The unfinished business

THURSDAY...
Sickness... examination... thesis.... sickness... examination... thesis... Naively, everyone thought it would be a finished business after the amendment for the thesis.. However, on a sickly thursday evening, my phone beeped and it says "tell all students under me not to go back home before they finished their thesis. Extend it to 100 pages".. What the #@$#! I had just got back my 1st draft and were to amend it to be submitted 2mr and now We have like less than 24 hours to write about 35 pages of academic writing. Well hulloooo~~~ what's the point of having workshops when you could just send an irresponsibble SMS just like that. Whatmore i just got high fever with flu and cough on the exact same day? What am i suppose to do? Let my brain get drained and burnt to complete this dissertation? Monday have to print hard cover and you'll be flying to a different part of the world on tues for a week.

Whatever it is, i rested myself till the next morning and start making amendments before submitting the 2nd draft... You could have just told us earlier and save us from despising you!

FRIDAY...
So.. most of us did not did what he said and just submitted what we can today. After submitting Guan sent me to PK. Doctor said i need rest, quite serious fever with minimal cough. " You should sleep for a day or two". How to sleep so much wor i still have dissertation and finals... Then i receive another sms " you may submit your 3rd draft on 27/4, amend it thoroughly, format, spelling, read 5 times before submitting" and to quote " WORK HARD AND SMART, PRODUCE HIGH QUALITY OUTPUTS" ... no problem i still can take it.. but about 100 pages... what for? what's the point of squeezing unnescessary information to produce high quality of thickness in a book. THICKNESS isn't equivalent to QUALITY!!!! Ok ok not exactly unnecessary information. i understand you just want a high quality outputs but you should understand we have finals now and dissertation ISNT EVERYTHING. and and i just felt that it's the ego in you that makes you treat us so. Just because all of your students do a 100 page of dissertation doesnt mean you are any higher class than other lecturers okie.


Lunch hour...waiting for the counter to open. Hey the information desk lady was real rude. i kindly, nicely, gently asked "hi, can i know where can i get the number"? there the lady answered rudely and with a dark face replying " you can have everything you want when we are opened"... Wey.. dont know how to answer nicely mer... sick person also have to face healthy person's emo face~~~ And Malaysian preached " Budi Bahasa Budaya Kita".. Tepuk dada tanya selera... do you ever preach what you talk? Loudly and widely advertised but culture remains~~~ What are the cultures? Have no sense of etiquette, does not understand the meaning of queues, even cross road also dont know how to cross faster! You're not moulded to act so...Education doesnt teach us so.. Where do you learn then?

Haha.. dont ask me why i put this up! probably i just want to put it in memory for my first and last time visiting PK as a patient!



Medicines....My first from PK over nearly 3 years...

I doubt if i can finish it my dissertation..44 pages~~~ but there's not a "no" in trying. Gonna try my best!
