Grandmother's wake the whole week. Gah. I am so damn effing tired, but...
I still have to go to school.
I went to school on wednesday late (purposely, not accidentally. I WAS TIRED!). But I ended up being scolded by susan lim.
SL: WHY ARE YOU LATE? FOR WHAT? WHY? DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IS IT? (actually I found her questions stupid, because she could have simply asked "why are you late?" or something instead of asking four questions which mean pretty much the same thing to a student who's come in late)
Me: Er... My grandmother passed away, so I had to go for her wake, and I came back very late last night, and I was tired, so I decided to come to school late instead of skipping entirely. *COUGHUNLIKENATALIEWHOPONSSCHOOLBECAUSEOFTESTSCOUGH*
SL: SO WHY ARE YOU HERE? (entirely redundant question, I had just explained it earlier)
Me: Um cos I thought it would be better instead of missing school entirely?
SL: WHO'S YOUR FORM TEACHER?
Me: Po- Mr Cher.
SL: JONATHAN CHER! OKAY I SHALL BE SEEING HIM SOON.
Me: Okay.
SL: HURRY AND GO FOR LESSONS! DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IS IT?
Me: Okay. -mutters "thanks", for what I don't know either-
Teachers ask redundant questions. They make students repeat what they have just said over and over again. So, teachers are redundant. They also ask many different questions which all just require one answer. From my point of view, that's stupid. I mean, they shout and they shout the same thing, and then when they get a sore throat or fall sick, they come and blame the students for causing them to shout. When hello, you don't need to repeat the same statement a hundred times. Like -
-coughCSMcough-
I still remember her lessons. (Who wouldn't?!) She'd come in and find fault with something, and then she'd give a lecture on that, and start screaming at us and picking on random people to answer her redundant questions, and if the person doesn't know how to answer for fear of making her even more angry, ka-boom:
NI MEN WEI SHEN ME ZHE YANG DE! MEI CI YI YANG DE LOR! NI KAN, YI GE XIAO SHI YI JING GUO LE! NI MEN HAI YAO WO JU XU MA DUI MA? RAN HOU NI MEN DE CE YAN NE? NI MEN YAO NA YI GE JI DAN, JIU GEI NI MEN JI DAN LA!
That was just an excerpt. She'd just keep on ranting the same thing over and over again. And then she expects us to do brilliantly.
Teachers are brilliant. Absolutely bright.
Anyway. Back to the wake. Played cards with my cousins most of the time when prayers weren't held. And the first thing an adult'd say upon seeing us playing cards -
WAH! SO YOUNG YOU ALL KNOW HOW TO GAMBLE AH! TSK...
There's actually a difference between playing cards and gambling. It's just that you don't know how to differentiate it.
