some of  the  advantages and disadvantages of being a prefect in sas.........

well lets begin with the advantages...

1. when a function or any other gathering comes to school.... the lunch or tea table are always  arranged in the T.T   court..and yes the prefects are always invited.....

2. in any of the function ...maybe  the school concert or something....the prefects are all over the place.....with or without any  work....they keep running around the place with no grave idea for what....well they are called the J.J.Bs  these days...jabar jasti busy......? well the best  way  to get noticed actually.

3. u are always right..well atleast sometimes....the teachers as far as i know...always listen to  what the prefects say..and not any of the other students....well the prefects indeed the ideal students..

4. the good thing about being a school captain..is u are like the boss..cuz u can always ask the other prefects to do the jobs...and  best of all...u don't have a house so u don't have to spin ur head on all those house matches and stuff.

5. this ones a good one....if  by any chance u are caught outside a video palour...or any one of the restricted places..u can always escape by saying u were checkin  if any of the guys were visiting the place.

now lets get on with the disadvantages.....

1. the  first disadvantage is....all of the above stuffs sometimes never does happen when u are a prefect or a school cap.

2. we're always under the false belief that when u are in your gray pants.....u always have the chance to get  noticed...noticed by whom? well girls o course..but the sad part is that..it ain't always true ..cuz as far as i know ur  own school students don't  recognize u..just the last time   a small guy from grade 4 comes up to me  and asks...evan dai ..evan dai....during the 15th august march past ..why  were u marching in front of all the others....

3. u can't bunk the march past...esp when u are the school  cap..except under some extreme conditions like u are suffering from polio or something....that was a joke...conditions like...u seem to sprain ur ankle just a day before the march past practice...u start suffering from a great no.. of  "never heard" of diseases....just when the practice begins...or  in the most extreme  conditions like ....when u don't know how to march at all ..and mr. raju..the teacher involved in the drill...thinks  that a duck marches better than u.

4. ur always  given great no. of  jobs to do....well this time  we ain't J.J.Bs.....the jobs don't seem to stop comin..and it becomes much boring to do it when  u realize no one is noticing u...

5. the oath taking ..well just started a year ago...well that's  kinda embarrassing ....when u see 1500 hundred  faces smirking on ur face...with ur hands held up high and taking ur oath...

6. as a school cap..the assembly becomes a living night mare...it really is boring...but when u are  not  the school cap..it becomes  much more than  that..any day the school cap is absent..the mornings of the other prefects become a living hell.....cuz sometimes they tend to mess up the  "our father"..cuz truly  most of  us don't know the prayer...or sometimes u tend to mess up ur english by saying..."school  national  anathem  begins"! or in the most extreme cases u tend to sing the national anthem from the mike and it 's just ur voice and no one else's....that can be heard.

7. another good one....sometimes u  get caught red handed in the video parlor... u  are not  aware  ..until  the movie is  over and as u start to go...u are caught by one of the teacher ...who , u didn't realize was sitting next to u all the time throught the movie...well that's  the most embarrassing thing o course. well whose embarrassing moment..the teacher's or the students ...that's  for u  to decide....
