It is 0:15 now on september 10th. Traditionally this is a date to be celebrated for all the teachers, and indeed Chinese students do that every year. But this year it also becomes the first day of my "second" Junior year. Believe it or not, I have a four-month-long holiday this summer.
Two of my roomies went to bed already, and I am now typing some random words in front of my laptop, trying to clear my mind and move into the school shift.
Fourteen hours later will come the first lecture of the semester, which is the Global Social Transformation. It is the third year that I try to fulfill the minor degree of sociology. If the credits of the Globalization and Society could be transferred back to my host institution, I will have accumulated 12 units in SOC program and just need another 3 units to reach my goal. I am feeling a little excited about that, though there are certainly, again, tons of reading and writing waiting for me. As for the study of my major, I am taking ecology, molecular biology, and environmental biotechnology this semester. Only Ecology contains a 1.00-unit laboratory, and there's been a 18-page-long manual uploaded on the bumoodle (the lecture note downloading system). Sounds cool.
Yes, I am excited that the new semester is getting started, but yet I am very very tense right now. Maybe that is the only reason keep me typing continuously. I've been laid down and relaxed for about four months (this is perhaps the longest and lazy summer I have during my college life). It is the best time to force me to stop procrastination. Compared with the study load in Mercer, HKBU is just a piece of cake. You can never complaint about how less exams here have, but you may feel regretful of not studying hard enough throughout the semester because the schedule is such a loose one. I don't want to be back to a robot who are mastered in handling mid-terms and finals.
Because of the tense stuff, these days have been really weird that I am much more sensitive and undecidable. Overthinking really bothers me, and my reaction may or may not hurt the friends family members which worsen the overthinking. Cannot focus well and express the thoughts clearly. I am not satisfied with the current version of myself.
All this is caused by school, and all will be given an answer after the school starts.
