1 more to go...

cant believe that time over here in uk just flew by... in less than 10 days time, i would have been done with my first year over here... and only a year left to go before i graduate...

And this time.. i can actually smell graduation in the air.. as much as im still pretty sure im going to fail management accounting, i can still always resit it and pass it, or maybe.. i dont even need to resit it as all my other module marks will be able to cover it up.. weird system over here in uk

So yeah.. now that i have a better grasp of what i want to do, and what modules i want to do next year in order to avoid the trap that i set myself this year..

what trap you may ask:

Well, apparently management accounting is the hardest module from the accounting side(highest score last year was 65), and hardest module from economics side is stats and econometrics... and just so happen. i chose those 2 as my electives.. ELECTIVES MAN!!! i wasnt even forced to do it as a core module, everyone who knew it was my electives were like.. why the hell did you choose this.. beats me!

anyways.. as for next year here it goes

1)Economics Management Strategy
2)Business Strategy
3)Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management
4)Basic Mathematics for Economics
5)Business information Systems!

should be okay.. plannin to average.. about.. high 60's! lets see whether that happens.. my aim for 2nd class upper honours is slipping away. but.. who knows.. who knows!

in other news.. this year has been absolutely great.. its amazing what a year can do to you.. its really different.. everything is different.. im kinda used to it here.. i have my small circle of friends which im comfortable with.. everything is alrite .. lets put it that way...

hols are coming up soon.. cant wait! melby here i come.. hahaha.. a repeat of last years 'spyrytus' event... less likely, however.... who knows.. might just have to live up to everyones expectations, however ck and veron have told me that they wont let me stay over at their place if im drunk, and i have to part ways with 50 dollars if i was to get xin yu aka monash to take care of me when im drunk, and another 50 dollars to take care of kk cause ill be getting him drunk.. hmm... not financially advisable i reckon

other news.. you wanna know how hooked onto sytycd australia i was! If any of you watches the show, you can notice .. at the finale, khaly and the breakers came back to do a group routine.. with some random girls and stuff.. im so hooked to the point that... i have watched that routine so many times to the point that i can just about name all the guys and girls in it ( its usually hard to tell all of them cause their face is covered and you only get to see a split second of them, well, considering i watch the routine about 20 times or more, im sure i can name everyone in it)

other news.. so you think you can dance america season 4 is out! good riddance american idol i say... and ..shit.. this season is gonna bring the house down. the 1st ep itself is ridiculously amazing!!!!

hmm.. what else is there to say.. like in uk is rather .. monotonous.. so yeah.. esp now..since its exam period.. but.. i only have 10 more days to go and im free!!! hahaha...unlike everyone back in melby.. you just started.. hahah!

so yeah.. good luck to everyone with their exams that are coming up soon.. hope to see you all in melby.. or back in malaysia.. or what now! Good luck with it.. and wish me luck too!!!

Final note... i just bought an xbox 360 woot!

blond and ditz... pakistani...

so here i was with my friends, having dinner quite a while back... and my english mate Chris was telling us about how he got offered a job from AXA insurance.. that pays 25000 pounds.. and were all happy for him and what not...

About a week later.. whilst we were all in the library.. having late night supper at midnight, kebab with garlic mayo sauce and some coleslaw on it from raj.. the usual... my pakistani friend, who was at the dinner few weeks back as well.. started this conversation...

Pakistani: So Chris, congratulation on your job!

Chris: Why thanks!

Pakistani: So, what did you say the pay was again?

Chris: 25000 pounds...

Pakistani: hmm.. thats not bad.. that actually quite good.. 25000 pounds a month....

ME: errr...what?

Chris: ...

Pakistani: what do you mean what?

ME: what you mean 25000 pounds a month?

Pakistani: yea, chris said he is earning 25000 pounds a month!

Chris: When did i say that?

ME: NO HE DIDNT... he said he is going to earn 25000 pounds a year!

Chris: Yea.. what did you think i was saying?

Pakistani: ??-_-.. you guys are kidding right>?

ME:-_-

Chris:-_-

ME: ...erm.. no we are not? why the hell do you think he is earning 25000 pounds a month?

Pakistani:.... but.. but.. your kidding right chris? your not earning 25000 pounds a year?

Chris: erm.. yes i am!

ME: WTF!!! WTF..How the hell did you think that? WTH!


Basicaly.. you can see where this conversation was headed to, he really thought that my friend was going to earn 25000pounds a month.. who the hell earns that much.. sorry man.. no offence.. but.. its reality.. no one earns 25000 upon graduation... POUNDS!!!

so yeah.. he really didnt know.. reli reli didnt know.. he went on to say.. well.. i was thinking.. 25000 pounds a month was alright, i dont need to get much money from my parents, i can just buy some clothes here and there.. and maybe get some money from my parents when i need it..

WHy the hell would you need money if you are earning 25000 pounds a month... that slike.. RM 150000 a month.. wth

so yeah.. and this guy is like in.. 2nd year already! and he is doing well in his studies. .. but boy oh boy does he have absolutely no idea whats waiting for him in the real world!

When we finally told him that he is only going to earn.. 2500 pounds max... a month when he graduated... well.. lets just say he almost fainted...

ps. on another random note.. i hate management accounting.. a lot.. shit thing is.. im pretty sure i failed it yesterday.. and i will need to look at it again come august when i re sit for it!

it was 11.30pm on a night where about 10 people, who are gathered in the library are starting to suffer from starvation... and desperately needed some late night supper ... to get.. food for thought!

it was also the monday, the 5th of may, which is a bank holiday here...

so.. the group of 10 decided to give a call to the takeaway place.. to get some orders which included 14 burgers ( some chicken, some beef, some bacon, some fish..which apparently tasted like vegetable burger instead)... only to our disapointment that no one picked up the shop telephone.. and it is likely that the shop was closed due to bank holiday....

So.. what do we do now.. well.. thank goodness.. that one of us had the handphone number... of... wait for it.. wait for it.. THE OWNER OF THE SHOP!

so there it is, we called the shop.. and asked the owner whether he would be kind enough to make our food... even though the actual shop was closed... and the owner was actually reluctant.. well that quickly changed when we told him we were going to order 100 pounds worth..

so there it is.. 45 minutes later.. food was delivered... food was goood..

now.. fingers crossed that there wasnt any saliva.. or worse... well..aint gonna mention it...but im sure you know what im thinkin...

now.... enough procrastinating. and right back to work. once again..
