Philo sem

Hi readers, it has been months for not updating due to busy life with club activities.
This semester is really a unique one for me. I'm taking Anthropology, Philosophy, Macroeconomics, Retailing, and stupid Moral subject. I really like Philosophy much! Next is Anthropology. Both these lecturers really teach me but they are tough lecturers too.

Let's talk about my favorite lecturer- Mr. Eric who is a funny guy whic most students dislike. You know why? It's because he marks and deducts students' grammar mistakes. At first, you won't think he's linean but you will find out he's really willing to help students but just in different ways. His way prepares us in a harsh society next time. Tell you. I'm really happy to score the highest in my Test 1(bring-home test), 41/50. 2 marks were deducted by him because of funny reasons. For me, I wouldn't feel angry but just funny. He deducted 1 mark because I didn't follow the format he asked us to follow. Without knowing why and how, fonts in last page are Times New Roman,size 11 instead of size 12. Who on earth would figure out this? Haha..He showed me the difference. Swt -.-
Next, another is also my careless mistake which I didn't include some required part.
Being lecturer by him makes me feel like I'm really experiencing university life. For bring-home Test 1, we were asked to play a game and answered question. In test 2, we needed to listen 2 hrs debating on the topic: Does God exist? Haha..It's really challenging to hear to native English debaters.
In class, we were shown with videos. And, don't try to be funny. These videos would come out in exams. Wall-E did come out in my mid-term. haha..
I hope to have more classes of him. I hope I won't disappoint him like in my mid-term which scores only 33/50.

Next is my Antropology lecturer who will look strict but actually same as Mr. Eric. She's good yet harsh. =) First in-class tutorial question, I was being lectured by her harshly in front of the whole class. She kept on asking me to think why and how. I couldn't answer. Everyone was trying to comfort me when the lecture by her was end. But, I felt happy. She is not a simple lecturer. This motivates me to study. Unfortunately, I did not do well in my mid-term also as that week was my event.

This semester is considered as my philo sem. I keep on thinking Y. This contradicts with people's views nowadays. They just think I'm annoying. I don't do it just because I like. I just want to know WHY.

All the best, Tian Xin & everyone! =)

  1. Thinking of WHY is a good attempt of finding the reason behind everything, but try not to overdo it. Very often, you would only realize that when you have really experienced it.
