ding dong. time for school again. this holiday is definitely a short one. unfair huh. ntu ended earlier and we are starting on the same day?! haha..oops out of point. then again, it feels amazing to be back in school with all my friends. but that is probably because it is not time for me to get stressed. school has not really started for me! haha. (i am going to get it for this) as i sat through the lecture, i cannot help but zone out occasionally. and guess what, there was a mcq quiz at the end of the lecture! goodness. the knitted frown tells all. this reminds me of john though, the exchange student from auckland U. his drive to learn simply amaze me. he may be considered slightly geeky (for the record, he has gotten a mix of Bs and As for his exchange semester in nus. well done dude.) but you can really see his passion to understand what he is studying shimmering in his eyes. while examples of those who study for excellent results are bountiful, avid learners seemed rare. he expressed that the new zealand educational system provides them with more time to learn and that is probably the crux of the matter. as we cram ourselves with the knowledge to pass the umpteen hurdles and meet the pressing deadlines for projects, loving what you read is almost non existent on most occasions. however, i definitely had fun taking the space market module last semester. the lecturer, dr cheng or affectionately known as jam jam to ms siewling was entertaining and the relevant text is fantastic! the first academic text which i enjoyed reading! the feeling of understanding what you have read and being able to refute on arguments made with regard to the concepts was great! i feel smart for the first time! wahaha. while i wish that more modules can be like this, i should perhaps, be seeing this in another angle. seeking the joy of learning might be easier than praying for interesting modules which are hard to come by. oh man, it is all in the mind. **zz zz..are you seeing what i am seeing..** i had better acquire this joy before i come back from auckland. else, the 6 modules per semester is going to suck the life out of me. AND, auckland better be good. or rather, i had better make my trip a most enjoyable one to make up for the hell i will be getting when i am back! ahahaha!!
