i'm done with the first semester!!! :D I survived the first semester! =) gosh... i can't believe it... hahaha... it's great to wake up the first day not needing to worry about what to you need to read up on and what deadlines to follow... what can i summarize from the first semester? The stress was straight at the beginning of first day i started my class. Almost everyday I feel the stress, the number of reading materials to catch up. the main issue is mostly that there's no fixed boundary to what you should study. the more you study, the more you understand the syllabus. I must say that in this four months of study period, I learnt so many many many things! They're very useful in stimulating critical thinking... I had even went through things that were out of my scope. I can tell you that I understand the modules I'm studying at this level compared to undergraduate time. What I can say is that graduate course is the real starting point to venture into a study of a particular course. Undergraduate was merely just a platform to get you suited to university life. Again, maybe it's because of the course that I am currently doing or the university structure. I'll get charged up for the next tough semester. Apparently next semester would be tougher than this because of the Operation Research and Probabilistic & Statistics modules that are considered toughest in Industrial Engineering course that're highly sought after.

The frustraton now is... I put on weight! that's the drawback. I seriously didn't had time to enjoy myself or time to do my hobbies. So my agenda now is to lose weight... =)

My Philiphino housemate's left and back to his country. I'm next. Well, I gonna miss staying in this house. Despite some of the complaints, everything else were good! complaint is a normal thing tho, and it should NOT be seen negatively. It's impossible everything's perfect on you. and there won't be changes or improvements if you don't complain and criticize... that's also why Singapore has better standards than Malaysia! Singaporeans like to complain complain and complain! =)

Once again, I think I had matured throughout this four months...
