notes from a soon to be stock buyer :D

Interesting facts picked up from this course, EquitiesTracker.com. :)

Accounting is the language of business, you have to learn it like a language. You can't be comfortable in a country if you aren't comfortable with the language. To be successful at business you have to understand the underlying values of a business.

Want to meet Warren Buffet? You can meet him in his old school, University of Columbia, New York. Please pay USD$144000 to be his junior. You might be able to have meal with him when he visits his old school. :)

Buying stock is like buying a property, eg, a house. There are a lot of homework/research to be done before you acquire it.

Most of the investors in retail market get almost 0% return. So, if you want to gamble, please choose Genting. At least, the chance of winning is 30%.

What holiday?

Hey! I'm stressed! I'm in need of desserts! Preferable something chocolaty... :)

This is most probably my last long holiday before the next one comes many years later but here I am, being stressed over it. Sigh... Real sighness...Argh!!!

Attending classes, will no longer be my regular activity in the next few years, at least. No, I have not graduated. I'm waiting for the results of last 3 ACCA papers that I sat this early June at the moment which I think I won't make it. (prudent or pessimistic? you decide) However, I'll stay put in employment regardless of the outcomes. I would say I'm adamant on this aspect. Well, I think I'm in the category of getting bored of a student's life. It's end of June right now and my temporary job will commence next month in a small accounting firm belongs to my dad's gila friend ( that is how my parents call him okay? oh, my gila boss!) while looking for a permanent job. Where is my land of toiling then? Honestly, I'm open to many places. But seriously, where is it? I see nothing! :( Am I too rush in getting the answer? Maybe. A reminder to self: Things will only be beautiful if it happens in God's timing. Oh Lord, I need thy divine guidance!

Next, it is so hard to meet up with secondary school friends. Firstly, it is because of my undeniably weird holiday periods. Secondly, I'm bound by transportation. But friends are sweet enough to pick me up. :) Thirdly, clashes of activities. Fourthly, let me think. All of these obstacles teach me the value of friendship. A kind of relationship that is bonding rather than binding. I miss them so much! :( I have no choice but to skip this coming Sunday seaside gathering due to clashes of activity. I'm truly sorry for not joining again my friends. :( Please play/eat/dance to the fullest on behalf of me.

Talking about meeting up with friends, it's even harder to meet up with friends from Stamford College Malacca. Main reason? Cinderella must leave before the clock strike 12! But the party cannot start anytime earlier than that because most of the guests just cannot make it. One of my friend is getting marry. I want to meet up with her 'before it's too late!'

Weight management anyone? It's under construction for me. Gosh, temptation is so real! Why try so hard with my own limited ability? Do not I have a Almighty God?

You know what?
I'm committing everything into God's hands.
And be thankful.

Not so mayhem after all but mayday is still needed

I have too many things in mind. Some are important and some are just trivial matters. Once again I lost my word in writing and orally. It could be due to the pathetic fact that I have not been engaging myself in good chat for a long period of time. I missed talking, and many other things. It is getting gloomy...

Halt.

On the bright side, my new house is comfy and I feel so bless to live in this house. The price is amazingly cheap! According to people who live in this area. Other than that, I have read 5 good books so far! (An achievement?) That is because I have no one to talk to. -.-''' But it changes the way of me looking at things and to try out different approach. Heck la, reading really makes one grows! It is definitely a smart investment. No doubt on that.

Note: For those who are paying income taxes in Malaysia, the the book relief amount is 100% of what you paid for books purchase from bookstore. :)

Going to camp next week! My long anticipated broga experience and sunrise watching! Here I come!

Bang Head Here

Try it at your own risk.

May is approaching. O come what may!

Weakend & Strongend

" Oh Yes! Yes! Yes! Tomorrow is Saturday! "

It shows how joyful am I in welcoming Saturday. Last time. The situation is different right now. At least, at this moment. I feel bored of staying at home during the weekend. Lethargy-ness is eating me up. I just feel the urge to get out of the house. What is happening? Is this another changes? In term of lifestyle?

How to turn weakend into strongend? I want my joyful Saturday back! Fast!

