WooHoo! Its Friday, the best day of the week. Today life was good and stimulating. Emotions were raging and nerves were working at infinity speed. Heres a ciriculum time story.
ML wasn't in school today, so the class did their own stuff. Which was to sit down in a circle at the front of the class and discuss the class outing and to play hand games with each other occassionally discussing homework. The ideal school life. But of course, a teacher had to come and interupt this bliss. This f******* and f******teacher from next door came into the class and started screaming and shouting accusations. Talking about accusations, L's class was made to stay back after FRC. They were alleged to have played music in class yesterday. But they were having remedial!!! wow, a virtual class playing music! Soon was his nice self and dismissed them with a joke or two. Of course, a class of L would never get themselves into trouble with the school. Now, with the school doesn't mean with one single damned teacher. She sounded like she came from a primary school. When she went, L was seething and you could see and even feel the smoke pushing its way out of her pores. 'How dare that woman barge in and say such things about our class!' She crapped like all teachers crapped about how it was supposed to be a good class and that they should live up to expectations. Helloooooo, you're talking to humans here, and teenagers at that. get the hint.
They decided tentatively to go for ice-skating. Whether it stays like that or not, L will be going ice-skating. And guess what? yupyupyup! with the fish she caught a few weeks ago.
And during chinese, L had a short spar with the sheep. Apparently L didn't study, when the truth was she didn't study ENOUGH.
After school, L had a very hard time trying to stop herself from starting a quarrel with C. You had no idea how much C infurated L. She slacks and lames and cracks when she's around, and she blames people for the undone work! And who does she blame? L! What a bloedkatze. (haha you don't understand) After the 3 people namely L, H and C finished being very active crabs, they finally got down to business. The first people namely J other than our wonderful 3 people turned up at 3. Not so bad, the sec ones were ok too, since they came straight from their test. They started filming at 3.30. But L had no idea what those people were doing. She specifically told them to get chairs, clean the board and sweep the floor, but in the end, they only got the chairs, and that was after 2 crabs took some pleasure and snapping at each other. Before that she was running all over the school looking for an irresponsible forgetful F. Apparently, APPARENTLY, all T had been thinking about was her bio project, and then guess where L found her? The LIBRARY! She was sitting on the floor searching for books! That F. But L had a nice time telling her how she made everyone wait for her. If she had been there earlier, they done 2 scenes, and now, those 2 scenes were the last 2 of the day. Before they went back to the set, they went to look for teachers to act as teachers to no avail. yes yes, teachers to act as teachers. Neither MG nor ML was so free. Oh, and L found out that MG listens to music and actually moves to the music while she marks papers. Interesting. Of course, it takes L to find out such things.
She asked T(m) but had to wait like 10 minutes before the man talked to her. He was talking to the leader of the school's alumni choir. Heres another story.
The school's alumni choir's room is at the 4th floor, but all the old men and women didn't want to climb up so many flights of steps. So someone kindly offered them the use of the m.rm. When T(m) found out that they wanted to move things into the room, he freaked. L first heard about this last friday. He had suggested that they move whatever they need into the room but MUST move it back out when they were done. The room was small enough as it was without them having extra furniture in it. And today, he found out that they had moved a platform in, and they wanted to move in another 3 stacks of chairs. T(m) was trying to get the man to understand his desposition, and much much to L's surprise, in very fluent and flowery Chinese. Oh well, he was from a Chinese school. All L can do is to hope for that kind of achievement when she leaves the school. Ha. However flowery and polite his words may be, the faces he made were far from that. He rolled his eyes, pulled long faces and frowned many many times even as he was speaking in a very pleasant tone. Ha, what do you call that? It starts with a H. Nah, actually he made it quite clear that he wasn't very happy about it too, so can't call him that.
Now, after his call, L finally got to ask him. And guess what? He couldn't do it, because he had to pick up his darling wife at 4.30. Oh well, the number of times he mentions his wife and the way he talks about her really shows something, oh well.
So they had to make do with the few people they had. Considering, they did a pretty good job. L was very thankful that their main character Joey, actually F (happy H? fyi she feels bad bt. calling her joey all the time 2) was so cooperative, tolerant and patient. Wow, she's a gem to work with man. The others were fine, but F was really really nice. Her acting was kinda good too. Must think of something nice to tell her at the end of the whole thing. yupyupyup, always motivate and praise your team members was something she learned at many of her camps in primary school.
L never thought that making a film would require so many damned shots. But it was interesting, and the camerawoman was cooperative too. There, she's praised her. Altogether, it was a pleasant time filming. Everyone wanted to go home, but there wasn't any real complaints, only occassional whines which amounted to nothing. The only idiot was T who had to go for something important. Fine, understood, you don't have to keep reminding your dear director everytime she wants to rehearse or redo a shot.
Finally, they left the school at 5.30.
Wow, L will have a busy day tomorrow. 9-1, MOELC, 3.30-4.30, piano, and at 5, relay practice. ha, what a wondergirl.
On the way out, our musketeers talked their usual gossip with a tinch of seriousness and matureness. They shouted hi to MN and MW twice. They looked so amused everytime they turned around to return the greeting. They turned round the third time when L and C shouted 'NOOOO' when they saw they f******* bus drive off into the sunset.
Cool day.
you know you love me
