Because i was bored. SHARK po yan ah, Hindi tuna na tinubuan ng madaming ngipin o kaya barracuda/
I need to learn how to lip-read. ASAP. My soft spoken professor in EnE31 makes it hard for me to concentrate in his class because I can’t understand a word he says. Aside from his barely audible voice, it’s difficult to take-down notes because of his chicken-scratch handwriting.
BARELY AUDIBLE VOICE + CHICKEN SCRATCH HANDWRITING = SLEEPING TIME!!!!
He wants us to be on time, and dismisses us at exactly 2:30. So I have to rush to Engg for my next class (and the prof in my nex t subject doesn’t tolerate tardiness either). He’s a perfectionist and very demanding. He expects all of us to participate in hid boring class and expects (more of requires actually) us to speak in straight English when asking him questions. He said that back in his college days, they were all required to speak in English (and that was in the 1960s pa ata) and that the Philippines was the 3rd English speaking nation in the world.
He teaches graduate school and I think after a decade of teaching in the academe, the last time he taught undergraduate subjects was years ago. So there. I am still left a whole semester to endure his boring lectures.
