Week 3
Day 2

2nd day of the 3rd week already! You know the feeling whenever you have finally started to settle down on a place and you found out you will be leaving again? I’m having that feeling now. Had the same lessons again, programming. We finished chapter 4 within a day! 4 chapters in a short few days, really fast right?

Lunch was next and we had the meal that 4 people could easily share. We had many eyes on us again, but I think they are actually looking at Satish. After the interaction that we had yesterday, he seemed to have attracted a lot of girls.

We tried out the yoghurt after lunch and left for class soon after. We covered the whole of chapter 4 within 1 and a half hour and moved on to complete the tutorial 4. Time really seems to move really quickly, too fast indeed. We got 2 tests next week! After the lesson ended, we made our way to canteen 2 to have dinner. We had dinner while waiting for Tom to arrive. He is the friendly person from China whom we had met not long ago. He volunteered to bring us outside of the school to check to food and stalls out. He even brought us to the internet café there to check it out. He told us that there was many of such internet cafes around as many people could not afford to buy a computer. Soon after, we went to get some groceries as well as some bread for our breakfast tomorrow. Tom joined us in the girl’s bunk where we had a very long chat with him. He told us more about his family and his background. We also found out that the hostels the students are living in do not have television!

He left about 2 hours later and we did our journals and rested for the day. I’ve learnt that we should not take advantage of the things we already have as many people cannot afford to own some things.
