York, can sometimes kick ass.

So I'm writing up my last, VERY VERY VERY research talk. A professor from York University came over to University of Toronto to do a lecture on the brain and it was SO AMAZING.

I love how I understood every word she said and she defined all the terms and used all these analogies and she incorporated the audience into the lecture. It was SO GOOD. Like after the lecture, which I had to only listen ONCE through, no repeats whatsoever, I learned so much. Unlike UofT lectures, where I would have to listen to the lectures over and over again and still be like WTF?!

Things like this just make me want to just run over to York and be like, "PLEASEEEEEE TAKE ME IN!!!!!" And sometimes it's not even about the marks anymore, it's just the feeling of ACTUALLY learning and RETAINING something. What's the point of trying to memorize all this crap just to forget it SECONDS after the exam. SO 辛苦.
