Story in the Bus
The Bus–A story happened on a bus.
Female student A:
Female student B:
Boy A:
Boy B:
Old woman:
Scene One (Two female students are chatting on a bus. Because all the seats are taken, they are standing, holding onto some plastic rings hanging down from the bus roof. Two boys are sleeping in their seats. Then the bus arrives at a stop and an old woman gets on. She looks at the seats. Seeing no empty seats, she stands next to a female student and holds onto a plastic ring.)
Old woman: There’re no empty seats. I guess I’ll have to stand.
(The female students find the old woman not having a seat. They want to help her find one to sit in.)
Female student A: We should find a seat for her.
Female student B: Right. Those two bad boys did not give their seats to her.
(The two boys continue to sleep.) (Female student A goes to Boy A and taps on his shoulder.)
Female Student A: Excuse me, could you give your seat to that old lady?
(Boy A stretches and continues to sleep. Female students A and B look at each other. Female student B taps on Boy A’s shoulder.)
Female Student B: Hey! Can you give your seat to that old lady? Boy A: (wakes up) I lined up for twenty hours yesterday to buy A-Mei’s new album. I’m very tired. I’m sorry I can’t give my seat to the old lady. (continues to sleep)
Female student A: What should we do?
Female student B: Let’s ask the other boy.
Boy B: (gets up suddenly) Ah!
All: (startled)Ah!
Female student B: What happened?
Female student C: Why did you scream?
Boy B: I had a nightmare. It was terrible.
Female student B: Excuse me, can you give your seat to that old lady?
(Boy B falls asleep.)
Female student A: Hello! Is it OK for you to make room for that old lady?
Boy B: Let me sleep, please. I read an English novel all night last night and didn’t get any sleep. Can you let me sleep for a while?
Female student A: Well, we’ve tried.
Female student B: The young man is really brash.
Old woman: Thank you, young ladies! I’m OK! Don’t think I’m an old woman. I am healthy. (makes a few kicks like a young man)
Female student B: Maybe we worry too much. The old lady’s very healthy.
(The bus driver hits the brake suddenly and the old woman falls over. It makes Boy A wake up.)
Boy A: Oh! Are you OK?
Old woman: Oh! Oh! My waist!
Boy A: You can take my seat. (helps the old woman to the seat)
Female student A: Hmm. He just got his conscience.
Female student B: Yeah. I thought he was a cold-blooded animal.
Boy A: Hey! Watch your own manners. I’ve given her my seat. I’m really very tired.
(At this time Boy B is embarrassed. He dares not continue to sleep.)
Old woman: Thank you, young man. I’m old and useless. Boy B: Don’t say that. If I’d given you my seat earlier, the accident wouldn’t have happened.
(The bus driver hits the brake suddenly again. Boy A falls down.)

Scene Two (The Old woman and Boy B sit in the seats. Boy A is standing behind the twogirls and drowsing. The two girls continue to chat. Boy A is drowsing carelessly and bumps into Female student A’s body.) Female student A: Oh! Who touched me? (turns her head around and sees boy A standing behind her) It’s you, right?
Boy A: What?
Female student B: Why? You did it intentionally, didn’t you?
Boy A: Wait. I didn’t do anything.
Female student B: You touched her intentionally, right?
Boy A: Hey, I’m not that kind of person. (looks at Boy B) Hey… Is it you?
Boy B: (confused and shakes his head) Not me. I was sleeping.
(The bus driver hits the brake suddenly again. Boy A bumps into Female student A again.)
Female student A: (angry) Still saying it wasn’t you? You pig!
Boy A: I didn’t mean it. Old woman: Nowadays boys are not the same as those in the past. Boys in the past were all very polite. Now boys are reckless.
Female student B: Now what do you have to say? Apologize to her. Hurry!
Boy A: Alright! Alright! (to female student A) I’m sorry.
(Female student A ignores him and continues to chat with the other girl.)
Boy A: It’s not my day today.
Boy B: Gentlemen don’t fight with women. And she’s no nice woman.
Old woman: Nowadays girls don’t have good temper. Time really changed.
Boy B: Older people know more than us.

    “Ms. Teresa. I would like to let you know that I really love to work with you. You are a very friendly and responsible. I sincerely appreciate your support all the time, especially for coming early to setting up the classroom. I understand you would like to leave 15 minutes early in the afternoon since you come 15 minutes early in the morning. I am not sure that you noticed that the ratio set at the center for the room is 1 to 3. I was worried about the children’s safety since I was all by myself with four children at that time. I wonder if you have any suggestion that we could solve this problem together.” (Wait for Teresa’s…

    Once again, I was placed in Mrs.Metcalfe who teaches second grade at Bens Branch Elementary. Mrs.Metcalfe took attendance while the students waited patiently on the carpet. After she took attendance, she addressed that she had taken some privileges away from the students because the students did not picked up their mess after having centers and would not follow instructions that the teacher gave. She explained that centers might return for the upcoming school year if they behaved properly. After she addressed the issues of the students, she instructed everyone to go back to their desks and waited till they put their thumbs which meant that they were ready for the lesson of the day. Mrs.Metcalfe went up to the front of the class to use the projector and expected her students to follow what she was doing on their worksheets.…

    The rules and regulations of Ms. Miller's classroom consists of no talking, no use of a cellular device, no chewing gum or eating food, no restroom breaks, and definitely no misbehavior whether she is present or not. The presence of a substitute calls for integrity and morals on my part, which I did not display most recently, but you can rest assure that it shall never occur again. Though I cannot expect to gain your trust so easily I do hope to have a substitute in the near future so that I may redeem myself and show you my true character because that surely was not it. My behavior was deplorable and I did not in anyway show you any of the qualities that an IB student should possess.…

    Speculating the Limits of Theory by Malini Foobalan As a second year architecture student, I find myself speculating about things that I never thought I would. The question to myself in fact, is why I care questioning, and what is it that has made me come up with such questions. Is it the influence of people around me, my developing critical thinking or, is it an arbitrary questioning that a typical architecture student would engage in?…
