Who’s Who on Campus
1. 王維倫學長, Group leader
during our 1-week orientation. Very nice person who tries to speak humourously,
but failed anyhow. According to him, since 3 months ago, he gave up sleeping to
prepare our Freshmen Camp, and since then he had lost 90% of his memory. He
sleeps averagely 1 hour per day, and due to his exteremly short memory, he
repeat things very often, such as ‘good night, sleep tight’ etc.
2. 周聰瑩教授, a PhD from God-Knows-Where, his ‘teaching slides’ are documents
typed on Microsoft Word, font size 10. There are 2 polarities in his class,
either you listen and endless question marks appear in your brain, or you don’t
listen, stare at the book and fall asleep. Beware: even though he acts like he
has short-term memory (such as forgetting how to open Office), he can remember
who was absent in his class for the whole semester.
3. 洪素貞教授, Chinese prof., very humourous and knowledgeable. She can speak
literally everything from Rome history to riding a bicycle. Her typical lesson
goes like this: she starts by teaching a few paragraphs of 史記, then she’ll start on one of her experiences where this gay couple
in school sued each other and how the other teachers who tried to cool things
down got sued as well and how finally she fell from her bicycle and broke her
ankle and how the whole Hualien community knows her accident. Rumoured never
failed anyone before, let’s hope so this year.
4. 劉齊芳教授, very young Biology Experiment prof., speaks as if everybody in the
universe offended her, and is a no-nonsense for those who broke microscope
slides and other peripherals. Her weekly homework is like a monthly project,
and she’s very scrupulous as to details. According to seniors, she’s good once
you get to know her, but i think that’ll still need a long-long time to go.
5. 黃琦, classmate who thinks he’s very good-looking and will not hesitate
to spread rumours about who’s with who etc (including seniors). Besides that
he’s a good person to mingle with and may provide good advice when it comes to
food and where to shop. Potential 2007 Freshmen Camp Organizer.
6. 廖雅慧教授, English prof., ex-headmaster’s wife. Her English is very soothing
to listen, especially after listening to those from Mass Comm practising their
scripts. A prof. who apologises because she made everybody fall asleep during
her lessons. According to seniors, she’s uncomparably generous when it comes to
giving marks, but still my classmates are very particular and they’ll ask
everything and anything she mentioned that they don’t understand. Lessons may
be quite boring at times but her articles have high literature value and thus
worth reading.
7. 智超學長, the guy who assembled and gave birth to this computer I’m
currently typing into. Very nice person at first glance, becomes animated and
childish when he sees anything related to computers (keyboards and mouses not
included). His ‘computer’ story: I got exposed to computers only when I’m in
Year 1 around March (what? And you’re already such an expert!). I was so
indulged in it I didn’t notice it was our final exams until 1 week before it.
So for that exam, my average marks was 40. You can imagine what my 義德媽媽 says after she knew my results. She called up every night to check
if I’m meddling with computers until I’m in Year 2 October.
8. 世哲學長.神, God of MED94. He was top in the
everybody-feared Analytical Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. Most memorable
quote: treat your female seniors nice, treat your male seniors nicer.
9. 葉思芳教授, class teacher. When asked if she could help me to register for a mobile phone line, her first reply was ‘i don’t have a mobile either.’ Later she added that people like them don’t use mobile phones or gadgets like that when they were in U (that was during the 50s and 60s). Aside that absurdity about mobile phones she’s a very good teacher, according to seniors, and a very good person to negotiate with.
