Mid Week Post

Yea finally the end of Wednesday. Day started with 4 hours consecutive lectures. Differential equations in MA, followed by even more differential equations in CN. Yawnz maximum. Haha. Oh yanshan came to crash the 2116 lecture too. Haha. Anyway I really dread Wed as it's the only full day of the week (only because of an 'awesome' 5 hours of break in the afternoon. Anyway today's 5 hours was quite well spent though. Haha. Lunch, work, bum around, crash lecture. I crashed CM1502! No lah actually I wasn't even listening. I was busy doing my 2116 tutorials. LOL. Haha. But today turned out much more fun than I expected.. LOL. Anyway it's week 2 and yea, I finally got a taste of what I will be experiencing in the semester to come.

The module that I'm really enjoy now is CN2125 Heat and Mass Transfer. It's super mathematical in nature but that's exactly what I like. And the Prof Wang is really good, especially during tutorials. Really enjoyed the module thus far. As for CN3124 Particle Technology, I don't really know what I'm studying. Haha. Plus the lecturer is... ok you get it. CN2116 Chemical Kinetics is proving to be quite a challenge. The concepts seem to A-Level-ish. Except that Prof Lee removes all possible assumptions and everything goes haywire! Tutorials are deceiving. Looks so fundamental but reality slaps you in the face when you see the solutions. So simple, so elegant, so mind-blowing. Really makes me feel like I probably failed my Physical Chem back in JC. Haha. But I feel damn shiok when I can actually solve something. Haha. LOL. MA is boring. Coz it's absolutely dry and laborious. MLE is pretty easy since it's just JC chemistry. Haven't started my CN2108 lab yet. But I've heard really differing views about lab from seniors thus far. So I shall see this Monday when I have my first lab session before commenting about it. But yea, I'm actually quite glad I didn't overload more this semester. I can feel the difficulty level rising exponentially as the weeks past. Hope that I can catch up before everything starts to pile up!

Oh and need to buy my new year stuff soon before my mum starts to nag! Haha. As for now, time to make up for the lost sleep. =D
