Stuff Of A Week Jumbled In 1 Post

So, the second week of January's gone. Miss "Kuk Fa" is as successful as a geek at a rock concert. All she does is recite things straight off the textbook without explaining exactly why do we do it the A way and not the B way, which explains why we typically have like half a period left to do our homework after she's done explaining. It's a wonder how I managed to understand geometry. Algebra's an entirely different story. And Mr Momo is having... not much luck trying to stuff S.I units into our brains. He's blaming this on the fact that the school decided to have us learn Physics in form 2 instead of form 1 like the seniors. And since there's no need to change seats every week, I can finally for once leave those monstrously thick books in school.

Then there's the student IDs for the freshmen. Okay, the badges back then were just iron-ons, but starting from 2008, the badges are all stitched right onto your uniform (I "like" the idea of having to go back to school in the holidays just to get your uniform), with your student ID number stitched right above it. And they change the colour of the ID numbers every year. Those enrolled in 2008 have theirs in red, 2009 blue and this year's... a pain to the eyes: orange and yellow. Come on. Orange AND Yellow on a blue pinafore/white shirt?

As for clubs/societies, the handicrafts society is a ladies' world compared to IND club: it's the opposite of it, with only 3 boys. That's more pathetic than the number of girls in IND. IND was mainly boring anyway. Thanks to H1N1, no field trip. Boo.

Saturday was "fun", if you call doing Chinese calligraphy AND standing for 3x40 minutes for the "Kai Xue Dian Li" fun. The form 6 seniors have no need to leave their building and turn around in ridiculous fashion unlike us. All they did was stand outside of their classrooms. No fair. Ah well, at least I got a nice view of the 24 season drums' performance and didn't get showered in confetti.

Everything went as "smoothly" as the school wanted until Chieri fainted. And if you're guessing Chieri's Japanese, you guessed correctly... by 50%. Let's say that the seniors in charge of emergency rescue weren't too pleased about being yelled to "roll here" by Sheng Yang. And they had to use the acid bright orange stretchers. All the freshmen got badges. Woo. Last year I got a notebook with a weird looking drawing of a boy and girl holding hands during the ceremony. I never used it because the creepiness got to me.

Sports day and physical examintions and musicals and monthly tests at the end of the month... this is going to be one heck of a year... I did survive last year so I'm probably going to survive this year as well. Subjects I'm most likely going to fail include algebra, art and P.E. Well, let's hope.
