I have just recieved my lecturer’s report. Not bad, an average of 4.24. That means I must have been doing something right.
Here are all the comments I received.
He’s damn good in Maya and very inspiring as a teacher!
Love his lessons. Never boring. Gives a lot of visual examples to excite the mind and provide motivation to learn. Probably could give more breaks so that lecture doesnt become too dry.
he know his stuff really well and organize the lesson in a way where it is more interesting for us to absorb
He truly know his facts well enough. And to make things easier for us, he makes notes and show us nice films to encourage us in our 3d maya.
he is a nice lecturer, just that maybe can make classes more interesting.
The lecturer is extremely good in 3D modeling and it’s quite inspiring to see his works.
They should double your pay!
He knows what to teach & how to explain it to the class such that we understand it instantly.
He is proficient in the subject and would teach us tips to do certain actions using the program. He would also showed us relevant videos and tell us how to break them down in maya.
He provides us with good guidance and cares for our well being. He gives us notes and on hands lessons when needed.
Very caring and patient. One of the most lenient lecturers. Understands what he is teaching very well, which also helps me to understand even better.
I really feel that he is a great lecturer and offers to help us with our work and assignments. He is also very hardworking when he teaches us tutorials.
Very talented and tries his best to share his passion for his work with us.
His is a very nice guy and good at what he is teaching!
He put in effort to point out the mistakes each student made in their assignment and talk to them individually on how to improve their work. He is hardworking.
I think he should be more interactive with the class, and not just teaching it from the screen itself. He should be more concern about the students’ work and maybe go around helping those students who need help with the lesson, as many students from his class is not understanding the subject.

Lots of people, friends and family alike, have often wondered whether or not I believe in God, more importantly in their God. An interesting question given the circumstance that point to the rather obvious. I do not go to the temples unless I am nagged or told I have to do it for my dead ancestors. I also never pray and often put on a show for my elders because I do not believe in personal God.
It may sound like I’m an Atheist. But call it whatever you want. I strongly believe that God that does not rule over the universe by providence, but a God which itself is the deterministic system of which everything in nature is a part. Thus, God is the natural world and He or She has no personality.
I am determinist who holds that absolutely everything that happens occurs through the operation of necessity. For me, even human behavior is fully determined, with freedom being our capacity to know we are determined and to understand why we act as we do. So freedom is not the possibility to say “no” to what happens to us but the possibility to say “yes” and fully understand why things should necessarily happen that way. By forming more “adequate” ideas about what we do and our emotions or affections, we become the adequate cause of our effects (internal or external), which entails an increase in activity (versus passivity). This means that we become both more free and more like God.

1. Don’t complaint.
2. Divide you pay into ten equal accounts. This is my plan, you need not follow mine, but it is crucial you learn the lessons here.
3. Categorize each accounts accordingly.
1 – Investment
2 – Emergency
3 – Savings
4 – Savings
5 – Transport
6 – Food
7 – Indulgence
8 – Home
9 – Debt
10 – Bills
4. The first thing to do is to have $1000 in your emergency account. This is the money that you will use in case you have emergencies. Eg. Your pants tore and you need a new one tomorrow.
5. Always maintain $1000 in your emergency account. So if you used $100 of your emergency account, you need to top it back up.
6. All remaining funds will contribute to the debt account until all debt is settled. If there is no debt, all remaining funds go to the emergency account.
7. If emergency account has reached it’s target amount ($1000) than all remaining funds will contribute to the investment account.
8. Make a list of debt you have. Then arrange it from the smallest to the biggest.
9. Pay the minimum for all the rest except for the smallest debt. Pay as much money as you can possibly spare to clear your smallest debt.
10. Once your smallest debt aka 1st debt has been settled, add the money which you normally would pay for your 1st debt to pay for your 2nd debt. Continue this snowball process until all debt is paid.
11. Do not incur any more debt. Period.
12. If you really want to buy something, buy cash and if only if your budget allows it.
13. Don’t listen to your broke friends and family advice. Do what wealthy people do!
14. Stick with the plan and not only can you will be Debt Ridden and you can start building your Wealth.

