ahhhh i’m freakin out over my audit presentation! dunno how to do the audit implications part!! hope my other grp members can help out on fri.

sian lor, today got AIS den got audit meetin again. haha quite funny tho, there was a double meetin in the GSR cos i hv to meet both the AIS ppl and audit ppl, so juz combine both at the same time. so talk halfway here, den go over the other side and discuss there. eh found out Jon used to be at P98. so cool.

sian lor, got ProfC’s email. think Fri will hv income tax quiz liaoz lor. shit. i planned to study for AIS for nxt wk, but now hv to study tax aso!! ahhh!!! die liaoz. think mebbe i shldn’t care? cos he shld hv more den 1 quiz, mebbe got 2? so if got 2 quizzes altogether, den this wk onli worth 5%. but AIS is worth 7.5%. so muz do betta for dat rite? aiyo FNCE each quiz onli worth 2.5%. so i shld heck care FNCE on Mon, and study AIS rite? sianz. ven shure gonna do betta den me for tax cos she read textbk liaoz! i hvn’t read textbk yet!! onli read his notes onli. den the deductions dat seminar i damn blur lor cos the stand-in prof sux. and i still hvn’t go thru the notes for dat. shit. think tonite n tmrw nite no need slp liaoz. dun wanna juz throw away 5% lydat, it could mk a bloody damn diff betwn and A- and B+. not dat i wld do dat well lah but still. mebbe it wld mk a diff betwn a C- and D!!! okie think i study tax, den AIS. no time to do FNCE den nvm lor, rite? aiyo but i feel so bad. how can lydat? ppl can do all, i muz do all aso. think pressure is good, motivates me to work harder. okie think muz stock up on Coke Light liaoz. i need the caffeine! man smtimes i wish i had insomnia, den pass all my sleepy genes to zh, so i can study and she can slp.

saw LC at the busstop today!! well not exactly lah. they were abt to cross the road, but hv to wait for the traffic light to turn. but b4 it could, my bus came. was debating whether to skip this bus and wait for the nxt, but heck lah, wait aso no use, not gonna be talkin much to LC anwieas, so might as well juz leave first. so…left first and met the cute mat from my office at the other busstop where i had to switch buses. haha he looks betta and betta each time i see him! :yum1 yes so we were juz flirting with each other. haha so give up LC for flirting+cute, the OC was worth it rite?

ooh suddenly cravin for dory fish/calamari olio(sp??). *yum* jiji was eatin dory olio today lor. so yummy. but i aso cravin for calamari. which one shld i eat? can combine both? muz ask the auntie. hehe nvm watever it is, i shall eat olio for lunch on fri!! ;grin1

hai yesterday’s FNCE quiz was screwed up lor. so theoretical, dunno wat IRR/NPV/PI characteristics, i nv study until lydat lor. sure fail 1. hai. luckily last wk’s one not so bad. din expect to do well cos few qns tikam cos my ans like not the same as the mcq ones. skali got 9. stupid adrian got 10 lor. sianz. bugger studied last min and came with onli like minimal formulae and still do so well. argh cant stand smart ppl. hai. if yesterday’s quiz sux, means 1 buffer left onli. and i plannin to not study for nxt wk’s one cos got 3 chpts and got AIS test the next day so i wld rather give up FNCE den AIS since FNCE i hv abt 6 more chances, but AIS only 1 more chance. if i give up next wk’s one, means my 2 buffers gone!!! means remainin quizzes muz score well!! sianz.

hm the FNCE proj so far so gd. the other 2 ppl seems to be doin their work. hope it continues. the china guy seems quite nice tho, but so quiet. and i tink i saw him today but i din recognise him. dat’s the prob with workin with ppl u dunno at all and nv seen him b4. yesterday was like the 1st time i saw him lor.

