Think wisely people!

On one Sunday, as I walked pass Sunway tes office, there happened to be a crowd of parents and their children enquiring about financial courses like ACCA, ICAEW, CFAB etc.

And yeah I did the same 2 years ago.It wasnt an easy decision as it affects my future career path.

ACCA has turned out to be a cruel course after witnessing and experiencing the harshness of it. Imagine a marathon race, with every participant started running at the same point, but eventually, only some people were able to reach the ending point very quickly whereas some were left far behind, some were even forced to quit the race due to injury and so on. It clearly reflects life in ACCA.

I personally think that many people undermine the consequences for taking ACCA for granted. You will have 10 friends beside you in your first sem but ended up being alone in your final sem. This is no joke. You might also end up being left far behind from your friends who have successfully completed the course and you are still struggling to pass your lower level papers.

But still many people did it, I should feel proud of my friends who manage to toil the days and successfully enter their final year. Some of them even do everyone proud by winning prizes for certain papers. When i ever ask for opinions from seniors who are now working in the top companies regarding ACCA, they would say it's a stressful journey and you will have to be strong to overcome the endless hurdles that are getting into your way but still it is never impossible to reach the end point of it.

MOTIVATE yourself

Despite taking a serious attitude towards it, i wanna tell the world that ACCA is not a course for nerds. We can still enjoy our life to a certain extent that we dont neglect our studies.

MOF

On one of the days in Sunway Pyramid, my friends and I decided to step into the newly opened japanese sweets and coffee shop a.k.a MOF (Ministry of Food) This cafe originates not from Japan but Singapore.

View from the inside

The menu

I ordered this peach shake for RM 13 inclusive of the 10 percent service charge

My friend ordered this the green powder like substance is bitter to eat u have to the round thing with the spices

This one cost RM 8 for small and RM 12 for big. It is more worthwhile to order the big one since there is a huge difference between small and big.

Not too sure what those are, i just took a picture of it at the counter

There're many varieties of other fresh desserts i cant possibly be trying all.There is another branch @ Pavillion for your information. Here's the official website http://www.ministryoffood.com.sg/

Annual Orphanage Movie+Lunch outing

It was Valentine's Day, whilst i was in the midst of indulging myself in a bachelor and bacheleorette party, I received a call from my aunt inviting me to watch a movie with a group of orphans the next day. I accepted the invitation since I do not have much plans other than keeping myself occupied with tonnes of ACCA notes as well as homework.

This was my first time holding such a huge pile of movie tickets. I was very much taken aback when my uncle place those tickets into my custody.

There all together 35 movie tickets worth RM360. (adults+children)AWESOME!

Here are some of the orphans. Look at their excited faces knowing that they were about to catch a movie. =D

We watched The Green Hornet which premiered on the 27th Jan. It was a pretty much anticipated movie i longed for since it starred my favourite chinese artist Jay Chou. Somehow I received negative comments from my friends who had watched the movie and also came across poor reviews/ratings by professional raters.

Comments: Well to put it simple, it's downright disappointing. Jay Chou's acting skills albeit improving from time to time, he still sucks. Emotionless, poor command of English throughout the movie. But i knew he gave his best so I am still proud of him. This movie wasn't as hilarious as it has meant to be. The jokes were pretty much summed up by the 4 letter word L-A-M-E. Most of the time I was 'sweating' instead of 'lol-ing' But still some of the effects and action scenes have to be given credit. So my overall rating for the movie would be 5/10 This is just my personal opinion some people might end up viewing it as a great movie.


The movie ended at 6.00 pm. I was wondering what we were going to have for dinner. And my uncle said we'll dine in a chinese restaurants with the orphans. I heard from my uncle that the kids were tired of eating KFC not to say that they are rich it's just most people sponsored KFC to them. It's not like they could do anything about it. So I guess this would be a very much different meal for them. And so i forgot the name of this chinese restaurant. We booked 5 tables altogether.









These are the group of orphans that are no longer qualified to live in the orphanage. The managed to pursue their studies in college relying on sponsors from their benefactors. Some of them doing hotel, law etc




That's my benevolent aunt giving away angpows to the kids. It's still Chinese New Year period. Sadly I didnt receive any.

NOt forgetting me xD

According to my uncle, not all the orphans do not have parents. In fact some of them do have their own parents just that their mummy and daddy could not afford to raise them. They were resorted to send them to the orphanage so that their children will be taken care of under 2 conditions

1. They must convert their religion into becoming a Christian
2. Their parents cannot meet their children until they reach the age of 17 when the orphanage can no longer have them.

