My Diary

Thursday, 20th March 2009
I felt very tired for the whole day. I didn’t sleep well last night due to my nose block.
During class, I learned about currency options and netting for Advanced Finance Management. Since the college reopen for this new semester, CK and SL became Permanent United Nations as they didn’t attend Dr Wong’s classes anymore. Dr Wong noticed them and started to take attendance. I thought Monica would be one of the members in PUN but she started to attend this lecture class and I saw her today.

After the class, I had Moral class. There were no tutorial questions to be discussed throughout the course. We just have to spend one and half hours to listen presentation from our own classmates. Today, HKian, HKim and KXin presented on the topic “Discrimination”. There slides were attractive as they put in some pictures, animation and comics. While they presenting, I chat with AQ about my brother who is in Kota Kinabalu now. He represented KL for table tennis competition in K.K. His team mates are NNgee, Nigel, Nicholas and Ah Weng. Their team managed to obtain third placing; NNgee and Nigel obtained first runner up for double event. My brother lost in doubles and Single.

After Moral, we had discussion for FDM but just CK, YPeng and me. KLung wanted to go back to his hometown, AQ has not started her writing for our assignment so she went back to complete it while SL went back. Actually, there was not much issue to discuss. Once they started the discussion, I was just listening to their ideas and comments from the beginning to the end. It seems like I was doing nothing. So charm… L However, I did my part for finance and ethics. If my work compared to theirs, it likes a very big gap. They put a lot of efforts in it as they did their research here and there. Honestly, I always admired them as they were knowledgeable. I wish I could be like them. Since I could not give my helping hand, I wish to learn something from their ideas and comments.

CK commented on my part for 15 minutes before attending my tax lecture class. For my ethics, I thought Luis Zubino started the volunteer programme but it was organised by his staff. I interpret wrongly. Understanding the English words seems difficult for me. I tried my best to do my part. Haiz.. Besides, the food product was not explained in an ethic manner so CK said he would do the amendments for me. How I hope that there is no changes in my parts. Anyway, it’s good to have someone to correct my work. In this way, I could learn from my mistakes. Basically, I finished my part. During discussion with CK, I found out that my mechanical pen went missing from my pencil box. Then, I remembered that AQ borrowed mine. Luckily, CKwas kind enough to ‘lend’ me his. Did you notice the word ‘lend’? Yes, I was not sure whether he said he gave me one as he has four. But then, I inserted 3 sticks of pencil nip without having second thought. How careless I am! I realized this when I had tax lecture.

For this small mistake, I could not concentrate in my class. Anyway, I decided to return mechanical pencil to him once I get my one. About tax, Mr Andrew taught us about the business income and expense.

Ok.. That’s all. Apart from that, there were some jokes. Jun Loong mentioned about KLung’s name. Some teachers pronounce his as ‘Lung’ in English. Haha.. Sound funny, right? Our group always have a CEO, Chairman, Secretary, NED… We always named ourselves differently. CEO is CK, Secretary is SL, NED is YPeng, Chairman is KLung, AQ and me are directors. Although KLung is Chairman, he said himself as those people who arrange chairs. Haha..

Something happened to WLun. He told us that yesterday was his bad day. His car was spoilt so he wanted to repair it. (No wonder I didn’t see his car parking in front of the college) He wanted to make a call but no batteries. Then, he wished to withdraw money from ATM. At that time, it was raining so he ran to the canteen 2. To his disappointment, one ATM was spoilt and another ATM was not able to withdraw to money. Not only that, a person fetched him to withdraw money from CIMB bank at TBR. To his surprised, CIMB was no longer in TBR. I heard that Koh Lung helped him in the end.
Ok.. That’s all. See you.
