The Types of Classes That I Detest

“Oh my god!!!! Today got ABC class…… I do not like that lecture. That person again…… I not like have the classes with him/her.” I believe that everyone must have the classes that are detest because of some reason. Of course, I am not be except too. I also have some type of classes that I detest, because of class with bad lecture, bad surrounding, and bad timing.



I do not like the classes that have the bad lecture, because some lectures have the bad teaching skill. For example, when the lectures teaching they speak very fast without consider the students and cause the students cannot catch up and cannot understand what are they teach. Student will very confuse and until them cannot solve their own equation. Furthermore, some lectures that have the bad attitude also make me detest the classes. For instance, some lectures always late to the class and even cancel the class with private reason. This may cause the student cannot catch up the syllabus and have not enough time have the preparation for the exam. Some of the lectures that have the bad-temper also cause me detest the class, because the lecture will feels annoyed anytime and the students will feel afraid and very stress during the class.


Moreover, the other reason is the class with bad surrounding. For example, the bad classmates always make me detest the class because they are very noisy during class and always disturb other. In the other hand, some classmate who is playful, rowdy, and rebellious also make a lot of trouble for the lecture and cause the class cannot be continue. In addition, the classroom that with bad air-con, the light was dim, uncomfortable chairs and tables make the student cannot concentrate during the class. The worst classroom is we can found the chewing gum stuck on or under the table, it was very dirty and unhygienic!!!!


Other than that, the classes with bad timing always make me detest the class. A classic example, the consecutive classes that up to 6 hours without any long term break always cause the student cannot concentrate during the class, because they are totally exhausted and does not have any more energy to continue the lesson. Furthermore, the classes that held at 2 p.m. also not a good timing for study, because the student just eat and feel tired after lunch they have no spirit to study.


In conclusion, a good learning condition is very important to a student, because the student will be more concentrate on study. Indirectly, the student will perform well in the exam. So, class with a good lecture, classroom with the best facility and good timing should consider for the students.

How to stay awake in class?

Nowadays, students have a lot of homework and assignment to do. But they have not enough time to complete it, because they have a lot of fun and they spend more time on entertainment and sometime also cause them doze off during the class and made lecture angry. So, to stay awake in class we need to sleep early every night, do preparations before the lecture class and have a balance diet.


First of all, students cannot burn the midnight oil at last minute to complete the homework or assignment, because it will affected the students have not enough sleep and cause the student cannot pay attention to the class. So, to prevent these problem students should finish the homework or assignment before the due date and sleep early so that they have enough rest and stay awake in class.


In addition, students also need to do preparation before the class. During the preparation student will have some idea with the new topic, and when the teacher teaching student can more easily understanding what are teacher teach. Therefore, student will pay more attention, not feel boring and can stay awake in class. Student also can have a break to take a snap and go to washroom wash the face and continue the lesson, it also can help the student have more vitality.


Beside the above two suggestions, students also need a balance diet because a balance diet can let the student have enough vitamins and nutrition. For example, every student should take their breakfast before go to school because by eating breakfast can let the brain have enough provider of blood and let the brain function very well and student can sober during the class. Have a balance diet also can help stronger the body immune system and prevent from sick.


In conclusion, by sleep early every night, do preparations before the lecture class and have a balance diet student can stay awake in class. Students also need to reduce their time for entertainment and they should more focus to study so that they can get the best result when they graduate.


My life in MMU

How is the life of university student? Is it hard to adapt the new environment or have a lot of stress? I was curious about this question. Until the day I steps in MMU…… it was totally different. My life in MMU was colorful and varied in postures because I have a lot of friend, learn the new subject, and become more independent.



During the first day I went to the class, I was very unfamiliar to everyone in my class and feel very scared to communicate with them. During the introduction section I feel more comfortable and starts try to make friend with the other. Everyone in the class was very friendly and helpful and I like to be friend with them. In MMU have a lot of international students (IS); many of them come from different country. Definitely, in my class also have the IS, but my classmate and I against some problem because sometime we do not know what are they talking about and sometime cause some misunderstanding happen. I think we need some time to accommodate with their special pronunciation.


In the other hand, in my course I need to study many new subject such as accounting and economic. These two subjects were very new for me and always make me confusing, because in high school I never study about this. Luckily, my roommate has the basic of accounting so ask for advice from her. We always do the homework together and they also help me a lot when I face some problem.


Besides that, after I come to MMU to continue my study I become more independent. Because at here I need to do everything with myself, cook and wash clothes myself without mother help. In school I also need to do everything, not like high school everything was plan and arrange by the teacher for us. Such as we need go to internet survey the information to complete the assignment.


My life in MMU consists of a lot of fun and there still have many novelty things waiting for me to find out, so I need to try very hard to continue my study so that I will not disappointed my mother.
