De one with The Dorm

Sunny then windy

Today I arrived at campus super early today. End up, waited at the SIM busstop for Zhen Ze and Guan Hui to reached, 5 mins before 10am. When we went into the lecture hall, which was freezing at the place I was sitting, the lecturer just started lesson even though it was a quarter past 10. Reason was because he was experiencing technical fault early when he initiate to start at 10:02am.

Well, the lecturer was unsatisfied with students strolling in as late as 10:30am. He shown his displeasure by stopping his lecture, get the audience' attention, held up and look at his watch everytime late students were still strolling into the lecture hall. He mentioned something quite funny. The reason he gave for having the priviledge to feel unhappy was simply because today was "Teachers' Day". Hehe..

Today I lost my concentration through the 2nd half of the lecture. I really didn't comprehen whatever he was explaining about the components, namely Income sub-components and Expenses sub-components, were in relationship with Income Statements. Omg. To recall I'm going to be an accountant. Right now I'm facing difficulties in this. Arhh! Stress!

It was even more stressful when the lecturer break down our mid-term exam topics and method of study. More stress!!!

After school I was decided whether I wanted to meet Clara for lunch. Apparantly when I messaged her, she was with the girls. Well.. I was drained physically and mentally, so I decided to go home.

On my way home, I decided to get to Junction 8 to get my favourite hunger-filling sandwiches from Sweets Secret bakery. I got Oyster Mee suah for Ah-ma and a few snacks from Old Chang Ki for everyone. After that, I messaged Sweet, who called back to say Sweet misses me.

Savouring my sandwich, I watched my all-time favourite The Incredibles. After that, the Dorm, the Thai movie. It was supposedly to be scary however, it turned out to be more of a heart-warming movie. It's about this 7th grade boy who was sent to a boarded school away from home, by his father. Having mistaken that the father sent him away because he witnessed the father's scandalous affair with the maid Peng, he refused to pick up calls from the father in school. Ton, the boy, felt very desolated as all his friends love to play jokes on him as he was new. Ton then discovered a friend, Vatien, who was the ghost of the boy who drowned in the old pool outside the Dorm. Ton tried to saved and free Vatien from having to undergo the repeated drowning every ghost who died of an accident, have to experience until they get reincarnated.

Halfway through the show, I paused to help mama (my aunt) to bring Jimson down to send him off in a cab for his weekly accupunctual therapy at Toa Payoh. Nevertheless, "the Dorm" was a story of an extraordinary friendship; forgivence between a guilty father and his son; and the motherly-love between the headmistress and her students. Nice.

Well, after which I made my 2nd attempt at trying to solved the difficult ISYS 2059's assignment on excel. Just couldn't figure out the appropriate Sintax or computing command-formula to get the data that's required. Sigh.

Overall, not so bad a day. I wasn't late at school. Sweet called me to say "I miss you too". It's contenting enough. That moment just made my heart feel lightened as if a worry was allevated.
