I better post before August is up!

HAHA. I'm trying to make an effort to post at least once a month. Seeing its nearly September, and I haven't posted in August, I thought I'll do a quick blog post now! Or else it will be like my last blog... on MSNspace! i.e. posted regularly, and then slowly... slowly stopped posting. I want to keep this blog kind of consistent and in existance! Oh look that, did that just rhymed?

Life has been ordinary. Uni, work, church... Nothing much is going on. But I am trying to make an effort to go to church nowadays. Just trying to go everyweek. I knew before I was super slack with going to church. Like, I only went on the days I played piano. But for the past month or so, I've been going whenever I could. Not whenever I feel like it. Even though I feel super tired from a 9 hr shift at work, I'd make an effort to go. Unless I am ill or I have a massive assignment due the nxt day. So thats the story with church so far.

Work... one of the guys I usually work with, went on annual leave. The guy usually does the front bunk work. He comes in at 5am, puts the ice on the bunks and then puts the veges that will go well on the ice. Now he's on annual leave, I have to do it. But luckily I don't have to come in at 5am. I just come in at my usual time around 6am. But I must admit, working at Coles is pretty physically demanding. In some sense, I wished I had another job. But realistically, I'll never find such a job which is so close to home, where I can walk to work, save time on public transport, and can go home for lunch! (and get paid reasonably wel). But I wish I could work somewhere when I just sit there all day and use my brain or not having to move around like a mad chook trying to get things done! I've been trying to see what kind of jobs I can get with my degree. Even though I don't "officially" finish my planned course until 2012, I want to see what I can do in the future. Because I don't want to be suck at Coles for the rest of my life. For a number of reasons really. I want to earn more money, I want something that is not physically demanding, and I want to do something that actually relates to my course and shit I've been studying for the past so-many years you know? But the industry is so narrow. And you need to be good at speaking with clients. And obviously, I'm not the "good-at-speaking-kind-of-a-guy" type! So I dunno whats there. But I'll trust in God that He'll provide me with something (hopefully)

Uni... sigh! end of week 5 already believe it or not! And it seems Ive havent learnt much. I'm doing all maths this semester to complete my major and finish my bachelor degree on time... (after changing from one major to the nxt so many times =.=) Luckily, my degree is so flexible so I could do that! But I wish I could have done a double degree, i.e. com/sci! or even just stuck to something. Not changing my mind all the time. It frustrates me! But oh well, should be graduating by the end of this year (if I don't fail any subjects). Actually, speaking of failing, I'm quite worried for some of my subjects. i.e. Complex Analysis. Its really complicated and complex. LOL. And the lecturer doesn't help. I should be really helping myself by looking up the material in other textbooks or even ask the lecturer for help. And what I do... I procrastinate and watch TVB. I only got 70% for my first assignment. and thats really crap!! :( Cos for maths subject assignemnts, you would want to try to get 100% on the assignments because the exam is worth 80% of the subject. So you need some cushion from the assignment marks so won't get stressed out when exams come about. Discrete Maths. Its interesting. I wouldn't mind learning it, but I'd hate to get assessed on it. We learn heaps of stuff. i.e. counting. Statistics is such a horrible subject. I spent hours doing this assignment last night. Trying to get it done. 13 questions for just a 5% assignment. It's really not worth the time and effort! And each of the question is not easy as well! It totally stressed me out. Decision Making is probably my favourite subject. It probably has the worst lecturer, (same lecturer as graph theory) but the computationally wise of the subject is exceptionally easy! But some concepts are hard to get your mind around it. But I do find it really cool! Got 1st assignment back. Was really easy! easy 5% achieved.

okay, thats enough of blogging. May see you next month hopefully!

Toodles!
