The Path of Time

This is the last day for 2007. Time to say good bye to the old and say hello to the new year that is about to come in a couple of hours time! :) Community Service Message on ~The Path of Time~ For those who are going to be drinking and partying all night long until 1st January 2008, take a cab if you need to go anywhere. Driving after alcohol is dangerous to yourself and to other innocent road users! Be responsible, drink responsibly! To those staying at home, give yourself a pat on the back because you are smart enough to avoid all the jams and road blocks. (i.e. you can afford to get stoned at home) but just remember not to overdo things and make a mess of the house! In other words, don't get too drunk and start puking all over in the house because it will be a lot of clean up. Be responsible, drink responsibly! For those planning to go for a real good meal - eating is one of the best things in life. But don't go overeating. Overeating can cause indigestion (i.e. great disco...

Late at night, finding difficulties trying to sleep I just hooked up the internet and started browsing for some inspirational stories. You'd be surprised how many stories are out there that can really touch one's heart. Here's one I found. ____________________________________________________ I Kid You Not Although I love children, I am content with knowing that motherhood is not in my future. _______________________ By Eileen Mitchell As I straddle middle age, I realize it's unlikely that I'll ever be a mother. Heck, in recent months I haven't found a guy I want to share a dinner with, let alone my DNA. But that's okay. Because throughout adulthood, while attending dozens of baby showers, I've been happy for my friends but have never felt that pang of envy, wishing it were I. Not once have I ever turned the same shade of green that washes o...

Global warming has been gaining much focus of late, and many have been suggesting solutions to reduce the threat of global warming. Ask anyone the main cause for global warming, and you'll find fingers are pointing at fossil fuel usage. It is difficult not to blame fossil fuel for being the main cause of global warming and let us not forget we too contribute to global warming (i.e. car fuel comes from fossil fuel, cooking gas, diesel generators that produce household generators). With the growing number of fingers pointing at fossil fuel, many have proposed the use of biofuels. Naturally, the parties suggesting it are mainly developed countries. After all, they are the ones with the knowledge and technology to develop biofuels. However, the idea of biofuels has fueled much disagreement and controversy. Here are quotes from authoritative voices in the environmental arena: "The stage is now set for direct competition for grain between the 800 million people who own automobiles, ...

Emiya Shirou is the sole surivor of a great fire that wiped out a substantial part of the town he lived in. The fire had robbed him of his parents, and he was saved by a sorcerer named Emiya Kirutsugu who became his step father. His step father too succumbed to illness and left Shirou alone. Learning basic magic from his step father, Shirou vowed to champion justice. Life for Shirou as a normal high school student took a different direction when he one evening stumbled upon two powerful warriors figthing. One wielding twin blades, and one wielding a lance. Shirou was soon killed by the lance wielding warrior after Shirou was seen witnessing the fight. Strangely, Shirou wakes up feeling disorientated and recalls being stabbed by the lance wielding warrior. Most surprising, he finds himself alive because of his certainty his was stabbed in the heart. Unknowingly, Shirou has gotten himself into a battle of sorcerer in which he was not supposed to witness. Subsequently, the lance wielder ...

So there are some of us here that are really pro-Windows users, but deep down in your heart you are wishing you had a dock like the one Macintosh users get to play around with all the time. But then, you do not want to be over spending on a Macintosh that is probably over-priced in Malaysia, and spending too much time trying to get used to a Macintosh if you really do migrate your workstation from a Windows to a Mac. Let's not forget, Macs can get pretty unfriendly for users who have probably been on a Windows since they started using a pc. The solution - some great guys at Punk Labs decided to make Mac's ever popular dock availabe for Windows users. It's called RocketDock . That's not all. It's free (i.e. you don't pay a single dime unlike a pricey Mac), and it is user-friendly and fast. Check out the screenshot I took from my desktop: I installed it, and initially did not expect much since I thought it probably wouldn't be good or it may take up alot of r...

Last day of D-Day for the sitting, and it turned out far from satisfactory. Frankly, I am expecting to fail this paper and go for another round in the next sitting. I knew the subject of Corporate Reporting has always been a problem for me even since my university days. Come to think of it, I never really understood the subject thoroughly and coming into ACCA, I am talking about the introduction of a plethora of new accounting issues and the demand for an in-depth understanding of accounting standards. Judging from my performance in the past six months, clearly I am in need of dire help. Only thing left for me to do for now, is to pick myself back up and try to get back on track. After all, every now and then we fall down, and the reason we fall down is because we can learn to pick ourselves back up. Most importantly, is whether I can put this downfall behind and keep pushing foward. Lesson learned from this experience: 1. Distractions have to be kept at bay, no matter what. At the end...

Today was D-day for me, and I underwent the first exam paper. I had no expectations for the paper and I only hoped to write as well as possible. With the new syllabus and the introduction of the 15 minutes reading time, I thought it would be better for me. It was only natural to think that 15 minutes reading time to annotate important points would help. However, in reality it did not make much of a difference because by allowing the 15 minutes reading time the examiner made sure the paper was difficult enough to warrant the 15 minutes. My thoughts on the paper: 1. It looked manageable at first take, but when I got down to it clearly it was not as simple as it looked. 2. The 15 minutes time, made me overestimate the amount time I needed to write the answers, thus making me think I could finish the paper quicker when in reality that was not the case. 3. I am not so sure if passing the paper is possible......... _____________________________________________ One way or the other I thank Go...