Like everyone else who got involved in this charity activity, I felt totally grateful that i have my mum and my dad with me working so hard to earn a living. Keeping them away from any disappointments is all i could do for now to repay them =D

Primary School Reunion

Nothing to do after lunch at Wazen , the venue for our gathering. I tagged along with 3 friends to Dreambox for a karaoke session. The rest of the peeps headed back home to take care of their own business.

Some of those people who attended today's gathering. Of course I missed those of you who couldnt make it. Thanks to Wei Yi for putting the effort to organize this small gathering. It has really been a while =)

A Bad Day

The first thing i did when i woke up was to look at the clock , OMG half an hour to 11am. I am supposd to go to the management office around that time to look for the certain someone to take me to the store room to get back my things taken away by the hostel management during spring cleaning

The lady at the management told me one week ago, come on saturday to get your things as the cleaner who has the key to the store room would be around. And so when I reached there, DAMN the office door was locked. I reached there at 11 am sharp. The staff promised to come back at 11.10 am as stated on a notice. I decided to wait then since i had longed for this day to retrieve my super expensive sport shoes worth RM220 i bought 2 years ago.

The staff wasnt punctual. He came at 11.20am and he was busy talking to a plumber. I went into the office along with him and decided to start talking after he settled with the plumber. And he suddenly turned to me WHY SO LATE? Before this i was already on fire as i came to the office 2 weeks ago and met this miss Carol who asked me to see Miss Helen one week later and Miss Helen was the one asked me to come on this very day.

I raised my voice a bit '' I am late? Miss Helen told me to come at 11am bla bla bla'' Then that guy said I am not saying you are late i am asking you why you dont want to say the what you want immediately? WTH that guy trying to give me some excuses? Never mind and i just nodded. He went to call that Ms Helen to make sure she really did have an appointment with me. Later Ms Helen appeared in the office and told me to wait while she contacted the cleaner. i waited and waited and i in fact starting to feel impatient. I feel like saying out my frustration with how the hostel management do things.

Then Ms Helen went off after contacting the cleaner. The cleaner arrived around 1145 and we went up to the girl's block where the store room is located. I went there guess what i saw a huge pile of rubbish those things they took away during spring cleaning. I supposed to meet up with my friends for lunch at 12 i told the kakak i go back make a call and come back later the kakak said ok. Then i went off and came back i went into the lift. Sighs this is unlucky i actually wasnt supposed to enter the girl's block lift but somehow i was deperate and entered the lift and as expected the securities stopped the lift and asked me why i explained to them but the security insisted that i couldnt enter like that it's against the rules. She straight away went to the management office and told the guy about it. The guy told me i cant enter like that and things i some how got annoyed and said the hostel management should improve on the way they do things and stopped making people wait. I thought it would be a quick business and would be settled very fast how would i know it would be such a delay.

But somehow he took me up to the store room to meet the kakak. Along the way i complained about their inefficiency and said supposed to meet at 11am but you were late. The guy of course started to defend himself by saying i dont have a business with you it's Ms Helen having business with you. It's not like i could take action on Ms Helen. Haiz after all Ms. Helen is representing the staff of the management you dumbass. He gave me his card when he listened to me complaining and asked me if you got any frustrations just email me i will look at the matter. I was so angry that I started to blurt out it's not like you would do anything or even read it. He said if that is your opinion i cant do anything lor.

I was staring at the pile of rubbish which i didnt even know where to start finding. I just gave up anyhow. That guy said thriumpantly ok ar you giving up then. Signed this document and write there i gave up finding my things. I complied silently. I burst out again of course i cant find la so many things in there and said a few more things i couldnt really remember. That guy just said this place is no more suitable for you to stay. You better go other places. This is a hostel not a hotel. This hostel is too childish for you . YOU are very mature. Ok. Does he have to say all this things to make one feel better? People cant get back their things after a long wait to go to the store room to look for my things. I starting to be impolite i said ya ya and scream at him RUDE!!.. and stormed back to my block.

Subsequent events after exam

It had been a difficult two weeks period for me.. reli studied like hell...Apparently the time available wasnt sufficient enough for me to obtain good marks...however i think passing all the papers should not be a problem except for T6 which i seriously screwed up..T8 is also a dangerous sub as i failed twice during internal exams, plus i lost fairly easy marks just because i didnt read the question properly....I dun care whether it's a marginal pass or high marks pass...i just wanna clear every papers and proceed...#always keeping my fingers crossed#


I think tat's roughly about my exams...I really wasnt into my usual mood during exam period..Anyways right after exam, I went to my friend's apartment ILLEGALLY..and i regretted it...By right i should leave my student ID prior to gaining access to the apartment..Then i stayed in their study room with Daniel..

