Okay. This time I actually don't have an excuse as to why I was gone. If you're a blogger, you'll know what I mean. You feel good after typing up a new blog post BUT that slowly fades as day after day passes by....then you feel sad. That's why during the March Break, I managed to write 3 posts in 1 day because I was in the bloggin'-mood xP
Instead of following the "overdue" scheduled posts, I think I may shorten it a bit so I can get more recent events posted up here. So, instead of every 2 badminton game updates, I'm just going to write about the season as a whole, since it is over DDD; Also, the book reviews...yeah...haha.....you know how after you read a book, it is sooo fresh in your mind but then a few weeks after, you start to only know the basic plot of the book? Well, that is pretty much what I remember from most of the White Pine books that I read xDD .
Okay, just to test how well you know me, Guess which friend I am about to talk about? Go on, go comment, see if you get it right because if you have read my second rant, you know who it is.
Yup, it's Kayla. I don't know if it's just like a natural thing to get into arguments with new friends BEFORE you're actually use to them, which may take a few years, but anyways, these arguments are always happening. I have thought about it only being my problem and my fault but really? Yes, I know that I have a part in it but Kayla, you do too! (Kayla doesn't read my blogs btw, she says she doesn't READ blogs -.-)
Let me ask you a question: Do you think that because of how we're raised, it makes us, psychologically and instinctively, glamourize the world ? Like how there are always good, nice and friendly people? Because I'm starting to realize that some people are quite selfish. Yes, obviously there are criminals in the world but I don't exactly BELIEVE why people just can't be nice? -sigh-
So, Kayla and I have , after the English play incident, continued to be friends. We actually had a virtual confrontation and I regretted the moment she sent her response back to me. Anyways, that's not what I wanted to talk about today, it's 2 other minor incidents : Bullying and English - Chapter questions.
Okay,soo I'm not sure if you guys knew (I only knew because I heard about it on the announcements the day before) but on Wednesday, it was PINK DAY! By wearing pink on that day, it shows your support towards stopping bullying, so I thought, why not? And soo, I wore a pink sweater :D Since most people didn't wear pink, I asked Kayla why she didn't and she said, she didn't know, which was understandable. BUT, then she added, And I think it's pointless, By wearing pink, you don't ACTUALLY stop bullying. I wouldn't say that I got too mad but I get where she's coming from, saying that wearing pink isn't taking any action towards solving the problem. But even something AS SIMPLE as wearing pink on 1 DAY......and she couldn't do it. She even used,"Besides, I don't even have pink clothing", as her defence. BUT HA! I remember that she had a magenta cardigan >:( LIAR. Then, we both got annoyed and she said, You know? You can try to persuade me... . But then I responded with, I would but you wouldn'd be persuaded by me. And she said, Well, you could try? . Hmmm....well let me think about that....WHEN HAS THAT EVER WORKED!?!? And then silence. I just sat at my desk for the 5 remaining minutes of class before lunch and scribbled into my agenda.
Hey, sorry for the already long post, but I figured that since I didn't write a post in around a week now, might as well write a longer one :P
Next, English class. Okay, so we just finished Act 3 in Romeo and Juliet and so we were just taking up the questions. My teacher made us split into groups, gave each group 1 or more questions and we would write our answers on a piece of chart paper. They did this for Act 2 but I wasn't there due to a Badminton game.
So, once again my unluckiness scores us a question that I wasn't confident about answering. Anywho, I had 4 other friends to help me out (Kayla, Terri and Hannah were there btw). When we were trying to share our answers, turns out that I had misread the question and therefore, answered it wrong :$ . The good thing, was that I was famiilar with the Act and besides, my friends must have some answers. But sadly, Kayla didn't even DO the questions (shame) and my other friends were just kind of sharing what they knew, off the tops of their heads. Since we had to share these, it took us a while to discuss and finally agree on what to write on the paper.
Next, we had to decide on a speaker. According to Kayla,they all "talked" for Act 2, so it's only fair if I talk for Act 3.
W-T-F? DUDE, I wasn't even HERE when you guys did the questions, so it's not MY fault. PLUS, you didn't even complete the questions, you didn't have to speak ALONE AND I already said in the beginning that I didn't want to be a speaker. So, you know what ended up happening?
I HAD to be the speaker because my "friends" said, "I'm not talking." WELL I DON'T WANT TO EITHER :@ . But I just said some stuff and that was that.
So, you may be thinking that I am being bias towards Kayla because I'm the writer and you don't get to hear her side of the story, which is why I don't know if she is ACTUALLY selfish OR it's just what I percieve. Like, I don't have these problems with Hannah or Terri, soo......:/
If you have any comments on Kayla or what I should do, I'd like to see them (: And I hope you enjoyed this post.
Bloomed -> Blooming~

I wish I'd known about Pink Day. It was probably on the announcements, but our class makes it impossible to hear. I actually think I only have one pink article of clothing, and it's a t-shirt that's probably too small (at least, I'd hope so, because it fit me four years ago).
ReplyDeletePersonally, I don't get why, in English, she can't just call on people (who raise their hand) to answer questions. It's a lot less stressful and wastes a lot less time.
Actually, I thought Terri had agreed to read it, but then at the last minute, she said she didn't. I think I would have ended up reading it if you hadn't stepped up...so thanks (hug).
Also, I like your new background and colour scheme. Very pretty.
Oh, I didn't know that Terri was going to read it...I just thought that everyone didn't want to. Plus, I was sitting like 2 desks away from you and Terri, so I wouldn't be able to hear you guys if you guys were whispering.
DeleteOh yeah, my new background (: I just got bored with the plain green grass one. I like blue so this is good and it's simple soooo, I decided to change it xDD
No, that's the thing...we all THOUGHT she was going to read it, but apparently it was the opposite.
