Modules for Semester 1 done... Hopefully

Finally, I've got 5 modules which I need to take. Overall, I am pretty happy with them modules. I have attended 3 lectures so far and they are pretty decent. There isn't much difference between lectures in NUS and Birmingham in my opinion. Probably in Birmingham the lecturers speak better english that's all I guess (no offense to anyone or party)! :D

Below are the modules which I will be taking for Semester 1; might seem Greek to a lot of people I presume.

1) Physical Chemistry of the Solid State & Interfaces (Department of Chemistry)
2) Genes and Society (Department of Biological Sciences)
3) Process Safety, Health & Environment (Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering)
4) Engineering Principles for Drug Delivery (Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering)
5) Fundamentals of Project Management (Department of Building)

Another thing which I observed so far. Every class I attended so far, there are more girls than boys :) The ratio of boys to girls is about 1:2. ^__________^

Best Ever Meal in Singapore so far.

Was at Queenstown. Somewhere near the IKEA store. Had one of the most satisfying meal in Singapore so far. Seafood man! Chilli crab, sambal fried kang kung, Sting ray and Sotong! Fuyoh damn shiok man. And to top it all of a glass of Tiger beer. LOL. Full and nice! HAHAHAHAHAHA...

Singapore

Yes, I'm in Singapore already and still relaxing and slacking since term has started just yet. Pretty much added most of the modules which I want to take for my first semester here. However, haven't decided which ones to drop yet though. Might be interested in taking some modules which are not in my main chemical engineering discipline; very interesting indeed. Found a few modules from the physics and astronomy department. They were about how physics impacted life as well as some of einstein's theory of relativity. Pretty interesting but not sure yet because I need to write essays! Bummer. No final examinations though! :D

Hopefully will get the payment of my hostel and other misc. fees done asap. Still pretty amazed by the spacious and large campus of NUS. It is definitely way bigger than University of Birmingham. To be honest I haven't even fully explored my faculty. probably only been to one tenth of it :D
Haven't met any Singaporeans or Malaysians doing Chemical Engineering but I'll defintely get to know them when school starts on the 10th of August right after National Day of Singapore.

Oh ya got a few lecture notes for one of my modules by the name of Physical Chemistry of the Solid States and Interfaces. Wow, first chapter about A-Level chemistry which I forgotten most of them; atomic orbitals, molecular orbitals, electronic bands etc. Holy crap! Really need to brush-up on these basic or not I might be in trouble :( In addition to that there's another module named Molecular Design of Drugs. There are no lectures at all! This is because, the 3rd year Chemistry students taking it are all in companies around Singapore doing their internships. So, it is and "independent study" module which might have some risk taking it since I have never done it before ie reading lecture notes without a lecturer guiding or teaching me. Anyway will get that sorted out soon.
