Today, quite a good day in school. Did my little bit for the class, peeled double sided tape for people :P. Was a good day with lessons too, not too slack, not too stressful.
Hong Kong students came to our school yesterday. They were on some Residential Programme or something. Students from different school in Hong Kong. 2 male students got attached to our class. Lol, I spoke to them in my super bad cantonese...well, at least they could understand me...;)
Went to the new National Library with C today to study. Met XL, S & D on the bus.
@ NL, we actually wanted to tour the place first...but then...we were just to excited to study :P.
So we settled on the 7th floor. The study area is very good. Theres spacious white tables, with plugs for laptops...I think theres wireless internet connection too...how cool!
But the place wasn't all that cool...toilets were UGLY!!! ugly tiled walls, cheap materials for doors/locks/cubicles and ugly square sinks.
And the gardens they were talking about? You won't believe how small they are...maybe the size of my room.
And the views they were raving about...bleh...all around were buildings...the only interesting view was the road 7 levels down....
Went to visit YT with XL after that. We didn't know where to go at first, but being girls, we asked for directions (unlike macho guys who die die also won't ask...) The baggage guy @ the hotel was really nice...he even brought us out of the hotel to point us the directions...
We walked through this really ulu place...then climbed up this hill of houses, only to find a dead end and a fence baricading Mt. E. in. So, we had to walk the long way in. Inside, we got lost...we went up the medical building instead of the hospital. G**, it was soooo ULU!!! I had the impression that Mt. E. was this prestigious cool private hospital...but bleh...it's super run down. At least the hospital was better...but not much.
I discovered many ironies in the hospital...
1) They want their patients to rest well...but they wake them at unearthly hours to get them to take their medicine.
Can't someone invent some medicine that doesn't need to be taken at specific times...
2) They want patients to have a conduvice convalencing environment...but they blair out announcements over their bloody audio system
can't they even make the effort to go tell the patients nicely...
3) ...food sucks...
can't they even make food fit for consumption? Must everything have less sugar/oil/salt etc.???
bleh...
See YT also don't know what to do with her...poor girl...only she can help herself.
you know you love me
