Practicum Day 44

Every Monday will be a very bad day, a day with a bad mood.

Although I slept early yesterday, I woke up late today.
I really don't have any motivation to go work.
Look at how many days to go, it's still 81 days after finished today.
81 days, sounds like a long journey to go.

Today is the final day of February, we are stepping into March 2011.
Look at the calendar, there is no public holiday in March.
Look at April, there is none too.
These two months are going to be a long moment to go through.

Today, I phoned the client.
I don't really like the client I am dealing with now.
They are unfriendly, and they are hard to be dealing with.
I hope I could finish this task faster, then I don't need to deal with them anymore.

To rate on today, out of 10, I will give only 2.5 I guess.

Accident Around UUM

A very sad thing happened around UUM.
A Proton Waja and a Kancil crashed together near EDC, UUM.
Two were found dead in the accident while another one injured.
All of them are UUM students who stay in Muamalat Student Residential Hall.
They are all 23 and studying hospitality management.

It's so pity that two of them couldn't survive.
They are 23 years old only but already left the world.
I believe their parents are crying now.

R.I.P: Teh Shiew Cien and Lim Hsiao Pei.

Lim Seow Ching, the fortunate ones, survive from that accident.
Although she survives, she is going to have a tough moment I think.
Her friend died beside her.
In fact, she is having her practicum training in EDC, and her friend was fetching her there. See! Practicum is the cause!
In the following days, perhaps she will be thinking that the accident will not happen if her friend didn't fetch her there.
She is going to suffer mentally.
I hope she will get well soon, physically and mentally.

Whatever happened, has already happened.
We can't change anything. That's life.

I know none of the victims, but I feel sympathy of them.
When I was searching who they are, my mood turned down.
If I describe my mood as weather, then it will be cloudy day.
They are 23 years old only, you know.
Why should their life be taken away?
Why their life ends in this way?
They are very unfortunate.
I hope this kind of tragedy will not happen again in UUM.

Our English Is Economic

I was viewing back my emails which I received years ago. And I found one email which is interesting, so I share it here.

Who says our English is "teruk"? Just see below -
Ours is simple, short, concise, straight-to-point, effective etc.
The English did invent the English Language, but they cannot use it economically when communicating their intentions.
Compare these phrases that Malaysians and Britons use to say the same thing.
Why make things so confusing and waste of money when you are on a long distance call. Make it snappy!

WHEN GIVING A CUSTOMER BAD NEWS

Britons: I'm sorry, Sir, but we don't seem to have the sweater you want in your size, but if you give me a moment, I can call the other outlets for you.

Malaysians: No Stock


RETURNING A CALL

Britons: Hello, this is John Smith. Did anyone page for me a few moments ago?

Malaysians: Hallo, who page?


ASKING SOMEONE TO MAKE WAY

Britons: Excuse me, I'd like to get by. Would you please make way?

Malaysians: S-kews


WHEN SOMEONE OFFERS TO PAY

Britons: Hey, put your wallet away, this drink is on me.

Malaysians: No-need, lah.


WHEN ASKING FOR PERMISSION

Britons: Excuse me, but do you think it would be possible for me to enter through this door?

Malaysians: (while pointing at door) Can or not?


WHEN ENTERTAINING

Britons: Please make yourself right at home.

Malaysians: Don't be shy, lah!


WHEN DOUBTING SOMEONE

Britons: I don't recall you giving me the money.

Malaysians: Where got?


WHEN DECLINING AN OFFER

Britons: I'd prefer not to do that, if you don't mind.

Malaysians: Doe-waaaan!


IN DISAGREEING ON A TOPIC OF DISCUSSION

Britons: Err. Tom, I have to stop you there. I understand where you're coming from, but I really have to disagree with what you said about the issue.

Malaysians: You mad, ah?


WHEN ASKING SOMEONE TO LOWER THEIR VOICE

Britons: Excuse me, but could you please lower your voice? I'm trying to concentrate over here.

Malaysians: Shaddap lah!


