Bearing the consequences?
School today was literally bad for me. The similar old problem befell on me hours ago and it led me to a truancy offense. It wasn't really a serious offense. Shirley and I skipped Chinese lessons. It was a hour lesson and our class were in the school's computer lab. And determining that we wouldn't be caught by the teacher, we went into an extend of skipping Chinese lesson. We thought of hiding somewhere behind the classroom door, and we hid there. But as we were anxiously isolating at the dark corner, Changyou saw us. *Laughs* But it didn't really affect us as we presumed that he will never complain to our Chinese teacher, so we remained the same. After our class's chairman locked the classroom door, we were delighted and jumped with joys. Not long after we settled at a corner in the classroom, we started doing some reading and highlighting the interesting vocabulary used in the story. To my astonishment, Darwin and Joel came back to our class and opened the door. They told us that someone had informed our chinese teacher about us and we were ordered to go back to the computer lab immediately. Shirley and I doubted of the consequences if we really turned up at the computer lab. When Darwin and Joel were strolling a few meters away from us, Shirley and I escaped and ran into the girls' toilet. Yes we got to escape but they saw us escaping eventually. We settled down at the staircase near to the Science Lab. And we had a cool conversation there, I summarized and deliberated some English verbs to Shirley and I also explained them to her and meditated to her on English. While they were having Mother Tongue lessons, we were meditating on English and we seemed to be really picking on Mother Tongue language. I'm here to clarify that we weren't picking on anythings. Will I ever hate Chinese? Absolutely no. I will never ever let my ancestors, grandparents & family down. Language is rather important in terms of both English and Mother Tongue. The problem was, going to the computer lab was plainly boring and a wastage of time. We prefer referring to the Chinese textbook itself and practice for our coming preliminary oral examinations than looking into the web-cam and take a video of ourselves. In conclusion, we were far over-dreaded to go for Chinese lessons. After Chinese lessons was Maths, as we walked back to the class and we were being teased by the whole class. They were just teasing us and scaring us. Nevertheless our Chinese teacher came to our class and pointed at us. We were told to stay back after school and copy the whole lot of two chapters from our Chinese textbook. We were also given 2 demerit points. The wise people bears the consequences willingly. Dared to risk, dared to face. It was also really shocking when no teacher scolded us :P Our classmate were really creating such nuisances as they plainly wanted to make us panicked. And that's called unmatured... Knowing that, we didn't even believe in what they were crapping about, lols. Shirley and I were so called 'lucky'. It was English lesson then, our english teacher= our form teacher. Our names were mentioned in the class diary... just only when the school bell rang, we were dismissed... Then my form teacher signed the class diary and she saw our names stated with negative comments in the diary as she shouted at us and told us to stay back. We were prepared to get a traumatizing experience from her. =.='' Moreover, she didn't use a bad tone when she was talking to us. She didn't even reprimanded us. However, she had a nice chat with us. And told us why we shouldn't skip classes. She also urged us not to do it next time and also wanted us to guarantee her that we will not do it again. Instead, I was quite affected by her words. What she said were really true. Maybe teachers shouldn't scold students like us next time but to explain in a well-mannered way? And this really touches my heart. Sensing that our form teacher really care for us, but there are still people taking her for granted :( Yeah! Alright we stayed back eventually after school to clear our debts. We lunched at the Mama's shop and bought lots of tidbits- to cheer ourselves up! Then we headed back to school and started with our work. We only finished at 4.30p.m plus. We bore the consequences today. And we didn't run away. Therefore our debts are officially cleared! Yes, I promised my form teacher not to skip for any classes anymore and I will not upset her again :D The book 'chicken soup' really motivated me... credits to the inspired authors! Something flashed into my mind. "Being the salt & light for my school and setting a good example for my friends and juniors." But I can never succeed in being the salt & light for my school and whatsoever. |
