Life of a prefect
I have three papers due end of this month but I have 3 more weeks so haih, chillax first lah. I’m currently juggling between chatting with random people online, reading for my class, watching drama and checking out updates from the website I said where they post ‘secrets’. I’m so good seriously *looks at self in a different light wtf
Anyway I don’t know what to blog about since I update so frequently these days..hmm oh this is a very old story but I just remembered it! Last year I think, my sis got into an accident near Sunway Pyramid. The car in front of her braked suddenly so she had to brake too and after like 3 seconds, the car behind her hit her and she saw that the guy was on the phone. So she got down, rolled up her sleeves and demanded for an explanation. (my sis is seriously very brave one) (younger sis..who is also taller than me heh heh)
Ok so she went down and asked the guys (two of them) to come down too. The guys then scolded her for braking so suddenly and refused to admit it was their fault. My very very brave sister then said “OI do you want me to report this to the police and say you are both drunk?? Bang me already somemore say my fault!” Seriously my sister was damn good lah! Ok still got a lot more. So the guys got scared hahaha cause scared my sister really will accuse them of being drunk. Then my sister said this:
“ok I give you 3 choices” (MY SISTER IS MY HERO SERIOUSLY why she not scared at all some more can think of 3 choices one!!)
“1. I’ll make a police report, they catch you, you get jailed (her exact words were ‘you masuk lokap’ wtf), I’ll visit you and laugh at you”
“2. Pay me for my damage. or 3. make me angry and I’ll do both”
HAHAHHAHA SHE’S DAMN GOOD!!!
Anyway the damage doesn’t look bad and the guys only had RM100 with them so they paid her that much. She didn’t ask for their numbers which was a mistake cause upon further inspection, the damage cost around RM600 or so. Haih so like that lah we didn’t know about the insurance policy then so my mom had to pay the rest. But really, my sister is so cool ok!

Back in high school, I used to be a prefect. I wasn’t only a prefect, I was also coincidentally a very bossy person and so I was a very bossy prefect. Everyone hates a bossy prefect don’t they? Well I’ve never really given this much thought but I guess I had a lot of enemies then T_____T I don’t know I didn’t really feel that way though! I had a lot of friends from different cliques in high school..maybe they were just pretending to be my friends wtf.
Anyway because I was in charge of managing all the prefects by assigning roles to them, so I had to be extra strict or else they’d climb unto me and manipulate me. I had to manage the students as well and since I had a lot of friends from different cliques and social strata wtf, this job was very hard for me. Telling a friend to go in front cause he doesn’t have a badge on is the worst job in the world. He’ll ask you to close one eye cause you’re his friend and when you refuse to do so (for fear that other students will request for that too), he’ll call you a traitor and hate you for life T___T
I know there are so many people who hate prefects but seriously we’re just doing our jobs. You really think I like asking people to go in front cause they don’t have a badge ar? You really think I like standing at the gate waiting for people who are late so I can reprimand them by asking them to pick up rubbish ar? Of course I rather be the one breaking all the rules and calling prefects dogs but I can’t cause I wanted to make my resume look better ok T___T haih burden of looking too far into the future wtf.
Some more forever cannot eat lunch in peace, have to rush out of class early and eat in 5 minutes and spend the rest of the recess going around making sure everything is in place. Not only that, sometimes the teachers were so fierce so we didn’t dare to ask if we can be excused so we’d have to skip lunch altogether T_______T eh seriously life as a prefect is so sucky ok! sometimes all the prefects in my class damn coward then will organize a coup to get poor ME to be the scapegoat. i guess cause everyone knew I rather get scolded than skipping lunch kua damn smart hahahah
eh not only that ok! (i’m on a roll wtf) Prefects have to arrive in school 10 minutes earlier than everyone else so we can ring the bell (now you know who’s the person behind the mysterious school bell wtf), put up the flags etc etc. NOT ONLY THAT, when everyone is allowed to sit during the assembly, poor us have to stand behind all of you so we can monitor everyone not cause we like being hawks like that but cause this is all under strict orders from the principal T____T I think I can write a book on ‘the sad life of a prefect’ wtf. But there are ups of being a prefect like we can skip class whenever we want (if you have enough power to do so) and pretend that we have an urgent meeting hahaha. We can also do spot checks on students (that’s when I will choose the class where my crush is in to do the spot check hehehe)
I never liked being a prefect at all and even more so when there were just so much politics in it. Before I graduated from high school, my teacher told me that I was never chosen as the head prefect not because I wasn’t qualified to but hear this, cause I’m a girl.
…………
She said the principal wanted a guy to strengthen our image and that the students will feel better having a guy as their leader.
……………..
Back then I didn’t think much of this though. I just nodded my head and went ‘orh orh quite true also” WTF mt holyoke would have been so disappointed that they chose such an unfeminist girl. Anyway then I asked her why didn’t she choose me as the assistant and haih the reason behind it was so political I don’t even want to mention it. But she also said I had too many responsibilities and it would be hard to prioritize. Not only that, I was also too emotional for my own good T_T haih emotional cannot meh I guess people without emotions will go further in life kua. People like me forever know how to get angry and cry only sure won’t go far in life one. Whole life sit at home and watch drama and get emotional over it only haih.
But despite my abundance of emotions wtf, I thought I was a very good leader though. Those were the days lah now I’m just a good for nothing, very quiet, ignorant and apathetic student here. I rather just go back into my room and do my work than speak for the rights of humans, women, animals, Tibetans, zombies wtf.
wah i just realized i wrote sooo long for an entry about prefects! i’m the champion lah ok goodnight.

