I was chatting with my friend and we were talking about twitter... then about blogging... and then I decided to check my blogs and saw that I should post something here =P
I've finished my course! =D
After 3.5 years (due to me having to repeat some units 'cos I failed some units) I've finally finished my course... I don't get my certificate though and I'm not going to the graduation ceremony and people keep asking me WHY????? =.="
Why am I not going through the ceremony?
Because I'd have to pay.... For the renting, ceremony, guests, photography................ and the certificate... Not to mention it's long and boring as I've heard from some people... If you want me to go through the ceremony... Why???? Lol XD
Well I think I'll recap what I've learnt/how I've grown throughout the years of uni life =P and in case you're still not sure... I studied Bachelor of Computer Science
Year 1 Semester 1:
Basic Java.. Looking back.... the assignments are easy! Lol XD
Algorithms... It's also not hard... guess I didn't really pay attention in class... had to repeat this unit >.>
Mathematics... If you didn't study maths methods in high school, you're gonna have an extremely difficult time.......... yeah I didn't study maths methods in high school D: had to repeat this as well >.<
System units... no idea why we did this unit... didn't really have to use it in further units.... but i got a distinction for this unit anyway LOL even though i hated this unit second most.... hahaha XD
Year 1 Semester 2:
Computer Science.. this unit was pretty hard actually... but when i had to retake it, it suddenly all made sense O_o with some still very difficult parts XD
oh dear... i can't really remember what units i took in second semester... haha XD
another maths unit... this was still hard but I'm thankful to God that I knew someone who was doing honors in maths...whatever you could do that for O_o haha XD he helped me a lot :3 you know who you are!
okay i have my academic record open just so that i can see what units i did haha XD
IT in organizations.. I'd have to say that this was a really useful unit.. kinda saw how organizations work in terms of projects
IT for business.. this was an elective and I really enjoyed this unit since it was working with excel XD and not just any excel... programming with excel! so like visual basic stuff :3 i love that stuff! :D
Year 2 Semester 1:
Computer science... again... well it was more understandable this time and i made close friends by repeating this unit XD
algorithms... again... and it was so easy this time! how did i not see it... and this was actually where i met one of the friend that was part of the close friends group... and that's how i got into the group... haha XD (because she was the only girl! and has the same name as the other close friend i made much later in the course =])
Systems development.. this is similar to IT in organizations i guess... can't remember much that happened in the unit anymore though... >.< 'cos it was so similar?
E-business.. i really liked this unit as well.. taught me how to program websites with javascript and css.. and html i think? lol well it was a fun unit ^-^
Year 2 Semester 2:
youth media. why did i pick this unit? wasn't really enjoyable for me 'cos we had to write essays... lol XD after a year of graduating from high school, i'd forgotten how to write essays O_o
Data management.. i think this was the unit i did at caulfield.......... with 2 of my close friends... haha~ not a really useful unit for me i'd have to say XD
project management.. or maybe this one was at caulfield... nah i'm pretty sure it was data management... but i don't remember what this unit was... i think it's also very similar to IT in organizations and Systems development..
Algorithms and data structures.. oh man this unit was totally messed up >.> lecturer wasn't good and it kinda seems that......... IT lecturers that teach IT... can't operate a projector?! (with exception of the Computer science lecturer... she was nice actually lol XD) even my language lecturers could operate projectors better than I could seeing that i haven't fiddled with the system to see how it works lol... well going back to the unit itself... the content of the lecture slides wasn't that good either.. ahfhsaughas;ofijad;lkgj yeah..
