Asking me to go for the interview at 4.30pm. And it ended by 4.40pm. And half the time, it was the interviwer who was speaking. Arrrggghhhhh ...... gone case. That goes my last chance. Sigh .....

I received the call at 9.30am. I was still sleeping (arrrggghhh....) It's my last chance. Standard Chartered Bank. 22 applicants. One of the highest application rate for a position. Wish me luck. I want to work. I need an internship. I can't be slacking at home any longer. It will be mine!

Have you ever watch this show before? It's amazing how good it is, really ~ must be one of the best that I have ever watched. I finished season 1 in 2 days, and half of season 2 in one night. Haha ~ that's how crazy I am over this serial. Go watch it. Chance for you to reflect on your past as well.

Maybe it's time now. These few days, I have been thinking hard about my future and career. I am actually abit lost. Sigh..... I know I will be in the finance sector, but I just dunno which area will I concentrate in. Sigh.... my ideal first job will be of coz Citibank Management Associate, where I will get to be rotated around 4-6 departments in the span of 2 years. That's what I want, isn't it? Always craving to learn more and more. But I have to be realistic as well. Thousands over of applicants, and only 6 successful ones each year. Am I really that good? Or maybe I am just dreaming too far?
Maybe it's the stupid internship application which pull my morale and confidence down. I just dunno why the hell can't I get an internship. I am in dean's list for 3 years straight, 2 scholarship, 1 oversea community service project, presidents for 2 outstanding student clubs, and sitting on Student Association Council, and finally on my way to first-class honor. Tell me, how else can I improve myself? Sigh ........
Where will I be in a year's time? Tell me. Will you be beside me?

I really wish I have a dog now. Always wanted to have one since young, but my financial difficulty doesn't allowed me that. I promised myself that I will get one once I graduate. Yeah ~ I believe I will be a nice and responsible dog owner. Hehe~
I remember years ago, I was already thinking about the name of my dog. What should be it? Rexy or Money? Haha ~ won't be it funny if I keep on calling out to the dog, "Money, come, Money". Haha ~ but oh well, I decided that Rexy will be it.
Yeah ..... just 12 more months. I guess I will buy it on my birthday. As a present for myself. Finally ~

Real boring. No kidding. Skip the movie if you are no a X-men fan. But if you are one, I bet you will be terribly disappointed. Just like those stupid action special effect movie. The plot isn't that good. Part 1 and 2 were much much better.

Grade: B

I can claim that my finance knowledge isn't too bad, but there's always one area which I am too embarrassed to admit that I have no idea in it at all. That's ........ foreign exchange.
I aim to be a CFO by the age of 38, right? How can I not know how to manage foreign exchange risk? Borrowed a book from library last week, but it's really dry. I only reach a quarter of the book. Freak, I must at least understand the basic of FX. Motivate me ......

I think it's the best time now for me to pick up this skill? I always wanted to learn the database system, but have been too occupied during the term. Since I am like so freaking free nowaday, I shall make trips to campus to learn it.
Wanna join me?

Had a good chat with my team of exco last night. Haha, all of us were bitching about that asshole NUS loser who bitch about SMU on the cheap Newpaper. Pui ~ she is such a loser for trashing SMU so subjectively. Pui ~ just a matter of time before SMU students shoot back at her on the papers.
Tamade, 2 months ago, it's "elit vs normal" .... then "JC vs poly" ..... now "SMU vs NUS/NTU". Crap, next up ...... "girls vs boys" ~~~~~

My aunt just called me. Asked me about Accountacy in NUS, NTU, and SMU. What duhz .... I dunno what to say. NUS is definitely out. It's just between NTU or SMU. I won't deny NTU has a good reputation in Accountacy, and I doubt that everyone will appreciate the teaching method in SMU. I was at the Open House of SMU. I was advocating SMU so much so that I start to think that it may be overhyped some how. Oh well ~ I dunno. I wish the freshmen coming in this year will be different. Not those muggers.

Time for reflection. It hits me today that I am just a year away from graduation. What will I be doing this time next year?
It's weird, you know? Since NS days, I started to fall in love with finance. I read up alot alot on finance. I was so sure that I wanted to have a career in the finance industry. Yet ~ years go by and I started to get tired. No, I shouldn't use the word "tired". Arrrggghhh.... I dunno what's the right word to use.
When I was in year 1, I was so keen on stocks and trading. 2 years later, I realise that I am experiencing delusion. I realised that stock market isn't that smart after all. The rich get richer while the poor get poorer. It's stupid. I don't want to be a retail investor. I don't even want to analyse stocks.
Then in year 3, I realise that I am more keen on merger and acquisition. I want the real action. The place where the bosses make all the fucking decision. I want to be there. Oh well ~ then I have this wish. I aimed to be CFO by the age of 38. But come on, I don't even know what's in for me next year. I don't want to be playing with numbers only. I want management plus finance. I want to work in banks before moving to corporation.
What the ....... sigh ....... tell me. Where will you be next year? Beside me?

