Hold your urine until recess!

On the last week of Term 3, Ryde Secondary College forced us to hold our urine (or poop) until recess. They're at it again... they just can't be bothered to get off their fat arses to unlock the toilets! And even if you still have a few more minutes until the bell rings, don't bother going to the office toilets. Even if you're at the counter, the office ladies won't even look at you as if you weren't there!

An Inconvenient Truth (ALBERT GORE)

One of the latest released movies is "An Inconvenient Truth." I just saw the movie the other day. It is just a video of a conference about the environment that former US Vice President Al Gore hosts. It is a great movie, documentary to be exact, because it includes humorous cartoons that are suitable for younger people. Generally, this documentary is more of an adult-movie not because of any inappropriate language or violence, but its because throughout the movie there are words that I don't understand and probably words that you wouldn't dream of using.


The film shows how Antarctica is steadily melting and how the people in Nepal will suffer if snow on Mount Everest melts fast. It shows shocking pictures of places a few decades ago and today. All the ice has melted. The movie is supposed to change the way you live: where you get your electricity from and what products you buy. In the end credits, they've also got tips to be environment friendly. 


The film includes a satellite image of the earth from millions of miles away. The earth is shown as a really small dot in the picture. Al Gore explains that we are a very, very small part in the universe and the Earth is our only hope. If we mess our world up, we're hopeless - we'll come to the end of human civilisation. 


The funny thing is that Al Gore is persuading all these people to be envirofriendly but it shows clearly that he isn't that environment friendly. For example, in the movie you see Al driving his car around and his Apple laptop is always switched on. But, that's politics. Politics is all about telling people to do things! 


The official site of the movie is climatecrisis.net The movie runs for 96 minutes (1 and a half hours and 6 minutes) and was rated 9/10 in the Sun Herald 17.9.2006. You can view the trailer at Google Video. Just type in "An Inconvenient Truth" and the trailer will come up.




Going on 743 gets expensive!

Quite frankly, it has gone too far. If you're bus pass says Eastwood and if you like going on the 743, that's about to end. With Mr. B and his assistants terrorizing the bus system, it is now hard to get onto the 743 if you go to Eastwood. Mr. B threatened for the third time on Tuesday that Eastwood people who go on the 743 will be on detention.


ALLEGED STATEMENT
"All Eastwood people get into this line [745]. You'll be on detention if you catch the 743!"


Wow! That's a bit harsh isn't it. Being on detention when you're going on a bus that you have a right to go on. The bus pass clearly states that you are allowed to board school bus services and not timetables services. I'm following the rules. It's just that stupid Mr. B that's making new bus rules that don't exist!


Beware of Mr. B. His baloney will not stop until Week B, because he "patrols" the bus lines mainly on Week A. Who cares what he says! He's trash-talking. If you are afraid of getting a detention, just take the long way - run around the oval and get past him! (I've been caught once, but most times I make it along with my friends)


Just keep in mind that Mr. B does not have the right to confiscate your bus pass because you are actually abiding by the rules of State Transit. Do not be afraid of Mr. B's non-existent rules. And plus, if I'm getting a detention, I'm not going to it! I have a right to go on the 743 and Mr. B. can't do anything about it. Should the school need to call my parents, why not? See what my parents say about Mr. B!


HA!!! KISS MY ARSE 745!


And don't bother saying you're getting off at West Ryde or Top Ryde because he's smart enough to figure out you're lying. Well, he's not smart, maybe just smarter than a cow!

PDHPE:  Includes an Inbuilt Dressing Lesson

It was the last fifteen minutes of lunch time Tuesday September 11, 2006. The next period (Period 5) was PDHPE Practical in the MPC which meant we had to get changed into our sports uniform. A couple of friends and I changed in the D Block Toilets (thank god they're open!) before we then hung out near the MPC. Mr B. (we've been writing about him lately) came past and said "Why are you in you're sports uniform?" I replied "Because PDHPE would be our next period." Mr B. then said "You're supposed to get dressed during the start of the lesson, not before." (Normally we're allowed to change at lunch... why can't we?)


What the hell is that supposed to mean? 


Oh great... now we have an inbuilt dressing lesson?

EXPOSED: The Library's Big Stuff Up

At Ryde Secondary College's library, there is a censor right at the door to detect if you have stolen any books. The censors are faulty because they beep even if you walk through with a book that doesn't belong to Ryde Secondary College. 


