Friday... ...I went to school(DUH!!!). Saw... ...wait, who did I see? AHHH I don't remember haha. I went to class and put my bag. Talked to Zhao Wei a bit, enquiring about the Announcement Book. I was supposed to meet Serena like on Wednesday at the foyer area, but then she smsed me to say that her father was fetching her friend to school as well. So.. ..being a shy and not so talkative boy, I told her next time then we meet again haha, cause confirm I will not talk a single bit if she was with her friend hehehe. BOOO HOOO!! So didn't meet her on Friday, oh well, I still went to my 105!!! WHEEEEE!! When I walked down the staircase, I looked at 05 classroom and it was pitch dark!! LOL, they switched off the lights and closed all windows and doors. LAME!! Like as if playing "Blind mice" har? Nevertheless, I went into the classroom and everyone's eyes were like looking at me, like as if I was some intruder haha, and I think everyone said, "Yo Tommy!!" or was it just a few of them? Hmm Hmm?? Don't know la, sound like all of them cause the room was enclosed so the sound volume will be louder haha.
I went over to sit near to the back door area beside Ahmad and in front of Putra and Ignatius. They were doing their Malay homework in the dark. GEEEE, spoil eye sight man!!! SIAO!! Do in the dark. Of course not really in the dark la, cause there was a bit of sunlight but is still dark. They were using their handphone lights. I saw Ignatius's composition first word, "Orang" , it means "people" in Malay, but I played a fool and said it is "Orange" haha, cause if add an "e" behind, it really becomes "orange" ma. LOL! Vernice soon came and since Ahmad was sitting on her chair, she sat on her table. I was at first kicking her shoe, but she wasn't able to feel my kick haha cause i think I did it too lightly. Oh well.. ..I talked to them for a bit and Samantha, my sis soon came. Once again she said Hi to me, "Hello!! Hi little brother!!" Haha. I said, "Hi sister!!"...haha. (I don't remember what I talked to her about!!! AHHHHHH!!!!) Oh I remember liao, we talked about our Youth worship on yesterday's night. Yup!! She told me that she was not gonna go for the worship!! Oh well... I didn't go like 99% of the times, hehe!! Talked to her for a bit and then I needed to go to the assembly area to prepare for my pledge taking le.
I stood up from the chair.
Samantha(sis): Byebye!!
Tom: Bye!!
Sis: Wait!! Bend down a bit!!
(And she squished my head!!!) Haha. She might have ruined my hair style so I adjusted it a bit before going to the assembly area haha.
Ok went there. Charmaine Phua soon came down cause she was doing flag raising. She told me that there was a little drizzle which I didn't quite feel... oh well...since she said so, I went over to where Mr Tan was and told him there was a drizzle. HEHEHHEE, anyway even if there is no drizzle, I would get to say the pledge through the PA system and not in front of the school, hahahahaa!!!! I told Mr Tan and he soon announced that it would be through the PA system, wooohoooo!!! So good!! I went back to the assembly area and asked Qing Xi to accompany me for the PA system. We went into the general office and we were like talking and laughing in there before I said, "Bpians, please rise for the national anthem". Anyway, did the pledge and I pronounced a word wrongly again but fortunately I asked my friends, they said they did not hear any pronounciation error, Hahaha!! PHEW!!! Went back to class and I stripped!! WHEEEE!! Obviously not everything la, I stripped off my uniform and underneath is my PE attire. Went off to the indoor sports hall for PE lesson.
First game of the day is BASKETBALL!!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!! Gonna be fun! Basically, the boys divided ourselves into 4 groups. We were playing half court. 2 teams the other half and 2 teams another half. Lol. I shall talk about my team and my opponent's team only. Oh wait, at first we decided on the captains of who managed to score into the ring first. The first to score was me, then Thomas, so both of us were captains. I chose my members and Thomas chose his. My team was Zhao Wei, Marcus and me. Thomas's team was Yi Chen, Min Jian, Kester and himself. At first I was supposed to have 4 players because I selected first but then I gave the last player to Thomas. So we are 3 vs 4. Haha. Advantage or disadvantage? You'll see for yourself later!! HEHEHEE!! Since my team only has 3 players, I started the ball. And since it was the first point, my teammates were kinda dead and not hyper yet, so I played solo for the first point. The game started and I dribbled past 2-3 people... ...and scored in less than 20 sec. Opponent started to panic a bit but I scored so fast and I did it so easily. Well maybe not all of them but Thomas was...