wahlau AIS today ProfM took my data flow diag (DFD) and show the whole class lor. it was a hw qn, den he arrowed Jon for context diag. den aft dat got Lvl 0 and Lvl 1, and er i actualli thought of volunteering my work. i mean, i knoe my DFD was totally screwed up cos i spent onlik like 15 mins doin it and i’m so illogical. but i tot it would be quite good mah, u paiseh urself nvm, at least he can correct the diag and i knoe my mistakes. but er din dare to raise up my hands. skali ppl think why this gal DFD so sucky still so enthu to show off her work? haha but swaysway he picked me lor. 4 other chio bu in the back row he dun choose, choose me. muz be cos i’m the ugliest. but nvm lah. at least he’s not the kind of prof who, when u make mistakes, grill u like crazy or scold u or suan u or smthin. he was quite encouragin. so aniweas it’s good lah, at least i see my mistakes. i wld nv hv known wat was wrong if it wasn’t shown. think nxt time i shld volunteer my work ya? even if it sux. hai. wish Uwe was around. think he can teach me DFDs since i think he was doin dat previously. bugger is hvin holiday in Vietnam/Cambodia now lor. argh. why don’t i hv a bf who’s an expert in IT/IT-related stuff?

FNCE is chim but interesting, so even tho i tk super long to understand wat i’m studyin, it doesn’t matter cos i like it. aniweas FNCE class has abt 2 cute guys? haha 1 is ven’s fren, who kinda reminds me of jx tho haha. but not bad lah. another sits beside me, took poor ven’s place cos he came in earli and i came in later and couldn’t chope an extra seat for her. this one isn’t cute, but there’s smthin abt him. oh there’s another 1 who looks like wx, but not as cute as wx haha.

31st Aug 2004 Tues
spent the whole AIS lesson stuck behind the PC chattin haha. so still dunno wat is goin on. but the polo guys are in my class!! woohoo! eye candy. 2 from my biz law class previously. they hv another 2 frens with them. dunno whether they’re polo anot. 1 looks like wai’s bf haha. the other 1 is damn cute lor. but got attitude problem. dun like the way he speaks up in class. so fake accent, and like tryin to act like mr know-it-all.

oh was sittin at the busstop waitin for my bus aft sch, when this ang moh lady came and ask me wat bus goes to the metro. i stupidly asked her, “which one u wanna go to?” i forgot dat metro marina closed, and metro tampines was too far. she said, does it mk a diff? den i said, “nono, nvm 171 goes to metro orchard.” so she said ok. 170 came and she asked the same qn again. i answered in the negative. 171 came and we boarded. i tried to tell the uncle to tell her to stop at paragon cos i would be stoppin at far east and can’t direct her. i asked if she wanted to go shoppin, and i told her muz go Paragon cos dat’s where the Metro is. she got confused. dat’s when i started to hv a sneakin suspicion dat she might be talkin abt the MRT instead!! cos they all call in the metro in their own cty rite? so i asked, do u wanna go to the MRT? she got confused, din understand me. den i tried to ask, “where do you want to go?” she said, “i want to go metro, den go home.” so i asked, “where is home?” she said boon lay. dat’s when i realised dat okie, it muz be the MRT she’s talkin abt. so in the end, i alighted with her at newton, even tho i could go all the way to far east. scared to abandon her lydat leh, skali she get lost. den since help her halfway liaoz, might as well go all the way. on the way to the MRT, i asked whether she’s here on holiday and where is she from? she said she’s from Ukraine. cool. but communication was reallie a problem tho. i asked where she and her husband is stayin, she said on a ship!! she said she onli graduated from institute last yr, so i asked how old she is. she said 23. and she’s married?! aniwaes she said she wanted to go shoppin, wanted to buy watch. so i told her to go orchard instead. shucks man, if she had said earlier, den i din hv to waste my transport fare tkin bus+mrt when can juz tk bus all the way to orchard. she asked abt chinatown and clarke quay/boat quay, and it was damn funny the way i had to explain to her, “boat quay dancing, drinking. day time not open. only at nite.” so i directed her to orchard, in the general direction of wisma and went on my way. hope she got watever she wanted and din get lost.

no more early dismissal from ProfC liaoz. so sad.