Friendship can't be bought or courted. Yeah..... my group of buddies sang me the birthday song last night at the KTV pub. Didn't expect a cake at all, but well, it was a pleasant surprise.
I will be the last, I promise.

Don't catch it. It's shitty. The plot is too familiar. The characters have no depth. Bad guys always have to die at the right moment. The hero will always save the day. The dad will always sacrifice for his daughter's love. The screw will always turn at the right time. And you will never die.
Yucks ~ Don't watch it!

On another note, I can't wait for X-men 3 to be released !

Disgusting. Went Ice Cold Beer for a drink last night before heading to Phuture. Tamade, the stupid waiter actually asked for my IC when I ordered a beer. Fuck up. He looked younger than me. For god's sake, I am 25 this year. He is idiot or what? Do I look 17? Tamade ~ stupid waiter. Phuture is still as crowded. The drink is still as good. Pretty fun, just that it's a little overcrowded. Hmmm........

I was pretty impressed when I check the spread of grade for Corporate Finance. 21% of the 3 classes of students have scored C+. Gosh ~ amazing! I salute Jeremy Goh.
Yeah, I do agreed that he isn't the best "teacher" around, but he is really smart. His brain works really fast and his papers/articles are amazing. I can't blame him for teaching like a slacker when he has classes of slackers.
Come on, I am not mean when I say that I am happy with such a spread. I mean ... this should be the way! I am absolutely disgusted when I see the number of As some of the professors gave away. Yucks ~ some of us (including me) don't deserve the As at all, so why are the prof giving them away so freely? Come on, it's for the sake of SMU reputation. If those idiots get the As and GPA, it will sooner or later be reflected in the workforce. My ex-employer (intern) actually told me that there is rumours that SMU gave away As easily. I felt so embarrassed at that moment, but I can't deny it too.
If you are good, you get the As. If you are lousy, you get the Cs. The median of bell curve shouldn't fall in B+. Go check out any good university, and you will know that B is considered quite good already. For SMU, B+ is average. What the hell ..... I see the standard dropping as years go by. Professors need to raise the bar. If we want to follow bell curve, let the median fall in B-. Let only the deserving students score As.
That's why I am impressed with Jeremy. There is no bell curve. 25% of his students are C+ and below. Short term, we student may suffer, but in the longer term, the standard will be raised.
I hope that the school admin will do something about it....... sigh ......

Felt weird when I realised that the waitress actually recognised me just now. Guess I must have been there too often this year. Oh well, it's a good thing too. She bothers to find us seat when the place is fully reserved. And she asked why I didn't call to reserve a table. Oh well, till I get the member card ba. Guess I will get it after all. The perks looked quite reasonable. My hangout place in the future? Who knows?

It's ironic that I had to interview alot total of 20 potential scholars this afternoon. It's already the 3rd and final round of interview for them. Not all of them are bright though. Guess what? In the round-table interview when one has to expression opinion to all, this girl exclaimed: "Not all bright people go to university. Bill Gate was not accepted into university too."
At this moment, all of us were stunned. Is this girl stupid or what? Anyway, one of the professor straight away corrected her infront of us, "Bill Gate was accepted into Harvard". She looked down, then say ....."Maybe I should just shut up".

See? Some are bimbo. Some are pretty smart and bright. In fact, I realise that the female candidates are stronger than the male counterpart. They appeared to be much more confident and less bookworm-look. Oh well ~ lets see how will be accepted into this program in the end ba.

Quite an experience to be on the opposite side of the interviews. Been to many interviews, but seldom do I get to be the interviewer. And I tell you something. FIRST IMPRESSION is everything. If you screw it up on your first line, the interviewer will just switch off. Or rather, if you don't look decent enough, you better at least sound confident. If not - "next please"......

It's a good show, though I find the part 1 to be nicer. Maybe it's the cast. Part 1 have stronger actors. This part 2 is pretty brutual. Tamade .... abit disgusting too.

Wah ... alot of nice movies coming up. Can't wait for X-men 3 and my tutu captain Jack. Haha ~
