Never assume the obvious is true – William Safire
Today, I was surprised in the class of
Communication. Why? Because the lecturer was changed. It was not Dr. Csilia,
but she was a doctoral student. Where was our real lecturer? Oh, She sit in the
front row next to other students.
This lecturer attracted us because she was a lady
wearing hijab and Pakistani as well. She had a unique pronounciacence and fast
talking. Moreover, she tried to take our attention to her explanation. She explained
those super-bored-theories with the ridiculous examples, so we were able to
understand what she said.
An assumption, it became the one of her explanation that made
me interested in. At the almost last minutes of the lecturer, suddenly she drew a
circle in the board and she said, “what is this?” while she pointed and knocked
the board. Almost all of students answered with their opinion, such as circle,
ball, donuts, and so on. This teacher was not satisfied with our answer, until
she said, “Students, I pointed and knocked this board, does it means I referred
to my graph? It is called an assumption. All of you people have different
assumption with me”. All students were quite after paying attention to her
explanation. Oh, my God, this was true!
If I reflected in the real life, there many people who
debate each other because every single head has their own assumption, opinion,
and point of view. Sometimes, I think it is very prominent to make a coffee talk
to discuss our opinion.
PS: Because I was late for 10 minutes, I missed to know her
name.
