Summary ...

Yesterday, 19 of June ... XH, Shuhua & Evelyn went Taiwan ... and they will be back only this upcoming Thursday. Sigh, tomorrow is a day whereby I will be at work with no sms pal available T.T

Anyway, 19 of June is also my first time out with my colleagues after work, sometime at night. We went clubbing, at Zirca Clark Quay, At first they wanna go Zouk but Zouk is having an event so we switch venue. Of course, Boss' son is the one whom pay for the cover charges for us all :P

When we reach it was still early, so we went TCC for coffee. Over there, I chatted with YN about GS/GSD events ^^ I left the place with Debbie and Terence, as well as Xiao Feng ... XF went chinatown after leaving the pub, and I went home alone in a cab. Thank god, one whole row of available cabs is along that area ... so going home is not a problem. Reach home about 12.45am ... and went to bed almost immediately. Overall, its' a nice trip ... and quite a memorable event.

In terms of studies wise, I finally get to know my grades for the FS paper which I retook and the FM paper result. However, I am still waiting to know my BIS results that has yet to be released. I managed to clear the FS/FM paper, lucky me ... else had to re-module liao ^^;;

Some updates on the week

First off, Exams status...

One down and two more to go. Took the Financial Strategy paper yesterday, and all I can say now is to hope that the teacher will take pity on me and let me passed. Given up on 1 questions worth 20 marks, cause I had no idea what the heck it was asking, the remaining 80 marks, I could only hoped for the best T.T I did study, but end up coming out 3 topics which I did not make it a point to study, cause I don't understand a single bit out of the text =_=

Now, I have 2 more papers to prepare for. Financial Management and Business Information System, I'm gonna start revising for it in a while's time. In the meantime, I just wanted to get something off my chest.

Send out about 6 job applications over the past month, and finally I received another call from the SPF calling me down to interview ... Wee!!! Okay, happy enough but still the venue for the interview is at Novena. When I first saw the email notifying me of the details of the interview, I was going @@. Well, thankfully the email came attached with the directions of how to get there ... cause the address is something I had never seen before =_= ... I lived in Jurong some more, Novena was like 2 train transit and 16 stops away ... Well, at least its' not that far as compared to Bedok which is like 19 stops away from Jurong =_=

Also, I'm having a primary school gathering reunion party this sunday XDDD Mr Kamarudin will be joining, :P Found back all the lost classmates of the class 6/4 on facebook too :P

Heaven played a joke on me too T.T

April Fool - literally is a day whereby everyone get fooled.

Here I thought, my last day of work is finally here. Then at about 10 am, Jamie told me the bad news of the books being stuck at the Singapore Cargo and will only be here on Saturday. Shit! There goes another day of my freedom, here I was hoping that I could finally have the time to study. now its' one more day more of work, and one lesser day to study T.T

That's not the end of it, then boss says he 'okay-ed' too much food fair venue that he failed to take into consideration of manpower shortage. Since Jamie have to be away, and the new girl had no idea what to do with the Weekly fixed order, I have to go back on the 10th of April to work another day. That will then be my official last day =_=

Well, now I could only hoped my exams I'll be able to clear through them without anymore failures as I really do not wish to retake anymore modules T.T

Rainy Day and Gloomy Mood

Its' a raining sat morning, I specifically told my mom to drag me out of bed before she left for work this morning. Reason, I dun wanna be late for work and I had several things to do before work today.

1. Have to go bank in money for the shop, bank at Jurong West Blk 502. Operated until 11.30am only, so I have to go early. Hoping to reach by 10.30am. Therefore, I needed to wake up latest by 9am.

2. Collect HK comics at Boon Lay. I just realized I forgot to take the book which belong to Boon Lay home yesterday. It just slipped from my mind, I guess. Nvm ... Jamie can delivered it next wed.

I'll either sweep & mop the floor today or tomorrow, probably tomorrow as I intend to finish up my majority of the paperwork today. Shilin coming in at 5pm, I hope I can finish as much as possible before she came in and distracted me from doing so.

3. Lethargic day this has been thus far. As its' raining, the weather makes me wanna lie still on my bed and not moving a single inch. Too bad, have to go work today so I have to literally forced and dragged myself out from the bed.

Finish reading the 2 new books which I borrowed from the shop yesterday. Yesterday's sales is pathetic, I hope today would be better else I might have the boss chasing after me for reasons. I've with me bk 1 to 9 of the series 'Bartender' which Alan lend me yesterday, I had yet to touch them. However, I have every intention in mind to finish it by Monday night so that I can pass them over to Jing - such that she could read and pass them back to Alan on 27 March.

