Findings of my practicum!

Just went to my future practical school - SMK Padang Berampah.

The school is bigger than I thought, LOL. They just constructed another new building and they have two different sessions, for Peralihan, Form 1, Form 2, and Form 3, Form 4, Form 5... The school also provided both old and new (don't know if I can live at the new one?) quarters, maybe need to discuss with the principal first about that.

The school is good, still the distance from there to the town is like 10 km something, it will cost some time and effort to go to the town if I was assigned to the afternoon class. Not sure if there is any student's hostel but hopefully there is none, somehow. As I am using newspaper as a part of my practicum and also for my thesis, I think I need to do something about the transportation.

From the comments (even though I am not sure it is true or not), they said the students are 'naughty' and weak in English. I think I need to prepare mentally for the school as well...

Food is another issue - unless I know how to cook, LOL! If I live in the quarters, no food supply at night.. yet cannot afford to pay if everything eat at outside... thanks to the stupid system, WTH said that we get allowance for RM 10 or RM 5 daily? In the letter...

...Pihak kami tidak membayar sebarang elaun untuk penama berikut yang akan menjalankan praktikum...

Hostel fee (even though you become NR you need to worry on the application after your practicum and final semester), accommodation, course fee, bla bla bla. Where to get the money while you need to spend again?

The best thing about that location is there was 3G connection there! (even it can only get WCDMA and not HSDPA) I can re-connect or apply for Celcom 3G at my location. After all, I 'need' Internet to survive...

Wait patiently for the 45 days (That come soon)...

Holiday has ended and the semester break is coming soon.

In a summary, I had a miserable semester for the moment.

First - my thesis. Well, I do put out a lot of hope though. But, is it that I am really demanding, naive or what? If people really don't know... then what can that people do except by asking questions? Wanted to have a good quality thesis, but when the supporting force is not helping, then it is likely impossible to do so. I obtained an impossible topic yet I can covered the 'impossible' to make it possible. Please, I need your comment or support SERIOUSLY. It is not that I love to offend the rules...

Second - Practical. I hate this phrase a lot when I asks...
Don't worry, I will work it for you, just wait for us to inform you who is the supervisor.

Ahem... Of course 'you' are not worried because you are not the one who get supervised... It is not that tough - just find a supervisor near the 'coverage area' to supervise us! It is just four of us, after all...

Third - final exam

Well. some issue happened... I need to settle everything in 5 days and then 'not checked'... Gosh. I wonder what I had done in those days and doing something worthless while my work was not checked... wasted all my effort on the papers and no more mood to study my final exam... What... flunked all of them, of course.

Fourth - hostel

Because of practicum that 'not offered any allowance' to us, I am forced to register myself as a NR student just to save the 3 months money for my future accommodation in that area... During the practicum I need to worry my thesis, my practicum and my accommodation after my practicum. What a horrible semester.

I wished that I am a gifted one for now... Pretty envy on them, somehow.
