Villanova vs Pittsburg
I've never watched NCAA basketball before.
But the match between Villanova and Pittsburg was a classic!!
72-76 - 35 seconds to go.
Vlilanova was leading by 4.
They allowed Pittsburg centre no. 45 to score with 4 guys on defence. (They were sleeping probably).
74-76.
Then with about 20+ seconds to go, Villanova threw a full court inbound pass to one of their players. But it was a bad pass and all he could do was to pass to a Pittsburg player.
He quickly dished out to his teammates and this guy was fouled before he attempted a shot.
As both teams were over the team foul limits (In NCAA, you go to the FT line automatically after you get fouled when your opponents have more than 10 team fouls)
This player made both FTs and game on at 76-76
5.5seconds left on the clock....
Then came the final play when Scott Reynolds of Villanova ran from half court after a pass from his team mates and he did the stuff of legend....
Scored a short 2 points (Driving past people and dodging players) and all Pittsburg could do was to throw a long shot harmlessly off the board...
Final score - Villanova-Pittsburg 78-76.
Well, to me, none of the teams lost.
They played to the best of their abilities, albeit mistakes here and there.
It was a GREAT game to watch.
Although it's not NBA standard, but it was great to watch.
The hunger, desire and thirst for success.
I believe that all of us should emulate that kind of attitude.
With that attitude, all things are possible.
Redbull keeps us alive (At times).
I have to be alive!!!!!
Today's Quek's birthday!
Wish him a good one if you haven't.
Less than 4 hours though.
Can't believe that he's already 22.
So who? - My fav qns.
lol. What a jk.
I just want to get OUT! And get things done.
Make things happen!
Miss home all of a sudden (:
All is good though.
Ha ha.
This holiday is going to be different.
Prayer, reading and research.
Need a week of that.
Can't wait for my hols.
Till then, peace.
Bryan loves you!!!!
All of you.

Morning!
So I was in the mood for all the kings in Jeremiah days!
King Josiah was a good king. But he did not have a person that could succeed him. His sons, Shallum (Jehoahaz) and Eliakim (led under the name Jehoiakim) and subsequent leaders from that line could not follow suit.
Anyway, read it for your own benefit. Jeremiah is a really good book to read and do start reading the Word as it gives faith!
Anyway, it has been a morning of cleaning and cleaning. Bedsheets, vacuuming, arranging and re-arranging stuff inside my cupboard. It looks so much work-able now.
Some news lately:
The US has announced details of a plan to buy up to $1 trillion (£686bn) worth of toxic assets to help repair banks' balance sheets.
I think this is a good news for everyone. These toxic assets were the cause of most bank failures. Toxic assets - Mortgage and other assets, for example mortgage backed securities. Due to the high default rates of the assets, we call them toxic assets (You are kind of bound to lose money - which isn't very healthy - that's why it's toxic I reckon). It gives a chance for the banks to recover faster than normal with the aid of this plan.
How does it work?
Well, I ripped it from the US treasury website as it is hard to explain:
The assets are those mortgage or asset backed securites which are pretty "toxic" in that case!
Well, this is just a dummy illustration. I don't think most of them would bid $84 for such assets (Too high).
Ok. coming back to earth!

Well, I ripped it from the US treasury website as it is hard to explain:
- Bank seeks to sell pool of mortgages worth $100
- Private auction decides that asset is now worth $84
- Private investor and government put up $6 each
- They then borrow remaining $72 from government
- That loan is guaranteed against any losses
- If asset is later sold at higher price, government makes profit and private investor pays back loan and pockets profit.
- If asset is sold at lower price, government and private investors could lose initial investment
The assets are those mortgage or asset backed securites which are pretty "toxic" in that case!

Justin's b'day party!
Just came back from Justin's 21st.
It was awesome.
Ha ha. I thoroughly enjoyed myself though.
Caught up with many people and get to know some people much better.
Spare the details, but I believed that Justin had a hell load of a day!
He played an excellent host as well.
The speech part was amazing.
His dad and mum just gave an amazing speech about him that moved the crowd of people!
(=
Overall, it was a good day!
Love Ya!

