New Guy

So there's a new kid in my class. He's from Kedah and he's a bit on the wild side. Just a little bit though I'm not so sure. He first came to school on Tuesday and my first impression on him was that he's one of those smart, quite, and collected kind of guy but unfortunately he's not.

He's loud, rude at some times and kind of, sort of... bad. But he's smart I guess. I sit in front of him with my friend. He was throwing unnecessary remarks at every single thing in the class and it was getting annoying after awhile that I felt like I want to switch places mirroring some of the boys in my class. Even my friend was forcing me to since she couldn't stand him anymore. But I pity him in a way.

Imagine if you're the new kid in some school far far away from the last school you studied at and all the students in your class despise you and ignore your being in that class. I personally would feel sad and hurt if this happened to me. Like seriously, a whole row of empty desks and chairs except my own? Isolation sucks.

Today my other friend and I had a tiny chat with him talking about his previous school and his 'brutal' way of making new friends. I guess he got a little understanding that how things work here are far different than his last school. So, we just have to wait and see whether he'll be able to adapt to this new lifestyle he's in.

P.S. There's loads of eye opening events going on around me nowadays. Is that a sign?
