SCHOOL REOPENS
"Pin up your fringe!"
"Unfold your skirt, I want to see it at knee length!"
"Your sideburn is too long!"
"Why so many ear sticks, take it out!"
"Zip up your pants!"
All these lines are familiar lines teachers shout at their students on the first day of school... But what about the last one? Is that very common?
Today, we shall see the first day of school in Fuhua Secondary through the eyes of a typical (or not-so-typical?) Prefect.
She woke up at the ring of the alarm clock in the morning, at 5.45 AM in the morning. She only had 4 hours and 44 minutes of sleep exactly, but somehow she felt rather energised. Was it the excitement that gave her such exuberance?
After jumping off the bed, heading to the wardrobe and battling with the troublesome hangers, she went to the washroom to wash up for the day. Uniform on, contact lenses on, hair up- oh wait, where's the rubber band and the pins?
She sprinted downstairs. But sprinted back up after she couldn't find what she was looking for.
Back in the washroom, she looked around, trying to take in every single detail. Where was it, where were the rubber band and pins? How come she can't find it, it should be just- Oh wait. It was next to the sink all the time.
Clicking her tongue, she whipped her hair up into a ponytail and fastened about four pins on her head. Good, now she's set to go get her socks and head down for The School Bag.
She took her School Bag and gulped down the breakfast prepared for her and marched out of the front door together with her Father. The day's been going great so far. But suddenly, while waiting for the lift, she realised she doesn't have her Prefect badge on. Oh shit, where is it?
Running back home, she flipped around her table, only to find nothing but old worksheets and books. She gave up and went to school in the end.
After greeting Ai Jing at the spiral stair case, passing Christine (Shun Oguri stuff), Kelila (Blythe Doll shoes), Darryl (Hello Kitty face towel) and Vincent and Jian Xing (RSVP Pens) their presents, all in chronological order (except for Vincent and Jian Xing, who weren't around to receive their gifts. So she had Darryl deliver it to them), she ran down to 2I5.
Chit chat a bit in the class, and look- it's Jing Yong! She rushed to her, squealing, "JING YONG!" and they hugged each other.
Skip a bit, because this part is a bit mundane.
(I'm sure you're getting bored? And I still have a long way to go)
She went to do late coming duty with Jing Yong, Jin Fu, Javan, Deborah, Shi Ting, Siti Liyana and Dionis. Surprisingly, there were very few people late on the first day of school, which was different from the usual and expected custom, where throngs of people were late on Mondays. (Particularly first-days-of-school[s])
Dum dee dum, when the Sixth Person To Be Late arrived, something amusing happened.
He, a Sec 3 student, walked meekly up to the late coming counter.
"You have to write your name down on that slip over there and," she went on without flinching, "your pants aren't zipped."
Immediate laughter among people who heard it.
The Sixth Person To Be Late didn't seem to have heard it, so after bouts of laughter, Jing Yong told him once again, "Your pants are not zipped up!"
He still didn't realise the reason for everyone else's laughter.
Javan then told him, "Zip up your pants!" And that was when he looked down and went, "Oh! Paiseh, paiseh."
That is his name on the late coming list. Oh, he's the second one on the list, by the way.
In case you didn't notice his 'Reason for coming late', I'd tell you. It was "overslept overslept overslept". So Jing Yong and I came up with this scenario (or is 'theory' a better word?) that, he overslept once and this was what happened:
6.45AM
SPTBL: -glances at alarm clock- OH SHIT I'M LATE. OVERSLEPT
(he then proceeds to crash back into his bed)
-At 7.15AM-
SPTBL: -bolts upright- OH SHIT I OVERSLEPT
Therefore, he overslept twice.
I actually feel quite sorry for him, you know. Being laughed at on the first day of school and having completely no idea what's going on.

Haha okay enough of that. Enough of typing in third person. I've got loads more to say so I'll continue in the next post because this one is getting long. It's been long since I've written a wordy post? I do prefer typing then pasting picture links all the time... Well, more on that later.
