bury
Heello readers. It's in the whee hours of the night and yes I suddenly had this strong urge to blog. Today wasn't so productive studying but so be it no guilt feelings because I was really drowning in the never ending math and my whole body felt so stiff, I needed to stretch badly. Did some deep stretching for a hour but after all the bearable pain I actually slept sleepy so I fell asleep in the middle of my living room for an hour plus. Woke up just in time for yoga and chiong there being a little late. Yoga session was good, more stretching and breathing.
Actually my real intent of this post is that I wanna talk about an incident that happened when I was secondary 4. It was really one of the few times where my intention was heavily misunderstood but I can't be so defensive but really who likes being misunderstood. But since it happened quite some time ago I guess I can safely just bury it here in my blog today.
So it was secondary 4 and graduation day was coming. X came up with an idea of a graduation dance for the teachers for appreciation on graduation day. So X approached my crew, funk up who just did a teachers day performance in sch during that period. And as majority of us in funk up actually hold leadership position, we agreed to help with choreography and it was a collaboration. The participants was the whole sec 4 cohort. So we alliance with this teacher who was the only teacher we knew this whole plan and wanted to do like a flash mob. So every week we have one of the morning sessions where we''re supposed to prepare this item together as a sec 4 cohort. During the first session, after the teacher briefed the cohort about the idea, he invited J and I up to start the dance session. J didn't want to hold the mike so I had to do it so I became the Main person teaching. It was very simple steps, some were quite cooperative but some were shy, some were clearly uninterested and not moving. But luckily I have quite a lot of friends who were quite supportive. The teacher couldn't stand how rude these particular group of people were as they were just sitting down not even standing and took over the Mike and said in a very serious tone, about how this is for the teachers, and if they''re not interested they can just leave. u know when teAchers say that it's actually telling you that they''re angry and better behave yourself but no one really dares to leave. But as the Mike was being passed back to me, that particular group of people just stood up and walked out. It was really an ultra awkward moment for me as everyone witness it and I still have to be cool about it and continue teaching in that awkward atmosphere. The problem is, those people that left are not picking on this issue but picking on me. I know they all detest me for some reasons when they don't even know me personally and truly. They even complained how stupid this idea was because it came up from me. Like own self like to dance then go dance why must drag everyone down. This is called 争对人，不争对事。this whole graduation dance thing wasn't even proposed by me. I am the choreographer because the dear proposer is not a dancer and cannot choreograph. The dear proposer is your classmate some more. 你说气不气，冤不冤? But in the end the graduation flash mob was still completed and successful, thankful to all the others who cooperated through the rest of the sessions :)
I really dislike rash people. It's like the more rash you are, the more no brain you are. Because you don't know how to think, think of the consequences for your actions.
Anyway just some reflection, I know I used to hear all the random people claim that they hate me for some unknown reason, because I was quite High profile last time. Tall, dancer, netballer and vice president of student council and in e1., I admit that I was dominating in the past and may be a lil annoying in that sense but the me last time I. That position I couldn't see. But now as I I learn to take a backseat and find that small roles make me truly happy, I can see from the point of views of the people who hated me in the past and understand where they''re coming from. Having tasted both sideof the world I'm proud to say that I like it better now. Simple and happy. Also, I've decided that in situations where I need to make a decision to be happy or be a good person, I will be a good person and not hurt someone in exchange for not being happy :) goodnight.
