i have to blog about this before i sleep. seriously, if i dun get this off my mind, ill not be able to sleep well. ok, i want to rant about my school. its a sucky school now that i think of it. it sucks!! through and through!!!
1) we have compulsory yoga. yes i know about the benefits of yoga and all. i am constantly reminded of it everytime i pass by the yoga notice board. "100 years old and still going strong" in which there is an old woman doing a yoga feat. the principal said that they have modified the steps until it is far from being religious. i guess alot of christians have been coming up to him and saying that they don't wan to do yoga because they are christians. so i guess this partly explains the reason why he went on to say about all kinds of anti-christ things, even after he told us not to ask him anything regarding religous matters (we are in a principle dialogue session). "if the only way to go to heaven is through one way only, den i would rather go to hell" "im a christian but i dun go to church!" "those caucasians go all the way to china to learn gong fu from the shaolin temple!" "if there is only one god as every religion says, then which is the true god? christ, the mother of christ or (sth i can't rmb) really! this is really what my principal said! ok, the reason im NOT going to do yoga is because of the origins. its devised by hindi monks. ok im not being anti-watever-religion here or being racist, its just that i can't bring myself to do it. and its not the reason the principal said too. "u mean u do this action (clasps his palms together and hold them above his head) means u're worshipping a god?"lol, its just that yoga originates from a hinhu philosophy, focusing on meditation as a path to self-knowledge and liberation. (wikipedia) yes he said that they have modified it, but still! its the origins, the ORIGINS!! now, i noe that by doing yoga, i would not be converted to hinduism and instead, it will do a lot for my health. but den, i dun wan to be unfaithful to the one whom i serve and whom i regard as my only god. my fren says," i think u all christians the perception is wrong" but i dun care, if i have to run 10 runs alone on the track while everyone else is doing yoga, let it be. heck, if i perish, i perish (what esther said!) i noe that i will be branded as a freak, a weirdo or watever names ppl can come up with, the thing is that i dun care! wat i care about is the favour of god, not the favour of others. god himself sent his son to die for me. he gave me his life. why wouldn't i dare to bear with ridicule for his sake? i will do just that, i wun have any regrets, ever. (sounds cliche BUT dat's wat i really feel)
2) students not taking chi will have to take chinese cultural studies at my school. and they force us to take a programme, which i went against at first. i went to find the head of languages and told her that i dun wan to take it becausei dun wan to listen to someone talking about feng shui or sheng chen ba zi. den she went on to talk fer 15 mins!!!!! (yes i have a watch) about wat this is just general knowledge! we're not asking u to convert, in the future these things will help u, instead of being a student with only academic knowledge, u will be equipped with the knowledge of china, which is rising up right now as the next big dynasty! if u insist on not taking den i really feel sorry for our students (undertone: we christians should not be too fussy abt everything, we should broaden our view and not just be a frog in a well) worse, she said that there will only be a small part about feng shui this kind of thing. and wat do i see, hear and touch at my first lesson? feng shui, fortune telling and more superstitious things. "using the tong shu, u can check against the dates and time of occurance when ur eyelid twitches and so u can noe what is going to happen to u." later on, the late comers have to go up to the front of the lt to get the feng shui books (they are colourfully published and there is even an eng version, no doubt they wan to try and win our hearts, their hearts yes, my heart no) i went up and i picked the book up. i flipped it open and what i saw reeeaaaallllyy puts me off. if im not in front of so many ppl, i definitely would have shouted, yes shouted, "what the heck is this???!!!!" honestly, u cannot believe what they write. 'where to place the stove in the kitchen.' obviously, i cannot shout. so i put the book down and walked off. den one of the two teachers-in-charge (she knew im a christian) said," miaozhen!" with a reprimanding tone. i just told her wo mei you xing qu. really! i noe that i sound and look as if i have attitude but i really cannot help myself. under that kind of circumstances i just said what i wanted to say. sometimes being too direct is a taboo. but i dun care. so what if the teacher take offense at me? she can't do anything. im not being rude to her, in fact im being honest with her! also, it is definitely not a wrongdoing by not taking the books. i dun wan to take, no one at all can force me, the end, period. but now i regret my decision. i should have just taken the eng version of the book and look thru it and laugh out loud at the contents and most importantly, post those really hilarious ones on my blog. im sure some ppl would want to laugh along too. and now, im not insulting any religions here. "feng shui is not religious at all! its general knowledge!" now, u can't blame me for laughing at general knowledge now, can u? (im going to borrow the book from someone in my class haha. she thinks its crap too, btw) oh and did i mention that i have to pay a freaking $84?????????????? my edusave account is left with $2 only lol. $84!!!!! my parents' hard-earned $$$!!! heartbreak!!! argh!!! nvm, god will provide. oh, this reminds me of sth my pastor said today. "who by worrying can have an hour added to his life" exactly. watever financial needs, god will supply. yeah. isn't god a wonderful god? (*chorus: yeeeeesssssssssssss!!!)
ok, its 145 am now and its mon. great. gonna need my sleep. till here, until next time... bwahahahahahaha............................... zzzzzzz.....
