2nd week

Captain's log stardate 1337-whatever.

We are. One week out in the. University mission.



AWWW enough with the Star trek talk SAM!!!!!!

University of first week was fun.(well 3/4 fun). The lessons are not the usual "sit and take notes" sessions. They are more like discussion groups where the teacher would constantly ask questions and we are required to answer and that is when the teacher will give us his/her own opinion. It is a style of teaching that makes me feel very comfortable. The professors are no longer portrayed as "the godlike dispenser of your results and fountain of all knowledge". Such discussion sessions help me remember that professors are human too.

I've always preferred this sort of learning anyway. Very engaging, very dynamic.

Especially since im studying communications and Sociology, i definitely have a lot to say.

taking 4 modules. Communications, Sociology, Advanced Reading and Writing and...........Maths.

Yes Maths. My bane since birth, My pain since primary school. Aside from chinese.(OH YA, i got exempted from chinese after passing the test. lol hahahahahahahahahh)
But things are looking up. Thanks to my bro, I am grasping the basics of algebra and quadratic stuff. Now just a matter of doing more and recognizing the patterns and which formula to use when.
Maybe i might even call on my other bro(technically not my biological bro but i consider him a brother anyway. Yes u know who you are if you read this.) to help me soon since my current math genius bro got exams.


People? My class people? Very very nice bunch. A number of us get mixed around different modules so basically i have a group of only 15 that take the same 4 modules as me. Once again, the pattern of my life. Since leaving the all boys Maris Stella, the common ratio of gender in my post secondary classes(including first 3 months in an JC) as never been less than 1:4 of guys:gals.
A sad thing is i can't seem to get along with the 3 other guys. Our personalities and interests just that different. And neither can i get along with the poly grads.
I find myself hanging around a group of JC grad gals most of the time. Not that im complaining. In fact, maybe this is proof afterall that i was meant for JC in the first place. OH well, whats past is past.

Now to make the most of my present.
