someone like HIM

after not being able to get a good night sleep because of the EU ASEAN presentation that i had to do today, i was once again rejuvenated by a lecture. i got the passion to learn and believe that i actually enjoy and want to study.

It was all because of Nick Bisley. He is now an associate professor in la trobe uni and was formerly monash's diplomacy and trade program manager. i didnt get the privilege of being in his class room and being able to absorb all of the knowlegde out of him this semester, cause he moved to la trobe just at the time im starting taking his units here in monash. i am missing out a lot.

i was just so amazed on how i cant stop writing due to this flow of information coming out of him, yet it was only a one hour lecture, something that i havent done in the past year.

it is actually sad to see that the enlightment came this late in my study but, i reckon it's better late than never. i was so caught up with my frustration of having a bad to so-so lecturer that led me to believe that i am not really learning anything or not being able to learn anything. i should have snapped out of this along time ago, but i didnt, not until now.

how can i not ask for more, when you have these set of lecturers that have the experience, abundant experience but do not know how to teach properly whilst of the other side you got this really good speaker and knowledgeable lecturer that triggers you criticism and makes you want to learn more. i definitely opt for the latter.

unfortunately this last option is not readily available anymore in monash, so i gotta ask around and see my chances of actually getting in one of Nick's class in la trobe uni. wish me luck guys...

the point that im trying to make is that, i am so thrilled and mesmerized and rejuvenated by attending a lecture of such brilliant and vibrant speaker. i can only wish more of my lecturer now are like that.

coming to lecture should trigger me to want to learn more and more, not the other way around.

ps: Thank you very much for giving me the motivation to study again Nick.
