"Politics is applesauce." - Will Rogers
one of the quotes i used in my OB assignment.
for meaning of applesauce, check up urban dictionary.
basically, it is a slang word for "ridiculous" or "nonsense".
as expected of the 3 queens in my assignment group, they don't know the meaning of applesauce, except "苹果酱".
after i told them the meaning, they just can't stop using it for the whole day.
"you are applesauce la!"
"你依个苹果酱。"
i put it on my facebook status at night.
- You're the applesauce la!
and the comment is epic...

another arsenal summer heartbreaker
for the whole week, there's news about cesc fabregas leaving for barcelona.
it's nothing new to hear an arsenal player going to barca, think overmars, van bronckhorst, petit, hleb, henry, and the list goes on.
for those who need history lesson, cesc was bought to arsenal from barcelona instead back in 2003 when he was 16 (born in 1987, same age as me.) every fan watched him grow and develop to become the heartbeat of current arsenal. but everyone knows he'll one day leave and return to camp nou, but maybe it's sooner than most people expect. every season, there will be news about barcelona wants their boy back, but just never happened.
but now, it seems like it's likely to come true, after what was reported as an "emotional meeting" with arsene wenger. again, the key player of the team to leave in the summer? captain, talisman, heartbeat, whatever you want to call fabulous fabregas, is leaving after signing a long never-been-more-expensive contract with arsenal? many fans feel cheated. i'll say it is as expected that he will leave, though i am expecting it'll be next summer. but still this will break my heart to see him leave. no one can blame him, arsenal is going backwards and barcelona is the best team in the world. his former team mates and childhood friends have been winning silverware every season, but arsenal wins nothing. so it is stay and be a legend, or leave to win titles.
with all sort speculation, there is still no news of advance negotiation or confirmation. when such news appear, fabregas will always step up and claim those are rubbish and he's loyal to arsenal. or wenger will just deny such trash. but none spoke this time, but maybe no news is good news? it does no one any good to keep an unhappy player, so lets just farm a good deal out of it.

ASSIGNMENTS
end of post...
alright, that word can just summarise what happened recently.
currently, i'm doing just 3 assignments concurrently. i said "just", because i'm very sure there are people who have more. the main problem with that 3 assignments, well, maybe the problem is with me...
1. organisational behavior workshop: group work, unhappiness between group mates.
2. computer info wtf excel shit: i'm just noob in excel, i believe it's quite simple to those who just know it.
3. business omgwtfbbq research method: this is tough, really, everyone says that. lots of preparation, research, reference, planning, and basically involves everything in the course.
-----
school work aside...
the one thing that all of you asked: i'll be flying to singapore on 27 june, reach on 28 june. i know i'm missed =\
back for less than a month though, summoned back by my parents.
-----
alright, back to work. =\

五月天 - 如煙
one of my favourite mayday songs, if not the favourite.
can't wait to watch the concert on 12th may!
詞/阿信
曲/石頭
我坐在床前 望著窗外 回憶滿天
生命是華麗錯覺 時間是賊 偷走一切
七歲的那一年 抓住那隻蟬 以為能抓住夏天
十七歲的那年 吻過他的臉 就以為和他能永遠
有沒有那麼一種永遠 永遠不改變
擁抱過的美麗都 再也不破碎
讓險峻歲月不能在臉上撒野 讓生離和死別都遙遠
有誰能聽見
我坐在床前 轉過頭看 誰在沉睡 那一張蒼老的臉
好像是我 緊閉雙眼
曾經是愛我的 和我深愛的 都圍繞在我身邊
帶不走的那些 遺憾和眷戀 都化成最後一滴淚
有沒有那麼一滴眼淚 能洗掉後悔
化成大雨降落在 回不去的街
再給我一次機會 將故事改寫
還欠了他一生的 一句抱歉
有沒有那麼一個世界 永遠不天黑
星星太陽萬物都 聽我的指揮
月亮不忙著圓缺 春天不走遠
樹梢緊緊擁抱著樹葉 有誰能聽見
耳際 眼前 此生重演 是我來自漆黑 而又回歸漆黑
人間 瞬間 天地之間 下次我 又是誰
有沒有那麼一朵玫瑰 永遠不凋謝
永遠驕傲和完美 永遠不妥協
為何人生最後會像一張紙屑 還不如一片花瓣曾經鮮豔
有沒有那麼一張書籤 停止那一天
最單純的笑臉和 最美那一年
書包裡面裝滿了蛋糕和汽水
雙眼只有無猜和無邪 讓我們無法無天
有沒有那麼一首詩篇 找不到句點
青春永遠定居在 我們的歲月
男孩和女孩都有吉他和舞鞋
笑忘人間的苦痛 只有甜美
有沒有那麼一個明天 重頭活一遍
讓我再次感受曾 揮霍的昨天
無論生存或生活 我都不浪費 不讓故事這麼的後悔
有誰能聽見 我不要告別
我坐在床前 看著指尖 已經如煙
(no regret!)

