Students who studied in a convent school often have a sharp superiority over other non-convent students, be it command over English language or a few definitive habits inculcated from their Nuns. The distinguishing factor is that they prove themselves to be convent pass-out and leave a more lasting impression on others. You might be oblivious to this, but there are some peculiar things that prove you studied in a convent school in Nashik, which are:
- Irrespective of difference in God, you still pray like Christians.
Habits die hard!!
- Visit to the school church was a ritual before any exam.
“God please give me grade A.. I’ll lit 100 candles in your honour”
- You are allergic to wrong pronunciations and turn into a “Grammar Nazi”
Why do we become so choosy about the language?
- You still remember and hymn some of your school hymns and carols
Hymns and carols are part of IPod songs
- Cursive is the only form of writing everyone must have even after they pass-out of the school
Which other writing exists?
- You often got confused when people asked you about father/sister because all you see in a convent school are fathers, sisters and brothers
Which father or sister are you talking about?? I have many!!
- Principal of your school wore skirts and gowns
Don’t be shocked… it is usual for us!!
- The sight of a nun still scares the crap out of you
nuns were a terror at times!!
- Sex education class bottom line: sex before marriage = impurity = sin in the eyes of God
OMG!!! What else can we comment?!?!?
- But in spite of that, the morals you learnt at school have somehow stuck with you through all these years.
Morals for a convent student was like sitting with a bible
The “conventism” in you will never be inhibited from you no matter where you go and how you behave. It is cemented to you forever!! Lars Von Trier said ” That’s the great thing about entering a convent school; there are things that you simply can’t do, so you don’t have to worry about them” The morals, invocations, carols and mannerism will always be reminisced to the students of convent school. Amen!!
