What is the Best University to Attend
November 23, 2019
Parents, students, and employers often fuss about going to the best University or hiring employees from the top schools. There also has been a recent trend of parents trying to get their child to attend the best middle school and high school. Education is an important part of one’s life and the education one receives may impact their entire life. Going to the top schools usually implies having the best teachers, the best resources, and the best chances for success after graduation whether it be for high-level education, research, or career. I have family who specifically bought a house at...First Year of University – Entering a new Environment
June 14, 2019
In one of my previous blogs, I have gone over my struggles in choosing what to do after High School. Like most students, we all have to find a program or vocation to major in. After many dilemmas, I choose to study Computer Science (Specialist Program) at the University of Toronto Mississauga. As usual, this blog will be poorly written and incoherent. The transition between High School and University can be very tough especially when you are in a new city with no friends. Many students each year make the decision to leave their hometown to pursue studies away from...Computer Science – A long and gargled Explanation
May 12, 2019
Prologue: Computer Science has been getting a lot of attention in the past few years, especially due to media coverage. The 21st century began with a lot of optimism of Computer Technology transforming the lives of humanity for the greater good. However, there has not been a sudden boom of interest in the field of Computer Science and it may be due to the lack of understanding of the field along with the Dot Com Bubble near the beginning of the 21st Century. But there seems to be this revival in the field that many students are being encouraged to...I Want to Eat Your pancreas: A Heart Breaking Yet Heart Warming Story
April 21, 2019
I want to eat your pancreas is a heartwarming and breaking story of a boy and his interactions with a female classmate has a terminal pancreatic disease. It is a beautiful portrayal of the importance of the life we have on Earth. It is an interaction between two opposite people: a male and a female, a bookworm and a person who only reads manga, an introvert and an extrovert, a healthy human and a person with a pancreatic disease, a person with a longer life expectancy and a person who has less than a year left. Regardless of their personalities,...Killing time during Commute by Reading Books
April 13, 2019
Depending on where you live, your commute to work or school may be short or very long. Your mode of transportation probably consists of one or more of the following: walking, taking a bus, subway/train, or even a ferry. I used to commute to my High School through a yellow bus since there is no public transit in the countryside where my High School was located. I would have to wake up early and be at my bus stop by 7 am and make up my loss of sleep on the bus since I usually slept around 2 or 3...5 Centimeter Per Second: One More Side Impression
April 13, 2019
Note: This blog contains spoilers of the story Recently I started to buy light novels and read them during my commute. The first light novel I decided to buy is “5 Centimeter Per Second: One More Side” since I was familiar with the story. To refresh my mind on the story, I decided to read the manga since it’s been many years since I last saw the movie. Those of you who watched the movie and were disappointed about the ending, don’t worry. I was also disappointed with the ending. I thought it would be nice to expand on my...Disturbing Facts about Phoenix: Implementation Part 1

January 16, 2019
Prelude: Recently I wrote a blog about the various options that students often choose from and discussed the prospect of each option. Originally I intended the blog to be about my personal experience and my struggles in choosing what I wanted to do after HighSchool but I ended up deviating. First World Problem: The Problem With too many Options Short story short, I ended up going to University to study Computer Science and still have no clue what I want to do. Living in a very developed and “free” society, I am given the privilege and “freedom” to do what...Different Options after HighSchool

After 12 years of education, you have now finish HighSchool and become an adult but what is next?

All three options are viable and somewhat equally important decisions to make. Once...
