1. I shall print my lecture notes and understand what shall be covered before coming for lecture.
2. If shall speed-read my readings only after the lecture and accompanied by my lecture notes. This will take 2h. I will filter out the important bits as per the 80/20 rule and summarise them. I will then make a mind map of each lecture content. This will take max 2 hours after the lecture. I must sit somewhere and finish this. I can only let myself be distracted by my iPhone in a 25-5min rule. My iPhone's functions has been missing for the whole of Sem 1 so now I will again make spending $500 on this phone, worth it. N mb I should put Airplane mode sometimes.
3. I will understand everything taught that week by Friday.
4. If possible I will arrange lectures to be in the beginning of the week and tutorials at the end. Tutorials must be after lectures.
5. I need to eat healthier. I really don't like school food with the exception of Science sandwiches.
6. I need to study in an aircon place.
7. I will never choose a module like Space Time Matter ever. :(
8. I dunno what to do about group projects. It's a mystery how to score in this segment.
9. Individual assignments have been fine.
10. I will have to do tutorials more dilligently. Really understand concepts before I go in tutorial.
11. Prepare a file for each module.
12. Preparing a weekly plan has worked for me greatly. Keep that up! ~~
13. Print/save in Evernote/Stanza the breakdown of components and percentage pegged to the component. No I think putting this up on my wall will be better so I know where to distribute my efforts.
14. Exercise more per week.
15. Wake earlier because those who wake late has lost a lot of time.
Now, I feel like that period in Pre-U 2 where I wanted classes to end and the long study break before A levels to start. Yeah I want to re-do my semester and make it better. Because there were so many frivolous things that I did not have to commit myself to. Yeah. One semester is a dead on state of focus in a concentrated period of 4 months. Though seniors and the experienced staff do tell me that Year 1 is the most difficult year as it is the year of transition, it takes your own experience to really understand what it is like. As I feel like a dump now that my last STM paper is a confirmed cap-puller in the direction of the negative y-axis, there is nothing I can do except reflect and remind myself not to do this again. I cannot emphasise on how module choice is important and that sometimes the ability to score in a module > the desire to take a module out of intellectual interest. However, a senior has said that module does not clash with your schedule and you really want to sit in lectures, you can email the professor and ask nicely.
N I can't take learning a language right now.