WHEN ASKING SOMEONE IF HE/SHE KNOWS YOU.

Britons: Excuse me, but I noticed you staring at me for some time. Do I know you?

Malaysians: See what, see what?


WHEN ASSESSING A TIGHT SITUATION.

Britons: We seem to be in a bit of a predicament at the moment.

Malaysians: Die-lah!!


Practicum Day 43

I went out to have dinner last night, so now only I post about my practicum yesterday.

Friday is always I wait for. It is the last day of working in each week.
Yesterday, I had statutory audit at the morning. So I believed the day would pass very fast.
And I felt so excited to finish work yesterday. I invited to have dinner with my best friend.

Well, time passed really fast yesterday. It was a very rush and busy day.
Once I reached office, I started to continue my work. Normally, I would wait for 8.45 p.m. before I start my work.
But jobs were waiting me to be completed, so I have to rush it.
When I was finalizing the report, another colleague asked me whether had I checked for the other company's report.
Two tasks to be complete at once.
Luckily, my colleague helped me to check it.

My colleague and I planned to go for statutory audit at 9.30 a.m.,
however, because I failed to complete the jobs, we delayed.
We departed from office at 10.30 a.m.
We were heading to Bishop Street and look for the firm.
We weren't sure about the place and we were asking people.
I found a postman, I felt so glad because I finally found someone who really can help us.
Unfortunately, he led us to the wrong place.
We finally found it at 11.30 a.m., it was so late.
We actually planned to conduct statutory audit in two firm before we went back to office.
Due to the delay, we failed to do it.
We went for statutory audit again after our lunch.
After back from the statutory audit, I continued rushing my job.

Finally, the time was 5.30 p.m.! I took bus home with cheerful mood.

At night, my best friend and I went to Straits Quay to have our dinner.

And then, a rushing day and a nice night of Friday is over.

Thursday 24 February 2011

Practicum Day 42

Today is a better day perhaps?

After my boss reviewed my job, he talked to me for a while.
He commented that my job is okay, he will see on whether how much will I improve late on.
As I always say in my blog, my boss is used to scolding people. His requirement is very high.
So, I am quite satisfied on myself today, since I was given comment that my job is okay.

I felt good at that moment, and it increased my motivation level.
One millionaire told my friend before,
there are types of people.
Some people will be motivated when there is stress, but some happen to be the other way around.
I am definitely the second time.

When positive scenario is approaching me, I will be better.
Perhaps, if you don't give me deadline, I will complete the task faster.
And if you give me a deadline, I will only complete on the last moment.

If my boss behave like that everyday, perhaps I will stay in audit field.
But everything is too late, I have decided not to. I know where I should be heading to now.

Tomorrow will be the final day for one colleague of mine.
She decided to leave the firm and continue her internship at the other firm.
All the best to her in new firm.

Besides her, my boss phoned up the mother of another colleague.
They were in some sort like argue on the phone.
And my boss wanted to terminate her as well.
Will she be terminated? We will only know in coming days.

I am waiting for tomorrow, it's Friday again!
Even happier, I will be going out for statutory audit tomorrow.
I guess it will be taking up half day.
So, I guess the time will pass very fast.

Have a nice day tomorrow!

Wednesday 23 February 2011

Practicum Day 41

My colleague was on leave again today.
I wished to absent too.

Remember? I said that my boss planned to sack my colleague who is in internship too?
Today, I got the confirmation from her. This Friday is going to be her last day in our firm.
She phoned her lecturer who is in charge. Her lecturer told her that it's up to her for decision.
She decided to change firm.
I wish I could do that too. I really don't wish to stay here.

Anyway, I wish her all the best in her next firm.

Usually, our boss leaves office at four something.
But today, he left at around 5.15 p.m., he never been so late since I joined the firm.

Suddenly, I forget what I want to express here.
So, stop here.

Have a nice day.