28-29th Aug wkend
finally! 1 whole wkend juz for slacking.

like seriously screwed up lor. 3/10. how bad is dat? totally ruined my mood on wed. felt so damn upset i wanted to cry. so scary cos i mean i’ve failed FA and MA b4 mah, and upset is upset lah, but i wun like want to cry or anythin. but it totally floored me. i din even felt like talkin.

worst thing was everyone else did betta den me and i so did NOT expect to fail. i mean okie i was bitchin abt it the nite b4, but aft sittin thru the MCQ paper, i tot it wasn’t dat bad. expected to at least pass. shit. even if it’s onli 5%. and it’s like a freakin MCQ lor. how can any1 fail an MCQ??!!

so aft lookin thru the paper again, some qns i circled the right ans but thought too much and changed it. some qns i guess i reallie din understand wat i studied well enuf. shit. even if it’s onli 5% and the other 5% i’ve secured an A+ for, still cant stand the fact dat every1 is gonna score betta for this 5% den me.

and the next is the midterm, which is a freaking 15%!! i’m startin to understand audit betta, but still not well enuf. i mean, okie even if i dun do as well as others, i want at least to not juz pass, but betta den a pass. B grade at least. shit. still got presentation in 2 wks. dunno how. so scared later ppl ask qns i canot ans. or i nv present properly. or wat. nv felt so kan cheong abt a presentation b4, even if it’s 2 wks away!!

i dunno why i’m lettin this one failure gettin to me. prolly cos i reallie din expect it, and i reallie want to do much betta this term. i dun dare to hope but i want to try for dean’s list! can 1, sure can get there, eventually. but i hv to get pass audit first. *sigh*

okie 3 wks of sch hv passed!! so 12 more to go? cant wait for it to pass.

Week #1

17th Aug Tue
Accounting Information Systems (AIS)! like wat the heck issit? ProfM spent the first half of the lesson talkin cock lor. he suan the ppl who came in late, tellin them dat they were in the wrong class, and when they said they saw their frens there, he was like, “u sure they’re ur frens?” den he asked the guys wat did they do in NS? he said the navy guys hv water-logged brains, too much salt water inside. the medics hv to save his life in the event he gets a heart attack. he said the logistics ppl sux cos events dat were supposed to start at 0600hr started at 1000hr instead. he only supports infantry? or wassit artillery? one of those cos he served in the army. think it was Australian army. He asked who supported MUFC and when ppl raised their hands, he said those immediately get a D. Liverpool supporters get A. he said we betta not wear MUFC clothes into class or we will get it. he suaned his mother as welL!! he said,”u knoe abt earthquakes? the tectonic plates moving and all? dat’s not true. it’s just my mother gettin out of bed. and u knoe the big bang theory abt how all the dinosaurs became extinct? it’s juz dat my mother got pissed with them and started moving around.” gosh. he looks reallie young and cute. but he’s married! for 7 yrs to a Chinese Singaporean tho he’s Australian. but they hv no kids. he says dat “kids are those u stuff in the fridge and kick them out when they’re 18”. he said he’s perfectly happy with his life and wife now. they dun need kids cos she’s his big baby and he loves her so much and dat’s all they need. owww so sweet rite? aniweas 2nd half of the lesson he started teachin. he drew 1 circle and put FA. drew another circle and put MA. i took out my foolscap and pencil to get ready to tk notes. den he said “Audit and Tax” and at the same time drew a nose and a mouth, and completed the face by drawin a big circle around all the features. i was like, wat the hell? in the end nothin to copy at all.

18th Aug Wed

19th Aug Thur
first free day of the first wk of sch and i had to go back to sch to do publicity for Leap of Life. bleargh. LoL is this campaign to create awareness abt organ donation. in the evenin, went to Outram for the orientation talk abt LoL. first time i’ve climbed up the same flight of steps at SGH since 14th Feb this yr. couldn’t recognise the Blk 4 lobby cos there wasn’t anymore cumbersome fever scanner and irritatin front desk. it looks so empty now. aniweas the talk was very informative, but the refreshments could be improved!!

20th Aug Fri
Income Tax & GST. ProfC was damn funny lor. he talked so fast, dat by the time 1hr passed, he oreadi finished his slides!! he gave us half an hr break, came back and talked some more crap abt one last slide dat he created durin the break, and let us off almost an hr earlier. BUT i had to stay back for some more LoL publicity stuff. *bish* stayed in sch till lik 9pm? wah so unhealthy cos had pizza for dinner!! it was like buy 1 get 1 free. tot there would be abt 4-5 of us eatin but in the end left 2 of us only. so i ate like mad lor. had to call other ppl to come help out. so horribly shagged at the end of the day.
