I'm on a roll now....
Ha ha. In terms of blogging that is.

Balance Sheet, Income Statement.... Making them make sense to the normal humans.. That's what I do!
Just had lunch at a pretty good restaurant at Robina Town...
You wouldn't believe it.
The new Robina Town Centre looks so good.
With the new extension... It beats Singapore Powerhouse Shopping Centre like Vivocity hands down. The number of restaurants speak for itself.....

Church was good this morning.
Met a new guy today from Colombia coming over to OZ to learn English.
Ha ha. We talked about football..
He almost played professionally if not for his studies.
LOL. If he does, I hope he'll play for United. Such a good personality that everyone in the dressing room will like.
In terms of skills, I'm not sure. He didn't mention about his skills, but he plays the AMC - where Zidane and Scholes play.

Ciao!

Tickets?

Ha ha. I've booked my flight back home.....
Don't worry.. It's not going to be anytime soon (That's all I'm gonna say).
Don't get me all excited yet.

3 exams.... 1 presentation.
So many things at one go.
I still want a life in between.

Get a date.. And go to Hawaii - Lol. That's a joke.

Man. I'm taking small breaks in between studying to watch Hakeem Olajuwon.
If I ever get some time to share it with people, I would.
He's not a Christian, but he possessed every quality that all sane humans should have.
I bet a lot of people have not heard of him yet.
But in terms of Basketball skills, he's up there.
That's why there are a lot of underrated players....

Jordan and Johnson shine in their prime because they're well marketed.
But not players like Hakeem.
In terms of Centre position, I would say he's certainly the best.
No.1 Centre of all time....
better than O'Neal, Ewing, Abdul Jabber and I could say on par with Wilt Chamberlain.
I saw him play against the first 3 and he dominated them.
He beat a young O'Neal, Ewing and totally crushed regular season MVP D.Robinson in the NBA Finals.
I guess if EPL doesn't start sooner, I would be rooted to the basketball game... All day if I had a chance to. lol.

Anyway.

What a day!!

Ha ha.. Exam on Monday..

But let me tell you what did I do today..
Went to the gym in the morning.
And had a chilly day working out.

Then, head to church at night for Rise and Build.
I have not been to building fund services in HoGC for 2 years already.
However, I still have an opportunity to give to God in this amazing place!!!
Love the vision that c3 churches have.
2020 vision (:.
I will almost be supportive of great men's vision.

It was NBA 2009's draft as well!
And the first pick this year went to the L.A. Clippers - Blake Griffin.
He plays well.
If you haven't watch him yet, GO!
The impact that he's going to make depends on himself.
But I believe if he continues his performance from his freshman year, he'll be the next LeBron James...

Well, he can't be Kobe nor Jordan because they are not the first in their draft picks.
Jordan was the 3rd pick in 1984, behind Hall of Famer Hakeen Olajuwan (He is someone I really admired... Although I have never really watch him play, Youtube videos helped me roll back the years...) and Sam Bowie (His career didn't go down that well). Kobe Bryant's the 13th pick in 1996 draft (Straight out of high school, 17 years old, mini fro, althletic and great hunger and desire like Jordan which just can't be taught. 1996 NBA draft was one of the best as well. Allen Iverson was the first pick - He helped Philly get to NBA finals a couple of times. Then there's Steve Nash, Jermaine O'Neal, Ray Allen and several others). No matter how people always say Kobe is better or Jordan is better - They are my all time favourites. Kobe Bryant makes you feel like a fool and players more than half a decade younger can't really catch him when he's on the drive. That's how good he is. Jordan dominates.

Well.... Too much. Gotta go.

Day day day

We have a Re-Exam for Game Theory after all!!!

So whatever that is done in Week 6 is not taken into consideration.....
LOL. Anyway, this is a great idea.
Coz I found some glaring mistakes that I have made too.
Whahahahaha

Gonna study to achieve the results that I want!
I believe I'm gonna do well.
Which means.
2 Exams next week... 1 Exam on the following.
Till now, I haven't done any mid term yet (This is hilarious).

OK DONE

Chillll

What a chill day.
Get to cook today (Haven't cook since forever due to the lack of a common "commodity" called time)
1 down, 2 to go!
LOL. A very very very familiar sight!

Ha ha.
Have to study at night .... LAH!
Got an email from my Game Theory tutor that he would take into consideration:
1) Lack of time
2) Fire Alarm sound disrupting us
3) Confusing Questions
When marking our paper. He wasn't on campus when we did our papers and the questions were filled with mistakes. But he is not interested in the questions. But the way we think and how we approach the questions.

I want to do well for this subject man!
LOL. I'll let someone top it. I shall get what I want (:.

