Self-Reflection
Semester 1 of Architecture was busy, to say the least. The modules were rigorous and quite tough; the pacing of assignments were fast and the materials weren't easy either. Some assignments were tasking, while others were fine and chill. Despite the grueling tasks, I do appreciate the lecturers for being lenient and flexible with the due dates. Particularly the AHT lecturers; when students asked for an extension for the project 2 submission date, they kindly allowed it and gave us an extra 2 weeks to turn it in. I appreciate their understanding.

Online Learning
​
As of online learning, there really isn't much to it other than the usual Zoom calls for lectures and/or meetings. I have gone through online learning in my last year of high school before, so it wasn't unfamiliar. Fortunately I was quick to adapt to the online resources provided by the school (TIMeS, SHINE Portal, Microsoft Teams, etc.). However, online learning is pretty exhausting, especially since I'm an international student studying abroad; the time difference makes it challenging to attend classes on time and arrange time with my peers and lecturers.
