Was out with Justin and Andrea for dinner just now. Had my delicious pork noodle in "Chao Yuan" and ate dessert again. hehe.. Getting fatter and fatter. While on our way back to hall, both Andrea and I freak out when we realised that next Sunday will be our last day in HK!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh... So fast!!! Though i was counting down on my blog and MSN, i didn't realise it was next SUNDAY!!! I'm still in my own lala land.. *faint* my holiday ending soon! And i have so many things yet to do.. I don't want to go back... :~(

Things not yet done:
1) More shopping.. hehe.. =p
2) Taste Katie's home cook food
3) Have a meal @ Wing's place
4) Go to the beach
5) Explore other parts of HK
6) Club for the last time in Lan Kwai Fong

9:01 PM



As all of you have guessed, i had been bz mugging for my this afternoon paper thus i wasn't online yesterday.

Well... How was my first paper? It was a big time flop! Feel like a total failure. Never feel that way in SMU before after an exam. Not even in my worst subjects like FA and MA. This investment paper was a killer paper, it demoralise me utterly. I did put in the effort to study for that module, but i still struggle during the exam on the math and theory part. Faintz~.. so miserable... I'm doubting on my capability now. Should i continue to pursue my 2nd major in Finance, or should i just drop it, and graduate next semester in December? Sianz.. A few days ago, I was talking to Crystaline about taking Master of Science in Finance .. Gish~ i should forget about it and pursue my career in IT ...

Time for "self-consoling" theraphy
1) Everyone taking the same paper will do badly as well, you are not the only one.
2) Come on, you are on an exchange. Whats the big deal of failing? It won't affect your GPA. The most you just have to retake it in SMU again.
3) Life is full of failures and that is where u learn to stand up and be stronger in the future.
4) Take a break, have a Kit-Kat (chocolate).

DengZ~... whatever... It is all over... 2 more papers to go.

Item #4 & 5 tt i'm sooooo.. going to miss....

The roasted goose in Shen Jing. Why?
Cos it tastes delicious...

The noodle comes along with sandwich, scramble eggs and milk tea.
All for just $4 SGD. Cheap right?

Gish.. I haven't update the blog for so long. Was simply too busy to blog and go shopping this 2 weeks. =( After entertaining my dearest friend, Fang Yu, from 11th to 15th May, i'm then busy with my 3 term papers, Economic History of China, Asian Financial Institution and Architecture!! I had tonnes of reading to do and thousands of words to write. Thank God that my exam don't fall on the same date as my term paper dateline, else i'll have to ask my boss in heaven to create a miracle, expand my time, and bless me super ingenious brain power to memorize all the facts and figures. hehe..

Ps: To my dearest CG members.. Below is my exam time table. Must pray for me to at least pass all my papers k? I don't want to repeat modules in SMU.. =)

           31st May - Investment and Portfolio Analysis
           2nd Jun - Asian Financial Institution
           9th Jun - Economic History of China

Notice something my dear CG member?? The reason why i can't come back to Singapore earlier to attend the Emerge Conference because my exam fall on the same date!! Diao~... Oh well.. I will still watch the conference online, you guys have fun!

Best 3 pictures that i took with Fangyu during her visit.

First of all, i wanna thank both Wing (Roomy) and Katie (Buddy) for blogging about me these few days (dun believe? check their blog...). lol! Feel so honour and loved by the Hongkonger. Gish.. Their actions will make me feel even more "emo" when it is time for me to part with them. Will definitely miss them badly when i go back, just like how i miss my family and singaporean friends when i first came to HK.. well.. 世界上没有不散之宴席... (Eh.. Buddy and Roomy, my chinese not bad rite? lol!) Will continue to enjoy my last few weeks of stay in HK. =p

Brought her to many places including Causeway Bay, Mongkok, Avenue of Stars, Central, Victoria Peak, Lan Kwai Fang and my school, HKU too. lol! She bought alot of things (from top to bottom) and the best thing is, all the items are less than $20SGD. Lol! Shop till we drop. So tired~... Ever since she came on Friday, i don't experience insomnia anymore. Thank God for that. Hehe.. Anyway, another 2 more days of "holiday" before i start mugging. =p

I LOVE 16th floor!!

9:20 PM



Firstly, I wanna say.. "Happy Birthday to my BEST friend, Lin Fangyu!" It is her xxxth birthday. We have known each other for more than 10 years since secondary school time and gone through thick and thin together. Well.. hope she has a great time today. And stay pretty always!! =) And and.. She is coming to Hongkong tomorrow, 11th of May!! Woo hoo! So excited! lol! I can be "pampered" by her again. (ya.. Crystaline, i know what you are thinking.. I'm acting like a kid again.. wahaha! =p)

A few hours ago, i had a "Superpass" floor dinner in my floor. We had pizza in the pantry first, then proceed to "Superpass" ceremony, and lastly the "Red paper" writing (I dunno what is that called in chinese. My bad..) "Superpass" ceremony is a HKU tradition. Every semester, the HKUers will chop a roasted pig before the exam starts. It symbolizes passing the examination with flying colours.

Dear piggy piggy..

The ceremony starts...

1) First we have to untie the strings that are tied to the pig. At the same time, our floor will rep distribute the red packet to us. Check out the video for the meaning of the red packet.



2) The floor rep has to cut the pig into half. It is auspicious to do so, else our floor will not pass the exam with flying colours.



3) Then my turn to chop the pig... My "virgin" pig-chopping is given to Starr Hall 16/F.. lol! Pss.. Have to split the meat into half, else i won't be able to pass with flying colours!



4) After everyone gets their share of chopping the pig, we then have to cut it into smaller pieces and prepare the sauce.

5) Yup! And we start eating the roasted pig. Ho Mei ahh!! (Very delicious!)

We have the chinese writing after that.

I must admit, i can't write alot of chinese characters. I'm very bad @ it. And my handwriting sucks! But.. That doesn't stop me from writing chinese letters for AJJ, my roomy and my buddy. Hehe.. See what i wrote for them. hehe...

The finale song was self-composed by the Stargazer. Though i don't understand a single word that they were singing, but i could tell from the crowd that it was a funny and crowd-engaging song which was based on several events that happened in Starr Hall.
All in all... Only 1 word to describe this High Table Dinner, "棒"!
