Say. Bad things.
A quote of Edward, "Sometimes I have problems with my temper, Bella". I do too. Studying in an international school, people come from different places and cultures, so we do not really know each other. Of course, there would be some misunderstandings, but those made me angry.
The first one..however, is not really about misunderstandings. I was learning about religions in my World Civilizations class and I was assigned to research about Islam with my group. There was a guy, he was a stereotype. He said, "Once Islam, always Islam." What he really meant was about the terrorist 911 thing. That made me angry. It was insulting to me. Ok, I'm not a Muslim, but I come from an Islamic country, so his comment was like insulting me! Other than that, he was very rude at the same time. If the religion that he insulted was another religion, it was rude too. SO RUDE AND STEREOTYPE. So, I did something that I normally don't do. I told my WCiv teacher that he was being very rude. I was a tell-tale-tit at that moment. I didn't want to do that, but I was really angry.
The second one was...about 光良.What about him? So..the grade 9 Chinese class is going to perform 童话. I told my friend that 光良 is Malaysian. Guess what my friend (let's call him P) replied to me? "No, he's taiwanese." I swear, I was in rage. Then, just to add some more oil to the fire(火上加油), the friend who was sitting beside me(call him J), who is a taiwanese, said that 光良 is taiwanese too. SHUT UP!! Where did they get the information that 光良 is taiwanese?! That is a LIE. GOD! J then said, "If you trace the blood, he's taiwanese." Freaking no! If I trace the blood, 光良 would be from CHINA!!! >.<
Thirdly..is WCiv class again. This time, I was learning about forms of government. We were learning 3 forms, democratic(民主),republic(共和国) and authoritarianism(独裁主义). The class was divided into these three groups to research for information. Then, one person from each group were to share the information. This is where the part I dislike. The girl from the authoritatianism was saying examples of countries, and she said, "China, Singapore, North Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia." NO!!!!! That was SO stupid. Taiwan's new president was just elected last year and Malaysians get to vote when we are 21. WRONG information from the INTERNET. Whoever wrote that is...hmph. I don't like it at all. >.<>.<
p/s: pictures that I post are sometimes random. They have nothing to do with the post. I just want to share them.
