OMG today's the most unluckiest day of my life.. EVER. I'm dang freaking pissed.

Wei jee was caught playing with his phone during elect class and C.L. not only confiscated his phone, she told B.T., who is the acting head of level. So B.T. storms in during math and made everyone stand up with hands in the air, like criminals. Then he started going on about the school rules and stuff and made everyone surrender their phones, which he confiscated. He collected round 20+ phones and he didn't give back our sim cards.. Yes, school policy dictates that the sim card must be given back to students upon confiscation. So he's not acting in cohesion with school policy. To make it worse, he barred us from bringing our phones to school for the rest of the term or year. He also threatened to keep our phones until the end of the year. Oh and she was still standing there with a smirk on her face. How lovely.
Those who did surrender their phones are also not allowed to bring their phones to school. So they got punished for obeying the school rules. Highly ironical. So basically what has happened is that from 1 guy being punished to 20+ guys' phones getting confiscated to 35 guys not being able to bring their phones to school? Wow. This matter has clearly been un-clearly blown out of proportion.
The head of level wouldn't do such a thing. He would give us a warning and then do some spot checks here and there just to make sure. Where did the spirit of community, which is ironically located among the 3 core values, disappear to? How can there be community when forgiveness is not included? For such a small matter, it has been blown up to a big issue. Sure, we flouted one of the rules. Nevertheless, a mountain out of a molehill, i say.But it's only the first time for our class no? All the other classes would surely churn out the same or even more number of phones not being surrendered before lessons start.
Poor wenhan, he got suspended from the prefectorial board because he didn't surrender his phone. The suspension was carried out in a very cruel and unkind manner, asking him to strip out the tie and badge in front of the whole class. A personal talk outside the class would have been much better.
Great, we have a concert tomorrow at the NUS cultural centre which ends at round 9-10. How do we contact our parents? Through almost non-existent public phones? Through the borrowing of a friend's phone that has probably been borrowed many time?
Sure we are to be blamed for not surrendering our phones but even more surely is that the matter per se has not been settled in a satisfying and compromising way.

Anyway, today's racial harmony day was fun, as usual. We were treated to a screening of Hotel Rwanda which i think is one of the best movies ever. dang nice.. Tutsis versus Hutus. War is really a stupid thing altogether. Yeps.
