I got to admit that the course that I hated most in HKU is the ECEN, which is so called "professional English for art student".

Actually there are so many way to learn professional English, but surely not the way this course has provided. The inventor of the career exposure project is super irresponsible, naive and absent-minded, that he/she himself/herself thought that it must be a great idea to have students searching for their own interested career fiel and look for a one day working interview and experience. However, IT SUCKS!!!! The inventor has overestimated the kindness of the Hong Kong employers and optimistically thought that companies will accept unknown strangers who claim that they are University students and allow them to stay one day doing non-sense observation! But the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT! In foreign countries, perhaps people will feel free for U-students to visit and co-operate, but in Hong Kong, for the business people who are top egoists and money-oriented, who is going to sympathize the unknown student?! Almost 90% of the classmates look for parents, relatives and friends, some even ask anonymous just to chop a seal on the evaluation form, and make up all the bull shit in their profolio, STILL THEY SCORE GOOD GRADE!!!!!HAHAHA!!!! what the funniest non-sense utmost!

And now after the workshadowing, you have presentation to do, resume and letters to submit. BUT THEY FIX A DAMN STUPID FORMAT!!!! If you don't follow the stubborn format set up by the english course, YOU FAIL, NO MATTER HOW GOOD YOUR ENGLISH ARE!!! But how come the inventor could never discover, that documents preparing for jobs always have FLEXIBILITY. I scored C- because I mention my grade of A-level English that I should not maintain because it is not a good grade?!!! Damn you PLEASE LOOK AT THE SOCIAL STATUS!!!! Any company does not require you to show your results in Chi and Eng? Tell me! If I could really be that selective on writing resume, I would really prefer to do so!!! Come On! Stop teaching USELESS MISLEADING SKILLS!

And for the presentation I only have 5 minutes to complete the speech, but the format has fixed that I MUST do it with the stupid route: Introduction, Outline, Purpose, Content, Thanks and 1 minute Q&A?!!!    Hey come on stop being nuts!!! I have made so many public speeches in both schools, workplaces, and competition. For Godsake I really want to say that there are millions way to propose a presentation. Making an outline is the stupidest person is you limit yourself by promising how many you are going to tell. If you run out of time you fail to keep your promise to the audience, or you trap by being accused for terrible time management. And NOBODY has said that purpose should be put at the beginning of presentation! There are certain flexibility that allow changes, which can make presentation more attractive and interesting. However, this fucking stupid course restricts us only to follow the iron rules, and learn to do boring sleepy presentation, if you try to make an interesting innovative speech, YOU FAIL!

From the beginning of the course, I had already thought that I would do my best to complain the foolishness of this course when evaluating it at the end. I can't wait to fill in the evaluation sheet!!! Though I am super disappointed for this course.

 I know I am going to get a bad grade, because I always want to be creative, innovative and skillful!
