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
