School's not Cool (lame title, I know)

Japan being what it is, there's little functional difference. The
skirts are longer, the classes subjects more Western and the official
stuff is more stuck up. 遊学 is actually not as good as most of the
public schools. One of my friends said he went to 遊学 because he failed
to get into the public school he wanted.
A Westerner would see them all as private schools.

  1. This looks like the answer to my public/private schools question. The skirts are longer - how sad.

    So I guess you mean they all have the 'private school vibe'- a pretence of strictness, a reality of laxity, a strong concern with appearances -

    Geoff, I think you're going to like college. Seriously.

  2. Let's hear it for University! The most relaxed and awesome time I've ever had. I'm going to miss it :(. You're going to love it Geoff (if it's what you decide to do).
