a controversial week it seems, as suggested by the title above, as 2 things happened, and it has practically ruined the union of the class utterly... 1 into 2...
the reason behind was that the relevation of an incident which has been kept secret, and to describe it, the incident was in regards of a group of people (about one third it seems) had used some illegitimate tactics to during examinations...
obviously this incident will cause great ripples to occur, and the effects were devastating. the union of 4s1 was completely ruined, with one class literally torn into 2 opposing factions... throughout the week, i read the blogs of others... most of them gave their respective views in regards of the incident, with some can be considered offensive... even more when considering the fact that the perpetrators had lack of remorse in it...
as said, views differ from each other, thus kindly refer to their respective blogs to have a full view of it, though i cannot guarantee that there will be no bias statements within... as of me, wht do i think of it??
to define the word "examination", one can say that it is a divine indicator of the mastery of a person within a subject, hence the results must be measured properly... somehow this principle has not obeyed by certain people, much to the sorrow of others... including those who may have the chance to get the top seats "legitimately"... but utterly ruined...
as for the reaction.. some abused words of great offense towards others, which actually exhibits the lack of remorse... not to say that they are of mischief or otherwise, their plight could be fathomed. just imagine that you had done something unchecked for years, and suddenly was exposed to the light and furthermore indirectly humiliated.. if i were to be in their stand, probably i will as well have the same emotions as they are...
besides this, great destruction it wrought, but the full extent of incidents i will not write it down here, until i am able to confirm everything thrown against, and wht was spoken in their defense...
i always strived to earn something legitimately i.e. through legal methods and without defying my principles... and i always advised people to do so. should it turned out to be a failure, there is nothing to be ashamed of, as it is never the endgame...however if one is to use tactics and deceit to achieve success, then that is utterly meaningless and pointless...
however this event shook me as well, as i tried to know who can i trust upon. i consulted pn.khoo elven queen once again for guidance, and this was wht she said to me...
"Sometimes there are always people who befriend you just to get the advantage out of you, you should know your instincts well and decide on who should you trust. As for her, it is best that you don't tell her anything, as I know that she may effectively betray your confidence. Even if you wished to confide things to her, do remind her that it is confidential and not be said. Above all, do not let your emotions master you, you will scare her and I'm sure that you do not want it..."
again i was reminded not to let my emotions rule my heart, as evident in certain situations... my own mind is always on action, in thoughts of things in which i desired answers out of it, and yet sometimes i think too much, as evident during physics paper... worried too much, as in presentations for fear of being laughed upon... think too deep and detail, until the conclusion i get is out of logic and rationality...
it is actually possible that i included my emotions during my thoughts and it effectively clouded my judgements, thus committing a great deal of things that made me regret... some of it include the unpredicted rage, extremity in usage of words and so on... this week holiday can serve as a refresher, as i can cool down my mind to prepare for the next 2-3 months...
but from there, i know that there are always people who will side with me.. even in the darkest of tides... at least now i feel comforted, no longer need to worry of determining people whom i can place my confidence upon...
forget about the matter... yesterday was the opening ceremony of the "merdeka" month, and some classes performed some shows... the 2 best ones i can say is the choir from 4s2 and 4a... as well as the drama performance of 4s1. they both put up a great show, indirectly telling the audience that hard work, endurance coupled up with interest and enthusiasm can yield spectacular results... which is actually true..
rather anxious of the finals tomorrow... why? as malaysia may have the chance to win its first gold medal since its first participation on the year of 1956... as our badminton player chong wei is going to square off against the crrent world no.1 player lin dan at 10.30 am tomorrow...
in fact many of our hearts jumped quite fast the moment we know that malaysia is playing that particular round.. and although almost of them lost, they do put up a spectacular fight. and on thursday, during the quarterfinals, we were all like awaiting the latest news... win or lose, dead or alive... until when mr.karuna announced to us that ching wei won, then we actually jumped up.. so happy with the apparent success.. and felt proud with it...
the next post will be probably be posted either tomorrow.. or on monday night, after i uploaded the 4s2 video up...
