Work is Piling...

Work is Piling...
It has only been one month into school... and imagine taking exams with just one month of knowledge of that subject! Argh... sheer stress... it's really pushing my mental strength to the max. The agony of trying to grasp a single topic is just mind boggling. Well.. actually not really mind boggling... its just that the lecturers here use SUPER sophisticated words.. to explain a very simple concept by just using PLAIN words. I guess that's university reality bite for you. Never had such difficulty in Poly... coz majority of the teachers were really good, clear and motivating.

Well, now i know what it means when newspapers say Singapore has got world class education system. Truly, it does... honestly, the teachers there are really fantastic, two thumbs up for them. Actually, the diploma is enough to equip us for the real world. Essentially what i have learnt there is also being taught here. Just that over here... i'm getting a DEGREE... just a piece of paper to say i've graduated from a university. It's tougher over here... becoz the teachers can be quite unapproachable... they give the "what? so simple and you don't understand" kinda look and... yea... what's their problem.. we're paying them. They can be EXTREMELY impatient too... but there are the minority who i must say are just fantastic. Very patient.. very understanding.. but.. still nothing compared to the teachers in Singapore... Singapore rules..

Well... enough about school... today i went to school for consultation on the project that my group have to do.. .and i completed my part already. My group is SUPER DUPER SLOW!!! Sad to say their from SP. I wanted it completed by today.. hence the consultation. But... i was the only one who has completed my part. So disappointed... when we went to see the teacher... i was the only one telling him abt my part... and discussing issues with him... the rest was just sitting there listening going.. "uh huh.." What a WASTE of the teacher's time and... yar.. think it just didn't started off well. I'm trying not to be too judgemental over here... but when something has to be done by a certain day... it has to be done!

My previous class still rocks... never had much trouble with them... coz what can i say.. their all capable people. Maybe abit lazy at times... but nevertheless... they always deliver.

With so much said... and so much left undone... haha... i think i better go back to hitting my books.

Prayer request: More time... less work... and.. please please pray i get a job soon. The living expenses here is really high... and the cash would come in handy.

Thanks!!!!

Love ya all... byeie!
