i probably should be studying now but i'm too lazy. and my books are so far away..... (in short, i'm lazy)
but anyways. this friday, everyone is going to stand in the middle of the road under the scorching sun while blabbering the pledge incoherently. this 'magical' and 'once in a lifetime experience' of saying the pledge in the middle of the road probably only lasts like, what, less than 5 minutes. yet we have to report to school
3 hours in advance. i think the school is embarrassed of how weird the situation would be if one or two people fainted of heat stroke during the 'magical' moment. so they figured
"why not let the whole upper primary and all of the secondary sections stand for three hours before the spectacular grand event? then they'd get all jelly-legged and they'll all faint together! looks nicer that way! then we can say we made them fall down on purpose. definitely better than one or two people fainting at a time."
seriously. WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO JUST STANDING THERE LIKE BOZOS FOR THREE HOURS. i repeat. THREE HOURS (the power of repetitions!).
we should all bring those little collapsible doremon fans and wear bright yellow duck hats on our heads and sing "kumbaya my lord" AND force the elder folk of the school to join us in our little merry making. and because they seem so miffed about our lack of human decency (not kowtowing whenever the elder folk walk past) we'll hang our heads as if we're mourning. in return they'd have to greet us back. how? they'd have to do a whole 90 degree bend. for all those years in primary school we stupidly went to bow whenever they walked by.
only to be COMPLETELY IGNORED.
chem chem go away come again some other day.
