2005 Winter Term
blah..long time no update..again....dunno why, blogging doesn't interest me as much as before now.
Anyways, I guess I should summarize what i'm taking this term and how they are so far..so here it goes!
ANA300Y- Human Anatomy and Histology
After taking ANA301 (Embryology) last year, anatomy definately takes on a new interest in me. I sacrificed other half year course and free fridays for this full year course. So it better be good. Heard lots and lots of good stuff about it. So far it's pretty good. The self directed labs arn't that bad either. Materials are definately interesting, and I'm glad it's not cell biology. Hopefully the bellringers and the written exams are good tho :) Need good marks this year!
ZOO328H- Developmental Biology I
Some similarities with Embryology class. Course is pretty good so far, except for the two German (?) profs. "Fork Embryos" = Frog embryos. The labs suck. Only because I can't dissect anything through a microscope!! Freakin. Not looking forward to the group presentation either.
ZOO375- Environmental Factors
The prof's teaching style is definately interesting. All he does is just talk and talk and talk. No slides, no writings. Talk talk talk, story time, talk talk talk. Sometimes it can make the 3 hour night lecture a big long bore. At least now he finished all his lecture materials. After the midterm next week, the rest of the term will all be taught by students in class. Where each student has to do a seminar on a topic of our choosing. The final exam will based on those seminar. Heard it's gonna be tough though..ugh.
GGR343- The Changing Geographies of China
Definately one of my fav courses so far. The prof is also one of my fav. I mean come on! She can speak and read Chinese!!!! (She's caucasian)! And a course on a subject that i can relate to definately helps. Too bad she's not gonna talk anything about Taiwan tho.
GGR451- Health and Place
This course is not bad. No exams! woot! 4 essays tho. Boo. Basically a medical/health geography course. Prof is awesome.
JFG475- Emergency Response System Planning
Joint course between forestry and geography. So must of the emergency response planning will be on forest fire prevention and how to predict forest fires using math and stats formulas. The math is fairly easy. The materials are okay. It would be nice if the prof can talk more about other emergency response system like ambulance and firetrucks.
All in all, this is probably the best course selections thru out my uni career. Definately helps that now I'm actually interested in them. I don't even really feel the urge of skipping!!! Definately a good sign. Havn't skipped yet!! Already more than a month in. New record! Woot! Must aim for 4.o this year. Go me!
okay, i'm done...
GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