series of bad luck
i wonder where should i start.
maybe i should just pick out the more significant ones.
karma for kidnapping my housemate's "tou tou".
first, my laptop screen is damaged.
how?
i was too angry with my assignment score that i threw my mouse at the screen. believe it?
when i wanted to bring my laptop downstairs, it slipped off my hand and flipped... and smashed against the corner of my table.
as you can see, 2/3 of the screen can't be seen.
called to check for repair the next day~ "it will take 46 days to repair."
great, i've an assignment due on tuesday.
so i went to city to buy a monitor.
samsung 20-inch LCD.
maybe i should feel lucky that i don't need a new laptop.
more limitation to my table's space. -0-
-----
carried my laptop in my bag to school and consult my tutor on my assignment. planned to go city after that.
while i walked across the road to the bus stop after consultation, my bag's strap snapped! and yes... my bag dropped in the middle of the road which left my laptop with more damage. and maybe i should again consider myself lucky not to get bang by car. (i just watched another car accident several meters away from me when i walked to school.)
when i carried my monitor home, the car almost crashed into me at the slope.
marvelicious~
still alive to eat my sushi and do my assignment.

not satisfied at all
i made my way down to collect my assignment which i did weeks ago, with hope that i could do decently well.
and last thing i want is anything below my expectation, but a slap by reality again!
67.5/100 <--- noob score!
i just took a quick look at it since i was going to a tut, and there was a comment "you've made good critique point.".
so in the critique section which is 30% of the whole assignment, i get a just pass for it. so i made good critique point which only capable to reach just pass. while my table, i saw negative things on it, but i had high distinction for that? wtf.
talking about that, it was marked by my tutor.
and i had very specific warning from my friend who did this course before, "dont go to her tutorial, join another. you'll suffer."
just when i used to think her way to bring material over is below par, but seems like there's more to it.
there were around 15 people in the 1st tut, followed by 10, 8, 5... and the new low was 2. and i had been quite faithful, not to change tut. -_-
maybe i should have listened to my friend and just tut hop.
that totally demoralised me!
and yes, i'm angry!
motivation bar: [|||||----------]
rage bar: [|||||||||||||||]
anyway, the tutor who taught in the tut that i had after i collected that shit, is kinda 'my type' of tutor. he made sense to me at least. he gives me logical and understandable answer to my question, unlike the other. i like his "does that make sense to you?". quite funny anyway.
so after the tut, i was talking about the assignment score. he was trying to moralise me, "at least you pass." and clearly he caught my expression on my face that, PASSING IS THE VERY MINIMUM REQUIREMENT!
he went on, "do you know that UQ business school is ranked 20+ in the world? you will probably get a 80+ in other schools." and again i think he can read me that i was thinking, "yeah right, you mean oxford, harvard or campbridge?". he just lighted his stick and said, "it is much better than (named some schools which i dont want to name, so don't flame me if you happen to guess it's your school. but you get the idea? LOL)." then another teaching staff walked past, he grabbed her to join the conversation. lol. but one thing is that he didn't go "don't worry, cheer up, you'll do better next time." which i seriously hate to hear such type of comment.
anyway, i won't 自暴自弃 and throw the towel. gonna nail the 2nd assignment and the exam! a total of 80% up for grab.
seems like another episode of come back from me.
