Today I woke up at 4.30am and laid on the bed till 4.45am before getting out of the bed reluctantly to study for my class. I had to do this not because of an exam but because I did not do my studies for the daily classes the night before.
Halfway through studying, a friend of mine from UK called me and I ended chatting with him, my sister(who was in Shanghai) while trying to study. Although this made me divide my attention between studying and chatting, I did enjoy it immensely.
After finishing my class at around 12 noon, I had no idea what I was supposed to do as to go back home which was so far from the current hospital (a 45min ride on a mini van) and I still had a lecture at 3 which was also quite a distant from where I lived(a 30 min ride on a mini van as well). Hence, me and my friends decided to go to Mc Donalds to chill till the time was up for our lecture.
At first, I made up my mind to only buy the Chicken burger which was one of the cheapest, but upon arrival, the new roll that they had on the menu(curry roll) was so mouth watering that I bought it as well.
Later only did we realize we actually had more than enough time to go back and rest for a bit before heading out for our lecture. This was the first thing that made me feel that I had a “bad” day. Even after eating, we still had time to head home and unload some of our stuff that were not needed for lecture, we still didn’t go back as it was more of a hassle(though I did really want to go back since I wanted to collect and hang out my laundry)
It then came to the time when our lecture was to start, we were ordered around the hospital as they could not decide which room to use. After finally settling down, the lecture started and from that moment onwards, my anger grew.
Not only was the teacher giving the lecture by only reading the slides( which I personally think is a waste of time as if that is all what the teacher was going to do, she could have just gve us the slides and let us read it by ourselves.), there were numerous spelling errors on the slides that she did not notice, she never stop to wait for us to finish writing notes, and worse, she would just jump some slides saying that we have already discuss it earlier. That just made me even more frustrated.
We were supposed to finish lecture at 4.30pm but were only let off around 4.45pm and by the time we finish clearing up the class room and walked to the bus stop it was 5.00pm. By the time I reached home it was nearing 6.00pm. That just screwed up my schedule for the day as I wanted to cook “Bak Kut Teh” for dinner and it needs some time to be fully done.
Thank god that I somehow managed to whip up the dishes at around 7.20pm and I am proud to say that it was one hell of a dinner.
