There are days when I go to school and feel like it's a complete waste of time. Today is such a day. I did nothing the whole day, just sitting around and listening to aimless yakking. Sometimes you just wish to not go to school, then you think about how irresponsible you will be especially to your group mates and you retract that idea.

I woke up late for school today (8.35am and lessons start at 9) and ended up having to take a cab to school.(The cab fare was a freaking S$15 +++!) It doesn't happen very often.(this waking up late thing) The last time I was late for school/work was when I was at OOCL. I was having a bad dream last night, and was still dreaming when I pulled myself out of bed. I could feel that "half-awakeness" as I hurriedly brush my teeth, changed and ran out of the house. I still found time to have friendly banter in broken Hokkien with my grandma while wearing my shoes though.

She was checking on her plants when I went, "Ah ma ah!!! Why didn't you wake me up!!!!"

Then she said, "See la. At night don't sleep. Then in the morning always cannot wake up. How I know you are going to school in the morning? Sometimes you morning session, sometimes you afternoon session. Anyway, your brother just left also."

So I said, "I told you yesterday that today is full day what!"

Then she replied, "haiya. never mind la. once in a while late it's ok." And she laughed.

I reached school at 9.15am, and the lecturer started teaching only at 9.30a.m. I'm still wondering whether I should go to school tomorrow because it's just going to be another 3 hours of aimless yakking.
