i have a friend who is also my classmate, she is really competitive but she is not one of the top scorers in my school. what really annoys me is that whenever i sit next in class, she will tend to look at any extra things taht i've noted down from the explanation by the tch. i dont mind her looking but the weirdest thing is that when i look back at hers she would stare right into my eyes (like why r u loooking at mine?!!) and thats not all, when i sat a few seats away from her, she'll look at me occasionally to see what i am actly doing.

 Stare back her-lah!  As for me, if I see someone wrote something (and I didn't), subconsciously I would think that could be quite an important information that I might have missed out. Usually I would ask her/his permission to see what she/he has jolted down.  Aha another kiasu fella.

Sometimes I peek at people's book too. When they catch me peeking, I would turn my head around and stare at my book. Hahaha kiasu-ism overload!  Well, most students (those who care) would be kiasu to a certain extent.

What happens most of the time is:
A: Hey how was that quiz/test? B: Ahh I did badly la, I don't know how to answer many of the questions. Results: B scored better than A. If you did ok, just say so, don't have to hide your capabilities. Did this happen to you before?
