An opinion on opiniated people
[am typing this in class, heehee]
It's good to have your own opinions, but I am beginning to think I don't like opiniated people. And yes, I see the irony in me giving my opinion on opiniated people. But back to the point-
During my tutorial yesterday, a group was presenting and the girl seated to my left was obviously not very happy with their presentation. She made it plain enough, for she kept raising her hands in despair, and saying, 'what', 'that's not true', 'how can that be', 'NO' aloud. Sure, it certainly is fine to disagree, but I don't see why she needed to express it in such a condescending manner.
And after class, eager to make her opinions known, she went straight up to the presenter and said, 'How can you even say that...' I think the poor presenter was rather taken aback. Couldn't she just have said something along the lines of 'Hey, can I clarify...'
Blah. Don't know why, but I was really annoyed for most of the day.
Anyway, it was quite an enjoyable tutorials. The presentation was about huge MNCs including Wal-Mart, McDonalds and Merrill Lynch. I just enjoy reading/hearing about the stories of big companies, just so amazing how they manage to change the world, and we let them do so.
Yesterday wasn't exactly the most fortunate day of my life.
First, I was quite horrified to meet my professor at the gym. Just feels weird to see your professor pedaling furously at the stationary bike, and then saying 'you can do it!' as he sees you on the leg press machine. (Actually, I certainly could do it- used a really light weight yesterday, haha) I'm happy to keep my impression of professors being stuck in their offices with their noses burried in journals all day.
Next, while practising piano, I had a sudden stomachache. And it was so painful that I barely made it up the flight of steps to the busstop, and had to call NicNIc to give me a lift back to PGP. And I groaned for about 1 hour before I managed to get some sleep. I'm feeling much better now though, thankfully. It's been like this for two days- I hope I don't get another onslaught of sudden pain again later.
The good part- RAYMOND CAI finally came on MSN again. hahaha.