Originality and Imagination Areas Where You Are Creative, Unique, Unstable, or Compulsive
Most people do not see your wild, daring, “crazy” side, and you yourself may be unaware of it! You tend to hold back the unconventional, inventive, impulsive side of you nature – or to live it out only in your private fantasies. You may have strange dreams!
You are yielding, gentle, and impressionable. You tend to “melt” into your surroundings, and do not make a very powerful, vivid impression on others. Especially while young, you may not have a very clear sense of identity.
Sensitive and compassionate, you do not enjoy fighting and no matter what you profess, you are a pacifist at heart.
You may have a deep aversion to groups, associations, clubs, or organizations of any kind. Any such group you become involved in is likely to be either for intense personal growth, change, and healing, or centered around social change and revising society in some manner.
You have a restless spirit and could be a revolutionist or rebel. Your total disregard for convention may cause you to be very rebellious, going your own way without regard for what others say or think. You also could be prone to suffer inner conflicts.
Your emotional excitability is very high and you require a lot of rest and relaxation to function properly. You are a slave to your feelings and follow your spontaneous inspirations, but tend to carry them out without the proper planning beforehand.
You tend to underestimate your ability to succeed and are often unable to follow through on your intentions. You are quick to resign, easily drained and should guard against depression and negative mental, emotional or physical reactions.
You have a somewhat melancholic nature and probably lack self-confidence. Feeling inferior, you are likely to fear things that are not at all threatening to others. A sense of anxiety for no apparent reason may cause you to feel depressed at times.
You are inclined to dominate people and to use or manipulate others for your own ends. You have a strong need to be in control and to exercise influence over others. You also have a desire to achieve record performances in groups you may be involved with.

Areas That Challenge You Or Are Difficult For You
You yearn for, and fear, being emotionally vulnerable with others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting yourself be known in a deep way doesn’t come easily to you, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. You are very self-protective and may be compulsively secretive. Learning to relinquish control in personal relationships, and to be completely open, are important tasks for you.
You are generally not a “joiner” and do not feel comfortable in clubs, organizations or other groups of people that are centered around some common ideal or interest. If you do participate in a group, you may find the rules and procedures restrictive – or you may simply feel that you do not fit in with the others.
Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits you better than being with groups of your own peers.
You are suspicious of groups, crowds, and social organizations. You are quick to notice social games and insincerities, and you avoid the limelight and glamour. You are direct and to the point in speech and manner, stubborn and inflexible, and often unwilling to communicate your innermost feelings and thoughts.
Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which you instinctively and habitually revert to when under stress – a mostly unconscious process and one which you are apt to overdo because it is so familiar and thus easy for you. The direction you need to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.
When under stress you are apt to close down the flow of your emotions, ignoring your needs and feelings in order to do what you perceive as your duty or simply what the practical realities of the situation require. This can lead to a certain rigidity and hardness. If overdone, self-control, self-discipline, or an exaggerated concern over what society, family or others expect of you makes life more a burden than an adventure.
Developing tenderness, caring, feeling, and the feminine, nurturing aspects of yourself is an important step in your unfolding. You need to learn how to nourish and lovingly attend to both yourself and others. Letting yourself be taken care of sometimes is okay!
The arena you are most likely to wrestle with these issues is in your marriage and other intimate, one-to-one relationships. You may see the qualities you need to develop more fully (described above) in your partner. It is important for you to recognize, appreciate, and listen to the people in your life who express such attributes, as well as developing them yourself. Put energy and attention into learning about others, and about yourself through others.
The specific habits which are likely to hold you back, or which you are prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:
Escapism through fantasy, intoxicants, or unreal, vicarious activities (television, movies, etc.), passivity, waiting for a miracle instead of taking constructive steps to help yourself, aimlessness or an inability to make and keep commitments, and self deception regarding other people, being a martyr.
You have a strong desire to take part in social functions and entertainment and cultivate an active exchange of thoughts with others. You also appreciate associations and have the ability to carry enterprises to a successful conclusion in team-work.
You co-operate well with others and have the ability to give and receive stimulating suggestions. You are always receptive to new ideas and ready for spontaneous group efforts. You seem to have an instant recall of things and are likely to act just as quickly.

