2 AMAZING thing happened today...
The first two period today was art, which our whole class seriously hates the whole lot to the core of jupiter (thx lanyuan XD)... But Mdm. Lai wasn't in sku so YEAH!!!! I slept through out... Then come chinese... The first thing *Esther XD did to me was to ask me "have u done the compo I call u to do" U noe the answer... And she gave me the kind of face like when a woman is giving birth... Then again, I continue sleeping... After which when wenbin woke me up to sign the stupid thing for The Straits Times, I saw the pile of Friday Weekly and took one... One of the smaller headlines was abt this too-much-of-a-saliva-person calling Singaporeans "stupid pple" I got pretty worked up and read the detail**... He said in the show where he was interviewed tt singaporeans are stupid simple bcoz of their ancestors... WAT NONSCENCE?!?! First, how many language does the pple in his country (Taiwan) know or even learn? Honestly, it's 2 for the max and one of them, which is hokkien, is such an "uncivilised" language... And HOW MANY WE Singaporens learn? Up to 6!!! 6 leh!!! 6!!! Dun play play!!! English is a must for us... Then our mother tongue, some of the pple same age as me is learning third language and some of the other rare few may noe dialects.... Some of the adults working outside might be learning the other mother tongues in our country (chinese learn malay or tamil then the malay learn chinese etc. Last... We have our own language- Singlish... MR LI YAO... UR COUNTRY HAVE MAH???
So I was pretty "motivated" by this sorta ting and rote a letter/short exposition abt having debate sessions in our school like riverside and woodlands ring... I wanted to put it into the suggestion box but erm I saw Mr Tan and passed it to him and he was like "I m vry impressed, infact Im giving it to our VP. But this LITTLE letter might not be able to have the power to convince others to hold such BIG event"**
Bernice told me on the bus " No worries! If the sku does not allow us to have debate session as a 'public' thing then we can have our own!"
I tink tt is a good idea and if our doubts left unsolve, maybe we can call a tcher to be our audience and to decide who is rite and who needs to learn (I won't say its rong lah) frm the session. Not bad eh? So anyone interested to join pls pls pls contact me or tell me in sku. deal? haha...
*Esther is the tcher
