Judgement Day

April 9th, 2008 by benleong84

What am I doing up at this hour, with a paper in 8.5hrs?
I hope I make it this semester :}
I can afford only disappointment, not failure.

Woman on the bus flicking her hair all around like she were in a shampoo ad.
Strange Mcdonald’s staff picking at our peanut cake.
People watching.
Nerdy kids and their noisy handphones.

After the exams, I’ll be back with the 1 picture a day from the VQ.
I’ve been feeding the cats more often these days, but won’t be for the next 1 week.
Will they still remember me?

Will you?

All the best for Macroeconomics, everyone.
Take your calculator and ruler along. Don’t forget now.

When all this is over, I’m going to miss studying again.
At least until the holiday ends.

Now what was the formula for marginal propensity to consume again?

Yesterday I struggled;
Today, I overcome.

Eccentric old man on 61

7:28pm

Location: My bedroom

Mood: lethargic

Music: Jason Mraz - Please don’t tell her

Sat in front of an old man on the bus to NP this morning.
Everything was normal, for the initial 30 secs of me boarding the bus.
Then the old man whipped out his handphone and started his conversation.
Is it me, or do all elderly folks speak like they’re at a rock concert?
He goes on telling his conversation partner about what he’s doing for
the day, what he will be doing, and what he thinks of what he’s doing
and going to do.

Normal, right?

Right. That’s what I thought too.

10 mins into the journey, it dawned upon me that he wasn’t even
talking to anyone on the other side of the line. He just went rambling
on and on… He didn’t even pause for a second to take a breather.

That was one long 15min monologue.

Thank God he got down at Queensway.

I’m gonna run tonight.

PLEASE DON’T TELL HER - JASON MRAZ
I hear she’s kickin’ ass across the board and rock two
hundred thousand higher scorer
Just in time to save the world of being taken over.
She’s a warrior
I couldn’t play again because the game it never ended. it never even landed on the can
And never let me in to spend my quarter.
There’s no love for me no more.

Say it isn’t so
How she easily come, how she easy go
Please don’t tell her that I’ve been meaning to miss her.
Because I don’t.

She was the girl with the broadest shoulders
But she would die before I crawled over them.
She is taller than I am.
She knew I wouldn’t mind the view there
Or the altitude with a mouth full of air
She let me down and doubt came out until the now became later.

Say that it isn’t so
How she easily come, how she easy go
Please don’t tell her cause she don’t really need to know.

That I’m crazy like the rest of us
And I’m crazier when I’m next to her.

So why after the all of everything that came and went
I care enough to still be singing of the bitter end and broken eras.
I told you I don’t but
I am only trying to be the best with my intent to cure
The rest is sure to lay me ease the plural hurts of the words of reverse psychology
That’s easier said
Easier than done
Please don’t dare tell her what I’ve become
Please don’t mention all the attention I have drawn
Please don’t bother cause she’ll feel guilty when I’m gone

(f*** you)

Because I’m crazy like the rest of us
But I’m crazier when I’m next to her
And it’s so amazing how she’s so self-assured
But I know she’d hate me if she knew my words
Do I hurt anymore
Do I hurt, well
I don’t
I don’t
I don’t

I went for a run this evening, it felt great.
Mt Faber was a killer on the way up, but the view at the top made up for it.
I could see my place from up there, even the Singapore Flyer at Marina South.

Just caught Blood Diamond yesterday. What a brilliant movie.

Dug my head deep into my commercial law text. Regrettably, I didn’t do the same for today.
Chapters 6, 7, 8 tomorrow to be cleared. Will wake up earlier tomorrow to read up some on chapter 6 first.

On the way down from the hill, I caught a glimpse of an elderly couple.
It was a heartwarming sight. Both of them hand in hand, taking a walk up on Mt Faber. I mean, how many married couples still do that?

I’ve also been pondering about regrets.
How many of us would relive our lives one more time again, just to make a difference this time?
We all know about that phrase, ‘You only live once’.
But given that chance.. I would, just to go back in time and do things right. Just once. I wonder how many things in I’d change in my life.

Would you take that chance?

Noodles boiling! Time to eat and scoot to bed.
Commercial law here I come!

15 days.

Last day of sem 2

March 27th, 2008 by benleong84

This semester passed quick!
Got our assignment results today.
Pleased with our work, elated with the consistency so far.
Now I’m motivated to study even harder for the exams, which are nearing in 2 weeks.
I have set my standards and expectations for myself for this semester’s modules and exams. Really hope I can meet them or surpass my own expectations.

For those people who didn’t do as well as they would have wanted,
Don’t give up now, pick yourselves up and study harder for the exams.

加油!!!

Tomorrow I’m going to stick my head back into the books and try to study.

Macroeconomics - 10th Apr
Financial Planning - 11th Apr
Managing Client Services - 14th Apr
Commercial Law - 15th Apr

I’m blogging without making any sense today.

So here’s a pic of SIM’s pond, I thought it looked yummy.
Cheers all, and all the best for the upcoming exams.

Ok and so we had financial planning class today.
The lecturer was obviously trying to stall time by repeating everything she’s taught again, every week. Recapping and repeating. Every week.

I was thinking if I should turn up for class today. Went to school anyway, since today was the last lecture. She probably might have had some exam tips in store for us.

I was wrong. Again.
I thought my lecture notes were messy already. I highlighted the "tips" that she dispensed
, soon realising that she’s highlighting the whole bloody lecture notes for us to study.
That’s _not_ an exam tip. Not even the most efficient way to study.

Like Wyne said, its prolly easier for her to let us know what "not to study" than to make us highlight everything.

Pffft.

So I studied Macroecons instead during her class.
No pics today. too lazy to take the cameras out.

Hopefully, I’ll be able to process the pictures from the fisheye before the exams.

Exams are nearing.
Good luck to all :)   

yum yum. Yesterday’s dinner. ok bye.

An Italian, a Scotsman, and a Chinese fellow were hired at a construction site. The foreman pointed out a huge pile of sand and told the Italian guy, "You’re in charge of sweeping." To the Scotsman he said, "You’re in charge of shoveling." And to the Chinese guy, "You’re in charge of supplies."
He then said, "Now, I have to leave for a little while. I expect you guys to make a dent in that there pile."
The foreman went away for a of couple hours, and, when he returned, the pile of sand was untouched. He asked the Italian, "Why didn’t you sweep any of it?" The Italian replied, "I no hava no broom. You said to the Chinese fella that he a wasa in a charge of supplies, but he hasa disappeared and I no coulda finda him nowhere." Then the foreman turned to the Scotsman and said, "And you, I thought I told you to shovel this pile."
The Scotsman replied, "Aye, ye did lad, boot ah couldnay get meself a shoovel! Ye left th’ Chinese gadgie in chairge of supplies, boot ah couldnay fin’ him either." The foreman was really angry by now and stormed off toward the pile of sand to look for the Chinese guy.

Just then, the Chinese guy jumped out from behind the pile of sand and yelled…

"SUPPLIES!!"
