An international school located in the suburbs of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia's capital city. The School is accredited by CITA, an American educational organization that got bribed by the school's highest authorities.
The school is primary divided into two sections, the boys section and the girl's section.
The boys section: The boys' section is adorned with high tech surveillance cameras, a useless swimming pool, a tiny cafeteria that sells known products at astronomical prices, and teachers from the slums of the Arabian society. The boys section uniform is a military one for grades 8 up to 11, an ugly gray and blue outfit for grades 1 up to 8, and a formal suit for grade 12.
The educational levels are the minimum possible, the authorities are....(speechless)
The girls section: Is the central section of the whole school, the "authorities" of the boys section rely on it for strict instructions on how to behave... non followers get spanked usually.

The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) was created by the Dawes/Young Plan for coordinating the transfer of billions of Reichsmarks in reparations from Germany to the Allied powers after WW1. Almost at one, the BIS switched to managing international transactions of gold or hard currency. It also facilitated financial transactions between the Nazi regime and neutral countries during the War.
The BIS provides a very wide variety of specialized services, including underwriting and arbitration in fiduciary disputes.

Get the animal planets international dog show bronze medalist mug.Individuals who come to study abroad with no intention of actually working hard in their studies. Live off the wealth of their parents which they squander daily on alcohol and shopping. Smoking is a necessity, especially in front of the school library. Will only befriend you with an ulterior motive.
Never one to be trusted or taken seriously. Don't have much respect for anyone but themselves and believe that money can solve everything. Males who already completed military service are the worst. Their pride eats away their brain and believes that violence and force is the only solution to all problems. Known to cheat excessively in groups on exams even under the watchful eye of university professors. Known to beat women and will demand respect from people younger than they are. Addicted to hearing the term "hyung" far more than their counterparts in Korea. Will often hide behind their religion to look innocent. "Christianity" is often a mask to hide their thoughts and is also a way to get women.
This applies mostly to 90% of Korean international students in respective universities. The other 10% are well known hard workers who try very hard to adapt to their respective academic settings and social atmospheres.

Get the Korean International Student mug.A collection of at any given time 120 or so high schoolers lacking enough social skills to adequately communicate and so smart they could probably end world hunger if they weren't so busy discussing it. Known to have affinities for debate, music, technology, etc. Often abbreviated simply to "the Academy."
Conversation regarding the Glenbrook Academy of International Studies:
A: Dude, my brother hasn't left his room in about a year.
B: Why not?
A: It's cuz he's in the Academy. He needs a life.

Get the Glenbrook Academy of International Studies mug.1. The canteen really sucks, no A/C and the food is mediocre.
2. If you happen to not be late, the Asst. Principle or sometimes the Head of School greats you at the gate (graceful perhaps?).
3. This is a Catholic school even though most kids are not even Catholic. You gotta listen to a prayer every assembly.
4. Even though the school keeps putting foreigners/loogkruengs on the ads but the truth is, most students are Thai.
5. Teachers are good.
6. A GOOD THING: the school offers both AP and IB.
7. The SCHOOL IS FUCKING OLD. Even though this is the new campus in Minburi (defunct one is at Soi Ruamrudee) but it is still old (it moved here since 1992). It's old so they keep renovating the first floors but don't really give a shit about the upper floors.
8. They THINK THEY CARE about students breathing bad air by buying AQI monitors but they don't bother to buy air purifiers, instead, they install 'cheap filters in the aircon'. They cancel assembly when AQI is bad but let students sit in an open-air-canteen...#bigbrain.
9. Actually some people get in good uni like Harvard and dozens get into med school, so if ur an Asian parent, RIS is for you.
10. Y'all ADMINS...can you use the money to renovate the school...like actually hire interior designers. Idk what you do with the money (to church?). I mean the school is SUPPOSED TO BE NON-PROFIT but, it seems like you treat it like a multi-billion-baht business...advertise on 500k-billboards-per-month and build new campus tf?!
