Random Thoughts 3.1 - content edited
As of blogtime, it’s already 1:30 am, but I am still here, typing the exam. I couldn’t seem to sleep and I am making the best out of my Christmas vacation. We are expected to go back to school on January 8, and contrary to what we have thought - that is, if we go to school, our sick leave and vacation leave will not be deducted - the administration has said that we are in a forced leave. Yup… as in nobody should go to school because… well, the administration says so. It’s really annoying because come to think of it, they should not charge our Christmas vacation entirely to our future (oh yeah - read - FUTURE, because we new teachers do not have a leave yet) SL/VL. There’s something really wrong going on in A________’s administration. Come to think of this, I should not be the one who should complain, because I’ve only been in school for quite sometime (half a year, I presume) and I have yet to know what other "inside jobs" does the school have for us - both mere employees and students alike. But I tell you, staying in this school makes me think of the bad… no… worst things that men of good educational background can ever think about… This school actually makes me think of the high school that I have been in - in JA (of course, name witheld, for security purposes). It is just really ironic that a school has come up with such vile mechanisms which are really malevolent for its employees (including moi) and its customers (my students).
Believe me, I am not one who would start this upheaval of the masses. It has long started since time memorial, ever since most of the teachers have been employed in that school. The administration lacks tact, consideration, and probably most of all, as what those Promil ads have advocated, EQ or emotional quotient. It just pains me because we are stuck in an ironic world. It just pains me that an institution meant to shape both the minds and hearts of its kids are not even equipped with a mind and heart of their own. The school is a home for such puerile personal concerns of the administration in which the masses, even though they use their voice to air their grievances, cannot do anything about. I know that this is the case not only in the institution that I am working for, but as well as to others, to numerous establishments, factories, small time businesses and the likes… I guess that life is supposed to be like this. Karl Marx was indeed right. The only thing that the masses can do against the bourgeois is to revolt. Too bad that we only have a few brave souls to do that…
It’s already 2am, but my mind is still as alive as ever…Perhaps some moron is thinking about me, plotting to assasinate me, perhaps? hehe. A natural John Lennon.
