Valorous Halcyon

Hey there! It’s me again! I know, quite annoying isn’t it? LOL! =p I think I should update more since it’s holiday wooohooo!!! Well, few days ago Semester 1 Exam result was out finally! Guess what I got? :p Praise the Lord that I’ve gotten straight As, unexpectedly and gratefully at the same time. I was expecting a B for FM but well it turned out to be an A! Too excited about it, and think that it’s one of the best Christmas presents I would ever get. Finally all my hard work has been paid off, it’s all worth it! Studied for the whole day, continuously for 3 weeks. I think I’m going to continue this study style cause it’s one of the most effectual methods, I believe. Should study consistently so that I wouldn’t face much problems later on, especially last minutes cramming. Oh yeah just to tell you all, that I’ve been sooooo unproductive for these few weeks since holidays started, cause I didn’t study at all! None! Zero! Well I’m going to start studying soon, just that I want to enjo...

Woooohooooo it's holiday now!!! Finally, the days that I longed for have arrived! xD Oh hey, I bet everyone knows that my Semester 1 exams had finally over! Woohooo hurray for that! Thank God that I managed to do most of the papers, well note the word "almost", cause honestly I literally screwed up my FM 2 - Mechanics! T_T Oh well it's over by the way, so just get over it man! My FM 1 was just so awesome that hopefully can pull up my FM 2 to grade A, so now I'm at the edge of getting A or B for my FM! Or .. hopefully not C! >.< Urgh, that's sucks if I ever get a C in my result. Opss, and sorry for the hiatus, for being such a lazy bum to update my blog! >.< Sorry guys! But well it's my blog, who cares, right? =p So, what've I done so far for these 3 days holiday? Oh wait today is the forth day! *Noted* xD Hmm, went to KLCC initially with my friends Rasyad and Ika for PC fair but since there was nothing much to see, we went to watch movies...

Yo what’s up everyone? xD I’m back!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone missing me? xP I know.. 2 months have passed since my last post! Ouch, that’s really long and I just realised it when I’m typing this. Sorry guys! Too busy studying for tests and exams! Just gotten some mood to write out something here! haha! xD  You know, just couldn’t imagine that out of no where I became so hardworking, staying back in the library almost everyday until 6.30pm just to catch the second last bus (the last bus is at 9pm), skipping my evening sleep and going to Casa’s study room at the first floor to study after having my dinner. See, how preoccupied I am! >.< Why? My Semester 1 exam is just around the corner, in 4 weeks time! OMG!!! Someone please kill me! >.< Believe it or not, I actually spend less and less time on Facebook—which is a good thing I suppose, and me myself couldn’t believe it neither. So it’s pretty normal for you people not to believe it! xD  Oh well, before I forget something, ju...

Hey guys, sorry for the long hiatus! I know I know, for over a month I never posted anything here and almost lost contact with you all, eh? Not all I believe cause I always on Facebook! OMG, here comes the trouble! I think I have a big problem with Facebook -- I'm addicted to it! Despite knowing the fact that Facebook is a very dangerous place where private invasion can be easily done, still I surf it almost everyday, every hour, every second. No, not that serious still but then yeah, it's still considered as pretty serious for me. Someone just literally said I'm so lifeless for spending most of my time in front of Facebook and should really find some life for myself. I have had the opportunity to sign myself up for a few clubs in college, but besides Christian Fellowship's meetings and events, practically I never attended any other clubs' meeting or training or whatever they called it as. Everyday after class I would be too tired and laziness always kicks in on t...

OMG OMG! So now it's the Merdeka Day! Again, patriotic songs and national flags are everywhere around the nation! =D It's time for us to think about the sacrifice that our forefathers did and appreciate what seems to be insignificant for the young generation now! From the independence delegation leaded by Tunku Abdul Rahman to the contributions all the leaders have made to our country, we should appreciate their hard works and enjoy our freedom now while we can. We might seem to gain freedom from the British colonisation 53 years ago, but we should aim higher to free from things that we have always wanted to change to a greater height. Like for example, people don't really like to pay toll as they are using the highway provided by the government or some companies, and they could change that! Heard that one of the Puchong tolls would be free of charge, just on the Independence Day this year, which is today! It's awesomeeeeeeee~~~ , which I hope for it to be true one day ...

