Season 2, Episode 11: Flashing back to Week 16...

" Two ways to learn: by observation and by experience. Be like an eagle and focus. " - Mr Bala, English 2 Tutor

The first and the final week of lectures share close similarities, yet when being scrutinized at, they are not so same after all. No more lab and tutorial sessions, and not many lecture times as some lecturers have completed the syllabus and decided to not have classes anymore. The major difference is that, the first week, we come in fresh, ready to start the semester and combat the feeling of post-holidays whereas in the final week, we go out beaten by the stress of the coursework marks and we have to combat the feel of freedom so soon we could smell. Nonetheless, time is, and will be, a factor as the final exam is ticking in and the study week is to come.

In a way, i am glad the Season 2 is coming to an end- and soon i will be in my Undergraduate years! Throughout this season, the courses that i undertake got tougher- as predicted. But no matter how tough it could be, we have to get through it. It is now left with the final exams and i can hereby say that i am almost done through.

Wednesday was the last day for English 2 Tutorial and as the class representative, we organized a get-together for the last time. It was fun, with all the pizza- rush, KFC- grab, cake-devouring and Coke- bottom-ups. It was really a time to remember with my tutor throughout this semester.

Written: End of semester... Get-together.

Tutorial Group 1 mates. Fun time together.

Mr Bala and i officiating the get-together. Soon after the cutting, we headed for the food!

The test of all tests is the Physics 2 Lab Test on Thursday. Given enough time, i hope i did well in the lab test as it may help ease the coursework marks too. And the last lecture is the Physics lecture. Ending the class with Nuclear Physics and putting a stop with a review of all the 16 weeks of lectures.

Dr John is a good Physics lecturer, and may be the best among my other lecturers. I will miss his lectures, that's for sure.

On the telly, it is down to the wire for the American Idol 8: Adam Lambert and Kris Allen. I wanted these two to be in the finals and great, they made it and America has the same taste as me! Who should be crowned? Personally, Adam to me is very theatrical and artistic. A very unique singer that can go to the notes many fail to reach. Week after week, his performance is top-notch. Kris has a nice tone in his voice and plays many instruments. He has many magical moments on stage, with songs that captures the heart and warms the soul. Kris, the dark horse, is surely riding high. So, who will win? I don't know. My heart tells me that Kris Allen will be crowned the title, but my mind tells me that Adam Lambert will walk away with it. If i have to choose, my vote goes to Adam Lambert, but i like Kris. Definitely, a must-watch final to really know who wins it that night!

Week 16 is the last week, and soon comes the study week. It is best i make full use of the week. wc09 is glad he made it through the 16 weeks of lectures (stress) and in no time, the final exams will come and go. And go!
