情非得已

只怕我自己会爱上你
不敢让自己靠的太近
怕我没什么能够给你
爱你也需要很大的勇气
只怕我自己会爱上你
也许有天会情不自禁
想念只让自己苦了自己
爱上你是我情非得已

Had a discussion yesterday...about guys biding their time to see who are the gals interested in them, before moving in for the interested parties. I feel as much as gals dun wan to be with guys who bid their time and who likes the gal because she likes him, the lyrics do show that, it would be quite disastrous for guys to plunge headlong in terms of commitment, without knowing how the gal feels. It would be disastrous. Thinking about somebody who don't realy care a damn about you all the time, and unable to control your thoughts doesn't sound nice right. That's the consequences of trying to commit without knowing. So to guys out there, if you can control your feelings, do control. Otherwise once you reach the situation as describe in the lyrics, and the gal is not receptive. That's it...That's it...Gd luck to u...

Why am i doing econs?

It's definitely not because of the fact that i can score A for it (i.e. an A subject). It's because i like the discipline very much and hence i am pursuing it. It took just the mere presence of Mrs Ng, my Econs tutor in TPJC to make me realise that, after the glum and disappointing microeconomics 2 paper.

Ring! Ring! It was Darrly.

D: Where are you?

A: In biz studying (irritatated mode)

D: Mrs Ng in UCC, wanna meet her?

Obviously, from then onwards, i realise i m doing econs for the love of it, not because i can get A for it. It was an indescrible feeling. The passion is back and i shall not give up easily because of a setback, or i should put it this way, not giving up, even if i encounter lots of setbacks, because this is what i wan to do!

Mrs Ng is a very inspiring character in my Junior College days. Inspired by her to see the fascinating aspects of the discipline. As a teacher, she was great too! I once pose her a question...

"Mrs Ng! Our class always bochap abt you, never do your work. Why do you still do so much for us?"

Her answer was so simple...

"Because i am your teacher..."

Shot dead...

Talking about shooting me n the foot, which was precisely what I did in today’s paper

X= Consumption
W= Wealth

I am suppose to use the notation W. Instead, I used X. That’s it. Hope an A is still achievable. It’s a notation mistake with no values, but what a hell of a difference it is going to make…
Glum n sad, very sad, I might have thrown the A away

就 算 失 望 , 不 能 绝 望 ,my ambition is to be an economist

Thanks to Daniel, i've finally manage to realise how difficult it is going to be an economist in Singapore, the country that will never gives the local universities graduates a chance they so much crave. As much as i hate to say, no matter what, i am sticking with economics, and i will have to prove myself in NUS... Only then do i stand a chance to face the global challenge.

Stress until vomit, My End is really near

My end is near...
Fatigue setting in...
Splitting headache...
Time running out...
I might not live to fight another day...
Period...

Great Expectations

Been very stress yesterday trying to find out the combinations of grade to maintain my CAP. I think my actions are stupid now. Talk to a fren and telling her the sky's the limit because she has nothing to lose. Actually it can be applied to me in the same context again. Why should i bother about the combinations? It makes no sense at all. The target i should set for myself should be that i must Ace all my modules. That should be the way, not some weird combis of As and B+ & Bs...only if i can't ace all the modules then should i worry what my next step should be.

That indeed should be the way to go...

Miracles wanted...

With only a day left to save my marketing module. I rest my case....
The 6 Chapters were a killer, and hope things will turn out better tomorrow. Otherwise i am screwed, and all my earlier efforts would be wasted.
Management & Organisation is another module with 10 chapters that i hasn't done anything about it yet.
Can Alan lives on to fight another day? I don't know, but i won't give up...

A Simple Plan

Did some simple calculations today after the rude awakening by William 2 days ago.
From this semester onwards, the min. acceptable grade each semester will be have to be at a minimum of 4.2 to reach a CAP of 4.23 at the end of 3 years. With that in hand, in order to reach a 2nd upper in the 4th year, i simply need a CAP of 3.4 each semester in my final year to at least secure a 2nd upper.

Looks Simple, sounds simple...Now is the execution...

Alan's Classic Blooper

Bought an Ethernet card at SLS (Sim Lim Square for the non-techies) a few days back, because friend insisted his computer didn't have an RJ45 port (that's the stupid hole you plug the LAN cable into) to connect his new ADSL modem to.
Guess what I saw when I went over to his place to install the card today... a nice empty RJ45 port staring at me right beside the USB ports. He'd mistaken it for another USB port, of all things.Classic man, simply classic.
It was a good thing I hadn't gone down specially to buy the bloody card, and lucky for him the card only cost $10. Oh well, saved me the trouble of plugging the card in.

Ok...Folks that friend that Kein is referring to is...........ME!
I am a PC idiot, and looks like this is the best evidence to suggest that!

So, if i ask you all people to help me with my PC, please do not ignore me ok! Otherwise such classic bloopers won't be the last you gonna see from me.

Backing your teammate at all cost

Something that i recalled recently about last week's marketing project...
Wan Er was sort of blaming herself for not heeding my point on Brand Equity on Sasa Cosmetics. Well, i was telling her it was a ream decision and i see no need to blame herself for not seeing my point. Perhaps, a younger me would have told her" Look! Why didn't you listen to me! Now you look at the comments written." But of course, no, i didn't do that. It was after all a team decision, from my point of view.

I am glad that i am in the medical response force, where i learn that it's so important to back your teammate all the way, once a decision is taken. This is indeed a valuable lesson learnt again from SSG Munir, where he gave his backing to us, the specialists, once a decision is taken, irregardless of how the thing went. It's very important to preserve this integrity in a group or team.
