So our class has been moved down to the second floor to make way for the IB students. Why move us? Why not just shift them down there and leave us alone? It's not that i'm complaining or anything, but then i've noticed that the IB students get a lot of privileges compared to us. Its not like they're paying more, because the amount we're paying is about the same. Like during assemblies they get to sit on chairs while we have to sit on the floor. Their classes have nice new Panasonic projectors that cost like 6k and they even get speakers! Why is it that the school gives them speakers and and we dont get any? We need them too! We also have presentations to do and movies to watch, and its not like they're expensive, their just cheap, sucky entry level speakers that cost around rm100. So why are we being moved to some old, dusty classroom that used to be mr yow's staffroom? Some ppl say its because poor old mr jonathan craw cant walk that far, but i think thats unlikely to be the case. I'm not blaming the IB students for this because its the school that makes all these decisions. I just think that they should give us equal treatment...at least get some speakers installed in our classes too! xD

On a lighter note, today a bunch of us went to Zoo Negara as volunteers to help do some cleaning up. Most of us were from the Nature Society but there also others who participated. We were divided into mostly groups of 5 when we got there, but my group had 7: Chien Wen, Nabil, Jon, Leon, Aleena, Melissa and myself. Nabil wanted tigers, so we got to clean up the tiger's enclosure! What we did was mostly sweeping up dead leaves and packing them in bags. Then someone showed us the lions, male and female, as well as two cubs. When told they were 7 months old we pictured cubs the size of cats but they turned out to be 5-feet giants! We also got to see a tiger which was really tame, compared to the lions that acted like as though they wanted to eat us...here are some pix:
