that dreadful sticker.

Wednesday, August 03, 2005

My class got into trouble again.

Yesterday, at the MRL, the chinese students were supposed to go there to watch a movie. Part of 4/3 also joined us for the movie. We were watching 'The Pianist'. (Speaking of which, I have not touched my piano for 2 months.) And half way through the movie, there was an outburst by Mr. M from the MRL.

Apparently, Mr. M found a sticker on Qin Heng's back. Samuel took it off and Mr. M yelled at him for taking it off, also hitting him on the back for doing so. He later kicked up a big fuss over it.

That sticker, was rather important. It is a waranty for the NEC computer. Without it, when the computer breaks down, NEC would not fix it. We were pretty agitated and irritated at that point of time. Mr. M scolding the guys stupid and yada yada. Unecessary outbursts, shouting matches.. You can imagine it.

Mr Chow tried to appease both parties, sent all of us back to class except Qin Heng and those around him(Samuel and Jian Yong).
That afternoon, Mr Lee.W.M came in and tried to get the culprit to own up.
'If you have the BALLS to do it, have the BALLS to own up.'

This morning, Mr Lee.K.T came in and tried to get the culprit to own up again.
He said, if no one owns up, it would be treated as an offence instead of an incident.
Again, agitated people, emotionally unstable people, shouting matches, petty comments, immature comments..

Many cried, Mr Chow, even me.

I feel very very very sad for Mr Chow. He doesn't deserve this. Even though I had nothing to do with this incident, I feel very sad and apologetic for Mr Chow, I went out and told him that everytime a teacher comes into the class and scold us, reprimand us for the few mistakes that less than 10% of the class did, I feel so small. Like the other innocent parties are ALWAYS draged into the hot soup. And I felt that I have to say sorry to him, and I did. I must admit that I was too emotional over this matter.

But why?

I LOVE the class. Though sometimes, I feel anger when people do stupid things to get the rest of us into trouble, but I still love 4/1. I spent my whole secondary school life with most of you guys, if not, almost 2 years with you guys. I spent my growing years with you guys. I hold the class very dear to my heart.

It is very disappointing really. We are notorious in the staffroom/school for being troublemakers, smart alecks, irritating, rude, stubborn......... I don't want to leave the school like that.

I hope this would end quickly..
