kit kat

taking a short break from memorising accounting formulae right now. exam is in 2 days time, and i wouldn't say i'm prepared for it yet. not much things to practice on, just tutorials, which doesn't help. my first exam in a long while and i don't know what to expect honestly, and i'm scared. expect the worst, hope for the best.

i've got a sudden craving for ruffles bbq flavoured chips...

i desperately need to run...

traffic lights are not something F1 drivers normally look out for...

and many's tagboard has become a chat window about her "engery" hahaha so folks, lesson learnt here is don't make silly typos while blogging ;) sorry many...

we're all waiting for something... something to come our way

unbelievable!

so after 3 days of waiting, i've gotten my phone back from samsung. and the problem still existed... so i thought that i'd have to go down comcentre and ask for a new phone. then the lady tried and put in another sim card into the phone. AND THE LIGHT DIDN'T COME ON!!! hmmm... fishy fishy right? so i made my way down to comcentre in the end anyway, and the lady at the counter tried her sim card as well. so it turns out that the sim card i've got is "special". special in the way that it makes my phone light up continuously like chinatown during chinese new year. so i've got a new simcard now, which will be activated only after a day. so for all this... probably spent 15 bucks, from all that parking and petrol driving around. not to mention time!!! crazy man... i just hope the problem goes away and i don't have any more problems with this phone. then... maybe i'll get another samsung phone again hahaha being upset is tiring =p

and i've got a new motto for derek... smoke less eat more hahaha

i hope the rain stops soon too... otherwise josh and many will be having their wettest time ever on sentosa =p aiyah play vball in the rain lah! hahaha

not a good start

since i'm munching on my fruits now, i decided to blog before i start work on my maths again.

the start of school has been... highly jerky. according to my maths lecturer, when u differentiate speed u get acceleration, and what do you get when u differentiate acceleration? a jerk. or jolt. an instantaneous force hahaha something interesting to take home from maths class. in the past month, i've learnt in ONE page what F maths students at A lvls learn in 20. are we supposed to remember everything we learn or something? it's really quite demoralising knowing that you've learnt how to factorise stuff with that damn formula, but then you spend half an hour remembering it and remembering how to apply it. doing an hour of differentiation makes me tired now. half an hour of integration has about the same effect. curve sketching is really CURVE sketching. never seen such bizarre looking "curves" in my life hahaha

accounting, in my opinion is easier than econs in j1, but i'm supposed to be learning stuff at 3 chapters a lecture, it's going way too fast to remember everything. u give me 2 terms instead of a month and i'll be much much better off. i mean... my exam is next wednesday!!! how freaking fast is that?!?! thank goodness i don't have to take any maths exams at the end of this term, otherwise i'd be thoroughly screwed. i don't want to think about what it'll be like at the end of next term when biz finance comes into the picture. really will be hell.

the start of school really hasn't been a good one.

i got a new phone on sunday! the new samsung soul. it's really quite a nice phone, both to use and to look at. colours are really nice, and the touchpad is easy to use! unlike some other phones with touch sensitive panels that i've tried before. 5mp camera with antishake, althought i think it's not really antishake... just an image stabiliser, cos there's about a half a second lag time hahaha bang and olufsen speakers which make the sound coming out sound good too! but the only problem is... the screen lights up every 30 seconds when the damn phone is close!!! sucks the juice out of my battery. damn bloody irritating, so tomorrow i'm going to go to the service centre to get it looked at. hopefully they give me a new phone. they should! i only got this phone on sunday!!! ggrrr...

haiz... oh well. finished my fruits and a game of freecell already. wendy's exams are over, although i'm not exactly sure how well she'll do because she was really distracted during this exam period. but she's got a packed schedule of mahjong planned ahead. have to get used to seeing her alot less again. just like BMT. just that this time around, i'll have to study on weekends too. calculus here i come!

happy birthday many!

yesterday night i rushed home after my accounting test to get many's cake and present, then i chiong-ed down to raffles city. thanks goodness there was space to park so i didn't have to queue hahaha anyway we went to curry favour at stamford house. nice short walk from RC. it's a nice cosy place, and the curry isn't hot at all hahaha guess japanese prefer wasabi to spicy curry. they just like the taste i guess. it wasn't all that bad. she liked the cake i bought!!! hahaha white chocolate macadamia from secret recipe =) luckily i decided to buy the half recipe one instead of the full recipe one. couldn't really finish the half recipe one hahaha

after that we made our way to paulaner brauhaus at millenia walk. first time there. managed to get a nice table right in the corner for all 9 of us? oh wait... 11 hahaha and of course the best part was, some other guy was celebrating his birthday there too! so we sabo-ed many to go up to the stage and sing with him!!! hahaha it was quite hilarious... trying to yell her name to them. mandy, mary... i had to spell it out for them before they got it =p then we just started taking really spastic photos of each other. mr kwee has a really unique talent of taking people with funny faces.

after that louis, tini, vig, kwee and the birthday girl came over to my place for mahjong. vig can play man... just needs some help now and then. the combined powers of me and tini managed to win money in the 1st round hahaha played until 5 this morning, at which vig and many had both fallen asleep =p

have a maths test on thursday... need to mug more. going to eat my fruits now, maybe i'll study tmr hahaha

HAPPY 21ST MANY!!! many blessings upon you this year. GPA 4!!! hahaha

so dusty...

sorry for not blogging since my birthday. been a mixture of both lazy and busy hahaha and koon i do read your blog... just don't tag that's all hahaha =)

i'm a month into school already, and it's hard to get back into the rhythm of everything. sitting down and studying is still difficult. although i have to say it's much more so for accounting than maths. reading so many words and trying to absorb them all is definitely more difficult than just looking at formulae and numbers hahaha i'm lucky that there's no maths exam at end of this term, because accounting is going at an insane pace. i mean i'm covering the WHOLE textbook in 5 weeks!!! damn freaking crazy...

the atmosphere in ntu is... right now rather conducive to study. but can't say for when the main term starts when there'll be people everywhere. the new canteen is nice! just that it's always full at lunch time, because it's much nicer than the canteen in the south spine hahaha and of course it's air-conditioned, and the food is still rather cheap! that's on the upper flood. downstairs there's macs, subway, canadian pizza and old chang kee all at reduced prices!!!!!!! cheap fast foooooodddd hahaha i'm always trying to eat upstairs of course, but sometimes you just gotta eat and there's no other choice.

got my accounting presentation today. really fast if u ask me hahaha 4th week of school and i've got a presentation already. i'm just telling myself that everyone else in class has to do it, and whether i'm right or wrong it's all just part of the learning experience. i just hope i'm not too embarassingly wrong hahaha have to wear formal today, and the problem is i've got maths tut at 930, and my presentation is only at 4!!! just hope i don't sweat too much inbetween hahaha well at least the seminar room we use is always freaking cold!

wendy's moved house!!! thank goodness! at least now she's got her own room and can sleep and study when she has to! and it's a nice place! 2nd floor, and it's rather breezy too! right next to the fitness park, with 7-11 and convenient stores nearby! really really good find =)

i just ate 3 siew mais! haven't eaten those for a long time hahaha but after eating need to go toilet =X my stomach only waking up now hahaha
