An average man’s action is influence by both his intelligence and emotions. A leader follower can only follow whereas a leader is responsible for himself and foremost his platoon therefore citing the importance of making decisions after much thought and planning. That’s no so average already now is it?
Prefects are but normal students. They go to the same school, study in the same class, play on the same field, interact with the same kind of students, breathe the same air and indulge in the same food. So the only thing that differentiates a prefect with a normal student is his uniform? Ironic!
Society expects prefects to be more than an average man with the super-human ability to stay clean –in both thought and deed-, smart and fine all the time. ALL THE TIME! Put aside the fact that they are not so super-human but rather do you think u are capable of doing what u expect them to do?
So when a few of my friends (some which are prefects) were caught one morning coming back to school after breakfast, repercussions were expected. I would’ve joined them myself if I hadn’t go for a talk. It was the 1st week of school, which means orientation, which also means that there are no classes. Canteen food takes a lil time to getting used to for they suck and they suck a lot.
Since they were thought to be more than human, the consequences of their actions were more severe. They were suspended and denied of their privilege…for now. Then after a few months of negotiating and indecisions from the admin, a letter was presented sacking them for sure and they are expected to revert to normal schoolboy uniforms within a few days.
I am however curious and this matter has prick my brain for awhile. Why was the school so harsh? I agree with the suspension however but not with the sacking. Many prefects were caught flying b4 and they were let off with only a warning. It prolly didn’t help their case for not having a Bin in their name but that can’t be helped. Besides, they were good prefects who did they job well and are also top-students in their classes. It must be that stupid Bin!!!
The school seems to hv forgotten the contributions they have performed and hog onto this 1 small mistake as an excuse to sack them. Maybe because there were too many prefects therefore tricking the admin to think they can offload some w/o threatening to ability of the prefects board. With spurred another thought, how the fuck are they going to run the school when capable people are being offloaded? Furthermore, the new candidates that were chosen are a disgrace albeit not all of em but most of em. It causes worry for these new tp’s are the kind u would expect to be carrying a teacher’s ass and lick when instructed to. They are the kind where they wouldn’t dare argue with a teacher and submissive. Tragic…tragic..tragic! Hmmmph, it seems that all those ass carrying and licking has done them much good.
It’s tragic and sad that capable people are sent away and the replacements are…..not up to standard? Gone are the days where prefects instil fear and discipline in the students with just their presence. Gone also are the days where students respect and obey a prefect’s command. Maybe im just overly pessimistic or that im pissed with the stupidity of some. However, when a not so average man makes a mistake, he’s not that super-human after all now is he? Oh well, i hope that it'll be a lesson not only to my friends but also the school and their ' intelligent and all-knowing adults. '