4. Have been in a gloomy mood recently, had no idea why though ... Lets' hope my mood will improve over the next week. Perhaps its' all the stresses getting to me already, speaking of which I really need to get down to studying soon. I haven't been touching my text for like how long? No idea, but I really need to get down to them soon.

I need to prepare to study at least 5 chapters for each subject, maybe I can just picked 5 and concentrated on them? I have 3 subjects to study for, so I need to study a total of 15 chapters. Below are the dates to take note:

7 April - Financial Strategy (2-5pm)
13 April - Financial Management (2-5pm)
14 April - Business Information System (2-5pm)

All the three subjects, I had to die die pass this time around. I think I'll take all my notes with me today and see which one I am in the mood for later this afternoon. I can't procrastinate any longer for the exam is coming up real soon. This is no theory exam for music, so I can't not study for them ... *Sigh* speaking of which, I've got to notify Ms. Wee about the fact that I had exams on the two days and would need to switch timing for my flute classes. That's all for now, cya!

March has finally comes around...

Seems like March - April is a busy month for me. Majority of my saturdays in March are booked up, that reminded me that I desperately need to save up money to return my Mom. Hopefully, when I get a new job my financial ability would be better and more stable. I think I'll leave my last 50 bucks of my Red Packets collected in the new year for 27 March purposes. Who knows what Shuhua and Eve wanna eat that day for lunch/dinner.

Speaking of which, I need to check my bank balance later and see how much money I've got left that I'll be able to touch. Need to survive next 2 weeks on them, until I get my pay check for the month of Feb. I wonder how much I'll be able to earn in the month of March, as the pay is what that's gonna make me through the month of April.

April is a month that's full of Examinations for me, so I really needed the time to study. Maybe I should go around hunting and see where would be a good place for me to concentrate on my studies? I know its' definitely not my own house... cause there's tons and loads of distraction keeping me away from my text books. Maybe I can go into the shop and study? Let's see how things goes first ...

Right, and I need to find time to go Daiso to buy more comics bag to store my novels and comics alike. I wonder how long its' going to take me to clear the below series of comics and novels which I still has it in store. I had every intention to clear them soon, but depending on the situation it may takes me up till May to finish clearing what I have there for now.

Random Update

Just to let you guys know I'm not dead. Actually, I'm not really in a mood to blog ... but well ... I felt the need to rant.

Have about 50 bks on hand from shop ^^;; (On rental) ... dozen of animes to watch, already going through some if not all of them. Exams coming too ... and I haven't even touch my books at all =_= Probably should do some last minute crammed up study on sat (upcoming) since I'm on off ...

4 Aug - Performance Mgmt Exam (Should be able to pass, even if I were to just randomly go through the book on sat) - cause only few chapters involved in the module.

14 Aug - Audit Exam ... This one, dunno leh ... Must try to memorize ... Shall see what I can do about it.

17 Aug - Financial Mgmt Re-Exam. This one, die lah ... Haven't study for it, and lots of things to memorize ... T.T If fail again, must re-module liao le ...

For my Flute Exam, its' coming along fine ... Have gotten part A of my selected pieces 90% done, Part B initially had already chosen a piece ... but Ms. Wee says the piece required a lot of coordination with the pianist ... so she's going to take another look at Part B. Part C, I had finally manage to choose the piece - C2 (Study in F) its' a solo piece ... so I'm practicing my C Major now in order to get my high notes out.

C2 is coming along, I'm left with the last 4 bars of the piece to master. Since there's a total of 8 bars in all to master for each piece ...

P.S. Did an estimated count of my pay check for the month of July, should have about 800 bucks ... if nothing goes wrong with my calculation.

Among vexing matters and others ....

Just realized I had forgotten to credit an entry in my personal bank accounts - thus, amt. in actual bank statement does not equal to my own personal accounts. Nevermind, shall amend it tonight ...

Finally bought the Grade 1 exam pieces book and started my official grade 2 theory lesson today. For today, its' still Ms. Wee whom taught me theory ... as there's some re-arrangement of schedules timing for the new theory teacher whom's going to be teaching me soon ... =_=

Right, I should probably start deciding on my 3 pieces soon enough ... For Section A, its' either A1 or A3 ... Ms. Wee told me to go back and practice all my high notes - especially, A, B, G & F ... somehow, i can't get them all sound 'right'.

She says, if I can get these above notes right ... then we will do A3 for the exam. If not, we'll do A1 - which is 'Greensleeves' - which includes slurs in the piece.

she also suggested for me to practise and use the Chromatic Scales as warm-up exercises ... had to memorize the fingerings for all the sharps. So far I only remembered the 'F-sharp'... and also have to remember/revise my short fingering of B-flat.

