#Realization

👩‍🎓🧑‍🎓 These days, I have been researching the job market for university graduates, and the key takeaway I had was the following:

Do not underestimate “additional skills”

In this era, with the competitive job market and developed AI, to get a competitive position, it is no doubt that one needs much more than a degree and a good GPA.

These “additional skills” might be fluency in a language, published research, or a mastered programming language.

In fact, these might be deciding factors to get a position, at times even more deciding than a degree.

I just had a uni math exam at 7pm at night🤯 But honestly, it was not as harsh as alwiut the girl next to me literally solved her problems using AI (the black veil Emiratis wear do help, it turns out) And the courses are scheduled in a way that the exam…

This cat has been sitting on me for 10 minutes now?

How do i tell him/her to go now and without scratching me??

The best compliment that a professor can make:

Talking 1-2-1 with her, and she says:

On Brightspace, I posted some published articles by scholars as examples for your final essay. But you can write better than those.

☺️☺️☺️))

P.s. nothing raises my mood as much as good feedback from profs.

I was wondering why i wanna sleep in the library, coz work was going well

And it turned out, as my phone claimed?, it was 1.26 am

Otherwise, I wouldn’t realise, fr

I feel like I’ve changed a lot

Yes - ?
No - ?

Sunsets are so beautiful these days

My First Impressions of the Courses I'm Taking
As I start my new academic journey, I wanted to share my thoughts on the courses I've had so far

1. Contemporary Dance
I really enjoyed this class. The stretching felt great, and I loved how we could improvise to any kind of music. The teacher was kind and supportive, which made the experience even better. It is a PE course, so it’s a win-win that I’m taking it since it’s mandatory to take several PE courses to graduate.

2. Introduction to Psychology
This class was interesting from the start. The professor kept us engaged with exercises and questions. I found the topics fascinating and look forward to learning more.

3. Introduction to Computer Science
Computer Science wasn’t for me. The three-hour lecture felt long, and I realized I’m not the type to sit in front of a computer writing code all day. I prefer more interaction and flexibility in my work. I’m glad I tried it, though—it helped me understand what I don’t enjoy. I’m definitely dropping CS.

Looking Ahead
Tomorrow, I have Introduction to Anthropology and Management and Organizations. The latter is especially important since it’s connected to the Business Organization and Society major that I’m considering. After these classes, I’ll continue writing reviews and decide what courses to take if I drop CS.

P.s. Haven’t been able to catch up with my DMs. Gonna do it soon.