By the way. It's already week 6/14.
8 more weeks to go.
And that means I'm one step closer to home.
Somehow a part of me will miss this place heaps - which I can't deny no matter how u think I should react.
Maybe it's just a "phase" in life as they called. But not everyone gets this chance to do their alma mater elsewhere apart from their own country.

Anyway, I have 2 pictures (Only 2 good ones) of Micheal and Racheal's wedding. (: His Micheal is spelt "ea" instead of "ae", a fact I only realised when I saw the brochures, amazing friends they are. Happy for them




Me looking formal (You won't spot me in such hair 360/365 days).
LOL. Apart from the rare wedding occasions + playful days.

"Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.

Give her of the fruit of her hands,
And let her own works praise her in the gates."

Ha ha. Not that I'm desperate.
But this verse speaks as much for man as much as it speaks for woman (In this case).

Uni Tutors are very Flexi people!!

Ha ha. One thing I like about Uni life.... is that....
It is flexible.

Lol. This is going to be a hell of a week for me.
With two assignments due together (Do you know how much the stakes are?).
Yeah. 5% and 6% are not marks you want to give away easily mate!

Trust me...
After Tuesday at 8p.m. next week.
I'd be a little more relaxed!
Wednesday on the following week calls for a party time.
But right now, Uni is at hand.

In between the exams and assignments, I've had one presentation sandwiched in between.
I plead to my tutor for an extension of two weeks. And he actually consented to my suggestion.
Ha ha. It certainly made me a happier man with one less agenda on the back of my head.

God is good.... All the time.
Anyway. I hope Lakers get to resign Ariza. Odom can go. Somehow I don't miss Odom that much. I'd prefer them getting Howard to replace Bynum. Lol. Nah. I'm faithful to my team!
I believed Bynum will come up big at a certain point in time next season. He was below average this playoff due to him not being 100%.

As for Manchester United..... Get Ribery, Valencia or any world class player to leave the void ( minus the ego) filled by C.Ronaldo. Messi looks good. But too good to be true.
Obedience is better than Sacrifice.
Chew on that!

Bad Blogger

Realised that it has been quite a while since I entered into my little space where I write out my thoughts. (:.
16.6.2009.
Woooo.
Week 5 of Uni.
Tuesday.
2 Assignments this Thursday.
Nx Week
1 Presentation on Monday
1 Exam on Tuesday.

It's driving me .... Ha ha. Not crazy yet.
But hey! It's something I have to really work hard..... For. At leaast. My goal is to finish one assignment today and embark a little on my another one.

I have another wedding to attend this Saturday.
It's Michael Abbot's wedding!!!
He's the first guy to bring me around Surfers Paradise when I reached Oz.
And he was single and available when I first met him.
A person with great character.... and also personality.
Ha ha. Can't believe that he is actually getting married this Saturday.. Gonna be big (:....

I got my hair cut today though (:.
I'm at Uni right now... Don't dare to go home (Home is a place that allows me to breed slothfulness) - If it ever was an animal.

Anyway, Lakers won the Championship.....
Kobe Bryant epitomises a man on a mission... With great hunger and everything!
Ha ha.
Anyway..... (:
Looking forward to the end of Semester suddenly.....
9 more weeks.....

Economics Stuffffff

Australia dollar has been on the bull run since December.
It has surged to as high as 1A$ to 1.18SGD.
It closes at around 1.155 today!

I'm currently doing an International Finance module. Today's tutorial class proved to be one of the most confusing topic on FX (It sounds REALLY easy, not beware, it's not). The subject is not helped by our even more confused Lecturer.
Lol. He's cool, just that the pressures from teaching students like us in a cold morning unsettled him a little.

Terminator Salvation was a good movie. Catch it if you can!
However, I rate State of Play higher.....
That's more because of its script than its action (Terminator would own State of Play in terms of action scenes).

A great day today!
Game Theory Tutorial tomorrow!
Geared and ready to study now (:

Bryan.

Quarter Cent (Garrett) & Trivials

It's Garrett's quarter of a century on Earth today.
He must be having a hell lot of fun today (He has always loved what he is doing).
He's the man.... (: Wish him happy birthday if you haven't.
He deserves this honor.

Anyway, I caught State of Play in the new cinema at Robina today!
The G-Max theatre was sick!
LOL. Extra-Comfy chairs with 25m wide-screen.
The chairs were made of leather and the seats were extremely wide.
It was a nice theatre. the best movie theatre I have seen till date!
Maybe I haven't visited much yet, but this one certainly ranks up there with the "Jones" theatre.

State of Play is a great movie.
So many twist to the story.
That is what make this movie great!
Some much tutes and readings this semester!

But it's all good.
Knowledge is power and I'm having a hell lot of a time gathering stuff!!!!!
I am starting to miss this place already.
