Really hope Mum's Pre-School will be filled with SUCCESS, PROSPERITY, GOOD LUCK, GOOD HEALTH OF ALL TEACHERS, PARENTS AND STUDENTS AND ALSO TO THE BEST!!!

And to all who are having business, prosperity bestow upon you all, those working, may you all be filled with success and those studying, good luck for results and those who are old, good health..

AND PRAY FOR THE COMING RESULTS THAT I WILL BE ABLE TO PASS ALL AND SO WILL ALL OF YOU WHO TOOK THE EXAMINATION!!! (:

(Its another 23 hours till the end of 2010, so I'm wishing all in advance.. In case I'm unable to do a blogpost)

CHRISTMAS TIME!!!

ITS 24 DECEMBER ALREADY!!!

So fast.. Next thing you know, it will be New Year.. Time for a New Life and of course Resolutions.. Put the past behind and bravely march forward... haha... Thats the only thing we can do la.. Unless you build a time machine and then as and when you want you can just go back.. Come to think of it, Harry Potter's show got the small clock which is a time machine... Maybe borrow from them... haha.. XP

Oh ya.. Outing with buddies was great.. Going again next week, but this time is different.. It will be with family!!!

Got no time to write the outing.. So will do it together with the family one too..

I know I have been a lazy blogger this past few days.. Not my fault okie.. haha... Its because I'm trying to enjoy every bit of freedom I have now before starting work on the 3rd January..

I shudder by just thinking about it.. OMGee... Why so fast laaaa...

Well, MAY GOOD THINGS COME MORE!!! haha..

SO, HERE I AM, WISHING ALL THOSE READING AND NOT READING ALSO, lols, FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART,

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

TO ALL MY FAMILY, RELATIVES AND FRIENDS, THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING THERE FOR ME FOR EACH YEAR AND SHARING ALL MY JOYS AND SORROWS AND BEING PART AND PARCEL OF MY LIFE!!! LOVE YOU ALL BANYAK BANYAK (TO THE MAX) (: (: (:

till then,

THE A-W-E-S-O-M-E COUSINS OUTING OF THE YEAR!!! ♥♥♥

TODAY, I HAD A SUPER UBER FUN DAY!!! (okie... Correction, its yesterday cause now its 12am +++)

haha... And finally, I got my F-R-E-E-D-O-M and I had fun with all my 7 cousins... Though not all make it, but at least better than none right??? haha...

Had a great and enjoyable day... We sing till now I'm like clearing my throat every 10 seconds.. Pain like mad.. OMG... Must have sang and go crazy too much...

Got up early in the morning at 6.45am and then off to CC's house.. And hitch a ride from Mama Ros and went to Mama Eileen house around 8am ++.. Got there and found my guy cousin was waiting outside... hehe... and I pre-warned my other 2 cousins to be up before I come.. They sorta cheated tho... Went the car honk, they only got up (THINK I DUNNO AHHHH...) and wash their face and stuff.. They looks blow them off.. But they manage to get up and entertain me... Having some kind of makeover thingy with my cousin, VALERY, who lend me herself as my model... muahaha... THANK YOU COUSIN... (not like your sister, who went and watch 12 dancing princess.. dah la... How many times have you watched it??? )

And then we eat our post-breakfast and pre-lunch which the maid cooked.. and we got ready for PAPA PAUL!!! (salute to him!!! seriously... due to lack of cars and transportation problems due to number of cousins going to TC, we asked him whether can he fetched us to and fro from TC.. and he said okie... felt kinda bad cause he is taking his exams this Friday.. But he said that its okie... He can fetch us... I CAN SAY, I HAVE THE MOST SUPER UBER CHIO FAMILY + RELATIVES LARHHHH...) Then he dropped us there and oh ya... I forgotten... We actually break into 2 groups.. The boys will follow my Guys cousin while the Girls cousin will follow Papa Paul.. Cause we have some Xmas shopping to be done... And we sorta mad a pact to meet up in Stone Grill at 12pm.. But then due to some long-misunderstanding-communication-i-follow-who-and-who-follow-me-at-what-time-changing-cars-maids-cant-pass-message-extra-order-food thingy, we manage to get there in time to watch 2 movies.. (actually its we break into 2 groups)

And I OPTED FOR TANGLED TALE IN 3D!!!

Tickets were freaking pricey.. But you'll never know till you try.. I really had a hard time wearing the glasses which slips down every 5 seconds.. Wanted to wear contacts but when I saw the expiry dates on it (dated Sept 2010) I didn't wear it.. And guess what... Me, Anne, Valery and Gabriel wears specs while CC dont... So I was like holding it up one hand and eating pop corn on the other.. And during the show, there were some parts where it looks 3d and some it dont in which I dont know why.. And the part about the lanterns (whoever who haven't got the chance to watch, go and watch) it looks like flying marshmallow and I jokingly told Anne to grab one and it... Since its floating towards us.. Haha... We're like watching 3d with a big glass panel in front cause somethings were like cut off suddenly.. Like it hit the glass panel and poof... It disappeared...

