So, how's college?
September 5, 2009
CUNY started the new semester on August 28th, which was a Friday. My first class was music 10100 which started at 8:00am and last for the next 2 hours and a half, until 10:30am. Then I had my chemistry, FIQWS lecture and finally chemistry workshop.
August 28th was a week ago. So how's my college experience so far? Well, so far so good. I actually enjoyed being a college student. I am very satisfied with my chemistry professor, who called himself "a crazy professor". Since his first lecture (he brought his son to our first lecture), his demonstrations were always an epic win to the students. They scared the students (including myself, of course) though but we still loved to see them every in the end of every lecture! For example, he would put a handball and a banana into [i forgot the name of the liquid]. These objects lost all their heat and so they froze. Then, unexpectedly, he threw the handball across the lecture hall, and it broke with a sound just like breaking a glass. LMAO
He did so many amazing and great demonstrations which I hopefully will get a chance to record them (I have to ask his permission, of course). He did record his lecture because he used the "lecture text pad" to write notes and presented it on the screen. He recorded the pad and his lecture, but I doubted about the demo part.
Anyway. My calculus professor was a phD and he wrote textbook. Although our first two classes focused on high school materials, such as inequality and absolute values, he actually put effort into the presentations and used amazing examples to prove his points. I actually enjoyed the class. Yet, I hoped someone could turn down the air-conditioner, just way too low.
Anyway. I have an amazing time with CCNY. But as I progress, things get harder and more time consuming, I will eventually hate college. We have Monday off due to the national Labor Day, but I have a list of things to do, especially with the CCNY Student Group - indeed a pain in the neck.
