7:21 pm

What is this, Rivali? Blogging twice in one day?

Stop shaking your heads, lah.

Its not my fault that I'm so free...

I actually miss studying.

No, actually I don't.

Okay, enough crap. The previous post was during the first half of school. And 2e always has recess from 1045-1130, but today, they HAD to push it forward to 1000-1045. So, Hui Ling, Hui Ting and me were in the library until 1045, then we thought we'd go down for recess, since we assumed that recess was at its normal timing.

Okay, but we thought that, since its recess, we can still stay in the library. So, we left the library at 1100, after I finished the previous post. So, as we were walking down to recess, we realised that there was nobody around. Then, the three of us met a teacher, who informs us that we were "VERY VERY late for the crime prevention and blogging talk in the Audi."
So, we ran there, to the gallery of the Auditorium. Thank God it was the audi gallery, and not the actual auditorium, cuz then people would have been, like staring at us. In the gallery, we could make our way to 2e's place in relative darkness, though we still had to face all the teachers who glared at us.

So, we got to 2e, and we saw that Mr. Seow and Mrs. Chan were sitting on the steps leading down to 2e's seats. So we were, like, blocked. Then Mrs. Chan started screaming at us and forced us to stand at the back FOR THE WHOLE SHOW.
She was like, "Stand there! Stand apart, don't stand together! How dare you be late?!!?" I mean, seriously, it was a genuine mistake. We weren't intentionally ponning, you know. Yeah, and though she told us to stand apart, we slowly sidled along, until we were within muttering distance, and it wasn't so bad.

And apparently, Seow exploded at the rest of 2e cuz they were *2* minutes late. And even though alot of the classes still hadn't entered the audi, he said that he would book then whole class. That mean Hui Ling, Hui Ting and me are in even deeper shit.. But I'm going detention anyway.. *rolls eyes and throws a dart at a dartboard with the teachers' faces*

And i was standing right behind Mr. Seow and Mrs. Chan, and their shoulders were totally touching. But Seow was sitting one step below Chan. [ <--You can infer whatever you want from that sentence... Slave.]Yeah, then at the end of the talk, Seow wanted to tell Chan something, so he went to tap her shoulder. But she stood up at THAT moment, so he ended up touching her hip. That was funnyy, cuz for a moment it seemed as if he didn't know what to do.

Police Officer: And, though the majority of you are not offenders of the law, I'm sure some of you have done some illegal things, right? I'm sure some of you smoke-
MGS: NOOOOOOO..
Police Officer: Okay, maybe in the whole school, five of you smoke?
Hui Ting: I smoke.
Rivali: Me too..smoking rocks..
[we high-five each other.]

[PS: WE DO NOT SMOKE.]

Then, he showed us some video about these teens who had been arrested, and the whole of MGS was totally laughing at this guy who had been arrested for
molesting girls' butts..

And there was another guy who had been convicted for rioting or something. His name was Chandra.

Yes, CHANDRA.

Everyone looked at me, and they were like totally laughing.

F.Y.I, sometimes, when a lesson is really boring, I pretend to be an exchange student from an Indian village. I talk in this Indian accent, and pretend to be really stupid, and I ask dumb questions. Yeah, so I tell teachers my name is "Chandramuruthy," which is "Chandrrrra furrr shorrrt."


Yep.

So, anyway, after the talk where the policeman scared the hell out of us with talks of prison, etc, the Sec 2s went to the Chapel for a talk about our subject combos.


Mrs. Corrine Sim hosted the talk, and ran through all the combos and everything, before the Sec 3 teachers came up to.. i dunno.. "promote" their subjects? They were like totally praising their respective subjects and claiming it was the most essential one..

Yeah, and EVERYBODY was talking, okay, and the seating arrangement for my row was like this.



Yeah, so people were talking and laughing, especially Cheryl, and he was like, walking around and glaring at us, and telling people to shut up, and knocking on the pews to get people to shut up, etc.

So then, Hui Ting laughs particularly loudly, then continues talking to me. Instead of telling her to keep quiet, he picks up a bible, and pokes her shoulder with it.

?????

You know, I'm not a Christian, but if I was, I would be SERIOUSLY offended. And I still think it was an appalling thing to do. Isn't the bible the word of God? How can you poke someone with it? In a Christian school on top of that? MGS being a Christian school, that was the MAIN reason that a bible was there in the first place.

On top of that, she's a female student, who is like, 20 years younger than him. Huiting laughs alot, but does that mean she doesn't have feelings? And the poke must have hurt, cuz she yelled- "OUCH!" Then she turned around to look at him, then turned back to face the front while muttering "DON'T poke me." So, I think Seow must have thought that she was muttering swear words, cuz he said in this super strict and angry voice - "Huiting! WHAT did you say??" and was totally glaring at her.


