NOT FAIR!!!


I am not sure about you but for me, I find that when the prediction for my personal horoscope says that I would get a windfall or meet a romantic interest, no such thing would happen. But when it says that I might get robbed, become ill or meet with an accident the predictions come true. It really is not fair. Don't you agree?

Each year, I would buy my personal horoscope book written by Lilian Too and refer to it monthly. Well, from March 6th until April 4th, it is stated this was a quarrelsome but fruitful period for me. True enough, I seem to be like a cat on a hot tin roof and would get irritated rather quickly. It was predicted that certain events or people would get on my nerves I should keep my cool and not get into arguments. Well, today is the last day of this period and the good stuff did not happen. But I got quite a scathing comment on my school blog by a visitor who left a comment in the chatterbox. Apparently, the person must have misinterpreted what I wrote and got it that I was gloating about the reading programme in my school and how diligent the teachers were compared to the other schools. Actually, I am having problems with the reading programme as my students only enter my school when they are in Form 4. Most of them do not bring their reading records from their previous schools and I have to start from zero. Hence when it it time to send in the figures, my school has the lowest in the zone. Yesterday, there was a briefing for the reading programme and I along with two other teachers from my school went as we wanted to do something to boost our programme. Unfortunately, the visitor (who I guess must also have been present during the meeting) got it the wrong way and said that we wanted to show off and make the rest look bad.
You see writing a blog is quite a stressful thing especially where you have a chatterbox or message box. Almost every week, I would get some hurtful or nasty comments. There are a few students who write in (anonymously, of course) to chastise me for not posting their pictures in the blog. There are some who write in to criticise their friends who appear in the blog. Comments like fat, ugly or repulsive are given. Then there are some who comment that the stuff I write is boring. They don't realise that I am reporting about the activities in the school and not an entertainment blog. I also have to deal with those who leave obscene remarks and those who add the latest gossip in the box.
Anyway, today should be the last day of this quarrelsome period and tomorrow I will be entering the third month where my career luck is uneventful (which is a good thing) and my business luck is in residence. Only thing is I need to take care of my health and be careful on the road. Don't want anything like the above to happen to me. I still have yet to get my doctorate, watch Fahrenheit perform live, visit the places that I want to visit, get married and become very rich.
