5 Tips to Survive in RGS Class 110 '08

1) LEARN FRENCH!!!
French is essential to survive among registers 17, 19, and 20.
Scenario: You are 110's Class Chairperson, who is being accused of liking 2 boys who go by the names of GSG (Vert Lunettes Garçon) and er...someone whose name I shall not reveal. No. 17, 19, and 20 enjoy teasing you about this by speaking in French. A language which you do not understand.
Result: You are DEAD.

2) BE A NERD
Being a nerd is the first step to keeping up with the class.
Scenario: The nerds, namely registers 5, 6, 20, and 28, use uber advanced words that even most people don't understand. Lessons fly past us like cheetahs racing for the last piece of meat. Basically they were the only ones who could actually keep up with the lessons and get good grades at the same time. You're lost if you're not on the same page as they are when doing homework.
Result: You FAIL at your exams AND social life.

3) LIKE CONFLICTING SCHEDULES
Actually this applies to the whole school.
Scenario: For example you are no. 20. You have Squash on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. You have 3rd lang. on Tuesday and Thurday. Your schedule on Thursday is cramped.
Result: You are TORN between the choices.

4) BE GOOD FRIENDS WITH THE SLS
They might actually let you off or go easy on you if you break the rules.
Scenario: It is after PE and you don't feel like changing immediately. I wonder what happens if a super strict prefect walks past...would you get booked? You take off your belt for less than 15 minutes. Would you get booked? Your handphone is out but switched off. Would you get booked?
Result: You get BOOKED if the prefect doesn't read the rules properly.

5) HAVE THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND HEAT AND HARSH MOVEMENTS
You'll pretty much kill yourself if you don't have the stamina.
Scenario: One of the air-cons don't seem to work. The projector is tempremental. The temperature in the classroom is warm, almost hot. The excess travelling due to a non-existant working projector.
Result: You sweat like CRAP.
