Being a RA was stressful to me, but it's getting better now.


Now I can even appreciate some of the extraordinary things that these teenagers.
Like earlier I turn on BNN in front of 2 buff-looking, beer-drinking, party-going guys, and expect them be bored and go away. Instead they stayed, and start talking stocks, and politics. They might talked in bad slangs, but they sure know about current events.


Amazing! :) 

I wonder, is it true that when you get into senior year of business degree, all presentation becomes "formal"?I had a very interesting mgmt course this term, and got to read several inspiring books. So, when it comes to presentation, naturally, I want to take a creative approach.


Our team chose ""Harry Potter" as the theme. We didn't play cute, but we put in bits that I thought would draw in some laughs (sorry team!). We had solid material, and we spent much time on designing the slides, and the presentation outlook. We were happy with our ideas, and I was happy, until the presentation day.


As I sat there and watched other teams present their materials, I realize they all took the "grown up" approach...they stood there and spoke. A couple teams did acting bits for the crucial conversation topic (which is odd, cuz we were supposed to present the "Path to Action", which is the thinking before talking). I didn't feel good about it, and suddenly, I felt small.

The thing is, I really love the way we are presenting. We are not only fun, but we have solid material. We have perfectly logical causal loop diagrams, we know what we are talking about. And on top of that, we are creative! However, the more I love our creative way, the more I felt like I don't belong...in the business world. I mean, there is no way that I can have fun in a business conference, right? So, maybe I shouldn't joke in school presentation either. And I am so much older than these undergrads, I should know better.

The presentation didn't turn out so bad. Our creative instructor adores our creative presentation, and gave us the highest mark of the whole class. (Bryan is a really funny guy who appreciate creative thoughts. So, why didn't the other team thought of it?) Still, maybe that was the last presentation that I get to act silly (or have teammates act silly). I don't know which is more sad? Being the kid in the grown-up group, or losing the most innovative part of self?

我想Mala今天應該在歡騰吧，喔不，不是Mala，而是Vancouver Island University！


沒錯，MAL-U今天正式升格為University，
不只如此，連名字都改掉了！
改得如此political，叫溫哥華島大學，簡稱「VIU」("Viewwwwww~")


從來沒有經驗過學校改名字的，
從今天起，網址地圖，還有書店裡賣的運動衣全部都要改名字，
真是個大費周章的過程呀！


連我都得要想想我的「麻辣生活誌」這個category要改成甚麼命字好呢？

 

 

不知道大家是否有同感，
生活中就是要有些「白目」的人來添加生活樂趣。


我不知道這樣的人是怎麼出現的，
是不是一群人中，專門欺負那個舉止想法最奇怪的？
還是像我們一樣，
平靜的一二個月過去後，
三月底突然搬進來一個。


他是一個看起來很像陳水扁的台灣人。
（urgh! 為什麼要是台灣人）
開始的時候他還算ok，只是看到每個人都很大聲的打招呼，
就算他英文說的不太好，還是很大聲的跟各國人交朋友。


有一次我跟衣服幫這裡一個社團去跟ESL班級作了一個Presentation，
那個新搬進宿舍的雖然是高段的ESL學生，那天也到低階的ESL班旁聽。
晚上回到宿舍碰到他，就問問他今天聽Presentation覺得怎樣，
他整個就自信滿滿的一直講說他根本不需要在那裏聽，
甚麼他上ESL課只是為了打發時間甚麼的。
（答非所問，反感）


接下來這個人就變得越來越討人厭，
每次他問問題或請人幫忙，都好像人家欠他的。
上次他問衣服溫哥華住宿的問題，
問不到好答案，
他就說「我想你們住溫哥華這麼久了，一定會有認識朋友嘛！」
（整個就想跟他說：有認識也不想介紹給你呀！）


最白目的是，
後來他發現Mu是MBA學生，
就跟Mu要了電話。（因為他也要上MBA）
之後有事沒事就打電話來問個問題。
那天七早八早他打電話給MuMu，
我看MuMu一直面有難色的跟他說「這樣不好啦」
後來一問之下，原來他想打工，然後要借Mu的Social Insurance Card！
他是沒有過身分證喔！
身分證可以隨便給別人嗎？


然後還說他賺到的錢要先匯到Mu的帳戶，
然後再轉給他！
天呀先生，當別人都搶著幫你忙嗎？


還有上次我們都在廚房煮飯，
Mu聽到他在我們背後跟他朋友說，
「反正他們再怎麼煮也都是炒飯炒麵而已！」
厚！我氣到整個想罵髒話！誰像你天天有時間搞甚麼台式料理呀！
也不就是每個食材分開炒，我們是合起來炒而已，
有甚麼了不起的
隔天炒飯的時候（呵果然又是炒飯），
我還想騙他我在做油飯。－－－－－氣到都不淑女了啦！


最近發現他也被其他宿舍裡的人公幹，
（不是才搬進來沒幾天嗎？）
一次是因為他開別人櫃子拿別人的胡椒來用，（白目）
而且還開到一個超級大隻的摩洛哥人的櫃子。（真是白目）
聽說還在廚房爭執了一陣子。
晚上又打電話給Mu，說甚麼要問摩洛哥人住哪間，
借個胡椒也這麼機車，真想扁他甚麼的。
嗯，這傢伙也不知道有沒有160公分，怎麼這麼愛嗆。


昨天他又把廚房弄得很髒，
被告到housekeeper那裏去了。
我們也不知道應不應該要發揮同胞愛幫幫他，給他個提醒？


總之，
你不覺得有的時候這樣的人讓生活充滿顏色嗎？
（當你只是純記錄，沒甚麼被影響到的時候）
而且也可以提醒一下自己，不要變成這麼白目的人。

下學期，可以當RA了*感激涕零*！
工作工作工作，還是有錢賺最開心！


*驚！*　那。。。那個學校要申請的到才可以工作呀～唉。
