Back again =)

Wow, never realize that I've neglected this blog for nearly 3 weeks. Well, I've been busy with society stuffs, mountains of homework, reports n assignments. And of course, 3 tests in one shot. Haha, can you imagine how hectic is that?

Finally, today I can get some rest and relax myself a bit. For the past 5 days, everyone in my course was living in a tension state. Not only we need to hand up assignments and some even reports, we also have to study for 3 tests in just a few days - Dynamics, Circuit Theory and Manufacturing Technology.

Haha, just by looking at the names of the subjects, I'm sure you will know that they're DIFFICULT! Well, what to do? I'm taking an engineering course, which involves those complicated calculations and weird theorems and concepts. Maybe people will say that engineering courses are difficult, which I've never doubt about that. But to me, I think that every course will have their own difficult subjects to deal with. If not, what's the use of taking up a course?

Sometimes I ask myself, do I regret taking this course since engineering courses WERE NEVER in my option list of choices when I was in secondary.. because I HATE physics =) I admit, at the very beginning I regretted a bit. Frankly, I don't have much passion in circuits and mechanical stuffs. However after some time, I guess Mechatronics is not that bad. I may not have the passion, but I think I can still deal with it. My passion, I guess I will just take it as a minor subject if I have the chance, since this world is a realistic world. Not everyone's passion can be an income. But truthfully, I've started to love mechatronics more =) Looking forward to study things related to robitics like sensors, actuators etc. Here's a definition for a Mechatronics Engineering degree from Wikipedia - "A typical mechatronic engineering degree would involve classes in engineering mathematics, mechanics, machine component design, mechanical design, thermodynamic circuits and systems, electronics and communications, control theory, programming, digital signal processing, power engineering, robotics and usually a final year thesis. "

Without doubt, life in degree is much more enjoyable and contented compared to foundation life. Maybe transportation here is more convenient, maybe the people here are more friendly, maybe my housemates are funny and nice. Maybe this maybe that... but the one reason that really makes my life in degree different from foundation is very obvious. I'm not going to state it here because I don't want to portray any hatred in my blog. Anyway, thank god at least the people in my course are ok and there are no politics in my society. I am really grateful with what I have now and I'll cherish every moment of my life here in UTAR with my friends.

Many events and time spent with my uni friends and buddies are playing in my mind now. We might be always busy with homework and stuffs, but still we manage to hang out together and have fun. Check out for the pictures of my happy moments here in Setapak ya. Hehe... will upload soon.

Alright, need to read through proposal and go to bed early. Need to have some rest..I mean REAL rest. Hehe.. nights everyone! Sleep tight tight!

haha we're the same kind of ppl - hate physics but taking engineering course

hahaha.. mine over d except for maths.. gambate and good luck to u!

~K£cќ~ said...

Wah i scared of maths T___T havent started yet since chapter 1 =.=" sei jor tis time ... 30% haizzzz ...


Gambateh to you too ... :)