eh i feel your pain ok. i was a prefect in sekolah rendah and menengah. students called us ‘jugdeep’s army’ (jugdeep = discipline teacher) . haih. so teruk. but at least you did your job lah. i was the lousy prefect ok, if they wanted to eat in class, they had to belanja me one fish bun, then i’d hide under the table and eat with them in class. hahha.
wah. u win d.. ni ying liao =P haha.

I always wanted to be a prefect coz all my friends were prefects. Then I was stuck with this girl who used to follow me around all the time. Damn lame la. But then ur story reminds me of my bro. He didn’t get to be the head prefect in primary school coz he wasn’t tall enough. The other guy (head prefect) was taller. Can wan like that…
Eh I remember your sister quite pretty one right!
I was prefect too! But the kind of prefects that keeps handphone for you during spot checks…

eh actually i was a prefect when i was 9 until about 12 but that was because my mom was friends with the primary discipline teacher wtf.
omg thank you so much for posting this! i can relate to what you wrote damn well! especially the politics part.
HAHAHA i was like jia meei, but i didn’t keep for them. i told my classmates when is the spotcheck and told them to hide the phones themselves cos we prefects will get checked too so we couldn’t hide the phones for them hahahaha.
If schools were run properly and with logic, the prefect’s job is totally redundant and useless.
Haha… I can totally relate to u! I was one of the org atasan, Setiausaha… aiya… kerja belakang tabir only laa -_-”!
My board was full of LOVE SCANDALS betw the org atasan. Like ketua dating penolong and all those hullabaloo. Our ketua pengawas were chosen from a certain race. Oh well, no biggie laa…
OMG I was a prefect too! All the memories rushing back WTF. Especially the standing behind students during perhimpunan thing whilst everyone else is sitting, damn tiring ok! T_T And I was forced to stand on the stage and sing all the perhimpunan songs (negaraku, selangor song, school song and sejahtera malaysia WTF) and do all the ikrars ALL BY MYSELF on stage, damn malu! ‘Cause the uztazah hated me la, politics politics.
And and and I was the type of prefect whom friends asked to help them keep porn. T_______T

Eh, you know what my teacher said that I was supposed to be chosen as an asst head prefect but cause our head prefect was new and i was new so they didnt choose me!
and my teacher is your teacher! eh why she always sat things like that to us one ah? she must really love us.
i remember being a prefect. it was fun to a certain extent, but yeah, the politics sucks and shouldn’t even existed. things we do for a nicer looking resume. we even go through the part where ppl actually call us teacher’s dogs. so sad.
typo.
i meant ‘…say things like that’ not sat.
I was almost selected as head prefect but politics changed things and I was relegated to deputy.
Because I was Chinese and not Malay.
Can relate.
Meh, I was a prefect too, very similar experiences to yours: bossy and emotional and all that :p It’s always nice to be able to look back and go “those were the days” though
hey Suet does a perfect mean someone in charge of the student body? If it is I was kinda a perfect for 2 years too haha but I was with my class against the head teacher hohohoho she hates me to the core O_o
I must say that your sister is really brave… if I were in an accident, even a tiny accident, I’d be scared shitless, much less go confront the person who caused the accident!
sigh Suet..being a prefect is not easy. gotto attend meeting la, arrive at sch earlier than others la, and the worst part, gotto skip classes and miss the lessons. then when u back to the class, not guarantee ur classmates will help u revise the missed subjects!! damn…
lol, everytime i hear got spotcheck surely get scared coz dunno where to hide my liquid paper!! throw in dustbin cannot, stick underneath desk cannot…haih that’s why maybe i should become a prefect myself so that i know when is spotcheck day hehe
Haha, in our school even the prefects call themselves the dogs of the school. Ok, maybe A prefect said that.
And, like GB said, not all prefects are called dogs. We had one special prefect in our class that we call an orangutan, eh GB?
hahaha your sister is crazy! she is damn daring man.. if me.. i peeing in my pant di haha
your sister damn cool /boo and i was a prefect toooooooo I was damn proud also and abused my power WTF
jloi, WTF why she said different stuff to both of us -_____- haih yala being a prefect was fun cause all our frens are prefects too if not i’ll hate it so much.

