2001-2004: Chung Cheng High School (Main).

Lessons are kind of intensive as is expected of an autonomous school (in Singapore, there are three kinds of school, private, autonomous, and public aka "neighbourhood" schools, and usually this is the prevalent order that decides the quality of schools from best to worst.), and in our first and second years we're taught Chinese Calligraphy. If you ask me to pick a brush to write something, though, all I can say is I still suck at Chinese Calligraphy.

In the third and fourth years, unless you belong to the lowest percentile of students, you will be asked to take up Higher Chinese which is basically a more text-intensive course. The meaning of language is kind of lost here though as everyone mugs to tackle the papers, not appreciate the language. The common shortfall of Singaporean education, as always.

-Removes Chung Cheng (Main) from target list-


My school's pretty basic,
Bad Food
Blue uneven lines on a white shirt as uniform (making uneven checkers)
Fail CCAs

My principal for the 1st 3 years always stayed in the office, not doing much.
The next 3 years was changed, the new principal wants to pull up the standard of the whole school. (Primary School Leaving Exam can pull it up, and this year its my year. :?

Best Achievements
A "Rainbow Club" for foundation pupils invented a motorised wheelchair a few years ago. Its being used by someone but i dont know who

We have a autism pupil. To say the truth, his *caugh*problem*caugh* has weakened much too. Hes pretty regular with the others now.

Our Racial dance (Chinese, Malay, Tamil) gets a gold or silver every Singapore Youth Festival

Yeah thats it.

I moved to my mothers new house at the start of the second semester for school. (Originally lived with my now deceased Grandmother)

The school has ~1000, relatively small amount considering it is the only High School in the entire city. (Population ~80k)

1st block: (8:45-10:15) Foods, I cook stuff and eat it, it generally makes me late for second block.

2nd block: (10:15-11:45) Work Experience. I grab what I need from my locker after class and run across two fields, while jumping a fence to where I work.

LUNCH (11:45-12:36) I go home, usually sit on the PC instead of eating.

3rd block. (12:30-2:05) Media Productions, I sit on another PC either doing useless research projects or editing movies I recorded.

4th block (2:05-3:38) See 2nd Block.

Fridays are short days: 8:45-2:15

Even though I am at this school for half a year, I hate it, my other High School that I was attended before this was far superior, excluding the addition of every person I know. I'm glad I graduate this year.

Ok, ma school, first, the website

http://www.shatincollege.edu.hk

Now for some brief history

*Clears throat*

Shatin College is open on 1982, it was a rainy day that day (a typhoon number 3 was on), it was a small extension in the KGV school. Initially, there was less than 100 students. Now, in 2009, there is around 1,200 students and just around 60 full time staff.

The school itself is made out of 4 blocks. Block 1 is the oldest and the smallest. On the ground floor, it contains the EAL classrooms and offices (there were some y9 who had sex on this floor, no lies here), 1st contains English classroom, 2nd Humanity Classroom, 3rd Languages, 4th Mathematics and one Biology Lab. The 2nd Block was finished at around 1990, on the ground floor, it contains DT rooms, 1st floor is Staff Room, 2nd is Library, 3rd contains the Senior School room and also Economics room, 4th and 5th contains science lab. 3rd block is finished on ~1995, ground floor contains Cafeteria, 1st contains Art Lab, 2nd is more art, 3rd is the IT labs, 4th is humanities IT room (all laptops are preloaded with CS 1.6 :), 5th is Music Lab and 6th is the Drama. The 4th Block, more commonly known as sports complex, is finished on 2002. It contains a 25m standard swimming pool, a multi-funtion sports hall and an astro-turf.

Shatin College used to follow the A level and O level shit, now we follow the GCSE and IB.

Enough of that

Our timetable system

1.15-2.05 (Lunch break)
2.05-3.20 (4th Period)
All students must leave school before 4.30 unless supervised by staff

Most of the students in SC are Chinese nationality.

Any Questions?

Name: St. Augustine Catholic High School

*School History*
My school was just built there.... There's no real history to it.

I go to school on Mon-Fri.

*Schedule*
7:30? - 8:20 | Gathering at school
8:20 - 8:30 | Announcements
8:30 - 9:45 | 1st period
9:50 - 11:10 | 2nd period
11:10 - 11:55 | Lunch
11:55 - 1:15 | 3rd period
1:20 - 2:30 | 4th period

Our school uses a two day cycle. On day two's, 4th period and 3rd period get swapped. We have 3 lunches. The above is based on a Lunch A schedule. Lunch B starts at 11:55; the have half of 3rd period before lunch (but nobody has Lunch B). Lunch C is at 12:35, and they have all of 3rd period before lunch.

