After 4 long years of being able not to worry about missing out on lecture notes, or not making sense of anybody's speech, it's with much anxiety that I approached the classroom again. Through these past years, I have been attuned to instinctively neglecting speeches that don't make sense without having second thoughts about them, and switching off on boring speakers while appearing attentive. There was a time when I actually fell asleep during a meeting while scribbling, what I later found were doodles that I cannot make any sense of... Still, it was no big deal. For, having jetted back across the globe, and 6 months later, I am still surviving fine with what I may have missed then.
Guess it's different with studying. Miss the point, and it's probably a gone-case. Also, starting to make small talks and establishing rapport with new people again is no mean feat. Haven't been that great at that to start with... *shrug*
Anyway....
Well, let's just say it is giving my stale brain a second chance to turn the fungii into better tasting mushrooms...
