This day was my first day that
started of second year life in the UM. After past 2 months having a long rest, I
was fully recovered from the tiring first year life. Looking forward to learn
more and know more about the majoring that I took. 22 credit hours sound heavy
for this semester but I had to get rid of it. Besides, even was the same faces,
but different outlook & style, I still able to recognize my course mates in
my faculty. Kept sharing the experience we had for the 2 months holidays. I had
a new change among of my course mates. I stayed in my house instead of staying
in college. I had to drive to campus everyday and suffer during traffic hours.

My timetable for Wednesday was
packed, starting from 10am to 5pm, did not have any break between them. Thanks
to my 10am – 11am period lecturer, extended her time from 10am – 12am, no time
for lunch. Besides, I had met with a new lecturer who was going to teach us
Audio Synthesis which made me worry about this course. Based on my first year
experience, my CGPA had badly spoilt by a new lecturer. However, because of
him, I learnt to be independent without referring anybody. After knowing the
schedule that the new lecturer gave, almost every week would be having a quiz,
an assignment and a tutorial. Well, let’s see first, because the teaching style
of the lecturer was different with those lecturers I had met before.

Just 1 word, stress. Having a
replacement tutorial class from audio synthesis. He gave us a time limit to
submit the tutorials and asked us to explore the audio software – Csound.
Honestly, I just learnt to use Csound, knew nothing about it and he wanted us
to submit the tutorial by this day. Again, struggling the tutorials, tried very
hard to understand the questions, understand what lecturer wanted from us and
familiar to Csound. Unfortunately I had to sacrifice my database lab section to
rush this assignment which I felt very sorry to the instructors.

Finally submitted the first
assignment of audio synthesis, but disappointed with the quiz just now. Perhaps
I did not prepare well before taking this quiz. Each time when the lecturer
told me that the quiz or test or exam was very simple, I felt that was a lie
for us to not be tension. Unfortunately, I thought that was a sentence which
would disappoint me after finished the test. And the lecturer of operating
system gave to all multimedia students a challenge in order the break the
record from previous multimedia senior to score an A for operating system. I
wondered whether I could pass with a flying colour in this semester or not
since there were 3 new programming language had to learn such as Matlab, OpenGL
and Csound. Furthermore still I was having 2 heavy subjects: database and
operating system.
