"Adopt A Toilet" Program And Painting Our Class

Today everyone in school painted their classrooms. We were all unable to access the toilets because of the "Adopt A Toilet" program: classes can "adopt" a toilet and they have to paint and clean out the toilet they adopted. Don't ask me why the school initiated this program: I'm pretty much in the dark.

So, back to painting the classroom. We're to paint the doors, door frames, window frames, walls and er, ceiling. The walls were supposed to be cream, ceiling white, doors and window frames green and door frames red.

When it comes to painting, it doesn't help that the boys all wore white PE shirts: they all looked "bloody" or like clowns or Red Indians. Some of us had paper hats of different designs: boat hat, box hat, hat with two points etc. Half of us got paint all over our clothes. And hair. And skin. This guy's "awesome": green "eyeshadow" and "face paint", shirt with colourful handprints, white hair and skin that looks like there're wounds and white spots.

Before we started, we covered the tables and floor with newspapers. Even though there're newspapers everywhere, somehow the floor and tables got splattered by white and cream paint, so we had to use water and thinner to get the paint off and even then, we haven't got the classroom floor and tables paint-free.

Gyaha...
