I had a very bad day at school...
But then we had the most delicious pizza for lunch and then all was well!
I am going to write about my very bad day at school.
Yesterday, school was not just boring but it was really bad!
It is almost the end of Year 3 so my teachers at school are not wanting to work (they are probably already dreaming of their holidays!) and so we don’t get homework or anything anymore, but the worst thing is that it is either no work during lessons or they just slam us with impossible, hard Chinese pronounciation and spelling stuff that we don’t really need to learn whenever someone speaks up and says ‘Teacher, can we do something more challenging?’ Then they ask us to work so fast that our hands ache so bad, but they don’t care. So no one says anything now…
The only thing I look forward to in school right now is break time. During break time, I sit with my friend Para1 in the canteen, but the night before we found out she got Covid(!) so she won’t be coming to school for a while.
So yesterday, Para wasn’t there, and most of the time, it is Para, me and Jasmine, so I went to look for Jasmine to sit with, but she was already sitting with Aliya. When I approached them, they looked away and ignored me, and I saw that they didn’t save me a seat either, and I was hungry, so I left them to look for somewhere to eat my food. I looked everywhere, but the only space left was a bench that is usually occupied by these bully girls in Year 5. They always make fun of how I look, I told my mama about them, she told me to ignore them unless they start to touch me or hurt me on my body, but they haven’t done anything like that. They just make comments and laugh and laugh. It hurts my feelings, but my mama says she can’t even say anything to the teachers because kids do that all the time. Some kids are so cruel and unkind. I wish I could just live somewhere where everyone is just kind to everyone.
Anyway, back to what happened next.
The food that my mama put in my lunchbox, was delicious2 but I had no time to enjoy it because I had to eat fast because I knew the moment the bullies see me sitting on their bench, they will start to pick on me, and I couldn’t take more bad things happening to me anymore.
So I hurried to the waiting room to wait for the break-time-is-finished-bell to ring! I then realised it was still early, there is still 20 more minutes left on the clock before we have to go back to class.
So I just sat there, and felt the loneliness. No one even came up to me to ask me to join them. Everyone around me were playing little games in their own groups but I didn’t have a group, I didn’t have anyone, and so I cried. I don’t think anyone saw me. I don’t think anyone noticed me crying because no one came up to ask if I was okay.
I was very upset. I am so sure I won’t be friends with Jasmine anymore!
When school ended, I told my mama all about it. She said she was sorry that happened, but it won’t be a bad day the whole day. She took us (me and my sister) out for lunch and I had the most yummiest cheese pizza and fried chicken and fries and Milo and I felt a lot better afterwards!
Para is my bestest friend in the whole wide world!
By the way, the delicious food was French Toast!
