The concept of a school uniform serves two purposes: to create a sense of belonging and school pride and also to eliminate some of the competition in the matter of personal dress. most schools with a uniform have very precise requirements and issue a uniform list which covers all items from general day-to-day wear (often including shoes) to more specialised sportswear and equipment. boys are often required to wear a shirt, a tie, trousers and a jacket (or a blazer), whilst girls usually wear the same with the substitution of a skirt for trousers. in winter an overcoat or raincoat will also be required plus a school scarf. some schools have a shop supplying all the required items of a school uniform. most schools relax some of the uniform requirements for the older students идея школьной формы служит двум целям: создать чувство принадлежности и гордости за школу, а также устранить соревнование в вопросе личной одежды. большинство школ с формой имеют четкие требования и составляют целый список, который охватывает все элементы от повседневной одежды (часто включая обувь), до более специализированной спортивной одежды и снаряжения. мальчикам часто требуется носить рубашку, галстук, брюки и жакет (или пиджак), в то время как девочки обычно носят то же самое с заменой брюк на юбку. зимой обязательны пальто или плащ плюс школьный шарф. большинство школ проще относятся к некоторым требованиям в отношении формы для старших школьников.
When my younger brother, Ibrahim, was a toddler, he used to call me dad (instead of Eyad) and we used to laugh about it. But as we grew up, 7 years apart, this joke started to become a reality. Ibrahim copied me in every possible way, and has an unshakable faith in me. For the longest time I considered him my best friend. I took care of him, taught him, and confided in him. I care about him so much that I don’t want to disappoint him. I know he is watching my every move, so I am watching my every move. I know he is copying every word I say, so I am careful with what I say. If I ignore my work, he ignores his and if I cut corners, he follows suit. I want to be proud of him so I need to be proud of me. Last summer, I asked my father if I could help around the office. He said he has “a project” for me. I had to scan some 1000 old charts into the new electronic system.
