A short post
Haven’t been updating for a while.
I pulled off my first all-nighter last monday, finishing a Computer Science programming homework which should have been easy but was not because I did not have any prior programming experience. Slept at 6.40 am and woke up at 7.40 am for my 8.10 am lecture. (Berkeley time is such that things start 10 minutes after the time indicated.
The professors here are really interesting. My Physics 7B Professor talks a lot about the history of Physics and the year of discoveries and who discovered what (someone said he won the Nobel Prize but dunno why I can’t find his name on the net.) My Math 53 Professor talks really funnily and is a bit eccentric. People are skipping his lectures cause he is a bit hard to understand… Then Physics 7A is taught by a Greek Professor who is quite alright. So different and diverse teaching styles. But, well, staying awake is sometimes a challenge…
OK, that’s it. I pretty much am enjoying it now ![]()




Greek professors! We don’t have Greek professors here in NUS (I think)
if you are pulling all-nighters at the beginning of the semester it means something is wrong and you need to lighten your course load or else by mid-semester you’d be totally burnt-out. trust me that is not what you want happen.
@anon: well basically i am in a CS course without prior programming experience so I took much longer time than necessary to complete the homework. getting used to it so it’s fine. i like my subjects.
CS course… ask me if you need help. What language are you learning? Later ask me Python then I cannot help lol
@Ome: haha it’s a redundant language called Scheme, a dialect of Lisp which is still being used in the introductory course in Berkeley
Oh, it’s taught here too! Too bad I never got to take it because I was exempted from CS1101 (which had the Java and Scheme option) so now as CS1102 student am taking the normal Java option
study study study X-D hehehehehe i’ve been pulling off a lot of all-nighters! we work harrd together gether HAHAHAHAHAH except… ur night is my day and my day is your night -_-
Update more man! Missing yr updates already! (:
