Bad Weekend of Tutorial Catching Up

This weekend is mainly learning what I should have learnt for the past few weeks for Stats. Doing the tutorials I missed as well. Anyway, I flunk my Stats Quiz 2. Thus the added effort is called for. Still, I am not really confident for regression and some of the later parts of the module. Hopefully I'll know them in due time. Well, I still skipped Accounting Tutorial 12 in the end, less Question 4.

For that, I missed the Qing Ming Festival. Felt bad coz I think it is quite important to go to sao mu, and I think I had never went to before. Or maybe once. I forgot.

One interesting thing happened though, on my way home on a cab today, the taxi driver was super chatty. Talked non-stop throughout the entire journey. About how money is hard to earn, helping people, and eventually going into his main topic of Buddhism. This is one of the very few times when a Buddhist tried to preach his beliefs to me. I'm a free-thinker, and I'll be, always. Main reason is that I think believing in myself is enough, and that I am lazy to learn and go into details for each of the many religions that are around me :)

In the end, he was kind enough to say pardon him for talking too much, and well he didn't explicitly try to get me into Buddhism too. Oh, and he has a very strong kind of accent when talking (in Mandarin). He mentioned that he lived in Taiwan for really long, so I guess he got the strange accent there. That made me go "huh" a lot of times initially, but after a while, I just pretended that I understand and go "mm" or nod my head. Its all acting to make him feel better that I am "listening" to him.

Tomorrow's a really long day. Hope it'll be peaceful and enjoyable.
