Of Itchy, Scratchy and Teachers

Alright just got back home. All stinky and sweaty, but heck the bathrooms are occupied, so I will blog a bit while waiting for my turn. (See we actually have turns in my house. All that is lacking is a ticketing system, and hey presto, we have what you call as modern day red tapes/banking system.)

Anyway, today was our Teacher's Day celebration. nothing much to blog about seeing how every year, it's the same process. The assembly, the speech, the games, the performances, the speech, the singing and the speech. See how everything ends up like a vicious cycle? Never ending they say.

But this year, the school admin are actually smart seeing how they manage to make (al)most all students and teachers alike to attend today's all jolly celebration by holding an exam. (For us fifth former, it's our English Paper 1).

Well, the timing thing was a total flop. Instead of ending at 1, we end up leaving at 1 something (close to 2). But heck, aren't PMT +2 for occasion such as this? (Predetermined Meeting Time which is 1 or 2 hours later than PMT)

With that in mind together with the fun of watching the teachers doing their stuff on the field (after all, it's indeed rare to see the teachers all fired up and dress for the occasion for some fun and games under the sun but not unheard of) it's kinda funny. Not the funny kinda of HAHA, but more like a L.O.L sort of laugh going on.

And unexpectedly the cards we made for the teachers were strangely more then enough. Kinda puzzling how we manage to have 5 left when we only made 90 cards when there are over 97 teachers in our school. Oh well, at least you can't say Astronomy Club is for nothing right now. XD (I practically drill the name into teachers)

And on another unrelated note, got hit by a minor outbreak of allergic reaction. The frustrating part miraculously isn't the itchiness or the scratching part (although they do annoy the hell out of you) but it's not being able to pinpoint the cause of it. There was the Twisties a few years back. But now what? Well, thank god the modern medicine is way much more effective then some traditional rice wine being dabbled all over your body this time.

So overall, I would say it's a happy day for me. (happy in the sense, where there are no mood swings or PMS-ing syndrome on yours and truly) =P
