wednesday, seems to be a long day after all.
two days passed, and two more to go.
to saturday, of course.
well,
today in sch,
mdm ng called me and david out.
we two wonder wad was happening.
and it turn out that she saw us laughing during national anthem,
when mdm lau walked past us to make sure we sing.
and during maths,
when i nvr say anything,
mr tham told me to SHUT UP if not i'll be out of the class.
i wasnt doing anything, and this angered me.
then those bitches at the back was cheering for it.
and when i ask mr tham questions,
he replied me with words hidden with sacarsm.
i went on to reflect abt these events.
first one.
u guys noe that the govt ask us to sing national anthem everyday,
just to keep as as "loyal subjects" to the "republic".
however,
instead of nuturing patriot feelings,
we were numbed by this activity of singing the national anthem.
and us singaporeans treat it like nth.
second event.
just to make sure his lessons goes well,
he scold me before anything happen.
and targeted those who once made mistakes in his class.
PS:
is the standard of singaporean dropping so low nowadays?
us, as citizens,
see the national anthem as nothing.
him, a teacher,
using a not-so-common way to treat his student;
they, classmates not supporting their own classmate.
the patriot feeling,
common and mutual respect;
things so basic and common overseas,
and yet singaporeans does not have?
how are we going to settle these problems?
we are improving our "standards":
lifestyle, fashion, health.
and we are also dropping back on our standards:
culture appreciation, respect, patriotism.
well,
is the country progressing,
or are we looking at the right target,
yet walking in the wrong direction?
