An honest post about Teachers Day '09

Yes I KNOW I haven't been blogging because, yes... I have been busy. And I still am but I'm just gonna blog anyway.

About 2 weeks ago we celebrated Teachers Day!! *yay* *claps*

And no I will not post any pics up but I will make a short description about Teachers Day. In fact, I could describe it in one word,
LAME
Why lame? Ha. There are many reasons why. Lets start from the morning.
Ok so everyone was happy. Then when the speeches came, yea the usual. Memang boring la. The teachers sang a song for us... and they were ok.... but there wasn't the feel in their singing. The looks on their faces were like "We were forced to do this thing," No smiles. Why humiliate yourself and sing infront of your students right? Lame.
Then the prefects gave out their goody bagos!! They looked nice this year, green and had "Teachers Day '09" printed on it. They gave away "mini Oscars" to each teacher. Lovingly drawn, cut and painted. Problem was there were supposed to have the teachers face on the little Oscar, but it was due to some reasons that there was no picture. Some of the male teachers mistakenly got a girl Oscar... muahahahaha.... Lame.
Moving on we got to STONE for about an hour 'cause the teachers were playing games, which were lame. They even played "pass the ball". OMG. Thats one way to feel young... but it was ridiculous. Lame.
Then everyone went inside the hall for performances! There was only one word to describe the performance, and yes, the word is, Lame. The lower 6 did a few songs. One guy sang "Hungry Heart" and that was.... funny. Then there was another band who did Taylor Swifts "Love Story" which for me I thought was stupid. How many teachers do you think know the song "Love Story" let alone know who Taylor Swift is??!?! Yeah, and they said these songs were dedicated to the teachers. Pfftt. The upper 6 were lame 'cause they weren't.. serious. They would stop singing or they would go out of pitch. At least they sang more sensible songs like "Think of me" from Phantom of The Opera and "Memory" from the musical Cats.
The prefects singing was also pretty stupid. They were looking AT the microphone and NOT the teachers. Some out of pitch, some doing actions and some not and some didn't know what they were doing.
When it was announced the "last performance" I was annoyed 'cause I was supposed to do a drum circle, and maybe less than 5 min before I was supposed to do it my circle got cancelled 'cause there was no time left! What the **** man. It took me a week to get the drums and then you tell me that you don't wanna do the circle?? This was worse than lame. It was... mean. Like... oh look no time. Cancel the circle. Rhonwyn won't mind.
I feel so used. I wanted to do the circle because its with the teachers. And its the TEACHERS who get to play. Not sit there and watch dumb performances "dedicated" to the teachers.
Yeesh. So now you know why teachers day was so lame... and so stupid.
Performances, students and so called lack of time.
And I know some people might hate me for this post, especially the prefects. You know who you are.
But as the title says, its an honest post.
*out*