Overall the show was okie la... Just draggy.. To get to their point.. But it was hilarious no doubt.. tee hee...

Here are some pics in the cinema..

ME AND ANNE

CC, VAL AND GAB

ALL 4 AFTER THE SHOW..

ME AND ANNE AGAIN...

We looks like Cyclops.. haha... Seriously.. So chunky specs..

And after that, we went and hang while waiting for the Narnia-ians to finish theirs.. Was pretty fast for them too.. And then we started to plan out for the next activity... Since we only have 1 car, Alan drove 2 rounds... And we got Starbucks before we left.. (Finally.. After craving it for 3 weeks) haha..

haha... We went to loudspeaker in Austin and sang for 3 hours till our hearts are contented... hee hee...

Really had a great day.. And after that, the usuals, Papa Paul came and fetch some of us and then we went back to Mama Eileen's house and had dinner...

And again, as I stressed again, IT WAS UBERLY SUPERLY FUN...

Dear Cousins...

I really really really hope you all had a great one... We shall do it some time soon.. Once I start working, it will be hard though... But I'll try to make it...

Love you all to the MAX!!!

P1 and the last ACCA exam FOREVER PLEASE!!!

YES... DONE WITH THE 2 MOST HARDEST PAPER E-V-E-R!!! Being and ACCA-ian is hard.. But thats a journey one needs to endure before reaching the goal a.k.a ACCA Graduate on the 21st February 2011..

And guess what.. Will I was talking to my Godma and she asked me when my license expired and I said 21st February.. And then she asked my when my results will be out.. And I SAID THE SAME THING UNCONSCIOUSLY!!! And suddenly I stop and giggled by myself..

Seriously, this whole week, or to say it is the 1st time I ever felt so stressed up for my exams... I never once sigh or even cry (and I really mean it... I cried hugging my P7 and P4 notes) that much as this week... I'm getting older this week... If you see me getting old, please dont say that to my face cause I KNOW IT!!! and I'm growing tiny white hairs.. Half black and half white... haha..

I really look at the books and I said to myself that I really need to pass all this time badly.. Cause suddenly, while I was studying, I felt like I'm losing my mind... Like my friend said to me, I need to take things at my stride and stop pressuring and stressing myself out... But seriously I tried and failed... I have the worst insomnia's ever for this sittings exam and the worst of all, I feel empty.. Like an empty shell... Geez... I feeling that now.. Totally blank... Nothing... Nada..

So I'm guessing this is one step of going insanity.. Often when I feel that, I will stop and pause and close my eyes.. It works all the time but not now.. Huhu... Stress lady la me..

Health check..

After P7 exams, I had migraines and FEVER!!! Always happens when I study to hard for something..

And guess what??? I'm having headache now... Guess it shows that I studied too hard for P4 tooo...

Hope all is well..

YOU CAN DO IT RAECHEL LUA WAN LING!!!

AND TO THE REST, YOU ALL CAN DO IT TOO...

Gonna post a great shout out to

GOD and ACCA!!!

Thank you for letting my realized my dreams after 3 years of blood, sweat and tears.. Please continue to shower your blessings and goodwill on to me..

I'M SO GONNA PASS THIS SITTING!!! AND THEN BE AN ACCA GRADUATE ON 21ST FEBRUARY 2011...

GOOD LUCK TO ALL MY FRIENDS WHO STILL HAS PAPERS TO GO!!!

Love,

Raechel

Oh ya... Posting up this pic.. See how many books and papers I have studied for 5 months... Only 5 months...

P7

Tomorrow's the day... The day which I have been waiting for for the last 3 years.. FINALS!!!

Hope I can do well and PASS THIS ROUND!!!

Pray for me and the rest who are taking their exams this round..

I think I'm gonna go bonkers.. My brain is like floating.. And looks like my soul has flew away.. So where far.. I feel like an empty shell.. Not my brains.. My brains is packed... Ready to be unbundled and the facts flowing to my P7 paper tomorrow!!!

Good luck to Christine, Evelyn, Angeline, Wei Ling, Jieyi, Fa Ying, Daniel, Gerald, Jal, Sherene, Yiyi, Saarah Mariee, Peter, Yuki, Pierina, Scandy and the rest... My brain cannot filter the names for now... So sorry...

Best of luck..

RR

When I'm stressed out!!!

Seriously, when I'm stress out, my mind dont seem to be with me.. It will be floating somewhere with the IAS and ISA, with the options and mergers plus with SOX and Combined Code...

And then as I was carrying my printie (my printer's name) in the dark (I have no idea why didnt I turn on the lights) and then the ink sort of slip and then the inks start bursting out like a black whole sucking in stuff but rather the other way round (if you are on the other side, things will be like spurting towards)

And yes... I made my very own graffiti with my bare hands and legs.. Not only that... My furniture seems to be pretty colourful now.. With splashes of 4 different colour (cyan, magenta, yellow and black)

My colourful 'tapak kaki'

and my hands...

