Yesterday marked the start of my school~~ finally..... yeah it is... i had my first lecture yesterday and i was alittle surprised that it is taught in German.... damn man.... i seriously cant understand a single thing even though i put in 150% concentration... the website bluffed me sobz~~ anyway there is another alternative to this problem since i mapped 2 modules to the same one and either one will do... but the other lecture is on thursday so i have to see again =) If its in english then hahah~ i will change immediately!! I know i am here to learn german~ but its a rare chance to be in Europe so i would wanna travel more too hehe~ so by having more modules which are taught in english, it will certainly reduce my workload hehe!!!
Anyway my workload is already light enough cos i am supposed to take 5 mods here but i ended up taking onli 4 as the last one either it clashes with everything else or i have problems mapping or the rest of the mods which i mapped are not available during the sommer semester...
Future plans so far :
30th April - 5th May : Glasgow in Scotland and London =)
29th May - 7th June : Italy (milan -> venice -> florenz -> rome)
so for those frens who are visiting me pls dun come on these dates or you will find no one =)
Yesterday was also my first tabletennis session here in the university....as i was new there no one wants to play with me =( This was becos they all have their sparring partners and they dun wanna take the risk of playing with me as they dunno my standard..... i was rather sianz.... why so practical man..... so in the end i asked another guy to play with me. ANyway i talked to the trainer that i wanna train regularly so he invited me to his sports club...he said there will be good players around so i hope so =) Thats tonight!!!!! =P
Oh sorry i deviated from the topic~ the difference between NUS and here!!
1) our facilities are better~ i am refering to the lighting etc... you know in nus if the lecturer wish to change the light settings its jus a button away.... here every lecturer has an assistance which accompanies him throughout the lecture...things he does are changing the light setting when the prof wanna write on the BLACKBOARD...haha i am not joking...they are still using blackboard and chalk here....giving out lecture notes to the students....jus before lecture start the assistant will walk around to give everyone the set of lecture notes...so its either free or it cost onli 1 euros for a freaking thick stack of notes...these assistance are usualli students doing their master concurrently i think.... they oso act as secretaries for the prof.... its so funny jus thinking of it.... maybe prof in singapore are more independent hehex!!
2) the seating arrangement is abit cock up i think.... there are some big lecture hall but their seats are so narrowly squeezed with each other.... so when one person wants to walk out to go toilet or walk in to sit with their frens, the WHOLE FREAKING ROW has to pack their stuff and stand up....then that cockster will have the limelight of walking down the 'red carpet' with everyone's eyes on him.....everytime i see that scene i seriously wanna burst into laughter...
3) the mic device they use here oso quite funny, cos they dun use mini mics with clippers here....they realli use mics like those in KBOX(and i miss KBOX-ing too), and all the mics have these strings attached to them where the prof hang it over their neck and let the mic dangling in front of their chest.... so in order to pick up the sounds clearly the volume was on loud...i was quite surprise that there wasnt any feedback~~~ hahah at least the school lives up to its name being one of the better engineering universities in germany...lolx
4) i dunno is it me but the course which i took all dun have alot of pple taking it..... is it becos the courses are Masters programs??? every module which i take here doesnt have an attendence of more than 40 pple..... i am glad i dun study permanantly here else the bell curve system will kill me..... and speaking of their bell curve its not an inverted cosine curve like ours... oh in case any one who doesnt know how is the shape of a cosine curve (pple like szehui), its has the shape of a mountain....low points at the sides and a high point in the middle.... understand or not szehui!!! Tsk! Their bell curve here is in a shape of a W...... hahaha so its either you study or you DONT!!! hahaha their grading system is 1,0 for very good and 5,0 for you are screwed.... 30% of the pple getting 5,0.... hmmm.... in singapore you would be like damn paiseh to show your face.... down here you can lift your head high up cos you are not ALONE.... "ENJOY LIFE YOU SUCKERS!!!" -> this is not from me hehhehahaha....
