This semester is looking pretty cold. literally.

I started out the day knowing that my first two classes will be in the new classrooms of the School of Economics. These classrooms are reputedly nice so I know my semester will be in comfort. I'll post pictures of the rooms here within the next few days. I never imagined that those rooms would be cold as hell even though I'm at the far side of the room.

Early this morning, I stepped into the already air-condition-cooled room hoping that there would be no first class for my second semester. Though I'm really excited that my first class would be taught by Prof. Solita Monsod, I was not into the "study-mood" self I want myself to be in. So I sat there at the corner waiting for time to pass by and hit the halfway mark between 10 and 11. But much to my dismay, she arrived around 5 minutes before that mark. Anyways her subject is the one I wanted to take since the start of my econ life but due to schedule problems - my schedule hating me, I wasn't. Moving on, after the first class in one of the new econ classrooms, the next was in another new econ classroom(just finished a semester ago). I was shocked to see the interior of this classroom. It felt like I was in a hotel conference room or one of those classrooms abroad. It was totally NICE. I felt sleepy during this time due to the fact that again, it is damn cold, and next, the hour was not friendly to the avid learner.

After two classes in the school of economics, i expected to be in fresh-air zone for my next class. But wait, hello trick, think again. another cold classroom. COME ON. I was trying to keep myself awake because of the time and because of the cool atmosphere. Good thing the class was lively and noisy, to say the least that it helped me in keeping my consciousness up.

After the class, I barely have time to run to CAL and jog up the 10 flights of stairs for my last class of the day. The climb to the 5th floor of that building was staggering. Well, right now, I was expecting another cold classroom because maybe, another lucky break for me. It was an aircon-ed actually...


AIR-CONTINUOUS.


so much for the first day of classes. btw, tomorrow, I am sure of another airconditioned room and that cursed aircontinuous room in CAL. (i have 4 days of french this semester due to the integrated nature of the class im taking)


Alors voila...

Au revoir!

Any distraction, a few days before the start of classes is always welcome.

It was just one of those times when everything went loose for a moment. I had nothing to worry about except enjoying myself with the company of friends.

on to other thoughts...

I hate how humans have the capacity to choose something they are not comfortable with.
