entry (8): surviving the seminar



congratulate yourself, you managed to salvaged that little bit of sanity left.

the walking barrel/cheese/mamistahay sure knows how to execute "torture" and i bet even sydney bristow would give up given the situation. talk about living hell. hmf, i hate "cheese".

anyhow, what about that seminar then?
for starters i didn't sleep when i attended. i was staying over ken's place and could not risk it with oversleeping so the next best thing is to stay awake the whole time. thing is, when you don't sleep and attend something like a seminar/lecture/mass/language class, you would likely end up feeling like a zombie. point is, i'd rather be dead. so on went the seminar, with dramas along the way (hi to pixie with that) and tasteless coffee. not to mention the over-puffed-air-stuffed bread with whatever in between.

anyhow, lunch was tolerable. a compensation at least for the "air-conditioning system" that seemed to me back there to be doing the exact opposite of its very purpose. imagine having been told to wear something formal, so on we we
nt with long sleeves and collars only to be "sweated" out in the end. thank g-d i didn't prepared that much, i could've worn a gown for cheese's sake.

the miraculous part is that i managed to stay alive in the end. how i did that , i really don't know. or maybe these things helped a bit:

1. pack of cigarettes

2. crazy classmates that were also bored

3. going out to the bathroom but actually to chat/sit outside/take pictures etc.

4. and yeah, secretly cursing the cheese


bottom line is: sleep before going to a seminar, and no more long sleeves.
