Yes! I finally remembered to post.
Today alot of things happened. I don't know where to start.
Last week or 2 weeks ago, Wan Yee took the initiative to design and decorate the classroom. She bought materials with the class fund. And Huey Yan kept saying the designs were childish and blahblah. But alot of people helped out with the decoration. I did too, and loaned my glue and scotchtape and scissors and hands. LOL. Then there's this time, ( I wasn't there so what's here is hear-say) some students stayed back after school to continue the decor work. Huey Yan had wrote "Those who never did and never will say die." on the black paper that was pinned on the notice board at the back of the classroom for back ground without discussing with anyone. Which made some students annoyed. (For me, I would only be annoyed at the fact that where there's clouds and rainbows and ponds and a "warning-sign", suddenly appeared 2 lines of silver words.) Wai Kin and Harry had just said that the lines were not nice and 'bu yao ye suan le', but they didn't mean to insult, it's just their way of speaking.
Huey Yan took it seriously. She was upset that Wan Yee and the girls didn't speak up for her. [Bossy and Bitchy Symptom (B&B)] And the next day, she flipped the black paper so that the words weren't seen. (As in, the paper was turned over so that the back of the paper was used for the board.) And she told all her 'friends' and Yi Ying and me about howe Wan Yee didn't appreciate her work and what she did for the decor that Wan Yee didn't notice the words were gone. Wan Yee did actually, she just didn't say. I found it really ridiculous. Wan Yee was the one who took the initiative to decorate and Huey Yan expects her to appreciate her work? Then who is there to appreciate Wan Yee? And she was just helping the class, she didn't beg Huey Yan to help out. It wasn't WAN YEE'S JOB. Everyone was helping out. IT WAS A CLASS EFFORT. If you get my meaning.
And Huey Yan did a lot of mean things (too many, so I won't elaborate). She wanted to tear down the decor. BUT WTH. SHE DIDN'T DO EVERYTHING. AND IT WAS THE CLASS FUND'S MONEY SPENT. NOT HERS. EVERYONE'S. She didn't have the right to destroy it. Unless she was paying. And if she was that unhappy, she could design her own classroom la. But this is OUR CLASSROOM. It's not only hers. She should get everyone's agreement or mostly everyone's what. That's the first thing she did wrong anyway. And all the while, she has a really bad temper and keeps bossing people. I mostly avoided her.
She was really too much. Yi Ying and I couldn't stand it and told Wan Yee. She nearly broke down and cried due to anger. During last week's Home Econ, Wan Yee looked so emo and Leila asked what happened. Yi Ying said that 'someone near us' made her upset. Huey Yan heard that and was about to question her when the teacher started to teach us sewing. After that, I told Huey Yan that Wan Yee wasn't happy when she knew what Huey Yan did and might tell teacher. I thought that might help to solve the problem. I thought she would stop. But she didn't.
She said that if this incident got reported she would get away with it by denying because she didn't really call her name when she shouted 'BITCH'. (Wan Yee didn't notice anyway.) WTH.
And today was the last of it. Huey Yan realised Wan Yee knew everything. And she suspected Yi Ying of telling her everything. Mostly true. Except that I also did tell her. But I wasn't directly involved in the 'fight' nor much affected by it. She scolded Yi Ying. Even during lesson, she wouldn't stop pestering Yi Ying. Kicking her chair, (she sat behind Yi Ying, I sat beside Yi Ying) then leaning forward to whisper to Yi Ying. I felt that she might have made threats. I couldn't concentrate much. I had a terrible back pain and headache. And Huey Yan's threats made me quite angry. (I'm glad to say that I was less hot-tempered, cause I ren so long. Apparently if an outsider like me felt that it was already unacceptable it must have been worse for the others.) By the way, Yi Ying was bullied by Huey Yan before, thus she was quite agitated by this. During lunch, Yi Ying shouted at Huey Yan, saying that she deserved it. Huey Yan stalked us both, and demanded to know what she did wrong. DEMANDED was the word. She looked very threatening you know. Not that I was scared, but it made people more infuriated how she could look so 理直气壮. So I knew Yi Ying would cry. She did a few minutes after Huey Yan left to find the boys she 'did wrong to, too'. And Wan Yee had gone to find our form teacher,Miss Wong. After Si Tong, Cynthia and other girls tried to make Yi Ying calm, I rushed her to find Miss Wong. On the way, Huey Yan seemed to loom out of nowhere and gave Yi Ying that 'demon look' which made Yi Ying cry louder. Looking at this terrible situation, I shouted at Huey Yan, " ENOUGH ALREADY!" as loud as possible. I really wanted to vent my feelings and frustrations, and it would have made me happier if everyone looked at us, me, the supposedly submissive girl under Huey Yan's control(I bet Huey Yan felt that way, even though I was merely avoiding her), screaming at her. I bet it stunned her but I was too busy to look. And I really think I actually do enjoy scolding and shouting at people. :D
After we climbed up the staircase, a whole group of girls ran up behind us. They were going to find the teacher too. I was overwhelmed at that time. It's like a lot of people were supporting us. LOL. Some team spirit. I was proud of that. Huey Yan only stalked us later and followed us to the teacher. When I saw her face, it was like so bitchy. I was damn infuriated. And I'm not the type to like to use vulgar. It's stupid. The fact I used it really proves that it was appropiate. (That means, I only use vulgar if it's really that suitable. DO YOU GET IT? It's not whether I was infuriated enough or not, it was whether it was appropiate! I ever got angrier than that and I don't go using 'Bitch'.) Miss Wong told us to go back class while she speaks to Huey Yan.
My most nervous part was after that confrontation with the teacher, the teacher came down and Yi Ying made me tell Miss Wong about how Huey Yan would deny if they told the teacher. I was enough confused and exhausted already. Esp. with backache and headache. And while thinking about this, Miss Wong told me something. I think she said to not tell anyone about it. But already inside the classroom, everybody was talking about it, spreading rumours and swapping "Huey-Yan's-SCARY-and-HORRIFYING-stories. One of them included Huey Yan stealing a pen knife from Harry and attempting to stab him in the hand. Miss Wong brought Wan Yee and Yi Ying to meet Huey Yan. I suddenly thought of some court trial like the one in the book I read, Poison Ivy.
And the one who wasn't directly involved but had to tell the teacher about it was just sitting at her desk, confused. No one approached me. I was blur. So confusing sia. And it got me thinking like some Shakespeare tragedy. So serious. So emo. I decided to continue with my Artemis Fowl sketches. (Wink-wink. I can tell you that tomorrow.)
And they came back to the classroom like nothing happened. Just like before the class room decor thingy. The irony of teenagers. I thought they would be giving each other the cold shoulder for some time. And to think Yi Ying was so agitated just now.
And Huey Yan suddenly apologised to me. I was so shocked. I thought she was being sarcastic. I didn't know what to say. Maybe my shouting shocked her? And I didn't want to seem angry. I wasn't. I felt nothing. I only felt infuriated when my friends were bullied. But Wan Yee and Yi Ying were totally 'goodies' with her(as in like normal friends again), so why would I be angry at her? I only hope she won't do it again. I felt... nothing. So I told her that she didn't have to apologise cause I felt nothing. I knew I was having that 'emo' look or poker-face. I hope she wouldn't get the wrong idea that I was being upset with her. And I was expecting her to be sarcastic and say 'Thanks for telling the teacher' or something like that. She didn't but I still felt uneasy. Maybe she still had some resentment in her heart.
ARTEMIS FOWL ROCKS.
