Its about time i update my blog. It has been dont know how many days since I last posted here, you do the math. Again, much has happened in the past 2 weeks, my Exam Driven Course (EDC) and World of Warcraft being the main events. Some other stuff had happened but its best not to mention here.

My Paper 3.1 Audit and Assurance Services EDC classes had just ended today at 4.30pm. The next stretch starts on the 25th. My hand is still sore from the non-stop writing, experienced it before too last semester, will never get used to it. Or maybe its just the way I hold my pen, because i hold it differently from most people. I hold it as if I am holding a chinese caligraphy brush (or whatever you call it). Anyways, my lecturer, Mr.Goh dictates and we copy down whatever he says. He doesnt have a constant pace, sometimes he is quick, sometimes he is kinda slow. When he dictates fast, it is really fast. Cant keep up with it sometimes. Mr. Goh does have minor pronounciation problems. For example, "conflicts" sounds like "cornflakes", "chances" sounds like "changes", "reveal" sounds like "review" and other stuff. Well, maybe not a minor problem. But I really do respect him. He has a family to take care of, his accounting firm and his students. No idea how he manages to do all that, not to mention speaking non-stop during classes.

I am now a Lvl 37 Troll Hunter in World of Warcraft now, yay. The last game, as far as i remember that got me so addicted to it was Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Seriously, that game easily took 100hrs off my life, but WoW, I think I have already spent more than that.

The gameplay of WoW is simply amazing. The quests are actually rewarding and worth doing them. For example, your reward will be a l33t piece of equipment and a substantial amount of exp. Unlike games like 9Dragons, you get rewarded with cheap stuff and puny exp. I would rather grind than doing those kind of quests. The PvP system rocks too, like most other online games, WoW has PvP servers too. I am in one. You can walk around and PK (Player Kill) just about any opponents you see from the opposing force. For instance, if you're from the Horde, you attack the Alliance. The element of surprise in PvP servers actually keeps you alert all the times, to watch for possible attackers and react to them as quickly as possible. People from the Horde cant communicate with the Alliance anyways, whatever you type will show up as gibberish for the other player from the other side.

All the talk about concentrating on studies, it never really happened. Well, this time, starting tomorrow I shall start revising seriously, hope it really does come true this time. I am already starting to get the fear of failing the exams (I really did fail before, so yea, the feeling is worse). I am sure that fear will push me to revise. For your information, my exams will be commencing on the 5th and ending on the 6th, which means i have about approximately 2 more weeks to prepare for it.

The other day, Kean Leong introduced us to some road side Beef Noodles stall. As most people know, i dont eat beef because my mom is allergic to it, so my family dont consume beef. To me, beef tastes weird to begin with. Mutton is alot worse, the instant it lands on my tongue, I would feel like puking, seriously. Anyways, the shop the KL brought us to, the beef noodles is really good. The beef doesnt taste like beef at all. Its good. Mmm.

One more other thing that I would hate to put it into my mouth is Wasabi. I can even smell it from a mile away. Well, maybe thats too exaggerating, but yea the point is still there, I hate wasabi. Come on, it tastes like plastic and smells like well, burnt plastic. Nothing beats Penang Curry Mee.

I just notice that my blog didnt even have a single picture of me in it. There are a number of reasons to that:

  • I do not have a camera.
  • I do not have a camera phone.
  • I do not have a webcam.
  • My room mate does have a camera phone but I feel stupid borrowing it just to snap a photo of myself to be included in my blog.
