Mean people are mean

Been a while since i last blogged about real life happenings, and now heres a shit tons of them.
 
- First -
 
Drivers alert! For your information, you, yes you. The far right lanes on the highways are for FAST and SHAMELESS drivers. Another is that if the ratio of the available space behind you is smaller than your front ones, it means you should move to a slower lanes, one is of course the fact that you are really driving that slow, another is that the driver behind must be tailgating you so for your own safety, just let him overtake you.
 
Traffic Jams! Its not about giving a HARD BRAKE and slowly accelerate to cover up the gaps. That will ultimately cause traffic jams! You decelerate at a steady rate and eventually stop if neccessary, or keep moving even at a slow pace to keep the traffic behind moving.
 
Another thing is to keep the lanes you'll be taking early, do not do sharp turns in the middle of the road at the very last minute, you'll cause the car to brake and eventually cause traffic jams!

The whole of this week has been crazily packed with assignments and project due dates! Thrusday night i rushed untill 2am or so, toke a nap till 5am and continue my powerpoint slides. I ended up with a sickening stomach and was already feeling like vomitting. Not to mention the past 3 days i had been sleeping at like 10.30pm or so, and didnt get to play a single bit of WoW at all. Amazing.

Its a very bad day today for Friday. On top of my stomach feeling unwell, i have to rushed and finish my slides at last minute and present with a starving stomach. After which i'm completely worn out and still went Chemistry Tutorial. Who wouldve have the mood to do work after a whole long week of stress and this particular tutorials have no whatsoever assesment. The usual talkative me went chit-chatting and guess what? Our tutor called us to do one of the questions. Thats fine, if thats how you want to embarass me in front of the class. Here comes the worse part.
 
He actually called our lecturer, and purposely made today's exercizes a graded assesment AFTER assigned the questions to my friend and I. Come on, with all due respect my dear tutor, you just base your personal feelings into academic grading. Its inevitable in many cases due to dilemna, but this? You already have the malice intention to ground us right from the begining because we talked? And he went complaining about how he's not earning a salary and what not, and his extra effort paid into making this tutorial a resourceful one is not getting anything in return. What do you have to complain about seriously? If you're so sentimental and calculative about your effort and your 0 salary, quit the job. Stop getting your riled emotions into a student's academic downfall. You're like a crybaby seeking revenge honestly.
 
Now the worst. He told me friend afterwards it is not actually a graded assesment. Are you playing Jedi Mindtricks on us? If i hadnt mention a lot of students already hating you to the core for your overly strict grading for the reports, and i've seen you correcting grammar in a chemistry report. For serveral times already. "...the following measurements is taken into account for the...." and you'd actually notice the "is" and have it circled and correct it with "are". I'm sorry, although you're still my tutor and i'll still do the tutorial / reports properly, but i've lost complete respect for you.
 
Of which i want to just mention a teacher in my past, Mrs Lee. My sec4 class teacher, and i'd dare to say i've never had so much respect for a teacher ever untill her. I still remember fontly one of the phrase she mentioned, it goes along the line of "A wise old owl on the tree. The more quiet it is, the more it hears. The more it hears, the more it learns.". The two of you are definitely on two opposite side of my Respect-O-Compas. Enough of him, totally ruined my day.

Went into Electrical Laboratory sessions after chemistry tut. If its not any worse, the whole lab is packed with twice the load of students due to the fact that Monday was a holidya and their replacement is in the same slot same time with ours.
 
Thats fine.
 
We're forced around to find an oscillascope to use.
 
Thats fine.
 
We ran into a more complicated, more high-tech oscillascope. We're completely clueless on how to operate it although they look generally similar on the outside. All we are trying to ask is how to get the waveform generated because no matter what buttons we push, we couldnt get the wave to appear on the meter. So we seeked the attention of the replacement class's tutor for help. He came over, and started telling us about how if this is a working environment, we wouldve be in serious problems because we couldnt ADAPT. Again and again whenever we're really stucked with a problem and we've spent over 10+ minutes just trying to solve a minor problem, he came over and patronized us like there is no tomorrow. I swear, he really did patronize us that BADLY.
 
What is WRONG with all these peoples? After which when the replacement class and their tutor left, we're left behind with ourselves and our beloved Mr. Lee for the lab. The all of us love you Mr. Lee. Your tutorial classes and labs rocks. Speaking of which, i'd really prefer my Lab Demonstrator, Ms Yeoh more than any other lab demo, and for your info, your new hair colour is nice!

My friend actually commented our male chemistry lecturer is very much like a womaniser, and that most girls would drool...i mean smile when having eye contact with him. I dare not look into his eyes at all, gives me the creeps and the wrong signals.

LesGuoNelle is indeed still around. We still have that one wavelength that sometimes others cant pick up, of which i'd thought its long lost lol. Just how Jan told the other 2 of us about the electrifying "zap zap" thing, we laughed out REALLY loud like no one's business in the cafeteria, until the point that even someone from the beverage booth would hear us.
 
That is all, another entry into my blog and still writing!
