Financial Crisis

So everyone knows of the financial crisis that is going on and the dramatic impact its having on everyone!

Can i say it is very epic! LIKE OMG i remember just last year in economics when we were discussing about oh how great the economy is going and everything and how everything is in major boomage. Well! this year its sorta just all gone downhill, especially with the financial crisis, i can't imagine how interesting it would be to be doing economics this year for hsc! !!! wahh =.= i feel so nerdy just thinking about that hahas!

To be honest .... the financial crisis is pretty scary because it means everyone will be affected. Like last year, choosing an accounting or finance major was a MARVELOUS IDEA because there will always be jobs around but come this year when your actually doing your major, you might have a few doubts wondering if the market will ever stop fluctuating and go back to being steady. However im sure it will in time. And at the start of the year working at macquarie bank seemed totally awesome! well now that i think of it ... if i did have the job i would be wondering if i would have still kept it by now! its pretty scary.

Now everyone is blaming everyone else for the crisis but really i dont understand how it all started? one moment we were fine, australian dollar depreciating abit but next moment ohhhhh we are in a financial crisis ... the population of america is going to become homeless because all their banks have become bankrupt and no one has no money anymore because a mysterious wave of debt has swept across america. And the rest of the world will follow suit! LOL

Which is true ... you see ... without that much needed rescue package that the american government is not giving to the banks. It means banks will not loan to other banks or businesses or anything because of the fear that whoever they loan to will collapse. This means they have a shortage of funds and are unable to loan to everyday people and everyday businesses. Without much needed funds to run their business the business is unable to pay workers or their bills and thus ... equaling more unemployment and more unemployment equaling less spending and less spending equaling less production of goods and services. Also less spending meaning less importing of goods from overseas. So really everyone else gets affected because ... well lets face it americans consume a shitload of crap and we need them to import and consume our crap! but with no money how can they?
and yeah then the world ends.
So really this financial crisis if your think of it from an economic perspective is pretty scary.

However the RBA is lowering interest rates and that is all great and stuff but it really just reflects the state of our economy which is not a good one. Our australian dollar has also depreciated substantially meaning .. buying overseas goods are now back to being expensive!

And if i were a person with shares right now i'd be dying. LOL!

but the best thing you can do is not sell your shares =.= if you do your really just fueling the financial crisis and being an idiot because if everyone had just kept their shares we wouldn't be in such an awesome mass of debt! if everyone just hung in there it wouldn't be so bad. So really keep onto your shares because you know, the shares will go back up in time and im not saying instantly but they will because thats how the market is ... it can fluctuate and that was a risk you understood when buying your shares. So don't back out now and fuel our crisis! keep your shares and help it.

So yeah i was just overcome by economic boredom.

Your light is ultraviolet.

So today i went out with trishy and we watched Angus, thongs and perfect snogging. Only because we read the book during high school and was highly amused by it. And i must say the movie is just as funny! HOWEVER in a super teenage way, so at times we felt a bit stupid! And like a bunch of old noobs. Because it was about 14 year olds and they were pretty dramatic at times which was very much like omg! because we were like uhh .... your 14! STOP BEING SO DRAMATIC! LOL

Anyways then we went shopping and it was pretty fun!! because it was actually clothes i like looking at so i was very amused hOHOHOHOHOH!

I've had a very eventful, able it bludgy and full of fun week!

yesterday i went out with quan and we watched WALL-E!!!!!!!!!! OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
IT IS SUCH A GOOD MOVIEEE!! it was so funny and it had alot of meaning too ... like telling us humans to stop being lazy blobs and producing so much non degradable waste! such as plastic LMAO! Anyways it was really cute and absolutely fantastic and everyone should watch it!
i also got a wall-e toy because of the wall-e drink i bought hoho! i was so amused! ahh i get amused too easily =.= by kiddy things ... tsk annie!!

Anyways the day before that omg! went out shopping with jess! LMAO its just always with one person! i sound like im going on dates ahhahas!

So yeah we went to chatswood to shop! i know ... so far! but it was alot of fun! and we found lots of clothes that were too expensive to buy so it was only half successful i guess?
chatswood = great for window shopping! not so great for buying .. especially if your a poor uni student.

So yeah ... my break is ending in like 2 days =.= so sad! i wish i had a two week break like other people! ITS SO UNFAIRRR !!

okays

the tumble of my life!

ohkay so i just fell down my stairs in a dramatic and extremely tumble-dry style fashion.

So i was getting the sleeping bag for my dad, which he uses like a blanket for him to nap. So yeah lalalaa rushing down the stairs and OOP i was like OH SHIT LOST BALANCE =.= and in my head i was like oh great oh crap!

