      No kidding ? Really ? This kind of thing can happen ? After delay so much, still got a missing \"L\" ?


      Is it all XS like that OR that your boy is the only odd one out ?

      Think only my boy bou XS size. His classmate bou 'M', no prob.

      So suay, the vendor did not come back, so my boy had no chance to exchange last week. Told him to go to the bookstore vendor to see if she got stock, else I will march to the general office to complain.

      My son has the XS polo shirt. So does quite a few of his friends. I double-checked. It is spelt correctly \"National\" in full. No missing \"L\".

        Just a little \"off-topic\". When I was going to fetch my boy, this Chinese security guard stopped and asked \"fetching?\", while lifting the gate barrier. Then he proceeded to tell me that \"Be Careful, the CHILDREN are walking around as they are leaving already. Then when I asked if the front gate was open (so I could drive out), he mistook my question and said that \"yes, the front gate was open (he was referring to the bus-stop gate), bc all the CHILDREN have been leaving since half an hour ago\".


        I just thot it was so funny that our 13 to 18year olds were referred to as \"Children\" like in a primary school. *hehe*. Couldn't he just have said \"students\"??? šŸ˜‰

            I dunno. I never send my boy into the school. I only drive in in the evenings/afternoons. Usually by 6pm, they open the gate next to the RGPS exit gate (that shares the same road). During the day, usually that gate not open, I notice.

                      Results only announced today. Sorry, my boy clarified that this test is for \"Competition Math\". Have to use this test's results to apply for the Math Olympiad Training, I think.

                      So it's probably not a \"pop quiz\".

                        Btw, is there any merits doing well in MO at sec sch levels?
