Haven been updating very much on this limited readership blog of mine.
Work has been ok,except tat A/P has a large large pile of Backlog,and suppliers are always chasing for payment everytime.
Is it our side tat defers payment or just that the other party are in crisis need of cash and liquidity?I hope it's the latter..Boss has told me to concentrate on my side of the suppliers and nt let this affect me...just as well
Church has been pretty enriching,understanding the verses and expounding of them when one's free makes the whole Bible a really interesting book to read.
Workplace at Pasir Panjang makes the whole travelling period really long plus earlier waking up time,arghh...but it is at PP tat at lunch time u look ard tat pple are more properly dressed,unlike Taman Jurong whereby pple arent tat formally dressed..accompanied by is the higher food price,haha..
Wondering whether to sign up for the Singapore Biathlon next yr...did a time trial and found my timing to be just 2.5 mins short of the cut off time,aka 37 mins plus plus ...to add the open water swim condition under the calm and montonus condition of the swimming pool...but if I dont attempt nw,i dun thk i be able to attempt it in a few yrs time,haha...

KEPPELites
Keppelites,tats wat I am called along with those who work at Keppel.
Worklife has it's downside as well as it's upside,downside would be the early morning wakes tat makes u wakes up early even on days u do not have to work....while upside is,gaining experience on accounting practice,usage of software.
I would say wat I learnt in UOL are for decision making at a higher level,unlike now where I prepare and pass journals..prepare scheldues and ensure tat the whole process flow is not errorneous. I guess I would ultimately have to start frm scratch until the point where I can detect a problem using a very short period of time.
Just gt bk on a cruise a week ago,funny enough,during the my UOL examinations,I aspired to go onboard a cruise alone and jus enjoy not doing anything or aka slacking...I gt the chance this time,but alas,it was boring and monotonous. With me showing luckstruste in casino and gambling stuffs,I was made to roam alone without anyone.And man,it was real boring...imagine patronizing the gym 2-3 times a day,reading whole men's health book,swimming "laps" in that upsized baby pool...I promise I m nt boarding a cruise alone in the future or anytime soon...companion helps,it's was just that during my UOL exams,I hated interference or thoughts tat could affect my chain of thoughts...I am nt saying I am using my brain lesser now or instead of chain of thoughts,it has become a thread measuring 2 inches...bt many a times,wat I feel is normally different from the actual thing,so jus go do it...
Signed up for ACCA membership,looks like it gonna be quite tough from next yr,having to juggle both work life and ACCA,esp with high ACCA failure rate..nevertheless I shall make it my next target in life which is to complete my ACCA...
A person needs smthg to push on,smthg to look forward to..I guess I am still looking for tat thg..I dont know wats tat..hopefully I am able to find "tat thg"..hahaha..
Went back a couple of times for TKD,Yidojiang spirit is much stronger now esp with a new Sir's fellow mates coming bk...I was thkg while I indeed spend most of my sats doing tkd,in elite or at Tanglin..this in fact aided me in saving money..Gg for the conversion which tentaively is in the 2nd wk of Nov...
Continuing to improve and not resting on my laurels,to aspire to be a better person would be my aim.I have to put down tat clownly image and tat funnily humourous personality...guess gotta be more serious now...

