-grace,charlotte, me & esther
God's grace is more than sufficient for us. Before today, i didn't really comprehend what was really God's grace. I mean, i've heard testimonies from and of other ppl who testified about God's grace in their lives. To them, God answered their prayers. It was just a simple act of asking and believing. Even though Pastor Prince kept emphasizing that 'Right believing produces right living', it was quite hard for me to believe that it is actually so simple.

I had an accounting project presentation today and everything was prepared already. But abt 1 hr before my presentation, one of my tutorial grp mates told us that one of our points in the report is wrong. It so happens that that particular point was the one which i was supposed to present on. My grp members and I started panicking & we tried furiously to come up with a 'new' point so as to cover up our 'mistake'. I was quite worried as this project would account for 17% of my final grade. thank God that he reminded me through Adelene to trust in Him and that He will never fail me. So i prayed that God would guide me through even as i did my presentation. Everything went smoothly and during the 'Q & A' session, every member of my grp had questions thrown at them except me. So what was perceived to be wrong was actually correct in a sense. my fears were unfounded. :) God came through for me & i just want to thank Him for even reminding me that He's there for me all the time. :)

"Jesus, I can't help but want you more
The more and more I see
Your goodness unto me
I fall in love with you
More and more"

argh... i'm like super fed up with my comp! my stuff that i uploaded from my camera to Iphoto got moved to another location on the comp. up to now, i still cannot figure out where it has disappeared to!! Spotlight isn't any use either!! grrrrr.. my beloved pictures!!!! :(

i still wanna go HK.. wahhaha.. just that i'm looking for another person to join the 3 of us. unless of course, CX comes up with a better promo than SQ which doesn't require 4 ppl to travel in & out of SG together. :P shopping.. here i come AGAIN!!! i want to buy boots!! it's so much cheaper and nicer over there.

2 more weeks to my recess week. can't wait for it! i need a break desperately. after my recess week, i think my term will go by very fast. only 3 more weeks of lessons before we break to study for exams... :) The HTML for my site is still screwed up. i checked and found nothing wrong with the codes, so i guess it's just blogspot's problem. hope they'll solve it soon.

i need to earn $$ fast!! any gd suggestions??

people are thankless.. never expect anything in return cause you'll not get anything. some ppl are just plain selfish.

just wanna post up some pictures... :) enjoy.

love this pix.. everyone's smiling! including me.. haha... :P
sheesh.. i'm just damn pissed with someone. hello... i'm like doing you a favour you know? you wouldn't even get yr stuff if i decided not to help you. anyway, you're the only one complaining abt it. it's not like i wasn't affected. i'm a victim too ok..urgh... the nerve of some ppl who have the audacity to complain and grumble over such a minor issue. i don't get y they have to blow the whole matter out of proportion when it's just a minor issue! some ppl are just too free... *bleah* from now on, i shall just mind my own business. HUH!

anyway, time sure flies by pretty quickly. the 5th week of school is already over! my financial management prof seemed to be in a pretty bad mood today. Yvonne & I were speculating if it was due to the fact that he lost $$ on the stock market the previous day. His hair was all dishevelled and he looked like he slept in his clothes and forgot to change... haha.. he was very irritated with the seminar ppl cause we couldn't calcuate the PV,FV and LTM of the bonds fast enough. He claims that we shd be able to do so in like 30sec. He seemed to be implying that we were stupid cause we took so long to calculate the value of the bonds.. :( oh well...

Stats is like super horrible. i'm quite lost now. i think i better start devoting more time to it. during stats tutorial today, i spent half the time surfing the net and the other half doing my financial managment tutorial.. yep, all done in front of my stats tutor. haa. the whole class totally didn't understand him at all. it seemed like he was talking to himself. :P

so far, the modules which i'm most interested in is Accounting 1 and Financial Managment. haha..OB is mainly common sense.. Comm Management is like super embarassing... i dun even want to talk abt it. my presentation for Acc 1 is next tues. praying damn hard that it'll be ok. esp so cause i'm not even sure if what i wrote for SIA is true.

Projects!?!?!?! argh.... i never knew projects could take up so much of my time. these few days i've been spending practically all my time in sch man. 10.30am-7.30pm.. :( i'll be glad when i finally hand in my written report tomorrow. but then again. i'll still have to do my presentation next week...that's another hurdle to cross. if i'm not wrong, this will be the only project i'll have to do for AA101. yay! :) it accounts for like 17% of my final score, so i pray that i'll do well. :)

ok... i think i'll go to Tampines later to buy a laptop carrier once i'm done with my written report.. hopefully soon.

i look like a panda now.. *bleah* :(

online shopping sure is addictive. however, the disappointment that i've faced upon arrival of my purchases has put me off quite a bit. pictures are deceiving. the clothes do not look as good as they do online. :( i'm gonna swear off online shopping from now on. i see no point in buying something that just looks gd online but not on me. at least i've another avenue to which i can sell them off. that's some consolation in itself. ;) i desperately need new clothes. even though my closet is chocked full of clothes, i seem to be wearing the same stuff almost every week! i wanna go HK again to buy new clothes and more accessories! a short day trip to JB wouldn't hurt either. :P well, my main aim now is to sell off my purchases online before embarking on my shopping spree again. :P

whoops.. dinner beckons.. updates later.. :P

i'm into my 4th week of sch already. time sure flies.. that Esther still hasn't started sch yet!! oh well... i'm still thinking if i shd go to HK at the end of the year. Pam is extremely keen, but the problem is that it'll be kinda tight for both Esther & I . don't wanna disappoint Pam but yet i've to ensure that it can fit into my schedule.

