thoughts on a cold saturday

well, today supposed to go for a gathering but it turned out to be cancelled.So i decided to stay home since it is a rainy day. School's gonna start in less than 2 weeks time. Am looking forward to it, but the few weeks or months, i may be "Du Zhi Xia" hahaha.. Dont think i will make friends so easily.

Ok,here's a summary of what i am taking for this semester.

1)Statistic 2

2)Maths 2

3)Intro to International Relation

IR is basically about the study of interactions between sovereign states in a globalizing world. It has to do with the basic question of war and peace. We are interested in the causes of war, and how states can promote win-win relations

4)Corporate Finance

The main topics covered are: Project Evaluation, Risk & Return; Asset Pricing Models: CAPM & APT; Derivative Assets: Characteristics & Pricing; Efficient Markets: Theory & Empirical Evidence; Capital Structure; Dividend Theory; Mergers & Acquisitions


5)Principles of Banking & Finance

I am quite interested in IR but i hope my interest does not die off so easily as i have a paper to sit for at the end. Haha. Think it would be a good course to study as it promotes critical thinking and also allows me to read more about the world (since i do not have the habit of reading the newspaper) This course will start cultivating the habit of doing so.

Not to forget about Corporate Finance. I hope this is the stepping stone for me to explore more of the Finance world. I have been trying to explore on my own, but some stuff when you dont get it, its hard to move on. Yeah, so hopefully, it is really a START for me.

Right now, i am still working part time, the school time table looks quite clean for me to handle (as in working part time too) But when November comes, it would be more packed. If situation allows, i will continue to work. I've decided not to go Cambodia already, by going, i would have missed 6 lessons. I thought it may not be the right time for me to go. Will find chances in future ba.

My mind and body are in conflict now. My mind told me to go jogging but my body always says "tmr then go lor". And tomorrow never comes. LOL. I am getting so lazy...zzzz... later see how...maybe going...maybe not...
