I'm writing right here right now, because I'm printing like 74 pages worth of lecture notes from my computer. And I seriously doubt my ink is able to last through it all. Takahina has printed tons of shit in the past before, but 74 pages is like the biggest challenge ever.
The 2nd printing challenge was a 65 page Suikoden 2 Guide from GameFAQs when I was a full class Otaku/Gamer. At that point of time, I was still a very fat Takahina in sec 2. Oily, fat, and full of shit.
In the previous Sems, Lecture notes never need to reach up to even 20 pages. A modest 10 pages was normally enough to clear a whole topic of let's say... Insurance. Now it's kinda revolutionary to have 74 pages. That's like 1 year worth of my Japanese notes in jargon english.
Not that it's bad though, I've seen the notes and it's very in-depth. In detail... in fact to the fact it's almost straight out from the textbook!! (Cher... you sure you didn't just... copy from the TB did you?)
Being in depth is good, having more information is good. No doubt it makes it more dry, but still it's in depth. Some of the relevant points are in point forms, which is kinda the way... Takahina would like to study. After all, I don't like to study straight from Power Points, Powerpoints are meant to be used for presentation, not study. (Get it you poly students/JC students!?!? No more faggot style of studying...)
But then again, now comes the next question...
Why do we go to school then since the notes are so in depth? I would like to suggest though, this is outrightly spoonfeeding to students, and you lecturers just stand there and tell us which point is more important, get it in and make an effort to like write something down.
For powerpoint lecture notes, we go to school with a blur head, cause power points NEVER FREAKING MAKE SENSE. NEVER.
I mean, never in your life, would squarish boxes with just a few words scribbled inside makes sense. If the powerpoint boxes have like paragraphs in it for the wrong reason, it's not powerpoint. It's a summarised blogpost.
The thing about powerpoint which people seemingly gets a wrong idea, is that it should have never been allowed for printing. It's supposed to aid in presentation, that's all. 1 slide, should have been just like:
Slide 1: "Hello"
Slide 2: "Point 1"
Slide 3: "I don't make sense by myself, so stop looking at me and try to make sense outta me, listen to the lecturer you numbskull."
~~~
I'm sad to say, but I print powerpoint notes, and probably will still do, because there's no better way to get things down.
One sad thing of powerpoints is that, it puts points across nicely without details, (if not called powerPOINTS for fuck?), but the one presenting it, must know his shit to explain these details.
If I must say, the previous sem's lecture of MCS (Manage Client Services A.K.A Make Clients Sexcited) notes were pretty well done. The points itself doesn't make sense, so sitting down and listening to the lecturer will matter. And lines are beside the boxes in the notes given for you to write shit down. (Although in the end I just draw swords in them)
The best thing is, the notes are FREE. As quoted from Ms Agnes Ho,
"Free stuff always taste the best."
And so they do.
The thing that lecturers should take note and POINTS from Takahina.
1. Know your shit, and know how to present. Don't freaking bore your students. Act like a clown if you have to.
2. Don't spoonfeed your students with your given notes, it should miss details here and there to punish the unwise and sufferables that doesn't listen to you.
3. Always listen to Takahina.
Anyways, printing's done. I love Canon Printers they are damn fast, and you may say I'm wasting paper printing 74 pages. But the papers are stolen from my unit when I ord. Before I ord I told my sir,
"Sir, our printing paper not enough I go indent more ar."
Sir, "Ok ok... go do it. Wah not bad ah quite initiative."
Me, "Of course sir. ;) Gonna ORD soon le ma, should do something."
What Sir doesn't know is that I had already brought home few boxes of printing paper, thats why paper no enough.
Who says NS is ALWAYS bad. There have their good times. :p
