An extraordinary day^^

Early in the morning, Ms Yeo gave us a key of success. It’s a secret code that can open the door of succeed. Actually I heard about this method of study before during my high school, but I do not link them with a creative way. This is one of the way for our learning. For my case, I do need to study in this kind of environment and I’ve chosen the right place, ie HELP University College. As I mentioned last week, I’m a temporary primary school teacher before I joined this program. Ms Yeo’s creative learning skills are what I’m looking for to teach the kids to love more on the subjects.

Oh yes, let’s go back to the secret code again. It’s very simple. If you were to open this door of succeed, u just need to bear in mind that this digits, they are 10, 24 and 7. I guess most of us will surely feel weird on these digits. It’s quite a weird combination but actually it’s not well, 10 minutes to review what the lecturer taught after the class, revise in 24 hours can make you understand and memorize well, and get back to the notes in one week time, ie 7days to refresh what had been taught by the lecturer last week. So, these codes are really very essential on study no matter in what field of study we are. Thank you Ms Yeo for sharing this with us.

We did a self-assessment on our personality and behaviors during the lecture. It’s a very fun and interesting one. I’m agree and satisfy with the assessment because it really true on me. After completing this assessment, I have a clearer idea and option on what I can specialize in future. I can see that my potential is more to social work and that’s what I wanted to be in future. This is so cool. At least I knew that what can I really do and I’ll look into those careers in my group, ie the ‘S’ group in details.

Besides that, one of our course mate, Jeevi read out her Career Journal as a reference for us. She wrote it very well. I can get some hints and ideas from her reading. I can say that I get more guideline on how to complete this career journal after she read out hers. Thank you Jeevi for sharing with us. That day, we take the same bus and I manage to talk to her. She told me that this is the first time she stands in front of the crowd. She was very scared and worried the time she went on stage. Well, I told her that she did very well as this was her first time for public speaking. We chitchat a lot on our way to Bangsar LRT.

Once I reached home, I switch on my computer and go to read Jeevi’s blog. She’s really very efficient, I can read her new post around 6p.m. I can say that she’s a hardworking girl too. Well, Jeevi’ll be my role modal because of her good personality and learning attitudes. I manage to do mine as well after that. As the sayings goes by, ‘ How you do anything is how you do everything’. We must do the things correctly so that we can get the correct outcome. It’s true. So, as a conclusion, if we have a passion to do something, just go ahead and we will succeed one day.

My 1st day of psycho journey (for assignment)

Welcome to my blog.
Firstly, I would like to thank my sister for helping me create this nice blog..
Thank you, Regent! (my sister)

Well, today is the first day I started my lecture in HELP psychology. I find this course very interesting. That's what I want. I'll be looking forward for the following lectures with nice and challenging lecturers.

In my opinion, Psychology is a word that normally people will deal with the word ‘crazy’. I think most of the time in Malaysia, they do not really get used to see a psychologist when they or their loves one having problems in their life. Before I started this course, whenever I heard my friends who are studying psychology, I’ll also have the same thinking, ie. These people are mad. Well, now, it’s turn for my other peers to have such perspective on me. Even my family members and relatives also not really agreed that I take up this course. They still can’t see the career in future after I’ve done my degree.

I’ll take up this psychology course basically is because of my teaching experience in a primary school. I need to collect money for my first year tuition fees therefore I’ve been working as a temporary primary teacher for the last one and a half year. I’m very frustrated with some kids during that period. I met with all kind of kids in this school. Those kids with Hypertension Deficit, violent, bullying others, do not like to talk, slow in learning etc, are the one who lead me into this course. I wanted to help them very much but I knew that I couldn’t do so with my little knowledge. That’s why I wanted to study psychology and wish that I could help out them one day. These kids are really very nice to you sometimes when they are ‘normal’, but when they are not in their mood, they’ll do things that unexpected by you. I can say that teaching is really a challenging work as what I had experienced. I do salute with all the teachers around the world for their passion to take up this career and to build up our new generation.

Well, although I’m the oldest in my group but I still manage to mingle with them. Maybe it’s partly because of my chubby face. I do not look like 21 years old but look like 16 years old. None of my group member noticed my age till they asked about the year I was born. Well, age is not a point to stop me from studying this course. Although most of my friends who studied this course have graduated but I still think that there’s not too late if I have the passion in studying this course. I wanted to make this course part of my life and applied what I had learn throughout this course to help out the needy one.

