I clapped-the professor got pissed off!
July 29th 2008 11:53
I was like joking around to escape the pressure of the upcoming Preliminary Exams this morning in our two major subjects in Journalism. It is conducted the same day, one after the next. This classmate of mine tripped on one of our classmates. Nonsense, but I imitated. He clapped for this person, nothing too significant, but I liked the idea. If you were asking why, well it's because I really am fed up by the pressure of the exam. Of course everyone feels like perfecting or simply get a high mark on an exam paper.
And so, another classmate entered the room. Everybody clapped. The professor wasn't there yet and we are too crazy to joke around. Another after another classmate of ours entered our room. We all had fun doing it so why worry. It's like making us forget that we're about to face a mind-bleeding MAJOR exam.
And so, the professor entered. I wasn't looking who entered the door. But since somebody clapped, I thought our scheme of clapping to another person is still effective. Soon I realized she was the professor when she started speaking. "What are you clapping about? Would you like a minus ten?" I was shocked and couldn't answer. "Next time don't do anything you can't justify." Eventually, it led her to be pissed off the whole examination interval. DARN IT!
I'm not really a very good student though I am currently still in the Dean's List (no professor knew that) but it is my first time to encounter such incident. I always believe that I never gave any professor any headache. Now, I spoiled it. *blames*
I really hate the feeling when I got INTIMIDATED by anyone. Because once I get intimidated, I tend to think about it the whole day and perceive myself so lowly compared to everbody especially when this intimidation is justified. Just like what happened this morning.
Well, I really hope I can be forgiven by that professor. If she needs my sorry then I'll do so. I didn't intend to do it. As I've said, I needed to joke around to divert the pressure. That, maybe, was the part she didn't know.