Grade 2 theory wise ... more italian terms to remember/memorize. Also, had to start learning the notes on ledger lines and to draw them out >.< (Real troublesome if you ask me ... cause' I take double the time for notes on Base Clef ... )

Had to pay bills soon, and update my passbook too ... Waiting for pay to arrive too ... wondering when it will be given to me, this month. Today, I really spend a lot of money ... the exam fees $138. Grade 1 Exam Book - $15.50 (the one without CD), Grade 2 Theory ($8.80) ... then Flute Beginner Practical - $90 & Grade 2 Theory - $70 (increase by $10 - lucky I got additional cash on me, Ms. Wee forgot to tell me the increase in pricing). So total, spend $322.30 on flute lessons ...

T.T

Increase my working days too, starting tomorrow - I'll be coming in on Monday as well. Then for June holidays - starting 27 June to 29 June, I'll be covering shifts for Jamie as she wanted to go KL for holidays. Not to forget this month end, 28 March (Sat) - I had to cover for her as well, as she had taken the day off as part of her annual leave.

In order to get myself familiarize with the fingerings for chromatic scales, and also to practise my high notes. Looks like I really had to find time for practises - most probably I'll do them on Wednesday afternoon or on Saturday. Perhaps, on Friday afternoon over the next few weeks when there;s no classes. Maa... shall see what happened when we go along.

right, gotta get back to work.

Flute, projects, work and exams...

Seems like I'm rather lazy to blog these days, except when I'm utterly stressed out or frustrated about something. Anyway, just an update to let you people know that I'm not dead - yet ...

The projects that are piling up on me is literally killing me on the slow side ... especially the Financial Management project ... Up until now, I think I still had at least another 60% to go ... before completion and that is not all ... thing is, its' due on the upcoming friday =_=

Hopefully, Xinhui and I will be able to finish it by wednesday so that pauline can compile it =_= ...

That aside, my exams results for last sem is out ... scored both 'C's like Xinhui did - this time around. So I pass my financial accounting paper ... and thus, I owe her sis a meal treat to Subway ... seems like have to put it on hold though ... since we hardly have time that match one another's schedule.

Right, moving on to the idea of flute classes today. I am finally approaching the end of Grade 1 theory, and starting next week - my teacher would be getting her colleague to start grade 2 theory with me as she had something on after my flute class (current timing - 9.30-10.30 am ...) but she had something on at 10 am ... so ...

Anyway, she asked me today - whether I wanted to try for the grade exams. I'm supposed to let her know next lesson, so she can submit my name for the exam if I wanted to try it out. She asked me if I want to go for grade 1 or try grade 2 ... but after we looked at the exam pieces book - her decision was that we tried grade 1 exam first.

I've just finished F and G Major scales, and left with the 3 minor scales ... and so if I were to go for the exams, it will most probably be the september exam. I had yet to get the scales and appegios book since its' still out of stock at many places ... =_= and thus I had to rely on my memory for now ... and hopefully, the book will be in stock soon, cause I simply cannot remember so many scales ... without referring to the book.

Right, and so ... I'll probably say ' yes' to the exam thing next week when I see her ... Right, now its' time for me to go back to work again.

Special Thanks to XH's Sis - YZ

Yep, you see it right ... ^^;; recently, we both (XH & me) often hang out at her place whenever free XD

Why - simple! ... We need urgent tutoring help for our Accounting Subject (Financial Accounting 1) ... cause' the teachers' teaching style was really so "special" that neither of us can understand. So what we did - (exams coming up soon ... last minute went to grab hold of whomever/whichever kami-sama that we can get hold of ...) Her sis just happened to be one of them ...

While her sis was unable to help us with anything too challenging, she at least, managed to "teach" us the foundation chapters - such as Trial balance, Profit & Loss (With Trading) & 50% of the Bank Reconciliation Statements.

Although, we learnt these topics way back in our secondary school years but as too many years had gone by without us using those skills. WE had literally forgot everything about them ... thus, had to be constantly supervised and reminded by YZ as we tried to do the questions in the past years revision papers.

This upcoming friday, we had another session with a relative of XH ... on the topics that YZ had no idea of ... ^^;;

Right, that will come later ... anyway, I predicted that we might meet up at XH place again soon enough ... ^^;; Well, tomorrow had to concentrate solely on Econs - else we will both die horribly at the exams on monday.

As I am working tomorrow, I'll be bringing the book over to study during free time. Intend to rush through the paperwork on hand tomorrow ... and complete whichever paperwork/duties that I had to do ...

P.S. I promise to give XH sister a treat to Subway if I managed to get through the Accounting paper on 1 December 2008. Either way, thanks in advance ... ^__^
