more r.i banging - for mei
had to do this. It's been a long time - a good way to "release stress" those r.i guys caused me. Oh ya, btw, T Square's been "converted" to become a full true blue ACSian, he just made the mistake of going to the most messed up school in the country when he got top five in ACPS during the PSLE.
And it took them 43 tries to finally beat the B division Boys ONLY! the C division and ACJC still reigns SUPREME! hahahah! That is what you call - "C Cubed E M I" (Thanks Colin) -
Confirm cannot, can never ever make it r.i is condemned in the swimming pool!

Sir Thomas Stamford BINGLEY Raffles. A name which many icons of our country are names after. Especially the mental instituition: The Raffles Instituition! They hide away the "Bingley" in their founder's name as it was too embarrassing to mention publicly! Sounds like BUNGLE or BRINKSTER. =P
So there's a fuss about the pronunciation of the name of this new condominium near to where else but ri? It had to be The RAFFLES INSTITUITION! No other school insists on having the road outside their school named after them. The truth is, 1 Raffles Instituition Lane isn't even a road! It is just a gateway where boys in "tight white shorts run about".
From Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles name. "Raffles" is pronounced "RARE-FELS" Even Farquhar called him "RARE-FELS"
Why the hell do those ri/rgs/rgps/rjc/raffles alumni people call themselves Rafflesians, as in pronunciation-wise "RA-FLEA-SIANS' when any ACS guy would obviously pronounce it "RAFFLE-SIANS"? They mock at their very founder by pronouncing his name as "Sir Thomas Stamford BINGLEY RARE-FLEAS"!
What's with them and this stinking small irritating pest called the flea? Food for thought indeed. Perhaps they are really like fleas in our real life since the MOE loves to uplift them (as though fleas need help to go airborne!) for doing an excellent job in hopping and staying at the peak of a pile of garbage called "The Education System". They've been at the top of the pile for dunno-how-many-donkey-years-already. They dominate the digusting summit upon a rotting hill for which every non r.i student turn their noses up at and every other r.i-wannabe school tries to unseat them in foolish squandor and stress.
I think somewhere, somehow, someone really messed up the pronunciation. It had to be some principal at some part of ri's history. Who else can actually enforce such a unique pronunciation for such a easy to pronounce word?
That "key person" probably got his inspiration from the Rafflesia, the largest flower found in the world. It is a flower named after Sir Thomas Stamford RARE-FELS. Just that the botanist who discovered it realised that it was a tremendously smelly flower, as it produces the putrid smell of rotting flesh so as to attract flies to help it pollinate.
Perhaps that botanist decided to alter the pronounciation slightly to avoid "tarnishing" the good name of the founding father of modern day Singapore to RA-FLEA-SIA instead of RARE-FLES-SIA as he gained inspiration from the myriad of flies and fleas swarming around him as he studied the flower.
And perhaps that where the key person got his "pronounciation guide" to help him to "better pronounce the school's name". Yet, ironically, the top secondary school in singapore in terms of studies produces students that cannot even pronounce the name of the school correctly! How laughable a laudable attempt to "imitate the british accented way of pronounciation".
That's why, ACS will always be better than ri in English. Always. Now and Forevermore. For Life EVERLASTING in FACT. =)
Besides, the reason why the condo's name is pronounced RARE-FLEZ-SIA? Because ACS owns Singapore! All the biggest construction firms and developers are owned by ACS people.
We just need to show the fleas how to properly pronounce their own school name better by putting an extravagantly prominent landmark that will not be missed to remind them of the correct pronounciation. And what a landmark it is! A condominum named after the smelliest flower in the whole world!
