Flotsam & Jetsam

I just realised I have a craving for banana-flavoured food. I love Gardenia Banana walnut bread, banana cake from Bengawan Solo and Chunky Monkey from Bens and Jerry. However, the weird thing is that I do not really like the real fruit very well.

Anyway, I am sorry for not blogging according to the schedule allocated. I am not used to embracing school once again after the 2 week break and there was an mini incident that happened in school that kind of dampen my mood for days.

I was caught talking to my friend during a tutorial quiz on Tuesday and the teacher got my organs displaced when she snatched my question paper away from me and my friends. Seriously, all my friends including me was traumatised.

After that incident, I felt so guilty and ashamed of myself. I was reproaching myself for making such a foolish move and feared praying to God. The guilt was like a knot in my chest and the incident kept replaying in my mind till my mind became very restless. My every unoccupied moment is filled with the incident.

On Thursday, me and friends decided to seek the teacher to offer her an apology and explain to her that we had no intension of cheating. The teacher was genuinely nice about the incident thankfully. She said she had to give me and my other friend a zero because she did saw us talking and had to assume we are cheating. My other friend was dragged into it because she was sitting beside us.

It kind of multipled my guilt because I was the first one who opened my itchy mouth. However, I merely wanted to explain the question to my friend because the it was phrased in a way which was hard to decipher. Whatever the case, I am relieved that things ended on a good note because the teacher said that she would not mention the incident again and that all of us should move on from it.

Next time if there is a quiz, I will just keep my mouth shut. To save others and of course save myself. A hard way to learn a lesson indeed.

PS: Happy Birthday Mummy!
