Supposedly it was to be a pleasant day, with me and my classmates enjoying the last few moments of lessons together, and some even came armed with cameras preparing to take group shots together.

But who knows? There came a sudden turn of a series of unfortunate events and it left the majority of us dealing with high emo-ness and sian-sationess at the end of the day.

Aparently, our Print Media lecturer was having one of his mood swings today - I guessed after he discovered he lost another strand of hair just this morning or something. After reprimanding one of our classmates for talking in class, even though he did not, midway during the tutorials he started harping about our attitude towards learning, pin-pointing about our punctuality, attentiveness in class, class participation and bah bah bah...

And then went on to frighten us by telling what life is going to be like for our degree modules, with the lecturers becoming even more demanding and more stringent and so on... And after what he said today regarding his marking of our exam scripts such that hardly anyone gets an A grade, I'm prepared to flunk my exams next week.

Before we could get over with the lecturer's scoldings, the second unfortunate event have to turn up with the news that the grouping for our degree programme has changed again.

Instead of the initial plan to break the class up into 20-20, now it becomes 30-10, with the 10 having to join another class. Out of the 10, 3 were actually our very close friends and were upset that they couldn't be together with the majority of us in the 30.

Anyway if I were them I'd also feel the same sian-sation because, the rest of the 7 are people I hardly know. And joining another new class means having to meet new friends starting from scratch again. I'd rather be in a class where I already know much of the people and it makes communication and doing work much more easier as well.

At the moment I could only hope their appeal to stay in the 30 would be successful.
