Day 18 [19.10.2009] First day of school
- Tuesday, October 20, 2009 -
Finally the long awaited first day of school.
Since it's at 4pm, had time in the morning and went shopping with friends. Before shopping, it's time for lunch so tried out the Mensa (canteen) food. oh man. what a lousy system of getting food. will try not to step in there unnecessarily. it's way better to come home to cook (:
ps. xueting has fell in love with cooking for herself cos she gets to decide what she wants to eat and more often than not, the "instant" mixes or her own creativity creates tasty food and so she normally overcooks and whoa, she's so gonna be fat when she's back in singapore.so after shopping, headed to class but couldn't find the classroom. so was late for class and whoa, it's just a small tutorial room where lecture was held. it's called seminar room. my god. statistics cohort small la but also no need so small room right? not only all the tables were taken up, people sat on the floor behind the tables. and i STOOD throughout the lecture for 1.5 HRS!! why didn't I sit on the floor? cos i'm too tiny to see the screen if i sat on the floor.
what's next? my biggest fear: lectures in german. During orientation, I could understand almost everything the teacher had said in german and I thought I would be fine for lectures. HAHA I'm wrong. cos lectures use specific terms. and I totally don't know the german statistic terms. so the whole lecture, no matter how hard I tried to catch the FAST GERMAN lesson, I still catch no ball. and I've decided to follow my initial plan: get the English textbook and mug at my own pace. I may be faster than lecturer oh. haha. I wish~
so, since I have the drive to read textbook now, I better get them tomorrow before my drive fades away. haha.
and people, please help me solve a shopping problem. today, I saw a SUPER DUPER nice coat.
#1 it's beige white colour => easily dirtied
#2 it's 72% polyester => not very warm
#3 uber nice => chic look (it's REALLY PRETTY!!! like REALLLLLYYYY!!!!)
it's 49.90 euros = more than 100 sgd (but this is the cheapest winter coat i've found so it's considered reasonable for winter coat)
should I buy? pretty or warm more important? haha. my canadian friend justine said mayb looking chic does pay off. hahahaha. help! thanks!