Emo... =(

Marching Month of March

I ushered this month by updating my facebook status to Sherene must march macholy in this marching month of March. Have I accomplish that? Well, the only thing I do know now is that today is the last day of March. Thankfully I'm not working yet or else I be caught in quarterly jam, preparation of first quarterly report.

I have not been to any welfare home in my whole life. Oh, apathetic-ness! That is not true. It is just that I don't have the chance to do so. But, I got the chance of doing it this month! On the 20th, the ladies from my church here visited a drug rehab in cheras which I find it saddening on me because I had class on this day. T.T Never mind, I visited an orphanage, House of Matthew in Gombak the next day. ^^v The kids were on holiday so we didn't have the chance to see them. We repaired furnitures and painted the gate etc. Sherene paints! It was fun la! I got suntan though.

The painters:

In case you are wondering where are the guys, they are with us, but just not in this pictures.

Attention!

Who say accountants are boring people? Our life is full of colors.

In the name of love, we paint!

Last week, the youth leader here asked me to help out in youth camp. I was given administrative and treasury role, which fits me well. I... dare not give my commitment to help out in the camp. Reasons: 1) There will be comm meeting that is for sure. But I'm not sure is that how things get done here. I would then have to skip a lot of meeting as I have weekend class. Sigh. 2) My exam is approx 10 days away from camp. Should I go? The question I should ask is will I have the peace of mind to join the camp?

My weekend classes are taking away too much of my time for God in church. Just too much! However, it motivates to get rid of this coming papers. The end of weekend class. Hopefully!

There are 2 persons that I believe it is not just mere coincident that we meet.

Number one.

I met her in inti. She hangs out with my ex-roommate most of the time. Right now, they are roommate. She is my classmate for one paper too. She first came in touch with Christianity during National Service. Awesome!!! She is truly interested in knowing the stories in the Bible. She talks to God every night. She said that she can't sleep well if she doesn't say a pray before bed. (Me too!) She even wonders will she be punish for praying to 2 different gods. I've been trying to get her to care group and church. She is fine with this! The barrier now is, our darn weekend class. So should I then spend time with her telling her Bible stories? And bring the gospel to her eventually? She is searching for the true God, that is for sure.

Number two.

I met her in my church youth camp more than 5 years ago. Yet, last 2 weeks ago we met again. Cool! She seems reserves, tired of life, dislike of the past and lost in direction. Err, I don't know how true is my observation. We will see. She told me not to tell so and so that she met me because she doesn't like to listen to those 'stuff'. She meant the gospel. I plan to text so and so to tell her that I'm with her initially. You know the excitement of meeting into people of you wouldn't expect to? Glad that I choose to pay attention to lecture and not texting so and so.

God, what do you want me to do with these friends? May you speak through me. May they hear You. Time is running short! There is a very high chances of us not in the same class next sem. Teach me how to love, how to care. I need the wisdom to bring about Your words to them. Teach how to live my life as you will it, to be Your good ambassador.

Next is my youngest sis birthday but none of her sisters are at home to spend time with her. However, she is equally busy. She has competition on her birthday. =.= And got good results, as usual. So, ah jas if you are reading this, I wish you happy birthday again! Double blessing, double joy!

Let me introduce a new friend here. She is Michelle, another pretty Ipoh girl. A friend from RBS 2006 which is my badge. I was so glad that we spent one Saturday for lunch and shopping. I know a little bit more about her. ^^ Our waves length is quite the same too. I wish I know her much earlier on. She is leaving to UK this May. Argh! Time is running short! Now, we still have April and May to gel-gel. I want a sticky one.

I met up with hun chee. A senior and friend of mine in inti. She gets to travel around as she is working as an auditor. I always get one free snack during meal time as she will pay for it. Aww...I just don't want my body to digest those snack. It keeps me warm. Thank cute! Talking about travelling around with the minimum expanse as most of the expenses are covered by her company, I would want this kind of job too. Auditor?

I love friends.

I have a lot more to pen down here. Just too many in my head. But I'll stop here at the moment.

Sherene must march macholy in this marching month of March.

Have I accomplish this?

I would say fairly okay. There are room for improvements and good points to pick up. :)
