Finance Horror, My New Bible, Movie Review & 15th Month Anniversary!

What do you do...


When you are 100% convinced your lecturer for BOTH your classes (Finance & Accounting 2) isn't the best you've got (possibly the worst) and honest to goodness... SUCKS at the whole teaching business BUT.... he's, like, the nicest ever???

GOSH.

I just had my Finance Midterms today and nearly died. I mean, I wouldn't say it was dead difficult... but it sure was hard!!

The thing is, I think I had sufficient study time (eventhough I studied just the day before...... well, it's not how LONG you study, it's how WELL you do it) in reading up my Finance notes and based on the exercises we did, I had my calculation down.

And according to Mr. Ravi (my lecturer), he says that whatever is coming out in our Midterms, is based on what we've done before in class.

YEAH, SURE!!!

Biggest joke EVER!!

Honestly, it's like he's trying to purposely fail all of us!

Of course, it's even suckier (don't think that word exists but who cares.. you get what I mean) that I've got brainiacs in my class who probably studied a whole semester before and researched the textbooks for extra knowledge etc.

STRESS!!!

You gotta understand... his way of teaching... well, let's just say I don't really learn much.

I don't understand half the things he teaches so I end up memorizing everything because there "isn't much time to understand it" (he says). Like... he is encouraging me to blindly memorize. He blames the short sem period because everything's a rush.

That still doesn't mean I shouldn't understand what the heckers I'm learning, you know!!! Heck, even the brainiacs don't understand and just memorize. But they are brainiacs... they are trained to do that.

I asked them to teach me and all.. I'm not kiasu. When I dunno... means I dunno and I need to ask people who know. But not much difference lar.

It's like... the blind leading the blind.

It's not like he doesn't answer ALL the questions we throw at him. It's just that if he CAN'T
answer our questions (we've got tons of questions because the way he teaches is far too vague to seriously get the point), he'll just ask us to... "memorize".

You tell me which lecturer will encourage you to memorize???!!

Honestly lor! My grades are SO gonna go down the drain at this rate!!! I'm freaking stressed because I can kiss good-bye being on the Dean's List already!

Maybe it's my own fault for taking Level 3 classes. Sigh.

Well, it's complicating... the whole ADP program thing and the subsequent subjects that can or cannot, should or should not be taken. If I try to explain why I'm taking advance classes so quickly (being in my 2nd year only), you all will probably start drooling on the keyboard.

But at least I pay attention in class unlike SOME people...


Ahem.


Tsk.

And THESE are the people I have in my Group Assignment.

No larrr. They only, like, shut their eyes for 10 seconds... Okay, Ben probably slept 10 whole minutes.

But that day I had a cam so I snap, snap very fast!

I also snapped someone else.

Introducing:

He's a sweetheart, really.

BUT..

Sigh.

I just don't flow with him I guess.
(and neither do my 10 other classmates...)

He CONFUSES me constantly.

Dawn (who took Accounting 2 before), is thankfully there for me during Acc2 Class. She helps me ALOT. I think I learn from her more than from...

But for Finance.... even a smart ass girl like her is struggling. THAT GOES TO SHOW PEOPLE!!!

Good lecturers/teachers are SO important.

Because of the sucky chemistry teacher I had back in highschool, me and Chem just totally DON'T GO! Hate Chem.

I'm a Physics Girl.

So anyway, I just want to conclude that I am basically screwed for both my subjects lor!

I really do try my hardest one, you know...

I've never skipped a class, I pay attention, I ask questions (a whole dang lot!), I do my homework, I study, I TRY to score in tests, I've completed my assignment (EARLY!!! I thought the due date was today... it's on Thursday)....

I think I am a very good student! And previously, my previous LADY lecturers were awesome and always rewarded me with an A and the worst... a BA!!

Only MALE lecturers gimme B and below.
(had 2 female and 2 male before)

Boooo to Dr. Loh (previous Marketing, Business Enterprise and Management Lecturer) and possibly Mr. Ravi. If I get less than a B in these two subjects that is. Since for Accounting 1,I did manage to snag a BA from him... only because I did Accounts in Highschool of course and therefore, understood mostly everything. Half the class failed by the way.

OOOOOOOKAY!

F YOU ACTUALLY READ ALL THAT MAMBO JUMBO I JUST WROTE... CONGRATS TO YOU!

I even bore myself. Gosh! Sorry I'm so boring.

I just finished my Midterms and have the whole Finance Fever and somemore I have an Accounting 2 test tomorrow...

Don't ask me what the heck I'm still doing online, blogging all.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a lighter note...

I HAVE MYSELF A NEW BIBLE!!!

It's such a pretty lil' thing :)

I lost my old bible and now Joe got me a really pretty one.


The cover is made of leather-ish material. Very soft!

And the pages are lined in GOLD!!

I REALLY, REALLY LIKE IT!!

THANKS JOEEEE!!!

Also, JEAN IS BACK FROM BANGKOK!!

Which means... NEW STUFFFFFFFF FOR MEEE!!

Yay. I can't wait to see her to goss goss and to collect my... SOUVENIRS.

HEHE.

I pre-ordered some stuff to be bought back because I couldn't make it for the trip.
(she went to honeymoon all with Hoong Sheng maaarr. So where can just barge in with them all! No manners only)

Can't wait!! Says she got me a really cute Baby T's, earrings and flip flops!

And I only passed her RM160/=.

This money is inclusive of Andrew's Polo Shirts I told her to help buy also.

MAN, I LOVE BANGKOK! I am SO going back there year end or next year!!

Movie Review

Die Hard IV

I personally think the movie is OKAY only. Maybe it's because I watched Transformers (twice) and then when watch this.. it's like.... YAWN.
I was starting to imagine the vehicles in the movie transforming to Optimus Prime already. Haha. Yeah, I'm lame. Fi-ine.
Oh, need I mention that Maggie Q's role in this movie is... FREAKING KEH-LEH-FEH! I don't know how to spell it but that's how to pronounce it. It's a Cantonese word, you bananas! (I'm one too actually.. haha). Anyway, it basically means, an extremely side character.
Even Bruce Willis' daughter had a better role. And they somemore put Maggie Q's name one of the first in line in the credits!
Oh, well. It's only due to her hotness.
Can't deny it. She's really hot lor.
Andrew watched the movie only because of her.
He's darn hamsap. Hamsap boy.
Anyway, it's OKAY only laarr. Don't know what's everyone shouting about. Transformers SO kicked their arses. I think the timing for this movie is bad... came out roughly the same time like Transformers. Make people like me compare the two movies only.

Ratings:

Reference:

Brilliant! A Must-See!
Exceed Expectations. Two Thums Up!
Satisfactory. Enjoyable.
Mediocre. Very Average.
Bored to Tears. Almost Slept.

And one last thing...

Hahaha.

He's so annoying sometimes... emo freaking fast. But I still love him <3


OKAY!!! WISH ME LUCK FOR MY TEST TOMORROW WHICH I AM RUNNING OUT OF TIME TO STUDY FOR BECAUSE I WAS SO ITCHY FINGERS AND WENT AND BLOG WHICH KILLED 1 HOUR AND THE HALF OF PRECIOUS TIME!!!
