bring it on!

I'm back in kampar again, as usual. This weekend proved to be a fruitful and exiting weekend for me. I led worship for the first time, watched Germany trashed Argentina 4 goals to nil, serve God by playing for the first and second service and of course meet my friends and my sweet b. ^^

This week will be a very challenging week for me. Mid-term tests for calculus, programming, and maybe statistics and practical assessment for data comm. I really got to work hard if i am to get good results in any of these mid-term papers. I have to do catching for data comm and calculus, its going to be a busy week for me. Lord, i really need Your help.

I'm sure God will be there for me ^^, as He was when i led worship on Saturday. Could feel he was there all the way, leading and guiding me. Just want to thank everyone for all your prayers and encouragement. Will there be a second time? Who knows? I'm just grateful i actually have the chance to lead worship. Thanks to everyone who played for me and backed me up. THANK YOU!

I really want to do well this semester and i know at times i have been slacking. So, yeah, really need your prayers people. =) As for this week, i'm sure God will bring me through and once again show me how wonderful and great He is, as usual. ^^ Bring it on mid-terms!!!

Hehe, my blogging must be feeling so happy now that i'm filling it up more. ^^ I actually feel nice about this.

Prediction on who will win the world cup:-

1) Spain

2) Germany

3) Holland

4) Uruguay (sorry lah XD!)

ILMBB!^^

bek to blogging ^^

So long have i not even touch by blog, not that i can touch it la. hehe...well, there are many things that i would like to share and i will...if i remember all of them. So be patient and let me think of what i want to share. Hmm...Let me see... for this post i would really like to share about my degree life SO FAR.

My degree life started on the 31st of May 2010 at 8.00 am. CALCULUS and APPLICATIONS. First few minutes were a piece of cake, and then it just got harder and harder. The lecturer was going on and on like there was no tomorrow. I don't know whether he forgot or what, but he didn't even give us our 5 minutes break. Sitting in the lecture seat for 2 straight hours is tiring you know, although i know standing there lecturing is also tiring la. Well, as the "bullet train" went on and as time passed, i realized i failed to keep up. Like, who can keep up running side by side with a train right?

He was skipping some stuff giving the excuse that he has to go fast cause if not he will not be able to finish the syllabus. The best excuse was his excuse of skipping those stuff. His excuse is always the same: "I'm sure you guys know this right, you've learnt it in your foundation or on your secondary school add maths". I was like...er...did i learn this? I mean like yea, maybe some stuff i didn't pay attention to during secondary school or something but you could at least run through it and not skip it totally right?

So on i went to the next class, still lost in the things that i didn't understand in the first. Next class...TEAM BUILDING and LEADERSHIP. The lecturer was kind of a nice guy. At least he is one of them who can actually speak proper pronunciation of english. ^^ Well he was nice but the first class didn't go so well, at least with me it didn't.

Things he said that made the class degrade:-

1) I'm going to change each and everyone of you and you'll be a different person by the end of this sem...confident, speak clearly with the right volume, body posture... ... ...(try me ^^ maybe its cause i'm not like others who are timid to speak in front of a crowd and stuff like dat,church certainly helped me a lot! ^^ i wouldn't mind a makeover or an improvement though)

2) I'm going to drill you all left and right,up and down (i was like yea right)

3) first assignment is due on week 3 (i was like WHAT?! that soon?!)

next class (still 31st of May)-SUN ZI"S Art of War and Business Strategies. Sounded interesting, but as it was in english and the lecturer's english was ahem...i didn't und a single thing he was talking about in the whole 2 hours of the lecture and this is my first class mind you. GOSH~~don't know how i'm going to survive 10 weeks of this. SUN ZI is suppose to be a book written bout strategies in war which also applies to business strategies in the modern age. Many people said it was nice reading the ORIGINAL chinese version than listen to the lecturer teach. As for me, i'm more comfortable with english and i'm definetely not going to read the chinese version.

The other 4 subs are Data Communication and Networking, Programming Concepts and Design, Introduction to Computer Organization and Architecture and Statistics. In summary, Programming was ok, cause i did pretty well in my programming in foundation. =) Intro to comp also ok LAH, und and keeping up so far. Statistics,well...its getting harder and the formulas i learnt in secondary school s totally different from here, its like i wasted my time =(. The worse nightmare is DATA COMM.

Interesting as it may be, its SUPER COMPLICATED. The lecturer predicted that by week 3 many would have either dropped this subject or not attend his lecture and HE WAS RIGHT. He also said something that was scary. He said:"last semester i gave the students mid term, open book, open internet, open neighbour and none of them got full marks. Finals, open book, and only 1 person got an A for this subject and about 60% passed,the others all failed." SCARY WEH. i'm liking it though some things which i learnt in week 2 i still don't know up till now (week 5). Better go look for lecturer and ask before things get worse.

Subject preview. END>>> =)
