If you have read my previous post, the one about my teacher pinching me, that’ll be good. If not, go read it.
I realised that my principal, can’t really speak English. No kidding people. I spoke to her in English and she replied in Malay Language. And it was totally irrelevant to what I said. Haha. I’m so mean to post about her “dirty little secret” on my blog. I always thought that all principals can speak English but I guess I was wrong. She let me down.
Anyways, I went to the office to see her today to tell her about the pinching thingy and here’s what she said that I felt is kinda weird. I’m gonna translate it to English. It's not word for word, but that what she said.
“It’s normal for a teacher to pinch a student until it leaves a mark. Sometimes, even I accidentally pinch my student too hard until it leaves a mark. But I did it out of the love for my students. And I believe that Puan Suryani did it because she loves you all. Even as a mother, I sometimes pinch my kids until it leaves a mark because I love them”, my principal ‘quoted’.
Then I showed my principal my bruise, then she said “Tak nampak lah. Mana ada?” (means can’t see. where’s it?) I was wondering of she was blind or…well…yeah…blind.
Just to let you know, my mum has NEVER pinched me. The most was that she chasing me with a cane…and me, trying to snatch it until one day I was locked outside the house. And mind you, that was back then, when I was 5 or so. My mum has not pinched, caned, hit, slap or did anything to me that left a mark since I entered Primary school (thank goodness!).
So, who is she to pinch me? Who is she to pinch me until it left a mark? If teachers could pinch students, why can't students pinch teachers? So what if I am her student, she was given no lisence to "abuse" her students in any way...not even emotionally.
I told mummy today, and she was mad! (surprisingly!) I didn’t expect that reaction from her though. She was mad…like really mad. She said I should’ve called her as soon as she pinched me. Damn it, I didn’t.

Latest news,
MY CAMERA IS SPOILT!
I feel like crying. :(
I accidentally kinda dropped it that day,
And now, I can’t use it…cause the screen thingy cracked.
:(
I’m gonna go check if I could use the 5-year warranty thingy.
This means…NO PICTURES ON MY BLOG FOR A PERIOD OF TIME.
BUT
I think I could persuade mummy to lend me her’s.
I think this camera-spoilt-incident is gonna affect some of my duties.
e.g. taking pictures for the editorial board.
I’m think I better find an alternative…soon.
P.S : Except the principal thing, I am really happy today…everything was great, somehow. Loves…
…I think I know where you belong,
I think I know it's with me…
