This week marks the last week for most of my modules in NIE.
As I looked back on the last 13 weeks, I'm speechless as to how time passes this quickly. I still remember the 1st day of my 2 year course in NIE very vividly. A lost sheep! No friends (then) in my class and course and was just roaming around to get myself 'warmed up' to my new surroundings and people. And before I knew it, almost 3 months gone by. What can I say except to really acknowledge how true this adage is; " TIME AND TIDE WAITS FOR NO MAN". Scary as it may be, but I've since learnt to cherish every moment that I have and to enjoy it to the fullest (not always possible!)
Now I can say, I really have made friends in NIE and I am loving my class. Well, still trying to get to know some better but I know we will get there.
Today was my last POG lesson and I kind of had mixed feelings. Strangely.
Towards the middle part of the module, I really struggled to come to terms with the disparity in the skills that I saw in myself and my classmates. And it doesn't help when my tutors took notice of me (constantly!). It seriously sucks! I had wished that the module will be over ASAP.
But now that its really completed, I kinda missed it. Haha..humans or is it women????
Anyhow, I must say I enjoyed the module as a whole. Learnt alot - both content and about myself. Learning to be teachable and humble at all times. Surely I had to put aside my pride and to be able to say " I don't know!" but don't just stop there. Take the next step to learn and learn and learn....Learning is life long. It never ends.

Below are a few snapshots of our last POGGIE session,
with our ever prim and proper lecturers :)
Learning to appreciate my class more and more. Every single one of them is special and has in some way or another added value to my life. Whacky and intelligent class we are!
