This month is the end of the semester and the end of a year. I always surprised how fast the time passes. Next week is dead week, but it likes the beginning of the semester. I still remember what happened on the first classes. In the first ENGR team meeting, we said we don't like this class and hope we can survive from it. Now we finished our project and we did good job in the final presentation and team exam. Next week is time to say goodbye, since there will be many people who are in my classes right now that I won't see once the semester ends. At the same time, I must work hard in the last week to do the review because I almost forget what I learnt in the first lecture. It's too bad. I have three final exams, but I just begin to review chemistry. It's a long way to go. I hope I can good grades in the final so that I can get A.
Most people will go home and spend the break with families. Unfortunately, I have to stay in the dorm during the winter break. It's a good news for me that Purdue Village won't closed during the winter break. This is the first time I can't stay with my family when the New Year is coming. I'm sure I will miss them. There are some friends won't go home too. We can hold a party to celebrate the New Year. I hope we can have a wonderful party. We (me and my friends) plan to visit Chicago and New York. We can stay with other friends in New York and they can be our tourist guides. The trip makes the boring winter break seemed better. I can't wait for it!
I agree with you Liang. Time has absolutely flown by at Purdue. It seems like only yesterday that I left home to come to Purdue, and BGR feels like it happened only hours ago. I feel like I've been doing a good job in most of my classes, and I feel like I only need to review some stuff before the final and I'll end up with an A. However, I do concur that there's some stuff from the beginning of the year that has just leaked out of my head. And I am also glad to be finally done with ENGR131!
ReplyDeleteI am fortunate enough to be going home for winter break, but I understand your situation completely. I also have some friends who are in the same boat as you, and they too are feeling homesick with everyone makings plans to stay with their families over break. However, they too have made plans to go and see Chicago and New York. I live half an hour away from New York, so I know from personal experience that it is a great city with so many things to do. I guarantee you will have a great time!
Liang, I too remember our first engineering meeting. We also talked about how useless and boring ENGR 131 is. However, I feel like there must be some reason behind Purdue making us take that course. It must have instilled some skill in us (even though I have still not managed to figure out what that skill is). Moving on, I don’t think winter break is going to be too bad for you! I know it is difficult staying away from family when the rest of the student body goes home and visits them. I felt that when we had our thanksgiving break. It was hard watching everyone head back home. However, you say that you plan to make a trip to Chicago and New York! That is great! I have been to both places and they are both beyond amazing! Moreover, since you will be with your friends, I ensure you that you will have the time of your life! Hope you have a great winter break and an awesome upcoming semester! Happy Holidays ENGL 106
