Mid-Autumn Festival










This was a few days ago - mid-autumn festival (a.k.a moon cake festival). My supervisor suggested this event (which was required by our employers - P.R.D Nationwide). I have nothing against mid-autumn festival, i just tot no one would actually turn up for lanterns, mooncakes and fruits. So we did it anyway. It was last-minute planning. I didn't have to do much at 1st, cos i had a presentation on that day. My supervisor just bought all the stuffs that was needed for the celebration. I had a bet with him. He said that only 6 people will turn up. I said 8. It was a $5 dollar bet.

Celebration started at 930pm. It was this late because we both had badminton sessions till 9pm in uni. When it started, i took up the easiest job - peel and cut the fruits. Reason why i took it is because i didnt want to entertain them, cos on previous occassions, there was complete silence in the common room, which was really awkward. People started turning up. and surprisingly, at around 10pm, the common room was already filled with 16 people. Obviously, i won the bet but the worst part is that my supervisor didnt start all the small talk and just stood at one corner or stood outside the common room. I was inside because i was cutting the fruits at the basin which was located inside the common room. Lucky there were a few people who started some small talk to make it less awkward. Most of them came with friends, so it wasnt that bad, but there were still short moments of silence which made things really weird. I was just abit disappointed that my supervisor (when expected to take control of the situation) was away..

Anyway, Carmen (supervisor's wife) took a pic of my room, with a lantern and the moon which i thought was a well-taken picture:

Ended around 11 something.

Exams are coming soon. and im really gettin really pissy with Collins. as u can see i even dare to spell out his name, because he's a motherfucking bastard. He actually rip of the lecture notes slides from some other professors in the U.S. which explains why the lecture notes does not tally my textbook (which i actually bought and found it totally useless). He completely rip the exact same thing without even changing anything. I can't wait to do the survey evaluation for the unit that dickhead is teaching. What a bastard.. If anyone from Monash University is reading this, please do not take the unit "Brand Management" by Collins! Because you will suffer. He talks too much cock in lectures, rip off other prof's lecture slides, tutes are useless because ure just listening in to other people's presentation (which is fuckin useless, by the way). And Collins, if ure reading this, fuck you!
