So here's a round-up on what I've been doing today:
8.30 am - Left for uni to attend a Lab Induction. Arrived at the computer lab a little too early. So, waited outside the lab, browsing through bulletin boards around the corner.
9.00 am - A few students started to arrive, mostly guys ( I should have known by now that the ratio between boys and girls in the course I'm pursuing is 6:1). Chatted with a few of them and realised that some guys are just hard to approach. But then again, it is sort of the first week of orientation. So, needless to say, that often happen.
9.30 am - Lab Induction began. Gaya, the lecturer in-charge of this program, gave us an introduction on the systems we are required to use throughout our course at uni. He is friendly and approachable but I guess the pace of this program made things boring after a while.
12.30 pm - Lunch break for us after 3 hours fumbling on the computer.
1.30 pm - Got ready for the next session, UNIX survival guide. Arrived there only to realise that this session is a self-learning program. So, we were given handbooks and were required to complete each task in the book whilst we were still reading the manual...Lol!
4.15 pm - After almost another 3 hours in front of the computer, we decided to call it a day. My eyes were hurt from straining too much and my back has stiffen from keeping upright too long in front of the computer. This is just my first day of my course. I'll need to get use to this environment if I plan to be a full-fledge programmer in the years to come...
4.40 pm - Arrived home and went straight to get some nap.
This was how I spent my first day as a Computer Science student.
