AY2022/2023 Y4S1 Module Reviews

I have been putting this off for awhile and have been writing this over the span of a few weeks truthfully maybe even a month. I have no idea what is it in this semester but i get tired just from doing absolutely nothing. We already knew but the transition from work back to school wasnt easy at least for me couldnt remember some of the coding stuff i used to have at my fingertips. But i guess there was enough mods for me to practice them over so it didnt take too long for me to get back on my feet. Feels so surreal that its finally my last modreg season actually....

Review

honestly LAJ has been very exciting for me personally if not one of the most fun moments ive had in nus. sure 1 sem is barely enough for you to ground yourself in the fundamentals of a language and of course interest far supersedes any kind of effort u put in because it is not the hours u put into it that count, but rather the passive picking up of things as u go along. sounds cheesy as hell that is probably true. anyways laj has been nothign short of enjoyable despite the really tight timeline plus very consistent schedule of always being on the grind for submissions. the workload really IS a lot and its very time consuming so i have to think hard if i really want to take this next sem. honestly as someone whos been into this hellhole for awhile, learning it formally is still really different from anything ive been doing on my own (watchign etc).... like i didnt know i still have so much i dont know??? ok tbf i came in with no grammar knowledge other than the basic の and と that any seasoned otaku would know so i struggled Hard.. but i think the experience of learning with new friends really ive made eased it in so much for me... i love it.. 1000/10 would recommend if ur already into the culture idt u have anything to lose?? idt i did well throughout tbh as in weekly quizes ive got a lot of 6/10s but on days where i studied 30 mins before the class i get 9/10 so do what u got to do ig. my term test perf wasnt very good either so im not getting my hopes up despite me taking this module with the intentions to bring my gpa up.

for the drill every week theres 1 lecture, 2 tutorials. the lecture goes through one chapter of the minna textbook which includes both a set of vocabulary and some grammar rules. for tut A u got to hand in the kanji homework and theres a vocab quiz too in class that u need to prep before hand. tut A also goes through renshuu C-1 and C-2 dialogues usually. And every sun there are prep quizes for both vocab and kanji due, this preps u for the in class quiz can retake as many times to perfect ur score. for tut B u got to hand in the hyoujun mondaishuu (physical) for the previous weeks lecture and they go through more speech patterns covered in renshuu C-3 usually. Renshuu C is where u find the dialogues that you will need again for the oral interview basically memory work. Oral interview pairs u with a classmate and u guys take turns to talk, what is tested is the same as renshuu C just under different context/setting. sometimes theres additional hw to submit for shadowing (recording urself repeating the dialogue right after a recorded dialogue), writing (short compo) and reading (comprehension). When its nearing term tests, u will get a listening quiz the week before tt iirc the stuff are said only ONCE so if u zone out then byebye. The term test itself also has a listening component which is basically the same drill again for god knows why. other than that we had this online exchange session pretty fun with other jp uni students zoom n chat kind of thing then a presentation on ur exchange in w13. Pretty fun time passes too fast in laj honestly it made my week go by too fast (spend too much time doing jp).

Review

Took this as a ue just for the sake of a ue.. i saw the reviews saying its essay based sparks flew jk i think its like any other ge tbh the lectures go through consumption as viewed from the various disciplines, assumptions et cetera et cetera its like a content kind of mod? i skipped most of the later half of the lectures because my schedule was really so bad i needed more time for my other mods priorities right and i didnt do any of the readings theres just too much and im not that much of a reader i know.. attention span lasts for at msot 5s and these readings are like 30 pages on average long some weeks theres 2 readings i simply cant wiht the reading.. other than that u kind of just need to know what they are covering in the lectures so i should be safe..crossing my fingers.... tutorial wise its kind of seminar style? the tutor is able to talk a lot out of nothing sometimes which amazes me...its very nothing module idh a better word low effort ish? just sometimes we need to present and stuff in our groups for the tutorials and the final presentation on our location of research and findings..class part alright... essay is some reflection paper on what has been taught i think it wsa week 4/5 ish then group project is any location of your choice to study on the different perspectives of consumption and a bit of research u come up with this academic paper (tutor is very niao about the citation style and stuff so please be careful) then the original written finals by some reason i dont rmb became a take home final essay which is better for me since more time (not really for me cause AFA LOL) anyways shitted out the paper a day before submissions and still alive so...

