Get the performant mug.Victoria School of The Performing and Visual Arts, as said by Aloona is a K-12 arts school located in dowtown Edmonton. Being apparently the only arts school in Edmonton, you'd think that it would have a bigger budget. But no. There are silverfish in the white porcelain waterfountains and the promise to relocate has been bouncing around for years. Besides the potential risk of asbestosis and the occasional library fire, Vic has proven to be a not so bad school.
Aloona, as a student at Vic was apparently forced to go there against her will. This could be noted in the resentful, bitter tone in her/his/it's definition. I am also a current student, but came on my own will and enjoying the place.
Vic is also known to carry one of the most vicious and stereotypical librarians out there. She is simply nown as "The Russian". She did not perish in the libary fire though to the dismay of many students.