Tuesday 22 February 2011

Practicum Day 40

Yesterday, my colleague was off for taking STPM result. He got 4 flat. Cool, congratulation to him.
Today, he came back for work but he is going to off again tomorrow. He is attending a talk regarding university application tomorrow.

Another thing happened today is that,
the lecturer of two of my colleagues, who are having internship too, came to our office to visit them.
That time, the boss wasn't in. So, the lecturer approach our senior.
It makes me wonder what will happen when my supervisor visits me.
If my supervisor approaches our boss, I believe I will be given bad comments.
Criticizing people is one of the hobbies of my boss.

I didn't sleep well last night, I dreamed about my work.
The possibility for me to dream about my work during weekdays is quite high.
Perhaps, it's about 80%. And I consider that as nightmare.

I couldn't solve today problems. I decided to bring some work back to home and try to solve it.
But many obstacles block me.
Firstly, I missed out few pages and I couldn't complete it.
Secondly, the time is limited.
Worse, after I complete a part that I could, and I was about to print it, I couldn't find the cable at first.
After I found, the printer fail to function. Please, stop playing me.

I do really try to cheer myself up, I really did!
But the continually problems keep dragging my mood down.

Again, counting down, 85 days remaining.

Monday 21 February 2011

Practicum Day 39

Just now, I chatted with my best friend.

He: How many days left?
Me: Left for? My internship? 86 working days.
He: Cool. You really got countdown. Still very hate?
Me: Ya.

I couldn't stop myself from hating my practicum life.
I am too weak to stand the stress I am facing.
The problems is making me headache.
Honestly, I am able to feel that the tension has make my body to get weak.
I could feel my health status is weakening.
I want to try some ways to relax myself, but I don't know how.

Time, now, I am really hoping you can move faster.

Practicum Day 38

38 days are over, there are 87 days to go, still a long time to go, isn't it?
I always didn't update my blog on Friday night, I feel tired to do so.
After Friday night, I wish to take break first.

Talk about Friday, it didn't seem too good.
As usual, several problems approached me.

There is one company that I am auditing, I am waiting a document from them and the task will be completed.
Unfortunately, they didn't send it to me on Friday.
It then creates problem to me.
Actually I wish to get it on Friday, then I can send that to my boss's daughter for tax computation.
Why must I sent to him on Friday?
My boss's daughter is going to take one week leave I think, due to sick.
So, who should I pass my job to? That's the problem.

The new task I am conducting now, there is problem too. I don't feel in mood to tell the problem.

On Friday, my boss suddenly asked me whether UUM's law degree is recognized already.
I told him as I knew last year, it didn't.
Then, he kept scolding on the education system.
He scolded a lot, that made me feel as if I was get scolded too.

Tomorrow going back to work again, I am feeling bad again.
After this week, there will be 82 days to go, which means 65.6%.

Man Lives With Knife In His Head

If a knife was stabbed into one's head, what will happen? The person will probably die, right?
However, there is one man survives for four years!

I am not joking, FOUR YEARS!

A Chinese was stabbed by a knife into his head during a robbery 4 years ago.
After that, he suffered various types of pain.
He went to hospital for several times, but none found the real cause behind the symptoms.
Now, he finally discovered in a hospital in Yuxi, China.

After the operation, he is now recovering in hospital.

Amazing, isn't him?

Phonebook Is Now Available In Facebook

Today, I realized another feature in Facebook.

Now, phonebook is available in Facebook.

How to look at your phonebook?
Here is it.

1. Click on 'account' at the right top part.

2. Click 'edit friend'.

3. At the left column, click on 'phonebook'.

Then you will see the list of your friends' phone numbers. Is that nice?
I believe some people will like it while some don't.

Practicum Day 37

It's 37th day.
I was assigned a new company to audit.
Although it's the first day I audit on that company, I have started feeling the problems are approaching me.
I have really tired to face the problems.
During my lunch break today, my friend told me that I looked tired.
Yea, I am totally mentally tired.
Many people are trying to cheer me up, trying to motivate me.
Sometimes, I wish to tell them,
'just stop it, there is no use at all, better spend your time to do your things.'

