Don't Use The Toilet After Rehat And More Life-Changing Things Secondary School Taught Us
Good times indeed!
By Tang Ruxyn
Our school days were the BEST days of our lives!
Here are top 28 things secondary school taught us, as shared by Malaysians:
3. "To have connections everywhere."
It's important to make friends with everyone. Prefects, librarians, teachers... did we mention prefects?
6. "To be a pro at salin nota."
Teacher: Okay, insert student's name please help to erase the blackboard.
The class: TEACHER, WAIT!!!!
8. "To always be nice and greet my teachers whenever I meet them outside of class."
There could be a 'gift' waiting for us if we didn't.
9. "How to lie."
"Why did you not finish your homework?"
"Sorry teacher, I was sick yesterday."
10. "That girls cannot get pregnant just by holding hands with a boy."
Thank God for Biology and Chapter 4 of Form 3 Science! :p
11. "How to take a shower, get dressed, do my hair, and brush my teeth in less than 15 minutes."
15. "That my school was haunted."
Don't look into the mirror when you're in the school toilet!
18. "To use the other teacher's names to ponteng the class that you dislike."
19. "That I could do high jump or parkour if I tried hard enough and it was proven true when the pak guard locked the school gates."
21. "How to cooperate with a stranger."
Remember how we used to leave our books in our table drawers and the budak petang would do the same? #sharingiscaring
22. "That it was hard making a choice between going into the "best class" or sticking with your friends."
"After sitting for (the now-obselete) PMR, I was selected to get into the best pure-Science class but my best friend is going to a sub-Science class?!"
24. "How to look busy when I'm actually just procrastinating."
An especially useful skill during gotong-royong.
25. "To never, ever, take out my IC to show my friends unless it's for an emergency"
We look so much better now than we did at 12 years old.
26. "How to magically make things disappear."
We kind of knew that we have the power to make things disappear since our school stationeries always go missing, but we never knew our full potential until we received a surat amaran. ;)
28. "That friends from secondary school will stick with me till this very day!"
