I am a flower quickly fading,Here today and gone tomorrow.
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord you catch me when I'm falling.
You told me who I am,I am yours.School has reopened!
& nobody seems excited about it.
(not even the teachers!)
This year's june holidays seemed so short.
Somehow, as I become older, my time flies even faster.
Like whoa, in a blink of an eye, my holidays are over. (literally)
Someone once told me, "Time flies when you're happy."
& my experiences have told me that that's quite true.
It seems all too fast.
It's like, I haven't done anything much in the holidays.
But I am happy, because God is with me. (:
So, the first day of school in term3.
Hmm, so-so, kind of boring.
Nice to see everyone again, but not nice to see the effect of H1N1.
Not the physical effect after being infected with the virus,
but the mental & psychological effect.
The discipline teachers were so concerned about the whole thing,
(a little over-concern, though?)
but everyone else seemed so nonchalent & just couldn't care less.
There was this H1N1 briefing that strucked me.
I mean, what is with the "cute" cartoon characters on the 'brochures'?
Does the government think that it really appeals to us?
We're in the secondary, for goodness' sakes.
It would be logical for the primary, but us? Come on.
& what is with the ppt slides and everything -
they're totally making it into a lesson.
Think about it, how many students were actually listening
& memorizing the things to do during this pandemic?
Sheeeeeeeeesh.
Anyways.
The teachers did not stop or give us a first week of 'adapting',
but just bombarded us with lessons.
whoa.
And soon enough, I experienced the ...
laziness & mundane & boring lessons being taught today.
I'm sorry to say that I slept during Math & Physics lessons,
but that's just typical. (:
Nonetheless, it's still fun studying with my classmates,
who never fail to 'liven' things up. :D
Mr James Lee also came in to our class doing SS's free period today.
(Pretty random, I thought.)
He shared about his JC life & a bit on career guidance.
I must say that I really liked listening to him talk.
He's just hilarious.
& I think that his lessons must be pretty entertaining too.
Sidetrack:
Some very shameless promotion here.
I'm gonna do the "Speak Good English" thing with Germin next tuesday.
Support us. :X
Oops, let's continue.
Oh ya, there's this very not-so-good arrangement for recess.
We have our own table as a class,
we have to sit as a class,
we have to eat as a class,
we have to have recess as a class.
Why, it's a deja vu of Sec3 Camp!
It's kind of ohkay, I think,
but really, do you teachers think this would stop the virus from spreading?
I mean, come on, we still hang out with people from other classes after school.
We still have to come in contact with people when buying food.
See what I mean?
Anyway, this idea is actually a pupil suggestion -
to make sure students return their utensils.
Like any other idea, there are pros and cons.
GET ON WITH IT, PEOPLE. -.-
(& with "IT", I simply meant sitting together. The boys have no H1N1 okay. -_-
Whatever happened to class spirit.)
Another change.
Assembly's in classrooms, yay.
(No yay for register & relief duty prefects,
because they have to climb the stairs. lots of times.)
by the way,
HAPPYBIRTHDAY JOY. - 28O694Labels: i am a flower quickly fading; here today and gone tomorrow.
