So a friend (let's call her Si) fighting with another friend (K) called K outside the classroom. Two minutes later, K came to the door and called me out. She had an ice cream in her hand. She told me to eat it. I called two other friends, and we all tried to finish it before Si came back again. I told them I couldn't eat much because I have a cold and cough too, and they just dumped the remainder of the ice cream in my hands and left. People I haven't been well for three weeks! Just because I fall sick lesser than you guys doesn't mean I'm perfectly healthy. They just told me to finish it off. And then a teacher was right outside, looking at me while she waited to get into the lift, and I had to finish it all up because it was melting 😤😤😤 And now I'm coughing so much. It's all of their faults!

Poor Alia is working so hard on the group, and I just can't wait to start.
Sorry Hals!
Oh, all members of Plutonium, could you please weigh in on the public, private, and secret thread I just posted? Thank you :)
(You can also request a character thread and start working on your characters if you like!)
It's fine, Alia! xD The fact that you're doing all of this alone is impressive enough. I can wait a bit longer :) *claps for Alia* Oh wait, I should be offering to help! Do you need help? xD *heads over to the thread*
Does it hurt?
Earlier in the Chemistry lab, my friend who is always worried about me being alone (A) signalled me along with another classmate. It took me time to process what they were saying, but it went along this path:
A's friend: Hallie, you did the sonometer experiment last Friday, didn't you?
Me: No, I didn't do that yet.
A: You tried it, though, right?
Me: Um yeah.
Both: And you hit your hand, didn't you?
My brain: How on earth did they know about that?!?!?!?!?
Me: *nods*
Both: *put on a sympathetic look*
A: Does it still hurt?
Me: Nope. It's gone.
How did they know that? Had they been around when I hit my thumb instead of rubber pad with the tuning fork????
Something else that I want to forget happened.
And my class got the pullovers. I didn't buy it, but now that I've seen it, I don't regret buying it. It's too big for most people and looks hideous! Thank goodness!
Also, one of my friends is acting weird, so it looks like after a while, I'll lose two friends who have been with me since the beginning. And there was the ice cream thing, I mentioned above.
Oh, and during the second free hour that we had today, the class prefect and her friend where doing something I didn't care to look at behind my seat, and I heard the prefect say my name. Five seconds later, "Hallie, can you take a picture of us?" Yay!!!!!!

Honestly, at this stage, I'm a bit of a control freak, but thank you for offering :) I'm going to redo the mod application thingy, so when the time comes (soon!) you're more than welcome to apply!
I can relate! Being a control freak is what I specialise in xD Alright! I just don't want you to be loaded with too much work.