Gosh I have been reading this book for 2 weeks, and I merely read 1/4 of it due to my busy schedule every weekday in college and various tests for my four subjects. My class starts at 8am and ends at 3 or 4pm every single day without fail, and I will be staying back after class for another one or two hour to finish my homework. Oh well, A-Levels life is so damn hectic, but heck, CPU life is even worst! Most of my housemates are CPU students, and everyday they have to discuss and do their coursework. Okay, stop ranting about hectic life of studying A-Levels.  Oh yeah, I would like to recommend this book — Against The Gods cause this is indeed a book worth reading, if you had deep interest in reading the development of risk management since centuries ago. Ranging from the history of how renaissance people came out with the development of probability theories by as simple as throwing dice to the contemporary risk management methods, this is definitely a book that you wouldn’t wan...

Student: Teacher, will we actually use Pure Maths(Further Mathematics) in our real life? Teacher: Not really. Student: Then why do we learn it? Teacher: Erm... For the BEAUTY OF MATHS! Student: Oh, why do we need to learn all these formulae? Teacher: To DERIVE EVEN MORE FORMULAE! Student: LOL! XD 

Finally, Mr. Peter—my Further Maths 1 teacher has finished teaching the very first chapter of Further Pure Maths—Summing Series/Summation. At the very first glance of this chapter, I was like “WTH~ So damn hard!”, but now, everything seems to be easy for me cause I finally got to hang on it—the style of the questions, that would usually being asked in the exams. Now only I understood why my seniors kept on saying that Summation is the easiest topic in the Further Pure Maths, cause apparently it is quite easy, if you try to understand it and familiarize yourself with the questions and “style” of the questions and answers. Oh yeah, I just had my second Maths test today and fortunately I was able to answer all those questions, except for the bonus question, which wasn’t really important anyway. The question was comprising of 3 sub-questions, and I almost got the answer for the first question, which would finally link me to my second and third questions’ answers! What a waste! But then ...

H ello everyone, I'm back! Had a hectic week indeed due to the various tests for Economics and Physics, as well as the typical killer -- Further Maths that gonna make me lost within the deep sea if I didn't study after class. Now only I understood how's the feeling of doing a Maths question for over an hour and two pages long, with a laptop in front of me of course! =P Summing Series still rocks babe! XD Although I admit that Further Maths is incredibly tough, still I like to do it! No idea why, maybe it's the passion towards Maths lies within me I guess. There was a day which I had to attend three classes of Further Maths continuously (one class per hour) and it did blow my mind off. I was like suffocating when I came out from the class! See the power of Further Maths? XD No worries, I still love you, Further Maths! Oh, I think I was really stressed out this week due to Further Maths and the tests given by my Economics and Physics teachers, which made me laughed like a...

Want to know any update about study? Hmm, well I think I'm coping well with Economics, Physics and Maths now, but not so pleasing for Further Pure Maths, which is still within the chapter of Summing Series for now. Just that I don't really comprehend about how this series can suddenly change into another, the process works just great for me! For Further Maths Mechanics, I think I'm having fun with it! Not much problem encountered for now. Oh yeah, I had just completed my first Maths test which covered the topics of Quadratics and Function, and I think I did well in it, but I got it wrong for second question, out of 6 questions. Never mind, let's let bygones be bygones. Up next, Economics and Physics test next week! Need to study it since Economics is a totally new subject for me, and apparently I need to understand and memorise some economical terms and theories, and try to apply those in the daily life. Hopefully I will do well in it! =) The Malaysian Studies a.k.a M...

Oh hey everyone! I know I know, I've been so quiet for all this while, or maybe just a week! =P Just to update myself, I have already relocated my apartment unit from A-17-06 up to A-19-05! Oh gosh, it's even higher now! Apparently some of my friends are envying me, saying that it will be cold at night and that's awesome since no air-cond is available in our apartment units, at least not for bankies. Undoubtedly, every benefit comes with a price that should be compensated, which is its downside! I have only one bankies house-mate, which is Harry Kumara, and he, or more precisely we, kept on complaining about the time we have to spend every day just to wait for the lift to reach our floor and take us down! Also, we have to wait for the lift to stop by one floor and another just to pick those people up, especially during peak hours (7am in the morning and 4pm in the evening). Oh yeah, finally I changed from middle room to MASTER bedroom! Wootz! That's so so so awesome t...

