Now, please give me a moment to explain what I am about to do. In the next few lines you shall be reading of my duly written bitchings complaints about something that I, as well as other classmates of mine, feel entirely discontented about.
Having said that, I fervently pray that the person involved in this public outcry will never ever read this or I shall have my ass skinned and my life terminated before I can say "shit!!". Seriously. So, having said that, here we go...
In my 17 years if life, I have loathed, detested and despised too many teachers to count. Of course, I should hope that the number would be few as it is not entirely pleasing nor wise to be in the state of resentment towards someone who is to give me a whole year's worth of education and determine much of my success in examinations. But there are, regrettably, some teachers who have fallen into my disgrace for reasons that I cannot fully describe. I had hoped to be on good terms with the citizens of my new school in Banting, but alas, my hopes have been dashed - not once, not twice, but... quite a number of times.
One of these people to have let me down is XXXX. I am sorry to not be able to use names for security reasons, but just to give thou a hint: The subject the person teaches is the subject being taught by my favourite teacher of all time. Now, this teacher is not all that bad - in fact there are others whom I loathe far more than the one in question, for example another one, XXXXX who keeps degrading Sarawak by saying things like, "Of course lah you don't have the (subject he/she teaches) paper because you live in Sarawak. You live by the river ah?" (I really wanted to kick him/her) and other things implying the same thing with the same tone.
Anyway, back to the main topic, this XXXX that I have developed a slight dislike towards, grieved me as well as others like Lik Pin, Tejhpal and Boon Fang greatly during class. The story is like this: We were trying to do something a bit more than exepcted of us and correct mistakes in a piece of paper but the teacher in quesiton reprimanded us saying "it's so simple really, just add the 's' (ASS) there and don't go around the bush doing whatever.." (something like that lah) He aslo made us, the first class, copy a material that is C-grade, and why, I wonder? Why should we copy something that is way below our standard? He think we very stupid and lousy ah? Anyways, he is also damn boring and does not come into class very often, thank God...
I conclude my quoting some things from the Bible:
Psalms 119:99
"I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your statutes..."
Proverbs 5:13
"I would not obey my teachers or listen to my instructors..."
OK so I'm misusing the Bible and taking it all out of meaning, God forgive my sinful soul, but what I wanted to say was...
Luke 6:40
"A student is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher."
Romans 13:1
"Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God."
In other words, the Bible tells us to respect and honour authority as well as submit to them because God put them over us. I hereby proclaim that all that has been said about certain teachers to be ineffective. Null... I hope that keeps me safe... for now...