Lead me Your Way....
Sometimes, after running for sooo long, you need to take a breather.
I did, 5 mins ago.
Was just studying CAPM.... CAPM..... and CAPM.
Fama-MacBeth and Black, Jensen and Scholes.
All these people... made life harder for Finance students.
Basically what they want to do is just to let us know whether there is a correlation between beta (risk) and Expected Return.
Oh yeah. So they must make us remember so many Finance people (or what do you call finance expert? Financial-ist)
Prayed a couple of things, but some I wouldn't share, maybe at the right time.
When you're at this point of your life.. University, things get a little bit complicated. You worry about a lot of things. Career, money, relationships and a lot of other nitty gritty stuff. Like who doesn't.
And sometimes, like today, I just lift everything up to Him and said a little prayer.
Nothing complex, but the presence filled that room.. and that spirit within me.
Maybe times and seasons are different for many things around us, but our love for God and convictions in life should never be in winter.
I used to love soccer so much that I watch everything on EPL (even your 19th pos vs your 20th pos) - Like West Brom vs Blackburn kind (I've no idea who's there now). Maybe partially due to coverage, I don't even watch Man Utd matches... Ha ha. The 1-4 thrashing would be humilating to watch. I would switch off the TV if Man Utd were trailing by 1-3. Ok too much info. Getting back to CAPM.

Routine
Routines are here to stay!

Gym yesterday was really good.
Just like we have every Tuesday and Friday!!
Hah!
TG that today's presentation was postponed to next Wednesday!
Yeah. I have more time to study for tomorrow's 50pages of notes!
lol. Getting through page one is certainly not very easy!
lol.
Anyway, gotta put in the hardwork and do well for this quiz!

What's life?
Ha ha. What's life in Uni, especially in a tri-semester uni!?
Non-stop projects and work.
Corporate on Monday!
Although it's just 2 chapters, I've got to really study and do well for it.
Man!!
Oh yeah, gym yesterday with Koshi was awesome.
It's good to have a mate that you can do gym with.
We kept on saying encouraging words to each other - 4 more, come on, so strong.
lol. Yeah. I think those little factors really work.
The message bible says "By yourself, you're unprotected, but with a friend, you can face the worst" . Don't ever say you don't need anyone, because that is absolutely not true. I have to say that friends are really important, for good or for bad!

Whahah
Something just struck my mind.
Pst Joakim once said that if salvation is based on looks, then he'll be the only person that can go to heaven. Lol. I just laugh to myself (alone after thinking about this). Lol.
Preachers these days have to have an element of jokes inside their sermons.
Pastor How was absolutely funny yesterday.
I would say that he got the crowd in a matter of minutes, or even seconds.
Lol. Absolutely cool!
Hmmmm.... Special special.

Sunday Service
Week 8 of Uni I'm in, isn't that sick!?
Ha ha. Yeah and Pastor How preached yesterday for 3 services at C3 Robina.
It was certainly fantastic to have Pastor How preached in this wonderful church!!
Spent quite some quality time with them this time round and I totally enjoyed it.
I haven't been blogging, but hanging around people of faith certainly makes you feel larger, larger than anything.
Pastors message this week was absolutely good, although I have listened to both sermons (First two sermons are the same) before, fresh revelation comes all the time!
The insights I have are very very good.
Apart from all these, I certainly got to know Dom and Jon much better as well. Lol.
Yes, ha ha.
I think that people click much better when they goals and vision are one.
Time will just make up whatever differences they may have.
If I have all the time in the world. (As in 1 year in one day)
If you know what I mean.
It wouldn't be good for our parents as they would have to work 365*21-22 years before we can be independent. lol. Sorry for all the mathematical formulas. But anyway, I just had Corporate Finance and you know what kind of Zone I'm in right now.
Yes yes. So much more to talk about all of them, but then, so little time.
Rinnah is at her cutest.
She really loves hugs.
I reckon part of her is caucasian. Maybe somewhere deep down she is probably? lol.
Yeah. I guess humans in general love hugs.
Me too. I love a good hug from anyone, anytime.
Bear hug between men shows real men spirit. lol.
Anyway, lessons ended at 2 pm today! WHooo. gotta check my results now

notitle.
I'm absolutely blessed by Ps Don's message tonight.
It was timely.
And it changed my perspective in some ways.
He talked about connections.
It might seem to be the same old topic, but when our hearts are opened, it is not.
We can draw something out of the same old topic all the time....
The importance of connections.
Some practical steps he gave.. And I'm really going to apply it.
Ring 2 person this week.... MSN or SMS just isn't enough
Meet someone for lunch..... Face 2 Face
This is awesome.
Pastors will be here this week!
Ha ha. What a privilege to see Pastors this week at C3 Robina.
But meanwhile, I'm mugging hard for Corporate Finance.
Well... It seems to be a night where I can't get much sleep again. lol.
Nevertheless, I've to press on.
The bed is so tempting, but still, I have to press on.
Agency problems? We can solve it ourselves I reckon....
So what about stockholders and bondholders issue? dots.
So what types of financing do you reckon will work? Equity or debt.
What is cheaper?
Blahx. These are just the basics. More in depth later.
After tomorrow!!!! Things will look better.
Press on Bryan.
Press on......
Ha ha. I've never type things like this, I guess the sermon tonight had an effect on me.
