某女生作诗曰:
一日黄昏漫步,见一男生装酷,呕吐,呕吐,低头只想撞树。

男生回诗曰:
一日自习深处,见一恐龙撞树,恐怖,恐怖,可怜那棵小树。

西卒是个醉,
月垂是个睡,
酒仙李太白,
怀抱酒坛在土坡睡,
不知他是醉,
不知他是睡;
月长是个胀,
月半是个胖,
太师秦夫人,
怀抱大肚在花园逛,
不知她是胀,
不知她是胖。

他有爱滋病 (He has Aids!!)

看着自己现在的遭遇,让我想起小学的事。

班里有两位同学:萧和贤同学。他们两都是坐在E组的。我因坐在A组,所以也没什么和他们两有什么接触,但是他们俩不合的事,全班都知道。整天不是吵架就是打架。

不知道是几时开始的,除了萧,还有其他几名同学就一直说贤同学有爱滋病,每次一看到他就会这么说,而且B班的同学也是这么说。

贤同学每次看到这种情景都会当着没听见走开。

这件事也持续挺久的,少说也有半年那么久。

有一天,我接到贤同学母亲打来的电话,其实他的母亲也是我幼稚园的老师,也是我教会的管理人。朱老师打来就只是想问,到底是谁说他儿子有爱滋病。听到这问题,我还真的不知道怎么回答,就只是说不知道,因为都没参那组的人,到底是谁开始,过后又是谁传到这么厉害的,我都不知道。

朱老师挂了电话后,志辉和祥伟都打来问我有没有接到贤同学母亲的电话。原来朱老师打了给好多人,想查出到底是谁散播的谣言。

第二天,下课的时候,我在课室里和朋友聊天,办公室就在课室隔壁。突然听见有人很大声说话,声音很熟悉,原来真的是朱老师,她一直在问姚老师到底发生什么事,为何她的儿子会觉得到学校上课会很辛苦,很自卑,很像精神和心理上受到很大的创伤。虽然幼稚园时也有看到朱老师生气,但是还真的没看过她这么激动。

下课后,我们都没得上课,因为姚老师就只是在课室里问大家事情的来龙去脉,并且严厉警告我们不许胡乱说话,散播谣言。

虽然和贤同学没什么来往,但是现在想起来,他那时应该真的很难受,也很辛苦,无端端被人讲,而且不只是一个,是很多个。

有时觉得人很过分,很多时候都没有想到别人的感受就做出伤害他人的事。。

Looking at my current situation, it suddenly reminds me what happened in primary school.

My class used to be divided into groups A to E. In group E, there was two students, Xiao & Hsien. As I was in group A, I seldom mix with them. Nonetheless, everybody knows about them, as they never get along and often get into fights and quarrels.

Can't really tell when it really started, but besides Xiao, a few other students started saying Hsien actually has Aids! The second class students were also saying the same thing. All Hsien does when encountering such gossips was to walk away silently.

This event took place many times and continue for like half a year or so.

One day, Hsien's mother phoned me. His mother, Mdm Esther was my kindergarten teacher and church fellowship supervisor. All she wanted to know was what happened in school and who was the person involved in spreading the rumour. But frankly, I didn't know the answer at all. I later got calls from Fei & Seangwei, then knowing that Mdm Esther actually called quite a few of us trying to find out what happened in school.

The next day during recess time, I heard a loud argument from the staff room which is just beside my classroom. It was Mdm Esther confronting Ms. Yao, my class teacher, asking why she noticed her son emotionally and mentally distress, fearing to go to school. Though it was normal to see Mdm Esther got a heated up during kindergarten, but never to such extend before.

Later, Ms Yao spend the lesson time interrogating the class trying to understand the unfortunate rumour which spread, and sternly warned all of us from such misdoings.

Though I was never closed to Hsien, but thinking back, he must have gone through some very tough times back then, having to face so many people pointing fingers at him, laughing at him, mocking him. It must be really sad.

It is even sadder that people can do things to others without thinking of their feelings...

I guess sometimes, it is hard to be in this kind of situation. To explain, will make things worst. And if not explained, things will just go on and rumours will keep spreading.

People ought to take responsibilities for their words. Sometimes, a small rumours may ruin life.

Now it's really obvious to me that growing up with different people will have different mentality.

The feedback I've got regarding the rumours spread has been "those ppl have the rights to say what they want because they are speaking with their friends"

they never think that what they say can ruin other's life.. rather selfish, i think..

and worse, do u think when the rumours spread n u confront them, they will admit that they r the ones who told others?

A crook would not admit himself as the crook right? generally i mean..
