My voice

Now my role in THIS post is just a student voicing out what he thinks.

I think that each candidate has their own abilities and uniqueness.

For example:

Lim Ben-Jie: He excels in the skills of communication and resources. Can stay friendly with the students while get things done.

Edbert Chia: He never overdone ANYTHING asked by the teachers. He just does what he’s asked for. This is what I will call a typical Prefect.

Shubashini: A strict Prefect which is a very good asset in controlling the discipline of the students. She also plays an important role in controlling the Indians.

Yap Yow Chun: He’s part Edbert and Ben-Jie himself. He doesn’t overdone things and also quite friendly with the students while get things done.

Lee Chin Yung: Famous in leadership and planning. He’s active in co-curriculum (maybe a bit TOO active) and good in studies as well. This is what I will call an ALMOST perfect student.

Nur Shahida: She plays an important role in controlling the Malays since IF I’m not mistaken; the Malays are sometime reluctant to listen to the Prefects.

Now with Ben-Jie as the Head Prefect, I think the school authority has a new definition for Prefects. Since I’ve said that Mr. Lim is excel in communication skills, I think the school authority thinks that Prefects are not supposedly be hated by the students.

With the new ‘visi’ in the Principal’s mind, to become a ‘sekolah kluster’, I THINK she thinks that the school is OK with the student’s discipline for our school is famous for the strictness in students discipline. She wishes that the students can be closer or what Edbert will say to have a closer bonding with the students. So in future, Prefects and students can cooperate more effectively.

With a higher cooperation between the students and the Prefects, our school can reach the ‘visi’ more quickly. Therefore, I think they choose Ben-Jie with a hope that he will help them in their effort to do it.

If anyone who is not too thick to realize, you will find that Lim Ben-Jie, Nur Shahida and Yap Yow Chun are Prefects who are better in communication skills comparing to other prefects. Lim Ben-Jie and Yap Yow Chun are already commented on the top the post about their communication skills.

Shahida is a VERY-VERY important person if the statement above IS the school’s plan. She’s the ‘bridge’ between the Malay student communities with the school authorities

I say something like that is just simply because that she is capable of speaking fluent Chinese, Malay and English. She is Malay, which make her job easier to be done among the Malay community, and she’s a Prefect which ‘links’ the Malay community with the school authority.

So, I think that this batch of Prefects which emphasis in communication skills will a make HUGE difference in the history of Prefectorial Board and SMKTC.

Comments and Opinions from the Public

I’ve done a few ‘interviews’ among the pupil and this is how they answer.

Question asked: What do you think about the new batch of Prefects leaded by Ben-Jie?

“I believe that this new batch of Prefects can make a different in the school…”

“I’m quite OK with Ben-Jie on the top. Don’t be always Chin-Yung in everything. Other people might be better than him…”

“I voted for Chin-Yung during the election because I believe that he can cope with the work because he has past experience BUT SINCE Ben-Jie is the one, I’ve also no problem with that…”

“I voted for Ben-Jie because Chin-Yung held to many post! Or else I’ve voted for him because he’s an ex-Head Prefect once…”

“I’m quite glad that Ben-Jie made it to the top. He’s such a friendly person…”

PS:
These comments & Opinions are NOT my creation or imagination!
It’s what the pupil said!
Most of the comments DID come back with the name Chin Yung & Ben-Jie in it!
My role in THIS post is just a ‘war journalist/reporter’!

Julius Caesar Ep.4

Things are getting murkier and complicated. Mr. Caesar’s mind is working in a new and deeper way. A way that’s uncommon towards him.

His plans no one can know for certain. But, I THINK I can get the general picture.

His plan (IF I’m not wrong) is to oppose the new batch of Power face-to-face. Due to certain past event which I can’t reveal, he is NOT afraid to do ANYTHING now as long as he reaches his Goal.

If I’m not mistaken (again), he once said that means (from the translation of his words) that under the new batch of Power, the school can’t reach a whole new level. He believes Mr. Casca can do the job better (read Ep. 3).

