YES! I FINALLY FINISHED MY SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY REPORT!
12 pages leh! And i only started doing it on tuesday night :) ahahah im such a chiongster. Anyway, it is true that inspiration strikes at the 11th hour. I was only left with the summary/learning points for my report today, but for the whole day, i had no idea what i wanted to write.
Instead, after school i had dinner at Ichiban Sushi (again) with Kennard! HAHAHA I had my usual soba, mini octopus, and shared 2plates of salmon, 1plate of tamago, 1plate of fish roe, 1plate of prawn sushi, 1plate of this cream thingy and chawanmushi with kennard while he had his meal whatever it was called. And our bill totalled to $60 bucks! LOL But we splitted our bill half-half lah, so it was $30 each. After that as per our routine, i walked to his bus-stop and took my bus home lo.
So, when i reached home, i was supposed to start on my report. But again, no inspiration whatsoever. Instead i searched for quotes on prejudice and discrimination to add into my report haha And then i coloured and font-edited the quotes and captions for the pictures. By then it was about 9.30 and i was feeling really exhausted. So, i went to sleep LOL Okay la not completely sleep, just, resting my eyes and at the same time, trying to figure out what to write for my summary. Because i REFUSE to repeat the stuff i have stated in my mainpoints.
So anyway, i woke up at 10.30 with a rough idea on what to write LOL Like my previous summary, i started with "Prejudice blinds us" HAHAHA and then randomly crap along about how it prevents us from seeing what lies beneath and stuff i experienced in cambodia that made me feel that way, and about how unfair life is and how we should treasure what we have. And somehow, i managed 1 whole paragraph, and then 2, and then 3... and then 8 LOL And before i knew it, i have written 3pages worth of summary LOL
By the time i clicked "save", it was already 12AM, 1minute pass my dateline which was 11.59PM of 8th May. By the time i sent it, it was 12.01AM. And then i went back to my summary and added in pictures, and sent it again at 12.20AM haha and then i went back to read my whole report, corrected 1 or 2 grammar mistakes and some highlighting of the main points and then sent it again at 12.52PM LOL
Yes i know, 12.20 and 12.52 is way past the dateline, but you never know, you know? He's a really coool and easy-going teacher and he might just simply accept my latest report lol Better be save then sorry what. Anyway the contents are 99.8% identical in all 3reports i sent in. Just that the 1st one no pictures in summary, the 2nd one got pictures in summary and the third one i corrected 1 or 2 grammar mistakes LOL
So, after i sent in my final, final, final report, i exchanged report with Bihshean LOL Her report was very personal, recounting from the 2sessions we had before departure, the touch-down at siem reap international airport, the street children we met on the first day, the anjali house kids and the things we did there and stuff, like a diary of some sort.
She commented that my report was very textbook-like (I take that as a compliment okay! Means i pro what, can publish book liao :P) LOL And i admit, i write it in a very matter-of-factly way. LOL It's weird though, while im good at expressing my emotions in life, i could never pen it down in words. But she said my summary was personal enough. While her main contents were personal, and summary fact-tional, my main contents were fact-tional while my summary was personal, recounting my experiences and feelings and stuff. LOL well i hope the summary's enough to make up for the textbook-like feeling it gives off LOL
Anyway im just glad that all this is over. I can rest for now, till tomorrow. And then i have to start chionging for next week's tutorials cause i have not done a single one cause of the report :X
This is just one of the quotes i found, though i did not include it in my report:
If we were to wake up some morning and find that everyone was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other causes for prejudice by noon. ~George Aiken
