My weekend is burned quickly cause I slept half my Saturday away. And trying to figure out the payoff table with sigalling for Game Theory. When it suddenly occurred to me that I checked the textbook, then I realised I left the book in my locker.sheesh.


I am now at Meiyan's fren's house doing Ethics project with Bobo and her. This "First American Bank of Georgia" case is such a pain. At my first scan, the main issue is unfair discriminaton. Then after borwsing tons and tons of website for news on BCCI, NBG, Clark Clifford and Ghaith Pharaon, the number of issues shot up explosively, linking BCCI with President Carter, Bank of England, PWC, Deloitte, Ernst and Young, Osama bin laden, money laundering, bribes..etc. my gosh, and as usual, I lacked focus and got myself carried away.
I'm the only one left awake now cause of my insomnia. It's howling outside so the windors and doors are producing funny sound. I feel so scared being alone in the living room. my gosh...i miss home suddenly.

I'm about to finish 1 packet of pepper mint mentos and Dorittos. I'm afraid I might get diabetes. And I am gaining weight. I've been munching on snacks every night cause I can't sleep and there's nothing much I can do besides project.

Oh dear, it's beginning to rain now. I'm scared!! I've moved myself to the room. I'm sitting on the floor, at the bed edge. I don't mind the dust at all now, at least I can feel Meiyan and Bobo presence but I am imagining things. It's kinda darker underneath the bed and I just frightened myself with my shadow.

I guess I'll be kept awake even longer!

I'm attacked by insomnia again!! It's really horrible not being able to sleep when I'm physically and mentally drained.
I spent the last 2 days and nights of my short term break with Bertrand, Cournot and Stackelberg. I spent unefficiently, most of my break, figuring out Industrial Organisation homework, which I submitted with quite a number of blanks.

So I come out with my one period Assignments-Benefits-Cost Model:

max ∑ β(X1) X1 − ∑ C1(X1) X1 − S

β: Benefits of studying
C1: Cost defined as time and energy spent
X1: No. of assignments
S: Sunk cost (money spent on books and notes)

FOC:

β + β1.X1 − C1(X1) = 0

Β(1 - 1/℮) = MC

*e: elasticity
e >= 0 since MB = -ve while Mc = +ve if e<0>


okays, I shall stop here for the time being cause doing assignments shouldn't be a one period thing. I might come up with my 2 period model if I'm sane and awake at 4am.

I'm doing math in the midst of Ethics class. I feel so bad cause Prof attempted changing his style of teaching after seriously studying our mid-term feedback, and I'm still not participating.
Actually Ethics is quite interesting. I mean if it isn't a core, I wouldn't even have bothered reading cases and finding out what norms and code of conducts are, and reading Randy Cohen every Sunday. Even now when there's this group presenting on DDT and their takes on ethical or unethical.

ahhh...there are still so much in the world to learn. Studying should be fun!

Grandad's 3rd Anniversary

Sarah says I have low AQ. And that's true.
There're so many things in my mind, I find it difficult to let go of.

I laid on Weihan's bed last week, lamenting at my regrets. I stared at the ceiling, and wondered how granddad spent his final moments, most of the time alone, staring at the same ceiling. He must have felt frightened and alone.

Photos of him are running out, I'm afraid memories of him will fade away someday.

3 years seems short yet the longest. I feel I just lost him but I've lost him forever.
Looking back, I am filled with so much regrets again.
How is he now?

Ah ta, I miss you..

Hi world! I'm using Weibo's laptop again in MA class.
I am so tired. I had only 2hrs of sleep. Insomnia is coming back.
I just had my mid-term and I screwed it!
Screwed Ethics paper yesterday as well. I can just die now.
And know what, I actually spent 30mins on this 1 FIFO questions and I even ask Prof if there's something wrong with the question,and he sniggered. This is darn embarrassing! I will never forget UNITS STARTED AND COMPLETED ever in my life.

Think Positive! I always laugh when Dexter says this. This is punishment for being so complacent.

Gotta stop blogging now. Prof is always looking at my direction.

I am so tired...
