Much is expected from YOU .

Everyday in school , we have our FC or the flag ceremony . It starts at exactly 7am . And the routine of the Harrellians is to go down to the covered court once they've heard the bell . Today , we did what we were already accustomed to . Once the bell rang , the elementary students was the first to go down . Us highschool students were always the last to go down . But to our shock , the elementary students went back . And they told us that we will have our FC in our respective classrooms . Fine . The FC in our classrooms were done through the PA system . The admin would pick students to lead the FC . Poor Harrellians . Their voices would be famous . Only their voices . But not them . The FC starts with the prayer . Then the National Anthem . And the Panatang Makabayan . Harrellian's Creed , Harrell Horne Hymn and finally , " Goodmorning and Godbless You Ma'am ______ !" I wish our FC today was as flawless as the plan . We didn't hear the leaders of the FC so we followed ourselves . Once the Harrellian's Creed was ongoing , we heard a voice . Familiar . Scary . Once we heard the voice , we all knew at once that we were in trouble . Our hair on the backs raising . Then the voice spoke " Go down .!!!! You go down .!!! You have your FC downstairs .!!! GO .!!! " We all knew what that meant . Uh-oh .! We did something wrong again . When all of us got downstairs , we started the FC again . From the top . Then we heard the voice from the 2nd floor , saying " Stop .! Stop that .!" She was pointing to us . And we could see the anger in her eyes . I was personally afraid . We stopped . ( We didn't want to get in any more trouble than we were in now .) Then she scolded us . I was in front . She asked us who were those three boys who were caught in the Lewis (the other section of the third year) . We all looked at the back . We knew which group to blame . They were always the one to blame . Then someone raised their hand . The other two came after . Then she said that the three of them must go to evolutionhero and tell him that they will not attend class 'coz they don't know how to follow the rules . What .?! Then she scolded us even more . The most hurting words she have said are only five little words . "Much is expected from you ." That hurt .! Especially for us awardees , the president of the class , and the SBO Officers . We were the ones she was blaming . We have superiority complex accdg . to her . And we weren't living up to the role of being an awardee . We were only awardees when it comes to academics . We were not wholistic . Stop .! I was already about to cry when she cut her nagging short and told us to proceed to the mezzanine , to the prayer room . She told us to reflect there for 30 minutes . Great . At first , she was guarding us at the door . but she left for , I think , 3 minutes .? And my friend , violetsmarts , the president of the class sat in front and talked to all of us . In the middle of her talking , she burst out into tears . I also bursted into tears . (It's hard to keep what you feel you know) I was super affected because I was also an awardee . The girl awardees cried . The boys were staying strong . Trying not to show that they are also deeply affected and deeply hurt by what we had just heard . We were not the ones doing something wrong . But still , we were the one who's more blamed than the others . We cried until the sound of the door opening reached our ears . She was back . And it was time to go back to our classroom . It was located in the 3rd floor and we'd have to pass 1 floor before we could reach the classroom . Trying hard to hide what had just happened , we quickly wiped our tears and pretended and acted as if nothing went wrong . And for the whole day , we kept in mind , us , the awardees , kept in mind those 5 words . And the most hurtful word of all . Expect .!
