Chronicles of the world from my perspective.

Life @ April 2009 Semester Finals

Monday, August 24, 2009




I can't even put a new picture now since my blog's control panel, just like most others, has raised its white flag, literally white since all I have are the links, not even the bluish brownish GUI.

and this merely adds to the collection that includes Baka-Tsuki (before I formatted my desktop), hotmail and facebook (not me yet touchwood!). the intrawebs is going mad!

okay my jokes are not even funny now. well how funny can you get when you are in the middle of the final exams? I decided to blog about it in my usual practice so I can keep track next time.

I havent posted for a while, not only because of this weird-shit lack of formatting internet pages that is becoming increasingly common, but also because I kinda lost steam at blogging long posts.

blogging was something that started for me in 2004. it has been 5 years and I am not the only one who appeared to be giving their blogs up for alternative mediums like twitter and facebook.

only difference is, I am not that active on twitter or facebook either! guess I just enjoy lazing around and procrastinating a lot.

but well I will definitely come up with a post to sum up the second term of April 2009, which is kind of a learning experience. and that is why I will make some effort to give it a closure in this diary of mine. I will get it up by the first week of the holidays before procrastination consumes me again and as a personal target.

==

with this prologue aside, lets move on to the "meat" of the day, the final exams.

my exam runs on the afternoons (and that is 2pm to 4pm by NP's regulations) of this Monday, Tuesday and Friday.

Human Resource Management is the first paper, surprisingly since content papers dont usually come early for me. usually its something with calculations like POA, BSTA or CMA.

I would say it went well. other than a mistake at my MCQ that I already know, I didnt really know any other major mistakes committed. this could of course be partly because nobody was discussing the paper. it seems most people didnt have much issues with it.

yes, its a pretty uneventful paper that I hope I will do well in, since I cant say that much about FMGT and CMA.

FMGT or Financial Management, is the paper scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. while I generally have an idea about it, I still have to do some proper practice, especially for Time Value of Money, which I will declare as my biggest enemy in the module.

it is really like maths, since the questions involve using a few basic formulas (just like maths) and yet manage to twist it in spectacular ways (just like maths) that the question is different everytime (just like maths).

I really hope for the best, since Time Value of Money has traditionally taken up one question or 1/5th of the total marks.

all this talk about FMGT is making me nervous already. off for some practice. you readers (yes all 3 of you thanks) will know how it went tomorrow.
