Clumsy me

By Ern Sheong | January 20, 2010

It’s the first day of my programming-free semester and it has been raining non-stop since early yesterday morning. Nonetheless, my spirits are high :)

I was wearing waterproof boots to campus today, and entered Dwinelle for my first class at 8 am. But Dwinelle floors were very slippery (everyone was walking in with wet shoes), so the clumsy me with a 6-kg backpack slipped and fell, and somehow for some reason my right hand was extended to try to cushion the fall.

About 8 years ago I fractured this right arm. So now my right arms hurts a bit, and I can’t do heavy stuff with it. Maybe the hairline fracture came back. Writing would hurt if I do not hold my pencil right, and it would take a few tries to get it right. Hopefully nothing too serious that would not heal in a few days.. Kindly pray for my arm if you can..

I guess the rigor of programming of last semester has been replaced with the rigor of reading for my Chinese History class (9 books this semester, 150 pages a week). Hopefully manageable.

A (dumb) joke:
Q: What does an engineering student do when he takes a class with a lot of reading?
A: He reads.

OK that’s really dumb. Nevertheless, I bid a good semester to all.
