I had a really interesting dinner last night. Previously when I recieved the letter and scanned through the invitation list, I remember myself thinking "Oh man, this is going to be one odd night! " However, as usual, things didn't turn out the way I thought it'll be.
In fact, I had quite alot of fun talking to the people from diverse backgrounds and occupations. At my table itself, there was a physics prof, a Cancer researcher, a nonagenarian, the lck coordinator, a pediatrician, a student studying English at Cambridge, a marine biology student, a math student and me! Really cool.
Hmmm found myself in some unlikely conversation topics. Like:
-How blackholes are formed (Thanks to prof E who's so friendly and amusing)
-Why violins are unforgiving instruments ( Doc P had an unusual way of analysing things)
-Wildlife species yet to be discovered in Singapore ( I've never seen a teen so passionate about such stuff!)
I guess it's nice to see people so zealous about what they do (:
Of course, we talked about everyday things like uni and family stuff. Thank goodness if not it would have been pretty unnatural!
It was nice to see prof LT again after the interview, whose first sentence to me last night was " Hi hx, so, you're coming back to serve in Singapore after you graduate right? "
How could I say no?
haha. I was cursing myself after the dinner for forgetting to take photos! so I forced my Dad to take one with me, to remember that night.
Thank you daddy for waiting so long for me, till the dinner was over! :D
