went for consultation with 2 professors today. went to see prof tay 1st at 1030am in the morning. was really demoralized and have totally no cofidence at all in this module (mechanics of thin-walled structures) yest. couldnt do any of the questions of past year papers at all and was so afraid yest that i may fail this module. after consultation this morning, felt more confident now and think that i can now be able to start and write something as compared to totally unable to write anything at all. next up was prof lee with part 2 of the module compressible & unsteady flow. same thing, initially i couldnt understand any of the pressure transients, C+ and C- characteristic lines, the pumps and various surge protection devices. just whacked the past year paper with any answers that i think is what the question is asking. after yest's afternoon and this afternoon consultation with prof lee, i finally understood about 70-85% of the 2nd part of the module. what i need to do now is to remember all the various equations very well, ie, MEMORISE them. there's really a whole lot to rem and instead of memorising them just now, i went out in the evening to collect some money and just came back not long ago, a whole 6.5 hours spent outside instead of studying. sigh. i feel so guilty and hate myself now. tomorrow.. i promise.. tomorrow will be a whole day of hard memorising of equations etc and practising of past year papers. yes i will. definitely. trusting in the Lord to get my B for both modules. =) oh, to my blog readers, do visit the link on the left that says "Now that's GOD". its a really nice and touching site. do visit it, whether you are a believer or not. take care and God bless..