Today is my first day into university college life. Actually I’m very excited for that because I’ve been waited for this day to come for one and a half year ago. Now, let me introduce one of my lecturers. She is Ms Yeo Pei Li. She is teaching PSY110, Career Guidance. She is nice because she organized an interesting ice breaking once the class started. I get to know more of my course mate through that session. I can make use of this method when I was to organize a camp or any motivation talk in future.

We have been told and assigned two assignments for the first day of lecture. That’s university life, what my friends always complain to me every time I chat with them. Well, although I do not really know what to do but I’ll figure it out as soon as possible so that I’ll not do the last minute work. I'll take this good opportunity to change myself into a better quality of person. This is how we are going to prepare ourselves to become a good and professional psychologist.

I hope that I can fully make use of what the assignments and examinations and bring all this into my career in future. Thank you for my daddy for sending me all the way from Cheras to HELP every morning. Although he mentioned that I’m psycho since the day I registered this course but I can feel the supports from him. I’ll really work hard on this course so that I really get what I wish to be in future. I like the sayings that Ms Yeo put it on the slideshow, ‘We live half of our life at work’ and ‘ Choose a job you love – you will never have to work anymore’. I totally agree with both statements. Most of the people nowadays spend half of their life working for their living expenses. It is a must for all of us to work, but if we are working on what we loved, it means that we do not need to suffer too much on the work pressure.

the 1st day of 2nd week lecture

today.. i studied Research Methodology.. it's something like research work... n the lecturer is Dr Albert Lieu..
v did lots of discussion throughout the 3 hours lecture..
what i find it interesting is by doing research on something, we can find out that most of the time we are having inaccurate observation. we are being missed-lead by the environment till we cant make the correct observation. now only i knew that common cause of deaths in Malaysia is asthma but not motor-vehicles accidents. that's quite a contras on our daily thought. don't you agree with me?
well, besides that, i also find out that although psychology is a hard course to study but as long as u r interested in that and put in more effort on that.. i guess i can overcome all the challenges..
that's all for today..
looking forward to the next lecture

:) cute pika,alice

the 1st and 2nd lecture day

welcome to my blog..
Firstly, i would like to thank my sister for helping me create this nice blog..
Thank you, Regent! (my sis)

well, today is the second day i start my lecture in HELP psychology. i find this course very interesting.. that's what i want.. i'll be looking forward for the following lectures with nice and sweet lecturers..

what I have learned on the 1st day of class (ie. PSY110 n PSY 111) ?
1stly, let me introduce my lecturer, she is Ms Yeo Pei Li. she is teaching PSY110,Career Guidance.. She is nice because she organized an interesting ice-breaking once the class started. i get to know more of my course mate through that session. I can make use of this method when i was to organise a camp or a talk in future.

besides that, i'm also having PSY111 , Introduction to Psychology by Dr Hera Lukman. She's nice,too. She told us that most of the time we have to read up for our own because she'll not spoon-speed us like what we have in primary n secondary school.. so, it means that i have to read up more n prepared for her lecture... um... actually it's good and that what i wished to practise last time when schooling.. hehe... so i'll take this good opportunity to change myself into a better person in life..

importance key words are here: WE ARE GOIN TO HAVE 3 ASSIGNMENTS DURING THE 1ST LECTURE!! THAT'S CRAZY... but i knew that's the route to prepare for us to be a good psychologist.. so, i'll take it and do it well!!! gambate alice...go go alice!!

well, for the second day of lecture, it's kinda stressful... stressful not in the sense during lecturing but is the lecturer itself..
there is a class at 9:00a.m.-10:00a.m. and the next class is at 4:00p.m.
in between, there are 5 hours time for the next lecture... guess what i did within that 5 hours? haha... you'll never know that because that's not my style... i went to the library for 5 hours!!! cool... this is the 1st time i been to the library for such a long hour!!! That's crazy man!!! i also salute myself for staying in the library for such a long duration!! haha... i didn'e join my gang 22 MV so i decided 2 get a place to sit down and spend the time there quietly and there it is... HELP's library at Wisma Help, Level 1. It will be my 3rd home.. 1st is my own home, 2nd is the lecture hall and library will be my third home.. haha.. so rich la me.. got 3 homes in my 20th... lolz.. by the way, i've fallen asleep about 3 time within that 5 hours because i'm not used to study in such environment.. lol.. but i guess soon i'll used to it as it is listed in my 3rd home.. gamabte alice!!!
now.. came to the climax of the day.. i've waited for 5 hours in the library just to wait for the next lecture, MC100. what happened is that... the class dismissed at 4:45p.m. that's crazy... haiz.. i've no good impression for the lecturer that taught me MC100 due to the 1st lecture dismissed so early.. hais.. anyway.. still have to get use to it... go go alice!!!