And this unexpected incident happened, the security guard came into the study room and asked for our hostel ID, I quickly rush into the toilet and called Daniel to inform me after the guard left.....

It was really one of those anxious moments in my life....The guard asked Daniel''Itu kawan kamu yang ke tandas tu'' His replied was ''Bukan saya tak kenal dia" Thank God he reacts very quickly..The guard went into the toilet momentarily but i locked the door....My heart was seriously throbbing ...

Then when the coast is clear, I came out...Ya i was initially relieved that the guard went out of the study room...But still i felt uneasy..some kind of bad intuition....then i suggested to Dan that we go to his room which is safer....I was looking around me for any sight of the guard standing outside....NO ONE...so me and dan headed to his room....AND DAMN the guard suddenly showed up behind of me.....It was damn appalling...''U ikut saya" the guard beckoned me to come over....Reluctantly, i complied with his request...and followed him...Then he taunted at me '' Kenapa u lari ke tandas lepas saya panggil u"...."saya benar-benar nak ke tandas".....Obviously that was a lie but i got no choice i cant say that i wanna avoid you right?

Luckily i wasnt blacklisted or anything...He just say ''you tolong pergi dari sini"....ya and i just walked off without a word..

Initially i plan to go back to my condo but it RAINED!!! i was trapped at foyer with nothing else to do....At first wanna go to the com lab to use the computer but it was closed...then resorted to the library and once again IT WAS CLOSED.....arghh....In the end i slept the bench outside the library....waiting for the rain to stop.....

Then i was startled by a voice '' xian sheng '' I looked up...It was LAWRENCE....i was like what the heck why arent you back home coz his mum was supposed to fetch him home by now but somehow it appeared that there was a heavy jam..so ....thank goodness i found someone there to talk to if not i will be DEAD BORED....

And the rain stopped my friends and I headed to pyramid...we watched one silly cartoon movie...i forgot the title but it's about a girl kissing a frog which causes her to turn into a frog....I dun reli like the musical part of the movie...it reli drived me to drift off.....Fortunately i didnt miss the ending...It's just a normal happy ending story..certainly not worth the 12 bucks at all...

Ya basically that's how my day ended yesterday..

A New Room Mate?

my handsome former room mate (i curi-curi take one) We not so close u cant expect me to say come let's camwhore, it would sound so awkward. XD

Quite neat right hopefully he can keep it up

There was this whole week where I didnt see Andy (my former room mate). He was still my roomy at that time. I thought he might be at his friend's place. So i wasnt really surprise at first.

Ironically, I relished and treasured every single one of those moments of his absence as i could have complete privacy to myself in the room. XD After a week of absence he finally came back one fine morning( i forgot the date). We didnt greet each other as usual. Not being unfriendly la. The two of us barely communicates and greet each the last few months. So was kinda used to it dy. That is why the my room was very quiet despite both of us staying together. Earlier months were still okay. Plus we got really nothing in common other than supporting the same football team MU.

Then i didnt bother much that morning. I just went to class as usual. That afternoon, i came back to my room after dismissal. AND to my horror or rather it was to my surprise his bed was empty as if no one has ever slept there before. His study table, cupboard everything was empty. Every possession of his were gone. I immediately jumped into conclusion that he had either moved out or went back for sem break. Without hesitation, i sms-ed him to unravel my curiosity.




This was his reply '' I moved out and I am having holidays now"..I was dumbstruck. What the heck? I didnt even know that he was shifting to another unit as his room mate you know. If people know about this they would laugh at me. It was like no communication at all. You should have told me man then i can say a proper goodbye to you.



Looking at a different angle, i feel ecstatic man!!!!!!!!I OWNED the room now, the entire room since i thought my new room mate would most probably move in next year.


But my hopes and excitement was dampened by.....here the story goes, 2 days later, when i opened the door to my room, to my horror again, i saw books and clothes at my former roomy's place. I was like confused and shocked. Has someone just moved in? I asked myself. The answer was very obvious and it just lied in front of my eyes. (as u can see in the above pic)



I immediately called my mum and told her about it. I was hoping that my new room mate isnt a negro, a malay or indian or any international student. Not being racist here. It is due to our difference in lifestyle. My friend's indian room mate brought her BF to sleep over you know. It was damn disgusting. I prayed hard that he is a chinese who is quiet and neat.That is my ideal room mate haha. Err well it has been almost 2 weeks now. But i still have not seen him so far. Maybe he's having his holidays. Cant wait to meet him when he comes back. Of course la i do miss Andy but we may still see each other once a while since we will still be staying in the same condo. When can I say hi to you ar new room mate? But judging from his clothes he is rather big in size. I AM DOOMED
