let's just say my adventure this week began on Tues. Which is the night after I finish my first paper, BEFORE my exams finish. heh heh.
baby was sweet to offer a ride back home after my 1st paper. he forgot when my paper start and I received quite a few missed calls from him aft I off it. Actually it was faster for me to hop on 199 home, cos I was already at the bus stop. but yeah... I was feeling bad abt him eating dinner by himself. I don't like it myself, haha!
so when we finally met in the car and we were cruising down Jalan Bahar (less than 10 mins to home) and he asked me:
'So where are we going?'
I stared at him incredulously becos we have counted down tog to my end of papers like a zillion times. he knows that I have one more paper which I had not studied for. And guess what, we ended up going to JP for a stroll, while I actually still had my dinner at home. haha!
but its ok, 'cos I SU-ed my last paper, and I still rem the stuff I studied for midterm. so yeah... we ended up walking round JP till like 10 and I actually reached home later than minshan, who was the one finishing her exam that day.
Final Exam. Last Day.
So yeah, despite reaching home later than expected, I manage to run thru everything a few times. Paper was fine, a bit rushed, but shld be able to make it 'satisfactory'! :D
and u know wad, things just got better... I was going to spend a quiet evening in the library browsing thru books. get a nice dinner to pack n eat home. but Jer called to say his class was cancelled. like how coincidental?
so we began a crazy nite of last-minute mahjong. and by crazy... it is crazily late. and crazily long. *chuckles we start like ard 9? and we finish at 1+ that's like 2x the usual time needed for a complete round of MJ. woots~!
no more a student. first free day
yep! had to miss a brunch with Minshan & co 'cos already promised mum to have brunch tog. not nice to miss it since I alrdy had it rescheduled time and again. nice little walk around JP and yep... another chg of plan made me unable to go library again.
but well, was looking forward to this Adam Khoo's talk in the evening, where we were going with Jer's sis & her bf. To sum it up, its like a personal finance management cum motivational talk cum sales pitch cum whatever-you-call-it.
I pretty much went becos I was free anyway, and yeah... it doesn't hurt to learn more. especially since I'm so illiterate in financial stuff. I think the talk was quite inspiring, Adam use various stories and examples of his students to show how they used what they learn to earn themselves the financial freedom they want. Some people really went from zero to hero. Being a bankrupt and working ur way up is no mean feat!
So I really do take my hat off to these people! But I think I am those kind who seek security and stability in my life. At some point of time I will dabble in stocks to like have some extra cash to spend and stuff. To use that as a means of increasing my source of income?
I don't really think so... maybe my mentality will chg. but for nw, let me enjoy my freedom & hope I can get a job soon!