Individual Component Consultation Participation 25% Weekly logs 10% Group Component Presentations + Project deliverables 50% Client Satisfaction 15%

Note: The score for the teamwork component of your grade will be normalised based on your contribution to the team, which will be determined via a peer evaluation process and a client satisfaction survey at the mid/end of the semester

Schedule

Lectures for this mod only happened once during the start of the sem, on nusmods its a 3h long one but dw that only will occur just once. Following weeks will be a 30min consult that is set at the convenience of the group and the prof/TA can be held on another day as well really up to you. So at the start there was about 20 (?) projects on the portal they will brief you during that initial lecture and you can go in to look at the descriptions of the deliverables if it aligns with your groups interest. You bid for them by ranking the 20 projects and the assignment of groups to their projects is on fcfs basis (other than by rank) so please manage the time for bidding well if you want to get the project of your choice. Yeah and then you get to exchange contacts with your company etc to for an introduction of the expected work proper. After that you kind of really just liaise back and forth with your company on the submission, and every week the profs will check in with you on your progress, any doubts/challenges etc etc basically a slot to update on your work. There is a weekly log submission too due Fri 12pm where u outline your contributions in a doc to be submitted. Other than that for the presentations, there is an interim one nearing recess week and a final one in week 13. Interim was online/physical at your choice even though they did not make it very clear and finals is definitely physical with your project sponsors as well. Tip is to make sure u choose projects that you definitely have stuff to talk about.... if its too easy its a bit hard to make your project and value of work delivered look substantial enough....

Review

This actually is still a pretty interesting module even up till now but i especially rmb telling another friend how the content isnt dry like the other modules well till i was proven wrong with the experiment design flashbacks to ger1000 but overall i think its still pretty interesting the prof also is very engaging as in he talks in a way that captures your attention? or at the very least isnt very monotonous and he does put in the effort to come up with very relevant analogies amidst all the inevitably dry content Oh the reason why i was impressed was i actually finally understand?? the source material?? like snaps fingers enlightenment kind of thing???? hes actually really good at conveying the material without making it seem like the daunting insurmountable mountain... the first few weeks are fine though they ease u in wiht all the motivations behind efforts to improve seo ranking and the google ranking updates which are very interesting to learn about.. the ranking algo and ml parts are towards the end after week 7 and things start to get a bit haywire because its suddenly knee dip into matrices (after 3 years) and stuff solving eigenvectors (i thought we moved on from maths) </3 then towards the end the usual ml recap all over again this is good since most bt mods does a ml refresher over the models and stuff again so its a good recap or even does a good job introducing for those who are touchnig these for their first time.

The quizes kind of didnt happen until after week 7 iirc theres only 2 for our sem its a 5 mcq luminus quiz kind of thing and its all ctrl-f-able open book so try to get 5/5 for these. The homework assignments are also more congregated towards the second half of the sem so just manage your time well and expect these to take up some keyword some of your time. There are 4 of those in total, the first is a simple writeup pretty much no biggie then the remaining 3 are coding assignments but most of it u would have the pseudocode to do the same he explains it in lectures then u just kind of code it out the final one being more ml driven so if you’ve done ml before u wont struggle much anyway. Else can just google the source code its always p much the same plug and pull easy game. The finals though...........

(minute of silence)

its a written paper so u kind of sit down for 2h doing the problems for the final week (w13) the prof will go through finals questions from previous sems if u revised it then ur gtg u can expect about the same. But i didnt plan my time well plus confused by the requirements (choose all that apply for mcqs) and the answer fields being in a table of boxes from q1 to 20 do i really put e.g. a,b,c within one box for one question?? and the option d is a whole ‘all above’ really got me second guessing myself until idk anymore if i rmb correctly the format was 20 MCQs, 4 short answer questions (not really short but compared to the longer ones behind), 1 long ass question with many subparts that tests computation i.e. stats stuff and the matrices stuff

Anyways grades please be nice to me crying i lost too many marks because id dint have the time (for the first time if im being honest) Theres also one group project but no news from the prof until very late into the sem maybe week 8? 9? they had to finalise some sutff like if our blogs were indexed (most of it was not) so it became a project plan write up kind of thing how u plan to conduct the experiment to test out whether changing up some things affect the seo ranking instead of actually executing it out (profs original intention) might differ next sem tell me about it then

