Another Attendance Affair

My tooth ache has gone and I am happy. You never know how fortunate you are to have a set of teeth that is functioning perfecly fine until one day, a wisdom tooth decides to grow and mess up your life. The tooth has not appeared yet but the swelling has subsided by a considerable amount and if the pain is gone, that nothing else mattered.

But, I am starting to feel a little pain on the right now.

Anyhoo, today in college, we had a period to meet our CT and that was when the Maths HOD, I think came into our class and reprimanded us. And it was not for something that we even did. So, apparently, the attendance list for lectures are extremely vital that the teachers actually bothered to look through it religiously. I've always thought attendance list is just a show, you know, a kind of non-verbal threat to warn you not to skip lectures.

Oh anyway, so what happened was there was 1 Maths lecture where the CG did not receive the attendance list and none of us signed our attendance. But then, this teacher came in to class this afternoon and 'accused' our whole class for skipping lectures. Quoting him, he "was not too happy".

Firslty, how can a group of 28 young adults be missing from lectures and nobody happened to realise that there are 3 rows of empty seats in the LT until one teacher decides to look through the list and find ludicrous comments against our names?

So, he threatened to not let us go until the culprit who wrote things like "sexy", "pretty", admitted and it turned out it was a guy from our CG. Pretty dumb la.

Then, the teacher further complicate his own job and our lives at that moment by 'accusing', yes, again, the people who had the silly remarks against their names for playing truancy and thus not being in the lecture and failing to sign our names.

Just when I thought my life is getting a bit too dull.

Anyway, I've been thinking too much and it striked me real hard this time- I don't really want to study in a JC.

hate is a strong word, but i really really dont like you.
