Honestly,
“Polytechnic is very fun” is a propaganda.
All
those that you heard about, not needing to go school, and everything is just
butterflies and colours and fun. It’s not true.
Every
institution has their own policy and their rules. With my school, failing exams
will lead to expulsion and the lack of attendance leads to a NGP (Non-graded
pass) for examinations results, which means, you do not get a grade for that
module. Which is practically the reason why polytechnics still has so many
people in campus. Just, why didn’t I realize.
My
personal experience of poly is that, there is not much of a difference between
secondary school other than my campus is so freaking far, and every lesson you
have to travel to different class in different blocks in different levels in
two minutes. (why is the school so huge though).
For
those people that don’t know yet, I am in TP and currently in the School of IT.
Not business or anything like that, but I am happy there.
So
far, the only camp that I went to is the orientation camp, I would say it is
pretty fair play since everyone is older, you get to do more crazy things and
speak in a way where everyone is comfortable with and not like those strict
rules you have back in secondary school.
I
just know that it is a pain in the ass to wake up every morning to go to a
morning class especially since my school is so far away.
I
have no problem easing myself into the culture of poly life, and even though I have
so much to complain, there are things that I genuinely enjoy a lot more. For example,
you have big assignments that you handle yourself with a deadline, researching,
computing and presenting are things I enjoy doing. Rather than boring
homeworks, you get to choose if you want to do tutorials provided, I mean you
get extra points for GPA for doing them, and you learn something before the class
test, so why not?
Lecturers
do not care if you are a trash, since what they do only is to teach. Pass or
fail, is all in your own favor. I have always preferred to do things in my own
pace so, there aint no anything about the studying system that makes me
unhappy.
I
have been pretty anti-social, I rarely hang out with people that are not my
classmates. All I do after school is either, go home, eat lunch before going
home, or find boyfriend.
Nothing special has yet to happen, not like I tried to
make it happen, well.
FUN
FACT: I have been reading the bible recently, I am NOT a Christian, just
curious.
Until
next time.
