CYA & CSS 2007 Interaction Day

On Monday, June 18 2007, both catholic groups and societies in Ngee Ann Polytechnic and Singapore Polytechnic had a June Interaction Programme held in Singapore Polytechnic.

It started off with mass celebrated by Father Val from Holy Cross Church in Clementi. The congregation was comfortably accommodated in the small room which it was held in.

After mass, all of us went for a worthwhile games session in the campus. Snooker tables and foosball were fun to play. Some of us learnt many foosball tactics and strategies from the SP mates. Snooker was equally fun as we had both laughters and teases during the games to break ice.

Of course, some just could not resist to show off their foosball and snooker skills and techniques. From that we learnt a lot of new things from the games and it was fruitful.

For lunch, we headed to the fastfood outlet, namely KFC and PizzaHut. It was a good way to get to know each better as fellow catholics.

Soon after lunch, we headed back for games. This time we had a longer and serious game. Both presidents were eager to challenge each other to foosball and snooker, one-on-one! Not only did we have a lot of fun, we got the chance to explore a bit of SP campus.

I can say that this interaction programme was a well-organised one as we had a good time with each other and got to know some other SP friends.

Hope that this kind of programme will be organised again to improve the relations and strengthen the bonds of both catholic groups.

Alleluia!

Common Test (2 - 7 June 2007)

Wah, common test was kinda mini obstacle man. go for a few consultations for IFA, and COST. funny, blaw tutor did not give past yr's blaw common test paper to prep for test. well, nevermind, got do memory work for blaw principles and court cases enough.

Taxation common test was really a challenging one. I think just passed Tax.
Intermediate Financial Accounting was not too bad but still a brain-racking one because of I wasn't so sure about the Statement of Changes in Equity answers.
Business Law could be said as OK. I didn't really spot the questions but those that I studied majority were tested.
Cost Accounting is said to be the least tough. Most of the MCQs should be ok. The long question was manageable.

Hope that this common test can pass or, better, score. It comprises of 20% of final assessment.

Very fortunate to have John and Gabriel as study buddies during the Common Test prep. Thank God for them!
