I am not getting any work done.
All I wanna do is try to get out of this rut by packing my room to feel more efficient by the cleanness.
But I cannot pack my room.
Because I need to get work done.

I am not getting any work done.
Because I feel so dizzy from being so awake for so long and just want to sleep.
But I cannot sleep.
Because I need to get work done.

BLEAH.

I really got to stop complaining. Hell weeks have just arrived and everybody's overworked and "underslept". And all I have swirling inside my head, if for an instance I was awake to even do a tiny bit of thinking, is "Why do I have so much work?! I can't do all this work. I haven't come across this before so it's unfair for me to do it. It's too hard. This piece of work sucks. Everyone's gonna hate me. I've never learnt this before so I don't want to do it."

GROSS.

I hate all this negativity because it's so weak. Like I lost all my resilience and fighting spirit and whatever qualities that keep you strong and motivate you to move on. Think it's time to quit the complaining and start doing.

Good.. I feel better now.

Anyway.. really looking forward to the weekend! Cuz.. it's my dad's birthday and everyone's making celebration plans! And well.. I'm doing part of the marketing cum programmes planning haha. So exciting. My 14-year-old sister is doing up the post-dinner menu and my 6-year-old sister is handling the kids events and decorations!! Haha.. so fun getting involved organizing fun little things like this.

So.. the theme of our little party is.. LOUD RETRO PRINTS!!





Haha how're the emailers looking?

Oh, and by the way.. below is how we celebrated our dear Arvind's birthday past 12am last night. Happy birthday brudder =).

Was surfing around looking for a "business mission" to put in my project. So I decided to draw some inspiration from IJ's mission statement, since they made us memorize it long ago. And guess what I found:
Omg they're still using pictures with people from our batch!! And this is the current secondary school webpage. Haha cool.

TAGBOARD REPLIES

AUDDIE
I'm doing good, thaaanks =). Will be leaving on 7th Oct (Tue) and coming back on 11th Oct (Sat). Omg yes I'm so going to shop like crazy!! Hehe want me to help you get any MAC products?

Anyways yes, I'm doing a finance major. Was just irritated lately cuz I totally don't get all my finance classes and projects so was stressing a bit haha. Hopefully it'll tide over. Heyy you take care also ok? If you wanna do anything, just give me a call and we'll see what we can come up with =)) Thanks for all your advice on my tagboard haha. Although I didn't reply, I did take it.

LEANN
Yay yeaps we MUST go cycling again!! Haha let's go for Faber next time? It's totally therapeutical down the hill man. And fat-burning on the way up too!! Paiseh answered a bit too late though. After our HK trip ok!! And you finally get to go back home after so long. Let's celebrate when we go to JB haha =DD Can't wait to do that "4 cow" thing to papa Arvind mwahaha. He'll never escape us in Malaysia!

JOZ
Heyy! That was one rare night I happened to be around. Went for a CCA event earlier and came straight back to the hostel after. Was some good me-time. Anyway, put up one of the visualdna on your blog too! It's really super fun to do!! youniverse.com. Do you want any stuff from HK too? =D

STEF
Hellooo!! Hope you are doing good at Buffalo!! Stuff looks really interesting there from your blog man. Thanks for all your encouragement on my tagboard too =). That time when you wrote all that stuff, things were just going too fast and there was just so much pressure. You enjoy yourself in the US, travel more and take as much pictures as possible!! Haha. Let us know again when you're coming back k. =) Take care!

Woohoo! My valuation's done in a record time of 6hrs! Hope it's all correct. So glad to stop stressing over all these finance things. For now. Suddenly everything seems to be looking up again.

And so, I found the key to happiness:
(If α looks unclear, α = corresponds to)

- Stress α Amount of new finance knowledge to do
- Happiness α Amount of new finance knowledge done after stressing for a long time

I miss E maths, A maths and C maths.
All the correlation from my newfound happiness equation is reminding me of the good old maths times.

Talking about maths, I had my finance mock test today.

And there was this simple question:

Would you borrow from a credit card with a% compounded interest rate monthly or take out a bank loan with b% compounded interest rate with every quarter?
(a << money =" $x" year =" y">


Terrible! Nobody ever tries to even solve anything financial with algebraic equations like that anymore. At least not in the exams. But, that apparently was the only fun question. And it was only fun because of the approach. Which was wrong. Omg I miss lg and ln.

Ok, retarded maths post.

I think I better brush up on my literature, go read some good books and after that come back blogging about wise and enriching worldly views.

Was randomly talking over supper with Jess and Leann about the rarer food you can find around the world, like kangaroo meat and crocodile meat. Then, I suddenly was just brought back to one of the old times where I was back in Sec3 in IJ. We were sitting in an English lesson, and Janet (forgot her surname) relief-taught our lesson. Then she was saying.. "If I could have anything to eat in the world, I would eat whale blubber! All fats are tasty. Whale blubber must taste good as well."

Seriously.. who would actually think of such things? I think people who either read so widely or travel a lot have so much more in life. They learn to love and appreciate the world in such a different light. And I want to catch a glimpse of this very light. It sounds so nice. Feeling like that "jing di zhi wa" chinese proverb now. Too close-minded and forever caught up with whatever comes along only. People have described others leading such a life as the "living dead". Sounds like a horrid sort of life to me.
