This. Is. Madness. – Victim of College (Maybe)

Assalamu’alaikum! xD

This post seems serious, does it? The title just makes college a very bad thing. Well, it does. Sometimes. If you don’t do what you’re supposed to do (procrastinating). I need to stop this sickness, it’s killing me slowly. There’s proof. So many of it.

  • Numerical Analysis : it’s been 2 projects since I took this course. One thing that you must remember. NEVER. PROCRASTINATE. Or you could be the victim (or maybe your friend). Leaving campus at midnight. That’s the outcome if you start your homework only like the day before, or two days before… or even three days before. I know for those who are the ancestors of fasilkom would think that this is usual for us. So normal that we shouldn’t complain -.- But this is our first time ever as a student. It’s okay to complain, right? It’s okay to express your feelings, right?
  • PPL : even just mentioning this certain subject makes me wanna barf. The documents! GOD! Please save us! Not to mention if you procrastinate. Spending your whole day typing documents for software engineering is not pretty and I’m sure that my eyes has taken it’s effect. I hope I won’t go blind >.>
  • Compiler : well, it supposed to be an enjoying course. It is actually! But it seems that the devil in me works better in his spell, the reason? I made my group “deadlining” our projects. Thanks to me, we have to spend a whole day to finish it. My eyes… MY EYES!!!! I’m sure they’re going to kill me if they’re human. I made them as a slave to push them working, staring at the computer for hours. I should go to jail (or sentenced to death) for bringing up slavery again. T^T

BUT.

This is a very different day. My group has just submitted tekkom’s second project before 6 in the evening which is way before the deadline (midnight) and I think we’re one of the top 2 groups who successfully submitted the report! YAY! xD

I hope I can be more aware of my time management. I hope I can be diligent like before. I hope I can defeat the devil inside me. I hope I can make my PPL group like the good me so that they can be diligent too and not delaying their tasks so that I can make benefit from it for I am the PM and I must control and watch their work :p

I hope I’m not going to be one of those victims of college. Depressed. Stressed. Hysterical student.

NO.

I’m going to change (too late). But it’s better to be late than never, right? ;)

This. Is. Madness. – Intro

Assalamu’alaikum :D

Oh, WOW! I updated! *screams in joy* >>Okay, let’s just skip the blabbering part.

As you can see (hear? read? whatever verb you are comfortable with), I am experiencing one “heaven” of a semester. May I show you why? First, the courses I took was… weirdly challenging. Let’s take a peep :

  1. Persamaan Diferensial or Differential Equation (3 credits) : The title says it all. It’s about getting to know the beautiful world of mathematics especially differential equation. The lecturer itself is quite promising (diverts attention to KoMas), and it feels like I’m having a private tutoring since it only consists of 4 “genius” students (me, one of the gods, the physics boy, and a 2009 brownies-if you know what I mean *wiggles brows*)
  2. Teknik Kompilator – Compiler (4 credits) : Let’s just say that I’m destinied to take this course cause maybe.. MAYBE, I’m one of the next generation who will contribute to teach this subject at Fasilkom. Period.
  3. CIS or Cryptography and Information Security (4 credits) : Taking this course is like a must (a need) for all CS students especially when “he” is the lecturer. So far, it’s quite interesting. Quite? Yes, because my attention is drawn to other courses, sadly.
  4. Anum or Numerical Analysis (3 credits): yes, it’s a must-be-taken course. No comment -.-
  5. PPL or Proyek Perangkat Lunak or Software Engineering-Realization (6 CREDITS!): well, not quite. It’s rather a simulation really. One semester. One project. Three students. No failure (okay, I just exaggerated on that one). This particular subject is the one who successfully stole all of my attention. More likely, I have to draw more of my attention to it since I’m the Project Manager (love the role, it gives me like an authoritive vibe~) xD

What? It doesn’t sound stressful enough? I’m exaggerating? I’m not skillful enough to manage my time? (true on that one).

Just wait and see on my next post.

Ayazizah, signing off.