This is a sem 1 only mod and i think u should definitely take this up if the module title intrigues you because out of all the bt mods ive taken most barely even correspond to the module title T_T but this one surprisingly does a good job at it as for workload wise i think its pretty manageable just got to expect a little more than nothing in the later half of the sem

Review

This is one of the more popular pes because it coincides for a few specs or sth im sure its also why i thought this should be one of the more useful ones granted it aligns for more than 1 spec.. Anyway what im saying is that most bza students would have taken this mod. And sure enough i think the prof this sem wang qh did a really good job covering this mod cant say the same for zhao yl for last sem.. u all really.. Anyways once again like many bt mods its a very ML focused one so u get to explore the various ML models if you like doing that. The prof also provide source codes so its very helpful when you need to refer in future and stuff. Nothing much to say ba its quite good theres class part so maybe half way through the lecture she will put up the attendance gforms then u fill it in on the spot usually during the break i.e. 1h 10m into the lecture (she sets alarm for this to make sure she doesnt go over v cute) Other than that theres 2 tests (quizzes) held on examplify usually max max 30 mcq but these mcq are tricky as hell sometimes with 5/6 options so really ganbare. For the assignments its coding based and also very structured with guidelines in the ipynb plus u got all the source code so no problem ba mb just 1/2 question will be q hard but other than that no biggie ive always been the last minute so maybe allocate about a week should be enough. Then theres also a project that you can work on throughout the sem, yes as you learn more ml models through the week the problem statement is really up to you and your group and how u want to achieve it also very open ended... (jsut like the BT4221 i took) except u already know theres this project at the start of the sem i.e. more time to work on it unlike bt4221....... just need to submit project proposal at the start of the sem then ur report findings, codes and stuff at the end with a presentation for proposal (cancelled for us due to no time) and a presentation in w13 (can be 1/2 person presenting for the group) there will be a lot fo groups presenting and then we have a gforms to rate their projects as part of the evaluation no finals for this (yay) bc she thinks the doing is more importatn (getting down to prep the data, actual model implementation basically the practical stuff compared to content content stuff (WHICH SHOULD BE THE WAY TO GOOO) very practically speaking all the theory is all google-able whether u can do it is something else entirely

The For Honor team have announced their plans for next year, so to save people from having to search for their statement, I'm going to put it here so you can see what they're planning:

Hey Warriors,

We know that you have been waiting patiently to know what’s going on for next year in For Honor. We are excited to announce, today, what we have planned for Year 4: The Year of Reckoning.

From launch three years ago to For Honor today, we are incredibly proud in the progress the game has made, none of which would have been possible without the unique relationship that we’ve built together with you, our players.

Year 4 is about learning and building upon what we have experienced together in these past 3 years. Let’s keep the party going!

We’ll be able to share more details in January 2020 but here is an overview of what’s in store.

Year 4 – The Year of Reckoning

The Year of Reckoning is a turning point in For Honor’s history. The great war that has been raging over the past years takes an unexpected turn. The earth has quietened down, but new leaders arise and warriors across all factions need to decide what they are really fighting for.

Four Unique Seasons and Two New Heroes Joining the Fight

Like Year 3, Year 4 will have four new Seasons, each with its own theme, rewards, and activities.

Two new faces will arise during the Year of Reckoning. One Hero will be released during Year4, Season 2, and the other during Year 4, Season 4. Their arrival will coincide with the storyline, as well as the events of the Year and its seasons. We can’t wait to find out which side you choose!

You will be able to purchase them upon release or unlock the new Heroes with steel as usual.

Seasonal Progression Update: Battle Pass in, Year Pass out

Starting with Year 4, Season 1, we will be introducing a new reward system with the For Honor Battle Pass.

In the past, rewards relied solely upon random drops after matches and scavenger crates, which gave little visibility on the items you were able to unlock.

Now you will have clear objectives throughout the 100 tiers within the Battle Pass where you will be able to unlock items through gameplay. The battle pass will be limited to character customization items and consumables meaning that you do not need to purchase it to have access to the two new heroes coming during the year.

The For Honor Battle Pass will consist on a Free pass and a Premium pass, with a shared progression across the different tiers and resetting with each new Season.

Everyone will have access to the Free pass and its rewards. In the Free pass, you can unlock items such as ornaments, steel, color swatches, champion status, embossings, and more.

