‘GIVE ME YOUR FEEDBACK’

BY HIBA KHAN A1G1


It’s a doggy dog world out there folks, life is no less than a race. CIEs aren’t any easy as well. In fact they seem harder and harder by the day. The pressure to do well and achieve the maximum grades can be pretty frustrating at times, so many people to please, so much work to do. But in the end it all pays off! When you run around campus with a certificate full of A’s, that’s when you realize that the things you were made to go through during school weren’t to make life hell, but to make you do the best you can! The Feedback Forms are an example of the way to push us to do better. Or are they really…?

Well I myself got a sheet full of subjects I needed to get recommended for. Though I knew why I flunked half my subjects (she says honestly), but the rest of the kids I see running around the corridors make it seem like they had no idea what went wrong and why they were being put through to this agony. I hear this one kid sitting on the steps of the canteen saying to his friend, ‘Man, trust me I will make him sign my feedback form!’ Seriously is it just me or was that guy that thick to think teachers are so gullible? Firstly you flop the exams, and then you have the courage to stand up to a teacher asking them to sign your form as if they made mistakes in checking your papers. The humiliation, gosh. Tears from the girls, and hopelessness from the boys. When you walk in a class room with a puppy dog face and you are told to ‘Get Out’, that’s what hurts the most right? Oh and then the reluctance to sit for retakes. Ehsaan kar rahay ho retake day k teachers’ pe? People don’t feel happy with anything! Are you actually that naïve to think the teachers will let you go sit for the exams without making you go through a tiny bit of pain? Perhaps if you actually sat down to with books instead of your laptop stalking people this situation could have been avoided… 

And those long, long queues outside Miss Karamally’s office. My advice, set up tents and camp fire there guys because really you have to wait for a long time for your turn to come so you can go inside and get praised by not only Miss Shireen but also Miss Hillah! Take it from someone who’s already had a visit to the Hall of Shame (Not a very good memory). From the admin office to the main office and then back to the admin office, the cycle starts off at eight thirty in the morning and finishes around two in the afternoon when the poor souls are forced to go home and come back the next day for yet another depressing, dragging day.

But even all of that doesn’t put a Pafian down. We wait in those queues, we listen to the shouting, take it with dignity, and we strive for our future! Criticism is always good, never forget that guys. And I hope that everyone got there Fee challans by now. If not, then I hope you get them soon!! Mine’s been paid, just saying…

BEST WISHES !
