SHUT UP, MR SEA GULL
Betty: So, where are you going?
Jack: I'm going to the dock later to order some French fries.
Betty: No, you misunderstood…I mean, what is the ultimate goal of your life?
Jack: Going to the dock and ordering some French fries. That's what we sea gulls do. Would you like some?
Betty: No, thank you. I understand. Goodbye.
Jack: Hey, where are you going? Don't leave me!
Betty: Wherever I'm going, I'm not ordering French fries. You have my words.
Jack: Stop! Betty! Listen to me! We sea gulls aren't the kind to have dreams. You see those people down there? They are “humans”, they are those in the world who have the duty to chase their dreams, to fly beyond the sky and dig underneath the ground….
Betty: Don't talk anymore. I don't want to listen! Their ships crack and oil leak into the ocean. Our friends are dead because of it! And no one said a sea gull must order French fries.
Jack: We sea gulls don't need a philosopher! Betty! Just come with me, and marry me, and we'll have baby gulls, and we sea gulls will never die out!
Betty: It's is nothing to do with extinction, Jack, I will marry a male who is willing to stop ordering French fries same as me. Stop dreaming, Jack. I won't marry you. And I don't even want to say goodbye to you.

AT THE DOCK
Peter: Jack, what's wrong?
Jack: Betty broke up with me.
Peter: No wonder.
Jack: I know I'm a loser. But Betty, Betty told me she's never going to order French fries any longer.
Peter: Pfft, She's sick. She's still a beauty.
Jack: I'm worried about her!
Peter: If she's an ugly widow I'll be so willing to kill her.
Emma: Hey, hi, what are you talking about?
(Emma is Peter's GF)
Peter: Oh, darling, you know Betty?
Emma: Of course I know her! She's got the best feathers in the world! And she's attracting loads of boys….Oh, Jack, I thought you were chasing her?
Jack: And she deserted me. She's crazy and she's sick. I want her back and marry her.
Emma: Oh, what happened?
Peter: She's mad, she gives up ordering French fries.
Emma: Oh my guld (=gull+god), she'll starve and die!
Jack: And now I've seen through her. Her beautiful feathers are meaningless as long as she's mad.
Bill: What? Who's mad?
Jack: My ex, Betty.
Emma: She hates French fries. That's hilarious.
Bill: That's ridiculous! She shan't be counted as a part of us….
Tom: Indeed.
Maria: She's a traitor.
(Tom and Maria are a couple and are very good at ordering French fries. Therefore, they are respected by the gulls)

BETTY'S JOURNEY
Betty met a pet cat at a beach. He was lying beside his owner, who was eating French fries.
Betty saw and smelt the fries. She felt hungry. But she promised that she'd never order them. She decided to chat with the cat. He was licking himself.
Betty: Hi, my name is Betty.
Owner: Shoo, shoo, sea gull, away from my fries!
Betty knows, this is what Jack called “human” who had responsibility to chase dreams. However this person in front of her seemed to be enjoying having a rest and doing nothing. She went aside, looking at the cat. He stopped and said:
Karl: Hello, I'm Karl. Why don't you eat fries?
Betty: I…Your owner stopped me.
Karl: Most sea gulls I met attack my owner directly. Then I'll stand out and protect him. You see, I'm big and strong. But why didn't you do that?
Betty: I….May I ask you a few questions first?
Karl felt happy facing such a wise sea gull, which is quite different from those aggressive ones.
Karl: Sure.
Betty: What is the ultimate goal of your life?
Karl: Seriously?
Betty: I'm not joking.
Karl: Well, I intend to eat fried fish for my entire life. (Betty: …) But I want to make my owner and myself happy. My owner taught me a few tricks. I can shake hands, roll over and say hello. I gain more fried fish by doing that. And my owner is happy and spends more time playing with me.
Betty: I'm not kept as a pet, not like you, I don't know whether I'm luckier than you. I… I just want to leave my home, I DON'T know where to go!
Karl: Oh Betty. Maybe you should go to the dock and order some French fries. But you shouldn't. Live on. Keep your own words. It doesn't matter. Now, go to the sea and catch some fish.
Betty: I….
Karl: What?
Betty: …understand.
…
"Look, a sea gull."
“What a beautiful one!”
“It's valuable.”

