Time to Hit The Road!


It has been real looooooong since I update my blog. My life has been really busy and ACCA is driving me nuts! Haha!

Well, I have a 2 weeks break before next sem starts when I have to face ACCA again. So, I need to fully utilize it before it ended within a blink of eye!

I have a wish ,a wish to study in UK for my final semester.And, if that really happens, I will travel to Europe as a bag packer with my camera along with me for sure!Capturing memorable moments and to look at the other part of the world before I no longer have the ability to do so.

Well, a lot of people must be thinking, " Are you going to travel alone? Is very dangerous for a girl to bag pack alone.'' And yes, I will travel alone ''partially'' this round for my domestic trip. Guess who'll be my partner? Haha, you'll just have to wait for my photos...

I use to hate travelling alone as it will make you feel lonely and it wouldn't be enjoyable as travelling with your friends.

However, as times go by, I notice having friends who has different personality to travel along really limits your freedom. I remembered when I used to be in high school, whenever I organised a trip I'll have to take care of everyone in my team and I lose the fun of travelling. It will be different to have someone who is passionate about travelling and never complain about getting tired, a very understanding and flexible partner to travel with you. And I hope to find such a friend in the future.

So, to fulfill my dream to be a bag packer, I need PRACTICE! So, I decided to take this holiday as an opportunity to travel on my own!This idea actually came across my mind when I was in my bathroom doing some business...haha...
Wohhoooo! Well, wanna know my journey, take a look down the map.


So, my plan is as follow:
20th June till 22nd June - Alor Setar, Kedah
22nd June till 23th June - Kulim
24th June till 25th June - Setiawan, Perak
25th June till 26th June - Selangor
27th June till 29th June - Cameron Highland, Pahang
30th June - Home sweet Home, Melaka.

I guess that's about it. Looking forward for a great journey! And of course, I'm bringing my dear, Canon 500D with me along. His there to capture those sweet and lovely memories in my life...

Alryt everyone, ADIOS! Have a great holiday as well!

A little better understanding in Marginal Revenue and Total Revenue.

Revenue and Demand

The demand curve is a tremendously useful illustration for those who can read it. We have seen that the downward slope tells us that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity. One can also view the demand curve as separating a region in which sellers can operate from a region forbidden to them. But there is more, especially when one considers what an area on the graph represents.

If people will buy 100 units of a product when its price is $10.00, as the picture below illustrates, total revenue for sellers will be $1000. Simple geometry tells us that the area of the rectangle formed under the demand curve in the picture is found by multiplying the height of the rectangle by its width. Because the height is price and the width is quantity, and since price multiplied by quantity is total revenue, the area is total revenue. The fact that area on supply and demand graphs measures total revenue (or total expenditure by buyers, which is the same thing from another viewpoint) is a key idea used repeatedly in microeconomics.

Total Revenue is area under demand curve

From the demand curve, we can obtain total revenue. From total revenue, we can obtain another key concept: marginal revenue. Marginal revenue is the additional revenue added by an additional unit of output, or in terms of a formula:

Marginal Revenue = (Change in total revenue) divided by (Change in sales)

According to the picture, people will not buy more than 100 units at a price of $10.00. To sell more, price must drop. Suppose that to sell the 101st unit, the price must drop to $9.95. What will the marginal revenue of the 101st unit be? Or, in other words, by how much will total revenue increase when the 101st unit is sold?

There is a temptation to answer this question by replying, "$9.95." A little arithmetic shows that this answer is incorrect. Total revenue when 100 are sold is $1000. When 101 are sold, total revenue is (101) x ($9.95) = $1004.95. The marginal revenue of the 101st unit is only $4.95.

To see why the marginal revenue is less than price, one must understand the importance of the downward-sloping demand curve. To sell another unit, sellers must lower price on all units. They received an extra $9.95 for the 101st unit, but they lost $.05 on the 100 that they were previously selling. So the net increase in revenue was the $9.95 minus the $5.00, or $4.95.

There is a another way to see why marginal revenue will be less than price when a demand curve slopes downward. Price is average revenue. If the firm sells 100 for $10.00, the average revenue for each unit is $10.00. But as sellers sell more, the average revenue (or price) drops, and this can only happen if the marginal revenue is below price, pulling the average down.

The reasoning of why marginal will be below average if average is dropping can perhaps be better seen in another example. Suppose that the average age of 20 people in a room is 25 years, and that another person enters the room. If the average age of the people rises as a result, the extra person must be older than 25. If the average age drops, the extra person must be younger than 25. If the added person is exactly 25, then the average age will not change. Whenever an average is rising, its marginal must be above the average, and whenever an average is falling, its marginal must be below the average.

If one knows marginal revenue, one can tell what happens to total revenue if sales change. If selling another unit increases total revenue, the marginal revenue must be greater than zero. If marginal revenue is less than zero, then selling another unit takes away from total revenue. If marginal revenue is zero, than selling another does not change total revenue. This relationship exists because marginal revenue measures the slope of the total revenue curve.

