I've always have a fear of maths, even simple mathematics. I just simply dislike it. All the plus, minus, multiplication and division are easy enough for me. But I truly truly dislike it even more when I have to do things like "Accrued", "Depreciation", "shareholders' equity" amongst the many others don't know what are enough to make my head spin. Not to mention, going thru list and list of items in what "Balance Sheet", "Income Statement" and "Cash Flow Statement". =(
But I have no choice, I got to do it now. 2 of my modules this semester are Financial Accounting and Mangerial Accounting. I have no idea what are the differences at this point in time. But all I know, my head is already spinning.
In a bid to make myself feel better, I've decided to ditch my old scientific calculator and get myself a nicer, simpler, bigger fonts calculator. Part of the reason is also because, I've got to keep reminding myself to bring the calculator to and fro work daily, which is such a chore!!!
Like over the last few days, I forgot to bring my calculator home and when I was doing revision for my accounting, gosh, it was sooooooo tough especially when all I had was the mini calculator from my Hp!
So finally, over the weekend, while Hubby and I was out after dinner, I gotten myself another calculator. My requirements for this new calculator is simple. Nice color, big fonts and must come with the "00" button. Why? Because, when I have big figures, I get so sick of pressing "0" soo many times la, not to mention hor, sometimes mis key. Either too many or too little. Best will be if the calculator comes with the "," kind to separate the "0". After looking at too many figures, I cannot tell 100000 from 10000 without the separator lei.
And I found my nice calculator in NBC, Bugis. =)
The only grouse I have is, it's not Pink. Coz they don't have. This is the closeest I can get lor.
Anyway, I'm pretty happy with this. So sweet hor, the color. Meets all my requirements. Comes with the zero separators, large fonts and "00" key! Albeit a little out of my budget... But nevertheless, I got it. I was happily using this througout Sunday while Hubby went for his class, leaving me home alone with my text, notes and calculator!
Nothing better to hit the books (especially accounting nor anything to do with calculations) with pretty stationery! =P
Bimbo, yes. But no choice. I really dislike the subject. Must tempt myself with nice, colourful stationery to study!
