Chapter 292: Everything in Moderation

I feel that my blog is one of those friends whom I won't find during normal days but when there's something on, I'd surely be utterly excited to share it to! I honestly hope I don't abandon this friend because I hold a special place for it in my heart.

For the past week, I've been trying to stay awake in classes, trying new sports, going to new places etc, in the hopes of not dying in the process. In spite of feeling good and productive, but the feeling slowly faded away by the end of the week. LOLOL. It was the total opposite of how I've been living college life. Last year (and maybe the first half of the year), my routine was simple: Wake up, go to class, go back to my room and sleep, wake up for dinner, relax for a bit and maybe revise. Yeah, it was mundane. But at least I had enough sleep.

The day after we got back from Raya holidays, we started playing badminton. I hadn't played for a long time and I really sucked at it. Slowly I started liking it. So all of us played for 7 days straight without resting. LOL crazy. The first few days we managed to get our asses to the study area to revise, after that all of us got really lethargic and lazy. Hahahah. On Saturday, which is supposed to be rest day, we woke up and went to Klang to eat Bak Kut Teh. Then a few days in the last week we even purposely woke up super early to eat breakfast together. So yes, I only had 5 hours, at most 6, of sleep for the past week. I'm sorry if I sound ungrateful; I'm sure most of you get barely 4 hours of sleep everyday. Sorry. Don't get me wrong, I really did have fun doing all those, but I am only human. I get tired too.

Just a few days ago, we played volleyball after class too. After that I even went for a movie. -__- From that time I was questioning myself if I went to college to study or to play lol. Now I feel really disappointed with myself. PT1 starts next Monday and I haven't really studied much and even if I did, by this time I've already forgotten everything I studied because I didn't revise. Sigh. I only have approximately 5 days left. 5 because this weekend my cousin is getting married so I reckon I wouldn't have the time or energy to revise so much.

I guess one thing I've learnt is that don't get too caught up with having fun. Everything must be in moderation. Well I guess I should've learnt how to balance my lifestyle by now. Well, it's not too late isn't it?

On a side note, ACCA released our exam results yesterday! My mom was so nervous that she came into my room at 7am sharp to ask for my results. LOL.

I woke up groggily, checked my phone and expected to receive no message. And yeah I was correct. So I went back to sleep. XD

Then my mom came in again. I told her that I haven't received it yet and proceeded to fall back asleep.

This time I got really nervous, so when my phone vibrated I shot up and checked immediately. Meh, turns out it was just my friends spamming in group chat. One of them asked us to check our emails and so I did.

WOOOOO I PASSED BABYYYYYYYY

64 for Audit and 73 for Tax. Yeah...just average. But I'm grateful. To be honest, these are the highest I've got among all the other internal exams. *hides in a corner*

I will try to do better for my ACCA papers. :)

Alright gotta catch my bus back to Sunway. Bye.

Chapter 290: Being a CAT-ACCA student

Hello. I just wanna get this off my chest for a bit. DISCLAIMER: This is merely my own understanding of the whole programme. Please don't flame me for wrong information lol. WHAT ARE CAT AND ACCA?  CAT stands for Certified Accounting Technician. Yeah, people laugh at the term "technician" but in layman terms it is just another name for Foundation in Accountancy. No idea why they used CAT though; probably because they don't want people to mess it up with Foundation in Arts? Anyways, one thing I dislike is when people ask me what I'm currently doing. When I say CAT, EVERYONE doesn't get it. So I just say "Oh I'm doing accounting." which sounds pretty weak but then it's easier than explaining the whole shit a gazillion times to different people and yet they STILL don't get it. :( ACCA stands for Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. Alright, so here's the thing. ACCA is a professional body (sort of like a club, really.

Chapter 319: Reflections

It's 12:44am and I have a lot on my mind. I feel like I haven't been able to give my 100% since the beginning of the year. I'm not entirely sure why but I guess it was because it was fast approaching one of my goals in the firm which was to get promoted to Senior Associate and subsequently tendering afterwards. The plan in my head was solid - I start applying in June, just slightly 2 weeks before the official promotion announcement, I get a call from HR after a week or so, an official interview by the managers after 2 days, and in July I was good to go. Plans always deviate, don't they? In June I find myself still in the midst of peak; whoever said that June was the start of off peak is a liar. However I also found myself avoiding to update my resume; I think a part of me still wanted to stay. I believe it was the comfort zone calling - I have good bosses, my portfolio was okay (I am taking over a job meant for an Assistant Manager), I am familiar with everything that

Chapter 320: I've not been well recently

 Not sure how to begin this post. My heart is beating really fast right now and I need to vent my feelings somewhere. I haven't been in a good mental state for a while now. I am suffering. I have been trying my best to see the good in everything and it has been exhausting. I guess I'd been dismissing my negative feelings because I feel like I should be grateful and appreciative for everything I have right now - which I am, don't get me wrong.  I'm having a difficult time relaxing properly recently. Even when I'm just chilling and watching Netflix, a sense of uneasiness just comes creeping on me; and it stays with me. I can't find anything that makes me happy anymore. I just feel so restless and on most days I feel like I've lost my sense of identity.  All the things that once make me happy have lost their ability to do so. I feel like a lifeless robot each day, just surviving and not living. Achievements aren't able to make me feel anything too. In fact