Amigos! I'm back to my home sweet home finally, after a week staying at Casa Subang and studying at Taylor's Subang! It was a really great experience that I had in this whole week, and apparently I met lots of new friends as well. Oh yeah, I'm now in PE11, a class specifically designed for students who are taking the subject combination of Further Maths, Maths, Economics and Physics. And guess what, I'm the class rep, again, and I have to do lots of works involving photostat notes and exercises! Why me??? >.< Never mind, at least I can get some remarks at the testimonial in the end of the programme! Met lots of new friends, and there are a few international students in my class - from Singapore, Taiwan, and Korea! They are really amiable, and I'm glad that I'm in the same class with them for these one and a half years. Since I'm studying A-Levels for 2 years programme, I would then have to repeat my third semester in my forth semester, and hopefully ...

Greetings all!!!  Yep yep, my new important chapter of life has begun today! No, I'm not getting married apparently, as what Jia Rong said in the blog! LOL! xD  I have registered at Taylor's College Subang Jaya today, met with lots of sponsored students of JPA, Security Commission, Petronas, and of course, my beloved Bank Negara Malaysia! =D Well, to be frank, Taylor's seemed small from my first sight, which I believe most of the people who've been there will agree to. Done all those registration things, and entered a lecturer room for briefing by the Principal of All Pre-U programme, Mr. Ananda and Casa Subang accommodation representatives. Then, we were all being separated and guided to the lecturer halls respectively, according to the sponsors. Apparently I was being guided to the lecturer hall for Bank Negara Malaysia scholarship, and later a speech was given by the manager of scholarship section, Madam Rafidah. She briefed to us about the allowances, requirement ...

The competition for the world most famous game besides Olympic Games finally arrived again, at South Africa this time! I believe almost everyone is so obsessed with the 2010 FIFA World Cup matches, and some of the people around us are actually gambling with those matches throughout the whole competition -- a common scene though. This is the time for all football fans to hang out, spend their time in front of the television or perhaps live on the scene itself to watch the most extraordinary game for them. For now, I have watched the match of Germany Vs. Australia, and it was indeed a perfectly interesting football match that I have ever seen. I'm not an avid football fan, but at least I didn't fall asleep throughout the whole match. Probably the match between Germany Vs. Australia is the first match that I watched every part of it! The most amazing part was, the forth goal by Cacau from Germany was scored just after 3 minutes the third goal scored by Mueller. Germany was ju...

On this past Saturday, my dad brought my whole family to the Award Ceremony to excellent bank staffs' children organised by the Central Bank of Malaysia. As everyone may has known, I got a mixture of 10A+/A's in the SPM exam last year, while my younger sis got 7A's in her PMR exam last year. On that morning, we woke up early at 7am and prepared ourself for the event. Once I reached the BNM building, me and my younger sis went to the registration desks to register our names; And later on my mom and I went to the desk to look for Miss Rafidah to get my contract documents. When I took a glance at the offer letter, once again I felt extremely grateful for getting the Bank Negara Scholarship. We were so lucky that we were treated breakfast in the building, and once again the generousity of the bank had been proven! While I was waiting the commencement of the whole event, suddenly Azrul Hisyam, my Facebook friend greeted me and conversed with me. Congratulations to him, cause h...

Hey people! I'm back! Sorry for the long hiatus and allow me to continue writing this blog! In this episode, I would be posting about my Singapore trip last week! My mom was having her business meeting with her colleagues from Japan, Korea and Taiwan in Singapore. So, me and my elder sister grabbed the golden opportunity to visit the Lion City while my mom was having her meeting. My mom took a flight from KLIA to Singapore, while me and my sis took a Konsortium bus straight to Singapore. Cut all those craps, all of us were staying in Mandarin Orchard Singapore, for 4 days 3 night. I knew that it's indeed a very deadly expensive hotel for us to stay. But no worries, the accommodation was fully supported by the company my mom works in, due to the official meeting with her counterparts from Japan, Korea and Taiwan. On Tuesday morning -- which was the second day there, my sis and I took a MRT from Somerset station to City Hall station for a walk around the area. What amazed me th...

While I was feeling happy and grateful regarding the call from Shell about the phone interview few hours ago, suddenly I saw an email reached my inbox signalling the title of BNM. I was really nervous about it, wondering what would that be from the bank. Here it is, the message conveyed in the email: Saudara Ng Chia Wei, Tahniah kerana terpilih untuk menerima Anugerah Biasiswa Bank Negara  Malaysia Peringkat Pra-Ijazah Sesi 2010/2011 bagi mengikuti kursus   Sains Aktuari .
