My Final Decision That You've Been Waiting For

From the information that we've gathered, there isn't any other way out for me!

Option 1:
To get Advanced Diploma cert first. I have to study solely for the internal papers and ignore completely the external papers (ACCA) for this semester. Additional to that, I have to prolong my studies for half a year for resit the papers, then only I am able to get my Advanced Diploma cert provided that I pass all my papers by then. After completing Advanced Diploma, only then I am able to concentrate fully by getting tuitions outside for the ACCA papers, which obviously will take a longer time.

Option 2:
To get ACCA cert straight away. I got to stop attending classes in college, take tuitions outside and sit for the subjects failed first. This way, if everything goes well, I should be graduating with the ACCA cert in December '08.

Conclusion: Option 2!


There is a risk in everything, I know. I've already registered and paid for tuition classes for the failed subjects. Left me no choice but to quit college. To make it sound better, I am just taking another route to get the bloody ACCA cert!

Parents supported at first. But mom yelled at me today for the decision that I've made. It makes no sense at all! When I was still thinking about this matter, I tried to explain to both my parents for like hundreds of times. I even go to the extent that I asked my friends to explain it to my dad, in case their explanation are clearer. Dad accepted the idea and gave me a green light to make my own decision. Mom on the other hand, couldn't understand the whole situation. When I tried to explain more, she refuse to listen and claimed that she won't be able to understand and said that I should choose myself. She had been saying this, till the day I register and paid for the tuitions. She starts to object the whole idea of stopping college and continuing ACCA out there. However, it's already too late! Why must she do this to me when things can't be changed anymore?! Why didn't she say anything when she got the chance?! She is making me feel guilty for the decision I've made. I am hating the whole thing now!


Thank you very much for those who have supported me, although not many. Also not forgetting those who have provided me with their opinions and suggestions, thank you!!

Urgent! To Quit Or Not To Quit College??!!

My reply to the comments on my previous post was a bit too long that I decided to make it as a new post instead. Dear readers, I need to confirm my decision by 8 a.m, tomorrow morning because I'd be registering and PAY the tuition fees for the subjects that I've selected. After that, there is no turning back for me anymore!! =X



Everyone,

I am now in my last year of Advanced Diploma, that is the reason to the whole dilemma. Coz I am suppose to graduate in 3 months time. However, with the papers which I foresee I will fail, I will not be able to graduate at that time.

So if I were to resit the "failed" papers internally this coming April, I would be sitting together with this semester's papers accumulating 5 to 6 papers at once. This I foresee will fail as well due to the time constraint as I kind of know that I need more time to study some of the subjects. So in order to not fail more, I can only opt to seat for the "failed" papers after this semester's papers, which means I still grad at the supposed time.

Another thing is the period to resit after this semester is so weird that I can't take outside tuition to guide me. Corporate Reporting is a paper that needs guidance to pass.

So if I take external straight away, I would have extra 3 months to study those papers coz the exams is in June, and hopefully pass it.

It's difficult to study the subjects when you are taking different papers internally and externally. It's like internally I need to study A, B and C subject and at the same time I need to study D and E for external. The amount of subjects only means less time for each subjects, and higher chance to fail. If I fail ALL then I would need to resit ALL of of it once again. Sigh..

But if I take ACCA (external) straight, I would just need to concentrate on A, B, C and make sure I pass it. Then only study D and E.

If You're In My Shoes, Would You Quit College?

First week of the new semester, there were already tears in my eyes. Stress? That must be it! I couldn't find any better answer to that. As I listen to the first ever lecture of the brand new subject in this semester, I found that I am the only one who couldn't understand what was being taught at all! I thought to myself, "She must be speaking some foreign language unknown to me!" But others don't seem to have any problem with the subject. So I conclude, I am stupid! Anyhow, I managed to hold my tears back and save myself from the embarrassment.

Things didn't go my way. We initially planned to ignore the core papers which we just sat for last semester first *Yes, we already know we failed from the way we attempt the paper*, and take the optional papers that we are studying this semester externally. We would then take outside tuition in other institution to make sure we could pass the papers in one seating. However, our hope crashed just like that when we found out that we could only sit for the optional after we have passed the core papers. How could anyone concentrate so many papers when there are already 2 extra subjects and assignments, which accumulate to 4 subjects this semester, not to mention if we were to reseat the "confirmed" fail papers!

After days of calling everyone that could supply us with suggestions and alternatives and seeking help from the programme supervisor, we came to a very brave decision. There were limited alternatives. I could stay and continue in the college and try to pass my internal as well as external. Both internally and externally are different subjects, which mean less time to concentrate for each subject, more time consuming doing the assignments and less possibility to pass! Or, I could quit or hopefully defer my studies for a year and use the one year to take as many external papers as possible with the outside tuition as guidance.

Hmm.. Note that I am already in my second year, last semester in Advanced Diploma. If I take the first option, I might need 2 years or more to get my Advanced Diploma cert. The second option on the other hand needs 1 year or more to get my ACCA cert.

So my final call is to quit or defer my Advanced Diploma, and concentrate fully on my external papers. I am making one of the biggest decisions in my life. With what I've chose, I might end up giving up the chance to get an Advanced Diploma cert and if I fail my external papers, I will end up getting nothing but more reseats, and a very late cert. Sigh... The waste of time and money both ways...

