My 4 Days during MPU (Mata Pelajaran Umum) Classes [Reflection 2]

On the first day, I was like "okay okay" for the MPU classes. However, it did not turn out as I was expected it to be, rather than that, it was exciting. During the first day of MPU, I was tasked on completing an essay regarding TGC (Taylor's Graduate Capabilities). It is based on what we had learn during our SAM (South Australian Matriculation) course, which helps me on preparing for university life. This essay were completed in groups, with at a range of 5-6 people. My group mates were very co-operative in completing this essay and we also had some fun on doing so, such as chit-chatting and joking around. It took us some time though due to minor arguments about the categories in TGC (which consists of thinking skills on so on). After completing the essay, we were asked to merge with another group, and compose a skit based on our 'Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat'. The other group was also very cooperative and we had fun together during the skit (I was the narrator though). After completing the skit, we were asked to continue on our essays (obviously I finished it before the others do), and then we were allowed to go back home. Before I went back home, I was asked to create this blog due to the requirements of the MPU classes, whereby this blog is also known as the E-Portfolio. On the second day, we were tasked to write our inspiration towards our goals. In my case, the person who inspired me was Albert Einstein, by inspiring me on creating physics theory which is very relevant to matter itself. The class itself was as interesting as before due to many friends who tried to chat about who inspired them to move on. As we discuss along the way, we get to strengthen our friendship bond which is also a good thing for future group outings. On the third day, we did our SMART goal setting and our Action Plan. SMART goal setting, consists of Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-Bound. In my case, my goal was to overcome my worries in university life in terms of education and social aspects. I was aware that university life is gonna be so different from college life (more pressure and time restriction), but that doesn't mean that I will give up on my studies as I want to pursue my dream. After we planned our SMART goal setting, like the first day, we were asked to write an essay for our Action Plan based on the SMART goal setting. Hence, it took me awhile to finish it but i did finish it. On the fourth day, we were tasked to write this, our reflection on MPU classes. Well, I gotta say, its' quite fun if you have friends around (while doing our work, we can chat which can be so-called multitasking). This essay allows me to express my opinions and reflections of the MPU classes so far, and if I am able to give a rating out of 10, I would say 8/10. The other 2 points missing was due to the duration of the MPU classes (no offense though). Everyone was tired as I entered class as they have to wake up early to reach school (especially for people who lived in long distances). After that, two ladies came in for our career test, which determines on which career was suitable for us (but that doesn't mean that it can determine our fate). For my case, my suitable career was to become a lawyer or a politician. I was like, "wow, haha", it kinda surprised me that I can take on such major jobs which determines people's future just by saying a few sentences. But, in order for me to pursue my dream, I would not want to do these but instead, I want to become an Engineer. I am not saying that the career test sucks but what I am trying to say that it can give suggestions and/or ideas about our future career. That way, we won't be walking on the wrong path (nobody wants that, even you too).
