JC 101

Dummy's (express) Guide to Surviving JC
(at least for mine)

Coming into school alone or planning to get to junior college?
Here's some nifty tips to get you going.

1. Be cool
Don't try to be cool, don't act cool, just be it.
But if you can't, just don't bother. Rather not be a poser.

2. Take up a sport
Chicks dig it, man. Besides, it's cool to be wearing the school colours.
To top it up, you'll look good too, hehe.

3. Develop a talent
Noone wants a pure academic anymore. You gotta be more than just a student.
You can't lose out on experience to those nuts at the poly you know.

4. Know the right people
Not really to be popular (yeah right), but to get to know even more people.
If you know someone who knows ten others, you know eleven people already.

5. Get yourself known
It's sad, but popularity is still a major factor in college.
Not just for social reasons, but for other reasons as well.
You'll need it to even get into the students' council.
Out of ideas? Just do a publicity stunt.

6. Never get broke
When you're popular (or not), you're bound to get invitations to a million outings.
Unless you have unlimited fundings, I suggest you plan your expenditure.
But if you find yourself broke, good luck.

7. Bring all sorts of attire
Hey, let's go to the gym! You'd get that at any college.
Hey, let's go swimming! That's harder to dress up for, or rather, dress down.
There's a million and one things to do at school, and even after that.
You don't want to change for swimming and find out that you're just wearing your birthday suit.

8. Master digression
A most useful art. With such colourful people in the school, you're soon to run out of things to flaunt.
Top marks in class still can't beat the jaguar your friend came to school in.
Could save you from social fatality.

9. Learn how to dodge
The discipline master could pick out offences you'd never realise in a million years.
That could set you back two hours in the afternoon.
Best to just avoid that.

10. Get close to your class (and your OG)
They'll be like your family during your stay at the school.
You'll never run out of people to sit with during lunch or go out with after school.
Or borrow notes from when you're taking a break during lectures.

Forbidden Files #04 - Behind the Eagle Dragon's Roar

Happy new year guys! It's been too long since I blogged, and longer still since my last exposé. So I thought of kicking off the year with one, and also something that pertains a little closer to me. There you have it, enjoy.

Forbidden Files #04 - Behind the Eagle Dragon's Roar
An exposé by Seraphim

**********************************************************************

On the morning of 3rd January 2006, I awoke with very blurred vision after not waking up so early in the morning for months. That day I wore my colour of blue, without the glitter and silk, though how I missed those on me. The atmosphere outside was just as how I remembered it the last time I went out to school. It was a little colder this time, with the frequent rain. Along the way, I met my brothers in blue, heading towards others of our colour. It was a new year, a new term at school, and all was like how it used to be.

That is not entirely true though. While those whom I met in blue were heading off to one destination, I was off to another. In the same colour, I bore a different badge. One shining with a mythical creature with the body of a dragon, eagle's wings and the head of a lion. A creature belonging to a family with a most proud heritage. That, was the badge I bore.

When one walks through the grounds underneath the red, yellow and blue banner, one can tell the proud history that accumulated at the school. As honourable as it is, the students there seem to take on a different image in the eyes of the outsiders. If you know what I'm talking about, you should know what they are called. If you don't, gee get a brain and look around for the good JCs. To put it simply, students there are known as arrogant snobs.

Is that even true? After having some first hand experience there myself, I don't see how that can be so. Okay, maybe that's a little true. Slightly more. Okay okay, it's a quite true... On a more serious note, it's surprising how such a rumour even sprouted. Shocking, but true.

The school's history stands proud with a very impressive CCA record, in the achievement of sports, excellence of performing arts and reputation of the clubs and societies. Overall, the school has a positive front to the public.

Perhaps this rumour sprouted from jealousy, as what I have found the seniors to claim. Not jealousy of the school's achievements, as that would have obviously made them arrogant anyway, but of the school's spirit. There, there is a very strong sense of culture and identity amongst the students. A sense of belonging so strong it is like an everylasting flame in the hearts of every students. None is shameful to bear the badge and shout the school's name. That is the fiery passion they have for the school.

Personally, I would really dismiss the rumour. I can't think of another explaination or excuse to it. That is just the only reason for it, nothing else. It's as simple as that.

Maybe the rumour is true, or maybe not. That is up to you.

I hope that's a good enough article to start off the year and continue my 'highly acclaimed' Forbidden Files series. For those in JCs, hope you guys had a wonderful orientation. For those not, SUCK-ERS!

Oh, and my OG ROCKS!!!! We are gonna send a probe to Uranus!
