i went early for accounting today. class usually starts at 930am but since there was extra tutorial lessons before that. i decided to go since i had two people dragging me out of bed early in the morning when the bed felt all so nice to laze about that morning. i was really tempted to just sms hanxian that i wasnt coming early to lend my economics notes to him and that i'll lend it to him later on. my sister dragged me out of bed with those pitiful pair of eyes of hers: come to school with me will you?
john was all serious about us studying hard for accounts. he wanted us to be just like the camelite nuns and trappist priests who vowed never to talk. in his sense of the word, no omong kosong ( or whatever how you spelt it) he started to seperate the fishmongers in the class because they gossip a lot among them selves. and john's the only teacher who ever throws past year exam papers at you almost every other week. i have like a whole stack of accounting past year questions that have yet to be done and here i am blogging. oh wells.
stuarts class was as usual: boring. we had our research assignment test today. for 70 minutes to write up a 45 marked essay is seriously not enough time. i swear. oh wait, i cant swear. fine i promise. everyone said it was tough. with just a notes page of an allowed 150 words and two diagrams, i could only write out the main idea on the notes page, leaving the rest of my mind to build up on it during the duration of the test. it was tough. when all you want to, is to write out abbreviated names of words but yet you cant since it was an essay so everything had to be in full sentences and words. i cant remember how many times i had to write in full the term: goods and services when i use to write out g/s.
we had time to kill after the test. he was mean. he made me do my presentation when i wasnt even ready to do it yet. there was just me and francis, and "best of all"
we had the same article. gosh! i have a competitor. ladies first. aggh why me? cant he go first? so i did mine before he did. it was terrible i was choking on every alternate word. they seem to just get stuck while trying to come out of my mouth.
i was tired out by the end of his class and i still english to deal with. john allowed us to read our notes out in the sun by the tables since the rest were in class doing the college questionnaire. the sun's nice today. i dont get why i have to be so stupid as to wear long jeans today and short pants the day before when the winds were bad enough to blow you away. silly me.
we went back to class after spending like 1/2 hour out in the sun reading. i played with darryl's specs. i look nerdy in those reading glasses. we tried to burn things with the focus of the light rays onto the grass. we ended up in failure.
possums, get back to class now
why john? cant we do it out here in the sun
i wish we could but the rest of the teachers are giving me dirty looks
because you guys make a lot of noise
especially you jes.
oh crap.
john, why do you always pick on amanda?
well because i love to
she's the only one in the class who actually bothers to write whatever im saying
and its queer really
right amanda?
but john! you always make her check up for words in the dictionary
and i mean always.
she learns something new everyday.
he smiled at me.
it was fine with me though, i really didnt mind much.
jes looked at me:
amanda. the next time he does that to you
just punch him,
we'll tell everyone else he fell on his own.
like you can tell them:
he fell in my fist and my other hand helped him up.
it was hilarious. everyone was laughing their heads off. english classes were never this great.
