Chapter 1

First Lecture

im sorry for the long wait...but chapter 1 is finally here!!!

~~~~~

Walking hurriedly to his first lecture he didn’t notice when he had bumped into a girl and made her drop her books. Afraid that he might be late, which he despises for tardiness is one of the worst characteristics that one can have or so he believes. He rushed into the lecture hall and stumbled to find a seat and soon enough he did.

The girl that he had bumped into was now trying to pick up her books because she too did not want to be late for the first lecture. While picking up her books she secretly cursed the person who had bumped into her and ran off. Then she noticed a hand picking up one of her books. She turned to look at him and he smiled.

Leila: Thanks

Guy: No problem…are you taking first year psych?

Leila: Ya…and if I don’t get going I’ll be late…

Guy: Let me give you a hand

Leila: Thanks

Guy: My name’s Bosco, I’m also in this class…hope I’ll see you around

Leila nodded and ran off to the entrance of the lecture hall. Bosco stood up slowly and walked into the lecture hall. Unable to see the girl that he had just met he took a random seat and took out his notebook.

Professor: I’d like to welcome everyone to first year Psychology. I’m your professor for this class; my name is Bobby Au Yeung. You can call me Prof or Bobby…but never my last name. I don’t have much to say as an introduction, but I’m looking forward to many odd questions and your thoughts and opinions as the year moves on. Today, as an opening lecture, I’ll start off with something simple…dreams. I’m sure everybody here has dreamt of something, sometime in his or her life. Whether that is dreaming during your sleep or plain old day dreaming in a class. (He coughed) Ms. In the turquoise and light blue striped shirt, what’s your name?

Everyone turned around and noticed that the professor just pointed out a student who was sitting in the back of the lecture hall staring blindly at the ceiling.

The student next to her gently tapped her on the shoulder and she was brought back to this world.

Girl: What was that for?

Girl2: The professor wants to know what your name is

The girl stood up and looked down at what seemed to be a puny looking man. She straightened her back, caught his eyes and said

Girl: My name is Natalie Tong

Professor: What were you doing a moment ago?

She looked at the screen and noticed that the topic of today’s lecture was dreams.

Natalie: I was…well…I was trying to remember what I dreamt of…last night

Professor: Ah…and what did you dream of?

Natalie: Well…I dreamt of…of…

Professor: Of what Ms. Tong?

Natalie: A chocolate shoe…ya…that’s what I dreamt of last night.

The entire classroom was then emerged into little chuckles…as Leila looked closer at the girl who said that she dreamt of a chocolate shoe, she realized that that girl was her cousin. She looked back at her notebook and started to play solitaire.

Professor: Thank you Ms. Tong for sharing with us. Now class…sometime during this year we will also go over the art of lying, which Ms. Tong just tried to demonstrate and failed.

The class of about a thousand students once again let out a few chuckles.

The professor cleared his throat, which caught the attention of many of them.

Professor: I’m glad that many of you are enjoying yourself but we must get back to what we are intending to learn today. Can someone tell me why exactly do we dream?

There was a moment of complete silence where all pens were done; all fingers stopped typing as they all looked at the professor.

Professor: Don’t be shy now…alright since there are just too many volunteers (as he glanced around the lecture hall and noticed that all of his students had their heads down) how about you…in the green striped sweater, with spiky hair.

Ron looked down and noticed that the description had fit him perfectly and he raised his head.

Leila who had realized the description of the person who had bumped into her earlier turned and looked his way.

Professor: Ah yes…you…and what is your name? I like asking for names even though I’ll probably forget all of them by the end of the day.

Ron: Ron Ng

Professor: And Mr. Ng, why do you think that we dream?

Ron: We dream because it is a way for our body to release what it truly wants. It’s like what they say how if we think about something so much in the day we might dream about it at night. Or we can also say that we dream because like the song in Cinderella, ‘ a dream is a wish your heart makes.’

The professor smiled approvingly.

Professor: Thank you Mr. Ng for giving a very thorough answer to the question that I posed. If we refer to what you said as the reason why we dream of what we dream that that would mean that Ms. Tong over there had been thinking about a chocolate shoe all day long or truly wished that she could have a chocolate shoe, thus, she dreamt about it. Don’t you agree Mr. Ng?

Ron nodded as some people let out little giggles and Natalie slightly blushed being picked on for the nth time in the last 15 minutes.

Professor: My sincere apologies to Ms. Tong…I don’t mean to pick on you…maybe I should find myself another student to pick on now. (He looked around the class and noticed a girl not looking his way but rather in the direction of the student by the name of Ron Ng who just gave a splendid answer) Ah…Ms…the one staring at Mr. Ng

Leila blushed.

Professor: And now is blushing…what is your name?

No one wanted to answer that question

Professor: (he looked intently at Leila and sighed) the young lady with the short hair, and a jacket covering a t-shirt that says ‘thou shalt not touch’

The entire once again looked around and noticed her right away. Leila looked up at the professor and met his gaze.

Professor: Ah…finally…what is your name Ms?

Leila: Leila Tong

Professor: Another Tong? But then again this class has about a thousand students…so that shouldn’t be much of a surprise…

As the lecture on dreams finally took off to a more scientific and psychological road all the students typed away or wrote away. Bosco finally found out what the name of the young lady he met at the front of the lecture hall was and Leila finally found out who had bumped into her. Now she was determined to get him back.

Finally the lecture was over as tired hands and tired behinds were able to relax.

Professor: Since I won’t be seeing you for four days…I’d like each of you to write a one page report if you’d like to call it on a dream that you had and also read the first chapter in your book to prepare for next day’s lecture.
