  true. they're just made just cause the school wants us to wear them. anyway. i suggest cooking aprons. those you can find. cheap cheap. even better than home ec/d&t aprons.

  get the ugly patterned one. then buy acrylic paint. let their creative juices flow. the one who covers the most area of ugliness wins!

  If you only need 16 pcs, I suggest you write to secondary schools, ask if they have a class of graduating students/graduates who can donate their used ones to you . See if got sec school lobangz....

  i totally forgotten
  
  last time, i remember i even drop my technical studies
  
  because i never hand in my major project
  
  
  
  then teacher ask me to drop it
  
  or it will affect the school percentage
  
  or it will be 99% instead of 100%
