Copying is a bad habit...

Today, I had my chemistry laboratory class...
We only had lecture and exercises in calorimetry...
While answering the exercises, our professor went out of the room...
Of course, I already know what that means...
Some of my classmates are copying my answers...
It's only an exercise and since we're allowed to open our notes, I also allowed them to copy my answers...
I'm not looking down at them...
But, the problems were exactly the same as the examples given by our professor...
Same word problem except for the values, same equations to be used, same procedure...
And yet they still need to copy from their classmate...
It's either they were not paying attention to the discussion, did not understand the lecture, not interested or just TOO lazy to think...
I'm not trying to be such a goody...
It's just that there are limits to my patience...
If it's just an exercise or seat work, I let them copy my work...
However, when it comes to exams and quizzes...
I NEVER let anyone copy my answers...
I study really hard for them in order to get good results and I'm not such a nice person to share my hard work to others...

Tomorrow, my class is supposed to be from 730 am to 430 pm straight...
No breaks...
But tomorrow is only the first day and we'll only having orientation...
Actually, I'm not expecting our professors will come...
So my classmates and I decided to come to class around 9 am...
We'll be late...

Oh, I almost forgot...
Today, the usual one hour trip from school to our house took me 2 looooong hours...
It was sooo hot and I'm dripping from sweat...
The train was so packed...
I was only able to ride the train after 5 of them have already passed...
I waited for almost an hour...
My feet were hurting that I can barely walk...
My hair that was already dry was once again wet with perspiration when I got home...
I was so tired...
And this is going to be my experience every Monday and Friday...
Good luck to me...
