well, since the start of jan its been super cold...its never been this cold in dubai! i m pretty much sure of it! is it global warmin? nah that should heat up the place probably its global dimming
anyways, today was the open house, n for the first time i decided to do my duty as a badge holder

...look whose talkin bout repsonsibility hehe

. i thought i would skip it but then i felt guilty since i didn't come on the previous open house (sik with fever

) so i decided to come.
n so begins my day as i woke with darn alrm clock ringin in the mornin. as i stepped outside my house, the frosty breeze made shiver to my toes. it wasn't pretty comfortable in the bus since there were barely 3 or 4 ppl sittin far away from each other to provide any warmth. i thought i was early to reach skool n almost stepped into the class with my tie ragged down n the collar split open. luckily i noticed just in time n arranged my attire. till 10am i was helpin round the floor doin tiny chores...hasangi was actually frustrated by the fact that a friend had betrayed her trust

(the friend convinced her that she would come to skool but she didn't show up) then girls in our class skippin duties, n our seniors dumpin the dirty work on us.
at 10 we went down to the lobby to greet the parents n help them around. i was actually abit taken bak by seein ms alessa in formal attire

(neva seen her before like that!) she looked sophisticated. but unfortunately her manner just melted away the deceit. it wasn't that she was jumpin round, its just that she was doin a far more better job than us in greetin the parents

. our soft murmurs of respect were nothin compared to her loud n friendly greetins. as for me, it was pretty damn hard to keep on smilin for more than 15 mins, my cheeks started to ache, n i gave rong directions to a few parents (NOT INTENTIONALLY!

) n hasangi had to correct me, so from then onwards i usually told the parents to ask her for directions. after an hour i got bored n started to play sodoku on my mobile (mom's) but i wished weneva a parent(s) came in. but then i couldn't concentrate due to all the noise. after half an hour, my glumy face attracted warda's attention (must have looked like this --->

to her) n outta pity she took my spot n told me to take a break. after which i never came bak....

as i was walkin it was almost time for the skool band's performance, i forgot its name though. well the intro for first song sounded kinda familiar (hmm wonder if they had copied a few parts from somewhere) but the overal music was gd

. the prob was that the volumes for the mic weren't adjusted properly. the drums were the loudest n i felt srry for the kids who sat on the bench that was rite next to the huge speaker. the mic for the vocals was just pathetic, the voice came out muffled n low, it almost seemed like an instrumental band. the sad thing is everyone listened to the music while probably 3 or 4 cheered for them (probably their own friends) i enjoyed the music as i played my game of sodoku n did a little clap for them in the end

. after 3 performances it began to drizzle so it was time to cover up the equipment. ate a packet of chips. went upstairs n found hasangi. later we ate lunch which consisted of a sik soggy chicken burger, n roya made me completely lose my appetite by sayin that she saw a hair in one of them

(it was a joke ofcourse) had a can of mountain dew wen my dad called n said he was in my class.
turns out that he hadn't paid fees for dec & jan so i couldn't receive my report card unless the fees was paid

. well, i m a mini version of my dad in personality ofcourse. he didn't wanted to wait in the line cuz it was too crowded. impatient as always. seeing his stubborness i had no choice but to volunteer

. so i waited 30 mins in the line

. i played sodoku while i was waitin but then i got a headache n was sik of waitin. seriously that particular cashier was totally incompetent compared to others (probably new). while i was waitin for my turn my dad suddenly shows up, with my papers in his hand, n says he's goin home

. well i had to stay till 4 anyways...so the stupid chashier gave 1 hundred note n gave melike bunch of 5 notes!

(all the 5 notes totally summed up to 60 so u can imagine how many 5 notes i had) so i went bak upstairs n amelita the receipt n asked if she would like to take the change, she gave me a 50note, n suddenly my pocket felt much lighter...with the receipt, money, mp3 player, n mobile.
then from 2 to almost 4:20 i just loitered

on the floor sometimes flippin my phone out to play sodoku, i think most of the ppl must have thought i sendin n sms all the time (but i dunno how to >_<). alotta guys came maybe to discuss for their mocks or somethin, then i couldn't help but eavesdrop a lecture being given to 2 girls, both r gd friends n both their parents were lecturin

...well those 2 r hopeless but the words that were being used were quite amusing. then a few of my friends came n i went off with my friendly greetings

. as i was leavin i was givin another task to go upstairs n talk to the supervisor bout somethin (unimportant n irrelevent) so i went but she was talkin to a parent n i was waited n waited, wen the converstaion finally finished, n as i was bout to advance she called out to another teacher n started talkin in private...TO HELL WITH THIS!

i dun wanna miss my bus cuz of this stupid task thats not even related to me! so i left...n went to my bus (but turned out i had to go to a van)
as i listenin to the music n playin sodoku, i noticed that the clouds were gigantic n grey also known as cumulonimbus (clouds that bring showers of rain, learnt it in gr7 n still remember it :D) the chills brought by the winter were soothened by the hearty atmosphere of the teachers laughin n complainin) my chem teacher complained that she had been deceived by the authorities as someone told her that the open house was from 10am-5pm. n the truth brought to her by a student. the irony here is the fact that slavery done by students wasn't enough to satisfy them that they had to trick the new teachers. n today i learnt somethin shockin, that the bus driver knew my name but i dunno his

...well i never had the need to know...

n so here i m wonderin y i m bloggin bout this wen no one exactly is interested...

i can see y all my other friends who stayed bak last time didn't want to do it again, well i have learnt my lesson dunno bout hasangi though (this was her second experience)