Where am I?
HUMAN LIFE
Betty: What are you going to do after school?
Ellie: I would go to the mall and have some afternoon tea. Then I'd fetch a blind box. I heard there is a new Molly series and they are very cute. I want one.
Betty: Where do you get your money?
Ellie: From my grandparents at the Spring Festival.
Betty: You mean red envelopes? I gave all that money to my parents…
Ellie: I don't understand a school wiz's life.
Betty: …
lunch break
Betty: Ellie, you know? That son of a b**** from class 1 came to disturb me again.
Ellie: …
Ms C: Betty, what did you say? Behave yourself! You are a GIRL!
Betty (think): Oh s***, I want to kill Ms C! I want to kill everyone in my class, especially Helen and Ms C! And Jay, and Linda, and Meek, and…I shouldn't have said those words.
Betty: I'm sorry, Ms C.
That day, after school, Ellie, Cherry and Candy and those, ugh, girls, went to the mall and enjoyed themselves. I went home with Helen, because we live close to each other, but my mother hates her dishonesty, and so do I. She is good at studying, and making teachers happy. I am also good at studying, even better than her, but I always make teachers angry. I was rebellious and quick-tempered. But, whatever happens, I'm going to study on, and study well. I don't know what the ultimate goal of my life really is, I just want to get rid of my primary school mates, and maybe enter a better school like HY. It'll be very hard for me, so I must study hard. I'm not going to order French fries.

THE LAST SCHOOL TRIP
Students: Oh, chips, hey hey hey, I'll take it.
Betty:….(don't argue with bitches)
“当我撕下笔记本中最后一页纸
当我放下心中那把道德做的尺
当我不再相信生而被赋予的使命
当我发现理想渺无声息的死……”
Helen: Oh my god, what song are you listening, Betty?
Betty: (switch to 平凡之路) I'm listening to 平凡之路.
Helen: No you aren't. (switch back) This song is so depressing, it'll make you upset, why'd you listen to it?! You should be healthy and optimistic…
Betty: WHY do you disturb me when I am listening to songs!
Helen (loudly): OH, WHAT DEPRESSING SONG BETTY IS LISTENING TO!
Ms C: ?! Betty, give your MP3 player to me.
(Helen gave it to Ms C)
Ms C: What? “leave my body to the universe to get away from human's sin”? What sin is it? Did we torture you? See, we are so kind and…
Betty: I want to defend myself. Firstly, choosing songs to listen is our own rights…
Ms C: But you are just a child! This kind of song shouldn't have been published…
Betty: Please don't cut me, Ms C. I think you should finish listening to this song, then evaluate it. Helen just straightly took my property----my MP3 player----away from me!
Helen: The fact was, Ms C, that Betty tried to hide that she was listening to such a depressing song. When I showed interest in the songs, she switched the MP3 player to 平凡之路. You can see, she was lying to me.
Ms C: Betty, we taught you to be honest.
Betty: Oh please stop! Why'd you listen to that false and fake idiot's empty words instead of my reasonable explanations!
Ms C: You insulted your classmates. I warn you.
Betty: She is worth insulting! I think you even lose your basic ration, Ms C. And being disturbed for so many times, I'm going to continue my reasoning. Ms C and Helen, I think you are not respecting me when I'm talking. I strongly suggest you listen to this song first. It said: 当全民都参与着粉饰太平. Do you think Helen was just not wanting me to get depressed? No, she wasn't. By the way, it is never necessary for us to be optimistic every minute and every second. Beneath the skin of happiness, evilness and dishonesty are the bones. Helen is a guilty person. I clearly remember when we were having Art class when we are in Grade 3, she drew a picture of the naked and dead Arts teacher. The teacher saw her and criticized her. And she mumbled, “I want to kill Ms C.” I was sitting beside her so I heard it very clearly. The teacher asked her what she said. She answered, “I like the lessons Ms C taught.” Later, when I was crying for this matter, Helen came and told me crying on such a cold winter day will make my skin rough. Oh damn, why shall I care for my skin when a guilty student hadn't been punished! But I said nothing. I tolerated one and another evil things she did. But now that we are all going to graduate and say goodbye, I have nothing to be shame for. Some students in this bus hang out with friends in the mall instead of do homework after school. Some students wrote “I played PUBG at my birthday” in their English composition. Some students are bullied by others just because their names sounds like “pig”. Why don't you punish them? Oh, I see, because they are all good at pleasing you, but they are still children, like you once said. |