Let's stop talking about me for now.
Today, one colleague who is in internship took leave.
Guess what happened.
Our boss phoned her university and telling that he wants to sack her.
Oh no, that's bad to her.
She have come the the mid of her internship, and now she is in the border of getting sacked by boss.
What a pity case, right?

The Earth Is Sick, The Society Is Sick

2012 is getting so near, will it be the end of the world? Nobody knows know.
What we can see now is, the world is getting sick.
Disaster is getting more serious all over the world.
The weather is getting weird, will 2012 be the end of the world, we will know it in next year.

The world is really getting sick.
Now only the earth, the society is getting sicker as well.
We can hear a lot of news regarding committing suicide nowadays.
Committing suicide seems to be getting common now.

What's going on?

What happens to human being?

I believe everyone can feel that a lot of people are now living with stress.
And end up, a lot of people who fail to overcome the stress, choose to end his life.

Many people are now chasing for money crazily.
Trying to earn more money isn't bad, but the problem is, a lot of people have forgotten the ultimate goal is life, getting a happiness

Life should be happy, isn't it?
But who are moving towards it?

I wrote another post similar this in Mandarin.
Check it out here: 万物之‘灵’

Practicum Day 36

I felt down when going to work today, just as usual.

Troubles, troubles and troubles.
Every company I audit, has it own problem.
All problem seems to be new to me.
Even it's a simple task, there is also new problem that I never met before.

Previously, we have Mr. Sean to make review for us.
He will correct us when we miss out anything.
But now, he has left.
So, our job is now directly reviewed by our boss.
Any error he found, we might get scolded.
So far, I never pass my job directly to boss for review before.
Tomorrow, after the report is printed, I will be passing it to my boss.
I hope it's going to be all right.

Wish me good luck ya!

World's Longest Kiss

Valentine's Day is over. Did you enjoy your Valentine's Day with your beloved ones yesterday?
Do you give your beloved a kiss? How long is your kiss?

Do you ever kiss your love ones for hours?

How long do you think the world's longest kiss would be?

1 hour?

2 hours?

5 hours?

12 hours?

24 hours?



No! It's even longer!


In year 2009,
32 hours, 7 minutes and 14 seconds record was set by a couple in Germany.
This record has been recorded in Guinnes World Records.

In this year, a kissing marathon was held in Thailand.
The winner of this marathon will be winning a diamond ring worth 50,000 baht (RM4,970.77) and 100,000 baht cash (RM9,941.55).

In this kissing marathon, the couples have to stay on kissing all time.
Even when they are eating or drinking, they have to continue kissing.
So, they have to use straws for drinking.

The hard part, they are not allowed to sit, sleep or leave the venue.
However, they are allowed for bathroom break every three hours.
Although there is bathroom break for them to go toilet, they must not stop kissing as well.
So, they have to continue kissing while using the toilet.

It sounds interesting, isn't it?

14 couples have lined up to take part in the contest at 6 a.m. on Sunday.
The couples are ranged from 21 to 51 years old.

34 minutes after the contest started, one woman fainted. Others left after few hours.
Seven people successfully locked their lips for more than 33 hours, which is longer than previous record.

Want to know what's the final result for the contest?

A Thailand couple wins the contest with the amazing result of 46 hours, 24 minutes and 9 seconds! Congratulation to that couple.

Valentine's Day 2011

February 14, I guess most of the people know what day today is

Yea, it's Valentine's Day.

And this year is the first Valentine's Day of my lovely girl friend and I.
Unfortunately, I had to work today and she had classes in UUM.
We can't celebrate our first Valentine's Day today.

But, I still delivered something to her. It was successfully delivered to her during her dinner.

Here is what I delivered to her.



Thanks to some people who have been helping me to deliver this to her. Thanks you guys very much!

Well, there is another special thing in this heart shared RM10.

Here is it.



0214, February 14.

After she went back home, another dedication from me delivered to her.



