End of First Year First Semester Tests! - Part #1: Devastation...):

BOOYA!

its my first time posting via my lappie. KEKE!

FINALLY, its over. :DD my End Semester Tests are finally over. Recap, i had 3 papers. the first paper was Principle of Management (POM) on Friday (24Aug) which was in the morning at Temasek Convention Centre (TCC), then we had the weekend to prepare and rest. Yesterday (27Aug), i had my Microeconomics paper. and tbh, im having mixed feelings abt Microecons paper. on one hand i'm pretty happy cause the test is FINALLY over. On another hand, I'm kinda troubled cause although I did manage to complete the paper, I did have some difficulties while doing the paper... Like for some questions I had certain doubts in my answers. And on another hand, I'm super sad, cause this will mean that there will no longer be anymore Microeconomic lecture or tutorial! That means the most awesome lecturer and tutor (I swear, that is the total truth!) will no longer be teaching me! ):

Super sad that next semester, mr Vincent Lim won't be teaching Macroeconomics...):

okay, to be honest, typing on a keyboard is kind of hard as there is no autocorrect and long period staying away from the keyboard has rendered my fingers no longer as agile as before... /: AND ALSO, I'm unable to type neither Japanese, Chinese nor Korean *le sigh.

But, I really do feel that if I don't blog now, when I crawl on my bed, I will most likely be so lazy that I won't even bother to blog. So I rather keep my blog alive and endure my awkward typing...):

anyway, back to topic. Today was my core paper. Meaning it was the test for my core subject. Each course will have different core subject and in order to be promoted, one must first pass that core subject. If you fail, well... I'm not to sure about this... I did not listen to this part... /: but it definitely ain't nice if you fail any subjects (especially your core subject) on your first year first term. For Accounting and Finance, as you probably might have already guess, my core subject is Financial Accounting #1. And although I've said that I had little confidence for my other 2 papers. But for this paper, I have really really the minimal confidence I had for any of the papers in my life (NOTE: this is the feeling I felt immediately after the paper ended). I came out feeling super low. Like out of 3 open ended questions, I could only understand and properly do the last question. And to me that was really, super fail. I was so devastated that the word 'accounting' just brought tears to my eyes. I really thought that I should have expected this. Cause compared to my other 2 subjects, I spent the less revision time on Accounting compared to Micro and POM. But I had reasons. Firstly, FA is a practical paper, there was seriously little point in practicing the night before, cause it won't work. Secondly, FA is one of my stronger modules whereas POM I had trouble in remembering the concepts what more understanding. In addition, Micro had the worst grade for my Mid Semester Test (MST). So I felt that I should concentrate more on the other 2...

Maybe I had made a wrong choice with studying so little for FA... but after thinking it over, and have people talking to me, I realized that no matter what, I tried my best doing the questions, I rationalized each answer I was about to fill in and thought carefully about it. For questions that I could not understand, I tried my very best to conjugate a smart guess on the meaning and tried to derive a solution. And most importantly, I left no blanks.

Now, I kind of don't regret that I spent more time on my other 2 subjects. Cause if I had spread my time out evenly among my 3 subjects, I would not have been that prepared for my weaker 2 subjects and might risk skipping out points that might come out in the exam. So, I don't think that I did wrong by placing more priority on my weaker 2 subjects - which happened to be very theory based.

However, I will admit that I could have worked for better time management for revision. Well, everything is a learning lesson. So now, I learnt (the hard way) that I must have proper time management.(:

Around dinner, my brother was telling me that not to worry as it isn't that easy to fail in Polytechnic...Well, I'm not sure how true/accurate that is... But hopefully it's true... /: I already secured an A for coursework, but coursework is 40% so people (including my brother) were reasoning with me that because I made sure I did all the questions, it is impossible for me to get a big fat duck egg. Cause there might be method mark, error-carried forward marks, and (maybe; one can always hope!) leniency mark. And as the last question which I know how to do is where the percentage of the mark laid (Thank God!), so there is still a chance that I can pass with an okay grade. And because I have an 'A' for coursework, so it will average out to be a little better. Which after thinking calmly, I realized that what they have said were pretty true.

Even if it wasn't, what can I do? It is already done. Its not like thinking about it will change what has already happened. The things that happened are already jotted down and is irreversible. Now all I can do is pray and learn from this mistake.

Well, that's all from my depressed post! [ Part#2 - THE afterparty ] will be up shortly(:

JYAN!

