why i did it,

Do you do what's morally right and ruin everything for everyone, or do you turn your back against the truth and pretend you heard and saw nothing so that everyone could be happy not ever knowing the truth?

I've heard form a girl from 2S that some of the people who signed the petition were forced to. That was never our intention.

The full story: The things I couldn't mention earlier, it was the petition, to be specific the 2t petition.

I wrote it, I initiated it but now let me state why I did it:

Rachel Lok: She's friendly and nice and come to think of it, I even slept in the same tent as her. I don't hate her, loathe her or anything, but I just feel inside of me, that she's just not suited for the job as class chairperson. I just don't find she's responsible enough and hence the petition was started.

It was never my intention to add Yin Hui to the petition, I added her only because of the students option.

*names have been changed to protect them against public scrutiny.

It all happened on a free period, 2 weeks ago on a Tuesday, it was a free period and we were supposed to be organizing family night. But instead of doing just that, the 2 chairpersons slacked and did nothing while many girls told them to do something about it but they just didn't listen till much later when half the period was gone.

During that period of time *June and the rest of us including *Tess, Angeline and me were sitting at the back of class. It was during this time that June suggest about writing a petition and Angeline told me to do it.

I set about doing it, it was however supposed to be a letter at first. I mistakenly left it in my textbook (the draft copy) and it fell out somehow on Wednesday. After Mrs Chen left the class, the same problem happened and I set about looking for my draft, however I couldn't find it and set about doing a new one.

Just then *Anne and *Yvette came from outside class but it was too late and Anne saw what I was writing, then they told me something that feared me: They had found my draft but had seen the "Dear Mrs Chen" written on the front part and passed it to Mrs Chen just now.

Soon Yin Hui found out because I made a damned mistake during Guides and *Dora had asked me about it because she heard from Yvette and wanted to sign it and quizzed me about it, being the unobservant person I was, I had forgotten that Yin Hui's patrol was in front, then *Eunice turned around and told me "next time look before you speak"

After I got home, Eunice called me to dissuade me about adding Yin Hui's name but it was too late, I told her that I was also reluctant to add in Yin Hui's name but I was just complying with what that the others wanted and well, majority won. I even said that I wasn't going to sign (but though in the end I did because I heard from many people that Yin Hui was pressing *Lauren for details and even going to the extent of bullying her and pushing her around. So I signed.).

Though later on an ardent supporter of the petition Anne wanted to pull out because of pressure from *Nicole who was sitting next to her, though in the end Anne still went ahead as planned.

We submitted the petition on (I think) Tuesday morning, maybe earlier with about 17 signatures on each side though whoever signed for Yin Hui didn't necessarily sign for Rachel, vice versa.

Yesterday, during English, Mrs Soo and Mrs Chen came to class and asked to see all who signed the petition, during that time the 17 of us went out and explained why we signed it.

When we came back to class, the tension was so bloody think and as Angeline put it: "you could cut it with a knife." No one spoke and finally Mrs Soo broke the silence.

Later afterwards Mrs Chen and Mrs Soo brought out Rachel and Yin Hui to have a talk with them.

Rachel I know is fine and doesn't seem to hold any grudge against me at all, she's gotten more responsible I can already see that, however it is Yin Hui that concern me the most.

After school she met up with her mother and proceeded to tell her all that happened, fine with us. It's normal, but one thing on her mother's part that makes me so pissed.

If I was in the wrong and told me parents how my classmates had "wronged" me they would have SCOLDED ME INSTEAD, not sympathized with me.

Instead when I came down later with Angeline with our umbrellas for the school trip, out of the girls we had left just moments ago 3 were crying.

Those three were Lauren, Tess and Nicole though I'm not sure why Nicole was even crying.

We couldn't figure out what happened but we soon found out, turns out her mother had walked by and started at the whole group of them with her eyes shooting daggers at them. With the kind of look that makes me want to go up to people and slap them silly.

You daughter was in the wrong and her friends are trying to change that, can you not see that they were trying to help her?

Last year I remember Yin Hui collapsing during PE because she suddenly had this great pain.

She was taken home by her mother and after we returned from computer studies, it was written on the whiteboard by Yinling that she had appendicitis and had to have an operation. When Tess saw it she broke out crying immediately. While many rushed to comfort her.

Barely one year later, the girls who bloody CARE about Yin Hui the most are being hated by her because they want her to revert back to her old self?

She might not realize it, but she's headed on a self destructive streak on social terms. All her friends are leaving her because she's gotten so proud, she's basically is just upsetting everyone.

Heck, I'm not even close to her yet I can see that's she's changed drastically and according to *Fiona she even sucks up to her PL, because she wants to be recommended for become PL next time.

Her friends signed the petition not because they hate her, it's because they want her to change, back to her old self, it's their silent plea.

I'm not even her friend, yet I'm speaking up for her despite the fact we can't stand to be left alone in the same room together alone, why? Because no one deserves to go through life or even school with no true friends.

And according to *Diana and Anne, new of the petition has spread like wildfire through the entire level and now I even heard 2*something* is planning to overthrow their chairperson too.
