Time Flies

It just seemed like yesterday when I started my MA course, but just yesterday, I completed and handed in my last written assignment (except the final big-ass dissertation of course), and presented my dissertation proposal on a 20 minutes Power Point presentation.

Just had a nice long dinner with a couple of coursemates yesterday, and we talked about the on-goings this year. All of us just can't bring ourselves to believe that this is over.

I had a throughly enjoyable time throughout my MA degree course, though I must say: it was alot of hard work.

Life Changing

Sometimes I wonder to myself, if I'd taken a different path in life, where would i end up?

Did you know - if Chungy had decided to approach life in a more conventional style, he would have became a:

A) Doctor
B) Architect
C) Lawyer

Choices A + B = I'll probably still struggle in university doing my BA(Hons) degree. Eugh!

Choice C = I'll be stuck in an office filled with black and white monochrome penguins, mastering the art of paper-pushing.

Maybe if I've decided to study abroad in Australia instead. Valz's photographs of univeristy life seems so carefree and relaxed, I wish I was there.

Perhaps going to US would have been a good idea. I'll come back with my "yoyo wassup bruva" attitude.

Now, I'm stuck here miserable doing my dissertation ALL OVER AGAIN. "This is the last..." I tell myself. I really can't handle another damp and cold winter in UK anymore.

PS: My dearest Fion is going back to Hong Kong in June for good. Talk about life changing huh?

Technological Age

I love the future. Teaching using wide-screen projectors and wireless keyboard and mouse.

Also, the most talked about new feature from Facebook: the Facebook chat. Speaking of Facebook, have I told anyone before that I hate people who put fake names and profile photographs? It's like: if you're so damn embarrassed about your identity then don't even sign up! I hate it when I actually have to make the effort to find out who the hell's adding me by sending an awkward "hey, do I know you?" message.

What happens when you add Facebook chat and state-of-the-art education technology together?

PUBLIC FACEBOOK CHAT!

I promsied Valz I'd post about this. Here it is. Was checking my Facebook in class when she popped up and chat with me! ^^

[Note the sexy wireless keyboard and mouse. Also, yes... They're viewing your profile and your photographs, Valz... ^^"]

Q: If you win $1 million, what would you do?
A: Savings + investments in properties and antiques. Typical Chinese hor? ^^

Q: If you meet someone who you love, would you confess to him/her?
A: How should I put it. Girls these days would just think you're desperate and scaring them awawy. I'd just make a very good first impression.

Q: Given an option, which brand of shoes will you buy between Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blahnik?

Q: What do you think is your most important thing in your life?
A: God followed by love (the whole lot) and technology.

Q: Are you a shopaholic or not?

Q: What makes you pissed?
A: People who think they're better than others; people who look down and threaten me.

Q: If given a chance, do you want to see your future?
A: Tempted, but no thanks. I'd just discover it day by day. It keeps my life more interesting.

Q: Would you swim in a vat of chocolate?
A: A bit too kinky for my liking... But if someone else joins me... hell yeah. ^^"
