Really busy

Been really busy these days, more labs this semester and also much tougher modules that require the reading up on textbooks that simply suck away your time. After the comex last weekend, I'm still trying to put mi time management back on the usual track but work just seems to pile up when some tutors go through 2 tutorials at once while some go through one. Just when I thought the maths tutorials last yr was bad enough, it seems the tutorials this yr can be worse. Though tutorials are on alternate weeks, they sometimes go through 2 tutorials at once, so in the end it makes no difference.

Anyway sometimes i really dread going for german class cos the tutor mostly speak in german and half the time i have no idea wad she's toking about. Some of the students in class can get her but i think about half are facing the same problem and u can tell some act as though they know wad she's saying but when she prompt them they give totally illogical answer lah. z.B Tutor ask wad is the answer to a particular qn and u say no. Illogical rite, but this happens becoz she speak so fast using vocabs u never even heard b4, so basically for me i'm just looking out for those verbs n nouns i understand to make out wad she's trying to say. I think the biggest obstacle here is the lack of exposure to the german language in singapore, thus there's a lack of opportunity to practice wad u learn. Seriously i think taking Jap would be a much better choice, since not only do i watch anime i listen to Jpop too. But its a little too late now, just have to press on with the last 2 modules.
