Bored in the Library

Things which I observed at the library today.

1) Highly irritating person sharing a table

This guy was seated across me at the same table. Think he's going through some chapters about quantitative methods (statistics) to prepare for his CFA exam. Well, the workbook says CFA. Apparently he wasn't making much progress. Time to time, you hear him muttering expletives. For example, there was one which i hear quite clearly. "What a f**king boring piece of s**t." Hmm.. Think that, i can tolerate. What i couldn't stand was his random bouts of humming and his audible demonstration of frustration from his pen and book-flipping.. Now those were really disturbing. I switched table when i got the chance to.

2) Easily irritated old man

Think this old man was bored at the library. He seemed rather easily disturbed by all the little noises around the library, including the ones made by my ex-neighbour. What was troubling was that he never failed to stare around. And because I sat in front of him, he would stare at me. At least that was what I notice whenever I looked up. Ok, at least he could be friendly. He gestured for me to join him at his table (I wondered why), to which I smiled and declined.

3) SMS

Over half of the sms I received today start with "Haha".

4) "So cute"

Wonder why girls are more inclined to say things like "this is so cute". My friend remarked that twice within an hour, one on her bookmark and another on a baby. Can't recall a guy who said that.

Argh.. 7 more days to exams.. Back to mugging..
