SA's having Learning Fest today and tomorrow.
It works this way: we signed up for courses through the Intranet two weeks ago. There were 99 courses for us to choose from. Some were of course more interesting than others. We need to sign up for at least 4 courses from at least 2 out of the 4 categories they have. Then you pay course fees if there is any, and just report to the designated venues for the courses.
Eh, why am I telling you this? I don't know, so that you can get a clearer picture of my life?!
Anyway, I signed up for 5 courses: Java programming (which I didn't attend in the end coz of ...), film appreciation, making your own video, Bollywood fusion Dance (don't laugh!) and last but not least Creative thinking skills workshop.
Film appreciation was quite informative and interesting, but the technical problems we faced made watching movies so tiring. The sound track was faster than the motion, eh whatever it is, so we had to listen to the conversation first then try to match it with the relevant scenes which came about 5minutes later. Especially for movies that are heavy in conversations, totally can kill you.
Making your own video was, eh, stupid. Its all about windows movie maker! Oh I figured that out myself quite some time ago. Was looking forward to something more advanced, so the whole time I was just waiting for time to pass. Fortunately instead of 2 hours, the course was only about 1 hour long.
Looking forward to my courses tomorrow. Haha, I wouldn't mind crashing any courses if time permits. But that's given that my work can be done on time.
Looking forward to weekends to come, although that would mean more homework. I suddenly feel like watching a movie, but no, I won't watch The Simpson.
