Computer Systems class start
Just came back from class not long.I find computer systems more towards the system side , true to its name.There are some new stuff and revision of binary , hexa and octa .The fetch and execution cycle kinda reminds of the stuff we learnt in csc about calc machine.Will try to get familiarized with binary and hexa because they will be used frequently according to my lecturer.
Speaking about my lecturer , he looks around his late 20s , maybe early 30s.We thought Dr Lye is an old man , really shocked to see him as our lecturer.He seem kinda friendly and cracked some cold jokes.The best part is that he is willing to teach and share.
Darrell received his NIE offer letter a few weeks back.He is at a dilemma whether to accept or not.The bad thing about it is that they are offering him a diploma and not degree.The chance of getting transfered from their diploma to degree is not high but possible.Since the diploma takes 2 yrs already , what if he doesn't make it ? He also seems to be not doing well in school.I think its his call , but I still find it risky to sign a bond with nie like that.Especially since his degree will not be confirmed.
I realised that intelligence plays a huge part in studies , hardwork can only get you this far.Oh well .. be content with my abilities and what I have :)
