first day back
<28 hrs earlier>
stuck in com lab doin hand-in lab, point to note, simulated annealing dun go crazy with the temperature, TS interchange or not parameters better stay more or less near original, else, low virtual memory, put simply com goes whack, processes stuff at a snail's pace, can feel blood pressure rising by the minute man! Finally cat n i get thru the lab, we did pretty gd work i reckon, answered a total of 4 qns outta 5, the words "construct table" in qn 5 making us juz a little antsy, leading 2 the prudent decision 2 skip it *o*. Finally itz finished, poppin it in I.G's pigeonhole, we make a mad dash 2 catch the lift that's tryin to evade us. 20 mins later, alight fr the train at Camberwell ( belgrave line), we're sitting comfortably in C's hse taking sphaghetti n sipping aloe veras.
time to leave for glen w, we get there in plenty of time, spotted the rest, grabbed mochas n bubble tea, had to wait outside red box, owners were late. After an eternity of waiting, the owners rock up n the night kicks off. Trooping up the flight of stairs, we're treated 2 a flurry of incandescent lights, ushered 2 the back room and now we gotta operate the machine.. somehow after 10 mins and still no luck with the machine, we decide 2 call for help, the person enters shows us the right way 2 operate it. We order our drinks, honey lemon mostly, had abt 250 buckz 2 max out. C kicked off the K session with an Eng song, cant rembr watz the title now tho~ i'm next, of coz a whole list of chinese ones, from Jeff chang, A-mei,show,Evonne Hsu,Jolin Tse,to the Eng ones like S club 7, to Jap ones, that song fr 1 litre of tears,utada hikaru,boa, the evening was a blast, time passes fast in that atmosphere, b4 we knew it the clockhand was at 2 and we knew the night was almost over, time to "check-out". I hit the record, 46 missed calls.
wake up time this morn was 7.45am, managed it with an effort (thank you Lord), sped all the way 2 hughesdale, took train 2 city and entered class at 9.45am. Gomen sensei then take my seat, taking a quick glance around, only 6 peepz including me, wat was goin on? finally everyone turns up and we progress fr knowing the impt jap dates 2 actual sentences, kabuki no kippu o ni mai arimasu kara issho ni ikimasen ka, etc, no kanji 2day abit cut abt tat. breakie comes and i drag C 2 make a quick purchase of white mocha swirl, surprisingly gd!! (recommended)(@o@). Dashed off at 12.15, stopped back at home b4 continuin 2 workplace and mind slips back to daydream mode.the customers are the topz, convos were enlightening, informative, ranging fr a bad day, to get-away wkends to serious stuff parameds, medibank cons, etc. all in all not a bad day. thank God i got thru it *whew* [ breathes a sigh of relief ]