And yerp down i went ... tumble tumble and admist the tumbling i got caught in the giant sleeping bag so that thing was like wrapped around me so i had no idea where i was going or how much more stairs to go! SO YEAH tumble mania really! very scary! then through tumbling i saw abit of the stairs and well ... my head was facing the bottom of the stairs so yes it was like *BASHBASHBASH HERE AND THERE*. Then finally i landed at the bottom of the stairs to see my dad who was sitting there with a gaping hole of a mouth and going "OHMYGOD".

But anyways after seeing that he said i scared him so much that he was no longer sleepy. LMAO!!

Then afterwards i think i must've hit my head abit too hard because i kept laughing hysterically for the next 5 minutes and sounding abit insane. OOPH!

These stairs cause me lots of trauma!

So to date! the major stacks i've had down my stairs!

Once when i stacked it really badly that i did something to me foot, causing it to swell to about double its size and develop a shade of purple.

Then another time i stacked it face forward!!! right into the wall at the middle of the stairs and it totally scratched my glasses to the point where i needed to get new ones and also placed a dent in the wall. I also had a splitting headache for the rest of the day!! i hit my head too hard.

OOOPH!!!!!
my shoulder hurt so i just took a look at it and i have this big piece of skin just hanging off it and exposed raw flesh! GREAT ANNIE JUST GREAT! gosh! your intelligence just astounds me! can't even walk down some stairs!

anyways i've stacked it down my stairs about 10 bajillion times. Which isn't cool at all, actually kinda painful. And scary! i dont want a swollen purple foot again! NOT COOL!

On another note ....

I went to uni today and it was hideously boring and it went on till 8.

It was also rather chilly and i spent a lot of time in the computer labs wasting my sweet time. LOL!

lots of work

Because i am bored and have lots of work to do, i will blog. Just to waste time i shouldn't be wasting.

Anyways.

So yes today tonight seems to like to talk on and on about this whole adopt a pensioner scheme they have and how the pension payment they get is far too less to live off.

I completely disagree!! they get around $270 a week!!! okay and considering they are pensioners they probably already own their own home but even if they didn't they would get extra rental payments from the government anyways!
And the fact is you aren't gonna spent $200 bucks on groceries in a week.
I'd say u'd spent about $50 on groceries? okay 50-80. So after that you still got about $200! LIKE HELLO? and okay lets say you drive a granny car. Now petrol a week would also be around $50. So adding all that up you would still have about $150 left! and look the pensioners were complaining about not being able to go out and always cooped up at home living the poor life. Honestly! where does your money go? hello! and i understand theres bills to pay at the end of the month and such but cmon if you save about $20-25 a week you can have that covered at the end of the month too! so really in my head i say quit whining and complaining about how less money you get from the pension because i just believe its more than enough. And if you can't survive off it maybe get your priorities straight and stop going to bingo so much or something! Seriously there was people on there saying ohh i have no monies to put food on the table SERIOUSLY WHAT THE HECK? whats the first thing your gonna spend your money on? food obviously .. you need that to survive! SO I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW YOU CAN NOT HAVE MONEY FOR FOOD! WHERE DOES YOUR $270 GO EACH WEEK? are u digesting it? or maybe they are all just addicted to crack LOL!

Anyways really people just need to budget.

I had something else to blog about but i completely forgot.

Work is so hot and humid because i dont think we have aircon? so the inside is pretty much hotter than the outside. Actually same temperature if it weren't for the windyness of outside really.

Mid sem break is coming and its making me slack off from uni work. So really im like laaa laaa
*watches movies and dramas and anything else she can watch so as to not do any work*.

okay whatever i can't remember now and forcing myself to remember is like going backwards.

coookiess!

Today was dragged out to the city by jess because she baked some cookies for me that spells my name.
However when i got them they were sorta just a mooshy bunch of has been letters.

So yeah in the morning ... we had a power outage????? like what? and we had one last night aswell?? SO WEIRD! so it totally killed my tv viewing .. and last night i was like :O OMG!!! because it was such a sunny day and there was no natural disaster happening outside so the fact there was a blackout was just weird.

And this mornings one i went out about 30mins after the blackout and i found that it the traffic lights had no power either! so it was like mayhem!! it was so scary! cars all going at the same time .... i was scared an accident was going to happen or something! Anyways then the power went back on and i was like *phewphew*

Yerp so went to city ... met with jess .. who was wearing all purple with some hideous purple stockings! OH GOD! i wanted to disown her as a friend ... they were scary! So yerp after getting over the hideousness of her stockings we went to menya to eat. And i didn't end up eating because i wasn't too hungry however jess despite being a pig, she still fed me LOL her miso soup! HAHAHA and some of her rice and eel thing? yeah. Eels are scary.

