Recent Happenings
Have not blog for quite some time, so really.. alot to be updated.
Firstly, shall begin with the most recent:
1st Day of Lesson after the 1st Orientation.
From now on for Monday, it is going to be the longest and most painful day of the week.. Practically all subjects own a slot on this day. Thus, we end at 5.30pm. The final period being PE. I am soo excited): Well, see point is, I don't understand why they make us end soo late when we can't even give our fullest attention to the teacher. We're kinda experiencing
Law of Diminishing Marginal Returns you know.
Where are all the Econs tchrs when the timetable is planned? Gawd..
Anyhows, some ingenious at MOE came up with this idea that we should strictly sit according to the assigned seats during lecture @ the LTs. I tell you, its crazy. Today, bags were practically flying everywhere whilst we scrambled to find our seats.
No joke being the last register: you get to sit Alone.
Reason for such arrangements? They would be able to track down your victims if you happen to be carrying a fatal bug. HA!
However, this genius obviously forget that we sit Anywhere during breaks and classes. So kinda redundant! tsk tsk. This is
Madness!
Next, feel kinda weird today too.
Actually, I was looking forward to returning back to lessons.. but.. it was a disappointment.
why? cos almost all my subject teachers have changed.
Considering the teachers I had last year, you might think that thats bad enough. Hell no. Life cannot be that bad. It have to be worser.
To sum it all up, SJ said
" we have 2 teachers who can kill by just remaining silent".Reffering to My new geog teacher who goes sooo slowly with her points, I tell you, a person like me who absolutely hate to sleep in class, actually lost comtrol! She Can soo tell stories. She'll make it big in kindergarten, bigger than High 5! Ironically, (you'll have to say this very slowly) she says:" we don't have much time to complete the syllabus.." AND she end the lecture 5 mins early! like wow.
And the other is supposedly my Econs teacher of whom I've yet to meet.
I can't help but wonder.. is MOE is currrently facing a shortage of teachers?
Math class(actually combined with A7 only), taught by Mrs Tcheau.
Now, we have to share ONE teacher with 2A1! its soo wierd. 3 class together for tutorial! The class is too big and noisy!! you can hardly hear the teacher whos half the time distracted to get the students attention. Confusion!
Even Lit lecture then at the Music room was comparatively quieter. No joke! Whats this?!
If you think thats bad enough, think again.
Even during PE we have to share Ms Lam with 2A1 yet again. Whats this? the class is so so big! considering the girls in our class (quite a sum already) and that of 2A1.. Gosh!
Looks as if 2A3 and the other Arts class is better off then us! In terms of teachers at least. Afterall, we're suppposedly doing quite well as compared to others. So to even up, we can get a lousier teacher, whilst they get the better ones, and mind you, with all the attention! Whats this? I think I entered the wrong school. Someone point me the way out! Ridiculous!!
This year's allocation of teachers, classes and timetable(basically everything) is
SCREWED!Result: I'm a Goner.
arrrggghh!!!
Better not let the JC2 s find out planned it. You never know the capability of a JC2 and you'll never want to know.
Haix.. somehow Lost.
Lousy day. Thanks to a lousy planner.
I'll mind my manners and won't start swearing.
Patience is a virtue. Grr..
Thats so much for the 1st lesson. All my teachers change except mrs k tan! thats like :'''( If they're good fine but.. this... sniff.
Mercy.
Next,
1st Orientaion:
Well its all alright, I must say btwn friends in council, this Orientation did provide the platform for closer friendships to be fostered.
We laugh, stress and well you might have guessed it gossiped together..
Its difficult to type out all that have happen. 3 Days.. but we went thru Alot.
Orientaion can be considered a success, but then again, not without screw ups here and there( of which only councillors know:)).
But all in all, Need to mentioned 2 unforgetable images, of which points we're made by Mr Tan. For starters, our school just had a New principal:
Firstly:
" Perception is reality". He said this whilst briefing the councillors. But well, you just said it wrongly. You'll have to like EMPHASISE on every word as it is of utmost importance because Mr Tan said, its what the Principal said.
Secondly: " haha.. looks as if the Tan's name is getting quite big huh.." .
Lets see the list of 'Tans', he might be reffering to.. theres some TAs including Ms Foo (now mrs tan), mr tan(himself) and of course most importantly, our new Principal. Now thats what we call
Power? HA! Mr Tan is too busy these days. The new Principal need to find his way around. He'll have to help out.
Iago says: "Men should be what they seem, Or those that be not, would they might seem none".
Man should be what they seem.
Disclaimer: "Perception might not be reality":)
Peace* out.
