Fiuhhh…finally I’m released from the bind of mid-term test.

I’m FREEE!!!!!  I’m FrEEEEE!!!!!

Mid-term test for this semester was so exhausting. First, there were 2 take-home exams which, of course, means that they were papers to be done. Anyway, though I had finished far from the due date, even before mid-term, but some tests was really bewildering me . For example, “Morphology” : The test was about token and type of both derivational and inflectional morphemes, while in the book there is no adequate information about that. But when I  scrutinize again my Morphology book, Oh God!!!! There is. But the explanation about those morphemes are within a black box that is unreadable due to the low printing quality that causes any words within the black box turns to black as well. Nice!!!!!!!!!

Oh anyway, I’d better tell about my paper. Actually, I wrote one of my papers half-hearted as I was a bit annoyed with some facts about that course. Well, just put it aside. There were 2 courses that required paper for the mid-term test i.e. Academic Writing and Australian Studies.

For Academic Writing, there were many conditions that must be fulfilled since it deals with the academic writing format. The students were only required to write a 5-page article, 1-page abstract in english, 1-page abstract in Bahasa Indonesia, and also 1-page or more for Works Cited. Oh yeah, this article must be written based on MLA style. Despite of MLA, but the margin set by the lecturer differs from MLA standard. Anyway it’s OK. continue reading…..

Today is within the third week of my campus activity. Alhamdulillah, I’m starting to adjust with my new subject, environment, and lecturers. Obviously, the first to second week in this semester was my toughest time as I had never experienced it before.

Starting from the lecturers who changed the schedules to nightmare. Oh God… what a PERFECT beginning. Actually, the main problem causing these situations was because me. I have not been able to accept everything that has happened. It was about when you have done everything as optimal as you can, as well as compared to others, but you did not get proper reward. Yeah, it was about that, and up to initial week, I have not been able to accept that.

Following that experience, I got the fact that one of my final assignments scored 65. Of course, it took me down. That score, for me, accused me as if I did plagiarism. I did not know why I got that score. Because I did not know, so there was the only thought which led me to that conclusion (plagiarism). However, I did not do any plagiarism. continue reading…..
