Hey all, Long Time no see/talk!
Hahaha i clicked on this link out of the blue and realised that i of all people shouldn't be letting this blog die after putting in so much effort to decorate it. And i'm not biased okay, my own blog is dying too. HAHA. Thanks, Filbert for attempting to post often.

Anyway, Yup, replying the tags, We can have a 4bn outing during the June Hols but i won't be free for the first 2 weeks because i'll be in England on a Literature trip. We can do the usuals

1. BBQ at Munwee's
2. Movie (hopefully at Vivo so that we can go to the rooftop and camwhore)
3. Sentosa (luge ride!!!!)
4. Cycling at ECP? HAHA
5. Going back to CCHMS (but no point because they won't be having classes - no teachers to visit)

Of course the list isn't exhaustive but for a start, you peeps can tag and comment about it!


I thought it would be quite fun to write a post about my current JC. i hope everyone can participate and join in: Post an Entry about your Current Junior College's CULTURE. (of course must be different from CCHMS lah). It'll be kinda like sharing our experiences and our life after CCHMS, and perhaps it adds on to our general knowledge of other schools. HAHA

Raffles Junior College's culture

1. is pretty much English, English and more English. Even the Chinese scholars don't reek of a Chinese accent when they speak in English
2. And on that note, RJ IS FULL OF INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARS! Vietnamese, Indian, Polish, Chinese (duh), Philippino (how to spell? HAHA), Indonesian...
   
3. almost ALL girls fold up their sleeves like this:



4. And as you can see, we have a TKS (Tanjong Katong Sec)-like skirt. SO SECONDARY SCHOOL. RAHHH I WANT A STRAIGHT SKIRT.
5. Almost all boys wear a black belt as an accessory. My PW group mate has a belt buckle in the shape of a huge STAR. HAHA rocker sia
6. Rj people like to use the Dialect word, 'Zao'. like, 'Go'. using it in a normal everyday sentence, 'eh, where did she zao off to?' =.= sounds awful hor.
7. You know the sarcastic 'Yeah, Right'? In Rj, it is 'I'm SURE lah.' They even have this special Tone for it.
   
8. Volleyball is of very low standing
9. Rafflesians HATE people from ACSI and Hwa Chong. Especially now, when it's the Sports season and somehow it is almost always these two schools pitting against Raffles in the finals. (e.g. Softball, Basketball, Rugby, Waterpolo, Cricket, etc.)
10. This is actually quite fun. the Raffles houses are Moor Tarbet (MT), Morrison Richardson (MR), Buckle Buckley (BB), Bayley Waddle (BW), Hadley Hullet (HH). The different houses like to have their own House days (can have more than 1 day per year) then everyone from a particular house can wear their house tees on that day! Okay fine it doesn't sound that special but it's like, during flag raising on house days, you can see the parade square dotted with a particular colour. coool
11. As Raffles Institution is just next to Rj, you can often see little boys from RI running over to our canteen or 7-eleven in the campus to buy our food or instant noodles and KOPE OUR SEATS! (naughty little boys!)
12. We have a 5 minute break between every lesson because the campus is too big; there has to be allowance for walking time. HAHA
13. THEY ARE SO BLOODY CHILDISH! There's a Main canteen where majority of the students go, then a smaller canteen off the Main canteen which they call the Arts canteen for the minority of the population - Arts students - to eat. Nah i know nobody really goes according to it but the fact that they even call it the Arts canteen...
1. There are also CCA tables in the canteen, like the most famous RUGBY table, which i was told, that if you are a guy and you sit there, Ruggers will pick a fight with you, while if you are a girl, they will ask you to piss off (nicely) HAHA
2. There's also a Hockey table, where all the players stash their sticks and equipment under the table during season
3. A Waterpolo + Softball table because there's an alliance between the two CCAs. CHILDISH RIGHT!
4. As usual, there isn't any Volleyball table because we are 'low class'.
   

HAHA i can't think of any more at the moment. Any other Rafflesian is welcome to add on to the list! Hope you guys liked this post and pleeease, participate in the 'train' of JC culture entries!

Cya!
