Messing With my Schedule
I hate make-up classes, especially if they’re announced only a day before (worse, on the same day). I don’t like to compensate for such thing especially if I’ve already scheduled something for that time and day like making a draft or returning comments. I believe that time is gold so I’m really strict with my schedule (of course, except for school related things). I hate wasting time, that’s not in my vocabulary. As a matter of fact, I say “You’re wasting my time!” to my friends whenever they’re delaying something or whenever they keeping me from going for something that is useless.
Yesterday, I should have only taken my midterm examination in one of my major subjects and I was free to go home. It took me about an hour and a half to finish answering 100 brain damaging questions. But because my instructor had set for a make-up class which was originally from 1-3PM but was later moved to 3-5PM, I was forced not to go home. Sorry, I’m not that type of student who skives classes. It was really annoying. Good thing, I didn’t planned to go out with my high school friends on that day, or else, they would have killed me by now.
I finished answering my examination by 11:00. All-in-all, I had four hours to kill. Going back home and return to school three hours later was never an option to me on how I wanted to kill my four-hour break because it’s uneconomical and I didn’t want to spend an additional of at least 1.5 hours in a jeep. That left me with two choices: either go to the library to continue reading Life of Pi by Yann Martel and abuse the Internet service or go to the mall and watch a flick. I chose the latter and I was able to tag two friends to go with me.
Because it was unplanned (yet another on the spot decision), I didn’t bring any street clothes. You see, we’re not allowed to go to the malls — worse, to the movie house — wearing our uniform. But I had no options left. Besides, my two friends told me that they’re doing that (going to the cinemas while wearing their uniform) always and were never caught.
We bought deluxe tickets for Iron Man but instead of heading to the deluxe seats we went to the premier seats. Lol. Bad. Bad. Bad. There was no one who was guarding the entrance to the premier seats so we climbed the stairs and we had an instant savings of Php 20.00! Lol.
Well, Iron Man is a good movie, it’s based on the Marvel Comics of the same title. The acting skills of the cast was superb. And of course, the special effects was really good. The only downside was that I was able to predict correctly a few things.
After watching Iron Man, we rushed back to school for our make-up class. Nevertheless, I had fun. XD

On time matters, I really hate being held waiting (even though sometimes it happens the other way around hehe) longer than the alloted “5 more minutes” thingy.
So you’re not allowed to go out with your uniforms on? C’mon, that seems quite unusual. You did the right thing. Rules are made and are always destined to be broken. Lol. Premier! Woot~! The first time I saw the movie’s trailer I immediately knew that it was Iron Man. I know Marvel characters pretty well.
P.S. Hope you can make the layout look in IE as it appears in FF. And where did the smilies go?

I don’t like unplanned make-up classes. It’s a good thing that most of my professors before would listen to me when I tell them not to have the make-up class. *lol*
I would’ve done the same thing about going to the premiere seats if there was no one guarding the stairs

we never have such “make up” classes here in the states–and professors are NEVER late…everything is planned and set. i dunno if that’s a good thing or bad…maybe both…i keep hearing friends from back there in the phils that they go home early coz professors don’t show up…weird. haha
anywayz..ironman is great..watched it online..cracked one..pretty good
