school so far

and so it nears the second week of school. as of now, school isn't very taxing yet, but I know it will pick up really soon, when all the labs kick in. precisely why I'm trying to make sure I understand everything that is being taught.

which is precisely why i detest profs that simply can't articulate his words well. as aaron said, it's not his accent, coz many PRC lecturers have the same accent. it's his poor articulation, and all his pauses in the midst of a sentence just serves to distract us from what he wants to teach. what's more, his lecture lasted 2.5 hrs. can you imagine, a freaking 2.5 hr long lecture with him rambling on and on? -.-

had to revise what he taught at home by myself today, using edwin's textbook. rather thankful for the group of CSP/former CSP friends i have made, like aaron, edwin, songhoe etc.. school seems much less monotonous with them around. and having aaron around for all my mods is exceptionally good, whatever i don't catch, he gets it, and vice versa. always good to have a friend around for a random module that no one has taken before, especially so when he's analytically sharp and discerning.

i find myself warming up for the challenges ahead, but not fully prepared yet. gonna need to put in the 110% in my work.

when the going gets tough, the tough gets going, right?
