yawns~ streches~

My first exam paper starts tomorrow. haiz. Headache.

Since I am revising my econ paper, i should blog about my econ tutor.

Seriously, after a term of tutorial with her, i still can't remember her name.

This china tutor of mine, has difficulties in pronouncing some words, eg

words - her pronounciation

bats - butts
labour - neighbour
key chains - kitchen
equilibrium - act-cool-lee-brain
melvin - muffin
profit - perfect

the best is the word "signal", she will pronounce it as "sea-ga-no" with a japense essence.

I am not laughing at her, because until now, i still cannot pronounce some word properly, like "prawn".

Anyway, its a joy to attend her lesson, because she has a weird sense of logic that can make you laugh non-stop.

Eg.
Tutorial quesion : A 20% increase in the price of a can of soft drink may actually increase the seller's revenue, why is it so?

Her answer was : Soft drink doens't cause much, a 20% increase may only be 20 cents in real life. Besides that, Soft drink has many alternatives, if i don't drink soft drink, i can still drink "pepsi" and 'coca-cola"!


faint ! -____-
Apparently, she thinks that pepsi and coca cola are not consdier as soft drink lah :P
