ACCT.211.FC.2009.Test.GARG


Ok ok, in the mid test guide it says:

No. of question: 4 questions
Coverage: Topic 1-3
Up to Lecture 14


Topics:

1. SOCI & Changes in Equity

2. Asset Revaluation

3. Provisions Calculation

4. Asset Impairment


All sweet and dandy... but wait? The topics posted are only from lectures 1-9

sooo err... why study up to lecture 14?

No bonds premiums/discounts, warratees, shares BB?

Why emphasize and underline lecture 14?

Fin Test


There's been a lack of complaint lately.. so sorry about that

Ughhhh..... another broken promise.... our fin lecturer told us before our test that the test will be the same format as last year tests... what a bunch of S***

Ps: in case you were wondering why I chose this pic, today's ANZAC day so yeh..

1:06 am

Well, the pressure of having an audience is definitely on. Grammar Nazi alert. It feels like primary school all over again.

But back to the topic of "omg, who pissed in your cornflakes today?" Today I have a few rants.

First of all, I hate all you people out that who tell me, "Oh, I love rainy days...". I suggest you take a walk in it when you have somewhere important to go, wearing a poncho and slippers with no umbrella.

Second of all, did anyone realise that Chapter 9 of Finance 251 is just repeating itself over and over again, using different and complicated words?

Thirdly, why oh why when people go to Subway, they feel like they are at a gourmet experience? "I don't want my Subway toasted, I only want it heated. I want pickles, but only 2 and a half slices please. Can I just have pepper no salt? I'm on a diet so I want that less than 6 grams of fat sub... can I use that Add-On deal and get 2 cookies please?"

I had the misfortune to stand in line for twenty minutes for a normal Sub of the day because I met a big bunch of retards who did the same thing over and over again. And what's worse? They had the time to think about what breads they want while waiting for others, but noooooo, they just had to think about it only when it got to their turn.

FFS, there's only five kinds of bread! This is not "what's behind door number 3".

Last, but not least, though I am glad they moved the Econometrics tests back to May first, I am still emotionally scarred for giving up berry-picking to study for a test I don't have.

Broken Promises



The title sounds really gay (not in a homosexual way) but.. yeh...

Our accounting lecturer promised to post resources up over the break (hence, the lack of complaints lately).. We're about half-way through our break. Not a single resource has been put up... As Sniffle would say "men and their promises"


PS: Our blog has recently reached ("officially") 2000views, hopefully not all of those are made by our contributors...

Time curse

Nowadays, we bring our laptop to our friend’s house. Then we would ask for their wifi password and name. 5 years before this never existed; 5 years later this will be a necessity. If they don’t have a wifi network at home, it will be like not having a fridge now. Technology grows as fast as a reasonable person can absorb. One day, when we turn old or turn a bit slow, we will be labelled as expired, ending our useful life.

Smack that.

Does anyone have a piece of modern technology which has failed miserably in your hands, now you have to wack it against the wall (a few times) just to turn it on? 

I used to see it in movies - most recent one being "Zac and Miri make a porno" where Miri's apple macbook needed to be smacked a few times for the screen to show anything (btw i really don't regard that as a spoiler for the film so don't go thinking that was the best part of the movie or anything)

Now in my hands, is my phone. After (and probably due to) countless plummets onto concrete ground, gliding around the bottom of my bag nearly everyday, strange addiction my friends have to sliding my phone up and down randomly but also excessively when they see it, I now have to wack the phone to adjust the volume to play my music. Though I still haven't figured out the amount of force needed for each volume.. right now i'm working between a solid knock and a baseball throw against my wall

Amen for the symbiosis of technology and brute force

Day. Light. Daylight savings.

I think there should be some intercom that runs through every resident's house in NZ to enable informative communication and also serve as reminders when people like me blatantly forget about daylight savings then end up having an epiphany at the bus stop realising that she is actually an hour early for the bus she wanted to catch.

Boy that was a long sentence.

Anyways,this is a rage at all you people who didn't run to my house last night, slap me with a fish and say "daylight savings tonight, fool."

I resent the previous post by blogger "Wern".
I demand impeachment!

Whats the point


The equation for going to lectures: Going to lectures = Gain knowledge .

What would be the point in going to lectures OR Having lectures when everything thats going to be said is on the slides/document posted on the internet available to us where/when ever we want them....

Therefore... the new equation should be:
Going lectures= Sleep
= Play Collapse
= Go on MSN (Windows Live Messenger)


Do you know why people order alcoholic drinks when they are out at restaurants?

This ensures that the meal is good no matter how they serve it to you. E.g.

Picky Husband: FFS my steak is too rare! I asked for medium rare not a baby calf straight out of the womb!


Trophy Wife: Now now dear, they can recook your Fillet Italiano... and try not to shout, you're making a scene.

Picky Husband: Making a scene? MAKING A SCENE?

Trophy Wife: Waiter! Give me a Brass Monkey and two Fluffy Ducks!

... 5 minutes later...

Drunk and Less Picky Husband: tHiS iS tHe BEST bReAd in *hic* tOWn!!!

Enough said.

Quote of the day 2

'You still haven't started on mgmt? what a TANK!'-r

that's some tank

Caged animal


I knw I knw.. Im writing 2 posts in a row, who cares...

Just received an e-mail from the Math course co-ordinator, several (Im guessing 10-20) have left their ID cards behind after the test we had tonight......

Hmmmm I wonder why..... Could it be because Uni students memory aren't good.... OR...... Could it be because they couldn't wait to GET THA HELL OUT of there

*Ps. Im a bit addicted to the "align centre" format... so yeh...

Quote of the Day+


"We spent more time on math than on DOTA this week, that's how much fun math is"- F


On other issues,
The Big 4 are driving ppl nuts... distracting them from their lectures and scared tha hell out of them when they least expect it

Do your job. But don't do it too well.

We all want things to do what they should do. They're programmed to do just that. But there's comes a time when you wish things didn't do their job so well. Last night, I found myself stabbing away at my pot of frozen yogurt with a spoon like an angry yogurt-deprived child, wishing my fridge didn't freeze my pot of yogurt rock-hard that I end up with a bent spoon and a frozen hand.

And then there's the commercial packaging. Yes we do want our food to be properly sealed in their packages for hygiene reasons but with the time ticking by in the morning as I try to run to my bus stop on time, I do NOT have time to struggle over opening a WELL SEALED ham packet. See the story goes like this:

9.25am: Sniffle opens the fridge door
9.26am: Sniffle tries to open the packet of ham
9.27am: Sniffle struggles with opening the packet of ham
9.28am: Sniffle is still struggling
9.29am: Sniffle gets scissors and stabs the packet and makes a mess
9.35am: Sniffle has to run to the bus stop thanks to the stupid ham packaging.

Be careful what you wish for. It might just come true..with a little twist that makes you wish you never wished for it.
