Salam,
Every student has definitely a feeling when he or she has free time at class, meaning no lecturer and it’s free to do anything. That is what I am having now. Well, what are the things you do the most when your waited lecturer finally cannot come to the class? He or she might have sickness or have other things to do outside. This kind of thing pretty much happens at some universities in this nation. Due to the sense of toleration here is high, so the absence of teacher or lecture seems to be a blessing for most students. But for some, this is not really pleasing. I am one one them :)
Go back to the first question, what do you probably? Here are some choices that I have on my mind:
1. Browsing. Yes this is best if you have a laptop with you and it is connected to the free wi-fi internet in your room. Browsing means a lot ; facebooking, twitting, or just searching for valuable information.
2. Going home. This can be done if you do not have more class ahead. Hm… for me the is the last choice since I’d better do others instead of going home right away.
3. Reading. Books are likely the best for you to read, nonetheless other medias such as magazine, newspaper or website are also recommended.
4. Blogging. I make a difference between browsing and blogging. Blogging can be done offline by utilizing some freeware. I am fond of using Windows Life Writer to blog, though finally I need an internet connection to publish my writing. What I am doing now is blogging to fill the spare time because the lecturer of mine is unable to get in to the class. May my lecture is just be fine and may her business is eased by Allah.
Brothers and sisters, you might have other things to do to fill the spare time in class, please write that down. Thanks
