Hey everyone! Sorry it’s been a while, but exams are finally finished woohoo! I’ve got a few days break before I start my internship so thought I’d make the most of the free time to give you guys a summary of all the courses I took this semester just like I did for semester 1….Continue Reading Semester 2 Summary
And just like that, you have officially past the end of your first year 🥳! Good job for getting through this far, and hope you didn’t get too demoralised by certain courses which I shall not name. I’m sure y’all got plans for this big summer break, now that the Auckland is gradually opening up. Enjoy…Continue Reading So long, and thanks for all the fish
Guess who’s back for the final time…. I thought I would end this series of blog posts with a reflection on the past year and some thoughts on what comes next after Part 2 electrical. I’m not going to lie. This has been, by far, the most challenging semester. There have been many moments where…Continue Reading Final thoughts and goodbye
Finally! I’m free! My final exam for the year literally finished just over half an hour ago, and no words can express how relieved I am. This year was most definitely a hectic one, with the added stress of lockdown on top of uni and work, but it has also been my favourite year at…Continue Reading …and That’s a Wrap (no, literally, that is a wrap)

In a sort of last-ditch effort to show you why Biomedical Engineering is so fun, I thought I’d tell you a little about the group assignments I’ve done this year. As a disclaimer, this second…Continue Reading Group work gamble

Boy, was I…Continue Reading What to actually expect

So, here’s a more in-depth intro into the world of Mechatronics and where…Continue Reading Why Mechatronics?
Boom. Before you know it, semester two’s over already. Wow, who would have thought? It felt like we just went into lockdown a few days ago, but you wake up one day and puff, no more classes. Finally, time to catch up on all those lectures you missed the week before the exams 🙃. But…Continue Reading Semester 2 Stimulations: a Wrap-up?
For a long time, I didn’t think I’d write with this post. My internship hunting experience had been months upon months of disappointment and rejection, and I didn’t feel in any place to impart wisdom. But, things are looking better now, and I swear this post isn’t me humble bragging about gaining an internship, but rather,…Continue Reading My internship hunt experience
Whoever said that internship hunting was a full time job in itself, was not wrong.

Finding an internship…Continue Reading The Internal Struggle of Internship Hunting
