school has started!! it was kinda fun at first until all the work and projects kept piling up like waste generated at the incineration plants.. in addition to that, i've got a professor whom i don't understand what he's saying.. well, i can get his 'kiwi' new zealand accent as i've watched soccer and rugby matches whose commentaries were also spoken like how he was speaking.. however, i just don't understand what is he teaching..
i know he's knowleageable, i mean VERY knowleagable and he knows almost everything foodie under the sun.. he's quite a nice and funny lecturer but i guess i can't get used to the style how caucasians give their lectures.. too used to lecturers in singapore who'll go with the slides and give tips, etc.. time to change a mindset and embrace a new method for learning.. problem based learning which inculcates thinking.. hope i'll get used to this new type of teaching method from overseas..
last week was hell for me.. after not studying for so long.. 24 hours never seems to be enough.. sometimes i wonder if i'm just stupid or too dumb to understand the work.. i know these coming 2 years would not be a easy one.. but i shall perservere on.. i'm seeing some bit of improvement though work is still piling up after 1 week of school..
thanks to BBF, yeting and also Jen for listening to my rants and my craps about school.. need to release the energy some way or another if not my body will explode like some processing system due to unreleased pressure.. and i'm so starting to write, speak and think like a technical person.. that's like so 'technologist'.. =/
to pull me through lessons, i will think about how sucky army life was and now i'm so fortunate to be in class, to do what i want although that's plenty of unfinished work.. looking at the big picture now, getting a degree is so different from poly days.. TOTALLY different!!
been living like a hermit for the past week.. stayed at home most of the time to study and do reports.. i really don't want to turn into a geek whose life revolves around school and work.. so save me by asking me out to eat, play, etc.. although i might not go due to the overload of work but it will really make my day by just a simple gesture of asking.. =)
other than that, i would ask myself what motivates me?? then i would start to think of my parents toiling to put me through school, the quite high expectations from my teachers and various shi-fus from my previous work place, matt who was my role model whom i'm always trying to reach or even try to surpass him though he still seems so far away from my grasp.. and lastly, not forgetting
YOU.. =)
