Immature

There was IPP and EE yesterday. my classmates did not take it seriously. I guess many ppl dun really take it seriously. If it was a real emergency, I'm sure there'll be a few dead students. My classmate even wanted to go to the toilet instead of returning to class. one of the sec4 class left all their windows open. since sch says 'assume u have the IPP kit alr' so they 'assume all windows are closed'. EE followed after IPP. some ppl took their own sweet time to walk down the stairs to the assembly area. I'm sure that in a real situation, they would become bbq pork at the rate they assemble. If the fire were to spread fast and quick, they would be more than bbq pork. roast pig, maybe. or even sth burnt.
I realised that in the 4 years i've been in Chung Cheng, I've not encountered any need for IPP or EE to be carried out. The only impression of EE i've encountered is during my 6 years in NHPS. there were 2 incident ( including the 'accident') the 1st was when I was in P1. one of the air con box (or whatever it is) of the container classroom burst or exploded then the alarm went off. Another time was in P5 or 6. a junior was goin back to class after music lesson. this kid started to hit the railings, walls etc. as he walk back to class with his classmates. Unfortunately, he hit the fire alarm system outside the toilet. you know? the red one which says break glass or sth like tt to set the alarm going? Anyway, the alarm went off and everyone had EE.
Back to the point... this post is titled immature. but i've not reached tt part yet. now i shall start on it. After EE, we were given the green light to return to class. my classmate actually climbed out of the window to retrive a softball from the roof of the foyer shelter as it was just outside our classroom. in the sense that it was at the area the window is- out of reach usually.
Went for CO Prac aft school taday. the new teacher came ltr during the session. there was lots of fun and laughter. quite late le. i think i'll stop here.....

Thoughts...

Last night, my cousin chat with me on msn. It was just a casual chat, about school, about going to our maternal grandparent's place on saturdays, about accademic, about the stress we start to have and the feeling that 24 hrs a day is not enough. Then, I told her about R&W lesson earlier yesterday, when we went to the lab to do this career guidance. Curious, she asked me what was the results. I told her what I could remember... Broadcast Journalist, Child Care Teacher, Kindergarten Teacher... After which, I asked her what she'd like to study? she told me she remembers what I said. She wants to study child psycology. My target is to study Child psycology and early education. Then, we started to move away from the subject. We started talking about children, about being with kids, how different it is from socialising with people, with grown ups. We started chatting about the innocence of a kid, how we used to be like that. A kid. Carefree, with no worries, in our comfort zones, knowing nothing much about the world, thinking that the world is a kind place. However, as we grow, we start to become polluted. "polluted in the mind" I told her, with us starting to learn sick stuff and dirty words. We are no longer that innocent kid we used to be.
In the middle of the chat, I AFKed to take medicine. Even while taking medicine, my mind was thinking of certain stuff. And out of no where, this thought popped into my mind. As we grow older, the way we take our medication is different as well. I used to swallow bitter chinese medicine with honey in it, to make it taste better. antibiotics are poured into this small little spoon or filled in a stringe. chinese medicine is taken using a table spoon. now, I just drink the 'syrup' from the bottle, estimating the amount I drink. I don't melt the tablets or empty the powder from the capsules into warm water or 'syrup' respectively. I just swallow it with the help of water.
It's amazing how much I can think of in a night, how much thoughts run through my mind. Even while I'm typing now, listening to the radio, millions of questions and thoughts run through my mind. I'm thinking of other things as well.
I can just go on typing till past midnight, till the moon sets and the sun rises. However, I'll need to stop here now before I bore you and make you feel drowsy or fall asleep with this long post. It's almost 11:30 pm. I've got test(s) tmr. I'd btr sleep since I've not fully recovered yet. Therefore, I shall stop... like in a few sentence or words time...
As usual, you can still go tag in my old blog. I'll look out for tags and reply in my next post ( if I remember) and I'll try to post at least one post each month as I'll probably be quite busy...
