HI!
Wow, Sec 3 already.
I know many of you are wondering how my first day was...
Actually I can't say much, 'cos I wasn't in class most of the time.
But I'll just say a little bit about the Sec 1 Orientation that I was involved in.
I was the SL/tourguide for class 1N2~! Not a very enthusiastic bunch though.
I had trouble finding the most enthusiastic person to nominate out of the class, so I just chose the one who participated in all of the games actively.
I can still remember her name... Claudia!
OK, if the class ever reads this, they'll probably hold a grudge on me, but I don't care.
I made her go on stage to do a difficult challenge, which will be explained later.
But I shall talk about my experience of the first day school as an upper-Sec.
Morning duty, I'm doing Classroom Patrol, Sec 3s and 4s block. So, I already knew where my new classroom was. But before duty, I noticed most of the Sec 1s wearing this particularly ugly shirt, which I presumed was the Primary school uniform or something, which was actually the new JWSS PE shirt. There's the new PE shorts too.
Just imagine the school logo on the PE shorts as the four-letter word "JWSS" in purple thread.
Refer to
Travis' blog for the picture of the PE shirt when he's gotten the picture.
In particular that morning, I couldn't find my school badge (of all the days), so I called Travis early that morning to help me purchase one.
So, my dad sent me to school as per normal, walked into school, went up to the hall, realizing the guys I know are all wearing their traditional long pants, astonished, went down to look for Travis for my badge, paid him back for my badge, and I just happened to run into Phoebe and her sister at the canteen buying drinks. As any other lost, new Sec (place a number 1 - 5 here) person, I followed her up to the hall.
Started duty, blah blah blah, realized I was too excited to start the new term that I've forgotten to apply the duty of placing my blue Councilor notebook into my bag, but so did everyone.
And my form teacher is Ms Wang, you know, the one that substituted Ms Wong last year for Maths for awhile, yeah that one. :)
So far, I think she's doing a pretty good job in being a form teacher, but if there were any problems with her, I'd wouldn't even tell YOU here. I'd get in trouble.
Uptill now, we've pretty much met all of our subject teachers, they'll all really nice. No wonder the upper-Sec always have close ties with their teachers.
But in class that day, into the part where we had to pick out our Vice-chairperson, I had to leave already, so I don't know what else happened in class. Si Yuan and I were the only ones from the class involved in the orientation.
Skipping the Sec 1s meeting their fellow SLs, tour around the school and the games. Here's the challenge for the supposedly most enthusiastic student in every class:
You have to obtain these difficult items within the hall:
- A lock of the longest hair
- 2 pairs of socks
- A size 46 shoes
- An Adidas Watch
- A 1-cent coin
The class were really reluctant in helping her at all, so I had to try to convince them in doing #1, 2 and 4.
#5 was almost impossible, like, who still uses a 1-cent coin?
#3 was HILARIOUS! There was only one person in the hall wearing size 46 shoes. And it was the Emcee, Afif. Therefore, 2 of the enthusiastic class representatives chased him around the hall, until one of them got the pair.
In the end, Claudia didn't win most enthusiastic student. But nevermind, the class had fun, or so I think.
