office politics in the making
this is just an observation about my class. it started out with 26 of us. halfway through, one dropped out. and then there were 25. after 2 years, 20 will go on to new zealand. but a lot of things have happened in the past 2 years. what more to say the next four?
you have cliques that were formed, reformed and then revamped. you have friends falling out with each other, there's the gossip that goes around, there's the person/s that spread the gossip.
maybe its us growing together, and there are times when you just happen to step on other people's toes.
but in a group of 25, and now 20, where there is only one male, who can be quite the bitch at times, things can get petty and catty. lets play a game, where you guess who they are, if you know their names :)
like once i was quite shocked that person A doesnt actually like person B although they appear to be very buddy-buddy.
or the other time when person C got all catty about the time i "fucked up his dinner thingy" when 6 months had passed since the incident. nobody else, even those on the commitee, made a big deal out of it. *shrug* for someone who thinks he's so open minded, he can be pretty much the opposite at times. and he should stop talking like he's black. just cause you're dark dont make you black yo! and yes, its a HE. no probs figuring out who this one is.
or the time when i found out why everyone seems to be avoiding person D. and still am shocked why. and somehow feel sorry for her. can only imagine how lonely it can get. i dont have anything against her but when other people start to avoid her and want to keep her out of group things because some people wont be okay with it, there's not much i can do about it.
i do admire person E very much for her enthusiasm and humility in learning, by stepping out of her comfort zone to try new things that may help her learn more, and having a really positive self image while maintaining her integrity and having such a strong personality. her effort is huge. if only i could be that motivated.
that i became friends with person F after so long. i missed her company and its a real shame it took so long (and the influence of certain..liquids) to tell her i'm sorry. and that i missed her. and yes, i am a dumbass.
and everybody else got weirded out about why i'm talking to person F after so long.
and the romance between person C and person G. which i believe, and i know i am in no position to judge, is a farce. but they just might work out. so..all the best to them there. at least they should make each other happy. although he wont admit to whether he fantasises about her or not. and i know for a fact he thinks there are other girls in class that are far hotter than she is. maybe he's got far more depth than i gave him credit for. *snort*
thats just the tip of the iceberg.
the others i seem to get along quite well with. they think i'm a bit weird at times, and i have a strange sense of humour. but they're fun too.
here's something evil..
what are chucklings?
what are ducklings?
they're baby ducks
so chucklings are...baby chucks.
what are baby chucks?
chuckster's babies.
if you know what i mean, then you know what i mean.
