the usual, last week, and whatever's on my mind...
So... how u guys doing?
Well well... last week was just any other week, just with less meeting and with better weather....nice... it was in the high 50s and mid 60s in the afternoon for a couple of days(that's about 15 - 20 Celcius...) the entire campus jumped to life in a matter of days, where u can see girls in skirts, ppl playing frisbee and throwing football everywhere... sweet...
so, i told u about the monday trapped in the elevator...and then, came Tuesday...
nothing much... as far as I can remember, it was just like the usual work, classes and back to my room... more basketballs... and some other stuffs...
Wednesday... work, classes, went to this really amazing documentary, The Future of Food, where I learned a lot about genetic modified food and many of the issues around it... it was really an eye opening documentary... and I think watching documentaries had really expand my horizon... (first Invisible Children, now The Future of Food... and prior to that, there's another one about Food = Waste)... amazing...
got back, and bought the season football tix (i'm not sure when I did this... more like I did it on Tuesday night...) :)
Anyway... so, came Thursday, work, classes, quiz (last quiz),, got back my MacroEcon paper, which I bitched about last week, but well, since I got a not bad score, and the marking was pretty lenient, due to the fact of lost of 20 minutes in the exam, I'm cool about it, but i still maintain my position that I would have done slightly better in the exam with the 20 minutes... but hell... Forgot what i did that night... NOPE... wait a sec... I went to play Laser Tag... a hall event organized by my fren's sis... quite a number of us (Joe, Doug, Alicia, Dane, Jarred, Alex and I) went Laser Tag at some where not so near... but since transportation provided, and it only cost $5... It was really fun, and I did pretty well... in my first round, free for all match of 30 players, I came in 3rd... not too bad for a first timer... and in my 2nd round, in a frantic match, which I hated the rules, of 29 players, I came in 10th... not too bad... but it was really intense... i was sweating like hell after the two matches... really... it was insane... went there and started playing at about 9.45pm... came back at about midnight, and reached the dorm at about 1am... hell... and I'm supposed to wake up at 6.30am to work tomorrow morning... and checked my email... and great news... and I'll be home for the entire summer due to the currently undiscloseable great news... I called home at about 1.30am... and dang.. chatted with daddy for awhile.. and fiddled around with my computer and all, slept at quarter past 2...
woke up the next morning at 6.30am... not feeling my legs... they were still pretty numb from yesterday night's Laser Tag... somehow scrambled myself to work, and after that, quiz and discussion... fell asleep in discussion... right in front of my GSI... :) way to go...
After the quiz, we went over it with the GSI... and i got the quote of the week...So, one of us asked a question about whether the Beta of the APT can be negative... and the GSI went... let me think about this, but a couple of us think that it's definitely alright because stocks can be negatively correlated with the market, hence, it's perfectly fine for a stock to have a negative beta with the market... after like 15 minutes... he agreed that beta can be negative... and the punchline... "I overthink about the question just now. Over-educated people tend to overthink too much." WHAT THE HECK... way to give yourself a pat on your back... lolz...
Another thing I did was me buying my flight tickets going home!!! yeah... finally, i got a confirmation of my flight date home (on April 29th... reaching KLIA in the afternoon of 1st of May!!!) and will be coming back (most probably) on the Aug 20th... finally, after 20 months away from home... i'm going home!!!
That afternoon, had a surprised birthday party(sorta) for my friend, Doug... at night... went to Bubble Island... and then, went party with Dane... had some beer... played a couple of beer games... got back to my room at about 3.30am... dozed off... woke up next day at about 8.30am, decided against going DP... not feeling well... a bit hungover...
in the afternoon, did nothing much, other than watching bball matches... and at night, drank some beer, watched family guy... just chilling with my frens...
Sunday, just worked and worked... and was really tired... did nothing much...
woke up Monday... started doing homework... way to start a week... well, pretty productive i should say... not too bad... classes and all... watched NCAA finals at night... at about 10.20pm, fire alarm went off... blardy hell, apparently, some girls forgot about their popcorns in the microwaves and burnt them, and the smokes triggered the firealarm... for the dunno how many times... thanks. dad called me at the perfect timing while i was walking down the stairs... chatted for awhile... got back into the dorm about 10.45pm... the game was boring... UF dominated the game... completed my homework around midnight, did some practice exam questions preparing for the upcoming midterm on Thurs, and went to bed at about 2am...
woke up this morning... feeling not too bad, work, classes... and back in my room... no big deal... and here i am updating my blog... :) i think i need some pictures up here... i'll try to get some... check back soon..