Basketball!! Oh yea!!
So yea we played. There was one part where it was like a showdown between Yi Chen and me. Lets describe Yi Chen, he is about 180cm and his size is like 2-3 times bigger than me! 180cm!!! I am like 170cm only!! AHHHH!! Thomas threw a ball to Yi Chen for him to catch and then score(DUH!!! That is basketball, of course la!!!). However I was near Yi Chen and I jumped first to catch the ball. Yi Chen jumped about 1 sec after me and his position was in a way like bumping into me. When I caught the ball in mid air, that was when he bumped into me!! Mid air attack!! Haha. Guess what happened?? Did I manage to hold onto the ball? Did I get thrown backwards and fall? Haha cause Yi Chen is taller, bigger size wor!! The only thing is that i jumped higher than him lol. Ok the result was that we clashed in mid air. However, instead of Yi Chen managing to push me down and make me fall to the ground since he bumped into me, he fell to the ground and he slided against it. Since the ball was still in my hands, almost lose it though cause his impact was so great, I landed onto the ground safely quickly scored. WOOOOHOOOOO!!! Haha. But I was very surprised!! I thought I would be the one who fall cause I was like so skinny!! Oh well, it seemed like my body has an impact reflector or something haha. No la just kidding only.
Oh well... ...as the game was about to end, my team was leading 5-3 with one man short. WOOOO!! An acheivement!! Thomas wanted a change of players so Zhao Wei from my team swapped with Min Jian from Thomas's team. Played played played, and as soon as I scored one more ball, our PE teacher blew the whistle for us to change game to soccer.. Haha. YAYYY!!!!!! My team won 6-3...WOOOOOO!! I scored 4 balls out of 6. Zhao Wei at first was in my team, so he was winning, but then he swapped so he became from winning to losing. AWWWWW!!! Too bad Zhao Wei!!! No victory feeling haha. Min Jian however from losing became winning!! Haha. Ok, next went to play soccer. Ok not really, I didn't play much cause it was in the field. Firstly, I dislike soccer. Secondly, I do not want to get my legs and shoes dirty haha-the field was muddy and wet!! So I just stood near the goal post, not doing anything hehe. When I went to the field, saw 05 girls playing soccer too!! Vernice and Samantha shouted "Hi Tommy!!" to me. I just waved haha, a bit tired after the basketball. Played played played again, ok I didn't, so wasted time wasted time wasted time, and bell rang. Time to go for Chinese class. 05 was dismissed first from PE and Xin Tong asked me to shake her hand, so I shook her hand lor, but I also don't know for what. Sim Shuang came over and wanted to touch my face with her dirty hands!! YEEEE!!! I don't like to get dirty!!! Hahahaa...
Went over to the chin up corner to do a little bit before going back to class. My sis and Vernice saw me doing chin ups, OHHH NOOOOO!!!! Haha. They saw me do 2 only though, cause I did 6 before that but they didn't see. .. ... .. .. ... ... ... ... ... ... (fast forward... ... ...) Bell rang!! It is the end of school!!! WOOOOO!! Time to go back home!! Kester and Marcus Liau followed me back to my condo to have our lunch there, since in my condominium, there is a cafe. We were so so so hungry!!! Guess how many servings we ate? Haha the number is not big but.. ...we ate 2 servings. I ate two plates of "chicken + shao rou" rice and a drink of chin chow, Kester ate two plates of chicken rice, Marcus on the other hand ate one plate of chicken rice with a side dish of vegetables, a bowl of curry noodles and a cup of ice milo. Haha, a lot har??? Is cause we were just too hungry and were not full after the first plate so we ordered more... We are GLUTTONS!!!! WHEEEEE!!!
