Economics : Where the heck did I go wrong?

So, I've been trying to revise microeconomics. It's a fun subject, that's for sure. But despite having studied it extensively during my A Level years, I somehow find the market structure concepts rather perplexing now. I guess I can still recall stuffs like economic profits, short run losses and all the graphs. But linking multiple economic issues together to reach a sensible conclusion seems to be quite a difficult task for me now. And they say everything during A Level should be harder than the syllabus taught during your degree's first year!

Oh well, no use complaining about all this. I guess I'll need to redouble my effort.

Come to think of it, maybe I'll have to make that triple. The text may be English, but I'm looking at all the issues and facts as if they were in Greek. Doesn't help my case that I tend to be exhausted to the utmost when my microeconomics lecture starts. The time slot of 2-4 PM is definitely not conducive to the study of such a heavy subject. It's probably a bit too late for them to rearrange the whole timetable, but here's hoping that future students won't have to go through the same thing. Microeconomics is supposed to be a subject that most business students should enjoy!

Wooooooooo

Welp, I realize I'm really, really late to the blogging scene. The kind of late that makes me feel Paleolithic, even. But I guess, you know, the usual cliches apply : Better late than never and there's always the first time for everything. I think this will help me maintain my sanity for quite a bit by allowing me to pen down my thoughts. Here's hoping such 'thoughts' won't merely be emo complaints about life, though.
