Hi Ms ----. I'm -----. I think I ate something wrong so I have loose bowels from this morning. I already asked friend to buy medicine for me. Hope it can help. But I think I cannot reach today's class. Sorry for it. I will check the calendar and finish today's work through the day.

Many of the students in class today did not do their homework, so I asked them to provide me a note explaining why. M---- wrote that he did not do it because "I have a family to provide for and a wife to feed", but he had crossed out "wife" and put "dog". I asked him to give me a serious answer, and he then started to write some made-up story again. Had to correct him AGAIN. Reason ended up being that it was low on his priorities list because he felt he already knew the material well enough. Hmmm...

I'm sorry but I won't be in class today, it's for a stupid reason because I actually have no way to get to school usually my parents leave me change for the bus but they were in a rush this morning and forgot and I've been trying to look for change but I've had no luck.

And another bus pass fiasco:

I got a spare next block so if i miss todays class i will come during my spare to see what i missed