My lovely Lipei,

I couldn't be with you during this Valentine's Day, sorry for it. I hope we can celebrate it next year. I hope you like all the things I deliver for you.

I love you, may we be together forever.



I wish also all my friends and visitors who are in relationship have a nice Valentine's Day.
May you and her/him can be happy forever!

Practicum Day 35

Another day passed, 90 days to go.
Today is Valentine's Day, but I could celebrate it,
I have to go work while my lovely girlfriend is in UUM.
Why not Valentine's Day falls on yesterday, then I can celebrate it.
It's the first Valentine's Day to my girlfriend and I, but we couldn't celebrate it. Sad.

As usual, I don't have mood to go work.
I slept late yesterday. I was waiting the time to pass 12 a.m. so that I could wish my girlfriend Happy Valentine's Day at 12 o'clock sharp.
This morning, I got off from my bed at 7 something. It's quite late.
So I departed from my home later today, over 8 o'clock, but I wasn't late for my work.

I thought I could finish the company I am handling today. Unfortunately, there are still pending items.
While waiting for the pending items, I got nothing to do.
I informed my boss, and I was assigned by 2 other tasks.
One task was simple, just finalizing the account of a small company.
Another ones, I couldn't say anything yet.
What I know, it was a complicated job.
And I have to qualify it in auditors' report for sure.
So, I couldn't imagine what problems are waiting for me.
What I can say is, GOOD LUCK to myself.

Rio Fiesta



Many friends know that I love Mamee's products.
I love its Mister Potato, Mamee Monster, Nutrigen, Mamee's noodles and so on.

And now, Rio Fiesta!

When I passed Econ Save Supermarket today,
I grabbed the chance to step in and search for Rio Fiesta, and I found it.
It costs RM2.25 per bottle of 350 ml.
I bought 2 bottles, with orange and apple flavour.

Well, the taste isn't bad.
For the orange flavour, the oranges are imported from Brazil, a nation with great oranges.
That's why this product is named with the word of 'Rio'.

And, for your information,
currently, it's available in EconSave, Tesco and Carrefour.

Just, I shared with my friends,
and they said that it's a little bit sour.
Perhaps, it's a great choice for people who love sour?

I am waiting for Mamee's next new product. I am looking forward to it.

A Man Changed Sex To Woman, And Marries A Woman

Kerry Whybrow, 66, a former fireman in Britian, changed his sex to become a woman.
But what happened then is that, he or she...
Should I say he or her? I am not sure too, let's say 'he or she'.
He or she then marries a woman.

Sounds weird, isn't it?

He or she changed to become a woman and then marries a woman.

So, is he or she a woman or a man?

Some people say that the world is getting weird nowadays,
but some people call it as interesting.

Whatever is it, that's the world.

For further reading about 'him or her', check it out here:

A Rapist Sentenced To Jail For 1,874 Years

I read something in Daily Chilli.
A rapist has been sentenced to jail for 1,874 years!
The Taiwanese lived with his daughter after divorced with his wife,
then he started to rape his daughter for the first time in 1997.
He raped his daughter every week since she was eight years old.
She was continually raped by her dad until 15 years old.

How many times she was raped?

268 times!


She is so unfortunate to have such a dad.
268 times you know.
A little girl with just 15 years old have already been raped by 268 times,
it's really a very sad story for the girl.
How can that man treated his own daughter like this.

Under Taiwan's law,
a man who raped a child under 14 can be jailed for 7 years and 2 months,
while 3 years and 4 months for raping child ages 15 and above.

So, raping for 268 times caused the man to be jailed for 1,874 years.
He is going to live in jail for the entire life.

But, no matter how long he is going to be jailed,
the terrified memory continues to remain in the mind of the girl.

New Look For Pages In Facebook

I went my blog's page in Facebook just now, and I found something.

Here is it!



Let's take a closer look.



Cool! It's a new update for Pages in Facebook.

I clicked on the preview and took a look how was it.
Then, I decided to make the change.

Here is the new look of the pages.



