So from last Saturday till Wednesday we found ourself back in school again for the Malaysian Choral Eisteddfod. And with the venue being a school, there's times when we just think back to how our schooltimes were - no car, no air conditioning, no work...
So anyways there was 5 days of being out and about in school from 8.30am till 10.30pm, and with the lack of enough rest and sleep (yes well we do sleep late but normally we're plenty much at rest during those times) we're pretty much tired out. Hot weather meant we were sweating on and off but since we were pretty much prepared to be sweating, we didn't fuss too much about it. Different story if we were just out of the shower and dressed in work togs.
The good thing about all that sun and sweating? We probably only went to the loo like, three times tops a day. And contrasting skin tone.
More good things? School canteen food is cheaper than eating at the workplace. We can budget RM3 per meal instead of the usual RM10 per meal, although for most others after 3 days eating the same fare for lunch and dinner. Still, the food is fair (tho' some say oily) altho' admittedly we didn't eat there all the time whatwith running about one place or another.
Still...don't think that a good tan and cheap food will make up for hot weather and sweaty clothes. We'll keep the air-conditioned office, thankyouverymuch.
