remember, the most important person at any moment is YOU.
self care is important! it is okay to say no, it is okay to be absent for awhile to find yourself, so that you can truly be present.
can't believe it's my last semester, my second last post. i have mixed feelings towards the semester ahead. while i am happy that i am taking modules that i enjoy and want, i am sad that the end is near. i want to make full use of the sem, i want to try new things. i hope i will accomplish that.
i am taking 3 modules this sem only bcos i was able to clear 1 4k in y3s2. it makes such a big difference! this sem's timetable is the best ever.
PL4228 Criminal Forensic Psychology
i am thrilled to take this module! i remember the first time i saw this module in y1 and told myself that i HAVE to take this mod before i grad. and here i am. my year 1 self is very happy.
the prof so far is nice, and i really enjoy the content! it's so interesting, something that's out of the blue and will never be taught outside school.
tho it's only week 2, i am already lagging behind in readings lol there is just SO much readings with SO many pages. but no complaints haha, no more readings after this sem.
PL4236 Autism Spectrum and its Related Conditions
i wanted to take this module because i wanted to understand autism better. i have extended family members who have autism and i want to better understand what's going on and how i can better help and support them.
almost 70% of the class have experience with children with autism. i am not one of them. and i kinda regret because it is the essential exposure i needed and i wonder why i didn't go for it last time. nonetheless, i'm glad i'm learning about it now. keeping my options open for my first job. if this really goes well, perhaps youth for autism first? :)
the lecturer is super lovely, my favourite this sem. i am really looking forward to her classes although it's at 8am on fridays.
PL4239 Social Psychology of the Unconscoius
this is the toughest module for me so far, and the most technical one. i'm not sure if i made the right decision to take this module.. it was a recap of the things we have learnt in 3k mods.. but i guess i havent done a social psych related mod in a long time so this is a good refresher. it was either this or Patient and Health Care. i decided to from PHC in the end because the content was more straight forward and commonsensical.. hopefully this was the right choice.
i am most worried for this module because it's not my forte. but there's group presentation and i hope that that will pull up my grades haha.
--
i'm finally at the stage where i recognize most of my batchmates. it's comforting to see familiar faces and smiling at each other although we don't know one another's name. i wish i arrived at this stage earlier. finally making some more new friends but i'm graduating soon.
i hope that this semester will be great, i wonder what i will have to say about it in May. i hope that your semester will be a great one too! remember, grades do not define you. go and try new things, be adventurous! keep your friends close to you, and you family closer. you never know what you have until you're gonna lose it. i'm treasuring every single day with my friends and family now before work starts and all.
jiayou everyone!
cheerios!
