It's weird. The very day I chanced upon the blog, the following day I got proof that it's the ultimate truth. Something I don't wanna see just coz I'm not capable of it. How coincidental. I felt my chest constrict and the feeling of emptiness was unbearable. There's no way I could ever put myself in the exact same position. It's like what I saw, what I read, are things I wanna be able to get on down with but sadly, it's nothing I'm capable to open myself to.

Damn, do I make sense here?

Worse part is, I'm afraid this failure-to-express-myself syndrome is gonna haunt me for the rest of my life. When will I ever learn? That it's not wise to be at the receiving end of everything. Oh wait, I am always receiving tons of garbage anyway. So is that suppose to be good? Well, that's besides the point. The point is, I can't seems to make myself give enough. And this is the factor that's stopping me from moving any further ahead. Everytime I think about it, I'd launch myself into a full blown make-believe world. Either that, or I'd get all melancholy, pondering over every other possibilities. Ones that are never gonna come true.

Crap, I shouldn't be monkey-ing around right now. I'm gonna have Econs CT tomorrow man! Somehow going through the notes make me feel even more depressed than I already am. It's like a form of escapade that serves as a motivation which could only break itself into two possible outcomes. I don't wanna comprehend the bleak one. I don't think I'd be able to deal with that. And I guess, not being a tad worried over CT is kinda...worrying. Aaahhh. I don't get why is it that when it comes to me, I gotta put in tons of effort in order to see the slightest results. It's bloody unfair, don't you think so? Whatever, it's not open for discussion. Bleah.

Isn't this VERY ME. It's like distractions starts bouncing towards my direction whenever there's something much important to tend to (i.e common test). Eh no, I think I've always been caught up with everything else but school work.

I have this sudden urge to type a lot more on random issues. But it's not gonna help me. So might as well blubber about Econs. You ready?

Inflation is a sustained increase in the GPL. One of the causes for inflation is because of the shift in the AD curve to the right which depicts an increase. This is caused by expectations of higher prices or wages in future, causing households to bring forward their consumption spending. The increase in government spending or the cutting of taxes will lead to an increase in demand for goods and services. Increase in income from abroad will increase the demand for exports. An increase in money supply will cause an increase in demand directly as households and firms will have more money to spend, and indirectly by lowering the rate of interest. Inflation can also be caused by an increase in the AS or a rightward shift of the AS curve. This is resulted from a fall in the cost of production causing firms to increase their output. A fall in corporate tax will also contribute to this as this will lower cost of production and provide more incentives for entrepreneurs and firms to innovate and produce more. Technological improvement in capital will raise productivity and increase supply.

Oh great. As if I'm making much progress when all I ever do is to pick out points straight off from the notes. I've yet to internalize the anti-inflation whatever.

Hokay, so to counter demand-pull inflation, we implement the contarctionary fiscal policy. This is more focused on the government's measures to curb inflation. This will involve cutting government expenditure or increasing taxes. A rise in income and corporate taxes will lower consumption and investment, causing AD to decrease.

Ok, that's all.
