the end of semester...

This semester is almost over. I’ve go through all the pain and sweet memory along this semester. I really hope that I’ve finish this semester soon. This semester is difficult for me compared to last semester. The subject that I take for this semester is not easy as I though. With the lots of assignment that I’ve to do, it makes my life busier. Taking 7 subjects is difficult for me. Each subject has its own difficulty. The subject that I’ve take for this semester are English for academic purpose (BEL311), Islamic economic (CTU241), macroeconomic (ECO211), mandarin ( BMD101), introduction of statistic (QMT216) business communication (MGT269) and the last one is co-curriculums which is I choose volley ball.

The first subject that I’ve take this semester is English for academic purpose (BEL 311). At first, my expectation for this course is this subject is an easy subject. Just like English subject that learned before. But, BEL 311 is different. It’s difficult. This semester, I learned term paper that I though easy at first. But it’s not easy. It’s really complicated. I’ve to find a lot of sources to do this term paper. Find the topic that suitable with the source is really complicated. Maybe at first I don’t really understand what term paper is really about. After go through all the exercise that Mr. Izuan gave it to me and my others classmate, I can understand the concept of term paper bit by bit. Mr. Izuan helps me and my friends a lot about how to do the term paper. All BEL 311 syllabuses that I’ve to go through this semester is all about term paper. From the beginning until final examination I’ve to face the term paper. Other than that, Mr. Izuan also taught us how to create the blog. Before this, I’m just read people blog and I didn’t imagine that I’ve own a blog. I hope that the term paper that I learned along this semester I can apply it in the future. I also hope that I can continue writing blog to improve my English. And I hope that I can get A for this subject.

The second subject that I take this semester is Islamic economic (CTU 241). This subject was taught by ustaz Kamarulzaman B. Sulaiman. This is reading subject. No calculation at all. In a first 13 weeks, ustaz just gave us the guideline from the syllabuses in the CTU241. And 3 week before final, he starts to give an assignment for us to do. We have to do the presentation about the topic that include in the syllabus. From my view, I think that this subject is an easy subject. We just have to read and understand the concept. After all, ustaz kamarulzaman is a good and nice lecturer. I hope that I can get A for this subject.

The third subject that I take for this semester is macroeconomic (ECO211).This subject is really tough for me. For the beginning, I can understand the entire concept. But in the middle of syllabus, I’m lost. I don’t know what I’m learning now. ECO211 is more difficult than ECO162. For the beginning, I’m in a d3b3 class. But after that I’m transfer to d3c1 class. It’s because I can’t understand what the lecturer taught when I was in d3b3 class. Now, my ECO211 lecturer is Pn. Zailati. She is a nice lecturer. Always smile and help their student understand what she taught. Sometimes I ask her a question to make me really understand this subject. I enjoyed learning this subject. I hope that all the things that I don’t understand I can cover it quickly. It’s because the final exam is just around the corner and I’m target A for this subject.

The fourth subject that I take this semester is mandarin (BMD101). This subject is really enjoyed. I learned new language. For the beginning, I learned about how to introduce myself, day and date, number and also place in mandarin. This is really funny when we a new mandarin learner start to speaking in mandarin. Of course it has several mistakes but our lecturers Miss. Zhang correct our mistake. She really patient taught us who sometimes ‘blur’ in her class. This subject doesn’t have final paper. But we have to do the test and project. The test is about what I learned along this semester. i and my classmate also have listening test. Sometimes I not understand at all what the speaker said during the listening test. They speak to fast. The project that I and my friend have to do is create a mandarin drama cd. It’s interesting but tiring. I hope that I can get A for this subject.

The fifth subject that I take this semester is introduction of statistic (QMT216). This subject is quite difficult. This is calculation subject. I hope that i can score for this subject. Other than calculation, I have to read and understand the theory and concept. This is little bit tough for me. But I really like this subject. Although is more complicated than mathematic subject that I learned in school, but I can felt satisfied when I’m find the solution for this mathematic problem. Miss. Zarina was taught us this subject. Although she is strict, but I really understand what she has taught. I target A for this subject.

The sixth subject that I take this semester is business communication (MGT269). This is really complicated subject. I have to do the job application, interview, meeting, report and also proposal. It’s like a practice before I’ve to go through for the real working area. For the interview and meeting, I’ve to wear proper just like the real one. The interview and meeting also make me sick. The interview and meeting have been postponed almost five times. But gratefully, I’ve go through all this successfully. This subject was taught by Mr. Ahmed Kamel. He is a good lecturer. Always tolerate with his student. I hope that I can get A for this subject.

The last subject that I take this semester is co-curriculums which is I choose volley ball. This is the only subject that I don’t have to study at all. I think this is the release tension subject. I just have to attend the class and play the volley ball. Furthermore, I also can learn about the volley ball. This is the easy sport and all people can play it. The volley ball coach is also a nice person. He also taught us how to increase the level of stamina. I like this subject and I hope that I can get A for this subject.

This semester is really tough for me. I’ve to do a lot of assignment. Sometimes I’ve to burn the midnight oil to complete all the assignment. I hope that I can get dean list for this semester. Although the chances to get dean list is small, but I can work hard to make sure that I can get what I want. I also hope that I can finish this semester soon because I don’t want to repeat all the mistake that I do this semester.