Lovely colours eh... OMG... I really hope that all this can come out by tonight... It looks so gruesome.. Blekkk... Making me sick...

Okie... Gotta go now... I'm wasting loads of time updating and cleaning up the mess I made...

Bye...

Wish me luck for my finals... PRAY FOR ME!!! (THANK YOU ALLLLLLLLLLL)

RR aka Barney... XP

EXAM FEVER!!!

14 days more till P7 paper... And then P4 and the last one P1... I really really really hope I can pass all this 3 papers this sem... Please help me God!!! Been slacking for a while... Been really tired.. Cant focus nor concentrate when I start to open my book... But in order to pass, sacrifices need to be made RIGHT??? So I think I'm gonna turn in to bed now and then tomorrow I shall get up early and start swallowing all my notes down and process it to my brain... May the knowledge stays in my brain till death do I part...

So stress... And the pressure is rising... This happens I think to all CAT and ACCA students who are finishing their last few papers before adjourning to the next level/world.. And I do bet that all those who are on their way finishing all these papers are pretty excited with their exams too... Seeing Facebook and Twitter where so many people are hyped up for exams and seeing me here, being nonchalant (not that I want to... The mind is willing but the body refuses... PMS I think.. XP) about it, make me feel so bad... I so badly want to clear all my 3 papers before start working... Like this, I wont be unfair to both myself and the firm.. By the looks of it, if I were to work and study, I will either concentrate on studying and then neglect my work or vice versa... WHICH IS UTTERLY NOT FAIR TO BOTH SIDE!!! I am ethical... Lols..

Studying CAT and ACCA for the past 3 years really broaden and open my tiny little mind to not being so self-centered at times but also to care for others too.. Seriously, its not just being and accountant.. Also not only just counting numbers (in which I beg to differ... Who say all accountants do is count?? Not necessary la... There are so many fields an accountant can be..) But rather, some papers consists of ethical issues... In which it is good for both society and myself..

Well, gonna turn in for the night... Good night people...

Oh ya... I got bored and I took this... haha... (:

NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP,

I PRAY TO GOD MY SOUL TO KEEP,

SHOULD I DIE BEFORE I WAKE,

I PRAY TO GOD MY SOUL TO TAKE..

THANK YOU My 3 YEARS OF COLLEGE LIFE!!!

Been in college for the last 5 days.. In a row.. From Sat to Wed... Really, I thought I could go mad.. 8.30am till 6.30pm of classes each day...

And true enough, on Monday I was sick, down with a kinda brain strapping, compressing feeling...

Seriously, I really thought I was going to go mad... My brain was like pumping... Blekkk... Not gonna think about it or I'll feel it again...

Well, today marks the last day of P7 classes for me... MARK IT... LAST ONE!!! Gonna pass it...

Did a little surprise for my lecturer, Mr Jay...

We 'Prepaid' (this is what he calls it la... ) his birthday cum last day celebration.. BUT, he ah... Lols... I asked him to stand infront of the elevator, he didnt want... OMG... Plan fail sia... haha... But managed to 'surprise' him... Hope he's happy with it... haha...

(credits to Weiwei)

And about the last day thingy, I feel kinda sad... Maybe its due to the attachment... Studying for all these years and then now, I'm graduating and gonna start work next year... Seriously, thinking about it, its such a scary thought... I mean how am I, a 19 year old girl gonna fit in to this vast and political environment... Although its hard but I'm sure I gotta learn and be independent from now on...

It was a great experience for me for the last 3 years in Sunway.. So I'm glad that I have managed to enjoy this 3 years of college life..

Met new and close friends and get to know deeper the old one...

Thank you Evelyn, Christine (my cousin), Angeline, Wei Ling, Sotong, Saarah, Fa Ying, Jieyi, Nana, Wan Sia, CAT January 2008, ACCA January 2009, my lecturers, Miss Irene, Miss Ang, Miss Vivian, Miss Nadia, Miss Kelly, Miss SW, Miss Diana, Mr Jay, Mr LMC, Mr LCK, Mr Ashok, Mr Hun and Mr Oviyan and also to all Sunway supporting staff, Miss Leong and Nitia, marketing, finance and SSD, and all those whom I have met in other classes.. Those who have become part of my memories and my life now as friends... Thank you for going through with me my 3 years of college life, by making the best years of my life..

OMG... I'm feeling so emo now la... Gonna cry...

Well, it has been a journey definitely.. and once again, THANK YOU ALLLLLL....

Love you allll... (:

Good luck to all SPM-ians, CAT-ians and not forgetting, MY ACCA-IANS...

Do your best.. and Hope to see you all in the corporate world sooonnn....

Love,

RR

Story of an eraser and a pencil...

Was emailed to me by someone... Just found it interesting and touching... So I'm gonna post it... (:

Pencil: I'm sorry....

Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry cos you get hurt bcos of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one, I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad. :)


I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational. Parents are like the eraser whereas their children are the pencil. They're always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way... they get hurt, and become smaller (older, and eventually pass on). Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying, or sad.

This is for all parents out there.....
