   queer eye for the straight guy...
I just love that show. I won't say anymore about that.

Today was rather "interesting", we have 5 classes per day and during the last two, both my teachers got all weepy and cried a bit.

My English teacher is normally a very straight-forward, opinionated but is the best English teacher ever. We had been trying to decide democratically whether to study the novel "Things Fall Apart" (TFA) or "North and South" (N&S).

Problem is that:
-1/4 of the class wanted one book.
-1/4 wanted the other.
-The other 1/2 didn't care.

I wanted N&S since it was more of about the old European culture and I figured it would be easier to read. Not to mention TFA is about African colonization. Hardly something we could relate to, also it's a very linear and predictable story.

Anyway, the teacher hates TFA but hasn't taught it before therefore she would have to start doing notes on it so she could teach it to us. Although she didn't N&S was that bad she has taught it before and doesn't need to write notes on it to teach us.

Then she got all weepy because her brother doesn't have long to live and so by having to do an entirely new book of work she would get less time to spend with him. Needless to say, I've never heard my class go that quiet for more than 30 seconds.

Plus she does the yr13 A/Subsidary and had to do a shitload of work for them too.

hehe, after that the vote was unanimous to do N&S.

The fact is, as the 'extension' English class, she just wants us to do well in Cambridge (IGSCE).

After that little drama I went to my next class to find the Social Science teacher explaining why she was handing us over to a reliever.

Apparently her Ex-husband had 3 websites with a photo of her and her son (5yrs old) containing false information ie. she doesn't have legal custody over the kid, they aren't in NZ legally etc etc

Biatch thing is that her ex-husband has never met her son.

So the teacher had to hire an attorney, contact certain authorities and has had two of the offending websites removed. However one of them is still up. Unfortunately she got the bill for the attorney ($1700) and became even more distressed. Not to mention her son had broken his leg just 2 weeks earlier.

She told us all this just happened today, then got all weepy and cried a bit then left as soon as we got our reliever...

Wasn't that just an "interesting" day. And it's only the second day of school..

Coincidently I am just a little annoyed about something. People just love asking me "howzit going?" or "are you ok?" or "how've you been lately?" in their sugary sympathy coated voices..

v_v *sigh* V_V

Despite repeating "I'm fine" six times they still persist. Of course I think that has something to do with them finding out that I had broke up with my bf not so long ago. They actually thought I would cry about it!!?

I've just been expected to cry over a guy (just coz we dated 6 months doesn't mean my world revolves around him) and was persistently harassed in order to force some emotion out of me, for some little smidgen that I care for a little moresel of "it mattered to me and I do miss him" for their own lousy gossip filled inane lunchtimes... after saying so themselves that I rarely show much emotion and that I shouldn't be sad because there'll be better guys... *rolls eyes*... WHAT IN THE BLOODY DIABOLIC HELL DO THEY WANT FROM ME!!!!!!

They wonder whyyy I'm so short tempered.

Bugger it. I refuse to partake in making comments about my personal experience for them to dissect, analyze and criticize.
