We at the Hotel motel holiday inn

It is day 4 of our Taiwan tour. The weather is starting to kill me slowly. I have been bitten by so many damn mosquitoes. I'm itchy all over. We bought this insect repellant which makes me smell like 80 year old Asian grandparents that use tiger balm or something.. On top of that, I left my deodorant in one of the previous hotels do I'm going to be Smelling like this for the next few days until I get to actually buy some.
I'm currently waiting inside the lobby of the lakeside resort that we stated at last night. The room we stayed had 4 queen double beds, and only the three of us stayed there. It was a pretty huge room! But I still had probably the most comfortable sleep last night.
Today we are catching the ferry around a particular part of Taiwan thats supposed to have the best mountain views and such. I think we will also be visiting a lot of temples today. Tonight we will be heading back to the city area for more market shopping.
I'm so excited to go to hong kong! I just can't wait to actually start buying shit. I've barely bought anything in Taiwan! Hong kong is where i am going to spend most of my money, if not all! I need to make some sort of list for what to buy in hong kong, there's just too much stuff!

The tour guide is about to call us onto the bus, so I'll leave it at here

Intermission

So far, I have handed in my torts assignment, as well as sat my STAT exam. I'm halfway done! Just two more exams to go, and then I am free!

Just on my stat exam. I thought it was a pretty tough exam. There were definitely some bits that had me freaking out.. all i can really do is hope that i at least passed! I'm pretty pissed off though.. I spend about 20 minutes trying to figure out this one probability question. They gave me values, so i drew up a karnaugh graph/map to work out the probabilities of each scenarios. Everytime i did it, something wasn't adding up. my rows and columns just never added up to 1, and in one of my rows i had a negative probability (which is impossible). The whole time i thought that it was just myself that was in the wrong. I thought that i was doing something with my calculations that didn't make sense. I guessed my answers and then left it. About 30 minutes after I did that question, the examiner announced that there was a typo and that instead of 20%, one of the probabilities was 5%. I quickly turned back to that question and re-did all my answers. Everything worked out in the karnaugh map. I was so pissed off,yet so relieved at the same time. I wasted too much time on that question!

anyway, i am currently taking a break in my attempt to all nighter. My plan is to finish off finance lectures tonight, then start some finance exams during the day tomorrow (and sleep). Tomorrow night, I will all-nighter once again for FAL, and then monday I shall do exams (and sleep). Then tuesday I will focus all day on finance. Wednesday will be finance exam, then thursday, FAL exams..then PARTY!

I'm sorry that this has been the second consecutive post of my rambling on about my exam timetable. It's just that nothing is really exciting in my life right now. As soon as exam period comes, i go into hibernation mode...or at least TRY to.. The only thing keeping me sane enough to avoid a psychotic breakdown is my music library, tumblr and this blog that allows me to write about pointless things in my study breaks.

happy exam period!

Camisado

I don't know why I'm wasting so much time not preparing for my exams. I don't feel as motivated as I did for my VCE exams. I think after my stat exam it will actually hit me that exam period is now, and that i should work harder for finance and FAL. I'm seriously just sitting around, doing nothing. Look, I'm even wasting time writing this blog entry right now. I should be burying my face in past exam papers.... I just can't wait until the stupid FAL exam is over. Once it's over, I'm just going to go mental. I've already planned next thursday out in my head. Exam, sleep, yumcha, bar, drinks, clubs, TETRIS! Then after that, possibly a repeat on the day after for my friends who finish then.

Oh well, i may as well be productive with my time and continue writing.

So this week my group in Canberra started planning for a trip to the Snow just a few days before next semester. It would be the day immediately after I get back on the 19th. I'm quite excited for it. After buying some snow gear, all I want to do now is just go and dig a hole in the snow and sit in it. I'm just that excited! That weekend is going to be amazing. I just hope that I don't get some sort of cold from it and miss out on Bush Week parties. We're planning to go to a place called "Perisher". I've never heard of it before...but I guess I didn't live in NSW previously and so have no knowledge of the geography. It's just like how some Sydney people have never heard of Bendigo or Mildura..

I've been pestering my dad this week about the car he apparently promised me. Fairly sure that it is going to be an Accord Euro. Typical asian. I'm just not sure on colour and models and stuff. But hey, all I care is that it is MY car and that it moves when I turn the key. I'm thinking that in the future when I make my trips to and from melbourne, I can car pool with other Melbournians and it'll be cheaper for everyone. Not to mention, fun. Of course, I wouldn't be driving every time I go back. that'll be too much work. I'm also looking for driving instructors to do just one lesson with me and take me to do the Government Driving Test to get my P's. I'm not sure if i can even do that, but I'll try. I want to get it as soon as I finish my FAL exam.

I'm starting to feel bad for my Melbourne friends because when I get back on the 19th, I'll be with my Canberran friends, which means that I probably won't be able to see them as much as I hoped before I leave for asia... It's only for 4 days, but still people still might get cranky. Even after i get back, I'll only have two weeks to catch up with people, and from what I remember from the last mid-sem break (which was two weeks) I was busy the whole time and only saw my main group on 2 occasions... I think that the only way is to make bookings with them early...like now, a whole month before it happens to make sure that they are free.. I'm thinking hotpot at my house and the usual singstar/wii parties that we used to do.

I've recently got back into some music that I used to like years back. I think it's because i put my ipod on shuffle when I study and all these old songs just come up. Anyway, I remember going through a huge "Panic! at the disco" phase. Here is Camisado, current song which has been on repeat fo the last 48 hours.

Anyways, I'm going to actually start some Stat exam preparation.

bye.
