My Workshop EXP
I missed one enrichment workshop due to an unexpected short-term memory loss. The day before. I read my schedule and knew there was a workshop, but I forgot to bring my planner with me to school. I only remembered the room number. Sadly not the floor number. I searched 3 floors, 8,9, and 10.
It was amazing because after the 10th floor I gave up. I tried to message people for the floor number, but they were all at the workshop already, so I could not find anyone. What caused me to give up searching is the weird situations I got myself into. I accidentally went into a room about online dating and opened a door when a class was going on. It was really embarrassing.
The next class, I asked my friend what floor the workshop was on. He said it was on the 7th floor. I was shocked, and felt extreme stupid. The suddenly memory from what I wrote on my planner finally comes back. I have to go to he next workshop or I risk fail the class. This time I wrote down the room AND the floor number on my hand. This trick always work. I even made it there early.
The second enrichment workshop I went to was really informative. I learned about how hurtful racist jokes can be. There was also words I did not know was harmful. The word “fag” was very offensive to someone gay. I had no idea. After this workshop, I learn to watch my language. I also learn the word “ouch”! In reality, I have never ever used this word once. I have heard it on T.V. somewhere but I never used the actual word. I would say “ow” instead of “ouch” when I get hurt. It essentially mean the same but it is faster to say.