It was Monday 11 September, 2006, and the bell rang signifying the end of Period 3 (Information Skills). Everyone left the library and walked to their next class. As I walked through, the alarm on the censor was triggered. The library teacher, called "Mr D.M." (not naming) called me back and checked my bag. And what is the most infuriating is that the alarm was triggered because of a book in my back that didn't even belong to the library.


Mr D.M. swiped my book onto this machine behind the counter and... you guessed it.. he said "Hurry up and go to your next class." No apology... as I expected.


A NOTE TO RYDE SECONDARY COLLEGE:


If you have so much money to waste on the
 
crappy Sun Microsystems Computers in the library


which have no sound or graphics card, why don't


you fix up your god damned library censors? 


Your stupid library censors cause chaos around


the library! It's not the first time something like


this has happened!

School Toilets

It's pretty sad really - the school just can't be bothered to open up the school toilets until the last few minutes of recess or at half bell during lunch time. On Tuesday, I was desperate to go to the toilet at the end of Period 2, the class before recess. 


When the bell rang, I sped to the toilet only to find that they were locked up, as I expected. I ran to the office and I was told that they were open. I went back to the toilet.... still locked... GRRRR!!! I went to the office again and I got the same reply as before so I checked again. STILL LOCKED!!!! STUFF THE GOD DAMNED TOILET!!!! For the third time, I dashed to the office and there was the same reply. I went to the toilet... and finally... they were OPEN... Thank god!!!


I checked the time and saw that there was only two minutes until the end of recess. TWO MINUTES LEFT!!! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO POO!!! Well, lucky it was Tuesday because I had to wait an hour (Period 3). If it were any other day of the week, I'd be so furious that I would be swearing at the office people!


As you might of read on this website before, it is inhumane to lock up toilets.  Get off your fat arse and unlock the toilets!!!

The person who wrote this site hasn't done this once, he's done it several times. He has done it on his other site www.gorillazfeelgoodinc123.spaces.live.com. Its a real shame that we can't prove to you about his wrongdoing on the site, but we can tell you that one of the posts were titled "Jesse and Dylan teasing each other."


The creator of these sites loaded with pure rubbish also spammed many people with an email criticising Jesse.

hey guys, this is a message to say that jesse ---- will be leaving around
next year and moving off to dandenong around south melbourne and if he
doesnt, then stuff him! I hate him like hell! I bet most of you would hate
him as much as i would!


The bad stuff he has done


2005


He hacked into -----'s email account at ---@hotmail.com and deleted
all his stuff
He stuffs people
He started this ------- rumour i which i dont even like her and she doesnt
like me


2006


He acted as ------@hotmail.com trying to say he was justin and
swearing to me on that account
He then acted as -----@hotmail.com (with the 'i' on the
gorillaz) saying its me and saying i was a gaylord (im not)
He then acted as another email on ------@hotmail.com (remember the 18,
not the 17)
He started other rumours such as ones to -----, ----- and
----.
He even kept bagging out people at the library and at school
He hacked into my gmail account on -----@gmail.com which he
answered the secret question to the account
He then yesterday hacked into a guy called ----@gmail.com and then
---- got it back but hacked it again (just like how ----- got hacked)
He had a referral for english and he nearly had like something of a
suspension.


So there were a whole lot of stuff he has done and you would wanna get rid
of him straight away from your contact list now! Its -----@hotmail.com,
-----@hotmail.com, -----@hotmail.com, ------@hotmail.com,
emusandcows@gmail.com.


So get rid of it now or you will be affected by him hacking into your
account and stuffing you up


*******************


Only one sentence in the email above is true:


"hey guys, this is a message to say that jesse ---- will be leaving around
next year and moving off to dandenong around south melbourne...."


The person has for the first time in his life, since 1993, been right. I am in fact moving to Melbourne. In response to his email, I immediately called him and explained to him how I felt about the email. Because he didn't apologize or act remorse or anything, I was furious. So, in return I sent an email on Sunday out to people criticising the person who wrote the email about me. I also told everyone that he was lying in the email.


To my surprise, the next day, Monday, I was in a bit of trouble. "Mr B.", the person who we have written about before, wanted a chat with me about the incident. So, the person who sent the email about me had dobbed on me. What a prick! First he criticises people on gorillazfeelgoodinc123.spaces.live.com, then he spams people with an email and finally, to make me boiling with anger, he criticises people on gorillazfeelgoodinc1234.spaces.live.com.


Mr. B wanted a print out of the email message that he sent and the one I sent. So, I was sure that he had dobbed on me about the email I sent in retaliation to his email.


