We had the Annual Awards Ceremony rehearsal today at 4pm. It was rather chaotic. I found at the very last minute that the PA supplier was not employed to supply the sound system for the concert in the concourse for today's rehearsal. How then can you call it a REHEARSAL when you don't even have the most important item? I mean, the PA system was the main reason why we needed to rehearse today....*sigh*...I'm so tired of this crap in school. Somebody somewhere not directly involved with the item making the decision without knowing what is really required and what the problems are. And worse, making the decision known only in the very last minute so that the people directly involved have got no way of making other arrangements. This place is like this. Decisions are made by people "up there" who are not aware of what's really happening "down here".

To top it off, I had to discover for myself that I had 4 students who did not have a band coat to wear for our performance this Saturday. They did not even have the decency to inform me. How irresponsible! I was SO mad because they really gave me a BIG headache. It was unimaginable. I scolded the whole group and my blood really boiled when one of the 4 students was distracted as I was lecturing them. I really raised my voice this time and I could feel the blood rushing to my head. I nearly exploded. I had to walk off to cool down.

So yeah, I had a super day, minus the events above, which make up about 70% of today.

*aching feet*
