What I Heard

I have attended my 1st lesson on 12July2010(Monday), that is RUS101 at E48B from 9am until 11am. This lesson is for all d 1st year student of hbp. This lecture is held by lecturer, Mr. Wan Burhanuddin Wan Abidin. I learn pretty much in this lesson, learn a lot new knowledge about this course n also USM.

First of all, I know about USM, an APEX University, actually means that USM is taking part in Accelerated Programme of Excellence(Program Pemacuan untuk Kemacuan). USM setting year 2007 to 2012 are the year for transformation, means that USM wil changes from good to better to best, finaly reach the stage of excellence. And the word "status-quo", which means the existing state and condition.

Mr.WanB also introduce d lecturers to all students of hbp. Like associate professors Dr. Ar. Abdul Majid Ismail, senior lecturers etc Dr. Azizan Marzuki, and Dr. Mohd. Hanizun Hanafi.

At the same time, Mr.WanB explain the meanings of studio production and production. He said, to start a production, the process is intention-act-product. By the way, intention by actor, act by rule, and product by place. By the way, actors included students, studiomasters, USM community, Penangites, etc. It is very important in order to achieve the vision and mission of USM. Every actor plays role particularly in order to contribute for "transforming higher education for a sustainable tomorrow", which also the vision of USM. Next, we also introduced to 3P, which is people, principle, and place..

Mr.WanB said he will teaching or explaining most of theinfomation in English as exis tof internatioanl student in class. However, I am like it because that can improve my language. Besides, he also advise us should come in earlier, so that we can sit in front in order to gain more infomation and knowledge. As a student, especially HBP student, we have to work extra hard, study hard, hand in the assignment or any other projects in time. At the same time, we should change ourselves as well, follow the steps of world, TRANSFORMATION.

By the way, the most unforgetable period to me, when Mr.WanB kidding that chinese name are so difficult to remember, but sometimes Christien name are not suitable to every chinese name. such as

• 
  
  Carmen Teng - leghair long


• 
  
  Leslie Tan - dustbin


• 
  
  Nelson Tan - bird lays egg

After listening this 1st lesson, wauuu~ it truly motivate me have to change myself, to be better in future, can't only just satisfied this little achievement now. Instead, I have to upgrade from time to time, whatever in my coursework, exam, assignment, grade, but also my soft skills~~
