India President...


Was kinda forced by my brother to attend the dialogue session with the President of India, AP J Abdul Kalam, this morning. I had to skip my lab in the morning to make sure I got changed and got to SBS on time. The thought of me attending make up lab turns me off. Nonetheless, we reached there at 11a.m. We then sat inside the auditorium and waited for the President to arrive. We waited for quite long, so long that by 1p.m., he still didn't arrive. I was so bored that I was falling asleep. Damn. If I had known that he's going to take so long, I would have come later and I wouldn't have to skip my bloody lab. Had to go for stupid make up on next wed which is supposed to be my free day...urgh~


After what seemed like infinity, the India President finally arrived. Either it was my lack of sleep or that I didn't really understand what he was talking abt, I struggled to keep myself awake throughout the whole dialogue! After the dialogue ended, my bro, his frens and myself were supposed to have a quick lunch before moving over to the research lab. We had buffet style North Indian food for lunch, however, the food had turned cold, so it tasted bad. I really couldn't think of anything good that had happened at all...haha. We had to rush our lunch as we had to reach the lab before the Indian Pres. In the end, we were too late, thus we dun have to carry on accompaning the Pres anymore.

In conclusion, although it is a privilege to be given a chance to come so close to the President of India, I felt that I've wasted more time actually. I missed my lab in the morning, my computing lecture and tutorial, half of my lunch and my sleep!! However, I can't blame my brother for that lah, cause I know he didn't forsee that also.

I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling the puzzles apart. Questions of science, science and progress, do not speak as loud as my heart... (quoted from the song The scientist by Coldplay)
