Cornered
Today was the start of the PAE exercise to the junior colleage. As my schools prelim was so damn bloody "easy", i think i am one of the lucky few that could make it to JC.
But firstly i want to talk about my experience that day on tuesday, it was a PAE exercise so i went to school to collect my PAE stuff and went home. However things were not so simple, miss toot was there to make my sunny cheery day hell again. Miss toot wants 10 of each class of her history students to attend the school reunion. Since no one in the right mind wanted to go, it was decided by her that we should all spilt up the 400 dollar table by our class of 19. So it works out to be 25 per person although that is like 475, suppose the 75 goes to some mysterious black hole. As i was in my right frame of mind, i didnt want to give away my 25 bucks for something that is held in the soon-to-be-bombed/knocked/removed/demolished-school quadrangle. Firstly the venue issnt even worth 1 dollar, let alone 40 per person. imagine sitting on plastic grey chairs and round a makeshift table draped with dirty red linen cloth, all in the mercy of the weather and the sea-urchin like ground. And judging from what the school provided for the teacher parent meeting( in case u didnt noe it was kong guan goodies) and what they fed us once( sweet potato), you can see why i didnt want to part with the money.
However, miss toot cornered and threated not to give us back our form A(which is very imp to choose yr jc as it contains yr password) unless we paid the money. Blackmail. She said that and all the other teachers had done alot for us and now it was time to PAYBACK!!!! like some mafia. I had a hard time relating that to personal experiences, but since it was for the sake of my FORM A, i had to give the money(which was borrowed from my pals). Which i think was not right, but there she was whining and complaining and saying that she was greatly dissapointed with us for not cooperating in giving the money. Well in case you didnt noe, she still owes us a hell lot of unmarked testpapers. Unfair it seems but well, this is miss toot. And her all so cooperative sec 5's have actually paid the money it seems, well they are sec 5's, who knows where they got the money.
Anyways injustice seems to rule the world again, but its surprising that i should see it happen in school, and by a supposed to be morally upright teacher. I am just not very happy that she said that we should be obliged to pay back to them, and worse still, its decided by money. I guess money can buy you anything sometimes. I feel that if i appreciated what the teachers gave and taught me, i should to my own accord give back to the teacher in a way i see apt. Not money and blackmail. This will just carve a bad impression of miss toot on me forever like the 10 commandments carved in stone. well this experience has really taught me a lot of No-Nos.
I have alot to say about that experience but i guess i will stop, cause it just makes me tired of all this crap that people do nowadays.
Prom night is coming and i still have no idea why people are rushing to get blazers. geez , o by the way prom night does not mean promotion, though i also dunno what it stands for but its not that,maybe it is, i might be wrong. Anyways all my classmates are like asking me if i am getting any blazers for that day, man i must be either 1) too rich 2) too free 3) too dumb to get blazer just for that one night. Might as well ask me if i will wear a bowtie and hold a tray with wine. geez nowadays just because someone wears something, everyother guy will want to follow. I dont want to blow a few hundred dollars just on some night to impress, well i guess its a pride thing for some.
Graduation will be in the morning, same day as prom night. Mr black bun told us to wear formal clothes for boys and all the do's and dont's, but for girls, he just said dress like a woman and wear shoes with the strappy thing, this just shows how "deep" his vocab is. So i have to dress like a really smart ass just to walk up the creaky stage and received the cert from my principal who will act like she really knows me. Man its just sch graduation man, why all the hassle, email is available, why don't just email the freakin cert over. o wells world is changing for the better.
I hope i can get into A Jc in my choice, chao!
