You know you're from ACJC when..

- Almost half of your friends speak Chinese worse than AngMoh

- You have to deal with such a thing called "swim pe"

- Your skirt is a mini-skirt... Plus your shirt is never tucked in but you pretend it is

- It takes you 18 years to realize the majority listen to Chinese music

- From time to time you get a sense that any good address should end with the phrase "The Best is Yet to Be"

- You and your friends go crazy when a turtle car scoots into view.

- You have a principal say "DONCH" all the time.... Lim H.... S...n.

- You start running out of class once your friends start singing "Happy Birthday", then you find yourself in the pool naked after they catch you

- You feel like telling Gurmit to shove the $10 (fine for stepping on the track) up his ass.

- You think Jimmy Tong is a hero.

- Potential councilors campaign by promising to ensure that there will be a constant supply of toilet paper in the girl’s toilet

- You HAVE to alter your skirt, or you're not cool and people laugh at you.

- When other people give you funny looks when you say the coolest place is the void deck.

- Red, Blue and Gold start becoming your favourite colors

- When you actually miss chapel, and When you actually expect to hear Majulah Singapura every morning in perfect acapella harmony.

- No, it's not a $10 fine for walking on the track anymore. by (2003/2004) it was RUN TEN ROUNDS around the track. A group of guys from my batch actually had to, in full school uniform.

- When you just have to study in school during exams even though it's damn noisy and you have to shove your iPod into your ears all the time.

- You think that your school uniform is cooler with the shirt than the yellow PE T-shirt.

- You have climbed down the side of the school near the canteen, through the fence behind the tennis courts or conned the guard with fake mc 'cause you're late

- You never wish to trade your time there for anything else! You shudder to think that you could have been at any other junior college!
