International Finance (IF) presentation

Did my one and only formal presentation for the whole of Year 3, which is the International Finance module, under the supervision of Helen Riley. Grouped together with Edward Saw, Fer Lynn and also George Khoh, with 3 out of 4 of the group members being UWE's greatest procrastinators. (Note: Will not name who you all are, you guys should be aware =P. And yes that includes me)

Presentation was on the 14th of January, 9.30am to 10.00am. And when did we start our work? On a Saturday, the 12th of January. Yes, that's just 2 days before the dateline but what can I say? We work well under pressure, or shall I just put it as constructive stress.

Managed to scratch it off would be an understatement I'd say, well that was the initial thoughts before we went into the room 4B020 and presented and recorded by a video camera which was stored on VHS video tapes. Yep, you've heard me right. VHS Video Tapes. LoL. Which has been already phased out in Malaysia, but its still quite popular over here in Western countries.

The shock came after Helen asked whether we were sharing the same marks for each group members, in which after that came the marks. Stunned, amazed, shocked. Some of the words that were running in our minds after she announced the mark, a whooping 76% out of 100% (yeah yeah. though it constitutes only 10 marks out of the assignment's full mark of 50 marks, still is an achievement right?)

I think the camwhoring disease is slowly spreading, don't know why after we were talking with Fer Lynn about taking picture of our one and only time wearing formal at UWE in UK, both Ed and me went back to our own rooms and camwhored. LoL. And it turned out pretty nice too, so am just going to share two pictures at the end.

p/s: Going to get the other 2 pics from Fer Lynn and George Khoh. Be patient at the moment.

Quote our lecturer: "Apparently Fer Lynn's holding a piece of paper, for those who haven't seen a piece of paper before"

Working last minute is akin to being run over by a high-speed train, as George had demonstrated