*Subjects*
.... Everything.

Our school has a laptop program which I'm in (which is why I'm playing osu!). The laptop students have a slightly higher expectation, however the baseline is the same as Academic programs which is 65 (ewww). Laptop students a recommended to keep an above 70 average to stay in the laptop program. There's the Applied class which has standards of 50-65. There's also Open which applies to all classes (including Academic/Laptop) which is basically Applied. Also, if you're lower than 50, then you get to go in Locally Developed.

*Summer School* (YAY)
8:30 - 9:00 | Announcements/Beginning of day
9:00 - 10:00 | Class
10:00 - 10:15 | Break
10:15 - 11:30 | Class
11:30 - 12:10 | Lunch
12:10 - 1:30 | Class
1:30 - 1:45 | Break
1:45 - 3:10 | Class

BTW you only get one subject for summer school so it's the same all day long (which is why we get breaks recess). However some courses like mine, which is Civics only last for two weeks and count for 0.5 credits. Civics goes along with Career Studies which I'll be having for the next two weeks to complete that half credit. However, there are also "half courses" for those who've failed in regular school, in order to get their credit back.

Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts
http://www.mcla.edu

Major: Fine and Performing Arts
Concentration: Music
Focus: Composition

Info/History:

"The Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts (MCLA) is a public, residential, liberal arts college that offers both undergraduate and graduate programs. It is a member of the Council of Public Liberal Arts Colleges and is located in North Adams, Massachusetts. Originally established as part of the state's normal school system for training teachers, it now offers a variety of programs leading to Bachelor of Science and Arts degrees, as well as a Master of Education track. MCLA is the smallest college in the state system."

"MCLA was founded in 1894 as North Adams Normal School, and it offered first instruction at post-secondary level three years later. In 1932, North Adams Normal School became State Teachers College of North Adams. Along with the name change, it added an upper-division curriculum and awarded first degree (baccalaureate). Four years later, the school instituted an upper-graduate program. In 1960, the college changed its name to North Adams State College and, later in 1997, to Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, the latter name being reflective of specialty school status within the Massachusetts State College public system."

My personal views:

I'm starting up school there this year, but every time I've been to it (which has been like five times now), I've loved it. The small college size doesn't get to me, and I quite frankly find the approach there to be more stress-free than larger schools. Hell yes.

Schedule:
Monday/Wednesday/Friday:
-College Writing II (10:00 AM - 10:50 AM) (Placed into this; highest college writing course available for freshmen hurdur im speshul)
-Mathematics for Liberal Arts (11:00 AM - 11:50 AM) (At least it's not remedial math, but damn, that test had a lot of calculus, which Mogsy never took)
-The Nature of Human Nature (2:00 PM - 3:15 PM) (Monday/Wednesday only) (I have to take it; Honors program course that I need to pass to stay in school, basically)

Tuesday/Thursday:
-Fundamentals of Music (11:00 AM - 12:15 PM) (I might not even have to go in; the professor is giving me a music theory test on the first day to see if I can just bypass this class and not come in, getting an automatic 100 and an automatic 3 credits, because i r composrawr)
-Great Monuments of Art I (5:00 PM - 6:25 PM) (FPA majors need to take this course :/)

It's a nice little school that can serve a decent lunch, but this may because I have the same thing every day. Our semesters are treated as one year and thus we only have four periods a day lasting 1 and a half hours. Our mascot is the Chief.
My Current Schedule:
Period 1 (7:45 - 9:15): German 1
Period 2 (9:20 - 10:55): Accelerated English 10
Lunch 1 (Our school actually has to lunches and the lunch your in is determined by your third period class) 11:00 - 11:35
Period 3 (11:40 - 1:10) : Intermediate Algebra
Period 4 (1:15 - 2:45) - Wind Ensemble 1

Second Semester:
Period 1: German 2
Period 2: Latin History
Lunch 1
Period 3: Advanced Algebra
Period 4: Wind Ensemble 2

If you couldn't tell, my Period 1, 3, and 4 classes are all one year classes, and is odd how it happened like that.

I go to a joint senior school/sixth form college in North Wales called Rydal Penrhos.



Rydal was initially a boarding school for boys only, and Penrhos for girls. The two schools amalgamated into the Rydal campus in the late 90s. My school is a boarding school, but allows day pupils to attend. I am a day pupil.

I attend school from 8.30 - 5.00 mon-thur and -4.35 fri. There I am currently studying AS levels in ICT, RS, Geography and Economics. The set uniform is a school blazer and school tie for the senior school pupils and a business suit of your choice with a different tie for the sixth form.

At my school there are currently many German and Chinese students. The Germans all study IB but most of the Chinese do A Levels, and pretty much all of them study maths.
