Gifts & Curses: a new age of people....and a new age of idiots

its day 3 of school! and NO! i'm not lovin' it!

i got a big shock of my life on day one. i heard the modules this sem were pretty tough from the 1.2 students last sem during subang, but when the AMP lecturer came into class and discussed the module, i thought to myself

"derek old man, is this what you really heard of last month?"

i kind of panicked. but anyway, lesson ended at 12 noon. so that was it for the day.

the next day.......

things were totally unheard of. the AMP lecture continued. we had 8 chapters of dung to memorise and chuck it out on the exam paper. i felt like a total dick. the lecturer was so very boring, it was almost impossible to stay awake in his class. follow up this horrible module, was another one that put people on the edge of their seats, chewing up their nails and paper. C programming = learning computer language. which was complicated, and boring, and tedious, and stupid. the good thing about it, is probably it's not examinable.

let's go back abit further. to the days before school reopened. the timetable was out and when i looked at it, the first words were like: god damn it. it's a messed up schedule and my days in ngee ann were a mess.

but, its really alot better than some others, in a way.... at least mine doesn't have a huge interval in-between lessons. while others could use the time to.... smell grass, pluck grass, smell air and all sorts.

its back to basics on wednesdays and fridays. D & T all over again. learning isometric and orthographic drawing, and drawing on the computer.

and mathematics took to another level with EM3B. but still cannot make it in university.

here's what happened just now. i went to westmall for a haircut. as some of you know, it's impossible for me to do so right now, but it's really itching on the sides and back.

i went to the hairdressers, and the said
"25 bucks"

no shit, with my hair this short, it's still 25 bucks. i said, no way. go find some grass to cut.

i went to another one nearby, and the said
"18 dollars"

i argued, and the finally said
"16 la 16 la"

the hairdresser behind me was like

man... this guy still needs a cut? he doesn't even have hair long enough to cover his pubes. but he was still ok with it. and it turned out pretty ok on my end too.... but the back is pretty nerdy.

tomorrow is IS day, so it's pretty much slack. but i have to go ngee ann earlier to patch up my notebook. some programs still not in there to do my work.

well, that's it for this period.i'll be back soon.
