont be able to see it until next year since I'll be back in Malaysia and it'll posted to my place in Melbourne.
Thinking back, alot of my assignments this semester were finished this way. Stayed awake literally whole night in front of my pathetic laptop, typing, procrastinating, snoozzing... Well, I dont think it's a good thing at all!!! If mum were to know about this, she may be so pissed that she wont talk with me for days... Really hoping to change this bad habit of mine next sem! Really want to finish my assignments ahead and no more last minute rushing then rush for bus and train to go Uni and submit and stuff! But somehow, I just dont have the inspirations when it is long before due, oh well, perhaps that's only my excuses.
*Anyway, would personally like to thank my laptop here. Hehe... Despite calling you pathetic, I still love you very much. You helped me to pull through this sem, almost there, so please stand strong before I bring you home! I stil got 1 more assignment to go and I stil very much need you! Also thank you for co-producing a number of my assignments which me myself am very satisfied because some of their grades are pretty good, like H1...Haha!*
Ignore the paragraph above in case anyone is reading this (which I think there is none).
I really happy today because I got back my Finance assignment and I got 10/10. Also I get to know that my Strategies for Business & Bureaucracy presentation got a H1. So excited la!!! :D But on the other hand, I slept in finance lecture again, I pretty much slept the whole sem... =_="
Anyway, tomorrow last day of 2nd year Uni, 2 more hours of OB lecture to go!
Til then...
In Grief
I shall dedicate this post to my beloved maternal Grandma who had just pass away few hours ago.
May you rest in peace...
Sorry for not being able to see you for the very last time due to the fact that I was here...
You will always in our memories and I will always remember you for your kindness and love.
You always take the trouble to prepare lotsa food during festive sessions for us. Your Bak Chang, homemade Kaya, Pat Ting Thg, Fried Chicken, Vinegear Pork trotter, etc never fail to taste heavenly. I remember vividly when I was young, I'm always proud of your Kaya & Fried Chicken and tells everyone that they taste the best. That havent change and I shall always remember the taste for it is the taste of your love....
May you escape from all the sufferings you endure when you are alive and attain Nirvana...
I'll always remember you...
Chilly Winter Post
Here comes Winter!
Last few days was so cold, seriously. In the morning, temparature are merely few degrees and outside is so foggy. I heard that flights had been delay for 3 hours because of the fog. Imagine how serious is it?
Well, I finished my exams at last. But I'm not happy. I didnt do well in the 3 papers, especially QM2 and Business Economy in SEA. Quite worried about the latter now. Everybody are saying the paper is easy, I felt that way too, but I think among the 3 essays we required to write, I wrote crappy stuff for 2 of them. Damn it... Now I just hope that it wont turn out too bad... God bless me!
And laptop problem is driving me mad. Hate it! Now, adding to the problem, the spacebar button is not working well. =_="'
Most of all, I miss home so much... I'm waiting for 'another summer day' to come, so that I can go home. Isnt it pathetic? Talking about summer when winter just started...
Oh ya..yesterday was Father's Day. I ddint realise it until I read it from blogs. Sorry, papa, I dont meant to forgot you k... So, Happy Father's Day! I wonder you can read my blog in the far away land...
Pathetic
This is pathetic, absolutely pathetic.
My laptop broke down again! And this time is another problem, luckily it's not the saem problem I faced a couple of months ago, or else I'll be even more mad than what I am now.
Ok...on friday morning, I was doing my final revision for QM2 exam, then suddenly, the screen just went blank, black off. I thought the screen savers are kicking in, so I just move my hands on the touch pad but nothing come out, then begins my nightmare!
I google and found that this maybe backlight problem, I dont know what the hell is this but it's gotta do with the laptop monitor. The screen will just went black itself wihout any notice at anytime. =_=''
Today, I connect my laptop to another external monitor and this works! I admit that I'm really glad this work out because in case it's too expensive to repair, I still can use my own laptop instead of the desktop Uncle Christ got here, it's just that I have to connect it to this monitor. Meaning that I only can use it here, in the spare room, because the monitor is here. I cant freaking use my laptop or do my work in my room!
