Chereads / My Unexpected Weakness / Chapter 53 - Approaching Events

Chapter 53 - Approaching Events

After I replied to Xian's message with a teasing emoji, we are surprised that the teacher we are expecting to come doesn't attend our class for this day.

Instead, the Teacher who attended and stood in front of us right now is no other than our very kind class adviser, Teacher Jacinto.

Standing in front of us, her back facing the two whiteboards which teachers used when they were discussing, our teacher roamed around her eyes watching my classmates settling down and sitting on their designated chairs and when silence already filled the entire place, she sighed and finally spoke.

"Hello class? Good morning." She said casually while there was a little bit of a smile plastered on her face, our class adviser's height is not that small and not that tall and I guess she is already in her mid 30's.

"Good morning Teacher!!" We answered excitedly, as we stood as our sign of respect as students.

"Okay, take your seat." She instructed us, which we followed.

"It's nice to know that you guys, are one of the most behaved sections during the mass earlier," she complimented and her smile shouts proudly that again, we are one of the 'most behaved students' during the mass.

"The Head department Teacher of Junior High School was observing your behavior since the first mass of this school year and you really proved to him that you got it all guys."

She continued which made some of my classmates faked a cough because maybe they really knew their true behavior, Teacher Jacinto ceased her forehead which made them smile back when I roamed my eyes around.

Well Teacher Jacinto, if you really knew what really happens when you are not around and you are busy in the Faculty's area and if you are going to spy us and that Head Department Teacher, let's see if you still have the audacity to tell us those words.

"What does she mean she got it all? What are we? A mall?" Paul asked while whispering enough for Teacher Jacinto to not hear it but since I am in front of him, well I can literally hear him and Celyn was next to me.

"Anyways, I have other news for you too." She said and eagerness is audible in her voice.

"What is it, Teacher?" I asked curiously and most of them looked at me.

"Well Leiva, it's not a surprise to me that you were still not updated because this was just announced earlier after the mass by the University's management. And you know what month next week right? And it is?" She said like she was asking.

"November!!!!" We said in unison.

"Yes, that's right. So it means that our Foundation anniversary and Intramurals week are approaching," she said and some of us burst out their happiness but some of us too like me, because I will have a lot of my plates again.

Stressing weeks are approaching right.

"What are we gonna perform again Teacher?" Vince asks excitedly because he may be planning to take over the scene again like the past 3 years that he did.

"'Maybe we will sing and dance again?" Justin uttered.

"I am excited for the most awaited basketball tournament you know!" A womanly voice shouted and we started to make a noise again.

"Will online games tournaments be included again?"

"Are outsiders welcome?"

"Can we have an absent day?"

"Do we have to pay again for something?"

That is what I heard from some of what they said and I guess our Teacher's patient was going already so I gestured to them by putting my index finger over my nose and said "shhhh," which they did and looked in front like obedient dogs.

"Are you already done, students?" She asked without mockery so she smiled again and continued to talk. "

"Some things and events for Foundation anniversary and Intramurals week are still being discussed by the management but the one thing that is for sure is you guys," she said and paused for a second.

"Are going to perform again in the USTArena," she said pertaining to where we stayed earlier for one hour. "And like last year you'll do a musical by dancing and singing or, singing and dancing. Get it?" She said and we answered "Yes."

What will be the theme again? My gosh, this will literally stress out our section since our performance will be graded in our subject Music, Arts, And Physical Education.

And I guess, they had a high expectation of us again since we are quite competitive, the number one group that always competes on us at the top was MJosh's section together with Krize's section too, since he is the son or I must say Krize is the next heir of this University.

Dancing and singing huh? They say that if it's only dancing it is boring and if it is just singing lile choir, it's still boring.So every section and grade level, both Senior High School and Junior High School department competes every year.

Not just only in this category but also in every category and types of sport, even theatre acting and so on. This huge event will make us stressed and frustrated. I guarantee.

But last year, the theme was Disney or every cartoon character. And our gang borrowed the theme and vibes of TROLLS and since we need to perform two since, we sang and danced the music's theme song which are, CAN'T STOP THE FEELINGS and TRUE COLORS.

Of course we enjoy ourselves being shameless in front of that wide stage watched by a thousand people including supportive parents and teachers.

My parents did not attend that time because they have a business trip but it was just fine because Lick and Buz are present on that time. I even remember that Lick took Ely with him because she mentioned that she had a relative that studies here too.

Well back to the performance we did last year. Honestly speaking, it was really so costly from time, money, costumes, props and we even rented an instructor to fix our performance.

But most of my classmates are big time so we gage our full efforts and we give the discipline that we are hiding, time management and leadership and so on.

And well, we were presented as first runner up in grade 9 category since we were in grade 9 back then and second runner up in the Junior High School Department and overall in the High School Department, we got fourth place.

Not bad for a young high schoolers right? At least we got an award and we enjoyed it. And we shared very treasured memories that will be considered as good old days when time passed by.

So here I am, kinda excited and at the same time nervous on what theme will be used for this school year.

"So, what will be the Festivals of Section's talent theme, Teacher?" Aeigh said, asking Teacher Jacinto.

"Well, from what they said. You guys, will it have a 2010's music theme? I don't know if you need to dance and sing again but I will announce it to you as soon as it is confirmed. Be creative and do your best because it's your final year in Junior High School Department, do bring home the beacon okay?"

She said pressuring us while she was leaning on the table near the white board. Yeah right final year, so what's the goal? Be the first place both in Grade 10 category and Junior High School category.

"Okay Teacher," uttered by some of my classmates answering Teacher Jacinto and she nodded.

"And it's not new for all of you when is the exact week of that event, right? And that's the end week of November? Yes." And we all nodded as she continued to talk again.

"So, while waiting for the further announcement, and you don't have the subject teacher. I will give you time to have a meeting about the plan for your performance and note if your performance is very good and if you'll win. You had a plus point from me on your subject on me." She said which gave happiness to our hearts.

"All of us Teacher?" Justin asked which he stuttered in pronouncing letter R again but he is trying and he had this deep voice too.

"Yes, all of you and maybe from your other subjects units too. They will surely give you. I'll go now because we still have a meeting about those events, be silent okay?"

She said as she bid her goodbye and left the room saying that I need to take care of our class since I am the class president and have an initial plan for the performance of us next month.

I guess three weeks of preparation will do. But other performance grades and presentation of us will be the barrier for our practice area.

"Our performance must be very amazing and fantastic!!" Shreen said which is the seatmate of Paul and Shreen is a one of the dancers on our section and they are close friends with Jom, my assistant Editor in Chief on the school paper and both of them are dancers.

Yeah, Shreen it must be very amazing which is our main stressor for the next few days on the next month. My gosh, my fats will leave me again and the expectations? Argh I hate it.

But wait, how about MJosh and Xian's basketball match? When is that again? So I can watch and maybe support one of them?
