Differences Part Two!

Well after Part One I said there would be a continuation.. and here it is, albeit a little late. You can't exactly blame me though, I spent Thursday spraining another side of my ankle and rehearsing late into the night.. Friday was spent racing with the 157 to Toa Payoh Sports Hall (to prove that public transport is not necessarily the fastest way) and Saturday was the birthday of YL so I just had to do a special on him.

Now that it's Sunday and when I start getting bored, I decided to continue exploring the differences in RI and RJ. Something which I miss in RI. The second thing is:

2. CHANGING IN CLASS/CORRIDORS
You didn't read it wrongly - changing in class made up a huge part of my RI life - like take every PE lesson and 5 minutes of changing in class. For four years. That makes up a huge chunk of school life. And it saves up a lot of time unlike in RJC when you have to walk all the way to the toilet just to change up for PE. How stupid is that now. Of course although it is stupid, it is being done for impractical reasons. So don't get me wrong, I'll still change in the toilets now. Only that I find RI life so much easier and more convenient.

The advantages of changing in class is not only limited to saving of time and convenience, there is also the facilitation of stripping. Coming from a class of excellent strippers (ie people who strip others on their birthdays or simply for the heck of it), I understand this point very well. PE lessons are used as an avenue to get your clothes off - and when YOU get your clothes off and are about to get another set of clothes on, a bunch of idiots might decide to make it stay off. I'd like to clarify at this point of time that I am not a stripper. I am merely an innocent bystander who's enjoying all the fun going on.

And now where's the fun? You can't strip anyone in the toilet because it's too dirty. What's more, it's not very nice to stay long in a place where there's a stench. Oh and plus there's no excitement of female teachers butting into the males' toilet suddenly. Unlike RI where teachers still had the right to come into class to watch boys change. I'm not suggesting that they did it on purpose, but it's happened before.

This is going out to those boys still in RI. You'd better chair-lock your doors and tape the glass windows. Ahem.

As for changing in corridors, that might not seem like a social norm though people do carry it out at times in desperate measures. Like if PE is before recess, and you get some fierce teacher after recess who simply won't tolerate you coming into class in PE.. a speedy change of clothes is required. Now I know some of you might be very amused and skeptical about this, but it is indeed a way of life in RI.

I'm not saying that I do it, but I'm not saying that I don't either. But as many people have said, "it's okay to offend as long as you don't get caught", it's okay to change in the corridor so long you don't get caught. Anyway it isn't an offence, check RI's rules and regulations and you'll find that I'm speaking the truth.

Basically in RI you can change anywhere that is remotely remote and where female teachers can't see you. The Air Rifle Range just beneath the canteen is excellent for those whom need a change of clothes after CCA. It's an offence to go out of school in PE, which in my opinion is bloody stupid of the RIPB, but then again when you have had enough demerit points to last you a lifetime you try to avoid getting booked again. So yes. Even with RIPB's stupidity - just conform to it sometimes.

In any case, it's now almost dinnertime and I'm famished. In fact, I think I'm late for dinner so you'd just wait for the third reason of what do I miss in RI to come out. This might be kind of boring so I might break the monotony once or twice with an irrelevant random topic - but because of my utmost respect for my alma mater, I must make these little emo posts once in a while.

By the way I read that Xiaxue the ***** has like 20k hits a day. And she's earning loads of money for it. Well so maybe in 2 days she'll get the number of hits that TCS gets in like, 8.5 months? Damn I feel so discouraged, perhaps YL the chiobu should put up his own chio picture so more old cheekopeks will get attracted to come visit our blog. In fact, I think I could find a picture to upload if not for YL's violent protestations.

Therefore, I'm really sorry to announce to all our readers that no, you won't be seeing YL's oh-so-chio picture. And for those who still read Xiaxue, stop reading her trash. Read mine. Because unlike her, I'm not out there for the money, I'm out there to write trash. Okay I'm talking rubbish.

Now I have to go and eat.
