Interesting news from the pope.

Pope Benedict, who reportedly confesses his sins once a week, last year issued his own voice of disquiet on the subject.

"We are losing the notion of sin," he said. "If people do not confess regularly, they risk slowing their spiritual rhythm."

Ohhh. Work!

Today was one of the busiest day I ever had in Uni.
Happily busy though.
I feel good when I'm actually doing things.
I enjoy it!

Ha ha.....
Yes! Portfolio Investment work!
It is good!
I'm so fortunate to have 2 amazing people working alongside me.
We did so much together since Saturday and have been meeting everyday since Saturday while doing our own part in our very own time and space.
Well. It's 25% of the total assignment and we want to do our BEST to secure the grades that we want!

Ha ha. Yeah. I'm stoked about this project and I'm raring to go for it tomorrow!
Tell me about it mate!
I love it man.
One thing I need now - Sleep.
Dark rings all over due to lack of sleep.

Had a good chat with FX yesterday online.
Shared about everything that we can ever share.
Well.. He keeps on going away...and I waited for him for quite a bit though!
lol.

Anyway, tomorrow is going to be an unreal day!
Love ya!

P.S.: Ben and Chelle are new parents as of today!
Stoked to death for them!

Daily Prayer....

There are things I pray for everyday...
Even Subconsciously.
H a h a.

Spent the whole of yesterday (Well, mostly) at Uni.
Had a meeting with the smarty Danielle.
I couldn't figure out any of the questions though, but she did most the assignment that is meant to be handed in on Friday!

Lol. Felt bad....
Had a Corporate Finance class after that.
Was trying to keep myself awake.
Test result for the Corporate Finance was out (Lol. It was an unannounced quiz though).
I got full marks.
First thing I checked was the handwriting.
lol. I was kind of shock. lol.
I did not study for it and basically used logic to answer all the questions.
Follow you heart when the going gets tough.
But I reckon I'm gonna be more on my toes for the next few "Unannouced quiz".

After that, had a Corporate Finance Group meeting, which didn't go that well...
Then Portfolio meeting.
(Well, I seem like a big businessman).
But anyway, I'm still survivin..

Fortunately, there're no lessons today!
Ha ha.
Cool!
Gym later. But before that. More research.

Bryan Yeeeee....XX

Curious case of Benjamin Button

It's been out for quite a while already... I know...
But I only got to catch this movie this morning.
I reckon this is one of the earliest movies I have ever caught... At 10a.m.

I was nearly late for the movie..
Lol. Reached the bus stop at 10a.m.
The bus was playing games with me today.
It was scheduled to reach at 9.35a.m. but it arrived at 9.45 instead.
Apart from that, they took a detour... Lol.
What a day to start with.

It was nice catching up with my goodie friend again! lol.
The person prefers to keep itself unknown.

Anyway....After the movie we had coffee and snacks..
After a good long chat, I headed back to Uni. It was my first movie since week 1. Well. I reckon I do not have the time to catch any till probably week 13-14? Lol. Just guessing..
Everything seemed to be planned.
Went to Uni's very comfy sofa and had a good rest before my lesson.
It was a great day though.
Am going to catch up with International Trade right now
TTYS.....

Bryan

A week!

盖世英雄演唱会...in Taipei.

I think Lee Hom is really talented after watching his concert in Taipei.
Lol. Not that I went there...
But he's really good.
Very talented.

Had 2 classes today..
Talking about comparative advantage. Well, similar to the one in JC, but still pretty different.
Ricardian model of trade....
lol. We look at 1 factor in this tute...
As the weeks go, more factors are going to be added!

Anyway.... Basketball time is here to come!

Bryan!

Week 3....

Week 3 of Uni already....

Ha ha. Guess it should be 4 or 5 in Singapore right now.
But anyway, life here has been alright!
If those Finance and Economics theory could have been more enjoyable... Maybe life would have been better?
Lol. Jk.. They are pretty alright.

Anyway.... I came across an amazing Chapter in Jeremiah..
Jeremiah 18

The Potter and the Clay

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying: 2 “Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause you to hear My words.” 3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something at the wheel. 4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter; so he made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make.
5 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: 6 “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter?” says the LORD. “Look, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel! 7 The instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, to pull down, and to destroy it, 8 if that nation against whom I have spoken turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I thought to bring upon it. 9 And the instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it, 10 if it does evil in My sight so that it does not obey My voice, then I will relent concerning the good with which I said I would benefit it.
11 “Now therefore, speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Behold, I am fashioning a disaster and devising a plan against you. Return now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good.”

Love this chapter heaps as it talks about us... We are the clay and God is our potter.
The final product is dependent on the quality of the clay.
What type of clay we are determines the quality of the final product.

Anyway.... I have a quiz later on at 4p.m.
That's pretty fast ehh..
On top of that, I have an assignment due tomorrow which I'm almost done with.
Yuppz.

Caught up for a coffee with Bec yesterday and we exchange some culture of our own.
Ha ha. Was kind of interesting.
Maybe I really need to have more European friends.
Gotta get the hang of speaking some more European languages..

Lol.

Have a nice day!

Cool day!!!

Had a good Tuesday myself...

Went to look for career development lady.
In between that and gym, I read an article about Porsche's boss and how he outfoxed the market.
Markets these days are practically on a bear. But the CEO of Porsche kind of took up more shares in Volkswagon and as a result, got more profit from his revenue.....

It sounds ridiculous in the previous sentence because we all learn in school that Profit = Revenue - Cost, but while that is accounting standard way of looking at things, the Finance people have our way of looking at things... Ha ha. Well, I'll leave the research to you guys on why it can happen. But it does happen in real life though.

Anyway, February is a full on month!!!
Ha ha.
I'm settled down and raring to go now.
It took me a couple of days though to get used to seeing so many caucasians... lol.
And the really "wacky" accent. America's accent is much better for the ear.. I reckon.
Well.. Personal opinion though and no offense.

Weee.. Had gym today.. Did almost an hour (Better than last week, for sure!)
and after that, had 2 full court basketball game and my team won both.
Yeah. I had to be on my best though. Lol. It was certainly a great game!
Well, since I've already paid the ever inflated AU$110 for my activities fee, I must as well used it to the fullest.

Anyway.... Aust number is still the same.. text me or anything folks!

Bryannn

6a.m.

It's no longer 6a.m. now...
But I did woke up at 6a.m. today!
Lol. There's no Uni today though...
Just wanna make it a good habit to wake up early in the morning!

Anyway, I had a great weekend.
On Saturday, Mike and I went cycling!
We cycled from my place to the beach (It's about 20 kms back and forth)
Ha ha. It was quite fun but I am sore from it.
He taught me a few tricks, including how to ride down from stairs.
It was certainly good fun.

Just week 3... Workload is hectic.
Plus computer's not working....
Not the best time here Mr Com!
Lol.

Anyway, have a good one people!