Yerp then after that we headed to UTS library and jess went to look for her books whilst i studied.

After that went to meet up with mel and we were meant to meet with kylie too but noo!! she dogged us!!! to meet with her bf!! =.= so we were like fine kylie!!  finneee
LMAO!

Anyways then we walked around and found manal and this guy which ... i never got the name of :O!! and he was buying a suit and omg so funny! he tried on a black suit then the lady showed a nice stripey brown suit and he was like =O "OHHHHHH" LMAO it was soooo hilarious!! and yeah he tried it on and got it ... woopee for him! LOL it was very entertaining for us too!

Then we went to cotton on and jess bought a whole bunch of clothes and i bought one and mel bought none ... LOL! yerpp .... then after that i went home.

And on the train i saw quan and he got himself a lovely haircut! and yeah its all asian and cool style! HOHO! awesome!!! but they didn't cut the back so the second it grows ... he's gonna have this mullet ... =.= eww mullet LMAO!!

One hectic week later and annie is still breathing!

HURRAH FOR MY SURVIVAL OF THE PAST WEEK
=D
CHEESE EVERYBODY!

So yes last week was some serious hectic business right there!

And im pleased to say today marks the end of it! i've handed in that hideous 3000 word essay which hopefully i did well in, i mean i spent weeks on that darn thing! And i feel like i've covered all things possible, so lets just hope i did. =D and the lovely trishy and hodo also helped me with it! by reading it over and correcting my stupidity! wooots!

Anyways this week is much calmer but i still have 2 quizzes to do, actually i have 2 quizzes to do every single week! pretty annoying to tell the truth but ohwell. Then i've got the participation journal to write which is also a weekly thing!! its like a lame reflective essay a week =.= retardation. Hmm what else ... the usual homework questions yerp yerp thats not too bad i guess. Then ... oh gotta do law homework =.= oh im such a failure at law! its so hard! WHYY *cries* LOl! okay im not really crying. but yeah!

Moving on from uni!

So yesterday went out with quan and we ate at pepper lunch!!!

He got salmon whilst i got curry chicken and its on these hot plates. So you get this plonk of rice (okay plonk is a bad description, makes it sound unappealing.... lets say a pretty upside down bowl of rice) and inside the rice is a flavoured butter o_O? and around ur rice is ur pieces of meat. Anyways theres like this paper thing wrapped around the hot plate to stop not so intelligent people from burning themselves ... *ahem* quan. anyways! On the paper it says to mix your food fast fast!!! the waiter also tells you to mix quickly before the hot plate cools down ... but yeah quan must've seriously failed at mixing because when the waiter came with my curry chicken food thing, he looked at quans one and was like uhh and then he gave me a mini tutorial on how to mix and basically half mixed mine for me! MUAHAHHA!! so i got some awesome flavoured rice and chicken! lucky me!

Then i was absolutely bloated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! god! i was bursting ... at the seams! on my stomach ... o_O? And we bought cake beforehand at 85 degrees aswell! So we decided to head for uts tower and we went to one of the upper levels and saw the awesome view and ate our lovely cakes =D YAY! Seriously the view is quite :O phenomenal ... however the windows were a bit dirty so the city looked like it was polluted by black specks of dried rain ... yes.

Also the uts tower elevators are really scary! its so dark inside with very minimal lighting, theres only lighting on the sides so none in the middle so it was quite eerie and scary. It just brought back memories of the grudge! like i could imagine her appearing out of the floor of the elevator or something my gosh.

Yerp then after that we went to catch the train =D YAY LMAO

Now what did i do today?

i went to uni and i went to a lecture which had about 5 people in it! seriously this giant lecture room designed to fit about 200 people had 5 people in it and the lecturer was like =.="" and she stood around waiting for people to turn up .... but obviously everyone was elsewhere hurriedly doing their essays lol!

The tutorial was not the same oh no, everyone was there! to hand in their essays ahaha!

Then we had to go through the homework and no one had done it!!! i had done it ... but i wasn't prepared to shout to the world about how i had done my homework and be stuck as the only person answering all the questions so yeah i was just like ....  hmm *keeps quiet* LOL!

Anyways yerp then after that i went home ... wooo! jolly home!

I worked on sunday and it wasn't too bad... actually i was hoping it was abit more busier but yeah it was alright i guess. I love being productive! WOO!!

Okay
