One Fuckedup Retarded lecturer

After 3 weeks of totally being on books, I am free~~~ For the time being.

Now I want to say about One Fuckedup Retarded lecturer. Just an amplification of Mr Fuck Ruhua in Lecturers Nowadays.

Lost count of how many things he pisses me (and others) off. Let's do a count now:

1. He teaches wrong things in class.
2. His Blackboard materials information are wrong.
3. His notes contains quite a few broken English.
4. His test paper has too much questions, no one finished.
5. He marks our test paper against his wrong answers.
6. His attitude sucks.
7. He is constantly looking down on people.
8. He degrades other peoples' works when his is nowhere better.
9. He thinks his Permanent head Damage and his experience (when he is in his late 30s) is everything.
10. He makes use of our assignment to "help" him in his research.

Wow! 10... I think there are definitely more, but lets just concentrate on this 10.

1) He teaches wrong things in class.

One of the things I just can't get over with. If he don't know what something (stress-shielding) means, then don't try to act smart and end up giving a whole lot of shit which is so god damn wrong. I can't remember what he said, for I can't find any logic in what he said that could help me remember.

Still acting smart, he goes on to explain "in vitro". "Something that is happening in a dead body", he exclaimed. Oh well, I would like to see you perform an in vitro fertilisation. Nowhere, seriously nowhere on the Internet can you find a definition of "in vitro" as being in a dead body. He has his own "Permanent head Damage" dictionary, printed in Malaysia.

2) His Blackboard materials information are wrong.

"Sensors and transducers", he gave. When sensors ARE transducers. What's worse is that he has been fiddling with sensors for years.

3) His notes contains quite a few broken English.

Well, self explanatory. Had a hard time studying his notes, with all that Engrish, and all that long sentences that he always includes in almost every page you can find at least one in every page and of course he seems to like to use them without knowing that he has been typing for the past few minutes without using fullstops or commas or any other punctuation like... . and , and ? or " or : or ; and ( or ) and '. You get it.

4) His test paper has too much questions, no one finished.

First time I've heard that no one in the whole class can finish a paper. List 5 reasons, and give 3 examples. 8 points to write about. He only gives 4 marks. 100 marks paper, 200 points, 2 hours. He may be able to finish, but he can't compare himself with us. He has been doing that for don't know how many years and its only 9 weeks for us.

5) He marks our test paper against his wrong answers.

Well, I couldn't confirm this yet, but he said during our test that Qn #, ### is just a value to confuse us, there is no need to use that value for the calculation. And after the test, I questioned him why that value should not be used. He gave a reasoning that was totally wrong (I only found out it was wrong a few days later). So I suppose he has a wrong answer scheme as he gave a wrong reasoning.

6) His attitude sucks.

Well, it just sucks. See 7, 8 and 9 below.

7) He is constantly looking down on people.

From students to lecturers, from civilians to government, from Singapore to Causeway (NOTE: NOT into Malaysia), even his own boss. Constantly giving comments which, I don't deny that some are interesting, has a hidden meaning to all of them. Nothing in his eyes is good. Everything just seems to be wrong when it passes through his mind. Ah~ 1 thing that isn't wrong - anything that concerns him. See 8.

8) He degrades other peoples' works when his is nowhere better.

Lots to mention, but I just really feel like saying this to him: "Well, your markers' positional accuracy is very precise, but the shift in rotational axis in the joints are unpredictable. Looks like there is nothing you can do. Awwwwwwww. But you know what? You are just blaming the nature for the fact that you can't solve it. You are supposed to be doing a research on it. Meet problems, solve problems. *I love this* But what have you done till now? NOTHING!!!"

9) He thinks his Permanent head Damage and his experience (when he is in his late 30s) is everything.

Yes, we may have less knowledge and experience than you. But yours is not everything. Don't try to use it on anything. Having me to spot so many mistakes you make, you seriously have a problem with the piece of paper (PhD) you have.

10) He makes use of our assignment to "help" him in his research.

During our assignment briefing, this was what he said: "What you do, will, hopefully, help me in my future works." So now what? He is taking us as free labour for his R&D? Using the fact that it has a weightage in our final grades to trick us into helping you? Try something better. Of course, I won't waste my marks away just because I don't agree in what you do. But seriously, despicable.

Seriously, seriously, seriously. As a professional educator, you failed. Go back to your Malaysia, I (we) don't welcome you here. Or maybe your Malaysia also have people like me? Hmmmm. But well, people like me is due to people like you.

Rest assured, our class now won't be like what you have for the past semester. Give not even a B for the whole class? Then, I will, within ALL my means, make you give me at least an A. We will see.

Different Lives

"同人不同命"

Translated to be: "Same, we are all humans, but we have different lives".

Do you believe a person can live 2 totally different lives? I do, cause I did.

I "was" a pure engineering student. Free time, boring lessons, quick revision and easy papers. These was what I had been doing for the past 5 semesters. This semester, I am doing something different. Biology. This is how I would describe it: "Time consuming, memory work(SSSsss), library, library, library and books."

For once, I am actually able to sit in front of my computer, and the whole day was just work, assignment and report (not today of course, but if you were to not take into consideration my blog time, then yes, today is also counted). The power of biology.

Few days ago, on my way home, with 3 books, total 10.5cm thick, to be used for my reports, I walked pass a malay (for identification purpose only, not in any part racist *although those who know me well should know what kind of person am I*). I heard 2 words behind my music from my ipod. "Total Nerd", loud and clear. This just shows how stupid he (note that i used "he" and not "malays") can get.

First, he doesn't have an affinity for books. He is knowledge-less. Second, he was stupid enough to think that I can't hear what he said (which I pretended to) through my earphones. Third, maybe he was just born stupid. Whatever. And I am going back to school on Monday with 4 books :D 12 cm.

Same, we are both humans, but he lives a stupid life, I don't. Same, me, but I can live 2 different lives - that of a engineering student and that of a biology student. Although to be exact, I have 3 lives. Sounds like in a game or what.

Anyway, different people really have different lives. Which life you choose to live depends on you. Live 1, find it hectic? Why not live 2? Or choose to be like me, 3.

Choices

"人生道路千万种 唯独一道必行之"
Translated to be: "There are many different paths in life, and one must take only one path."

We make choices everyday on every smallest possible thing you can think of. You think before you make that choice, or you don't. And you will only have two outcomes - favourable or unfavourable.

For things so familiar, you don't even think before making a decision. And when the outcome is unfavourable, you only have yourself to blame. For things so important and influential, you can, need and must think before making decision. You may take awhile, few days, weeks or years to make your decision, but when it has to be decided, you have to decide.

After you make your choice on something, you could suddenly think you had just made the wrong choice. You go moody. Sleepless. Regrets. Nothing you can do, its your choice. You try to change your decision. You try to avoid the possible unfavourable outcomes that may surface. Bad? Definitely as it sounds.

Most unexpectedly, the outcome din't come as you had imagined. It may not be understood why your anticipated unfavourable outcome never appear. And you start to wonder why were you worried in the first place. That, is life. Full of unexpectency.

Still, you have to face outcomes of your own choices. Regret or not, you can't do anything to change your choice.

Make choices, don't regret, and face its outcomes; with joy or sadness. That, is making choices in life.
