MY Lecturer is ET, I swear or I'll TOK!!


I know I have nothing to TOK but really, my lecturer is ET from Planet Earth. I am willing to put my money where my mouth is! Anyone wants to challenge?? I'm game if you're on.

I'm feeling really sad that my semester is over. This is the best module I have had in my entire stinking NUS life. I have enjoyed 3 modules this semester. Evo Psych, by Dr. Penney, Advanced Abnormal Psych, Dr. Collinson and my best best yet, Social Psychology, Dr. Eddie Tong.

Seriously, this has been the worst and best module yet. Dr Why has been the worst, he is so harsh in grading and Personality has been such a stinky module, I'm depressed.

Dr. Tong's been so funny and entertaining, seriously if NUS is filled by lecturers like him, I'd gladly fail to stay on. Anyway, I'm posting up some announcements he's sent us. He's hilarious! He calls himself Sage Tong, by the way, and we are his followers :)

I can assure you you will be dearly missed and no forces in this evol world, primed or unprimed, automatic or controlled, central or peripheral, will made me suppress the loving appraisals you have aggressively given me, in which case you know will not succeed.

May the force be with you. damn!

Dearest all,

how are you? i hope you are doing well in this time of term papers deadline and midterms. If you are stressed, take my advice as someone with 10 years more experience than you: hardly anything you are worrying over now you will be concerned with 10 years from now.

In any case, here's next Supp Reading:

Gosling, S. D., Ko, S. J., Mannarelli, T., & Morris, M E. (2002). A room with a cue: Personality judgments based on offices and bedrooms. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 82, 379-398.

PS: hey Shan, stop admiring the mirror! ;)

Here are the pictures of the three playbox University of Michigan professors and ex-prof I told you about in class : )

It was during the SARS period, so i think there was no lectures, then he book a room and took webcast of himself teaching air and post it online for us.

Estee is the one in the last row way to the right one?