So, since Huiting is a strong person who will stand up for her rights when she is wrongly accused, she looked at him, and said in a super confident, self-assured and slightly-angry-yet-not-rude voice- "I said, DON'T poke me." Then, she looked at him until he looked away.

Not that I hate Seow or anything, even though I was super pissed off with him at that point of time, but I REALLY REALLY admire Huiting for the way she handled the situation. She didn't do anything to allow him to scold or book her, yet she drove her point home, in a calm, non-violent way, unlike Mr. Seow, the supposedly more mature one.

Huiting may occasionally crash into walls for no plausible reason, laugh at random moments, mutter nonsense at people, laugh like a hyena, think she is a fairy, etc, but violence is no way to vent out pent up feelings of frustraton and anger. And 2e loves Huiting, I bet people are like, plotting his murder right now or something.

GO HUITING!!!

So, anyway, then subject teachers came up, and started praising their subjects like hell. Btw, while the teachers were talking, Seow was pacing around the area marked as 'Seow's territory.' [refer to the map above] Yeah, so he overheard ALOT of the rubbish we were saying.

So, first was Mrs. Nat Lim with Geography. She rocked as our Geog teacher last year, you know.

Mrs. Lim: Geography is about life!
Esther: Geog is about life, History is about death.
Rivali: Mwahahaha...
Mr. Seow: [hears and starts laughing.]

Then was History, and Ms. Janet Ng came up.. People were totally mocking her. Like, cheering sarcastically and coughing loudly, and when she said something about loving history, the WHOLE sec 2. level was like- "ERR......." Haha.. but she seemed like quite a nice person.. Apparently all her classes love her.

THEN was Literature, with Gina- I mean Mrs. Thomsett. Aiyah, the whole of 2e just calls her 'Gina' now, nobody calls her Mrs. Thomsett anymore, except Zhang Hui. And Chu. So, Mrs. Thomsett was showing some slides on the computer.

Rivali: Can you imagine what would happen if suddenly a picture of her husband popped up on the computer or something?
Esther: Yeah, or she starts showing her wedding pictures.. [apparently she she still shows some of her classes her wedding pics]

A bit later...

Mrs. Thomsett: And Literature really helps me in my relationships. With my mum, my family, my friends, my husband...
Rivali: Ah, I knew we'd get to that eventually.
Esther: Like, totally..

Esther: Look! Mr. Seow's like, totally gazing dreamily at Mrs. Thomsett!
[She, Huiting and me turn to look]
Mr. Seow: [looks at us, frowns, sighs in exasperation, and returns to his seat.]

Mrs. Thomsett: And, you know, Literature helps tone the mind. You can analyse and infer! For example, when two people sit together, their shoulders touching, and they whisper into each others' ears, you can roughly tell their relationship right?

ahemahem*Mr-Seow-and-Mrs-Chan-during-the-crime-prevention-talk*coughcoughcough. [refer to the part above on Mrs. Chan punishing Huiting, Hui Ling and me during the crime prevention talk.]

Then I yelled out- "Mr. Seow and Mrs. Chan!" and a couple of other people said the same thing. And Seow was nearby, so I think he heard, which was the whole point anyway. Cheryl must have said something along those lines too. Because there was a sudden flurry of activity, and I saw Mr. Seow slapping Cheryl softly on the shoulder, and her yelling and everybody screaming.

Then, it was Biology with Mr. Jonathan Tay
First thing he said was -
"Girls, Biology is all about sex."

-___-

Oh well, that totally made everyone wake up, and we listened with great interest as he told us about how, before the invention of the microscope, people had thought that every sperm had a little face on it, and if a sperm fertilized an egg, then the baby would look like that little face.

Seriously, how stupid were people in the olden days??

Then he said- " I happen to think that I am rather good at Biology" or something along those lines.

"I happen to think that I am rather good at Biology." --- (1)
"Biology is all about sex." --- (2)

Sub (1) into (2)
"I happen to think that I am rather good at sex."

Muahahahaa.. Tsk, tsk.. Teachers these days.. *shakes head*

THEN it was Physics.. Aiyah, this was super boring lah. We were just mocking her and laughing scornfully. I didn't even know the teacher's name.

Then.. Chemistry, with Mr. David Loh. Esther, Hui Ting and me totally started laughing when he came onstage.

Esther and Me: Look! Mr. Seow is gazing wistfully at Mr. Loh! Unfortunately, he was too far away to hear.. :(

David Loh was telling us about how a wasp stung him on the thumb in class, and how, with a superb knowledge of Chemistry, he was able to pour a soft drink, which contains carbonic acid, onto the alkaline sting, to neutralize the alkaline, and produce salt and water.

Mr. Loh: And the wasp stung-stang.. er.. stung-I mean sting, on my hand was very painful and..
Esther: Oh my gosh..

Yeah, and I am SICK AND TIRED of blogging now.. haha..

Rivali


YShe laughed. And laughed. And laughed yet again.;;
