Edit: Just remembered!
*during Bio lesson, Quah needs help.*
Quah: *raises hand* Uh. Mrs Tan!
*Mrs Foo catches sight of him and stares*
*I burst into uncontrollable laughter*
I swear, Tan is seriously a terribly common surname, whoever we don't know we just call him/her Mr/Mrs Tan and we'll probably get it right. After all, we have three teachers by the name of Tan and one Tang. Tan = power! Because its range is from -infinity to infinity compared to sin and cos! HUR.
--First of all, a quote from our dear Deputy Head Prefect.
'Also, I would like to remind the school not to U-turn over
here *points somewhere* because there is a yellow box over
there *points in same direction*.'
Oh, and to Joel and Gregory, both your SS topics are Hegemony. I'm a man of my word.
And of course, our dear Pei Yi deserves a few quotes as well.
Pei Yi: Oh yah, I know a friend, his cat drop down seven floors before!
Me: Huh? Then it survived? How?
Pei Yi: No, it died.
Pei Yi: You know 不入虎穴，焉得虎子, is because all the football clubs want to get the Tiger Cub(p)!
Okay okay, enough quotes. Today was a relatively boring day, only two slightly different periods were Literature and RE. We did the dramatization thing, and trust me, some groups were HILARIOUS. Really, credit to Anderson's group for Missus Furfux and John's brother Anus.
But I feel like bitching about a certain teacher. Really. No, its not just because she unwittingly ate at least half an hour into our lunch break, nor is it because of her insisting that she did tell us we were supposed to complete something today. When people presenting last time, she interrupt to add in her own points multiple times, I already got a bad impression. Then today Madam Tan (MH) did mention to the class that she intended to use our classroom for the lunchbreak so that she could finish her RE on time. Then,
*Madam Tan enters from back door*
Teacher: Oh hi Mrs Tan! *to us* Okay everyone stop for a while, I think Mrs Tan has an announcement to make!
Madam Tan: No lah no, I just need to use the classroom for RE-
Teacher: ..Oh sit down and watch lah! *beckons for her to sit down and for the groups to continue*
So Mrs Tan was like, stoning in the seat typing Math sums incessantly on her laptop as she waited for an opportunity to use the class. Like, seriously. Ugh. So evil! Can argue that Teacher never hear lah, but really, why else would Mrs Tan pop her head into the class half an hour into a 45-minute lunch break. Perhaps she could have the courtesy to ask? Hmm, just felt like bitching.
Then there was Guitar Practice. I swear, I was considering not turning up at all, and perhaps that would've been better. Not Jiheng's fault that he kept repeating what he wanted to say, waiting for them to quieten down to no avail, and being rather bothersome himself by making us play the same small section over and over again, but seriously. People at the back chattering. Altos mindlessly clanking. Diao Zheng strumming on his bleeding irritating guitar. And conductor cannot shout but trying to, no one listen, keep talking. Its like if someone kept making noise in the same room, and you're bearing with it but its really not easy. So for the first time in years, I raised my voice.
This is not a good day.
