Not forget to mention of the industrial dispute in VU, our results got withheld. It was some what a strike that has taken place by the university's staff. Surprisingly, it was not only VU that faced such dispute; in fact, quite a number of Australia Uni's too! Even UNSW! Wow!
Anyway, there was not much that we can do though. Though I'm anxious to know about my results, but what can be done? It's out of our control. Thank God that only the result of one of the subject a.k.a. Introduction to Marketing was withheld.
I'm pretty much satisfied with my previous semester results. Wanna know it? Hmm...not trying to show off here, but just wanna share my joy! I think this might just be the best results I got so far since I went into college!
Tadaaaaa!!!!
One(1) HD and Two(2) D
*Note: HD=High Distinction; D=Distinction
*Jumping with joy!!!*
*Hugging mummy after I saw the results*
*Woot! Woot!*
As for the Ds...As usual, I though I flunked when I saw D. But got to realize that it's not exactly what I thought, it was really relieving! The subjects are Accounting for Decision Making(ADM) and Professional Development 1(PD1).
Accounting was never my fav subject. As you might have known, I was not an accounting major before and science was my fav all this while. A sudden change might not be that bad after all. I like the fact that I'm actually find accounting pretty interesting and it's way easier to understand as compared to immunology, biochemistry and etc. Oh gosh! I can barely remember anything from Biochem now. Perhaps some structures and amino acids, that's about it I suppose. LOL. ADM was not as hard as I thought it is, my classmates can even get HD for it! It seems it's way too basic, so maybe that's why people like me also can get D. Haha.
PD1 is a full coursework subject. It's the most stressful subject throughout the whole semester because there were a lot of group discussion and as you all know, sometimes group discussion just don't lead us to the right direction. My group consist of 4 people and 3 of them are from Indonesia with only me - a Malaysian. It was rather shocking and I was pretty lost being in the group but it all went well after all. The weird thing about our group is that, most of the discussions are in Bahasa Indonesia, which I can't speak at all. My Bahasa Melayu is like awful, what 's more with the Indon language? Guess how I got through it?
::They'll speak in Indon. I'll try to understand as much as possible then i'll speak in English to give any opinions::
As time goes by, we spoke more and we're more close. All of them can speak English but I think it's a normal reflex to speak in Indon when u see your fellow friends. It's all good with me. By the way, they are all 3 years younger than me. Do the calculations and you'll know how old they are!

Guys! Thank you for a fantastic group work. Though it was stressful, but it was a true experience. All of you have great presentation skills! Keep up with it! Cheers!
As for Introduction to Marketing...it's to be confirmed. Sigh...
