ah... the new school term starts. It's been a very nice, long, enjoyable, satisfying holiday for me. The best I've ever had! :D FOURTEEN WEEKS of enjoyment!
Well, time for school has begun, and it's my final year. I really thank God for the miracle of being able to do an extra year. As some of you may know, with my current score, I would not have been able to make it to the Honours class, but at the end of year 2, I made a prayer, more like a bargain with God to grant me the favour of being able to do my honours year. In return, I was willing to serve in the music ministry (VCF) for another year.
Thanks be to God, for He did indeed grant me this favour!!!!!!!
Well, I thought He would grant me good results and enable me to make the 3.8 CAP requirement. But no. Instead, I beleive that God worked an even mightier miracle and the university lowered the CAP requirement and that enabled me to qualify for this extra year.
As my brother Kelvin Tan put it to me earlier this year, the Lord was telling me that I made it to the honours class not by my own power but by His. Indeed, the Lord is sovereign.
So, here is a run down of my modules!
Science of Music. Well, apparently it's very easy to score in this module. And it does not have a final exam. Just 1 term paper, 2 term test, tutorial participation and a composition piece. Interesting! Well, I hope that with whatever music background I have, it would be sufficient to carry me through!
Reason and Persuation. It's the introductory Philosophy module, but it's the 3rd of the philosophy modules that I am taking. Philosophy does interest me, and if I were an arts student, it would probably have been my major. But, like the previous 2 modules, I believe that this module would probably just mess with mind. This is going to be a S/U module, to take the load off my thesis. On top of that, it's webcasted! So I may not need to go to school on Thursday, a kind of pseudo free-day!
MA4235 Graph Theory I. Ah... the maths modules at last! Graph theory. Was almost going to do this as my thesis subject. Unfortuantely my lack of knowledge in this branch of math made a big impact on my dicision. Graph Theory, no not x-y axis, but vertices and edges. Should be an interesting module. The 2 previous modules I did on graph theory were my best scoring modules, but now I will be exploring the more theoretical aspects of the subject. Even more fun!
MA4266 Topology. Now this is my honours thesis subject. It's my 5th analysis based module. It's my 7th if you count complex analysis I and II. But yup, having done some reading for my thesis, this module is probably going to be one of the more interesting ones of me!
Honestly, it doesn't feel like school is starting. I guess it's because my day on starts at 6pm on Monday and Tuesday is a holiday. But well, I can't wait for friday, because, that's when my math lectures begin!
