Accounting nerds
In: University
27 Jun 2006 3:51 pmOut of respect for my English lecturer/tutor, and because I actually enjoyed most of her lessons, I’ve decided to rid myself of the colourless version of the textbook we’re using.
Anyone wants to buy this? Anyone knows anyone wanting this? Anyone has a lecturer not fussy with photocopied books? I’ll be selling it for a cheap-o RM25, and I bought it at RM40. =___= It’s still in relatively good condition. Should you want to purchase this book at such an unbelievably good deal - I’m willing to throw in a few consolation freebies for purchasing it from me, ie: hugs and kisses and utterances of thank yous - drop me a message, or MSN me if I know you.
Today we had our first Accounting lecture which was so amazingly dry and dreary I had to slap myself awake several times and contemplated using toothpicks on my eyelids to keep myself awake - which unfortunately failed and I dozed off for several precious minutes of the undeniably dull subject.
I mean, compare the following textbooks:
My Microeconomics (original, 2nd-hand from cousin) textbook has oh-so-pretty-ful pictures and larger fonts for easy digesting of the information received.
My colourless Accounting textbook has no pictures but text, text and more walls of texts. If you don’t yawn by the time you reach the third page, congratulate yourself for being an accounting nerd.
I don’t know if I’ll be busy or anything from now on, but if I’m not going for any exciting, heart-stopping, asthma-inducing activities, expect less interesting entries from now on. In fact, it may be that I’ve turned into one of them accounting nerds.

our education system sucked so much, that’s why I didn’t want to continue to form6 as well.. sick of learning in BM edi.

ahahaha!! now form 6 (science stream la) is in english, (except for pengajian am, but nvr study also can score A :D :D) which is far better than local universities… because after taking exam in proper english, we still need to switch to yang berhormat dwibahasa… nck nck nck…
form 6 is good if u studied in chinese school ;D tht’s the good part
thx for the hope :D but now i got one more choice… i got another option which is to study in australia coz our family friend’s willin to sponsor me :D :D :D

.. How much is that in USD? >__>
You should mail it to me. ♥
I’d read it. Probably.
Mail me other nice Malaysian things, too. D: Like uh.. mee-in-a-cup. Or you! :D You can mail me you. Though, there had best be a return address. You’ll eat all our [nonexistent] food. :[
Oink oink. Piggeh. D:

Saki: I’d guess RM25 should cost around.. USD$6.97 >_>
I’d mail you little trinkets and other nifty things but the cost of sending these items is more than the things I’m sending itself.. almost like the HS t-shirts we sent. :p
koekoe: ahhh I see >< a friend of mine don’t wanna leave home for furthering education for the exact same reason as you..
I can’t really say much since I don’t exactly own a pet.. save for my rabbit Bunny, which is more like my bro’s than mine anyway. Might take time adjusting to being without momo :/

Lol your book is hella cheap. Photocopied, nicely bound books here are like.. $10 – $20. Depending on the book.
Pah. That’s so lame. I want Malaysian trinkets. ;__;
