Walao FAIL

Last sat watch gran torino wif vic. It was a nice movie.

Have been feeling awkward wif ma teeth now. Cos can't pronounce S properli. So embarrassing especially during marketing presentation today, such that it lowered ma confidence level.

Yesterday's statistics quiz was a disaster. Clock was ticking, yet I had mental block and got stuck on calculations. Failed. Got 4/10.

Today's econs quiz was a little better.

Tomorrow got email writing test. Sian. I tot such exercise should be conducted on primary sch kids.

In writing letter/email, what to look out for? Think of P.A.I.B.O.C.

- Purpose
- Audience
- Information
- Benefits (for the audience)
- Objections (that your audience are likely to raise)
- Context (situational factors)

For many a times, I have heard language teachers saying "be concise and to the point" for sooooo many umpteen times. But when they email us, it is almost always full chunk of rubbish.

Spare me from all the bullshit.

Marketing presentation today... on Shaw Cinema....

Shimmery Shaw Unveils! Shaw Sucks.

Stress

Mon - stats quiz

Tue - econs quiz + marketing presentation

Wed - biz letter writing test

Sun - marketing report submission

Wed - oral communications presentation

Still got 4 exams to prepare! past year papers will freak me out.

Look at how this plant is destroyed at my hand (in class it's fun time!)

Serene looks like #$#%?

Yesterday sis was raking up my shelf and found this pic taken when I was primary 2 aged 8. My first overseas trip: Genting Highlands.

Going for dental soon and to airport study...

Marley and Me

Yesterday went on a tour of 3 cinemas - shaw house, cineleisure and shaw parco bugis. Not tat I haf nothing much to do, but it was an observation survey for ma marketing proj.

Settled down at de national library to proceed with report writing. Totalli stoned.

Had dinner at qiji - my favourite set no. 3 nasi lemak with chicken, otah, eggs and ikan bilis. I'll never buy de barley again cos it was tasteless! One fella still told mi because it was 'pure barley' and healthy! Wtf. If use rock sugar oso healthy wat.

Today skipped morning's econ lecture. Come to think of it, I have only attended econs lecture thrice for the whole of this semester. Sad case.

Attended stats class for only an hour.

Did own stuff before it's downtown time! Skipped marketing lecture. Similarly, not attended any of the lecture since the start of a new term after ma one week break. Happi ponning!

Had dinner with cal at ngee ann city's yoshinoya before we catch 7pm's Marley and Me at cineleisure. Nice nice movie. However, Marley and Me's impact is not as strong on me compared to Departures. The latter could really create a Fountain of Wealth!

Another day..

Another day is passing by. Deadline is getting nearer and nearer. So many assignment, quizzes, project presentation and reports and the most dreadful of all - exams!

Forgot whom I spoke to. Let him/her be Person A.

Me: If only I had 48 hours a day.

Person A: Then there'll be even more work to do.

Me: My god, I am holding other things constant lah! As what economists like to say "ceteris paribus!"

Initially wanted to go temple with mum today. But the weather was against us and we dropped the plan. So I continued with ma work =) Stress, but happy =)

Ma desk gets more messy with each passing day.

Chiong ahhhhhh

Suddenly I realised exam's less than a month away. Yet there's still quite a few projects left undone.

Returned home directly after class and started studying again.

In class when serene said she memorised for econs n got A, i got a bit demoralised. Cos i aren't good at memorising. So no A for mi? Haix... i shall try to understand de concept n write in ma own words?

Scribbled way too many notes tat i came across in de textbook till it turned out to be messy and undecipherable. god bless mi.

till now, ma heart is still yearning to watch marley and me, but it's soon gonna be over.

Departures

Had case presentation on priceline yesterday. Then my stomach was super hungry, so I popped by at JCO donuts in city hall to relax maself at one corner. Ate ma peanut and tiramisu donuts, with a cup of thai iced tea. sedap! then jeff called to say he's just off work so we met up over dinner at killiney. Put down ma heavy stuff at his house before that. There's this platform in his living room which I felt was quite cool. Could be used as a stage to practise for presentation =) But it was the bungalow opposite that caught ma attention... it belongs to one of LKY's family. I didn't know such a house exist in somerset. The pathway leading to the house is sooooo long...

Then i said: "Wah if tis is ma house den i have to walk veri long everidae hor?"

Jeff said: "Do u tink u still nid to walk if u live in tat house?"





There's this thai restaurant. We ate coconut soup (tom yam plus coconut base), phad thai, pineapple rice and green curry. In fact I was oredi full, but wasn't too nice to decline the offer? Lol.

In the end ma stomach got so bloated that i can't fall asleep the whole nite.

Today after class met lan for movie. Watched "Departures" at plaza singapure. Till ma eyes teary. Whole theatre could hear ppl sneezing their nose. Lol. Initial part may seem uninteresting and slow moving. But I could see a positive linear curve where it just got hold of everyone's emotions more and more intense.

Walked to far east plaza at 7 plus for dinner of fried mee goreng, tom yum and fried wanton. Bloated again. Cos since morning I onli ate pandan cakes. bumped into feng and i left home immediately.

Library

It's been this scene for now and the past weekends.

Slogging at national library.

Went temple halfway through ma study. Bought takoyaki from bugis junction before heading back to slog.

Reached home, continue slogging.

Reached home and mum bought this mini cake for mi. inside got pandan and raspberry. Expensive for its size, at 2.50 bucks. It brightened ma day though cos I've been yearning for cakes and all things sweet lately.
