hello everyone!!! thanx for replying...i was a former sajcian myself but i was onli there for 1 yr...didnt graduate...sob...went to poly....i realli loved the uniform...i was one of those who would keep my tie worn properly the whole day without loosening it until i reached hm...i stil remember my last day in sajc...i was so reluctant to remove my uniform...oh well, those were the days...
anyway, juz for the record...my longest record of wearing the tie in the smartest way without loosening it at all was 16 consecutive hrs!!! from 615am to 1015pm on a particular fri...i nvr had problems wearing the tie properly...to me, wearing the tie properly was a mark of respect for my uniform n the school...i came from the era when sajc was rather strict abt our ties...i estimate abt more than 80% of the students wore their ties properly thru out the day, tis include after sch as well...there was a rule tat said if any of us was caught nt wearing our ties or nt wearing them properly at any time of the day, we would be sent to CWO...tis rule though didnt last very long...it ended once the principal was changed...hence, the current tie wearing standard...
-
what intake were you from?i dont remember needing to wear the tie when i was in class though.
-
i was in the 1998-1999 intake...i left early 1999...u sure u dun need wear tie in class?? during my time, ties were worn at all times when in class...onli when in canteen did students have the audacity of removing their ties...but after tat rule was enforced, hardly anyone dared to loosen/remove their ties when in uniform...hai...discipline has become so slack nowadays...
-
nope.and its alright to walk around the school without a tie as long as you don't run into certain teachers.
-
sigh...like i said...discipline seems to have slackened alot in recent yrs...let me guess which teachers...Ms K? marimuthu? i witnessed Ms K punishing a few students at her GP lecture once...they came late for lecture...she made them stand in front of lecture hall n face all the students for the whole period...she is also one who always made a fuss abt us wearing our ties...but she nvr had to scold me cos my tie was always worn properly...
-
yup miss k.frankly speaking,my teachers didnt wouldnt give a damn even if i untucked my shirt and took out my shoes in class
-
1 thing i notice abt tis 2 schools regarding the wearing of ties...the tie discipline seems to have slackened in recent yrs for sajc but for cedar, it seems to have improved...during my era, there were more sajcians who wore their ties properly compared to cedar...nowadays, more cedarians r wearinf their ties properly compared to sajcians...maybe the kor-kors n jie-jies from sajc have to learn from their younger sisters from cedar how to wear their ties properly...

hello i am back again!!! well during my time in sajc, i got to noe tis gal from cedar...i wun call her my frend, she more of an acquaintance to me...anyway, she has a complete opposite perception abt tie wearing from me...
during one of our fone conversation, we somehow started toking abt our sch uniforms...when we toked abt hers, she said: its ok to wear a tie, juz dun pull it up...when i qn y, she replied: ITS SO HOT!!! then i went on to share my opinions abt tie wearing n qn her wad if she ran into DM in sch...she replied rebelliously: if run into DM, then gei gei pull the tie up lor...then when DM gone, pull it down again lor...i was shocked by her rebellious response...i then asked wad if she got caught wearing the tie sloppily n got punished...she replied tat she rather get punished than to pull her tie up..."ITS SO HOT!!!" she exclaimed...
we ended the topic wif her saying tat most of the cedarians who will pull their ties up r those in lower secondary...the upper sec gals wun pull their ties up...back then, her theory seem correct...BUT nw, her theory can no longer hold as i find so many upper sec cedarians pulling up their ties...
i cun imagine tis acquaintance of mine being a prefect...she would have been a bad testimony, wearing the prefect name tag wif her tie worn as low as the 1st button...the sch image would have been tarnished by her...wun be surprised if she got sacked from prefectorial board... -
come to tink of it...gd thing tis acquaintance of mine didnt go to sajc but nyjc...sajc was very strict abt our uniforms during my era esp. the way we wore our ties...being a tertiary sch, it means we have to wear our ties from early morning until abt 5pm in the evenings except on wed which was cca day...plus by the time most of us got hm, it would be at least 6pm le...
dunno how my acquaintance would have 'survived' if she had gone to sajc...there would have been 2 possible outcomes: 1) despite all the complaining, she would comply to the rules n keep her tie up for the whole day until she got hm...2) refuse to comply to the rules n get sent to CWO almost every wk...
judging from her character, she may have chosen option 2...though i dun rule out the chance tat she may choose option 1...either tat or she choose nt to study in sajc purely cos she dun wanna pull her tie up...which i tink would have been very silly... -
hello juz to add on...tis acquaintance of mine was one of those who claimed to be proud of her school...yet look at the way she wore her uniform...ppl realli contradict themselves at times...they dun mean wad they say...well, at least her actions dun show it n we noe tat its actions tat matters nt juz plain toking...
-
i like sajc's and cedar's uniform. the tie makes them look cool. whats wrong with wearing it anyway?
-
i tink most have no problems wearing tie...they onli have problems abt pulling it up their collar...they will blame external factors like hot weather, pull up all the way look nerdy etc...but they nvr blame themselves for poor uniform discipline...the fault seems to be the external factors nt them...
-
juz to add on...i tink it is stated very clearly in both sajc n cedar's school rules tat the tie is to be worn properly at all times...it was even stated tat the tie is to be pulled up to the collar wif top button fastened...so strictly speaking, when we dun wear our ties properly, we have broken the school rules...
tink of it, if it was humanly impossible to button up the top button n pull ur ties up all the way(too hot, too uncomfortable etc)...y would one set such a rule??? its cos it can be done n has been proven to be possible, tats y it was laid down as a rule...so by saying tat weather is so hot, wear tie very nerdy etc...r these gd reasons or juz mere excuses to cover up for our lack of uniform discipline???
i strongly believe tat most of us being humans will nt confess tat the reason we dun wear our ties properly is cos of poor uniform discipline...we will put the blame on external factors...humans r like tat, we wan to feel tat we have done no wrong...dun u guys agree??? -
oh pls , i wish can i wear the sajc tie all day im proud to be in the sa family for 10 yrs... though sajc is not the best jc but i think its uniform is good enugh to trash others uniforms
-
dun chiu think the tie makes the student hamsum/sexy?Originally posted by despondent:wad r ur opinions abt having to wear the school tie everyday to sch???r u more concern abt looking smart or or feeling comfortable???
-
be proud to wear your sa ties.
nj ties are BRIGHT RED. BLOODY RED TIE ON A FREAKING GREY UNIFORM
thank goodness nj people only have to wear it on special occasions. -
i didn't like the idea of wearing the tie when i was in sajc. No doubt makes one look more presentable, but sajc is a jc, not an office. I prefer ac uniform.
-
ok...since so many of us r supportive of wearing the tie properly at all times...then let me throw tis qn open to all... wad do u tink shld be done to students who dun wear their ties properly or take off their ties when they r nt suppose to???

Though I'm not from a school that requires students to wear their tie daily, I'm a Student Councillor and can say that after wearing the tie for 3 years, I somehow feel I'm not looking that smart without the tie anymore. It kind of give me pride in my uniform and respect for the school.
