University Fair - September 24, 2010
Today, I was going to wake up at 8:07 but I slammed my alarm clock off. When I finally woke up, it was 8:47. I had 3 minutes to get school which was literally impossible. I had to shower, brush my teeth, eat breakfast, prepare lunch, pack my backpack and bike to school. In total, it took me only 15 minutes and I arrived to school at 9:00. Pretty good I suppose. I decided to go for only 2 classes because during lunch, I would leave for university fair. Although our guidance counsellors suggested us not to go because it was for those students that were not from the GTA. However I thought to myself, if I don't go today, its gonna be definitely busy during the weekends because all the schools will be off and everyone will be rushing to university fair. However during lunch, my surname got called up for the photos for my SAC/TTC card. Me and my friend who had almost the same last name waited in a long line-up and we were able to cut the line as we got card for our photo before the rest. It saved quite a lot of time and in like 10 minutes we were done, which would have took at least 20-30 minutes. Then I was off to University Fair. I thought I had arrived when I was at the skywalk and saw tons of universities, such as University of Alberta, Manitoba, etc. but I was wrong because many of the main universities required a little more walking to arrive.
When I arrived at the Metro Convention Centre, there was a big line-up for security check which went by pretty fast. When I was inside, there was like tons of students, you can barely walk fast before you bump into the person in front of you.
As I arrived at the big room which held all 21 universities, I was awed by the amount of people. I checked Schulich York, Richard Ivey Western, Math Waterloo, Queens Commerce and that was about it. I got bored pretty fast and my shoulders hurt from walking so much. I found out that I ain't much of a walker. Other than that I was pretty bored.
The next thing I realized, if today was this busy, no doubtedly it would be even more busy on the weekends. It was good of me to skip part of my school to go!!!
