Simple and to the point.

Just had this thought about teaching/learning.
As long as someone is open-minded, there should always be a way of explain a concept, however complicated it is, in a form that is easily digestible. So, what are the implications? A “teacher” willing to vary his approach and ways of repackaging his thoughts and a willing “pupil” who yearns for the knowledge and trying hard to comprehend what is at hand.
My computer went up in smoke – literally – last night. It was definitely the first time I had seen smoke coming out of a computer case, ever! So those stories are true after all…
Have not had the time to investigate the problem yet due to my exam preparations. I guess the upside to all this is: an early Christmas present!?!? 😉
Taking some time out from my cramming (yes, cramming is the right word here, a really rare thing for me, I must admit…) for tomorrow’s exam. Happened to read this amusing account of the vagaries and potential ups and downs of online dating agencies! Somehow it seems comforting that conventional values still hold true in real life, even if the internet does provide a new avenue for meeting people.
I suppose this can be called “divine inspiration”!? Seems to have come at a very appropriate time, with a difficult exam looming ahead (Tuesday) for me and my Dip FM classmates.
“Be of good cheer. Do not think of today’s failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find joy in overcoming obstacles. Remember, no effort that we make to attain something beautiful is ever lost.”
Helen Keller, 1880-1968
