Witnessed tyre changing

"How many N&D female students does it take to change a flat tyre?" Well, 7 were present but 5 helped to changed a flat tyre. And, nope, I wasn't the one that helped out instead, I stood on the side to observe. Seriously, I have never, ever in my life witness someone changing a flat tyre. I mean, you see it on television but in real life, NO!

Anyway, it was quite funny when my group was walking out of the Elderly Citizens Home after our site visit and saw that another 2 of our classmates had trouble with the car. We walked closer and we noticed that Naomi's car had a flat. So, Dearne helped Naomi take out the spare tyre while my group (Lily, Danielle, Jiun, Christie and I) tried to give them a hand. As Danielle had experience with changing a car tyre, she got to work quickly with Lily assisting her. Jiun lend a helping hand by pivoting the "thingy" to lift up the car.

At the end of it all, Naomi looked like a car mechanic as she had oil and grease on her hands and abit on her face. But, I can say that yes, it took 5 N&D female students to change a car tyre and no one helped us. I seriously wonder, whether the boys (2 of them) in my class would know what to do with a flat tyre.