MR is slope of TR

The picture above illustrates the relationship between total revenue and marginal revenue. The total revenue curve will be zero when nothing is sold and zero again when a great deal is sold at a zero price. Thus, it has the shape of an inverted U. The slope of any curve is defined as the rise over the run. The rise for the total revenue curve is the change in total revenue, and the run is the change in output. Therefore,

Slope of Total Revenue Curve = (Change in total revenue) / (Change in amount sold)

But this definition of slope is identical to the definition of marginal revenue, which demonstrates that marginal revenue is the slope of the total revenue curve.

『爱与不爱』

这首歌的歌词描述了现实生活中的感情故事…有些人爱得很甜蜜,有些人爱得很痛苦的…
最重要的是珍惜现在你身边的伴侣,不可以轻易放弃

“说好的承诺,就一起实现,做不到就不要许下诺言”

也许你会说,爱情是场追逐的游戏
爱容易,分容易…
爱越深,伤越深
或许我想说,爱情是场成长的旅程
就像歌词里的一句 『故事走到最后 希望你更好过 请你忘了 曾经经有我 』
不是拥有
只要他快乐

『爱与不爱』
爱,就在你手中
祝福大家幸福快乐


http://thomasjack.pixnet.net/blog/post/2641749

I love this song, and the meaning behind it. I hope you'll enjoy as much as I do.

悄悄站在门外,
静静望着你发呆,
你闪烁的双眼...
看着一片海笑起来,
从来不对你说明白,
害怕你会被伤害...
也许我不应该,
站在这门外,
所以我们才默默分开...
当爱与不爱一样让人心痛,
我们都无话可说,
你现在的快乐,
不是因为我,
我很难过..
.
当爱与不爱一样让人心痛,
那就松开我的手,
故事走到最后,
期望你更好过,
请你忘了,
曾经有过...
当爱与不爱一样让人心痛,
我们都无话可说,
你现在的快乐,
不是因为我,
我很难过...
当爱与不爱一样让人心痛,
那就松开我的手,
故事走到最后,
期望你更好过,
请你忘了,
曾经有过...

After Exam Celebration at Yuen!



l





* I just notice Shen appears in most of my photos.... haha...

I have always wanted to try out Yuen Steamboat Buffet ever since I moved in to Sunway. Someone did promise to bring me there but... Anyway, we, good friends decided to go makan kao kao at Yuen after exam stress!

Apparently and obviously, Chin Shen, the prawn killer really enjoyed her seafood a LOT! She's so passionate towards prawns(just look at her pic)!

I'd always heard of the rumors people pushing people just to grab the almighty famous Yuen Chicken Wings! Me, JY and Daniel were the ones responsible for the wings! It wasn't as dramatic as the rumours, just tat people really get greedy over the wings.Well, It really does taste good!

Kylie and me, (u noe la, the makan duo) finally had the chance to eat KAO KAO ever since our last buffet at Shogun. She cant stop using the word " Si Beh Ho Chiak!" to describe the food there. Haiz, typical melaccan, just like me. Hahahahahaha.

Jian Yuan got his TUMMY back! months of hard work exercising at gym just fade away for him after this buffet. Kesian him...

Guess wat, our F4 guys apparently have an appetite for 8 persons! Lawrance and Kah Soon can't stop eating and the best thing is they are not getting any tummy like JY! They beat out the rest of us!

A journey back to the Pass. Sweet Memories.




Was looking back at my photos in Facebook. I saw this one photo and all the sweet memories just came pouring in.

I remember I meet Chin Shen on orientation day. Is like fated that we'll be good friends. We were allocated to the same class. We meet again in our very first class in Sunway and I remember we both sit on the first row in class. We started talking and oh my god we both talk until as though we have known each other for years. Since then onwards, she have become one of my best friend ever.


Up next is our Tai Ka Che!Kylie Chin! I remember the first time I saw her I thought she was English Ad, u noe la, very high class type... But then guess what break the ice between us??? Is quite predictable! FOOD~~~ Yeap, we both are food maniac! Then after since whenever we talk about food, both of us were like ah sam who know each other very long... Remeber AFA??? Wakakaka... abolished liao~~~


Of course I get to know JY by his slogan " We are from Klang Valley!!!!" Who will forget that??? Then after one or two days, he initiated to get to know Chin Shen. My first impression for this guy is " Gosh, a flirter, I dun like him.He so chuan!!!" Wakakakakakaka.... but who will ever know this guy is now perhaps the only guy who know most of my secret!!! I started to have good impression on him when I have emergency!!! Girls emergency, comes once every month. That time I was in Pyramid, he was the one who bring me with Kylie accompanying to Watson to buy "Roti". Since then onward, things just get better...

This post is specially dedicated to them.Thanks for being my Friend!

Love,
Li Ting