Logically, his Goal is to make a Change a.k.a. Metamorphosis in the school.

Finally, his ‘warning’ now to the new Power is either he brings us all down (which he, himself will bring havoc to school if that is done) or he unites us all together (which I believe is hard).

Our colourful class

We are asked by Pn. Shanthi and Pn. Chan to win the class deco. competition for the title Bahasa Jiwa Bangsa.

We are not that enthusiastic in winning this competition in the beginning until our class teacher; Pn. Chan says that winning this competition can increase our chance in winning the Class of The Year competition which our class is only few marks behind 5S2.

Pn. Shanthi in other hand, wants us to win the competition because our class is thought by her and she is one of the teachers who are in charge of the Keceriaan Sekolah sort of thing.

Of course, with the exams in our bag, we decided not to take actions until we finished the exams. It’s also counted as a plan not to put up anything just in case our rivals excel us and our decorations got ‘demolished’, ‘destroyed’ and ‘disintegrated’ by the afternoon sessions.

Just like I expected in the beginning of the year, we, 4S2 are quite unique. We will not pull together until the very breaking point. Almost like the event of Carnival Day, only this time we planned everything in the beginning but ‘construction’ will only begin in the very end.

Luckily, we manage to pull it off. Unfortunately, the Judges we expect to appear did not do so. Looking on the bright side, I think we are the only class who do this and the deco.s are still up. XD

As a ‘dessert’, our class got a one-sided love case and the ‘main character’ is someone unexpected. Make a vote on who do you think is the person!

Julius Caesar Ep. 3

Before the revealing of the Result, I’ve asked Mr. Caesar himself that what he expect from the future leader? Below is a short, minor-ly EDITED dialog between me and Mr. Caesar.

“So, Mr. Caesar, who do you want to be the Head Prefect?”

“I prefer Casca to be the Connaughtians future Head Prefect because in my opinion, not all of them can cope with the work of the Head Prefect as well as him.”

“OK, let’s say IF someone made it and the person is not Mr. Casca. What will be your future plan?”

“I’ll still do my work as long as they DO NOT interfere with the things which they give the responsibility to me. If they do, I make sure they’ll suffer for their actions.”

“I see. Thanks for the comments”

In another word, Julius Caesar will obey to no one except Mr. Casca himself. Spicy temper isn't it.

For reader’s information (if you do care), there are parts of the conversation which are hidden from public’s knowledge. Without Mr. Caesar’s permission, I cannot reveal those parts.

A New Dawn has arrived…

After a long time of waiting, the Connaughtians has finally knows who are leading the school to a new level.

I was informed by the prefects (actually I asked them myself) that they will have a meeting after school which they will announce the Result. Of course, curious as new born pup, I started bombarding every single prefect I saw. Some of them did not know because they are not one of the, what we call the AJKTs. The one who knows refuse to open their Golden Mouth.

‘Sheesh~ I have ways to know things myself,’ I thought.

At last after all the questioning, one of them said that we Drama team rocks. I was like ‘OK~, I think I know who it is…’ No offence but Edbert if you are reading this, you are not the first person that came across my mind. So there is only Lim Ben Jie left.

So my so-called-calculation came into being… Ben Jie IS the new Head Prefect. Deputies Head Prefect are followed by Nur Shahida and Yap Yow Chun (a.k.a. MU fan by the Form 5s).

Sadly for the ex-Head Prefect (during Form 2), Joseph Lee Chin Yung, he did not get what he craved (I think). Sorry man…

But of so many news I receive today, the happiest part is still Yap Yow Chun had make it to the Deputies! Just like what Pn. Chan said, let the others have a chance, they also can make a difference.

Once again, congratulations to the new batch of Prefects who will be leading the school!

The Time Draws Near

By next Monday, the name of new Head Prefect will be announced.
By next Monday, the new Head Prefect will gain full authority over the other Prefects.
By next Monday, a new batch of leaders will rise and lead the school.

Would they make a change? Or they will keep things as they are now…
