Trial & Error

Next week, is the MOCK EXAMS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All lecturers expect students to get high marks.

But I don't think so.

Chill, there was no real time to study.

Besides, MOCK exam = TRIAL exam.

TRIAL & ERROR.

So it's ok to screw up the MOCK EXAM.

BUT for God's sake not the REAL exam.

When dealing with the REAL stuff, you gotta put 100% effort into it.

So,

READY , STEADY , GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

or in BM

Anda sedia, Anda sedia, JANGAN CAKAP BAHAYA !!!!!!!!!!!11

Aftermath & Realisation

Seems that the accident I witnessed in the late Sunday evening was VERY serious.

12 people died, 40 injured.

If I had left Malacca 1 hour earlier, I would have seen & maybe even inv........
never mind about that. (Touch wood)

They said the bus was speeding fast & to make matters worse it was an Indian dude
behind the wheel of the bus which caused the entire accident.

The poor guy was in the "limelight" for the wrong reason.

Can't blame that guy. Come on, their schedules are packed & they are delayed in bus stations. They have to speed up to go according to their schedule.....I guess.

I then started to make crazy scenarios.

One of 'em was to put myself in that position.

Imagine being in a bus which has impacted at high speed & turned over.

I am lying in a cramped up position & all messed up. The pain is unimaginable.

I think to myself, today is my last day.

Moments of my life flash before my eyes, then everything whites out.

I wake up in a white space & hear a voice, which asks

How did you feel when you knew today was your last day ?

Well, happy and kinda sad at the same time.

Happy because :-

1) I was able to go back & see my parents & have a good time.
2) I was able to enjoy playing old games with my new graphic cards.
3) I defeated 2 Chaos enemy armies using The Inquisition, in the name of the EMPEROR (using Inquisition Mod for Dawn of War:Dark Crusade)

Sad because :-

1) I was not able to play Call of Duty 4 : Modern Warfare 2.
2) I did not complete ACCA.
3) Did not take the time to LOVE.

Then suddenly it blacks out, on my HUD it displays :-

Mission Incomplete........Reboot

GASP* I suddenly wake up in a hospital. I see a doctor with a defibrillator.

I am alive !

Mmmmmmmmm......what a crazy scenario eh ?

Just shows how valuable life is.

Finally I get the saying "Live Every Day As If It Were Your Last".

Well, sadly & honestly I cannot do that.

Why?

I am an ACCA student.

ACCA = hell/ shit hole( according to 1 of my lecturers & I agree 100%)
ACCA = NO freedom (semester break = 2 weeks)
ACCA is the only course with the SHORTEST holiday !!!!!!!!!!

Do you remember the final lines in The Dark Knight ?

If you don't, they sound something like this :-

James Gordon Jr.: Why's he running, Dad?
Lt. James Gordon: Because we have to chase him.
James Gordon Jr.: He didn't do anything wrong.
Lt. James Gordon: Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.





Now imagine asking me something like this later on when I am a qualified accountant regarding students doing the short-cut ACCA course:

You : Why the heck do this ACCA students have no life & study 24/7?
Me : Because they have to, it is the fate they choose.
You : They didn't do anything wrong then.
Me : Because they are accountants Malaysia deserves, but not the ones it
needs right now. So ACCA we'll hunt them down because they can take it.
( I hope so )
Because they are not accountants.
They 're - silent guardians (making sure the books balance),
- watchful protectors ( auditors who try to catch fraudsters).

They're - CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS !!!!!!!!!!!!






LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!! HA ! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !

Come on, you gotta laugh about your carrier once in a while !

Why so serious ?



Cheers, have a good day !

Tragedy in the North - South Expressway on Sunday Night

The time was nearly 7p.m.,

I left Malacca at around 6.30 p.m. heading back towards KL,

After exiting the Ayer Keroh Toll Plaza, the road was smooth up to the Negeri Sembilan border,

After that, traffic just built up and it turned into a traffic jam,

I was kinda shocked as traffic jam only start towards the Seremban exit known as the Light Zone, this is because from there on the highway is full lit by street lamps.

It was only 35 KM from the Ayer Keroh Toll Plaza, but as i got closer I begin to see what had caused this massive jam.

When the jam started this early, I already knew there was an accident but what I saw was no ordinary accident involving 2 cars.

It was very bad, in fact it was the worse kind of accident I had ever seen in my life.

First, I saw a white overturned van. As i got closer i realised the divider was smashed up and towards the left was on overturned red bus. A bit further away was another bus which was kinda badly damaged.

In between was a black car which had turned 270 degrees.
2\3 of the highway was blocked by the vehicles which were involved in the accident.
Only 1 vehicle by 1 vehicle could move through the gap .

There was a massive jam heading towards the South due to the collision. Thank God, I was heading North or I would have been stuck in a massive traffic jam.

The road was full of plastic debris which indicated this was a high speed collision.
Since like 5 vehicles were involved, I could guess that the minimum death toll would be 10.

The buses would have been surely packed as many would be returning from a short weekend holiday.

There were many people who got out of their vehicles trying to help the unfortunate but it was hopeless as 2 vehicles had overturned.

I unwind my window and I could smell blood in the air. I knew it as i have been to hospitals. I could hear people moaning from the darkness of the overturned vehicles.

Due to the jam, ambulances and fire engines from Seremban were held up, so help was going to take a long time to come.

