IT TAKES A VICIOUS SPAMMER TO GET THINGS MOVING.


apologies for the lack of updates.


some of us at eldds have been going through trying times, and we have been spending our time sometimes even after cca to rectify the problems that have been created. but nevertheless, jo, fgt, cy, we'll pull thru this.


the past week was turbulent. i ended up, for the first time in my life, half-asleep thru a lesson. something's wrong with me. it's not my fault my appetite to eat at school has shrunk. i eat like a madwoman at home and outside, but smth about school food just bleeding puts me off. thank god for lunch buddies like jo.


yesterday, was what i would call a day of revolution for eldds. why?
it seems, parents of certain members had been calling the teachers-in-charge to (in colloqial terms) 'complain' about the amount of time their children were spending in cca. and because, some of my friends were really downcast about it. and due to my ever-burgeoning schedule (did i mention i'm secretary of the IN Crowd ExCo?), i requested to be taken out of SYF as Ms Williams's understudy. So, I was running up and down the stairs looking for Grace, Ms.w's Sec 1 understudy. Surprise, surprise, the darling had transferred out of eldds. So, Ms Parv found Irid (not her real name), another sec 1, to understudy for ms williams.


being the obsessive perfectionist i am, i had felt quite insecure and disappointed when the rest of the cast had to give me directions for when i understudied Ms W for a FULL RUN on wednesday. sailesh wasn't there to play her, so i took over. and i had to read from the script..so.


as such, when i saw that a new girl was taking over, i took it as my responsibility to train her in slightly under 2 mins how to play the role. she had the script and didn't need to show much emotion or anything. she was really frazzled and kept saying, ' i don't want to make mistakes!'. but i managed to calm her down and everything. a few minutes later, i found out that she had broken down. taking pity on her, i told her that I would FILL IN FOR HER, and that she could just observe me, for this time only.


well,
my blood boiled for real this time. Irid was busy talking to her friends, who had done her the great job of distracting her, and not observing me. so, the tears were for? it was a blatant show of irrational behaviour. served me right for taking pity on her.



until then,