Viagra In The Clinic! [Part2]

This relates to my sick laptop. Most of my photos gone missing. So this Viagra post won't be as interesting as you hope it would be.

Why would a girl like me look for a clinic that specializes in selling Viagra, eh?


Not Viagra lar... It's my antibiotics!


Well, Viagra was never not the reason I was there. It was just a PoliKlinik and Surgery where people go for whenever they have any kind of sickness. There I was waiting for my turn to be registered, as my eyes and KidCheng's wander around every corner in the waiting area. Shamelessly we took some shots that I've posted in Viagra In The Clinic! [Part1]! *other patients were staring and we pretended not to see*


Recommended lipbalm


My lips cracked and bleed everyday. It got worse as days passed by that the skin around the lips area became red-ish and it starts to peel. It had been like this for almost half a year. So I went to the clinic found out that I had infection instead or allergy!! For that I was given a big stacks of antibiotics *puke! gotta telan so many!* and a non-medicated lipbalm for the crack lips. Within a week, areas around the lips healed! It's almost like a miracle! -_-"


Soft brush for sensitive gums :)

I even got myself a new soft tootbrush because my gums are still bleeding! Sigh... Talk about sickness... RavinBoy is right, I will soon make a list of sickness that I had and those that I am still having =S

Laptop Is An Important Asset

I'm back from my Penang trip!!! =D *jumping up and down, left and right* Miss me?? Miss me?? No?

Hundreds of mails! Hundreds of Facebook application requests! A long list of unreplied messages in my CBox. "Why no update geh?" "You busy ah?" "Still exam?" "When u wanna update??"

Well, these were all due the malfunctioning of my laptop about a week or more ago. My laptop fell sick and just not interested to see anyone, so it wouldn't switch on no matter how we press it. After the visit to the clinic, it got attacked by virus till we can't log into our desktop!! That's the reasons for all the upcoming oh-so-outdated posts. Hehe.

Anyhow, the laptop recovered, so I hope I can write at least one post a day. Well, it is merely a hope, no guarantees :P

Gamble At Home Comfort

Gambling in casinos has become a norm nowadays. My friends who visit the casinos find the thrill in trying their lucks in the bets. However, some find it troublesome to travel all the way there. It is such a human nature to be lazy! But fret not, because there are always online casino to replace the traditional way of gambling! =)

I came across Pro360, a website that provide online casino reviews. This would definitely save time as the have a list of hundreds of best online casinos! Pro360 filters and offer detailed review on game experience, trust score and bonuses offered by each casinos. Players can choose from variety of games offered such as online poker, roulette, blackjack and slots.

What's best about Pro360 is that they award more casino signup bonuses than the usual online casinos offer directly. Pro360 enable players to easily access to not only the list of the best online casino, but also casinos with the highest jackpot and casinos with the best bonuses!

Purple Cane Tea Restaurant In The Gardens

Another belated post with a belated wish >_< Mom's birthday was on 25th November, and we celebrated it at the Purple Cane Tea Restaurant in The Gardens.

Who would have guessed that each and every dish offered in this restaurant is cooked with tea leaves! Talk about healthy lifestyle! Tea may help in reducing gastric, esophageal and skin cancers! *Miracle* This is just the right place to dine in =)

They offer variety of teas to choose from. *Duh!* They even have an area where they sell tea leaves in packets so that customers could easily buy the teas that they enjoyed during their meals. Not only that! Those beautiful teapots are for sale too! There were two different sizes of teapots available.


Bu er Tea.... really smooth type..


Even the rice was cooked with tea leaves.. This is the reason I said EVERY dishes have something to do with either tea or tea leaves.


So much better than those regular white rice.. I feel so healthy >_<


I can't really choose a favourite among the dishes that we had because everything tasted good. Haha. We had HM Beancurd *HM stands for Homemade??*. The texture of the beancurd is very important. HM Beancurd was very smooth and hence it was good!


HM Beancurd with 'dao si' toppings ... mmm..mmm...


Vegetable 4 in 1 with pickle consist of petais, ladies fingers, brinjals and long beans. SlowCatchUpKuan who doesn't like greens commented that this is one of her favourites. I was like "Wow, you're eating veggie! Green ones!!!"


Shredded pickle is very crunchy...Crunch. Crunch.


Another smooth one- herbal steamed egg. Besides these, we also ordered the Bean Paste Fish but unfortunately no pictures was taken because like what SlowCatchUpKuan said, she was busy gobbling up the food that she forgotten to make use of her camera -_-"


Look at the tea leaves.. ahh... I love tea!!


Last but not least, the very special soups! The soups were served in small teapots and each teapots could only fill about 6-7 tea mini cups full of soups. So we ordered 4 different types of soups- Burdock Tea Soup, Ginseng Tea Soup, Tea & Wine Soup and Lotus Root Tea Soup. Hmm.. I must say that my mom makes better lotus root soup, without tea leaves though =(


Mini teapots of soups


The customer service was good. Overall, it is worth to dine here especially if health is the main thing you consider when you look for food.

Happy Belated Birthday once again, Mom!!
