Maybe adults really don't grow up?

Every Fridays and Saturdays I attend classes. The classes are for a very important subject in the ACCA course, therefore many people attend the classes during those two days. So every time I attend the class I get a great deal of discomfort and I feel really irritated. Here's why - the class is always packed like a tin of sardines, and the air-con cannot really cool the place down thoroughly. By now, I am sure you can already imagine how the condition is like having a stuffy lecture hall packed with people that keep on yakking.

The lecturer is there trying to convey her materials and the class is hardly ever focused on her. Yelling from the front so that the ones at the back can catch what she is saying is already a pain for her. Students then conveniently make matters worse by talking. Is there really so much to talk about?

Time and again, the lecturer has expressed how much she detests students making so much noise and disrupting the class. She was very, very close from leaving the class the night before as a matter of fact. Sadly, students do not really learn from the experience, and the students' lack of respect and discipline simply keep repeating itself over and over again every week!

The surprising part is this - at least 90% of the students are students aged 19 years old and above, and some already working like myself. As far as I know, people at the age SHOULD already be matured enough to behave themselves. Note that I use the word, 'should' because I do not seem to see any maturity in these bunch of people. Personally, I really cannot see why it is so difficult to just keep quiet and listen to what the lecturer has to say for 3 hours on Fridays nights and 6 hours on Saturdays. Considering the fact that most of them come from work on Fridays I am pretty sure they have already done a fair bit of talking for the better half of the day. 6 hours in a Saturday isn't too long of a time for someone to keep quiet and listen attentively, considering all of us have 24 hours in a day.

Writing this reminds me of my previous post 'ADULTS DON'T GROW UP ANYMORE' because from what I see, people that are supposed to behave like adults are acting far from what an adult should be.

the price of love - take 3

Deep down inside each and every one of us lies an innate power to do things for another person. Some things that can be beyond explanation, sometimes even silly and sometimes just really impossible to imagine. What I am referring to really is the ability of us human beings to care for someone else. Actually if you think about it, all living beings on this planet show the innate ability to care for one another. It's amazing how one person can show so much care to another person without requiring a reason. I definitely admire those who are able to care for another person selflessly. I may not know my ability to care for another person but I know I'd give it a good shot in caring for someone I love - parents, siblings, girlfriend. Personally, I think the will to care for another person will come naturally like the rainbow after a rainy day. I think inside us resides a little vault of emotions that entwines itself to form a chemistry of emotions that manifests itself as a plethora ...

Entrepreneurship....

Every now and then, some people make it big time in the business world either from, pioneering a fresh new business strategy to improving something that is thought to be already at it's best. Entrepreneurs can be found in virtually any part of this world. I guess, when you think about an entrepreneur in a global perspective, the first few people you might think of would be - William H. Gates who founded Microsoft, Steve Jobs who brought to us the iPod or even Warren Buffet arguably the best investor in THE world. Bring it down to a narrower perspective, the local scene - Tony Fernandes co-founder of AirAsia and Teh Hong Piow founder of Public Bank Berhad (equivalent to a PLC), and of course there are many more! I guess, there are times when we sit down and ponder, "how exactly did these people turn out to be who they are?". Were they born with such innate ability? Did they have parents that constantly gave them inspiration to be their own boss? Did they have a natural eye...

Early morning breakfast at a mamak store!

affiliate program Morning breakfast looks like this from the table. A quiet spot just outside the restaurant, cooling and comfortable. :) Mornings are a good time to have quiet time to just reflect on things and just let the mind relax before starting it off. Like any other Malaysian, food is of imperative importance! After all, can't let the mind work on an empty stomach now can we? Thosai Masala is definitely the way to go to start one's day off! Healthy food and plenty carbohydrate from the potato mix inside it. Hmmmmmm.......... mix your mouth all wait eh?  affiliate program
