and you're wondering what does the S stands for. bahaha afterall i have to swear. this is part of my language. duh.
and this is the greatest irony ever - i'm starting my 'fashion blog' (its not quite one yet) beginning with my school uniform.
it has been 12 years. 12 years living, studying, growing up in this everything-blue school. and for the ever first time in my life as a blue monster, i can feel the tiny little extent of freedom for grooming myself up before school without guilt or risk taken.
i guess it is some kind of reward for being loyal to the school for so long, that after all these years of traditional chinese styled education method, you now deserved to be not too explicitly liberated for a tad bit. and teachers are now your supposedly closer friends, so i guess it will be awkward to pick on every tiny details.
yes thats how i've been wrapping myself up with my scarf for...4 years. eh, yea, 4 years. (yes i know i am getting old. seriously, who doesn't?) oh i've never really looked at it this closely and wow surprisingly it doesnt look too grostesque, outrageous or colloquial (right i know thats everyone's wrapping themselves, but then this does look different, doesn't it?).
and there's this bun - the controversial part of my school outfit (ahemmm) - while some say it's like a flower, some say its a exploding bomb. a-ha-ha. and in the end i was suggested by disciplinary persons to be tidier.
and if you look closely, i'm actually wearing earrings to school (recently picked up my old earrings - more blogging on that to come), and if you look even closer, they are actually blingbling golden little hearts - even more controversial (wtf?!?) since our school, a very traditional one, restricts all sorts of accessories except a pair of round golden studs no bigger than 5mm right in the middle of one's earlobes ('oh puh-lease.' 'yea i know, but thats my school.'). but hey, it turns out not that tacky, and most importantly it brightens up feminine features, dont you think? :)
by now you should know why i'm saying fmsl. but then, if its never this suppressive, we'd all ended up mix-and-matching our daily outfits, pouring (very likely slutty - look at the past school picnics and funfairs) make-up on ourselves every single day (and gradually deteriorating our skin eww), flaunting designer clothes (let's admit it - we all are brand-crazy), wasting time on unnecessary extravaganzas while the time spent in total is good enough for revising the whole curriculum twice or thrice. and only by that you will truly treasure every single weekend you have and think carefully before you wear anything.
and still, there are still some ways to brighten up your look at school, aren't there? at least i feel better with my fluffy bun and shaped studs.
p.s. bahahaha credits to mrs lee for helping her daughter to order ORABRUSHES! now i owe this blog a product review.
From a completely boy-ish perspective, casual wear is really not that great, especially when every morning you get yelled by your siblings that you are wearing completely outrageous when it turns out to be only t-shirt and jeans, plus a dull blazer. When you wear orange, they say it's too 'bright'; when you wear grey, they say 'it's so gloomy' and so you choose a moderate colour, say blue. Then they go 'it doesn't fit your jeans at all'. and finally, it ends up that you're late for school because of these silly comments.
回覆刪除The nightmare's not over yet: you get back to school and everyone asks if you have combed your hair in the morning; CLEARLY NOT. Then when girls wear spaghetti tops and hot pants teacher yell at you in a horrible, yet perfectly annouciated british accent: 'Girls, this is NOT a fashion parade'. Boys try to chuckle, then the girls scream at you and say 'shut up you hobo' And DO I really look like I live under bridges and not shower?
Lastly, all the boys decides to imitate their physics teacher: white or black t-shirt and jeans, because all they have to say is 'it's the Mr Shearman style'. Poof.
lol chill buddy! thats the funniest story i've heard (oh get lost you've never heard of IS ppl talking about the clothing issue) lool. to be honest i dont think its that bad, well you know i would be pissed too when i saw my dad being colourblind hahah. i mean if its really tiring just wear a hoodie with jeans that should save you from all the arguments :P
回覆刪除and thats why in conclusion i kinda like the idea of wearing school uniform, though sometimes i find it really tiring!
回覆刪除A lot of people realised the convenience of having a uniform on uniform day (funny how we longed for casual wear day when we had our uniforms and how we admire the ease of wearing uniforms now). I cannot stand the idea of going to class in your pjs wearing flip flops/ uggs. YET going through your wardrobe 2 minutes before class isn't the best 'first-thing-in-the morning' either. Dilemma there.
回覆刪除it took me about 5 seconds to think about what the s is. But it surprises me a little when i figured it out.
回覆刪除I thought you would have got used to it. For me, I just don't really care about it. It's sad that there are rules which we have to follow anyway (and we all have a privilege already in F.6 xd) and sometimes they are rigid. but as you said, what will this world be like if there are no rules? and are the rules really unreasonable?
so i think it's more than the going-through-your-wardrobe and wearing-make-up. It's part of the cruel reality of what living in a society means.Afterall, every says school is a miniature of society.
you inspired me..
