Day One


Yet another first for me, it seems I've been breaking alot of barriers and trying new things recently.
Which is a good thing, really.

Reached school at 6.20pm and tried to find the most direct / fastest way to the Canteen for my dinner before my class starts at 7pm.

AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE LECTURE THEATRE IS

Plan A
Do it the Singaporean Way, follow the crowd.

My plan failed miserably though, the students there are surprisingly lost. As if they reached the high gates of heaven and are marvelling at every tile, pillar and door, wandering about aimlessly at a snail's pace.

Plan B:
Do it the logical way, see a way up just go.
(I"m at Level2 going to Level3).
Anyway up would suffice, a rope a ladder a teleportation device. Anything!
It didn't help that I wasn't wearing my specs and my visibility is so limited ._.
The only other time I went up was by the stairs at a far away place. I wanted to explore the school bit-by-bit, so I looked out for an escalator/lift, and I finally found one.
Felt like a lazy slob going up ONE level by the lift, but meh who cares nobody knows me anyway.

Had my dinner hastily because I needed some time to find my LT
There's 2 blocks here and if I'm searching at the wrong one, I'll be late! And I'm never late!
Lady Luck smiled on me and I found the place soon.

Decided to try out the School Wifi and save the configuration on my laptop, and NO IT DOESN'T WORK, can't login at all! Pfft!
Tried hotspot tethering from my iPhone and OH EM GEE it doesn't work too! This has never happened!

I ignored that and decided to enter the LT ahead in time, scanned my card for attendance (<80% and you get barred from exams! That's like missing 2-3 lessons and u dai)

Half of the 30 strong class were seated alone. Loners like me were aplenty apparently.
Only 1 or 2 were wearing office clothes like me, the rest seemed to be just kids who preferred studying part-time at night with us 0_0
The other half sat together in their own groups, apparently friends.

Interesting thing is, nobody talked at all. Before class, class, 15min tea/toilet break, class. NOBODY TALKED.

Sad things #1
If you asked me if I made any new friends, I would say the ONLY person I talked to is the auntie whom I ordered point point from. (-_-)

Sad things #2
Lecturer said assignments are to be in groups of 2-3. And we are to find our own groups.
Seeing that the people here are so unfriendly or already have their own groups, I fear getting a lazy and/or retard as my group member(s). I'd rather much solo my way up if I could. I had enough of lazy idiots weighing me down in my poly days.

Sad things #3
I couldn't even get out of school properly!
I took the lift down to Level 1. Supposedly I just need to turn right and I'll reach the main entrance where the bus stop is.
But NOOOO, it was the Car park!
I roamed around the eerie Car park for awhile before I found a stairs (phew!) and got to Level 2 Atrium before I made my way back DOWN to Level 1 to the bus stop.


Le sigh.
I hate school already