Owners of the Premium passes will have access to unique customization rewards such as new signatures, new weapons, new executions, new effects, and more.

Both free and premium passes will have rewards for all heroes.

It was also important for us to make the Premium pass an addition to, and not a substitute for, the existing means of getting content in the game. Thus, we will be keeping original options for players with new content of the week, sales, and scavenger crates /drops at the end of the matches to get customizations items.

We will have more details to share on the Y4S1 Battle Pass and the season itself in January 2020.

Fight - Core Experience

With 26 characters in the current roster and two new faces joining the fight in Year 4, balancing remains a top priority for us. This includes hero balancing, of course, but also game mode balancing.

A major step toward strengthening our process of balancing has been the introduction of Testing Grounds.

For Year 4, you can expect this tool to have a big role in how the dev team continues to bring changes to the game. The focus of the year remains on increasing character viability, allowing for a wider range in team composition at a higher level of play, and continue to improve offense to enhance the core gameplay of For Honor on a more general level.

Competitive

The competitive nature of For Honor has been part of the experience since the get-go. One of the main reasons why the competitive scene has continued to grow over the years is thanks to you guys who have supported it at a grass roots level. Year 3 was the first step in better supporting the tournament/competitive scene of For Honor, with more visibility on community tournaments, in-game prizing, but most importantly the introduction of the spectator mode.

The competitive scene is extremely important to us as it is to you. It helps us grow the community and is ultimately a compass in shaping the experience of the game. The competitive scene is a pillar which we intend to expand on in Year 4 with a new all-access competitive program set to launch.

More details will be shared soon.

More to Come

We will expand on all of these elements in January as we get closer to launch of the Year of Reckoning, we are really excited for what this year has to offer!

Lastly, we want to thank you for all the creativity that you guys have shown us over the past 3 years. Whether it be cosplays, fan-fiction, memes, videos, and fan art; we felt inspired for Year 4.

That is why we will be working with renowned artists for each season’s iconic image, starting with the Year 4 image below, made by the American illustrator AJ Frena. Representing the Year of Reckoning, we are proud to be able to share her piece of art with you all today and cannot wait to share more details later in January for what’s to come in For Honor.

Oh! And one last thing… new armors are coming this year.

Happy Holidays Warriors,

For Honor Dev Team

Humdrum things

Let me just start out by stating how much I miss porn on tumblr.

I had a tumblr account once (It still exists somewhere since I had to use my secondary email address to create this account) and tried using it as a diary but failed to follow through. Then I moved to blogspot (Another account I still have) but I just didn’t have the will to carry it through (It seems I never do).

Having been all alone for the past month and a half (and half a month left to go [Given they don’t extend the MCO]) I’ve been having deep thoughts quite often... well, as often as I’m not binge watching my Thailand BL dramas. Just half an hour ago I was staring into the mirror and started thinking about my future and the past. Thinking of how drab my life has been, and how it’s going to continue being drab until the foreseeable future.

“If I am to die young, I’m sure to regret the way I’ve lived my life” Le moi

I am eternally grateful for the life I was born into, but I’m starting to realise the truth behind the phrase “money cannot buy you happiness”. I’ve shopped and shopped and yet whenever the thought of my future comes to mind, this negative emotion just comes flooding in and it leaves me wide-eyed and mouth wide open.

Y4S1 - There was a course called Chemical Process & Optimisation I took the previous semester. In chapter 2 there was this thing called “Synthesis of a Process Tree”. In lament terms, it is the identification of various pathways to a single objective. What I came to realise is that life is exactly like a synthesis tree.

As you grow older, less options are available to you due to past choices you’ve made as you grew up. Well, in my case, choices that were made for me, or rather, choices that were given to me.

Limited choices, obviously.

It finally hit me that I don’t know what I’m going to do with my life. I’m a fourth year chemical engineering student, set to graduate next year April. I’ve worked in retail for five (5) years, and enrolled in two (2) internships while studying chemical engineering: First as a process engineer and the second as a process safety engineer. I’ve always made it clear of my dislike working in an office, having to see the same faces day in and day out, but then again, the reason I agreed to continue my studies and quit retail was because I got bored of retail life.

So, question is:

What do I want?

