Went to RVHS to sell Camelot tickets today. It was quite unnerving having come from a school where Chinese is like, close to an alien language. I'm quite sure that all the time I was in RV I did not hear a single conversation which was carried out in a language apart from Chinese. The only english I heard was when they saw our posters and went 'Camm...me...lot..'.
Guess this is what you call a culture shock.
But I suppose in the end all schools we go down too are the same - everyone tells us to buzz off when we approach them to buy tickets. -_-
Exhale
Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.
