I shouldn't come back yet

I came back to UUM yesterday.
But guess what,
4 classes have passed today,
and 3 out of four classes were either canceled or the lecturer didn't show up.
I should stay at home and came back on Tuesday.
So I will have 3 days extra.
3 days for me is really a lot.
I have a lot of things need to be done.

Interview with MPPP

It was few days I didn't update my blog.
I was busy like hell!

Yesterday, I went to interview to MPPP for my assignment.
When I changed my formal clothes,
I found out that I didn't have belt in my house.
I took my father's to wear.
Thereafter, I found out i didn't bring back my shoe as well.
Oh my god, I didn't bring back so many things.
Luckily, my mum found my brother's NS shoe,
so I wear it.

I reached there later than Schieh See and Ee Peng.
Don't know why,
I didn't feel any nervous,
I was totally calm.
I suppose to feel very nervous.
Anyway, it was a good thing that I didn't feel nervous.

Out of my expectation,
the officer is nice,
and friendly too I would say.
She gave us several things which help our assignment.
We have about 35 minutes of interview.
I would say the interview went successfully.

I reached home at 5.
An afternoon passed.
Time passed really fast.

Time is really fast

Time is really fast, isn't it?

I was back to Penang last Thursday.
I was back to UUM again yesterday.
Time is really fast.
Every time I go back to Penang,
I failed to complete all the things I planned.

I reached Penang afternoon of Thursday.
I rest for a while,
then, the followings moment of the day,
I was doing investment research.

The second day, Friday.
The morning, I did some research and I sold my shares.
Afternoon, my schedule was really fully.

3pm: meeting with Khai Yuan regarding My Map Enterprise
4pm: meeting Eng Jeng regarding Reason Enterprise
5.30pm: meeting with Koon Kit
8.30pm: meeting with Leng Chin regarding investment

The third day, Saturday.
I started to print my notes for acedemic.
after that,
at noon, I got to back UUM.

I depart from my home at 1pm.
Guess what time I reached UUM.
It's almost 8pm!
Such a long journey!
It wasted lot of my time!

对学业无期望了。。。

说真的,
我真的累了。
我真的对学业失去期望了。

今天,
我不想去上课,
我什么都不想,
就没去了。
我完全不担心会被考试除名。

昨天,
我深深地感受到我原来是那么的脆弱。

想了一想,
在这里,
我的效率真的是很差。
我有一个功课,
搞了搞,
搞了几个星期都搞不完。
真的,我对那功课一点方向感都没有。

昨天,
我也读了一些文章。
是被称为香港新美女股神写的。
她的年龄如果没错的话,
只大我一岁。
但,股票知识却远远地在我之上。
我的愿望是想成为一位成功的投资家。
但,以我这个远不如人的头脑,
有资格跟人家当成功的投资家吗?

几个月前,
我说过我要在投资,生意和学业上,
通通都取得好成绩。
但,
现在我真的觉得这真的不是很可能。
我真的太没效率了。
这样的我,
真的无法同一时间下,
照顾那么多东西。

幸好昨天有为朋友跟我SMS,
让我把失落的心情放下。
不然我看我应该睡不着了。
