Who Knew Class Could be Interesting?

I was dreading going to class today. An email from our lecturer said class would be from 10-2pm, that's four whole hours! Surely they wouldn't make us sit through a four hour lecture would they? I was also supposed to have a lecture at 9am but I didn't realise that till I was in the shower and by then it was too late!

After having lunch with my friend Angie on Tuesday for the past two weeks, I also wasn't sure if she would want to catch up for lunch again today either, and whether I could anyway because of this long lecture! I was going to text her to ask but...well she texted this morning anyway!

It turned out that our lecture was only going to be two hours, and we would be listening to an accountant specialising in pharmacies giving us tips on buying a pharmacy and how to run one, as well as someone from Pharmacy Brands (the company that owns the Amcal, Life Pharmacy and Unichem brands) telling us about how they arrange products in shops. I have to say it was really interesting! I want to own my pharmacy one day now, and maybe buy a few more when I become rich and then make heaps of money! :D hahaha yeah I wish...

Once the lecture was over by midday, we were told that Pharmacy Brands had bought pizza for us for lunch! The speaker mentioned something about pizza throughout his talk, but I thought he was just joking! It turns out he wasn't! We made our way back upstairs to one of the rooms behind the campus cafe and 50 Domino's Pizzas were delivered to us! I managed to grab a couple slices, before I saw that it was almost 1pm, the time I told Angie I'd meet up with her in the city.

I power-walked my way back to the city to meet up with Angie and we walked over to Albert Park to have lunch. We couldn't find any free benches so we just shared one with a guy. It was pretty cool, we just ate and talked for a while, before she had to go to her next class in an hour.

I had nothing better to do, so I went off to catch the bus, and caught up with my old friend Phoebe! It was her and her boyfriend's anniversary, so Happy Anniversary you too!
