Episode 1 : The Scheme Manace.

Sorry for the sudden change in title.
I was planning to write that but the more I wrote the further it drifted and the longer it got.
This will be in episodes. Don't worry, it has everything to do with Pesta Ria.....Pasta-Rian.........PassTheShit!
Teachers will not play such a major role, but they are still stars in this post.
It's going to be about my school's ultimate scheme.
Quote Emoperor : This is serious blogging material!

My school was scheming to build an indoor hall last year. This indoor hall can be used for assemblies or as an indoor basketball court. The reasons they give for the need of such a structure to be built are:
Due to everyday assemblies, students in the afternoon session have to stand under the hot sun and many of them had fainted due to the scorching sun. The hall will serve as an assembly hall for them.(What the hell happened to us in the morning session? We can't use it? Fine, this reason still make sense)
There are actually a few more reasons, I can only remember two. The first one above and the last one, this:
The hall can be use to hold celebrations and also to be rented out for other people's usage. (Here's their true intentions. To rent it for money. I can still remember the words from Dinosaur last year about this issue)

For the location, they are going to build the hall on the current two basketball courts. Two basketball courts are hardly enough for them and if (I say if) it gets replaced by one indoor basketball court, goodluck with the brawling in the indoor hall for the rights to use it.

Alright, that's their scheme and what everyone needs to carry out a scheme? Yes, money. I have no idea which buffoon came out with this scheme but he/she/it sure as hell is either the i-give -you-a-scheme-i-don't-care-how-but-just-get-the-shit-done person or i'm-so-rich-that-i-can-give-you-a-scheme-but-you-will-never-get-a-cent-from-me type of cheapskate. Reason for this hypothesis, they have the plans ready but they don't have the amount of money needed for this scheme. When they don't have the money, they turn to their forced-bankers a.k.a. students/parents.

Their first course of action is the usual please-donate-for-this-honorable-cause method. There's a slightly different twist to this method. They held a majlis makan malam/dinner uh........celebration to raise the money. Students are given colourful papers which you need to fill info for either a seat, a table, a few tables or the all time favourite, give-us-money-even-if-you're-not-going paper (I can still remember that it's yellow in colour).Whether you like it or not you have to pay. There was a price range for each of it that you need to either pay that amount or more for the specific seat/table/tables. They encourage us to go or better yet get ten tables each to bring all your relatives there for free food and the performance they put up on that day. Did I forget to mention that they'll be brainwashing you too for more money than the amount paid for the seat/table/tables? I'm not sure how that night went, but according to my sources it was quite successful (they didn't get people to pay for that whole hall, guess not so successful after all). They manage to exto.........gather more than RM100000, I think. Wait, I almost forgot, that dinner was held at some other school's indoor-air-conditoned hall that they rented. They are wasting money even before they exto.....earned any. (Extention to their reasons, the hall can be used for this type of occasions next time).

Here's something worth mentioning.
Since they didn't get as much as they want, there was another attempt at extortion. Method number 2, feel-guilty-and-pay-up. Some teacher started uh.......story-telling on how un-received by the public the attempt at forced-donation was, so she decided to tell us a little story. According to her, some representative from some orphanage went to see her to offer a RM100 for this worthy cause. Even though it's not much but it's the thought that counts. They offered the money as a sign of support towards their sch.......plan. Even outsiders would come and show support why not you, our ban..........students. I find this extremely weird/doubful/funny/fishy/whatever. Come on, you're from an orphanage. You have better use for that money like taking care of the kids there. Who in their right mind gives money in the name of an orphanage? By giving the money, it means they're taking money from their orphanage funds, which is used for the welfare of the children, which does not belong to them in the first place (Go buy more candy if you have too much money). Something just doesn't add up here.

That's it for now. It's getting a bit too long. Look forward to episode two.
