Thoughts. Or rants.

Does being older gives one the authority to disregard the younger ones? I mean, so what if you're older? Does that necessarily means that you're the "wiser" one? Today I experienced something that made me think. A lot.

When I doing was some team building activities with my student during ALC today, I tried to make it clear to them the rules of the game when I saw them making mistakes. And to my surprise, one, or maybe two students told me to shut up. And gave me the shut-the-eff-up-you-know-nothing kind of attitude. I was dumbfounded. So I kept quiet but a gazillion thoughts were already running through my mind. Did I do something wrong? Was it something I said?

"Sticks and stones make break my bones, but words will never hurt me." My foot. I have to admit it was more of a shocking, rather than hurtful comment. Those girls who told me to shut up were girls that were older than me, erm, so yeah. Come to think of it now, it actually made sense. I'm assuming the older ones do not like to be told what to do by the younger ones. I know assumption is the mother of all screw-ups lah, but I'm gonna assume anyway.

I think it's tiring having to go back to school during the holidays, especially on a Saturday. You think we don't feel the same way? I know you guys have "better things to do", like texting your friends or go shopping, ha. I know the weather is unbearable, but it does not explain for your crankiness. You think you're the only that's "suffering"? Think again.

I think it's really selfish of someone to just think from their own perspective. Everything have to be about me, me and me. Like, why am I doing this when I could be sleeping in on a Saturday? Why is this stupid school doing this to me? Why are we playing these stupid games, which is messing up my hair? I despise people who thinks that everything has to be about them, and if it doesn't go their way, it's lame and stupid. Open up your eyes, you're the dumb and oblivious one.

And it really saddens me to see students leaving halfway through the activities. Especially when they come up with lame excuses. It's okay for me if you can't acknowledge the effort that others put in, but leaving halfway because you're bored is just so irresponsible.

I can go on and on about this but I reckon I should stop here. On a lighter note, I had Jared as my partner and he was really nice lah. So yeah. Stupid tudung girl forgot about the whole event. Goon ttm. *facepalm

I shall end this abruptly. Kthxbai.
