My Dear New FYP Supervisor

I received a call from my department saying that our ‘new’ supervisor wanted to meet us and discuss about our progress. Sounds really encouraging after about a month floating nowhere… The meeting was set at 5pm. I arrived there at 4.45pm, hanging around at the meeting room area, try to catch something interesting on the notice board. Two of my friends have arrived, waiting for another three to come plus the supervisor. Now, my clock showed 5.05pm.

Its 5.30pm, all of us were there except the ‘new’ supervisor. We were wondering where was he, lost at the new place??? We at last left the meeting room without meeting him. My friend said “First meeting dah kantoii!” I just laughed but deep in my heart said ” Is this the first sign that tells  he won’t be a good supervisor for us??” Hemm, that was just a silly thought out from my mind.

The next day, we were informed that our supervisor was not able to make it because he was confused! What?! Confuse?? What sort of confusion? I thought that he was the one who planned the meeting, why should he be confused of something he planned?? We were astonished by the explaination given. ”It doesn’t make sense at all!”, my friend commented. “I ran all the way after my lecture just to makesure I reached there perfectly on time, and he was confused??!”, another friend screamed.

I came back home and start thinking. Maybe I should find the way to locate where is his room, or maybe his email. I’ll contact him asap to set a meeting. We really need a supervisor now no matter what before the final presentation!! Urggh!!