Growth and Expansion: Areas That You Enjoy
Your strength lies in your ability to see the whole, rather than only the parts which compose it. You have a deep need to explore the world and to develop your own philosophy of life and sense of personal meaning. You vacillate between being open-minded and tolerant of differing views, and being dogmatic or overly zealous about your own viewpoint.
You are drawn to social work, the ministry, giving your time and energy to charitable organizations, or to serving and helping the disadvantaged in some way. Your generosity and unselfishness will bring you and others much good.
You are very enthusiastic and high-spirited. You inject a positive, optimistic note into any endeavor, and others enjoy your fun-loving and enterprising attitude.
You are enthusiastic, optimistic and confident and are likely to have a rich emotional life. Your aims tend to be high, your aspirations noble, and you are always hopeful for the future. Your friends and parents probably are very supportive to you.

Drive and Ambition: How You Achieve Your Goals
You are noncombative, noncompetitive, and something of a pacifist. You will give something up rather than fight for it. You may seem weak-willed or ineffectual, for you do not have a strong ego drive for personal achievement and material advantage, or for winning at the expense of someone else.
Being first, being best, being on top doesn’t mean much to you, and you can be quite happy in a supporting role, working for the benefit of others or for a cause that you believe in. You are gentle and impressionable and are motivated by less mundane and less tangible things than most other people.
You may have difficulty formulating clear, definite goals for yourself and making your way in the world. You have many dreams, high ideals, and a strong mystical or religious impulse.
You also have a creative imagination and can successfully apply yourself to art or music. You have a sensitive physique and need to maintain good regular health habits in order build strength and stamina.
Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, you enjoy arguing, debating, and contesting other people’s opinions. You are quite forthright and sometimes tactless. You can be very convincing about your point of view, but you are prone to a “hard-sell” approach which sometimes backfires. Challenging mental work is a good avenue for your aggressive intellect.
Working with others seems to make you happy and you are likely to be a much sought colleague or co-worker. You have a need to keep in contact with people and enjoy open communication with them.
Exercising self-control could be quite difficult for you and you may often become involved in quarrels. Some of these disputes could end in violent behavior, if you are not careful. Being with others seems to put you in a constant state of excitement.
Indecision and confusion over your ambitions or direction in life may hold you back from achieving anything solid, especially in your early life. You’re very much a dreamer and your interests and inclinations may not translate very readily into concrete goals.
Personal glory or accomplishment can never be your sole motivation or drive in life. Ministering to others in some way may be your calling, however. Or you could use your dreamy, imaginative energies in creative ways — the arts, music or entertainment field.
Fluidity of speech and thought, and using intellectual gifts or communicative skills to achieve your ambitions in life are featured. Convincing, selling, persuading, reasoning, bringing ideas into public awareness are also part of your professional life.

Moods, Feelings, Romance
You are not easily moved by emotional displays and can be curiously detached from your own and others’ emotions. It’s almost as if you could turn your feelings on and off at will so you should be careful not to leave the switch “off” too often, for you could easily become too impersonal. Family ties and attachments are not as important to you as they are to most people and you often consider your friends closer to you than your blood relatives.
Certainly, your sympathy and concern extends much beyond your immediate family. In your personal relationships, you insist upon a certain amount of independence and the freedom to pursue friendships with as many people, of both sexes, as you choose. You do not appreciate a jealous, possessive partner.
You feel comfortable in an atmosphere that is open and experimental, and you have little taste for convention and tradition.
You are likely to be a great collector of things – a real pack rat in fact – for your belongings give you a sense of security and continuity with the past, which is important to you. Antiques or things with sentimental value from your past are especially dear to you.
You may also cling rather tightly to both money and possessions, keeping them “in the family” rather than sharing freely with those outside of your immediate circle.
Tremendously softhearted and sympathetic, you give very selflessly and devotedly to those you love and often allow others to become overly dependent upon you. More compassionate than passionate, you may become romantically involved with someone because they need love and you want to help them, rather than out of mutual pleasure or attraction.
You are drawn to sensitive, imaginative, gentle souls -poets, musicians, dreamers – or to someone you feel you can have a deep spiritual relationship with. You idealize love and have a very beautiful, romantic vision of what love can be.
Beautiful, elegant, and harmonious surroundings are very important to you, and you have an innate sense of style, design, and form. Socially, also, good form and politeness are important to you and you instinctively avoid crudeness and dissonance.
You enjoy talking about love, relationships, art and the beautiful side of life. You appreciate artistic people.
You are extremely amorous and it is difficult for you to go without a romantic involvement for very long. When you are attracted to someone, you pursue them very ardently and sometimes come on too strong. Doing creative work or artistic work can also satisfy the very strong desire for love and beauty that you feel.
