Teachers ALERT!!!
I admit I havent been reading the papers lately but some news articles caught my eye recently. I think you know which I'm talking about. Pretty sure the title of this entry gave it away.
Teachers reading our blogs and finding the contents insulting... that's it! I am guilty of posting horrible stuff about my secondary school teachers in my previous blog. My poly lecturer? I had one entry... just one on this particular one I didnt really fancy. I wasn't the only one, my friends didn't like that lecturer either.
I didn't post horrible mean things about them that are not true. I merely spoke the truth. I don't have the intentions of ruining their reputations or wreaking havoc in their life. I type exactly what I think is wrong with them. I don't see anything wrong with that.
What do teachers expect to read when they read our blogs anyway? Sugar and spice and everything nice? Puuuuh-leeeeeeese! Go get a life. Blogs are where we vent our frustrations, where we type about our day to day lives.
Funny isn't it? They don't seem to say anything when we write nice stuff about them... no better grades, no words of praises in class. The moment they do something we deem horrible in class and we post it in our blogs suddenly they're all over. Public caning, suspension, fines?!
Teachers and lecturers humiliate us in class and when we come online and write about them they claim we are spoiling their reputation.
If you don't want us to spoil your "reputation", why don't you think about your actions when you are teaching us. Is cursing a student in front of the whole class good? Is smashing a pail to bits in front of an entire corridor good? How about stereotyping us? Calling us animals? Teachers... please do some reflection.
Do you really think we would call you names and write about the horrible things you do to us if you didn't do it in the first place? Would we call you a beast if you didn't smash that pail to show anger when you were scolding us. Would we say you were unfair if you didn't take the matric card from the boy just because he blurted a word which means "Damn!" in Bahasa Indonesia? It's not even a badword. The word is in the Malay Dictionary. To confiscate a matric card cause the student was caught stealing is one thing. To confiscate it because the student said such a word? L-A-M-E!!! Just shows how childish some teachers can get. Reflect teachers... reflect.
Oh..... and get a life too! Don't spend your time reading students' blogs. Don't you have things to do? Assignments to grade, papers to mark, classes to teach?
I didn't spoil any teacher's reputation in this entry did I? Hope not. I didn't state names. =P Those incidents mentioned above are real life accounts though. I want comments on this ya?

isn't it lame... like... what control do teacher's have over the internet... if we blog in school perhaps they can suspend us... but hell... not when we aren't in school... teacher's are so petty now a days... what ever happen to the sticks and stone may break my bones but words never will...

teachers are plain abusers of authority! They FUCKING won't leave us alone!
They're alowed to call us names and scold us while we listen quietly bgehind our desks. We used to think that we can blog about tt particular teacher when we get back. Now that too is impossible.... sighz
