(and he pointed at me for an answer)
Me: Erm...erm.....spa...spa...SPArtans!!!! The SPArtans invented Spa!

We were asked to do a SWOT analysis on a particular organization. If you don't know, SWOT analysis refers to Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Threat. We were given a piece of paper to jot down our answer.
I was especially tired and uninterested that day.
My answers:
Strength: Very Strong
Weak: Quite weak
Opportunity: Got chance
Threat: A bit threatening

After so many years I am still that same bag of nonsense. I always thought I am already a changed man. Apparently not.
I am a doctor
One fine day while in my office working(I work in a private school), this student from China suddenly came in and said she was sick.
This conversation is all in Chinese.
She: Doctor, I am not feeling well.
Me: I am not a doctor.
She: Then where is the doctor? I am really not feeling well and need to see one.
Me: There is no doctor here.
She: How come hospital got no doctor?
Me: This is not a hospital. This is a school.
She: But how come outside the signboard says that this place is a hospital?
Me: Which sign? There is definitely no sign that suggests that this place is a hospital.
She: Come, I show you.
With that, I followed her out of my office to the sign which she was referring to. There was indeed a sign.
The sign reads:
SCHOOL D' HOSPITALITY
It was from that day onwards I understood why the China students in my school always seem to be so polite upon seeing me. They must have thought that I am a doctor who practises in this school.
Maybe I should put another notice round the school informing them that SCHOOL D' HOSPITALITY is NOT equal to HOSPITAL OF THE SCHOOL.