WhaT A BANG!
It's has been incredibly long since I last updated this blog,9 of May in fact.
Last paper of Audit and Assurance was pretty tough,unlike in previous year where case studies whereby answers could be easy traced or linked to were no more seen. Hopefully,I am able to pass this module,but yet my fear lies in Management Accounting and not Audit...Results' be out in the last week of August,1 week earlier than previous hopefully, that's a good sign tat papers were relatively well done compared to last year and therefore were a breeze to mark....but hopefully not on the opposite..anticipate for that day..
Back from Ho Chih Minh City,Vietnam quite sometime ago...Vietnam was more of understanding their war,went to the war reunification palace,had rather deep feelings after touring it...It's a nice city,people there are generally heplful...Explored their cui chi tunnel which serve as an important base during the war and also their Mekong Delta which serve as a vital river for their daily needs,employability and also means of accessiblity...also the 1st time where I saw river signboards of direction along the river.
Vrung Tau, an island off HCMC was spectacular as well...meet a few vietnamese selling souveniers and coconut drinks, surprised that they could speak good mandarin,friendly people who offered to explained the tourist spots on that island.
The beach is nice, though the water is not as clear as Tioman..could see an interesting sight--which was people eating crabs by the shore. Mind you,their crabs are flower crabs which are sold on the shore and are only cooked only when someone orders it, imagine crab claw in 1 hand, a can of beer in another,hearing the sea waves hitting against the shore...NICE...
Toured a portion of Ben thye market, 1 thing that one shouldnt miss is the seafood there..nice,their prawns whether BBQ or steamed taste equally good, their beef,yes beef taste nice not those alike those whose texture taste like bubble gum...they use a special type of sauce which taste a bit like sour plum plus soya sauce, and it isnt bad tasting..
Made a few friends there,including a french guy, British couple and a swiss guy....oh yea, Josh if u r reading this blog,u still own the British couple smthg ar..LOL...
Tried their massage services there which I would say was a matter of polarisation, we went for 2 massages,1 was by the Association of the visually handicapped which cost S$5 and the other costed me US20 #$%^&*(...haha..bt it was nt bad,given that this was the 1st time i tried full body massage and the latter had sauna n steam altogether,Conclude that Full body massage adds little to my utility..haha,guess all the pressing and thumping just isnt my cup of tea...it's hard to miss massage services there since massage shops are almost anywhere...
Vietnam's traditional food "Pho" pronounced as fur consists of kway teow and beef or chicken...it taste real good,the soup and the bouncy kway teow makes a good combination,I think we had that no less than 4 times over there..haha..
Lastly, people like Miss Vy, our hostel owner who took the extra effort to patiently explain to us the tourist hotspots in HCMC that made us save a substantial amount of time and effort..she has indeed made us have a lasting positive impression...
Overall, this trip has made me more respectful of Vietnamese, their magnificent tactics and strategies used during the war has already left me dazzled and proud to be an Asian...Hardworking people who at 7am,when u go on to the street with blury eyes,they are already in their shops serving people...1 positive trait that is highly valued by me..

Bye bye 2nd Upp...
It's farewll to my 2nd upp Hons for I doubt I be getting anything near there cept to settle for a miserable lower.
Yes,Chip's on my side to argue of the tight exam scheldule,blame my lect for focusing too much on unimportant chaps,but afterall the decision of whether or not to work hard still lies with me.These past few weeks compared to the last few weeks to exam last year differs miles apart.This might be a whining post but I hope,really hope that these last few days before the arrival of exam will be of a more intense pace.Seriously.
There's nthg to evaluate where I am standing nw,nt yet been to tat EXPO to take the exam so far whereas some of my frens at this moment has only 1 paper left. And it helps,the notion/thought that yes,the exam has already started,and I have to abstain from this from tat and really hit the books n start mugging.I know what's its like to walk into the hall unprepared and the heave of relief when the invigilator collected ur last paper,guess this been a pretty awakeining msg for me..
Guess for now,the relief of my last paper being collected by the invigilator on the 27th would be my target.Picture that and look forward to tat.

Frustrated la
Agony,frustrations!!argh...my trigger point of anger seems to be pretty low nowadays.Perhaps it's due to my laziness of not studying adequately sufficent to quote the minimun compared to last yr.
Indeed,after 2 papers...one ,psychology,gave me much hope in the sense that if u study,understand all those too eng thoerists and memorise a bit ..hmm it doesnt seems so bad after al..
Second one,Management accounting,understimated it and seriously..it isnt one subject where one could smoke thru...this explains the emphasis James has been telling us all yr round...
With 2 papers to go,I got to really buckle up and see what i can do to salvage this disatrous prelim..
Really wonder wat trigger or activates one sense or should i say feeling of unfairness,the eagerness of wanting to correct an behaviour or an action..wish I could turn off mine permanently and be one slacker waiting to be followed..
Perth trip has more or less been confirmed,this coming June..Many thanks to xiwen,jin n Han,for their sacrifice of time to coordinate this trip..hopefully my expenses wont be too high..if bungee jumping's on the itnery,i would be eager to try,but wonder will i make the leap..haha..
CNY been a pretty blast in the sense that it was a thorough twist from the monotonous behaviour of studying...did all the usual stuffs,feeling decreased a bit,i realised i was looking forward to CNY nt because of the renuion or foodies,bt more to the 3 days of break..haha..
Alrite,back to the studies now..