Have you click 'like' on my blog's page in Facebook?

Let's give some support.
Click HERE to visit to my blog's page in Facebook.

Practicum Day 34

It's Friday again! It's holiday again tomorrow! Yeah!
It's so nice when thinking that I have a break tomorrow!
I could have a rest tomorrow, get out from stress temporarily.

4 colleagues on my floor were on leave today.
It made the office seems to be so blank and quite.

During lunch hour, my friend was having lunch with her colleagues.
At the same time, 2 colleagues that I sometimes have lunch together, were on leave.
So, I had to have my lunch alone today.
I finished my lunch in 10 minutes, and got back to office.

Then, I had some chat with my colleague.
Don't know how, we talked about my plan after my practicum.
Then I told them that I am not going for any job for 6 months after my practicum,
I am going to be full time investor and blogger.
Then, they asked me about investment and blogger stuffs.
Suddenly, my mood got much better.
I was much cheerful.

So, what can be proved over here?

I love investment and blogging life!

Secondly, I seriously don't like my practicum life.

Thursday 10 February 2011

Practicum Day 33

As usual, I feel lazy to go work today.
My family and I departed earlier today.
We went for breakfast before going to work.

This morning, I started thinking whether did I make the wrong decision.
Few colleague are going to on leave tomorrow due to praying for tonight.
I didn't want to on leave because I need to replace for that leave, and my practicum is going to end one day later.
But today, because of laziness, I felt that I should apply for leave as well.

Today, one colleague asked me a question,
among accounting, auditing and taxation, which one I prefer?

At the first moment, I wanted to say 'neither, I prefer investment.'
But after thinking, I actually do love three of them.
So, guess what answer I gave?

Accounting?


Auditing?


Taxation?







Well, here is the answer I gave,

'I love all, but don't like work.'

Is that a good answer? I guess so.

万物之‘灵’

小鸟懂得自由,
小狗懂得忠诚;
万物之灵的人类呢?
不断的在为钱而挣扎,
一步一步的成为金钱的奴才。

人类呀人类,
在以前不文明的时代时,
人类常成为人们的奴才;
但在现今文明的时代里,
竟然成为了非生物的奴才。

有时,
为了金钱,
出卖了友情;
为了物质,
出卖了亲情。

人类呀人类,
你们到底是万物之灵,
还是万物之零?

Practicum Day 32

My blog has become my dairy for my practicum life.
I post about everyday of my practicum.

Actually it has one advantage.
I don't write my practicum log book everyday due to tiredness and laziness.
Sometimes, when I want to write it, I forgot what have I done on that day.
So, my blog comes in use. I refer my blog and recall back what has happened on that day.
It is so helpful, isn't it?

There is lecture by my boss again today. Somebody was get scolded.
Luckily I didn't get scolded today.

Today, there are some troubles, and I started to feel headache.
It made me feel so tired. Luckily, my headache gets better now.
I could feel myself getting weaker since my practicum started.
I was coughing since the first day of my practicum.
Every time my cough gets better, it gets worse again at the followings day.

Few more months to go. Again, I hope that the time can pass faster, I want my life back.

Memorable Birthday In Year 2011

Yo! 2 days ago was my birthday! I am now officially 23 years old!

This year's birthday is special, and it's a nice one.
I was with my beloved girlfriend when the time reached 12 o'clock sharp on 6th February 2011.

At the morning of my birthday, my beloved girlfriend brought me to beach.

I had my first birthday celebration for this year over there.



She gave me a cake.



Let me make a wish first.



Wish had been made, let's blow the candles.



It's time to cut the cake!



Come! Let's eat the cake!
Want some?
Nono, the cake is mine!



Thanks to my beloved girlfriend, although that's just a simple celebration, I like it so much!

My beloved Li Pei, I love you!



Here is the gift she gave me for my birthday.



Wow!
It's a wallet and a card holder!
Thanks!



Time for the real cake now!



My parents bought the cake for me.
Thanks, dad and mum.



