situation vacant

knew it! i'm in the totally wrong profession!

Your Dominant Intelligence is Spatial Intelligence


You've got a good sense of space and how the world around you looks. You can close your eyes and "see" images. You have an innate artistic talent and an eye for color and shapes. You are also a natural designer. Since you think in pictures, visual aids and demonstartions help you learn best. You would make a good navigator, sculptor, visual artist, inventor, architect, interior designer, or engineer.


iBought iT!

i have surrendered to the forces of Coolness and have purchased a mac! :)

an iBook G4, to be exact.

been itching to make the purchase for a long time, and the sight of the promotion bundling in an AirPort Express sealed the deal.

also obtained a USB-powered massage device which came as an 'xmas free gift' courtesy of the shop.

actually, TWO USB-powered massagers (another 'xmas free gift' since i decided to also purchase AppleCare).

so, if anyone wants the use of some massage devices.. (they look like a cross between shower heads and lotus seed-pods).. well, you know who to look for.

it figures

after 60 hours of eating, sleeping and breathing financial statement analyses, all i have to say is..

.. boy am i GLAD i'm not an accountant! :P

there was much progress, considering that we took four gruelling, tiring, excruciating, [insert similar adjectives] days to complete 95% of a project most other groups took weeks to do so. (though after a fresh look through the report over this weekend, i wouldn't be surprised if we'll have to restate the said figure to a lower value!)

whatever happens, two things are certain for now:

- it's scary that at by the end of the course, i may start talking like a lawyer and an accountant all in one. (though i can't guarantee i will be able to cook your books AND make it legal..)
- i'll be counting sheep in PE ratios of 4 decimal places tonight.
- at the end of this, we'll all be really good CPAs*.
