Yet another Monday…
I find Mondays slow to get over with.
I have lessons from 9AM to 8PM on those days and the lesson at 5pm - 8pm slot is without friends I already knew in my course. And worse of all, it’s something that I don’t really like or would love to know more about.
So why did I choose it? Simple - because I heard it was easy and that’s good enough for me to choose it as an extra subject. But passing time in this lesson isn’t that easy, seriously.
- First, I am alone - there’re no other friends that I know. That’s very sad, seriously. Well there’s one. But we’re seperated across the lab because we’re from different classes just sharing the same lab. And if there isn’t bad enough, there are a lot of people of other races. I find it hard just to communicate with them, especially with the you-know-who race. I’m no racist, it’s just them. Trust me.
- The duration is very long. Although I had lessons for 3 hours even as an extra subject, but that was an enjoyable ones with my friends (refer to the previous reason). We played games throughout the entire session in classes and almost all of the time involved were fun times. No solitary idling around in a corner wondering why the sky is blue or whatever the teacher is talking about. Nope.
- What’s Electronics ProtoTyping? No idea. I have had 2 lessons in 2 weeks so far and the latter was a repeated one for those who just came in because they had their CDS finalised this week. I still don’t know what’s the scope of my studies in this subject, but I heard it will all be about soldering and most likely our project will be about doing a power plug. No calculations of Ohm’s Laws or related Math, please!
- It’s the interests that I lack. I think my forte is with programming of any sorts though I don’t like to do it as an subject, rather it be a passion. But I certainly don’t have any affinity with labs of that involves mechanism such as Digital Multimeter or any of such. And that’s why I’m starting to regret!
Crap, I need to develop some interests in this subject or I’ll just die of whining or boredom, whichever first.
All right, I guess this little post is enough of whining to make up for the 3 hours of boredom I experienced today in that session.
Nevertheless, I’m sticking to this subject because I chose it. I’m just not used to it, but I’ll be fine after some times. And one day you’ll probably see me posting “EPT is cool!” here.
But for now, I’m counting my blessings because I’m not the only one who is isolated into different classes, and there are worse cases of isolation.
