school has been relatively ok the past two weeks. really nothing that interesting to report.
except that maybe my southeast asian art module's lecturer is suspectedly gay, but he's a cool guy because our tutorials consists of learning how to draw thai art and learning thai dance and his lecture slides consists of three pages with words and the rest are pictures. oh and he comes into class 20 minutes late. hurhur. leisurely walking in.
ive only been for one jap studies lecture and its alright i suppose. we only did the mandatory japanese history lecture and watched a video. the video was, erm, rather interesting. haha. it was a mini-documentary about male escorts/club hosts in japan and how it is a very popular concept in japan today. tsk tsk. the japanese are kinda wacky in their interests sometimes. but i guess maybe their excessively high stress levels are to be blamed.
my film studies modules is kinda cool. we're having dr. wee again which is kinda nice because im aware of how she teaches and what she expects in her essays. if i keep it up and do the same as i did last semester, i might just get myself another good grade. so yay-ness for me. haha. we're not watching movies every week anymore though. focusing on other stuff like television shows and youth consummerism and advertisments and those sort of media. the first lecture felt kinda like an NM module lecture. haha. it should work out to an advantage since quite a bit of stuff overlaps. well, we'll just have to wait and see.
ok, someone tell me why Reading Visual Images (GEK 1025) is such a popular module? its absolutely insane! i know it doesnt have an examination but other than that, its not that easy a module. there are quizzes every 4 weeks and a boring old essay to write. and the lecturer is BORING. he speaks slow, walks slow, does everything slow! and the timing of 7 - 9pm is just torturous. by 8pm im already fighting back the ZzZzzZzzz monster. gotta remember to bring a good supply of sweets for the next lecture.
and finally, Knowledge Economies. had i known it would be taught by Sreekumar, i would have stayed at least a hundred kilometers from the module. the only good thing is that his powerpoint slides have improved tremendously. other than that, he's still the same. his thick indian accent is still just as unbearable and half the time everything is asking their friends "what did he just say?" and when he speaks fast, he's as good as speaking his native language. to top it all off, the topic isnt exactly easy. woohoo. looks like im in for quite a ride with this module.
tutorials are starting next week and i aint looking forward to it. *bleah. its times like this i wanna graduate.
but on the other hand, i rather keep on studying than start work.
