Last friday was the day my group for Game Development had a meeting with Allen Simonson. I must say, someone who is an industrial expert really is very different from a lecturer in university.

I just mentioned that I have no research topics, and Allen can offer so many topics just based on the game idea we have. Golam can NEVER do that. That's the lecturer for a game based module and Golam is to Games as men are to Bras. They can take one off, but they can never design one and let a girl feel good wearing one. He's that alien from games and he's lecturing about them.

So maybe im too harsh on the man. Fine. It's been 4 fucking years. You'd think he'd be faster than me in learning, seeing as he is a fucking DOCTORATE and much senior than me in studying. Every time we feedback him on how shitty he is, he comes back on the next semester as slipshot as we had described him. C'mon, even people who interviewed his students were disappointed at what they did in his class. If its not enough a wake up call, he even said that he "almost gave up teaching, and could have went out into the industry to work." Oh wow, just GO, FUCKING GO. And then i'll see how YOU die. He is also the embodiment as to why studying alone gets you nowhere. For fuck's sake play some games people!

To rub the irony, I and some others have conspired to give Golam a positive feedback for once: Thank you for letting Allen co-lecture your module so as to wipe up your act, and it was Alex Mitchell who approached him, not you.
