2 Papers Down

What a bright sunny Wednesday Afternoon! Just climbed out from my comfy bed... decided to blog before i start my Microeconomics revision... was darn scared yesterday nite as i read thru the practice question... oh man... it really scared the whole life out of me... i really dunno how to do most of the question.. despite of some preliminary mugging last week... oh man... gotta buck up...

For the past 2 days.... my papers are like triggers of dissappointments where both papers are very tough.... monday i had a marketing paper... oh man the MCQ are like... darn tough la... then i move on the short answer question... hmmm ok... quite hard also... and then essay.... is like oh God... last question how to do... but manage to do that question also... really hope i can get minimum B+ out of this tough paper as i bidded 500+ points and never SU it...

Next which is yesterday... is my Macroeconomics paper... as usual my lecturer's question are super thinking one... this time even worse... the question he set... all his choices in MCQ is so hard that u gotta read backwards that kind? Is like u dun even know what he talking about in the choices that kind... and worse is the Short answer question... oh man it was a killer for the last question... think u really need a rocket scientist brain to do it... especially the explaination part... manage to do the last question and get the answers... like r=i=-0.2 which makes full employment output at 8000 dun tally with i more or equal to 0, and second part with Governemtn purchase and Taxes = 2000 and Nominal Money Supply to be at 12800. The explaination i totally crapped it... dun even know wat he asking. Anway the values i got... somehow i got revelation at the last 15min to know how to do. Thank God. Really hope i can get a Minimum B+ for this module and best A-... So next paper will be friday... Microeconomics... aiming for B cos i did badly for Midterms...

Easy Rider, Escape Artist, Back to Basics & Love Bug

Hey pplz... today had a rather fairly productive day... had the only lecture for the whole week and a project meeting... and tml is my presentation! pray for me if u can that everything tml will go well.. yeah!... tml realised that is one of the rare occasions that i will wear smart casual to school... like leather shoes, long sleeve shirt and jeans... hahaha... oh man.. feel so pai seh la... yeah... tml going to be a long day and i hope i can cover one set of lecture notes for microeconomics ... haiz... seems like when i study i seem to forget the things i study so fast... oh man.. really hope that when i revise it when the exam date is near... i can remember it well and do well for the paper... yeah...

Oh yah today i helped ah neh with her JS project and accompany her to hand in her project at the JS department as i know the place well and guide her with her referencing... after handing it up to her tutor called Tomoko... along the way back i saw her fren JoyceH hahaha! oh man first time see her... shes pretty .. keke...

Anyway this few weeks i am pondering something... rather philosophical.... is like a lot of ppl like to reason things... and when they do things they like to analysis it and do... nothing wrong with that.... but sometimes when ppl overdo it... when ppl decide to do things... they are full of fear... not willing to step out in faith... they like to see the reward or garuantee of success for example through reasoning.. to do things... is like i will not beleive unless i see it that kind... hence many ppl are robbed from the blessings they are going to get at the other end... talking about believing only when they see it.... i heard a story quite interesting... here it goes.... One day a teacher who dun beleive there is a God... so he made a declaration in a class... "I only beleive there is a God when i see him"... the teacher know very well God won't like dat appear in front of him and being cocky about it... one small little boy in the class took up the courage and said one thing that stumbled the teacher... he said ... "sir ... I cannot see ur brain... but i beleive there is a brain in ur head." hahaha amazing la...

Hahaha cool huh that kid? before i sign off... today ah neh ask me see her blog and ask me do a visual DNA test thingy and here it goes...

Mugxism

Finally finished mugging one round of Macroeconomics last nite today i started my microeconomics... oh man today whole day at home... when i woke up today i feel so tired and lethargic... and very unproductive... in the end... i end up playing games... oh man... so distracted... after dinner then finally push myself to study 1 set of lecture notes of microeconomics... to my realisation... i am very behind time and very lost... haiz... God help me!!! Guess tml onwards must jiayou more liaoz.... yeah to all my NUS frens out there.... dun be like me so lazy.... pls go and mug when u have the time... azaa azaa (Jiayou in korean) to all my fellow mugxist!!! anyway those who are concern about me.. yeah i feel much better now liaoz... thanks for all the encouragement yeah?.... realise after so many years... i grew stronger and stronger each time... yeah... cannot beleive i changed so much hahaha... God is amazing... anyway below are wat i study for the past few days of macroeconomics and some interesting slides...


The IS-LM-FE general equilibirum - meaning the goods market, asset market and full employment line intersects to give general equilibrium... This diagram is the key element in the whole course la... must know at my finger tips

From the intersections of IS and LM at different Price Level, the different output will will give u the aggregate demand and the Long Run Aggregate Supply is given by FE line Short Run Aggregate Supply is given by fixed price level (i.e real wage) intersect with labour demand. Same as IS-LM-FE model, AS-AD model is also importnat part of my module...

Lord of the rings as analogy to explain Reverse Causation.... Interesting....

Analogy of a cutie smiling at you to explain Misconception Theory... Hahaha darn funny la... how true is that especially in everyday life... hahaha

Thanks to these Old Fellows.... my Macro is darn tough la... anyway they are the legends of Macroeconomics. John Maynard Keynes discovered Keynesian Economics and with a famous quote "In the long run, we are all dead", John Hicks with the IS-LM-FE model, Robert Solow with one of his famous discovery Solow Residual and George Akerlof with the Business Cycle theories and child care example.
