The other parts of the party
I'm just back from our class farewell party. Lots and lots happened, but I'm only going to write about a few lesser known events that took place, all of them bad news.
Right at this particular moment, Jiron is trying to get his car out of a ditch. He went to Judy's house to get the keys of Multimedia Room, which I left in Judy's bag. He had to get the keys because we need to put back the tables and chairs that we used for the party back into the room. Somehow, he got stuck in a ditch when he reversed his car. So now, a few neighbours and Judy's father is trying to get the car out...
Earlier, when we were packing up after the party ended, William got into trouble with a teacher because of the sound system we borrowed from school. Apparently, the teacher was half-drunk and gotten mad over a small matter. This was what caused me to left the keys inside Judy's bag, as I accompanied William to meet another teacher to settle the problem. I'm positive that things will be alright, first because the Principal was with us during the party, and secondly William had permission to use the sound system.
Talking of the Principal, she said something that really struck me just now. I was shooking her hand, bidding her farewell when suddenly her grip tightened and she pulled me slightly forward towards her. Then she uttered, "Study hard. We're targetting you to get 4A's". OH -- MY -- GOSH! Why on Earth did she had such a high expectation of me!? To be really-really darn honest, I have to admit that I couldn't prepare enough to challenge 4A's. I could try, but I'm not convinced.
Sometimes people talk to me as if getting straight A's is easy. Do they understand how much I sacrificed? I'm never fond of such talks, yet I do appreciate the high regard they have for me.
Anyway, I sang a song together with Jiron and William during the party. My singing was terrible. That doesn't hurt my ego though. I realised that I'm a musical idiot long ago. The only thing I'm sorry about was to become too excited about singing and hogged the mic to the point that Jiron and William didn't get their fair share of it. Mea culpa, buddies! I apologise sincerely.
I stop here. I'm sleep-deprived and exhausted.
