It's been two weeks and I am still agonizing over my thesis proposals. I wish some people were not too smart on inventing things or getting them done so when I look up a device in mind it wouldn't be a product on sale. And my thesis adviser will not even think about giving me the you-just-saw-this-on-the-internet look. C'mon! Everything is on the internet now! You couldn't just present a thesis idea and say that it's very unique that you even tried looking for it in Google but your query did not match any entry!
Gimme a break.
That's as lame as trying to say that you just pulled it out your bedroom drawer.
Well, we had some ideas. But you couldn't just go straight to your thesis adviser and ask, 'Sir, am I making sense or what?' You'll need some solid facts. This is where Google comes in. And turning to Google during these times is not a crime. It's basically a necessity.
Deja vu- The illusion of having already experienced something actually being experienced for the first time. It is the impression of having seen or experienced something before.
This afternoon my ECE Laws and Ethics professor was telling us about how we must learn not to settle for a passing grade of 60% and aim for 80% instead since the passing grade for the ECE Board Exam is 70%. He talked non-stop about how come our college standard was just the same with the university standard when in fact it takes 70% and not 60% to pass the Board.
Okay. Point well taken. I admit we need that. Something to knock some sense into our heads.
But the thing is, he was talking about the very same thing last week!
It was so funny he even started his speech with, 'I haven't mentioned this before but...'. We were like, 'You've got to be kidding me! You were blabbing about this so much last week and that wasn't even the first time!'
And I couldn't help but roll my eyes when he said that it will only take 5 minutes. Ha! We spent 30 minutes talking about this last week! He even showed us the break down of our grades and said that we shouldn't settle for 60% because minus the attendance and homework, that only means that we only gained 30% knowledge from the things they teach us at school. And that 30% is very much far behind the 70% passing grade for the Board Exam. Needless to say, he spent 15 minutes instead of 5. He did it exactly like the way he showed it to us last week!
Deja vu? Definitely not!
Hahah :)