The rp group I brainstormed. It's secret, but I sent you an invite unless something went wrong.
I've been swearing too much since when I woke up!
I hit my hand with the tuning fork again and again. Do they give marks for that act because those paper bits are way more obstinate than me? They simply refuse to vibrate! -_-And now I'm stuck doing the worst experiment we have for the year...
Oh my goodness! I just said "What the f-?" out loud!!!!!! I didn't complete the word (I caught myself and mentally slapped myself for that. Remind me to do that later when I'm done with this stupid experiment!)
I don't believe it!!! I can't believe it!!!
This isn't true! Probably spread by someone who has a grudge on her.
But why would anyone joke about such a thing?
This bad day just keeps getting worse!
I can't listen to anything right now except the whispers.
We need to go now. I'll explain everything that happened today later, but right now I just have to calm down mentally.
Too shocked to label
Please forgive me if this doesn't sound right.
First thing in the morning, I was late. The bus reached school late and we were two minutes late. They legit locked the gate right in front of our eyes. So I called mum to inform her about this, had a chat about subjects with a few friends (one of them thinks my future will be sitting and reading in the library forever xD), and was finally permitted to get to class after 15 minutes. Fortunately, the teacher in my class left the door open and let me in without a word. Besides, I had company. My head was hurting like hell, so that class went bad. So did the next one: Math. The teacher opened her mouth to tell us something about an ellipse and didn't shut her mouth forever. I didn't understand a word she was saying. Some focus, directrix, ellipse, x-axis, y-axis.....
Then I had Physics lab. Now that class made me want to transfer out of Physics that minute :/ We had to do two experiments, and both were annoying. One was the sonometer where I conveniently hit myself a couple of times, and the other was on surface tension. My partner was of no help whatsoever. I wanted to throw her into a cupboard and lock her in there forever. "Hallie, do fast! Hallie, others have already finished! Hallie, finish fast!" Patience, girl, patience! These two instruments are a big pain. The second experiment was so annoying I almost cursed. And thanks to that, I had to spend the whole of the lunch break in the lab trying to do that stupid thing! There goes lunch!
I ran to the next class which was Chemistry with my lab coat on. A couple of people who were in the lab with me had missed their lunch as well, so they asked my teacher whether they could go out and eat quickly. Initially, I decided to stay in, but my friends threatened to tell the teacher and literally pushed me out with my lunch. I sat outside with a couple of classmates and finished my lunch in ten minutes and came back. My teacher seemed kind of out of the mood. She is usually a really cheerful person, and today she wasn't that great. And she kept stammering while teaching.
She was going to take the next hour as well, so she let us off for a five minute break. Two of my friends went to the restroom and came back with an anxious look plastered on their faces. When we asked what happened, one of them said, "Ms. *insert our Physics teacher's name* passed away."
WHAT?!?!?!?!?
Okay, we do hate her and all and she kind of hates my friends and me, but still..... She is still our teacher. My friend apparently heard it from someone a year above us. Candidly, we found it so hard to believe that we thought it was a prank. We knew she was sick, but all of a sudden. She had come to the class on Tuesday and left as soon as she gave the prefect some notes for us.
Then the Chemistry teacher came back and resumed teaching. We observed her carefully: she looked like she was about to cry and kept making mistakes. The ones who heard my friend say this also couldn't concentrate on what she was saying. I tried, but I only listened to half of it. And finally this teacher stopped even before the class ended and said, "The rest we'll do in the next class." She had left us again in the middle, so by then the word had spread around to most people in the class. So we asked her, "What happened?" And she said, "Ms. *insert Physics teacher's name* passed away in the afternoon," and ran out of the classroom. She couldn't even finish the sentence. Some started to cry while other looked at each other in horror. And then there was me who didn't know how to express my reaction, so I just covered my face and sat there before an announcement came that we were all to assemble in the auditorium for a prayer service.
Outside the auditorium, there were people who don't know her at all were just giggling and joking around, and then there was my class who wanted to punch them all. This teacher is our class mentor and even though a lot of us don't like her, it's still sad. It was so..... I lack the vocabulary to describe that feeling that we had.
We really never gave her any value. We were just being selfish and never thought about her. Every Tuesday, when she had the last class of the day, we would trick her by saying that there were only five minutes for the bell when there were actually twenty. The last thing we told us on Tuesday was, "Why are you all making so much noise?" All that "So slow you all are" is just ringing in my ears. We just finished a prayer service, and she was 38!Her birthday was on Maya's birthday; I learnt that today!I just overheard that she had brain tumour.
Crap.
I don't know how to react. I feel sad, but not that emotional - like it's the death of a stranger. How typical of me! I'm not surprised; being cold-hearted is one of my dominant attributes.
And now I'm sitting in a bus with some lunatics obsessed with BTS -_- Seriously what do people see in the band??!? You don't have to scream and jump around in public over them!
*hugs Hallie*I'm sorry.
Thanks. (Is that what I'm supposed to say? I don't usually get condolences.)I don't know what's going to happen to my class.... My friends have cursed her and all, but we certainly didn't wish for this. She actually tried to handle us even with that illness, and we're just one annoying class.
They were saying may her soul rest in peace, and my friends and I were still not able to believe it.
