In the review center I work for, we offer, aside from comprehensive review, a refresher course. The purpose of the refresher is to get the student ready right before the actual exam took place.
Two years ago, my attention was caught by a particular student who enrolled on the first day of the refresher course. Unlike her classmates who were covered with hooded jackets and thick denim pants, the girl was wearing a very short shorts and a top with spaghetti straps.
Well, I personally don’t have anything against girls who dress sexily. I would if I could :D but what bothered me was not whether she was properly dressed for an academic review or not, but whether she was cold-proof or not. Our review center happened to be located at the coldest part of the mall.
Followed by the admiring looks of her classmates, the girl sat at the front. Before I started the lecture, I looked at her and silently wished she would last the two-hour session. She didn’t. After 30 minutes, she got up and very politely bid us goodbye. When we explained that she could not retake the session, she just shrugged us off and went away. Maybe she’d rather miss the review than freeze.
Well, if I learned something from that experience, that was.. to dress warmly inside cold malls. :D
