Hello. I thought that this post was rather good but I was upset to find out that you had completely missed out on the neutrals -being the normal 'not here nor there' classification of people!
Are they so "normal" and "average" that they shouldn't be mentioned?

I don't know. Just wondering :)
I'm hoping your certain promised 'Part Two' of this topic will include them.

Come to think of it, there are no neutrals in the social ladder. Everyone fits in some category. No neutrals because everyone has an opinion of the whole school politics thing, whether public or not. Well, below are some more classifications.

v. The nerds are at the absolute bottom of the social ladder. Our parents always think we call the hardcore muggers nerds simply because they do hardcore mugging, but that isn't true. Think about it, how many hardcore muggers wear their uniform the 'right' way? (Note: another post coming up about how people wear uniforms.) Most (not ALL, I must make myself clear lest more people come a'flaming) of these hardcore muggers tuck in their blouses all the way/wear their belt at the waist, wear their socks high, and take special care not to break the school rules. Where's the fun in THAT?! Haha, just kidding. But seriously, they get outcasted because of their dressing, so yeah, they're at the bottom.

vi. The hotshots who don't know they're hotshots are the goodlooking ones! They're hotshots because they're goodlooking, to put it simply. They usually exist in girls' schools, as I am more aware of the lesbian side than the gay side in boys' schools so.. :P Anyway, they're pretty/hot or cute, tall or small, tanned or fair, etc. And their dashing good looks make people sit up and notice them. Because of this, people start wanting to be their friends and fawning over them, including the hotshots themselves. You can guess what happens next. The thing is, these people are sooo innocent, they have no intentions of being hotshots and so are not aware that everyone is sucking up to them. The sad thing? Some of them realise what is happening and take advantage of it :( Not innocent anymore.

Er there's nothing else to say I think. Part 3 will be about the kinds of hotshots.

Maybe once in a while.

To fans of PM, thank you, we really appreciate it :)
To the dickheads, get your heads out of your asses, take a picture of yourselves, and email it to us. I've yet to know how a dickhead looks like.
And thanks alot, PMS, you did your job well even though there was no pay. Enjoyed our midnight suppers? :)

Have fun in school, kids.

Cheers,
Pretty.

Politics.

Hello I'm back :D

I'm going to blog about politics this time. When someone says "politics", usually what would come to mind are government officials and such. But of course there are government politics, office politics and what most of you would not think of this way: school politics. I know of people who refer to it as the 'school social system' or 'social ladder'. Pretty interesting isn't it, the whole politics thing?

I'm blogging about the school politics of more prestigious, single sex schools as I have a better understanding of them than co-ed neighbourhood schools. Please take note that this is merely my OPINION and THEORY of how it all works. Do not comment/tag and say I am making false statements, I am tired of handling such comments.

1. The Beginning
It all starts when we enter secondary school. We enter fresh and innocent from primary school, not knowing that beneath the 'high-class' and 'prestigious' exterior of [prestigious secondary school], lies a horde of vicious, backstabbing, lying little girls/boys. The first day of school is of course scary, we have left most of our primary school friends behind and stepped into an unfamiliar place with strange people everywhere. Everyone seems so nice and helpful (of course they are, we find out later, they are prefects and councillors). We start to think, "Maybe this won't be so bad after all!"

2. The Journey
We make our friends, form our little cliques and of course make enemies too. At this time everyone is still starting to get to know each other and what kind of person everybody is. This is usually the first half of the school year (secondary one). We start to settle into our positions on the social ladder.

3. The Destination
By this time (later half of the year), social positions are more or less confirmed already. The hotshots are up there at the top, enjoying the fresh air, and the outcasts are at the bottom, breathing in all the air polluted with methane and hydrogen sulphide (from you guessed it, the hotshots' farts) There are, of course, different types of hotshots. But that, I shall save for another post.

At stage 3, everyone will know who's who in school.

i. The bootlickers will strike. They add the hotshots on MSN and Friendster, write them flattering testimonials, give them lavish gifts, etc. Of course, this shower of attention is warmly welcomed by the hotshots. They start going out with them, telling them their secrets... The bootlickers get what they want: recognition. They want to be seen with the 'in' crowd, to be good friends with the hotshots. If you're seen with them, everyone naturally knows you.

ii. The wannabes are cousins of the bootlickers. They want recognition too. But they want more: they want to BE the hotshots, not just part of the hotshot clique. And so the power struggle begins. They diss schoolmates, they rebel against the school system, they act like they're the hotshots. But of course they can never take their place. The hotshots are hotshots for a reason, they're MEANT to be hotshots. Whatever others do, it just won't propel them to the top. Their actions will just set them against the hotshots and risk their social status. Some wannabes realise this much later, and turn into bootlickers. The easier way of gaining recognition and power.

iii. The worshippers are a totally different breed. They know their place on the social ladder (most likely in the middle or towards bottom) and know they can never be at the top. They don't even try. Instead, they worship these hotshots. Pretty pathetic if you ask me.

iv. The hotshots are known by everyone, obviously. They worked their way to the top by being aggressive and domineering, or simply by having the right connections. Everyone keeps themselves updated with the hotshots' affairs, don't usually offend them, they set trends and are talked about by the rest of the student body. And of course a hotshot can't be called a hotshot without their huge social network. They know many people from different schools everywhere.

Well, I had fun coming up with this entry and I hope you will, reading it. I bet there'll be negative comments coming in again, but heck it.

Happy New Year, PrettyMilky readers! Wishing all of you a great school year :) Don't trod on the wrong toes!

Piyopiyo is a thief.

This is a Christmas present to readers of Prettymilky, because I've been terribly busy.

Take a look at these two pictures:





Take a second look at the first picture, the one on the top left hand corner.
PY put up Sam Chua's picture on her Friendster.
What's PY, anyway? That reminds me of Piyopiyo.
Let's call her Piyopiyo.


So, with that one (of the many) picture she put up, she has won the heart(s) of the owner(s) of LeSbiAn RuLeZ.

Are you crazy, Piyopiyo?! Why would you wanna steal someone else's picture?!
Oh, if that is really you, then explain why the shirt/ glasses/ hair/ jaw is the same as Sam Chua's but different from yours.

Oh, and one last thing, coloring a black circle on your ear, trying to trick people into thinking that you're wearing an ear stud is a really dumb thing to do. Just go pierce your ear or something, damnit.


- Pretty.

P/S: Nice pose, Ashley. (But please don't tell me you're a bung!)



PP/S: PMS wants to add that Sam Chua has a bigger ear lobe that PY.

Merry Christmas!

I've had a fabulous Christmas.
What about you?
