Journey to become a Dietitian: First Semester

The title sounds weird for me
It supposed to be Journey to become a Dietitian in UPM.
But it will sounds more weird with the UPM there.

Ok , cut the crap!

Basically, you learn ALMOST NOTHING related to your future career in the first semester.
You are given a list of subjects that you ought to take in 4 years and you must follow what is written above. This subject for this year and this sem, that subject for another sem.

So, for the 1st year and the 1st semester, we need to take 6+1 (cocurriculum) subjects:
COURSE CODE
COURSE NAME
COURSES STATUS
LEC GROUP
CREDIT HOUR
ACT2112
INTRODUCTORY ACCOUNTING
YW
8
4
MGM3180
BASIC ENTREPRENEURSHIP
YW
8
3
PKK3200
PRINCIPLES OF HUMAN NUTRITION
YW
1
3
PRT2008
AGRICULTURE AND MAN
YW
32
2
QKK2101
COMMUNITY SERVICE
EL
13
1
SKP2101
MALAYSIAN NATIONHOOD
YW
20
3
SKP2203
ISLAMIC CIVILIZATION AND ASIAN CIVILIZATION
YW
1
2

Practically all subjects are useless except for Principles of Human Nutrition.
And perhaps the knowledge for accounting can be useful in the future.
The others are just crap...crap and CRAP!!

The University and the government thinks that you are too YOUNG and you have too MUCH TIME and therefore they want you to WASTE 1 semester or to be more precise, is actually 1 whole year for the crap thingy. (We're taking 3 more crap subjects for the next sem and few more in the following sems).
In another word, they are afraid that you will go out earlier and contribute to the increase number of jobless university graduates in Malaysia.
Ok, I know this point is not valid enough, but somehow it is acceptable.
*Complaint finished.* =.=

So, that's what a 'Dietitian' will do in the first semester.
You are actually very FREE compared to other courses.
The heavy ones, I guess is real heavy de, will be coming very soon, starting from the second year.
Therefore, play and enjoy as much as you can for the first year, that's what my seniors told us.

And this time, I'm really really relax, I am surprised that I can be so relax, it is just not me.
I didn't study consistently, didn't concentrate during lecture, didn't do homework, even during exam also I don't really study. I just can't treat my exam as serious as last time, I tell myself to get serious and study seriously, but somehow I can't get rid of the 'relax' feeling. ><
So, the consequences is apparent, didn't study properly=can't get a 'proper' result.

I wish that it won't happen to me again next semester.
I must always remind myself that I do everything for one purpose, that is to Honour God.
I must be serious as I am responsible to God, I need to answer to Him in the future.

That's all for my first semester
All the best for the next semester, to everyone. =)
