End of the 3rd term......

HiHi! I know that it has been ages since i updated my blog!I was really busy and that is not my excuse!It just that i had my 1st year end exam,which i have to pass in order to proceed to the next term.If not,i will have to study all over again from the 1st term...so,what i did was study...study and study...and later i found out that my "hard work" was just rubbish when i saw that the question asked during the exam was way beyond my ability of understanding them......haiz....i think i better stop talking about that...it will just make me...URRGGHH....All right....let's talk about the others...i have finished my 3rd term which is also the first year.But the thing is i have to continue my class after a week of holiday.So,i wondered what is the meaning of setting the third term as the last term of the "First Year"?To conclude this term,i think that i have learnt lots of new things (of course i have to!That's the main reason for me paying that much money to the college!!!).Especially our tour organised by our very own BDT 32 students (That's the name of our class,means Bachelor Degree of Tourism Management and Engineering Batch 32.A batch is a name given to classes according to the time of intake.For example,i am January 2009 intake and i'm in batch 32,then if a student is in April 2009 intake,he will be Batch 33.Got it?) Our trip was going to Jeram Besu and Kuala Gandah on the 22nd and 23rd August.They are both located in Pahang and i guess you have never heard that names before?Yeah!it is actually a new place and Kuala Gandah is an elephant sanctuary where you can meet up close and personal with the elephants while Jeram Besu is a place full of adventurous activities like jungle trekking and many more.Altought our lecturer got so much hope on us because no other classes in the history organised trip like this,So,it should be quite interesting to everyone but unfoutunately we didn't manage to sell all the seats (only 20 out of 40).As a result,we are the first class to make loss in our trip.Haizzz...But luckily i found the trip way much more better that i forst thought i would be...i really enjoyed my self,epecially a segment called 4 Wheel Drive,where we had to stand at the back of the 4 wheel drive and gone though lots of damn bumpy road,I feel that it was my bumpiest ride ever in my life,even more happening than riding a roller coaster and once in te life time experience!Really should recommend it to my friends.And it was also my first time standing in front of the bus and talk like a tour guide...haha...that was really scary actually,although there was only 20 passenger on board...haha...i think i should stop...maybe i will talk i more detail when we are out YUM CHA...HaHa...OK...let's talk about my college life.My class are getting smaller and smaller each term (0ne term is around 11 weeks).I remember that we have 15 students in my class and now only 9 left...and guess what...i'm the only boy in the class now.......dunno it is a good news or bad news?And to be honest,i have thought about quitting the course,because i don't feel like it is worth for me continuing my studies there...because since our class is so small,so it is normal that there is very few students in class.And it did happen very frequently.It makes the lecturers lazy in lecturing us......And i remember advices told to me by one of my lecturers in 1st and 2nd term.He was used to be the regional manager for Air France.He taught me Airlines Transportation (Theory) and Toursim Information Centre (Practical & Theory) before.He said that my class is one of the worst class he ever had,because he can see that most of my classmates are not really concern and serious about their studies.And they don't deserve to be tourism oficers since they don't even posses the basic requirement of a tourism officer,which is punctuality.This is because most of my classmates always late for class.And my mom asked me whether i wanted to change course before since there is so few people in the class...What should i do?Continue or...quit?If i quit,what should i be studying?If i quit,it means that i have wasted the previous 9 months...haizz...that's my character-get influenced by others too easily...
