The exams are coming and we are all stressed... Sigh.
I don't even have time to update nowadays... What a time.
I am just glad that one thing is off my mind now - 2.4km running.
We had our test last week, Friday, and I passed! Yay, I don't give a damn about the grade, obviously I couldn't get a good one. I think I got a D though. Like my name.
PE will be a great lesson from now on, after all, I like Mr Chan's lessons. He's as great as Mr Lim, my D&T teacher.
We had CE test on Monday, which was a disaster, after all, I didn't even bother to study or even read through. I passed, luckily, with 68 if I'm not wrong. Lots of people failed in my class though. Funny. It has questions which are common sense, despite some questions that I'm positive that the teacher didn't teach us. Damn her, oh well. At least I
passed.
Our mid-year examinations are coming soon, in fact, it's tomorrow! We will be having English Paper 1 and Literature... Damn Lee Fong King. He was absent today! And he always favour Nicole, and ignores us. The people which need him more than Nicole do, since she's already so good in her studies, and the best in Literature. He should really explain to us, and tell us why we are wrong. Why do you think my class behaves so bad? It's all because of his attitude in class. Last year, when we first had Literature, the class was quite well-behaved, by our standards. However, as we go on, we became "
bad" as we know he's only interested in Nicole. Even I, who was extremely enthu in the first place, began sleeping in his class or doing my own homework. all because of him, my grades are already suffering. I know I shouldn't so teacher-dependant, but this is a matter of whether he had fulfilled his duty.
If he treated us fairly, paid us the same amount of attention as he did to Nicole, we would have better grades, instead failing and failing to live up the teachers' expectations.And that brings me to another topic - Expectations.
Should we be living up to the teachers' expectations of being the best class?No, I don't think so. What's the point anyway? The teachers are always comparing us with 2007's 2i1, so what? We are two very DIFFERENT classes, with different personalities and characters, mindset and all. We can't be an exact replica of last year's 2i1 right? Yes, I agree that we may not be the best behaved class, or we are being consistent in our work, but if we can produce the results, all should be ok. I don't see any good coming out of it, comparing classes. It only makes the insulted class hate the other classes more, and what we are emphasizing here is harmony, is that right? I just wish the teachers will just wake up. I know we can be ridiculous sometimes, but comparing really breaks our confidence. Why are we behaving badly? It's all because we want attention. We do not want to be overshadowed by other classes, so we rebel. And that made us notorious. Seriously, I don't know what people are thinking nowadays. If every class is the same, wouldn't that be boring?
I just want to be happy.
Anyway, had a BAD fall on yesterday. Since we finished our running, Mr Chan took the first half of the boys for the 5 items test, while the rest was free time. Hence, I went to play Captain's Ball with the rest of the class, except some people. I was in ShuHang's team, and soon more and more boys came joining us after their test. I was a little tired so I went to switch with Kenny for the Captain's role. I was ok till there was this one ball which came flying together with many people running after it. I tried to catch it and the next thing I know I was kneeling on the floor, my knees and hands hurting. I quickly rubbed them and resume play, only to find my knees bleeding badly after a while. I ignored the pain till the game was over... Didn't want to let the guys down by stopping halfway... I was a little morbid though, after seeing the blood. It kinda fascinated me, but Eleanor told me to go and wash the wounds... So, Angie and her accompanied me upstairs, while I insisted on going back to class first in case there is a teacher there, since Ms Junaidah was absent, and left my clothes there. I guess the others were disgusted by the amount of blood I was losing. Not much to me, though.
Washed the wounds, it only hurt a little. I feel a little happy though, I don't know why. Perhaps it was those endorphins. Haha. When I walked past 2i3, I saw Mr Chan. He disappeared after he took the boys for the 5 items test. Sigh. Anyway, he then took me down to the sick bay, accompanied by Aijing, and applied some medicine for me, and then he bandaged them. It hurt while I was walking, and it proved to be a hindrance to my travelling around... Oh well. I do feel cool having these injuries. Haha. I was a little overwhelmed by the concerns shown by my friends, and the some people of the class. Thanks guys!
Sigh, since there are examinations tomorrow, I shall stop here for now... You know, my poor knees still hurt. Boohoo.
*Just took a test, it's interesting. (Well, to me, at the very least.)
