tired.
just had a crash course through money just now. and i must say i understand it so much much better now. gahh i hate rj's notes, i think they're too content heavy and the font is super freaking small. of course if the font size was bigger i shudder to think how thick the notes will be. like agricultural biotech, it's 73 bloody pages, i think if they enlarge the size of the font to like 14 i will be lugging a book-thick stack of notes to lectures and home. but still. after looking at other schools' notes, i conclude that they are so much more user friendly and understandable *cough*keynesian theory*cough* . sickening right. but oh wells.
money, thank god, was one of the better and understable topics of the macroeconomy. keynesian was horrid. really really horrid. and national income accounting was slightly better because NYA is much easier to understand.
damnit i think i so should have taken literature.. despite the fact that i don't think i'm an excellent lit student, i think i would at least have had MORE fun taking lit than econs. a year plus ago i would have said the converse, the sad thing is that RJ's econs department simply cannot compare to AJ's econs department, IMHO, unless you consider the S paper teachers. the AJ econs dept is much like the S paper teachers in RJ; they actually instill in you the hunger to learn more about econs. they don't treat econs like a subject to be routinely taught, they treat it more as knowledge to be imparted.
having said that, i think that having teachers who actually care about you and the subject really helps in getting you the grades. i find that when teachers actually put in the effort to help students who really need it, the end product is that the student is actually motivated to work harder because it's like a debt of gratitude to be repaid, and the best way to repay the teacher for his/her hardwork is to produce good results. also, if the teacher is really interested in teaching the subject, he/she'll make sure that you understand the topic perfectly before moving on i.e. throught analogies and explanations and concepts and perhaps out of syllabus stuff.
anyway. the guys went to play lan yesterday, and i didn't play cos my eyes and brain were about to shut down permanently. so i went to watch to pick up some lanning tips. so it was lester jw jems and minghao vs 3 other people.
clare and chengleng came along after that, and chengleng wanted to play. so it became 3 v 3. and jw's lion was like. o_0
poor clare's cm was whacked left and right by MINGHAO...
anyway. it was quite an interesting game, and furion's ultimate is damn good to creep.
oh ya. had this AP test which totally drained me. so ya.
sianded. byebye.
