Unfair Labour Practice
Do you see that poor boy? Now, times that by a 100 and that's what WE poor year niners have to carry on OUR aching backs for one long, non-stop, no-breaks-unless-you're-dying-or-something, school week! Talk about one ton of spine-squishing homework. I'm positive they're trying to kill us by piling thousands of books on us everyday in the hopes that the insane weight might accidentally squash us entirely. IT IS TIME TO GO ON STRIKE!
Nah, im just exaggerating :D
They don't break our backs. Just sort of bends it a little. But there IS a fair sized gap between the amount of homework given last year to the amount of homework given THIS year. Especially when it comes to projects.
Chinese New Year is supposed to be all about celebrating. Fireworks.. oranges and alot of ang pao(cha-ching!). But sadly, the 'authorities' have set us an absolutely UNACCEPTABLE amount of hmwrk and projects to do this holidays. What happened to fesitvity? Most of the teachers have probably manifested into something utterly inhuman from teaching this retarded school. It's supposed to be 7 whole days of joy and chinese new year spirit but for some of us.. the only spirit we'll be feeling is the lingering, dark, sinister aura of our teacher's threats echoing in our already-half-dead-from-being-forced-to-think-too-much minds. It's sad to think that some people are enjoying their fantastic holidays, stuffing themselves with delicious food while we sit hunched up in our room brooding over the 9 laws of indices. Just the thought of that ugly pile of homework stacked up in a dark corner of the room sends chills up my spine. At least we'll have a COUPLE of days to ourselves. I'm hoping to finish my work before the next weekend.
Although this post has just added to the weight of evil thoughts in your mind, you still have to remember to be POSITIVE! And even though i am not feeling as cheerful as my sentence suggests, ill still try to live up to that sentence. Because when you are WILLING to do something...
