The man walks, and then stops at the entrance of the school. A boy is standing near the gates, his fingers pinching his ears. When the boy sees the man, he lowers his eyebrows and glares at the man. The man wants to smile at the boy. He wishes to be the boy. Just a few days ago, he had been sued by a stranger in a pub. He had punched the stranger in the face when the stranger teased about his weird dressing. The man was sentenced to a year in jail.
The man says nothing. If only he is the boy. Then he can do anything that he likes without a tingle of worry. The school and law will protect the underage.
The boy wants to smile at the man. He wishes to be the man. A few hours ago, the boy had punched a friend in the nose. The friend’s nose bleed and the boy were asked to stand near the gates for two hours as punishment. The boy frowns. If only he is the man. Then he can do anything he likes without any teacher’s intervention.
The man walks off, shaking his head. Freedom comes with a price, he thinks.
The boy bows his head. He will do anything for freedom. -- ♥

Post Exams Activities were actually quite relaxing; I had thought it's some games or stuffs like that. But apparently it's just a movie-screening; the school had letted us (Sec1-3s) pick some old movies to enjoy in the comfortable air-conditioned hall :D Watched Step'up till recess time.` &I'm sososo dreading the Elective Module tomorrow, because I'd either be in the Electrical course or the .. whatever robotic course(?) It probably requires practical + theory in order to get the certificate. Not looking forward to it, blame my stupid school which doesn't allow phones, if not can post some interesting pictures up D:
Gotten back O'lvl Emaths Paper1 & 2 results, though I was happy for my Paper 2, wasn't satisfied by Paper1. Therefore my overall maths percentage turns out bullshit. If only I read&checked my Paper1 carefully .. I won't have misunderstood some of the questions, tmd :/ Consequently I didn't topped for it, Guizhi has outbeat-en me by 1pathetic mark. &I'm blaming myself for being so careless. Grr. D:
