And so, it begins.

And so, lectures begins.

The lecturers are all fairly good, with the exception of the very first lecture which was canceled without notice because the class was "too small".

Lecture power points are always found on the school's server, and you can print them out, but they don't really care. Neither do I, since I'll use my comp to refer to them while studying while taking down notes.

Accounts was fairly dry, but plenty of stuff to write down. The female lecturer seems nice enough as she made the whole thing as straight forward as possible.

The laws lecture was at 6 at night, by some Singaporean Indian called Muru. Of course, he has a much longer name, but he tells us to call him Muru. He lectures fairly well, keeping the class attentive and awake, since it is rather late for the school.

On the first day, it's obvious that the lecturers have one thing in common.

Once it's over, you can go.

Especially the laws lecture. He ended the lecture by saying "I rammed through 3 chapters in, what", he pauses to look at his watch, "it ends at 7:50, right?"

It's barely 7:10.

XD

Fun.

Hospitality and management lectures are on today. Same interesting lecturers who keep the class moving by asking questions. However, one thing I noticed about Aussie students, is that they are very active in lessons. The ones who usually answer the questions, especially in a large lecture such as Laws, is a westerner.

A huge difference Singapore JCs, where the wall answers the lecturers, and some moronic lecturers will hold you back till there's 5 seconds left on the clock even though they finished 15 minutes early. If you pack, they will stare at you and say stupid things like "Why are you packing? Have I dismissed you? I want to hold you back. What can you do? Huh?"

Down here, it's "Dude, I finished like, 40 minutes early. Have fun."

XD

However, there is one common thing I noticed between here and Singapore.

Politics.

"Politics is dangerous", was the words of my Management lecturer.

XD

So true, even though quite a fair amount of people hate the American government (Figurehead reference), and seems like their government as well. It can't be avoided in laws, but the Muru dude kept it down as much as possible. LoL.

Although he did say that constitutions in Aussie is much harder to change than it is back in Singapore.

Why?

I'll leave that answer to you.

Hint: Who holds 82 of the 84 seats in parliment?
