Everything here in my university is computerised. If you wanna reload your mobile phone, all you need to do is go to the vending machine and purchase your reload coupon from the vending machine...which save you lots of time and hassle then to go to the phone shop or convenient store just to purchase a reload coupon. Besides that, borrowing books from the library is also computerised...how cool is that? It's awesome...you can borrow up to 7 books per person for a full one month although there are some books which you can only borrow for 7 days. When you wanna borrow a certain book, all you need to do is to go to the machine, scan your student card and lastly, scan the barcode attached to the book and it's done...there's no need to line up to borrow books from the counter or whatever stupid shit! Back at my previous college in Malaysia, whenever i wanna borrow a book, i have to take the book to the counter and the library lady will have to stamp the date of return and we are only allowed to borrow 1 or 2 books for a maximum of 2-3 days per time. Not only that, the library here in my university is extremely huge...it has a total of 6 floors and there are also 6 elevators leading to all the floors. It's many many many times bigger compared to the public library in Penang. The best thing is that each book has about more than 10 copies each...so that students don't have to fight to get hold of a certain book. All sorts of registration or enrolment is done through online registration...no stupid old-fashion way of filling up forms. Oh yeah, all our assignment are to be received through online from our own webpage or better known as the "eLearning Portal". All students have their own webpage where the lecturers can communicate with. The technology here is super awesome...super cool...super fabulous. The food here in the university cafeteria serves one of the most delicious food ever and it's quite cheap too. There's even a Starbucks coffeehouse inside the cafeteria...
fantastico. I am so madly in love with the advance technology here in UK...especially the technology of my university. Northumbria University which i am studying at is currently leading the way in Information Technology (IT) after being named the UK’s
‘Most IT-Enabled Organisation’. Anyway, enough blogging already...i gotta go get some sleep because i have class at 9am tomorrow morning...bye!!!
