quite an unproductive mugging session today. only managed to finish 3chapters of 201. havent even do the tutorial yet! :( siannnnzz. felt quite restless today! oh well shall work hard thru the night to make up for it! NO SLACKING OK! only random breaks to energize myself!
on a side note A levels started already! saw jc kids leaving sch aft their paper. makes me think of my own jc days. and time flies ok. IT'S 2 FREAKING YEARS AGO. ok maybe 10years later i will think that i'm so retarded to actually think that 2years is long but still! getting older already :( very sad!! cannot go back to sec/jc days even if i want to.
i still rmb how i really struggled for a levels coz it's so freaking hard and competitive. a lot of ppl say that uni is much easier than a levels but i think it depends on which point of view u r looking from??
a levels is like cramping 2years worth of info within 1 or 2 months. and a lot of concepts r quite tough and a lot of things to study! but the good thing is u get a lot a lot of help from ur teachers and past year papers and practises. can do until u go crazy. it's really mugging spree.
for uni it's more of what u learn within this one sem. they chiong finish what normally takes a year or two in jc within less than 6months and u have to rmb every shit.
but i feel that some qns that they ask r not as complex or deep as a level qns. it's more of answering generally using the same methods and application. and a lot more real life application and calculation thing (at least for econs) it is kind of easier to score or at least pass in exams as compared to the numerous U's that i received in jc.
BUT the mugging and cramping all the knowledge within 1 sem is really quite taxing. and the accumulative gpa thing is like killer. at least for jc u either score damn well or screw up for JUST THAT ONE TIME. this is continuous. u must do well everytime ok. u screw up once u have to make sure u do damn well the next time (which is quite impossible) so for 8sems in ur uni life u cant screw up any exams at all! which is so much more stressful than the 2yrs once a level. and another thing is that u dont really receive a lot of help from ur profs.
and there are not a lot of past sem practises or any kind of practise for u to do except for tutorials. even if u manage to find practises u have to search for ur own answers because it's not provided at all. which kinda sucks. no practise means u dont know what type of qns can come out and it's harder to do well for the paper. unlike in jc u can do these super thick amount of practises and feel safe that exams will have similar qns! it's so much better and secure. plus the 100000 consultations u can have with ur teachers.
that's why i think poly kids can adapt to uni much better than jc kids. i really feel that we have been spoon fed for too long. since pri sch. ok maybe not spoon fed but we received a lot of help resulting in us not being independent enough to prepare and study for uni exams.
there's really zero help unless u go search for ur own materials and go ask the profs. and some are like really quite lazy and NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. i think a lot of these profs only care abt their research rather than ur results. they dont care if u die. but of coz the freedom that u receive in uni is much much much more better than the strictness in jc. but still no self discipline will make u die.
like me suffering from the consequences of not going for lectures and tutorials. when i'm ponning like free its happy days but near to exams it's really GG. siannnn.
which brings me back to studying hard for finals! hope i can do ok.
super random lengthy post but felt that i just have to rant abt this! too sian from studying sia. haha. and also sort of miss the sch uniform days! can dont think abt what to wear. just wear the same thing everyday. now i have to go to sleep thinking of what outfit to wear tmr. and i cannot repeat the same outfit the same day of the week. like what i wear for this mon i cannot wear for next mon coz the tutorials is every week and will be the same ppl! so cannot let them see that every mon i always wear the same clothes right! hahahaha
and also kinda miss the fun days in sec sch and jc! just hanging out in sch with ur friends and talking shit to them in sch everyday! because of fixed classes and all that it's easier to make close friends due to the close approximity everyday! in uni it's so much harder to make friends! u dont even talk to ppl in ur tutorial class coz it's only an hour a week and there's no reason to talk. in seminars it's worst. i dont even know who's in my sem. and lectures all the more dont need to say! so it's so hard to find friends and make good friends in uni! :( which is kinda sad coz uni is like the really fun and highlight of ur life. the last lap of education!
that's why i'm really grateful for the close grp of friends that i made in econs! :D really enjoy their company talking abt everything! and i'm glad we always choose our mods tgt and die tgt for the mods. HAHAHAH. really love them very much!
and i'm also happy that i actually stayed hall. coz most of my uni close friends r from hall. staying tgt has brought us so much closer. and also help me know more ppl from other courses! super love my roomiessss too! i'm glad we really can click and that they r such awesome ppl :D
that's why i'm really happy for my uni years coz of this 2 grps. i dont need to know a lot of ppl and have 100000 friends in sch. i just need these ppl to make my sch life complete! although we always just stay in our own world and we r not like damn popz or what i'm really happy!
maybe the only thing i regret is not joining a cca in yr 1! but then hmm hall is like cca right? HAHAHAH. ok maybe not. shld have put myself more involved in sch activities! oh well. shall be contented with what i have.
anywayy it's time for me to go back to study aft such a long ass post. dont think anyone will bother to finish reading the one whole chunk of words that i typed! hahaha. but nvm. for future me to see :) when i will be really grateful for my uni experience.
OK BACK TO STUDYING LOIS LIM!
