My week has been lousy cos I spent monday feeling so groggy and I had something like Philosophy 101 to start off this morning. Confuscious says I should just lead a happier life, skip class to have more sleep.

I've been quite a good student. It's only week 1 but Meiyan and I have already started our Industrial Organisation project. Hopefully we'll do our presentation in week 4. To think we initially dreaded IO after scanning through the first lecture notes. Too much math!! But GM Lee has made everything okay so far, further enhancing my Microecons knowledge. And the wonderful part is that our project grade is Binary - 1 or 0. Full marks or nothing!!

I did MA homework too and attempted Equities but I'm stucked!! My brain cells are going to die from overworking this term. I have way to many formulas and theories to remember. I already burnt a homengous hole and I'm quite reluctant to buy the textbook. If anyone who is so kind and wants to give me an early birthday present, I want Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management, 8th Edition by Frank Reilly badly!! Apparently it's catered for CFA so it's natural that I can't solve some questions. maybe god wants me to prepare for CFA.

Monday is my self-declared Movie day. I need some recreation. So last week I watched License to Wed with Jan and ms ting and yesterday, I watched Hairspray with Meiyan. Nice shows, I must say. I really enjoy watching light hearted shows cos I can rest my brain and luagh for 2hrs or so. Why don't I be a film critique or apprasier??

I foresee myself being a walking zombie in 5 hours time. Good Morning Meiyan and Weibo!! Have a great time at MA later!!!

Hello World! I am feeling so sore now because 15mins ago, I spent $144.10 buying 2 textbooks!! High sunk costs!!

I have attended 3 classes so far. 2 more tomorrow and I'll end my first week. Meiyan and I are supposed to take 4 modules with our rest day on wednesday. But we pycho-ed Weibo to drop his EDA to take Equities with us so we accomodated to his MA timing, which means to say, we will have a longer weekend. Ms ting, im gonna send u my new timetable soon. my friday is cleared!! It seemed easy to get bids lately. What luck!! I can't feel lucky cos everytime I feel slightly better, bad things will happen. okay, I shouldnt think so much cos Monica(my tarot reader) says so.

I am unfilial granddaughter. She's in Singapore for the past week and I didn't visit her at all. Instead, she came over to my house to visit me. I intended to and I made plans to go over but somehow things just cropped up and you know, I'm very busy. And I always oversleep.
Grandma's health is deteriorating. I can't help but suspect the effectiveness of accupuncture. Everytime Grandma goes down for treatment, she returns feeling even more painful and tired. my poor granny. I don't know what I can do for her.

Last Friday, Kenneth asked me how my summer was. And I said, "okay". Then he replied "Don't tell me your holiday was so boring that it’s only an ok!?"
This struck me. I suddenly realize that four month isn't some short period. And my life has been pretty stagnant. Apart from doing Fixed Income, RA, working in Dairy Farm and taking leaves very often, clubbing occasionally, visiting the Tarot reader, bumming in Coffee Bean / Starbucks every Friday evening, shopping in BKK, queueing up once onut factory, fixing my teeth and cutting my hair twice in 4 days, I haven't done much.

I guess I have enough rest. If school doesn't start tomorrow, I wonder how much life I'll waste lying on bed or sitting in front of the television.
I welcome Industrial Organisation tomorrow and more math with GM Lee. I just hope insomnia doesn't find its way to me again.
Nite everyone.

Thanks to Jan, we got tickets to watch the Fireworks. And it's the VIP seats, that means we sat right in front and in the centre. Personally, I prefer last year’s display. It was much closer and I was “woah-ing” throughout the 20+mins. I probably expect too much this year.

There's something fascinating about fireworks that enthralls me. Like many good things in the world, you spend at great deal of time waiting and anticipating, just for a moment that last so short. It falls towards you and when you reach out to feel it, it vanishes to dust.
Beautiful moments just don't last that long.

Hello world!! Im in school now. This isn't surprising cos I've been coming back almost the whole of summer. I havent been blogging as well. Not that I'm that busy lately, I'm just doing more productively stuff.

So during my short hiatus, I finally settled my exchange application *Pray hard that I'll get it!!

I did my root canal. Not as painful as I imagine but the jabs were almost killing me. I squeezed my arms and eyes so hard that tears were forced out. Gonna visit the dentist again tomorrow. Guess I'm immuned to the pain already.

Celebrated Angie 22nd birthday. Time really flies. I havent really enjoyed my-being-21 days and I'm turning 22 soon!! So we met up really early on Sunday for din sum breakfast at Red Star. I finally found the fried banana prawn thingy which I last ate when Yunnan was still opened in TM. Everytime I try to describe this food to Jan, she'll tell me it's goreng pisang. But it's not. So after the hearty meal, we went over to Kbox and sang for a whole 5 hours!! I wonder when's the next time I can let my hair down at ease.

Another 6 more working days. FDQ annual BBQ approaching. Perhaps clubbing once more. And I'll await for Term 3.1 to start.