I know my life is boring. I’ve accepted this as a fact. Yet, there’s nothing I can do to change this, is there? I feel so powerless, demotivated even. Especially after hearing the line “You need to stop wasting your time and decide what you want to do with your life” from a series I’m currently binging. Easier said than done I would retaliate.

Then again, if we keep on worrying over the future, how would we live in the present. Things are not yet set in stones, so let us pray and hope my life gets the plot twists it so desperately needs.

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege’s fourth year has been officially announced, with the first part dropping in the next month or so. We’ll be getting our first glance at the new operators soon, but we figured we’d add everything we know about the new year to our guide. For those new to our coverage, there’s also some important things to know when first starting out, as well as specifics for playing as the attacking team or defending team, and more in-depth stuff on each operator and the specific maps being added as the game continues its long run.

My top fav moments of Y4S2

Social Innovation

That class was shit. I honestly cannot believe the amount of shit that I gave for this class - hint: it was close to 0. For the first time in four years, I did not proofread a single report - I literally couldn’t care less. Oh and also, our individual assignments? Two things happened:

1. Prof told me to redo my paper because he wasn’t convinced that my paper was about a social innovation, he thought that it was more of a technological innovation. Okay look, if you were to tell Y3 Sya this right, she wouldve done it ASAP. And prof was really nice about it - he said that he really wanted to give me an A for my paper but I just had to make it more convincing. He gave me a month to send him a short write up to argue that it was in fact a social inno BUT guess what, I didn’t do it cos I was busy traveling HAHA

2. I submitted my 25% assignment all the way from Korea and I barely checked my essay lmao dah malas

But I quite like suffering through each class cos we all had to go through a crash course on Design Thinking (an extension of what Hoon’s class was about) and I loved it.

Grad Tripin’

So I spent 3+ weeks overseas and I left immediately after recess week (cos no finals lmao yass).Took forever to convince my mom that I wanted to travel to Korea all by myself, but it worked and I’m so thankful for it. Really.

I spent 9 days in Seoul + Busan, 5 days in KL with my krew and 6 days in HK with my gal pals. Tbh, the trip was quite impromptu cos I booked all of my tickets a few days before I left and I barely had any concrete plan, besides the fact that I’ll be meeting some of my friends here and there.

It felt like a healing trip for me and I think I managed to heal the wound that was the bane of my existence since Y4S1. My close friends knew it, you knew it and my parents knew that I was hurting - but somehow, I managed to convince myself to look past the pain until I got back from the trip.

And I knew that the wound was completely healed when I had nothing to say to you, even though I knew that I was never going to see you after that night. We had a damn good run but we shouldn’t continue pursuing something just because of nostalgia, you know?

Getting a job before graduating (!!!!!)

Ok hun listen, if you’re truly my friend, you would know how thirsty I was to get hired by AbbVie. But you would also know about my love hate relationship with that god forsaken place. Okay, yall need to understand that the fact that I got to intern at an MNC was a huge deal to me because they never once looked at my grades and they took me in when I had nothing to offer. Is this how Taybae felt like when she had her first break???

Anyway, they hired me on a part time contract basis from Jan till March (aka I was no longer an intern and I was earning twice as much heck freaking yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but what I did not know was the level of commitment. I barely had the time for anything else - I came home late almost all the time because I’ll either be from the lib (trying to salvage my grades) or out partying w my friends (and by partying I mean catching up with friends that I don’t see as often cos work lmao). Like if I’m not in school, I’m in the office and even when I’m at school, I’m working. It was hella intense and I cried almost all the time because I was stretched thin. (Protip: I still recommend my dear juniors to do part time internship if that’s the place you wanna work at after graduating because the market is so shit right now that none of my friends are hired and honestly, the ones that are hired were interns from that place)

It was also extra intense because I knew that they were gauging my performance and I needed a solid reason for why they should hire me after graduation. I was scared shitless when I first stepped into my director’s office to ask for a job.

This was how the conversation went:

Sya: *knock knock* Hi Indi, are you free for abit?

Indi (big shot director): Yes yes Sya come in!

Sya: *closes the door* So I wanted to talk about my future with AbbVie

I legit went for it - and that was how I got my first job guys. You know how long it took for me ask? Close to 5 months cos I was genuinely scared of rejection. I had to go through so many pep talks from my friends, seniors, parents, colleagues etc etc

So yessss, I managed to tick something off my dream list - Get hired before graduating

Haribo
