Slack-Day

today was basically a day to slack, really(yes, u can tell from the title).

1st lesson was Engineering Fundamentals, which was supposed to last for 2 hrs(2 periods). However, according to our lab teacher, we were supposed to go through the lecture for it before he could teach us the lab work but since the lecture was on mon(which was a public holiday), we didnt know anything. thus, instead of ending at 11 am, he let us off at 9.30am. felt freaking good.

we headed as a big group(almost the whole class) towards Mensa during break. it was pretty cool just sitting in a 3/4 empty canteen, drinking iced milo(with friends) and staring at the fountains. but then we realised how boring it would get later in the day.

here's our original timetable for the day:

9-11: EngFund
11-12: Emath Lec
12-1: Break
1-2: PSPS1 (tut)
2-4: IFCPROJ1

our IFCPROJ teacher couldnt make it, thus we all thought we could leave at 2. imagine the happiness. however, in comes our CP who told us that we had to go for a briefing at 4pm, which meant we will have 2 hrs of break in between.

now here's our new timetable for the day:

9-9.30:EngFund
9.30-11: break (because the teacher cant teach)
11-12:EMath lecture
12-1: break. (lunch)
1-2:PSPS1 tutorial.
2-4: break (AGAIN~)
4-?: bullshit briefing(compulsory)

at the second break, the whole group of headed to the library to explore, and yea, our plan was to rent a movie to watch. so we headed to level 6(or 7. i cant recall) and started looking for a movie to watch within that hour. but like i said, there were too many of us and we couldnt all agree on ONE movie.Thus, we ended up not watching any. lol. so we pretty much just sat somewhere and slacked.

now OBVIOUSLY, no one wanted to go to the bull briefing. so here and there some said they werent going, and some said they didnt feel like going. but we couldnt just leave our class rep alone now, could we? and plus, the CP did call me to tell me. i would be in trouble if i didnt show. i didnt know what went on but all of a sudden, we were all going together to look for our CP to question him about it. eventually, our miracle was this sheet of paper. i didnt know what it said but eventually, it wasnt us who needed to go for the briefing. it was the IBT students. well, that's according to what my friends said. so, our already-blur CP got more blur, and went like, "oh..oh.. ok then u guys can leave." smirks' up people! lol.

to be honest, i dont know if it really was for the IBT students or that my friends had very scheming and wonderful brains to overpower our CP's with that "confusing trick" of theirs. oh what the hell? whatever it was, it worked for us anyway. *grins*

on another note, the whole cca thing is driving me crazy. some say cca points will help in the entry of local uni. but ccas arent compulsory. my problem is, i'd prefer to enter overseas' uni but local unis are cheaper. but then having a cca would definitely affect my studies because i know i'm gonna need to spend a lot of time understanding Java. and ccas would be in the evening. however, if i'll ever end up wanting to enter a local uni, i'd lose out because i wouldnt have cca points. plus, "all work and no play makes jack a dull boy."... but i really wont have time for it.

hmm.
