First Day High

I had my first day of class in MBA last Friday. I mean last last Friday coz I was already absent last Friday. I was expecting something different but to my dismay I found things to be almost the same as college. It feels like dating a guy you swore you would never see again and hoping he’d change but finding out he didn’t ..forgive the analogy, I’m currently watching Grey’s Anatomy. Anyways, to elaborate further… 1.You still introduce yourself to the whole class; I was almost expecting to be told to wear name tags. 2.The classrooms have improved a lot. The desks are almost spotless but an occasional vandalism here and there still makes an appearance. I didn’t find my fave vandal though…that drawing of button with the words “push button to eject teacher” 3.There is still that student who hangs on to every word the teacher says. He seems to make it a mission in life to finish whatever statement the teacher leaves hanging. I hate that student. 4.There is still that smart kid who has the answer to every question. I hate that kid. 5.The teachers are still made from hell. Giving assignments on the first day of class, WTF, talk fast and speak in tongues…epistemological triangulation? Gimme a break. I still hate teachers. 6.I still have panic attacks at the thought speaking to the whole class or be called for recitation. 7.My attention span has further decreased. My mind wanders off every few seconds. 8.Time still seems to stand still during classes…3 hours seems like forever. 9.The books, modules and reading materials still possess this strange magical ability to induce sleep. 1o.There is still that cute guy that makes you look forward to each class ;) I know…I know I should quit complaining. Whoever said that going back to school is a piece of cake? I was maybe a tad disappointed for how things went out but I promised myself to relish the experience and learn and enjoy hating it :)
