after 35 days...

this story refers to the row of girls sitting watching the game

After almost 35 days of being nice and keeping cool (one of my new year resolutions) I lost it at Centre Court today! I was so disappointed with my students I shouted at them for making their own decision and ignoring my instruction. If I had my way, I would have made them walk back to school. As I screamed my heart out at the form 4 girls, the form 2 girls looked at me in horror. For the form 2s, this is their first time seeing me blow! As for the form 4, I couldn't talk to them, we just communicated through written messages. (Bila ingat balik cam bodoh je pulak).

It started with the PCK's instruction to take the freshies to cheer for the school's netball teams. Despite telling her in the meeting that the form 1 will not be ready to cheer but she insisted. Ok, fine, 'saya yg menurut perintah'. As agreed, the form 1s would go! I prepared a name list of the SZ Form 1 girls who were supposed to go, signed by HEM and posted on the school notice board for public info.

Tup, tup this morning TF came with a group of F2 students. And I was like"What??!!", of course I was irritated as they got to bring the F2. It turn out that the Boss was not happy with the fact and declared "Engkar arahan Pengetua!", ah..aku dah cuak when she started nagging on things I dont want to know. I left the scene and went for lunch.

While I was having my 3rd spoonful of rice, I was informed that the SZ girls have arrived and they were not the F1 girls I have listed. I couldn't swallow my food anymore. Lucky the Boss had gone back to school. I just went straight to the girls and when I immediately saw the 3 F4 girls, in my heart it just went, 'damn it!' and I couldn't hold my self together anymore. I let them have it. *bla bla nag nag bla bla* (hahaha)

Then I left them standing there, Atun took me aside and took me out of the court to let me cool. She even gave me a bottle of cold water when we went to the shop. After talking to Kak Ina and En Saleh. I was finally cool and decided to give them a penalty.

Came back to the court, wrote them a message, saying the can watch the games but they can't cheer. They are only allowed to clap knowing they were dying to cheer for the school's teams. But I have to teach them a lesson. I have forgiven them but I am very regretful for what had happened today. Its suppose to be something simple but they have to complicate things. I need have a 'loooooooooong' talk with these girls as soon as I get back from my duty tomorrow.

Was I being unreasonable with what I did? Or these students are taking advantage of me for being nice to them? Well, from now on no more nice Cik Fitah..but a damn strict Cik Hafitah. So, SZ girls...u better watch out..your House Mistress has got her fangs on and she eats kids for breakfast. (hahaha)

I feel so relieved after writing this...I got back my cool as soon as the games started. See, I cepat cool tau!
*Atun said my face was so red, as if I was gonna explode. Thanks for the cold drink..it really cool me down. sayang adik akak. Good luck to the team tomorrow. U18 already in the final and I will surely pray for the U15 team.