OMG! I can’t believe your teacher said that to you!!! Like that I would’ve written a letter of complaint to the headmaster d man. Altho then that would just get ur teacher into trouble for telling u. But WTH!? Can u believe things like that are still happening back in schools at home? How to change like that if girls are always considered inferior.. wtf man…
Oh and just cos girls actually HAVE emotions as compared to guys, it doesn’t mean we can’t do a good job okay? Can’t believe your female teacher said that ure too emotional.. ish…
hahaha I will like don’t go line up for the national anthem … stay in classrooms to chat w/ other prefects while other ppl sitting in halls listening to some boring talks. don’t line up for school bus so I can get a better seat wtf write Yuniko’s name into my notebook and tell teacher just cuz i liked him and wanted attention wtf stuff like that
hahaha during form1 my mum asked me to be a prefect since i was one during primary school.. but lazy lah i told her i wanna try out for koperasi cause it sounds interesting to be manning a shop.
and i didn’t regret it! although the go-out-10-mins-earlier thing still applies to me oso la. just that if no time sometimes we can still eat while working. sambil jual sambil makan wtf.
oooo prefect hahah! I remember them bunch of people.. not exactly the most popular but always making up for it in the most annoying and abusive ways.
but your roles seem rather subdued though hehe!
nice piece.. =)
haha back in high school i hated the prefects =.= stupid prefects, they always try to con our money. never tuck in shirt? 1 ringgit. never cut fingernails? 1 ringgit. omg!!
I was a head prefect in my high school. We didn’t have this sort of ‘rule’ about the role having to go to a guy etc etc. =)
But haha, I agree with some of what you said, the perks and the downside =) and yeah, right now I am being the super out of action girl at uni. =P
hey suet, i am a silent reader of yours
and i saw this site, the model seriously looks like you lahhh :
http://www.wretch.cc/album/show.php?i=asura86&b=2&f=1730866314&p=4
is that you wtf
haha. its like ur “wtf”, but mine is “u win d, ni ying liao” hehe
Yeah, I’m a student in the prefectorial board right now, and the politics is killing me.
In all the societies I’m in, politics in the board is so much more scarier than anywhere else. Those people in the board are the people you spend most of your time with, morning recess, after school, that when a disagreement happen it gets blown up into politics.
And oh, did I mention that we have to come about 30 minutes earlier everyday cause we have prefects’ morning assembly EVERYDAY and if you’re late for 5 seconds they make you do pumping?
And I’m like in human resource, so I’m one of the ones getting involved in planning all the cool-cool activities we have, and making the duty list, and managing the new-incoming juniors, among others.
And oh yeah, the impossible happened in my school. For the first time in it’s history (I think), the ketua pengawas is a GIRL. But there’s always a race and gender quota. Sigh.
aiping, haih tht time gonna graduate edi ma complain for what. i couldn’t believe it either but whatever la couldn’t do anything about it that time. i think they have a girl head prefect now though..ya seriously =.=
angie, hahhaa why you like that one! write yuniko’s name!! how old were u?? 8?? if 16 still do this then i dunno what to say =.=
clem, yala manning coop damn fun ok can get food for free also sometimes right!! so nice being a prefect sucks la sucks to the max
leo, bunch of ppl hahahha ya im not annoying ok T_T i hope..or too oblivious or in denial wtf
simplicityx, hahahha ya ya we also have that but the teachers ask us to collect one!!! to punish students so they won’t do that again! now our fault T_T
bubbles, haha how nice! haih those were the days
reiine, no lah where got!!! she’s sooo thin and her eyes damn big ok. dont look like me at all!!
jas, hahahha
caffy, ya seriously damn scary one. wtf prefects’ assembly?!!? which school are u from! yayyaa u got the same job as mine! ya seriously i hate it la why got race and gender quota! if you’re capable means u are la where got such thing guys means more capable
Clem, yeah I remember being a coop too. Hahaha. Damn fun, we can eat while on duty, and we can mentally plus and minus super fast! Hahaha. super fun. Heh but i quit to become a prefect.
board of prefects for me was like politics + love scandals = more politics! one junior prefect and the head boy had their eyes on the same girl and the girl ended up dating the head boy for like two weeks and then left for the junior prefect. probably self explanatory why both of them were not promoted throughout the two years in form 6! sad oh
i had a love+hate r’ship with the board. in school 30 mins early, leave school late, but it was still uber fun!xD
your facts on prefects are the same with mine..the only difference is,i am not a prefect in school..haha
hi, this is my first time reading ur blog, and lol it’s funny, ur sis case is really Geng!~ =p
