The story I’m going to tell happened when I was an eighth grader. When I was about to adapt to my first new class in Taipei, I perceived something unuasul.
I found that some of my new classmates would just ignore the teacher who was talking on the platform, and sometimes even talked back to the teacher. At the beginning I thought maybe they had conflicts with that teacher previously, so they appeared aggressive to that teacher. But after a few classes, they treated all the teachers impolite. What’s worse, these unfriendly classmates formed their own group and played jokes on those who they disliked. Whenever we were during class or taking a break, they just teased and humiliated a poor person at the back of the class. Therefore, everyone was afraid to be the next target.
In the next semester, we couldn’t endure them anymore! We decided to move our seats to the front of the classroom, so that we could listen to the teacher attentively instead of their teasing. On the other hand, they placed themselves at the back rows and turned off their light all day. Then claimed they were the” Evening Class”. Though they kept interfering with class, we just appeared indifferent to their childish behavior.
With a new and strict homeroom, they were separated into different classes. Those times were difficult to me, but with the amicable friends accompanying me and the rest of our classmates’ unity, we overcame it altogether.
