I've woke up around 3:30 in the morning. I don't know am I just excited or it is because of the noise outside. A lot of people are shouting and horns from the taxis and other cars. What I did was, I prepared breakfast and fixed myself for school. Good thing that the house that we've got has a heater on both the bathroom and the kitchen. The weather here is about 13 degree Centigrade, not so cold but for them but for me its enough to make my body frozen. Anyway done with bathing, so get dress up, went down the stairs. I have a great morning you know why, I've drink water already, hehehe. I arrived at school at exactly 9:00 a.m. just right for my class. The whole class was there waiting for (me hehehe) not me, the professor. 

Our topic for today was about BULK CARGO AND THE ECONOMICS of BULK SHIPPING. We have discussed about the Transport System Concept and the following. The Commercial Origins of Bulk Shipping, The Bulk Trades, The Handling Characteristics and the 5 Bulk Commodity Groups and Transport System Concept itself. It was again 22 pages finished from that topic. Today's discussion focus mainly on the classes of Bulk Cargo, Liquid bulk, Dry bulk, Unit load, Wheeled Cargo and Perishable cargoes. Each classes come up with it own types and characteristics, and was discuss also. Here I've learned different kinds of ships, most especially those special built ships for special cargo. Like you can't load bulk of wheeled cargo on an Oil Tanker, because oil tanker is built for Oil Cargo. And there still a lot of things discussed on this topic which I have in my brain now, I don't just knew it but I understand it.

After class we go to a mall. It took us 20 minutes to get there, we have problems with the driver, he can't understand English. So what he did (he's smart) he stop by a man and asked him if he know how to speak English. So the man ask me what do I want to tell the driver.  Would you believe that, I just want to ask how much is the fare? And we end up laughing. I just bought some kitchenware, vegetables, fruits, plates, glasses, and other stuffs. I went back home about 7:00 p.m. already. Then, encoded this article. I'm sorry if this thing came out late, I have just formatted it. Please bare with me, here in my stay in Egypt. See you tomorrow...
