Jump!

This is a pretty sad post as u can see from the sepia-styled picture of one of my statistics tutorial.. As u see, the tutorial haven even start, yet the first few rows have already been filled.. Of coz there has to be certain incentives for ppl (esp singaporeans) to behave like this n to complete the picture, i'd be showing a video of the first minute of the tutorial..

As u can see in the clip, the guy in blue (nicknamed jumper) was gettin ready to stand up before the tutor gives the cue to go.. After the cue is given, a few of the first row students started making their way down to receive the markers to present tutorial answers on the board.. (If u had not observed) The jumper forces the guy in green to shift over to qn1 so that he can do qn2.. Apparently qn2 is an easier qn.. This is a repeat of wat happened last week when my fren ambrose was reluctantly pushed to another qn by the unfrenly gestures of the jumper..

Now y do we call him jumper? We expected him to jump to the front from the 3rd row this week since he jumped the previous week.. However, since the first row is all filled, there's no way he could jump down.. So he can only make for the dash to present his desired qn..

To make things worse..

He is still writing when others have get over n done with presentin their solutions despite the relatively lower difficulty of his qn compared to the others.. (Yes, this happened last week too)

To completely fill in the puzzle, the tutorial makes up 5% of the overall grade.. N to show kiasuism at its very best, ppl r doing such things to vie for the 5%.. The thing is around half the class is made up of international students.. (I wonder how kiasuism is stereotypically linked to uniquely singaporean) We highly suspect the jumper is a non-singaporean.. Ironically, this doesnt happen to other tutorials i have been.. I guess we r all pretty desperate for the 5% to pass..

Anyways, no offence to Mr.jumper.. U shd be laughing at your own acts if u happen to see this clip..
