Mixed Emotions: Part Two.

So recently I was watching this dance show on television and this girl came to perform; now she wasn’t like the others. Normally, standards set by these dance shows are really high and everyone expects mind blowing dances, well this dance wasn’t when I watched it in ‘coming up’. But, when I watched the real thing I was on the verge of tears. This girl I just mentioned, well she can’t hear neither speak and then it left me wondering, we judge people so fast, don’t we? We’re always passing comments on any random stranger, without knowing anything about them and it’s really saddening. This girl, she was so confident, she was smiling. A question that kept lingering in my head for a very long time after I watched that episode was, you know how these people can’t speak or hear or can’t see, but are always happy and we can speak and we’re so privileged and yet we have so many problems, it never seems to end. Isn’t it supposed to be the other way round? We’re never happy with anything, we’re always finding faults. Is this what our lives are worth?

Backward region children. Well, we’re all aware of them aren’t we? We’re always cribbing about how we don’t have the best of the teachers, how the air conditioner of our classroom is not working, how our books have not been printed properly and so on. Ever thought about these kids who don’t get proper education what so ever? These kids don’t have proper education facilities, these kids don’t get brand new books neither do they have proper notebooks or air conditioned rooms and if they can get a sixty on hundred without all of these facilities, how hard is it for us, us who get such good facilities to get a sixty. Look at the difference. 

So we’ve been having student council elections in school lately and as student council elections come near, there comes a whole lot of drama, a whole lot of changes. I mean the people who looked lousy the entire year now look like soldiers, head straight up, trying to impress every single teacher there is! I’m not saying this is wrong, do it. But do it, for the whole year. And seriously don’t lie in your speech, for heaven’s sake. Even if you lie in your speech have the courtesy to live up to it. And then comes to voting, stop bribing people to give you votes. Also, the policy of ‘vote for vote’ is really annoying, such stupid alliances.
