A New End and a New Start


To all Choueifatis and Ex-Choueifatis. I would like to apologize for my increadibly long absence. To those of you who know I'm sure you'll understand. I won't be able to continue the website. Unfortunately the higher ups (The really higher ups) discovered my real identity and did not take to kindly to my writing. I only felt it necessary that I did not end this so abruptly. So I shall write this in a certain frame of detail.
After my identity was discovered. I went through the whole nine yards and SABIS spared nothing when it came to dragging me. They said that if I apologised in front of the school and on the site than I would be allowed to return for the next academic year. After continuous pressure put by the school on my parents. I apologised in front of the entire classroom for a start. Those of you who were in the room at the time know how I truely felt.
I understand that SABIS felt threatened. But why would you refuse to deal with it? and why did you have to go and sink so low as to scare the hell out of both my parents. I will be frank and say thanks allot for putting me through that shit. You people had me put on anti-depressants for a while because of it. Are you satisfied?
Apart from that, I really bare no serious grudge. Yes I got kicked out but I don't really see this as the end of my world. I'm going to another school in another country. And I'm going to be really happy because there will be no more annoyances there that I usually faced from SABIS on a daily basis. Pompous supervisors, AMS's, dreadful acting by those above. All gone. And I am so happy.
There is one thing I will miss in Choueifat. And that's the students. Regardless of how smart or stupid there was a certain sense of unity that was shared by a common dislike of the same things. I will also miss the increadible conversations I had with them during class and increadibly interesting things we came up with to pass time, such as the human battering ram.
I know some of you will be sad to see the site will have to stop being updated. But listen when I say that if you have any grievances to share. You know what to do. I wish you all the best in life, don't you dare feel bad for me because nothing bad really happned.
Love, KyoDes
P.S. To a Maastrichan and a Donbassan. I miss you both badly. I'm still south and I'd love to hear from you.

Below Fifteen? Idiot!


Final Week (Bah!) is now over. In a move of sheer sadism. Choueifat thinks that after days of scaring the hell out of most of us, and after hours of shoving in whatever we can from the text books and tearing our hair out only to get screwed over in the actual exams. SABIS thinks we can revert to a normal school week again, with a weekly as the extra kick in the ribs. But that's not what is really ticking me off today. Recently Choueifat has decided to post more degrading bits of "Brobaganda" around the schools. It's an ironically white piece of paper that states in colourful grey letters in the background "78% SMART". And with full pomposity tries to convince those of us who are moronic enough to believe it, that if you get below an average of 15, than you are either A)Lazy, B) You don't know how to study or C)Stupid. Well it doesn't really say stupid, but it does a really bad job of sugarcoating what it really means. In a desperate attempt to try and pass themselves off as the true Messiahs, they offer after school study sessions, where students are forced against their own will to teach students who would rather not be there, to say the least. It's bad enough we already have the worst school hours for not just any school in the Middle East, but for any school in the World. Horrid as that may seem, what really ticks me off that that they continue to butcher people up inside by making them feel worse off than they already are. But then again it's one of the many lessons in life taught by The G-Man. It all makes sense to him. The crappier you feel, the more inclined you are to do better in life. But then again, I'm sure history has proven that the only way that Einstein, Homer, Pythagoras, Da Vinci, Ghandi, Christ and Mozart all got to where they were by getting good marks on their AMS's and scoring above fifteen on their term finals. I'm sure the butchering of self-esteem, pride and confidence all came as an added perk. Oh, lest I forget ,having their dreams shattered for a fee too. This all goes to ratify a firm opinion I have for SABIS. Their latest scheme reminds me of a quote

"Don't worry, we're only here to help you. The red hot poker's will do you good"

So What's Your Story?

Hey Everyone

I don't know if you've all noticed, but I haven't written here for about a year. KyoDes had taken over and has since done a hell of a job with the site. It's been steadily growing every month.

Lately, we've been receiving a few more e-mails and comments, mainly about the horror stories they've been through as a Choueifati student or staff member. We think that you should hear these tales of torture and despair, so we've started a new segment of our blog called "So What's Your Story", where we select a story e-mailed to us and post it up. We may have to censor certain parts, but you should be able to get the gist of it. Speaking of which, friends, please try to make your writing objective so that we are taken seriously.

To submit a story, simply e-mail it to
justachoueifati@gmail.com

We look forward to your e-mails. Get it off your chest!

Is Something Missing?


Hello, one and all. I know It's been a long time. I could go on and on about all the reasons why I didn't continue this blog after New Year's, or at least past Christmas. But to make a long story really short. I had an excellent holiday. And a somewhat bearable reorientation.

Now on to the main part. SABIS still continues to enforce a draconian system of education. Including with the newly enforced Homework Exams. They have now warned us that these pointless doodles count so much that if we we're to be absent for one of them, we would be "forced" to do them in the summer. So we apparently need to be in school everyday, regardless of weather we have externals to do, or family duties, or even matters of life and death. SABIS uber alles. Guess they really didn't like it when no one bothered showing up during the holidays. I guess they managed to overlook the fact that IT WAS A CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEARS HOLIDAY!, and that you can't inform people two days before and expect them to cancel plans set months in advance. You are not worthy, never were, never will.

On the light hearted side of things. Reports are telling me that a theatrical thesbian in Dubai has decided to put on the famous musical "The King And I" I love musicals and the theatre, and I support any attempt to break SABIS into the arts. But I'm not gonna state further more and I am merely going to say. Good Luck, you're going to need it.

Finally, a Dubai loving boob. Who goes by the username of Leitmanp on Wikipedia, keeps removing the link to my page from the wiki article on Choueifat Schools. We've tried altering it, but because he is a not so prominent Wikipedia editor, he's managed to set a robot on the page so that any attempts to change it back to its usually semi-truthful form results in a reverse within a few minutes. I was alerted to this vile act of censorship by a friend. And I ask that those of you who wish to have what I write be noticed by the large number of Choueifat hopefuls, contact this boy and assure him that this is all for a good cause.

Farewell, and have a Happy Valentine's Day.