Year 3 Semester 1:
Korean.. lol i got into kpop in my second year i'm pretty sure... then i got interested in learning korean 'cos of kpop XD and this is where i met the close friend i was talking about earlier XD said her first impression of me was an abnormally quiet girl......... sorry! LOL i was shy ; n; but now you know how annoying i can get muahahahaha~~~~
e-business.. no not a repeat... but i was disappointed after finding out that it was a different type of content than the e-business i did in the previous year XD and.... i can't really remember what this was about O_o
information and network security.. hah i remember i went to the lecture... to type up the lectures onto my onenote... 'cos that was the only way i could actually read the lecture slides XD that's actually how i started typing up the lecture notes i think.. and then i stopped going to the lecture 'cos it was 5-6 if i'm not wrong... and at caulfield too o.o and i had a class before this as well? this was an IT elective and it needed to be 3rd year so... nehh XD
System tools and programming languages.......... C... bash... linux... baosihdfoahges... this unit was also very messed up.. i left the exam with the paper more than half unanswered and i still managed to pass this unit...... i did learn some useful things though but it would've been easier if theory of computation was a pre-requisite for this unit since there were some things applicable from that unit...
Year 3 Semester 2:
korean again! a lot harder this time though o.o i think languages for me aren't good if they're so short and so fast... need longer time to digest the vocabs and grammar structures >.< *munch munch*
theory of computation.. also can't remember much but i remember that there was something in this unit that was useful for C, bash and linux XD
Computer Science Project... This unit was actually really fun but when I heard that there was gonna be a hurdle for class participation... i was so nervous D: dreading every week that i have to actually say something lol XD but it was the first time I made a full program that actually worked o.o and it was fun learning while doing it as well :D
maths that i had to repeat from first year semester 1... haha... but this time i had my notes from then and i understood better... maybe my understanding of things developed while doing the course o.o pretty sure i'm not the only one....
Year [3] Semester 1:
yeah i'm saying 3rd year 'cos i want to XD haha... well whenever people ask what year i'm in i just say final year.. maybe i should just change it to final year...
Final Year Semester 1:
Chinese... yes! i'm doing chinese! mainly 'cos i wanted to talk to my grandma in chinese... but also because i had electives i needed to fill... XD it was a good experience though! learning a language that i should've learnt many many years back... when i was still a kid... oh regrets of why i refused to learn~... if i had a time machine and went back in time... i'd have a good long chat with past me and tell me to learn everything that i'm given a chance to... ^-^ but that's past and i can't do that 'cos i don't have a time machine "OTL oh wells~ just pick it up and move on~
Japanese. Although I did this in high school... it was a really fun unit :3 actually talking to each other in Japanese... kinda....... lol.. >.<
Advanced programming.. this was where we had to work in pairs and develop an android program.. it was a really interesting experience although assignments every 2 weeks.............. and it was really stressful one time when i had some big problems that popped out in my personal life... can't really say that's over but i've got to deal with it... well anyway! one day i'm gonna make a game for android! :o one day.............. it seems hard to do when i think about it... haha
parallel computing.. i went to the first 2(?) lectures... then i never went to the lectures... i couldn't understand what he was saying so just headed home early that day and read over the lectures in my own time..... and did the tutes on the way to uni that day..... and did the labs the first few weeks in class but then decided to do them on my computer and then send it on the day i had my lab seeing that we had to send it to our tutor anyway XD (not to mention they already gave us the lab answers...) and then went to that lab when we had to demonstrate our program... the second assignment was fun :3 learnt everything related to the assignment from the labs that we were supposed to have learnt then LOL cram learning! it was also at this point that i realised how to properly study =.=" WHY WHEN IT WAS THE LAST SEMESTER????? WHY??? 웨?????どうして????为什么???? haha all that language learning... XD
well it was a fun experience... being at uni i guess.. making close friends... warm feeling in the heart~ ^-^ i didn't really stay for much club activities 'cos they're always at bad timings! D: i live far away you know! >!!<
Well that's it I guess ^-^ I don't get my certificate until 3 weeks after the graduation ceremony which is in October so I pretty much don't get it until November....... oh well... what you get when you graduate in absentia~ XD
Oh yeah, I had to check multiple times to make sure I actually finished my course O.O!! so paranoid about it~ >!!<
Well this is it! Thanks for reading! :D
