Homework Help for University Undergrad Students

Someone online was going to take an exam and was feeling very stressed out. So I wrote something to him and I am glad it helped a lot. Hopefully what I wrote can also help you people out too :)

What's the subject? Is it about English? History? Math? 

Just a quick note that students are not expected to develop or seek "new findings", "new stats", or "new facts" about a certain subject. That's the job of PHD prof/experts to find those facts through strict, scholarly research guidelines. The student's job is to just know and understand the findings and facts, what people have said about the subject, plus your opinion on it.  (Not as hard as you think). 

For exams that tests you about something that's on, or can be found on a book or print, there should be some resources online that shows the summary of what you're studying. 

You don't have to read everything there is in a summary site. You also don't have to read EVERYTHING in an assigned reading either. You can skip their examples and "stories" section. Just try to find the MAIN POINTS and MAIN IDEAS of what you're reading. Then, remember those points, and write your opinion of that certain event or fact (if asked). 

You will do fine. Before you do the exam, you can close your eyes and take a deep breath to try to relax. Know that this is one single exam and it will not define who you are as a person. Don't be afraid to make mistakes and seek help if you find something unclear. Good luck <3 

Hope this helps many more people, like how it did on someone from another site. 

I'm Back!

After about a year of not making any posts, I guess I'm back at this site now. I think many posts I will make in the future will be a copy of what I have written in the past on a twitter service that lets you post things with more than 140 characters. I will post them here so it's easier to read and you don't have to keep on clicking to the "next page" to see my other posts. So I guess the simpler the blog format is, the better.

Hope you enjoy my future posts and beyond as much as I will do :)

心療中, Shinryochu-In the Room Analysis and Review (SPOILERS)

If you aren't watching the show critically, chances are you would think, "nothing happens" or "the show doesn't make sense and has no meaning", which isn't the case for Shinryochu.

For the record, I am almost finished watching episode 12 and I am at the part where Shun Tanaka reveals something- which by the way is one of the biggest twists in the series and it freaked me out more than the "Red Wedding" bandwagon memes on Youtube-.  Just because I am only halfway through the last episode does not mean I don't get what the show is trying to say...

Honestly, in the beginning, it was a bit confusing trying to understand what the point of the show was.  It's about a psychiatrist, Ryo Tenma, who is temporary living in a High School trying to host psychiatric sessions to patients in the school.  Then you get to witness many hardships people are going through during the day-to-day sessions.  Topping it off is the subplot of the relationship meltdowns that are happening within Ryo's family.  Things look grim as the show goes on...

Why can't you help us!

Some of the stories and events may not sound like it will end nicely, but the domestic abuser Sakuya Aikawa (Yuma Sanada) left the show by telling the Doctor to keep on exploring about his own case in episode 10. In episode 9, Minami Umihara (Anna Suda) leaves because she gives up on Ryo's stalling advices.  What about when Ren Kitahara (Kento Senga) wants "today to be the last day" to be participating in the sessions in episode 4?

There is meaning to this.  Do not mistake the difference between action and intent.  There is an underlying reason why the patients are doing what they're doing.  There are so much more examples from the show, but if you see the bigger picture, they do not want to talk to the psychiatrist anymore.  That is just the beginning of what they want to do.

The "No one can save me" tagline is shown at the end of the second last episode, right after the previews for the last episode.

Somehow, all the patients' problems in the show seem like it has a cliffhanger in the end.  There is a reason for this.  The individual are the ones making the choices.  You are the only one responsible deciding what you want to do.  So the moral is, no one can save you, only you can help yourself.  For better or for worse, the patients are the ones making the decisions, moving on, and/or helping themselves, something that no one can do for other people.  The more important part of this show is what is going to happen after the patients leave Ryo Tenma's room.

The character's stories are not over and it looks like things will get back to normal when they find out they have to try to solve their own problems themselves.  Well, there are 12 episodes all together for Shinryochu, enough to get the point across.  This has got to be one of the most deep and interesting Japanese Dramas I've seen in awhile!
