Let me recount how i studied.
It is indeed not fun when u study with only a book and memorise all the day long.
That is why i prefer studying in class with classmates and teacher than self-study with only a book.
It is a proof that environment can directly affect people for their own education.
How did i study auditing?
I tried to blend my hobbies into study.
I must be very creative enough to make self-study fun.
Firstly,i needed to read throughout the auditing book few times together with my speech.
Secondly,i challenged myself to recall what to write on the questions(Miss Lam gave us) for 1-3mins.
If cannot,i take the book and walk around my home and recite as if it is a poem.
(just like exactly the old-fashioned chinese scholar in the past in china)
(those scholars in china always walked around through the forest reciting the poems that were written on the books before they reached capital for imperial examination).
Why did i do that?If your body is very active,you can easily remember most of the content of the book very easily.
After that,i tried to challenge myself to answer the essay questions.
I managed to answer few of them.
Again,i increase my mood by singing those words as if they were song lyrics.
Whoops,i am getting better as i was able to answer a lot.
But i am still not able to get everything correct when come to 'identify the control' for each question.Especially compliance test or substantive test!
But it didn't stop me from giving.
I repeated them from Friday to Monday.
On Monday,i woke up at 5.30am and i took audit book and read straight away as i said it aloud.
It took me 1 hour and i slept again at 6.30am.
I woke up at 9.30am.I tried to answer the questions.
Not too bad,i am quite comfortable.
Why like that?
I remembered i saw a chinese movie about special police force in tv when i was young.
A pretty and sexy lady instructor asked the trainers to look at the things on the table and memorise them.
One of the trainer even boast that he could easily remember.
She said ,"Not so fast.After 5 minutes memorise,i would ask all of you to run around the field for 20 rounds.After that,try see if you can recall."
True enough,not many can remember after having 20 rounds run.
Reason?Tired and insufficient time to remember them exactly.
They were simply own by long period of idle and taxing activity.
That is why I want to remember regardless where I sleep or wake up.
I don’t intend to force myself to remember. I slowly take some minutes by minutes.
There was no rush even thought i spent some time gaming on friday and saturday.
On sunday,i didn't game as my mood was very good by the time i was able to answer most of MCQ and essay questions.
From Monday morning,9.30am...i surfed around and had a chat with Grace.
She asked me whether i studied.
OF COURSE LA!Why should i not study when there is an exam around the corner.
*doh*
She said that understanding the subject is important.
I suggested that she may not survive well if she solely depend on understanding the subject without memorising.
Nothing to say to those people who has too much ego beliving on their own methods when they suffer the hands of searching for answers during the hour of examination.
After that,i had a breakfast cum lunch.
Woot.i threw two twenty-cents coins to ask for my father whether i would do well in audit exam later.
He said that i would do well.
one front face and the another back face..WOW!that was the sign of approval.
I left home at 12.55pm.
I took my time to go to bank and deposit the cheque and then went to popular to buy blue pen.
Took MRT to Bishan.I saw Linda as we were coming out from the Bishan Mrt Station.
She was waiting for Adeline while i walked slowly.
I was stopped by a lady who request me to do survey with her.
She questioned my nationality by judging my face.
I am no stranger to it because i always asked by those people like that.
Fine with me.
i heard how Habib suffered.
I can feel him because i wrote and wrote from Friday to monday non-stop.
My right hand hurt after i stop writing.
that is why i took a long rest just now before i took the audit paper.
In the audit paper,everything is there but just a bit tricky on MCQ part.
End of the day,we have all done it.
It is time to laugh and start thinking of the next paper.
tomorrow i will design the safety-first plan for accounting paper.
I don't like to panic when i can't balance.
YOU TOO.Never panic because it gotta throw you out of concentration and cause you to make the correct answer into wrong answer(like erase the correct one and write down the wrong one)
AJA AJA!Let study happily!
One last paper and we are free.
