Treat.

i've definitely met the sharpest and most sarcastic teacher today. one true singaporean who spoke with a convincing british accent and made constant remarks about our standard of english(or our level of intelligence, maybe?). insults, some might say. the subject was "Organisational Communication". or simply, "English".

his ground rules consisted of how we should never patronise him, not play smart with him and NEVER, EVER, call him by his name. "i'm your teacher and i'll get the respect i need. it's either "Sir", or "MR ______". call me by my name and you'll get hell from me." he's real nice. really. "i'm not your father, i'm not your mother, so if you want to throw tantrums, i'll make sure you wont be able to do it here."

he seemed to be able to catch the tiniest bit of sarcasm that anyone made(stuffs that are usually oblivious to other teachers) and even retorted with his own sarcasms. later on, we also found out that he's not one to take revenge. "i dont take revenge. i get even."

aw, such a sweet man.

so as i said, he had a way of insulting our level of intelligence and everytime after he made a remark, he'd give that cocky grin. he also assumed that we're people who do not watch shows on channel 5 because it was just too hard to understand the shows. when he found out we did, he assumed(once again) that it was shows like "PCK" and "My Sassy Neighbour" that we usually view.

awwww. i would like to laugh now.

for starters, I DO WATCH channel 5, even though i would very much prefer Starworld, thankyouverymuch. and now that we're actually ON that topic, "My Sassy Neighbour" turns me off. i just told my mom yesterday that i couldnt understand why they'd want to get actors who cant speak english properly to star in an all-english series. and right now, i still dont.

that aside, he did make use of his sarcastic nature to make sarcastic jokes for entertainment. he's even showed us a new way of "reading between the lines". cough. there's something about him, though. just that little something there that i feel is kind of going to help us somewhere. it's hard to explain right now. just kind of like how he wants us to hate him on purpose. hmmm. i dont know.

i know I'M sarcastic, but wait til you see this guy. it's only the first lesson so i'll see in time to come. this is kind of interesting. hm. i still didnt appreciate certain sarcasms made though. we'll see.

ok one more thing. i lowered a hand-drawn paper pumpkin with the words "trick or treat" out my bedroom window to anna's just now and i pulled up a bag of treats! yum. oh yes. we were supposed to dress all black today but i went in orange instead. you see, i was the pumpkin. heh.

happy halloween!
