Uni without Robocon

Into my 3rd year, its the 1st time after 3 semester that i do not have robocon task or duty to undergo. life seem to be so much more relax. after going to class, the other time is to spend it for myself "wisely". This extra freedom seem to make me more a couch potato, always sitting in front the computer playing card games, looking through books a while, back trying out the internet. Life seem much more bored. Though i am now having a few project in hand. but most of them is not time to start yet.

btw, i am attending a bridge competition this year. its a different project from robocon. As weight is a critical point and we will also be evaluated on our presentation. So it will be really a great way to learn something new.

Other then those, i been trying to keep up on my study. Especially the things i was suppose to learn last term. it was my worst term so far, and i was just skipping through the whole semester. Doing this has make me realise i am losing out on education with the way i am studying. For the previous 2 year, i have not look into any text book. That means i was only studying from lecture notes, which is not the right way to study.

and by comparing whatever i learn from the notes and text book, i found out how much the lecture modify their lectures to ease the understanding, therefore touching less on the advance technical skill.

I now only hope i really understand those. the world does not only have one university, there is plenty more of challenge out there. There is really much more to do to survive. So, its time to study hard while study smart.

Thanks for reading

reading book is really a good way in your study cause lecturers' notes are just some points from many text books. If you have the chance you should read some journal, article, and review papers published by scientists. They are more recent and resourcefull...XD
