School Has Started

I finally get to attend school again. It is more than 2 years since my last lesson in an education environment. But the feeling of a university student and a poly student is definitely different. Especially in the quality of the lecturers.

Instead of creating their own set of slides and teaching materials, they follow a set of notes and slides given by the university. And the best part is, some of them do not know what is on the slides and just blabber without following the slides. I feel that i can study better on my own by reading both the prescribed text and notes, do the tutorials and try some quizzes online. The best part about these lecturers, they do not quite care about their student's passing. They seem to be just doing their job within their contract and hope that when it finishes, the school will either renew it or they find a career outside the education sector.

As for the on-campus transfer, i suppose im leaving end of the year. Going over there as soon as possible. Why? It is more worth it paying the exhorbitant school fees. I know its gonna cost more with the addition of living costs and other unforseen expenses(eg. abortion haha...). But i believe that you are paying for the experience which you will never ever do it again. Imagine if you still want to study overseas for a couple of years with a wife and 2 kids?
