New School Year.... is it really that good?

I'm not sure.

Today I arrived at school and, sure enough, I am glad to be back at the top class. But then after I learnt who my teachers are going to be, it doesn't seem to be such a good thing to be.

The fact is, from the people I know, not many of them are happy with the arrangements. Weird enough, this year all grade 9 classes have male form teachers - first time I have ever known. Don't ask my why - maybe the school thinks that we are the worst amongst the school so they sent male teachers?

There was also a whole-school service this morning and we were greeted by the Headmaster strolling into the school hall, furious, calling out students who didn't bring their hymn books to leave the hall. Around a quarter of the school left the hall. I don't understand - it's the first day of school and not everyone has recovered (including me) - so why be so harsh? Even though not bringing the hymn book may be quite an offense, but after all it's the first day and every one deserves a happy beginning, right?

And new school year also gets me thinking about friendship and relationships. I'm not exactly sure about who my real friend is now, nor am I sure who I love right now. Life's complicated. I wish I could fix these soon so I could have an enjoyable school year.

But all I know for now is that it is going to be a tough year and a lot to overcome.