Feel the goodness! |24Aug 2012|

OH HAI!

Today (or rather yesterday...) was lik an okay day. More to the positive end (:

Well yesterday was the start of the exam period for me. Well for me, I only have 3 papers - Microeconomics, Principle of Management and Financial Accounting 1. Fortunate me. And all three are sorta in running order. Yesterday was day 1, next Monday would be day2 and finally day3 (the final day) wld be on a Tuesday!(:

So today I woke up, brushed up and took bus to school. Today's exam venue was at Temasek Convention Centre (TCC) so instead of alighting at Mushroom, i alighted one stop after mushroom. And don't want to elaborate any further, met up with Carissa, Reneé and JiaHui and headed to TCC. Got seated and exam started.

Managed to complete it in time with 10 minutes to spare. And really thank God that all the stuff that I actually revise/read through remained in the correct compartment and won't mixed up! Praise the Lord! I was super worried cause like POM is the most boring subject of this semester. And even in the morning of the paper, if somebody asked me something in relation to POM, I would most likely just stare at them with the very blank look cause I really really thought I could not remember anything and was close to freaking out. But thank God that when it came to answering the questions, all the answers (that I read up) could come out. Really really praise the Lord! (:

When exam ended, walked out of TCC and met my 언니 by coincidence and we went to school Macdonald to buy drink! I bought my regular Minute Maid Orange Juice (seriously, it's just a scam to make people think that they are drinking a more healthy choice. But are they really drinking a more healthy choice drink? Meh) and 언니 bought Milo. Once that was done, we went to bustop and while walking through market, saw Demas and gang. And as expected, only Demas (or was there more? Don't know, never observe) waved 'Hi&Bye' so I just waved and continued the conversation I was having with my 언니. While waiting for the bus, Demas and the full gang walked towards the bustop. Well not stoping them. I mean this isn't my personal bustop. So they can use it for all I care. Haha! Anyway, bus eventually came, and me and 인니 boarded. Initially I thought they will board too. But turned out, they didn't. Oh well *shrugs.

On the way to interchange, saw Eugene - for the 3rd time in the day - had small talks when bus reached interchange before he alighted.

NOTE: conversations that I had with 언니 either contain hints of mature contents or I just plainly cannot remember.

Reached home just in time to see kor preparing for school. Today he also has a paper. Had small talk, then I went to eat my lunch. Wished him luck then he went off to school and I went to nap. Napped for like 2-3hrs before finally waking up.

After awhile, my 남편이 was like asking me if I took Microeconomics. Then i was like yeah, and she was like asking if she could call me to ask something, and i was okay. So she called, and we chatted for awhile before putting down for her to call me using Viber and 'teach' me some Microeconomics stuf that i was confused about. After clarifying, we hung up and I begun reading fanfiction from the app "Wattpad"

Wattpad is generally like a fanfiction application where people can post and read fanfiction. It's like fanfiction.net, but smaller and have an app. I created an account cause i had to to view the fanfiction. To whoever reading this, of you are interested, go to this website

http://www.wattpad.com

And search for the writer 'lyuhyejin' that's my pen-name for wattpad(:

Anyway, soon it was dinner, had dinner and watched abit of Ju Mong while having a short twitter conversation with 언니 on how bad Ju Mong is in term of common sense and acting. After dad returned with a cake and told me separately that the cake is meant for my mum (and also another church lady) and tell me to tell my siblings that they will be cutting the cake after cell group. And I was like okay(; so when their cell was ending, me along with my siblings began to get ready the cake (for pictures search me up on Instagram @ilovetomatoes).

After eating the cake, I went back to my room and began to sort my photos as it was taking up too much space on my iPhone): and Im like super sad cause some of the legit photos are deleted and I haven't made a copy of it on my PC. I must find a more efficient way of updating the photos not I will seriously cry cause its such a pain in the ass to ensure that I already have this photo on my lappie. And sometimes some legit photos are just deleted cause i missed them out when copying and deleted them without duplicating the picture >:( one example is the photos I took when I changed my spectacles to my current one /: haish):

Also download some songs. Then, prepared to sleep.

Lolol! Now I'm suppose to be sleeping. But I'm blogging! Haha! Shall sleep after this blog is posted! Keke!

Had been a long and rather positive day! Super glad! Keke! :DD

Shall end this post with a family picture!(:

JYAN!
