So much for a "holiday"...

You know what they call this scheme i'm in, taking 18 months off work to pursue my masters? Well in Malay it's called Cuti Belajar Bergaji Penuh Dengan Biasiswa (CBBP DB) or translated into English as Fully Paid Study Leave with Scholarship. But see that word "Cuti"? Yeah... It means holidays... as in wake up everyday at noon and sleep at 3 am. Holidays...as in FREEDOM to do things according to your own schedule.

But NOPE. My dream to have a 3 day weekend twice is shattered by the fact that I have classes on both Saturday and Sunday. So while people are flying back home for Eid (al-adha) on Monday and Malaysia Day on Friday... I am stuck having to attend classes. Bummer, indeed!

Anyways today is my 4th day attending class. The course is called Pavement Management System (PMS). The lecturer is a senior engineer, Mr Z from JKR. So far, I'm getting along fine with my classmates, although cliqueness is in store and I am sure I am nobody's favourite. (Everyone is so married!) But yeah, it's all good. Also. in all 4 classes, I was always the first one to arrive. Talk about being Hermione-ish.
So far, these are the subjects I'm taking. Plot twist, though... The Monday class has changed to Wednesday, and the Wednesday class has moved to Saturday, 9am -12pm. So as for right now, my off-days are on Monday and Tuesday...