After which, we went to Bukit Panjang Primary School, just beside my condo and it was my primary school too!!! We went there for tuition, we tutored the primary 6 kids there every Friday. Unless the Friday is a holiday or they are having PSLE oral and such. At first, the class was like super noisy and we could not manage to get them to keep quiet and do their work quietly. I had no choice so I smsed the teacher-in-charge of the tuition programme...my message said, "The class is in total chaos. I am unable to control them". Soon, after about 5min, WAAA the teacher-in-charge, Mr Ravi who is also the DM of the primary school, came in and shouted, "WHY ARE YOU MAKING SO MUCH NOISE?? I AM HAVING A MEETING AND YOU ARE MAKING SO MUCH NOISE. WHO ARE THE ONES WHO ARE MAKING NOISE??? YOU DO NOT WANT TO STUDY, GET OUT!! TOMMY, WHO ARE THE ONES WHO ARE MAKING NOISE?? IF THEY EVER ARE MAKING NOISE AGAIN, YOU CAN SEND THEM OUT OF THE CLASS AND WRITE DOWN THOSE NAMES AND I WILL CANE THEM ON MONDAY!!! YOU GUYS WANT TO BE CANED... ...I WILL CANED YOU ON MONDAY!!!" While he was saying those words in raging anger, he was slamming the desk in front of him. AHHHH, OH MY GOOODNNESSSS!!! Mr Ravi is so fierce, befitting of what a DM should be. His voice is much much more louder than Mr Tan in BPGHS!!! I wondered whether Mr Tan was like that too when he was younger haha, maybe he couldn't shout as loud as Mr Ravi cause his age is more. Haha don't know la.
This cat looks angry to me?? Haha
Well, Mr Ravi soon left the class back to his meeting and the class was quieter than before but still not as quiet, ok ok only. I was very shocked that day too!! Because in my whole six years of primary school, I didn't hear Mr Ravi scold someone as fiercely as he did that day before. Time passed and when I was teaching someone, Le Tian called me to come over. I asked someone else to teach the girl whom I was teaching and then went over to Le Tian. At where he was, 2 persons were looking eye to eye at each other and saying some things and were about to start a fight maybe??
(The conversation goes as follows. The two students are named as A and B. Is not as detailed though.)
Tom: (facing A) What happened?
A: (talking to B with an angry face) Why you do it?
B: (talking to A) I never.
Tom: (Pulls A to face me) Tell me what happen.
A: He writes my name and scolds me on a paper and just now he showed it on the visualizer.
From here on, my tone changes into a harsher one.
Tom: (facing B) Why did you write such a thing?
B: (looking at me) I didn't he anyhow say.
Tom: Ok I don't know whether what he said is true or not, but whatever you do, think of the consequences!!
B opened his mouth, wanting to say something but I interrupted him.
Tom: Do not do such a thing again!
Tom: (facing A) And you!! Do you ever learn what is forgive and forget?? Even if he really did scold you on that paper, can't you just not fight? Even if you are angry, you can always tell a teacher about it.
A: (facing me) Easy for you to say. If is you leh? People scold you, you will not be angry meh?
Tom: I won't.
A: You talk only... ...(then he walks away)
I also walked away until I saw that B started to cry and put his head on the table. So I went back to B. Since he was crying, I could no longer use a harsh tone and changed into a gentle one... I guessed I scolded him too much.
Tom: (standing beside B) Hey, you ok?
B: (no response)
Tom: Tell me why you cry.
B: (look up) Because they say things that I didn't do.
Tom: Ok tell me truthfully... ...don't lie to me. Did you do it?
B: (pause for a while) I didn't.
Tom: Ok. But if you didn't do it, then why are you crying. If you are noy guilty of anything, why are you crying?
B started to wipe away his tears.
Tom: Even if your friends say that you do it when you didn't, it is alright, really. As long as you know that you didn't do it, then is fine. Do not put others' comments about you at heart. As long as you know that you did not do it, then is ok. So don't cry ok?
B: Ok. (Continues with his work)
Tom: Don't cry worz!
That was the end of our conversation. I couldn't really remember what I said to them but it was something similar. I scolded some others who were walking about in class too and not doing their work. It seemed like I need not raise my voice to get them to do things. They seemed to be afraid of me when it comes to me scolding. I just use a harsher tone than my usual friendly tone and just stared into their eyes haha. Ok the tuition soon ended and then all of us went our seperate ways. WOOOO!!! Back home!! And it is now Saturday!! HAHAHAHA!! LOL!!!
Kk nothing else for today le.. see ya guys!!
(one short poem to enjoy)
I Am Here, My child
I lay in bed all alone
Tears steaming down my face
I cried out His Name, Jesus, Jesus!
He came in haste
Father, hold me please
I cried
Wrap your arms around me
Be by my side
His Presence filled the room
Perfumed my bedroom air
I heard His Voice say
"I am here, My Child!"
His angles sang to me
My sorrow began to ease
In My Fathers Arms
I slept in peace
Thank you my Father for being with me at all times,
and bringing your comfort in the darkness of the night.
Thank you my Father,
because you are always there for me when I need you.
