an acquaintance of mine who was an sajcian once said sth like
tis: a person who wears his uniform sloppily onli shows how sloppy
his character is from within...he nt onli shows disrespect to the
uniform he is wearing but also disrespect to himself...
how true is tis statement...in fact most ppl i noe who adhere to
smart uniform wearing would agree closely to wad my acquaintance
said above...juz abt 2 mths ago, i was going hm one nite...i was
waiting for the bus at a bus stop outside serangoon mrt when i saw
tis female sajcian(non-councillor) who was also waiting for the
bus...she was sitting down when i walked towards her direction...i
noticed tat nt onli was she stil wearing her tie, it was pulled up
all the way such tat it the knot covered the top button, which was
neatly buttoned up...i looked at my watch n realised it was abt
930pm...i was like man, how many of such ppl can we find
nowadays??? students who choose to obey sch rules, r proud of their
uniforms n wil nt choose to break sch rules for the sake of their
own comfort???
at tat time, memories began to flood back into my mind...memories
of the time when i was in sajc...when almost all of the students
adhered to gd n proper uniform discipline...looking at tis gal juz
reminded me of those times when my sch frends n i went out in
groups after sch...we would go shopping, go for meals tgr...yet
hardly any of us took our uniform for granted...u would have seen
groups of sajcians roaming the streets wif their shirts/blouses
tucked in n ties worn properly...in fact, many of us liked wearing
our uniform cos we felt very smart in it...in fact during those
days, the onli way u could tell if someone was a councillor was by
the councillor's tag on the shirt/blouse cos almost all of us, both
councillors n non-councillors wore our ties properly...tis is so
unlike nowadays when councillors r so easily recognisable...cos
nowadays, u onli have to look at how the person wears his/her tie n
u can guess if he/she is a councillor...sigh...it seems like those
gd old days of gd uniform discipline r over...realli dunno if those
days wil ever return...
