Your Day Will Come, The Past Is Gone
Okay, so you might be wondering what happened to all the Calvin and Hobbes comic strips. Well, I figured that it's getting kinda boring. But the comics are fine anyway...
I witnessed something interesting yesterday while I was in the car with my dad. There were two women. Probably from Middle East or somewhere near there. As a guy walked past them, they stopped him and asked him something. Whatever it was, the guy responded by shaking his hand as if saying 'don't have'. Okay, so maybe they were tourists and didn't have a map or something like that. Then, I watched as they stopped a man on his handphone and asked him something too. One of the women did an action with her right hand. Something that most probably meant 'eat'. My dad said that she was asking for money. True enough, after a little more talking and convincing, the kind-hearted man took out his wallet and gave them some cash. The thing is, they don't look moneyless or poor at all. Well, they had handbags, normal Middle East clothes and in fact, they look healthy and fine.
Sometimes, I wish I'd never had skipped school for a few days. Yeah, it might be fun to imagine that your friends are stuck in school listening to the boring teacher while you're having a blast. It might be fun to skip school but when you come back, you wished that you had never skipped school. Just like me, I was thrilled when I found out that I was going to Hong Kong. I thought 'who cares if you haven't done your homework, you can always do it when you come back'. BIG MISTAKE. When I came back, I realized that I had plenty of work to be done and until now, some hasn't even been done. Truth is, I don't even bother to ask about some of the work given when I was away. So, the lesson learnt here is never do your work till the very last minute when you can always do it now.
Its kinda sad to know that yesterday was our last Sejarah lesson with Teacher Joel. Now, its back to the normal boring lessons with ________. His lessons were really interesting. I realized that it was easier to pay attention and not have my focus elsewhere. Besides, his method of teaching and getting us to remember stuff was funny too. I sure am going to miss him and it won't only be me; the whole class too. Well, I guess everything happy will eventually come to an end. Just like Hong Kong. I just wanted to thank him for the amazing and fun lessons we had together.
Well, I'm gonna have to stop now. Like I said, everything happy will eventually come to an end. Haha ;P
