The Victorian Spirit

I happened to just be surfing about randomly on the net reading on random stuff, so I decided to wiki about my alma mater.

So what is this Victorian Spirit? It is described on Wikipedia as the Spirit that continues to indwell within the Victorian many years after leaving school.

It was nice to know from a conversation with T sometime back that there are people whom replaced the Victorian Spirit with the Holy Spirit. In as much so, there are people we know that still subscribe to the Victorian Spirit.

Some swear by it. Some compose psalms to describe it. Some create cheers to uplift it. Others dance to the groove created by it.

It makes people sing the school anthem in the rain after each sporting event.

It makes people shout till they sound like toads.

It makes people dance around the Fountain Of Wealth like wild tribal people around a bonfire.

A certain psalm created by Victorians describes it as being up in the head, deep in the heart and all over the body.

Another cheer describes it as the Mama.

So what is it?

  1. OMG the Victorian Sprit = Holy Spirit thing is super funny hahaha. Coincidentally I was just talking to my friend about the *person we were referring to*. He has found the Holy Spirit for real now, in case you didn’t know. ;)

    Not sure about T’s Mr A*g though. Need to reunite with my other half.

  2. :O

    Mr A*g is your other half?! Tsk tsk.

    Ay I saw him at NUS the other day. But he didn’t see me. Guess the Victorian Spirit does not dwell in me anymore.
