the 2nd week of uni has passed. this week was the start of the full timetable...i.e. tutorials and lectures..(1st week no tutorials).
well, everything seems ok overall. remember the stats lecturer whom i mentioned abt his unprepared impromptuness? well, he has made a big improvement this week. he is so much more organised in his lectures now and makes good use of the OHP to conduct his lectures...gone are the days where i will be scratching my head and flipping the notes here and there..haha! frankly speaking, he's quite a unique lecturer in his own way..quite humourous, but 1 must be intellect enuff to understand his humour..haha!
it's only the 1st week of tutorials and both my prac econometrics and micro econ tutors already know my name...darn....too spontaneous in class liaoz...sighz...
prac econometrics tutor kept picking on me since he knew tt i swapped subjects to do the current econometrics subj and oso coz i did matrices b4...sounds funny but it's really becoz of these 2 reasons...when i say 'pick on me' doesnt mean tt he;s making fun of me..just jokes ard wif me here and there..not too bad..i try to joke back at him too..haha!
econs tutor know me coz i answered most of his questions in class. let me explain, for micron econs tut, there's no work to prepare for tut class since everything is done online. so, during tutorials, the tutor will just go thru some stuff related to the topic. so he did maths review yesterday....DIFFERENTIATION! been a long time since i did tt...but luckily i remembered some, so i ans them when no one else could remember the formula/how to solve a prob...
didnt really get to know more new classmates...gotta know some though..but oso not tt close..guess i need more time..ya...i m a shy and conservative guy anywayz...
(hehez...)
yupz, tt sort of sums up the 2nd week of uni...no ups and no downs...just a peaceful week...but 1 thing for sure, classes here are somewat diff frm the way classes r held back in malaysia. lectures r sorta informal to some extent while tutorials are quite engaging among students..ya...quite the type of classes i hope them to be..coolz
take care!
