Howdy!

You know whats interesting, Marcel (my tutor) is more like me than he is with the rest of the American system.
For 1, he speaks Brit Eng (although he is Spanish, was Spain once a French colony? i remembered learning of tt while i was in Spain. mmm anyway, i guess Brits n French r friends)
2. the metric system he is familiar with is the same as ours. here they use feet n all. so when i was frantically looking for Neufert's Arch data and wonder why in the world this bloody rich University doesn't have it, he immediately comprehended. in fact he uses the tt book too.
3. he told Randi off today how hearing inputs from various tutors is a good thing. I think we are so use to it in nus. yes we grumble but its a norm. here, or i m not sure if its only her....but she was very upset by him. she is very very soft. she told me today she forgot how to spell "October" cuz she always use "Oct"...Mama Mia.

So I guess i am glad we both of us came from the same 'place' or system to be more correct.

all i can say today is tt i really hope to learn from my peers during the rest of sem.
i seem to be able to learn so much from the upper yrs though...
they just seem to have seen more... i know cuz i spoke to some of them.

but the lectures here...ha ha...wow...after everyslide...sure got qns from the floor.

tt one u got to read n lect is only for asking qns...
