Back To School

Still in the holiday mood? Not ready for school at all? Feel like sleeping the whole day at school? FRET NOT! The Merelion is offering five tips to get you from thinking 'SCHOOL FOOL' to 'SCHOOL COOL!'

1.Treat It As The First Day Of School
Well this is what I do after every holidays. It's not the thought of meeting my friends that drives me on, nor the homeworks, and no not that cleaner I often disturb. It's just that I purposely come to school all hyped up, and hoping it'll spread to my friends. Do beware of the occasional punch from someone with anger management issues.

2.Out With The Old, In With The New
Start of school means a new day for cool! Enter the school without your last image. That means new hair, new bag, basically everything new. It's best to even go with a brand new personality/attitude! You'll bound to get that hot foreign schoomate you've been dying for. If she/he turns you down, again, then just wait until the next holiday for a spankin' new image! Not to mention new teachers too. drool

3.Beating The Inflation
Singaporeans love to eat, and with the latest inflation rate at 7.5%, you know you want to start saving. Okay maybe not due to inflation but for someone 'special' What's a better way than to eat good, cheap food at your school canteen! Go WOW! at the $1.20 Chicken Rice that always taste the same even after four years! This will bound to bring super long queues. Beat them by cutting them! The thrill of cutting queues with insults thrown at you from the back never felt so good! You know you missed it!

4.Prankster's Haven
Now every master prankster knows that school is the best place. The risks and consequences of getting caught is much lighter than in a public place. Spread the love! Form flash mobs with friends, create new games, bring new items to start a trend. You'll be the coolest guy in school! That is until the CCA people take over again.

5.Home Away From Home
If none of the tips above appeal to you, and you are still homesick due to lack of rest, you can always bring Home to School! How, you say? Easy! No this does not mean breaking rules like wearing home clothes all but something that's within the rules!This is just called finding loopholes in the rules. Merely place your feet up like how you do at home, eat in class like how you will when watching the tele, anything that makes you feel like at home! If you want you can even bring your own cushion to school to snuggle your butt into that familiar shape! Walk around in class when the teacher pauses teaching, just like how you do at home! You'll never realise you were in school!
