This morning, I met up with Sabrina and Pok Yen outside Pasir Ris Secondary School, hoping to visit the teachers. However, we are stopped by the security guards, saying that no visitors are allowed unless for official business, as instructed by the DM!!! Moreover, the guard said that we WERE the students from this school, now we are not and we do not belong to the school anymore!!! So does that mean if we immigrate to another country and we are not allowed to Singapore anymore??? Ridiculous!!! The attitude of the security guard is really sickening, I really feel like punching him right on the face!!!
Pok Yen tried to call Mrs Chua to confirm with the facts, and the truth is the school is quite busy right now, and she heard that the rule was set just 2 days ago. Then I realised the school has just finished conducting their exams and maybe they didn't want us to disturb teachers marking and tabulating the marks. If the instructions were passed down to the guards in this manner, we will still try to understand. But just give some bloody hell attitude to chase us away. Hope that DM still know what he is doing the school!!!
Mrs Chua then told us next time we are required to arrange with the teachers we wanted to meet before hand. Personally, I thought it defeats the purpose because visiting teachers without informing them would not be a surprise. And we could even just call up to chat, why even bother to come up personally to the school to look for them???
It was raining heavily at that time... We just have to wait the rainfall to become smaller before we moved on back to TPJC. Finally, we got back TPJC and security guards there glady let us in as we said we are back to help with the College Day. Haha. We had our lunch there, and Mrs Foong saw us again, saying that we are really free. Not only her, other teachers we have seen on Monday all referred us as "Really Free". We happened to meet the TPJC teacher counsellor, who also known as the ex-teacher from PRSS, Mrs Tan, and Pok Yen told her everything that had happened this morning. Hope that every teacher in PRSS would know what happened to us.
3 of us spent our time loitering around the whole campus, literally. But we realised the school was expectionally quiet for a Wednesday afternoon, and especially when the College Day is happening on this Saturday, there will be surely a rehearsal going on. True enough, quite a lot of people already gathered a the auditorium for rehearsal. Then, Pok Yen is going to help out with his Drama, while Sabrina and me head home first.
