Heyyyyy all my mates! haha
a thousand apologies for my long leave of absence. been very very busy lately with all my school work and organizing my timetable for study. phew..
not to mention the dreaded assignments, at least one essay a week ! or two in fact! weeeeee
but i enjoy writing!
alrite maybe i should introduce my units, in case anyone is still clueless about what am i studying.
i'm creative industries (faculty) and my major is communication design.
this sem i'm taking

1) writing for creative industries
loads and loads of writing in an acadamic style, to develop competent prose for specific academic and creative industry applications
2) cultures and creativity
foster your ability to critically analyse and evaluate cultural practices and concepts, and to develop your own creative and critical skills. really interesting! have to do a creative journal containing all your creative works
3) marketing
Comprehend and conceptualise marketing principles, theories and functions and explain why marketing is important to contemporary organisations
4) business communication 1
improve the English communication skills of international students who are studying for business and professional communication diplomas. The unit encompasses skills development in reading, writing, listening and speaking. It provides strategies for understanding, composing and presenting information in an academic context.

i really like the writing unit *even though i had to write quite alot*
especially the latest one which is descriptive writing this week! quite interesting..
we did peer review in groups, giving feedback on each person's writing. our regular lecturer Josie was down this week from stomach flu. so two of her colleagues came down to help out.
i got a positive remarks for my writing
Joanne say i have a good feel for it and asked if i do creative writing before.
Really really felt good with the positive comments. but i know my writing still need alot of polishing.
cultures n creativity is cool too.. knowing various cultures and analysing them
marketing in intriguing, its really interesting how different corporations and companies's marketing strategy to influence the market.
business comm..haha
the lecturer tim is damn humourous and he knows my name because i always sit in front.
haha..