If it came from Melaka, it would have taken lesser time and besides Melaka is nearer.
With every passing moment, more people would be dying.

I just hope help from Melaka would arrive on time.

Many casualties would be from the overturned bus because I am sure not many would have been wearing their safety belts and would have been thrown around.

Thank God, I did not see any corpses which have been flung out cause I am sure I will never forget it.

When I returned to K.L, I called my dad in Melaka & he notified me that Melaka Hospital was in Code:Yellow & was expected to receive 50 victims from the accident.
Code:Yellow meant all staff on duty as well as low ranking specialist (I guess) must be on duty.

If it was Code:Red then ALL staff must be on duty. I think it would have been Code : Red later.

It was bad, I hope that there will not be many casualties.
May the force be with the victims of this tragedy.

One things for sure, this is definitely going to make the newspapers headline tomorrow.

A Storm Is Approaching

A storm is coming in my world & in the "REAL" world too.

Storm in my world cause everything is going to go chaotic after the Raya holidays.

Lecturers are gonna go super fast to cover the entire HEAVY syllabus and soon after that will be MOCK EXAM. (The Battle of Helms Deep)

If you can't cope, you are in DEEP S*#T !

but hey, that's ACCA.

You can't just pass with brains, you need 100% put in your effort & study like mad. Well thats what one of my lecturers told me.

But I prefer the recipe in Remember The Name by Fort Minor :-

10% luck
20% skill
15% concentrated power of will
5% pleasure
50% pain
&
100% REASON TO REMEMBER THE NAME* (in this case the theory)

Things aren't looking to good in the REAL world too.

Massive floods, land slides, forest fires, Two asteroids to pass between Earth and the moon's orbit.

Mmm....I wonder if 2012 is really going to be Judgment Day ?

Whatever it maybe I think all of us will make it through eventually.

I would like to quote the Archangel Michael in a movie called Legion

"When God chose your kind as the object of His love, I was the first in all of heaven to bow down before you. My love, my hope for mankind was no less than His. But I have watched you trample that gift. I have watched you kill each other over race and greed... waging war over dust and rubble and the words in old books. And yet, in the midst of all this darkness, I see some people who will not be bowed. I see some people who will not give up, even when they know all hope is lost."

The Only Way

Mmmmm....long time since I have last blogged .

I guess being a blogger is like being an artist,

You need the a spark of inspiration to ignite.

I think I found my spark.

Now, I am doing my 2nd semester for ACCA & things do NOT look fantastic !

The battle just got harder & everyone around will do ANYTHING to survive !

Some lose their human side & turn into machines !

No wonder people stereotype accountants as people with :-

1) No life
2) No sense of humor
3) People who do not talk and just sit down punching a calculator and writing down figures.


Citizens of the United States of Malaysia, I can assure you that I am not one of THOSE people.

I will not give up my HUMAN side and become a machine !!!!!!!!!

When things get from bad to worse, it cannot go down any further,

the ONLY WAY out is for it to get better.

In simple terms, when you hit ROCK BOTTOM the only way is to go UP.

This is why eventually we pull out from an Economic Downturn.

So, find the SPARK, IGNITE & propel UPWARDS to GLORY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Twilight VS Predator

In Alien VS Predator, it was technically the humans who won. Err..well with the help of the Predator.

I wonder who would win if it was Twilight VS Predator. I am not a fan of Twilight and the only part in the film which ain't boring is when there is fight which happens on a rare occasion.

One thing for sure is that I am a Predator fan. The Predators aka Yautja are alien species with advance technology and love a good hunt which is challenging. So now and then they come to Earth and fight elite soldiers,criminals and cops. For the ultimate challenge I think they should add vampires in their list.

NOW thats EXTREME ! I would like to see a Predator blow off a vampire's head with a plasmacaster.

I really don't get the "hype" about Twilight. It is really annoying to go to a cinema to watch Predators when it is full of people wanting to watch Twilight. I think the cinema people should open seperate counters for other movies like Predators, Toy Story 3 and bla bla bla.

Predators are no doubt more cool than vampires. Their gear and arsenal of weapons is amazing. The way they hide and hunt their prey down no doubt earns them their name.........:PREDATORS.

The cool thing about then is their multi-vision mask, active
camouflage/invisibility and their energy weapon aka plasmacaster with the 3 dot laser target.

What would be the best way to avoid detection of a Predator via thermal vision?

Well, covering yourself in mud seems to be a good solution as seen in the first Predator movie but it wears out quickly if exposed to water.

The best way I found in the Internet through Wikipedia is to use a black plastic bag....a big one to cover your entire body like a Ghillie suit a sniper wears to conceal himself.

Psychic

Forget Professor X, he does not exist.

Talk about Paul the Octopus !!!!!!!!!

Yes, the psyhic octopus predictions on the world cup matches have been accurate so far.

The most anticipated will of course be the match between Argentina & Germany.

Paul has predicted Germany will win.

God bless Argentina & Diego Maradona.

There are a few skeptics out there and there will always be skeptics.

But I am kinda convinced because the octopus is a unique species and is known to have INTELIGENCE.

Some have active camouflage i.e. defence like the Predator from AvP has or in simple terms just blend into its surroundings.

They are so mysterious and not much is known about these magnificant creatures.

Who knows, they actually have psychic abilities ?

Can you accept the fact?

Let's see if Paul can accurately predict which team is going to win the World Cup
