My guess was right. Wall street is screwed. Who's next after Lehman Brothers?

Argh crap. Just had International Business Finance paper this morning. Went in feeling rather confident, came out feeling crap. Totally screwed up a major portion of the paper. DAMN IT. So much for studying hard and preparing myself for it. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Gonna take my mind off this unhappy experience, post some pictures and get on with life. We cooked porridge few days back. This time we added in Pi Dan (Century egg), and it tasted damn good. The pictures doesn't really justify the great taste though.






I think I never had that much Pi Dan at one go before, thus was feeling a little weird from the overdosage. Till now, no banks got back to me regarding my internship this year end. Think it's pretty gone case for me. With no banks to go for now, I turned to auditing firms. Out of the big four, only Ernst & Young bothered to reply to my internship enquiry. =/ Application process was a tedious process, which I only managed to settle in the past hour or so. I had to use my digital camera to take an i/c photo to paste on the application form. Lotsa cam whoring took place. I will just post one picture, in case you guys think I'm a cam whore. Haha!

A temporary sigh of relief...

Today I breathe a sigh of relief...temporary one I guess. The worst feared mid semester test of all, "Corporate Financial Reporting", is finally over. Took the test this afternoon, and surprisingly the paper was fairly easy and straightforward, despite the class being allocated the toughest paper among 6. Never had I study something so intensively and yet not understand most of the essence. Most of my time this semester was spent on finding out why the hell this and that work out in this particular module, selfishly neglecting the other modules I have.

This week was definitely one of the hell week in this semester. Two project deadlines and the feared test. Finally it's over. Felt rather happy, but still, it isn't exactly time to rest as yet. Next week's International Business Finance mid sem, Management Accounting 2 the week after, followed by Portfolio Management with another project submission. Tough times ahead. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. I can't wait for my mid semester break. I really need a break.

Cough is still bad. Don't know what's wrong with my lungs. Think I'm gonna go for an x-ray checkup soon to make sure everything's alright. 阿弥陀佛!
