Survey Headache

surveys + project + university students = project headache
So guess what, yesterday during self study period, me and yijia went out to the school compound to get people to do our survey, and they were all very unwilling to do the survey. They shun us like we are the plague, and when we managed to get them, they pretend to say they are busy when they continue to stand in the exact same position. Some treat us like small kids who know nothing, and one guy claimed he does not know how to write. I am totally pissed off. Like I am a one year old kid who believes university students cannot write words. How tall is this lie?! He said he dunno how to write and read words but appears in a university studying. Moreover, Nanjing is a prestigious university!!! He expects me to believe he can study but not write words. I am NOT a one year old kid with no intellectual to speak of! Then cos he was in this group of 4 and there were 3 guys and 1 girl. Then the girl agreed to do, and so the other 2 guys agree to do. So Yijia gave the 2 guys and I gave the girl, then that guy had the cheek to look embarrassed for his horrible lie. And so he helped me do too. I realised that it is better to target those sitting down and those groups with girls in them. Cos once the girls agree to do, the guys will do. We also targeted a couple hiding from the wind behind trees. The guy looked at the girl when we asked and then she agreed and so he did it too. I am thankful to the few kind souls around, bcos most claimed to be busy and thankful for yijia's company, cos she got standard phrase to say when we wan people to do our survey. And it sounds so professional. (: Unfortunately after doing for some time, yijia felt nauseous and so we went back. And after 2 hours, we only managed to get 8 surveys done. How pathetic is that? I wonder how to even give out 50 surveys?! I think about it wan to cry already. )):
Then today, I drank pigeon soup. Seriously, I don't even know it was pigeon until yee jia said that it was pigeon, but it was too late, I drank it le. I feel a bit disgusted. ): Haiz... Don't care lar, I shall imagine it is chicken or something. Today was sooo boring. We went to visit a standard pond rocks and ponds and old architecture place. I felt like sleeping. Furthermore, bcos we go to that stupid boring place, we missed the chance to go feng huang shu cheng. I wan go. ):
Then we had to rehearse for performing on monday for some sch that we are visiting. We are joining sun dance and all for one dance to make a rojak dance.
Now, I am tyring to search for some nice movies to watch. Me and zj always rot in the room. We use com alternately, so one day I would be bored, one day she would be bored. ): I wan to do finish my surveys too! Although this seems like a daunting and impossible task.
I gtg, Bye! I shall post pics when i come back cos i no card reader. (:
