A pretty eventful day.

... No, not because today is Valentine's Day.

Whoa, 1 and a half week without a post. Achk. I have a long post, about last week, right now, in my drafts, which I'm too lazy to write. So, today was a pretty up(Sorta) and down day.

Oh, and the number 14, which is inauspiscious for us Chinese, might be the reason why for today. :P

English
Went to SAS at 10 a.m today, for our first English society meet. Ironically, only 10 out of around 70(According to the teacher) registered members turned up. There were a few more who came for the society, but got lost and couldn't find where were we as we were in a kinda hidden class. Our proper meeting place was locked with no keys. Nice.

So, we picked the four main comitee members today, despite the low number of those who attended the meet. Guess who got the president spot out of three others by a 5-3-3-3 votes win? Sheesh, I'm gonna get you guys, someday(:P). Her Man was selected as the vice-president, our ex-prefect of SSP is secretary and Ducky as treasurer(Again). The funny thing was, all four of us are ex-SSPians.

So, as the president, I had to stand at the front, chalk in hand, and note what was important on the blackboard and do some suggestions/talk. We had our activities planned, the list below;

1. Singing/Music listening(We are asked to bring CDs and lyrics. Strangely, our teacher allowed us to bring songs with vulgar content, saying that we can then discuss about it and state the message being sent by the singer. :P)
2. Round-robin writing.(Suggested by me. A lil' activity where we take turns to complete some essay.)
3. Word games.(Scrabble, crossword, etc.)
4. Essay/Story writing.
5. Drama plays.
6. Choral speaking
   

7 and 8: I forgot, please don't kill me!

We discussed on some of the other society matters, like fees and time. After a few jokes, we managed to have everything solved and ready for the next meet... Which is like, in the next 3-4 weeks because of exam and the Chinese New Year holidays. The meet ended an hour earlier than expected, at 11 a.m.

Threatened? I think so.
Well, I had to stay back after the English society meet, along with some other friends. Had a somewhat early lunch, consisting of a bowl of mee-hoon soup, two curry paus, chrysanthemum tea and a packet of orange soft-drink(People ask why I'm thin).

So, after eating(11.50 a.m, I think), Roshan and I decided to start our prefect duties early. We donned our ties, pinned our prefect tags, and started walking around. We saw three afternoon session students(Three idiots who break the school rules, to be precise.) coming into the school with KFC take-aways, but without their school bags. Obviously, they had left the school compund, which was forbidden once you have arrived at the school. The teachers had been ranting about this the day before, saying that if an accident happens, the school is always the one taking responsibility. Therefore, we had no choice but to take down their names.

They didn't know that we had their names written, as they were at a distance. But strangely, they later confronted us, viciously. It seems they know that we had their names written(No idea how they found out, I suspect Mel Yee, another prefect who passed by me and Roshan when taking down their names for telling them.). To further prove that, Mel Yee was with them, standing at the back like an idiot. It also seems that one of them idiots had brought their form 5 brother along.

*Sigh* Yes? What is it? The brother asked if either it was I or Roshan who wrote his brother's name. Roshan didn't say anything, therefore, being a retard like usual, I said that it was me. He stared at me for awhile, then opened his mouth. "0Mg!!!!1111 u s|-|uld \/\/r+e hi5 n4m3 m0r3 often!!!111" and he gave me a pat in the back.

Oook...

Then he started saying that they were ordered to buy food for them by a form 5 "taiko(Literally, big brother, but it is mostly used for big boss)" or something like that, I wasn't really paying much attention. Well, Roshan finally did something, saying why we had to write their names. Alright, after both of us and him "conversing" peacefully for a few minutes, he finally reached an agreement after he gave up trying to scare us with this "taiko". He agreed what we did was right, and gave me a pat on the back again, saying "Wah, form 1 prefect better than form 5 prefect! Good!"

Then, he left. This agreement seems to anger two of the idiots. They gave us threats in Chinese, which was funny, because I only know abit of Mandarin and Cantonese while Roshan know none. Then Mel Yee, came to us and say that their "taiko" is very dangerous and should be feared. Haha. Seriously, he's a friggin' prefect. How can he tell us to be afraid of the very group that we, the prefects are supposed to be against?

Roshan was kinda paranoid, I don't know why. He later came and find to tell me that their "taiko" might be real. Seriously, I doubt he even exists. Especially when the idiot's brother was telling us about him. He was smiling all the while, as if he was telling a joke. Sheesh. Anyway, at the end of school, Roshan looked for me again, and asked me to tell the discipline teacher about the threat with him. Well, I guess that is the best thing to do now, anyway. So, we did. Unfortunately, we got this reply, "73|| m3 2m0rr0w..."

Ah well, at least we tried. :P

Valentines
Ok, the girls seem to take notice of this event more than us guys. Starting from when I came to school for English society, until the time I left school. The girls were either jumping around, hugging each other wishing "HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!" or chattering about their availability around us guys. Riiighht...

Today is also the birthday of two of my friends. I enjoy having friends with birthdays falling on this peculiar day. It's fun wishing them "Happy birthday+ Valentine's day! Now, do you want a partner as a birthday present?!" and watching their faces especially Thayaalan. :P

Happy buuuurthday Thayaalan and Al-Azim. :)

Oh, and thanks for the happy Valentine's day wishes from my close friends, showing me that Valentine's day isn't stereotypically just for lovers. Happy Valentine's days to you all, too.

And before I forget... Erm... Thanks for the "Happy Singles Awareness Day" wishes. I guess.

Racist Science.
Ever heard of Ketuanan Melayu? Well, our Malay Science teacher has hinted that she is a racist today.

Well, today, we did the pendulum swing experiment today, where we calculate the time taken for the pendulum to make 10 complete swings. The day before, she handed us some "expensive green paper" with worksheets printed on it. Seriously, the only expensive green paper I know of are dollar bills and the one made out of elephant dung. She said that it was so expensive, we must not ruin the paper with correction tape and erasings. The worksheet that was printed on the paper was, well, a direct copy of the same exercise we have in our Science Practical workbook. Boy, talking about inconveniences.

She told us to do our experiments, and record our results. Now, this is where I get pissed off. She didn't say where, making us record it in our "expensive green papers." At the end of the lesson, she said in a very, very nagging tone, that she wants us to record our results in our SP workbook. This part also pisses me off. She then states no one is to record it in the paper, except for the two groups which she had "checked" to make sure that their findings are 100% similar to hers. Wow, now you tell us, and, 100% similar to her results? What. The. Hell.

Now, the two groups which she had "checked" with hinted to us that she MIGHT be racist. Ok, let me give a rough layout of the groups in the Science lab. 1rst on the left is an all Malay group, beside them is my group, multi-racial. Behind us is an all Indian group, on their left is a multi-racial group, and the two groups behind us are all Malays. Occasionally, she gave us some naggings, like "j00 /\/\u57 |37 73|-| p3|\|du|uM 4t 30 d3gr33s!!!111" or "j00 4r3 d0i|\|g i7 wr0|\|g!!111" without actually telling us how to do that or what is wrong. The worst part is when she kept on excessively nagging that our results will be wrong if we did it the wrong way from the next table, without even telling us what is wrong. She spent half of the 1 hour Science lesson on the group beside us, watching them do their experiment and helping them. Ok, next, it should be our turn to be checked and helped, right? Wrong. She straight away went to one of the two Malay groups at the back, and spent the next half an hour there.

Sheesh, one of the worst teachers ever.
