the last for the year..

after he announced for everyone to put down our pencils, I was watching my biology prof pace up and down the exam hall today.. i knew that meant the last paper for the year.. the last that meant.. it was great.. believe me it was a sense of relief and that freedom awaits behind those doors.. but i couldn't say i dreaded every single moment of studying.. and its perhaps one of the semesters i felt like i've learnt something out of the courses.. and i might juz miss some of the modules..

i voted for this gen bio prof as the best lecturer.. and if i forgot to mention.. he's highly amusing and entertaining.. prob one of the most inspirational and fun loving lecturers i have ever had.. makes ecology and systematics, which somehow cannot be imagined as interesting, interesting.. and somehow linking everything to love.. flowers, symbiosis and whatever not.. haha while i don't see the link sometimes, what i do see is his love for the subject.. and i think it's prob contagious.. i realise my own love for biology and science.. 2 days of intensive studying usually gets me exhausted and annoyed at the end.. but i realise i am amazed by the works and wonders of science.. espeically how dna so intelligently codes for life.. and dna figureprinting.. ok maybe that wasn't such a hidden potential i realised so recently, considering that i once wanted to do forensic science minus the dead bodies.. haha..

well i guess i was slightly guilty after voting for my bio lecturer coz that meant i couldn't give my apb lecturer the same credit.. but i think he didn't actually deserve less.. one of the most rewarding of all business modules is perhaps apb.. businesses and their environments in different countries across asia.. we practically become budding economist readers and professionals on the different economies haha.. and the reasons behind the progress of different countries which may not be that known to layman.. keeps us thinking all the time.. and yet no need to do lots of work.. juz gotta think a lot that's all.. ok gotta admit that studying was a chore coz we were all slacking away considering the less work load.. but the more u study the more u realise the useful insights..

and of course.. asian history.. well i've always loved history.. reading it not so much studying for it.. understanding it not so much going for the exam that i was so annoyed after.. haha but i've definitely learned something out of it.. and it was often a supplement to apb and vice versa..

interestingly i realised that i do not find my other modules, which are both higher level biz modules, that useful after all.. it keeps me thinking whether i'm actually studying the right thing after all.. what's always so exciting in school is the cross faculty modules for me.. haha maybe i should have studied forensic science.. haha or maybe it's juz overdose of detective shows which i enjoy the most.. oh well..

meanwhile.. enjoy before work starts next week.. i love my planning.. pacing seems to me going juz right :)
