Last day of June!! Time passed so fast... Remember last week nobody came for tuition? Well this week everyone came but I was so tired I was fighting to stay awake...
During recess today, we had Ice Cream! Why? Because Sunday is Youth Day and Monday is a school holiday. Yep, one of those days that took away lesson time.
I have an issue with my class though. I'm an EXCO member that nobody listens to...
When your national anthem plays, you're expected to stand at attention. But I've got an international classmate who can't seem to understand this concept. When I asked him why he was looking left and right and scratching his head, this was the reply he gave "I'm not Singaporean, I don't need to participate" So what if youre not a Singaporean? You live here and you study here. Is it really that difficult to show that little bit of respect to the country that you have been on for the past 9 to 10 years?
Another thing, so since we had Ice Cream and not everyone came down for recess. We brought the leftovers back to class for the others. To keep the class clean, I told them to eat outside. 3 times each with increasing volume but nobody listended. What is this? Are you treating me as invisible? So I eventually gave up... And returned to my seat. I was even called a prick and the that I shouldn't be shouting because this ain't my grandpa's house.
Did I do something wrong? Was it my fault that I shouted? Is it because usually I'm too nice that they treat me this way? If they think I have no powers to give instructions, what power do they have to not listen to me?
At least there was only 2 more periods left and I headed straight to the meeting which we saw the things we have to do and got stunned... That was around 3 hours of planning and talking with the teachers.
As I got home, I was left with 30 minutes to shower and leave home for tuition. No breaks, full speed ahead. So I was so tired I was fighting to stay awake. I don't think anyone really realised, not even the teacher since I tried to be natural (I hope no one did)
Wow!.That was quite a long one with so much of my emotions... As always, it time to sleep. Good night and see you next time!
