There was the Parents' Forum today. It was just basically meet-the-parents session at polytechnic level despite that wierd fanciful name. Was damn damn damn tired today, especially with sleeping late due to some stuffs. having to wake up at about eight this morning was really like a torture. Got real irritated by my parents. They didn't know where we were supposed to go despite the programme been sent to us like a few months ago. Luckily I took a look before I slept and had a rough idea. The talk at LSCT was, I admit, a bit too lengthy and quite dry. I think my mum was like bored and pissed that she had to sit there for so long. I bet she felt cold too since she was like wearing sleeveless and LT78 was always the coldest LT among all four. The buffet lunch wasn't that bad, but it was a bit worse then the time when we had the tea party session thing. Therefore, I can conclude that the menu did NOT change. Well, maybe it did, for the worse. My dad scolded my mum there because he asked her if she wanted to go for the lab-tours and I think she said no. And so, he snapped at her saying she should go see what I learn in school. Guess I'm usd to these kind of stuff already. So we missed the lab-tours as they wanted to have lunch, but I brought them up to where the Chemistry labs were. But, they were closed, the conversation shown below followed.

DAD: "just now the chemical engineering lab had tour"
ME: "that is for CBE mah"
DAD: "which course are you in?"
ME: "MBIO"
DAD: "then will you have a chance to study the chemical engineering thing?"
ME: *kept quite*

I don't think he realise after the two hour talk that CBE and MBIO are different courses. They are too into the MOE education thing already. My dad got angry at me because I didn't help him "queue" to speak to Ms. Teh. Like he was waiting to speak to Mr. Mak and my mum was just standing around showing no concern at all, being very arrogant at all. Well, I know that she looks down on me just because I'm in polytechnic, not in some JC where she can show off to her friends a.k.a. my kindergarden classmates' mums. Hell, they are in polytechnic too and their mums were like really excited and all. All my excitement just died even before I set foot out of the house. I bet they have no idea what I'm doing now. My mum only remotely refer to my area of study as science. Yeah, I know, I'm not an all-rounder, I'm not doing Arts, but I hate writing essays. Either I was too tired or that my luck was down due to my mood or maybe even a combination of both, I fell at the stairs to SIM. My knee bleed a little and my dad got all "kan jiong". To me, it's like, you don't even know what my career prospects are and all you care is that I take care of my body so that I can look nice and all. Did I mention, Ms. Teh had to ask him what other area of concerns he had regarding me. All the other conversations I managed to hear about were of parents asking the lecturers where they kids can go to after graduation and sorts. Was too darn pissed to even do anything for the entire day. Well, maybe I should go think about how to answer my dad's question of whether I would hae the chance to take CBE one of these years, just in case any retards haven't realise that I still have NOT answer that question from earlier yet.