Let's repeat the procedure again.

First, make a wish.



First step completed.

Second step, blow the candles.



Done.

Third step, cut the cake.



Done!

After having my birthday celebration at home.
Lipei, her sister, Kuah and I went to Queensbay Mall.
Lipei and I went for a movie. We watched Homecoming.

Before leaving Queensbay Mall, Lipei bought me a real cake.





After that, we went to McAlister Road to continue my birthday celebration.

Thanks to everyone celebrating with me.
Thanks to everyone wishing me Happy Birthday by mouth, SMS and Facebook.

Thanks everybody!

Practicum Day 31 (2)

I have posted 'Practicum Day 31' before Chinese New Year,
how come it's Day 31 again today?

I have actually made a mistake.
If you looked back the previous post,
you won't able to find 'Practicum Day 29'.
I mistakenly wrote 29th day as 30th day.
So, the 30th day should be 29th while the 31st should be 30th.
And today is the 31st day of my practicum.

As usual, I felt down since yesterday.
This morning, again, I was so lazy to wake up.
I totally fail to motivate myself in my practicum.

Before Chinese New Year, I was told to follow up a task from my colleague.
She will be on leave for these few days, so I will be following up her job.
It's simple, but I faced some trouble again.
I couldn't settle yet. I hope tomorrow will be settled.
I am also worrying of my current task. It seems quite hard.
There are somethings which I never faced yet.
It seems like there are new thing incurred for every task assigned.
This is the toughest challenge in my practicum.

Good news for today, I found that there is a holiday next Tuesday!
So, the total of date for my practicum reduced by one day.
Therefore, the total of date will be 125 days,
and today is 31st day, means that 96 days or 75.4% to go.

I hope time moves faster now.

想投降


一位小男孩,
为了梦想,
为了未来,
踏出了家门,
向成功的未来跨出了第一步。
小孩来到了大草原。
在无边无际的草原,
小孩只能以毅力继续坚持。
突然,天空下起了大雨。
看不到边际,
又找不到避雨之处。
无法前进,
不想回退。
那小孩好想跪下来说:"我投降了!"

Lichun of Rabbit Year



First of all, Happy Chinese New Year!
Everyone is welcoming the year of RABBIT.

But, do you know that we are actually still in the year of TIGER?

Oh? It has been Chinese New Year but it's still TIGER year?
That must be joking?

Well, it isn't joking.
We are considered stepping into the RABBIT YEAR when it's Lichun (立春).
Lichun means of the beginning of Spring, the first solar term.
It starts when the Sun reaches the celestial longitude of 315 degree.
Many people think that we have stepped into Rabbit Year after Chinese New Year,
but actually it's wrong.
Rabbit Year actually begins on Lichun.

So, when's the Lichun?
Lichun is going to be on tomorrow (4/2/2011), 4.32 a.m.
(Correction: 4.32a.m. is stated in GMT 0, so it's 12.32 p.m. in Malaysia)

Rabbit Year officially starts tomorrow.

Again,
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Practicum Day 31

Yeah! Today is the final working day before Chinese New Year!
I thought our boss will release us after half day.
I was waiting for that, unfortunately, it ended with disappointment.
During the lunch time, Miss Ma told us that perhaps we will be released at around 4 o'clock.
But the end, that didn't happen. We finish our work as usual at 5.30a.m.

I went for statutory audit today.
I tried to prepare myself so that I won't repeat my mistake.
My colleague fetched me there.
I thought I could finish it up within 30 minutes,
but we spent more than that.
There were some problems, and I need to deal with the people in charged.
But overall, task can be considered as completed.

After I back from the statutory audit.
I was informed that Monday is going to be off day.
I have one more day to rest.
I am not sure whether it's good news or bad.
It's good that I have longer holiday,
but it's bad because I need to extend my practicum for one more day.
I wish to finish my practicum as soon as possible,
then I can really get back to my investment and blogger life.

To those whose CNY holiday starts tomorrow, Happy Holiday to you!
