Its Another Rainy Day...

Rain~ Falling in my heart~

The rainy season's here people! With no regards to everyone's inconveniences, I guess its here to stay for a while. Just saw on the news that over at Taiwan, the thunderstorms has caused landslides in a few areas. We are lucky as these natural disasters do not happen over here in our small little red town. (Guess we have no mountains to begin with...)

Well, today's lecture was pretty informative and funny; didn't know Java uses so much of Shiva in their culture. There's this concept of localisation; the taking of ideas from other areas and applying to their own culture after some tweaking. Well, thats the layman term that I have come up with. Pretty interesting, this module on Southeast Asia.

Yesterday was my first tutorial and it turned out fine to my standards I guess... I only managed to voice out my opinions twice in the one hour class and I am rather pleased with myself for the effort. (Obviously, Singaporeans, by nature do not like to speak a lot unless they are coaxed...) Just for an hour of tutorials, I had to make my way down to campus, which took me 2 hours, thats 2/3 of the time spent on travelling. Cool eh... Well, it happened again today, although the situation today was a bit better than yesterday; 1/2 of the time travelling.

Gotta get back to reading those "Essential Readings" for my Southeast Asia module; its going to be discussed in the coming tutorial this Friday.

"Sometimes, we have to go off track from our schedule; even for a while. That will better prepare you for the coming challenges." Me [Heehee...]