The thing that infuriated me the most was how he wrote: "I nearly had like something of a suspension." Although I have been on detentions, I have not received a referral and I don't want one. If you get three referrals, you'll get a green card which is something that will monitor your behaviour for a week or so. If that doesn't work, you get a blue card that will monitor your behaviour for longer. Then you'll get a yellow card. And if that doesn't work, a suspension will take place. And if that doesn't work, you'll be expelled, that's right, EXPELLED (the person who sent the email about me should be expelled.)


I haven't even been close to getting a card, and I haven't got a referral. So how dare the person says I nearly got suspended. That is pure crap.


********


We'll keep you posted on what happens to that old crackpot and hopefully, at the least, he'll get a referral for broadcasting this kind of false information.





Ryde Secondary College Bus Chaos

As we have mentioned before, "Mr B." who normally terrorizes bus lines on Week A forces all Eastwood people onto the 745 bus. One day in this week (it's either Tuesday or Wednesday) he said "Eastwood people go to the 745 bus or I'll take your bus passes away." Who cares about what he said. Teachers such as Mr. B have no right to seize bus passes, although State Transit has the right. After all, students are not cheating or disobeying State Transit by going on the 743 bus. One of the conditions of State Transit written on the back of the buss pass is:


"1.B) THIS PASS: Is valid for travel between holder's registered home address and school, on school days only via the most direct means. Any extension of the journey must be paid for when boarding. The return journey must be commenced by 6:30PM.  "
Even when I travel on the 743, I am still obeying all the rules of State Transit. So:


745 my ass!!!
Who gives the damn what the bus monitors say! They are so stupid. I've being going on the 743 for the past week and I realise how many people get off at Eastwood. Over 10 people catch the 743 bus to Eastwood, so its not only me. 


And even if the stupid bus monitors check your ticket, just run around out of the school and board the bus. I usually run around the oval or the "carpark exit" to the bus. 


Furthermore, the 743 still goes to Eastwood and if no Eastwood people were on the bus, the bus would be wasting its fuel driving to Eastwood with no passengers.

Computer Skills Competition

As you all know, all students from Ryde Secondary College have not received their Computer Skills results yet despite the fact that Computer Skills was the first test they had and that they have received their results for Science, English and Writing. This has forced me to compose a letter pretending to be a "concerned parent" called Jamie. Check it out below:


SENT: Saturday 2/Sept/2006 (o well... they might not receive it during the weekends)


Dear Ryde Secondary College,


I am a concerned parent of a student enrolled at R.S.C. I was just wondering why students have not received their UNSW Computer Skills results yet. It really doesn't make sense because students have already received their Science, English and Writing although Computer Skills was the first competition they had. Other selective schools in this area have already received their Computer Skills results. Please hand out the computer skills results. 


Yours sincerely,


Jamie




Macquarie ICT

7C and 7D went onto the ICT Excursion held at Macquarie University. The first day 7C did Animation and the next day, we did Robotics. Everyone had to work in pairs. Animation was soooo cool. We took numerous images of toys using a webcam and made it into an animation on a PC. Later on, we added sound using iMovie on a Mac, which was interesting 'cos I've never used a Mac before. Macs are actually quite good. When you get used to it, you may find that it is better than Windows.


iMovie beats Windows Movie Maker. You can alter the voice of a person with iMovie as the functions of Movie Maker are very limited. 


Robotics was quite boring. It was different... very different to animation. I prefer animation. The worst part was how I was forced to work with a person in the class I didn't want to work with thanks to a science teacher (not naming teacher's name) who was supervising us for the day.   
Even for Animation I was allowed to choose who I wanted to work with, just because my English teacher was supervising us for Animation. The science teacher pretty much spoilt my day! I would of been more "productive" if I was to choose who to work with. 

Deputy Principal on air

What a coincidence! It was Tuesday 29 August, 2006. As you know, the recycle bin was burnt that day. That night on ABC News, there was a report on behaviour schools ("Students who behave badly will go to behaviour schools whether their parents like it or not") and Ryde Secondary College Deputy Principal S. Ramsey was on TV! That's right, Mr Ramsey was on ABC News! I could recognise our school because of the sports uniform, the metal black seats and the oval. The camera was facing towards a white car in the carpark next to the oval during a game of football (there was a white football on the oval). 


It is just a coincidence really how the deputy principal is talking about behaviour schools a few hours after the garbage bin was lit.