Well, perhaps it's a good thing. I cant lay on my bed lazily n do my work anymore and maybe working here can be less distractive for me. God knows how slack I am!
Btw, I did pretty bad for QM2 exam. Sigh... The questions are quite alright though but I dont know why I couldnt answer them well in the exam. I think I'm not well prepared... Hope it's not too bad... May God bless me!
People in exams, all the best! Best of luck to me as well for the rest of my papers.
Chinese Politics on Wednesday and Business in SEA on Friday. I shall pray that I'll be more focus on studies and no more slacking and lazying for myself. God, please hear my prayers and make me strong enough to stand the temptations!
I miss Malaysia so much...
Out of the Exam Blues...
I'm in the midst of revising QM2, but suddenly feel the urge to blog about this!
Ahem...Drum Rolls pls!
The Prime Minister of Malaysia, Abdullah Badawi is going to remarry this saturday (9th June 2007). Well, I suppose many people had knew it, the news is out yesterday, I'm late I know...
Actually, I heard about this earlier this year from my uncle, but I seriously thought it was just a rumuors, but then until recently I was talking this with someone (my fren's mum), only I think it might be true since so many people in KL is talking about it.
True enough, when I start reading my daily dosage of blogs yesterday night, every blogger is talking about it and the date is confirmed.
Btw, Pak Lah's new bride is his late wife's sister-in-law,which I think it's kind of weird... I cant really believe this can happen in real life, it's like some plot you can often find in movie, soup dramas, etc, but now it's happening, in Malaysia somemore! There's even plp saying that Pak Lah had been eyeing on Jeanne (the soon-to-be wife of his), even before Endon (his late wife) pass away. Erm...but for me, I think there's perhaps some sort of political agenda involved behind all these.
Anyway, enough of 'bitching' about others. Gotta go back to my revision now. Exam is 2mr 2pm.
Til then. Wish me all the best people!
Semester 1 coming to an end...
Or should I say Semester 1 had ended???
Well, teaching period is over. The coming week will be a SWOT Vac aka study week. For your information, SWOT=Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat!!! Management 101, people! Then comes exam month...
Phew~~~ Time really flies man... In fact, quite a number of my friends here in Melbourne, to mention few, in no particular order, Glorie, Siew, Hao Ern, Jey Sern, Veronica, Cai Qin, Weng Kiat, etc, these people are graduating next year. Oh My Gosh! For me, there's like another 2 more years to go! But they will be attending graduation then searching/hunting for works or even go in post-grad studies!
Not forgetting, a lot of my buddies in Malaysia are graduating also... It's like all people will be getting a job then earning their own bucks and in contrast, me, still studying, rushing assignments and spending parents money! Cant imagine that seriously!
I think I'm getting away too far... Btw, I really had a good outing on friday night. Went to this Japanese restaurant on Toorak Road, near Chapel Street, to have dinner with some of my Business & Economy in SEA tute mates and their friends. They are all nice people, really enjoyed the food and the chat as well. Then, went back to the city for drinks in Manchestar Lane, a Jazz Bar I supposed, nice music they have, despite it's slightly noisy for chating.
Anyway, gotta go back to reading the materials needed for my IAT essay now. Super lag behind time edi...
Til then.... Jia You for exams everyone!
Trying to get out of the blues...
LOLz... I somehow decided that I'm not going to think about this anymore. I had tried everything that I can to see whether my marks can be improved, but sadly all in vain. But, I'm relieved, at least I know that really nothing can be done anymore. (I talked to my tutor & called my lecturer k, and yet they didnt do anything. I believed if there is seriously room for my marks to be upgraded, they'll do it, because one of my friend's is upgraded.)
So, life have to go on anyway... Let the bygone be bygone... (I doubt how long will this take?)
Forget about this and pia/chio for final exams! Aza Aza Fighting! Kambateh! Jia You! Teruskan Usaha! Whatever la...
Perhaps this is fated la... Or it's a lesson for me to not be over-confident at times and dont be a last minute 'hero' anymore?
Had been not productive at all since Tuesday and I'm not letting this to continue ruining my life. I must at least start to read the sources for my essays and return the books because people requested them. Argh... But again, I wonder when I'll start?
I'm complicated...