Oh... i got my Ibook on MON!! haha.. finally.. :) i'm still learning how to use it though. it's been quite smooth sailing so far, save for the fact that my wireless connection hasn't been set up yet. so i'm leeching off my neighbours internet connection. :P wonder if they know abt it..:P

i've got an OB & D presentation tomorrow! and Accounting 1 written report to be handed up by next week!!! sheesh. i just hate projects and presentations...

gotta catch up on ALL my subjects.. so tata for now....

currently having a break in btw lessons, so decided to hop down to the NBS free access lab to surf the net with Yvonne. jeez.. the keyboard seems really dusty even though i bet lots of ppl use it everyday. not only that, there seems to be a lack of air conditioning in the lab! *fans myself*

sch's getting more and more hectic with each passing week. even though the national holiday is just over, i can't wait for the next one to come! One thing abt uni is this, u really have got to be INDEPENDENT! :( it's already the 3rd week of sch. if i'm not wrong, lessons will stop in the 13th week. after that, it's revision & exams! come to think of it, my uni life shd fly by quite quickly. dunno if that's a gd or bad thing.

my apple laptop hasn't arrived yet! it's already more than 5 days overdue! for every day that it's overdue, they have to pay me 0.1& of the total laptop price. That's what they call "Liquidated Damages". so 8 Flags, if u dun want to pay me more, give me my laptop ASAP!!! ;)

i'm staying in sch till 6.30pm today.. all because of my OB lecture. i'm trying to while away the 2 hrs that i've to wait in the lab. hm... maybe i shall go on MSN to see if i can find anyone to talk to. getting kinda bored already. in fact, this whole post seems like i'm ranting to myself.

Dim Sum Dollies: Singapore's Most Wanted @ the Esplanade! :)

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

went to watch Dim Sum Dollies today with Pam & Esther. Esther was late so she missed the 1st half of the show.. :( too bad cause i felt that the 1st half had more substance in it. Lots of funny biting satire, poking fun at Singapore's various laws and national icons. I especially liked the part whereby being slim is considered taboo & being fat is considered 'in'. instead of 'Expressions', the 'gain-weight' centre was called 'Expansions'. Hossan Leong was fantastic in the various roles that he reprised. The NKF saga was also mentioned, only that they changed it to the NSB instead. haha.. Hollywood was not spared either, with Zhang Ziyi & Lucy Liu coming into the picture. Some of the memorable dialogue that went btw them are as follows:
Lucy Liu:"You can't even speak English!"
Zhang Ziyi:" The soup is too salty.."

Zhang Ziyi ( to Lucy Liu): "you're just a 2nd class citizen in yr country with no voice! [translated from mandarin to english]


Kudos to Selena Tan,Pam Oei,Emma Yong & Hossan Leong!! :) can't wait to see the next installment of the Dim Sum Dollies next year.

Meanwhile, i'll be ordering tickets to "Oi! Sleeping Beauty! The WAKE UP production".

Synopsis is as follows:

If Sleeping Beauty were to wake up in today’s Singapore, what would she find? What do a slimming centre, Three Fairy God Aunties, and the Merlion have to do with the twists and turns of her new story?

W!LD RICE’s deliciously wicked pantomime re-imagines the tale of the sleepy princess with such irreverence and so many sequins (!), you will never see Sleeping Beauty the same way again!

been 2 weeks since i last blogged.. was on a short hiatus due to the fact that sch has started. i'm already into my 2nd week of uni life and it's been quite smooth sailing so far. time really flies in uni, all the more so for me, as i've a 4 day week. :P i'm still settling down and trying to get used to the new system. in uni, we've really got to be independent. no more teachers running after you to tell u what to do, where to get yr lect notes etc. everything is just posted up on edveNTUre. if u don't see it, then too bad.

i felt really lost on the 1st day of sch. imagine walking into a lecture theatre that sits like 1000 ppl. u don't know practically all of them. u're just one out of many. no assigned seating, no familiar faces and no fixed class! somehow, the safety net that we used to have has disappeared. it's at times like these when i really miss SA.

my lecturers are one quirky lot. i've got an indian stats lect who has a really strong indian accent. half the time is spent trying to understand him, while the other half is spent trying not to doze off. his voice seems to have this hypnotic effect that puts ppl to sleep. most of my seniors have told me that they only go for the 1st and the last lect. the last lect is impt as exam tips would be given.. i forsee that there will be a pretty empty lect theatre this week for stats. :P

most of my lessons run consecutively, so i don't have time for lunch. i either end up skipping it or i just sneak some munchies into the LT. i can't wait for hols again, even though i've just had a 8 mth break. :P my readings for accounting 1 alone are like 100 pages per lecture! i can't imagine how the others will be like!! *shudders*
