End of

the first day... and guess what?

I have a hefty announcement to make.

Somehow, someway, i feel like i am going to hate year 2.

My class is too noisy. i hate it.. i hope that it's only because i don't know them well enough yet. But so far, there really is nothing to like. While people will argue that noisy is good, especially on the first day, and i do agree, dont get me wrong, but there should be a limit to the noise.

If things are said to break the ice or dissolve the tension, then sure. If sexism remarks or really dumb jokes are made, then it crosses the line for me. I recommended that the class call me Jim, or Jimmy, because for some reason, alot of people struggle with my name. But for some strange reason, i am starting to regret that decision and really strongly wish that i had not done so. Because they obviously dont need me to simplify my name for them, because they'd just settle with "razer boy".

Now, i know, they're not the first people to call me razer boy... i was razer boy in year 1 sem 1 and 2 too, but not to this extreme. At the most, only 1 or 2 would call me so sparingly. Here, when i stood up to present, a huge chorus of Razer Boy! greeted me.

I tried.

I tried using the new me, the friendlier me to talk to these guys, but it didn't work, so i swapped back to the old quiet me, to see if maybe i could lure the quieter people out like in sec sch, but that didn't work either. The majority of the class are filled with males whose mind only think about girls. i'll give you an example.

Kai tien and i were in the same group today, and the moment we took our seats, one of the guy whom we totally did not know yet asked her blatantly if she was attached! i mean, c'mon. i thought questions like these had to be handled with style...

As for the girls in the class (i'm excluding siti and kai tien from this group cuz i already know them from sem 1 last year and they're AWESOME people), they are generally nice people from the few i know, but really... not my style? yeah...

Looks like the Curse of Singlehood remains for 6 more months.



I genuinely hope that i can accept the class soon, most of them are nice people, but some of them are really quite infuriating thus far...
