Today I would like to write about what we did for last semester (Semester 4). For me, last semester was very VERY packed. I might be busier than the seniors who were doing their Final Year Project hahaha. So these are the list of the subjects taken :
Amalan Ladang : Tanaman Makanan
Tanaman Makanan
Getah
Agricultural Biochemistry
Entomology
Prinsip Ternak
Seed Technology
LAX
For Amalan Ladang, we had a special project which is Projek Jagung. We were required to plant our own maize (corn) for this semester. Everyone get their own ridge and we have to take care our own crops properly. And for this subject, we need to do practical things from what we learnt from class. So for every Friday, we will go to the Ladang in UPM and do all sort of planting. We get to harvest on our own too! This subject really took our time and efforts. We planted different food crops such as bayam, kangkung, sawi, mushrooms, cassava and many types of nuts. Under scorching sun, we remove weeds and put fertilizer. Some of the crops didnt grow up well and some of them were quite satisfying. We learned a lot of things in this subject. The most important thing would be hardwork and teamwork. This is also why my face got sun burn. =.=

| Mine! |

| OMG Look at that haha |
 |
| Look at those! |
 |
| Hydroponic! |
 |
| Mushrooms! |
Getah subject was the best for getting a good marks. You must wrote what ever you read about getah (rubber plant) in the examination and Insyaallah the lecturer will give marks for your effort. Hehe.

I flunked Agricultural Biochemistry in the first Test. It was consist of simple questions but maybe I was too shocked haha. But luckily Dr Tan helps us to gain more marks after that. Biochemistry seems to be a hardcore subject but Dr Tan made it easy. Thank you!

| Grind grind grind |
 |
| Nitrogen gas |
Entomology! It used to be the subject that I would really want to avoid. In this subject, we learned about insects and we need to collect them. All 40 of them! I really hate insects especially cockroach :/
Even when it comes to collecting them, I'll ask my friend to pick them up for me hahaha. There's a lot of scientific names that you should memorise too! Luckily, Dr Azura made Entomology fun! I would say that I fell in love with this subject. Since our class only consist of 10 people, Dr Azura organized an Ento Race. Every one enjoyed themselves that day and the prize was KFC voucher! But still, I dont want to touch any insect anymore hahaha. |
| Yes, it is a cockroach! |
 |
| Let's catch some insects! |

Prinsip Ternak was quite fun for me eventhough the lecturer was a strict person. Someone told me that she is so garang that I should just dropped that subject hahaha. Maybe because that the class didnt have many students so she was a bit relaxed. I really admire her passionate teaching. Also, the Red Shirt guy was in this class so sometime I would really looking forward for this class :p.
Seed Technology is actually an elective subject. Most of students in this class are the seniors (Third Year student). We, the Second Year students were struggling a bit to really understand the subjects. I would feel like a final year student during the laboratory sessions since we required to do all sort of experiments with seeds. It was a new experience for me.

| Germination Test |

| Forgot to mention that we also have seed collection |

| Guess what are these? |
Basically, these are the summaries of all the last semester subjects. I am very lucky that this semester, all of the lectures for my class were quite lean. I even got exam tips :') There's a lot of things that happened in this semester. A lot of memories that I will always appreciate. I hope that this semester result will not only be better, but also can fix my last CGPA. It is quite hard when there are few people would still judge your intelligence based on pointers. People, stop that!
