boo hoo hoo

2 down, 2 more to go!

Monday's macro paper was a total disaster. Not enough time for that 6 essays to complete, cramped up in a corner of the room with dim warm spot light, mind was nt very flexible at that point. That's it! What's one grade lower than distinction? oh, i guess is credit huh. haha.. oh well. At least i got to know the econs ancestors better now. It was totally like a writing marathon back that day. Friedman, i didnt get to complete your fooling model. New keynesian, i drew your AS curve wrongly. & the calculation qns i should score, ended up in the drain despite getting it right all the time at hm. careless careless careless! roars out loud!

& today's risk management paper. Guess its somehow less demorealising that macro paper. Did have the time to check through the whole paper. Similarly, get to find out many mistakes again! Rembered a formula wrongly, there goes all my values in the derivative market. and SPI fair value, i dont rem seeing you in my notes during that 3 hours, but rang a bell after that. & those 2 marks each mcq, here abit wrong there abit wrong though most is in the practice qns paper. oh well oh well..

10 more days to go...

& lots lots of stuff to look forward to.

加油加油!
shall not pin too high hopes, if nt the pain will be worst when you fall. Just do the very best.
Good luck to all!

Promised dav & clau to spent time with them today :D Guess it shall be a rest day for me

Declare the War

Guess this would be my last post till after exams. Time seriously pass too fast, it just seems like ytd being the first lesson of my sem 2. But in fact, tml is the last lesson. and in less than 2 weeks, i will be taking the final exams. Got a strong feeling my HDs will be flying away further from me this time. Everything seems very new to me this sem, no tut done in class, and of course, things getting tougher. Just keep my fingers crossed, target for this sem is at least all Ds.

26 Oct Macroeconomics 2
28 Oct Risk Management
5 Nov Business Finance
7 Nov Price Theory

Ytd went prawning with uni mates. it was fun and had a great sense of satisfactory. Remembering the first time i went, 3 rods, 3 hours, only 1 pathetic catch. and my rod sharing with bro caught none :( At least last nite i got a handfull of prawns after some expertise guidance from the pros. haha. final result: 6 rods with 70 catches (:

Claudette popped by my house just now. and she is always so adorable, wish to capture every movement of hers. She even brought her terapin over to my house to show us.


Declare the war begin.
Less tv, less online, less outing, less playing with clau/dav, less slacking
work hard!
all the best to me.

Actually, until today, im still wondering if i wan to have birthday bash for my 21st. If im going to plan one, i guess its just goin to be a simple gathering of all my family/friends, coming down tgt to have a good meal tgt. should i??

中秋节快乐

8月15 is here again! Missed those good old days where my family and childhood friends would gather round at serangoon blk 147 field or the big pond at bishan park, play with lanterns, candles, eat mooncake accompanied by the big round moon. But ya, those were the good old days.

AuntCindy brought some yummy mooncakes for us! the snowskin one is yummy. its greentea with icecream champagne in it. and for the traditional one, its custard with single yolk. but the milky taste is way too strong for me to take it :x & of cos, i only love snowskins mooncakes (:



my mum dug out all the lanterns bought over the years, and sure she do love it alot. and she suggested to hang some out at our doorstep, the lantern festival mood. haha.. but it sure looks nice. for a moment dad thought he went to the wrong doorstep when the corridor lights weren't on yet. haha..

Thurdays nite, Children's day! Dayspring kindergarden organised a lantern festival celebration at sk park. me & bro went to get into the mood with davian and family. a long time ever since we get to see huge gatherings playing lanterns and candles tgt, lighting up the whole park. The kids have handmade lantern competition and i can say many are really nice! super creative ones. Davian's lantern gt consolation prize! haha..
