Shanghai High School International Division

Shanghai High School International Division=SHSID=Study Here, Sleep Is Deprived

One of the most prestigious schools in Shanghai.

Positives: The school is ginormous, the facilities are top-notch (ice rink, anyone?), and you can choose from up to 20 sports for PE. The IB program is one of the best in China, with 10% of students getting a full score of 45. Similarly, the school pumps out Ivy League acceptances. The fact that it is more Chinese than other international schools means there's not a lot of problems with bullying and underage drinking/smoking/vaping compared to other schools.

Negatives: The school is extremely Chinese for an international school, with 90% of the population being Asian. They are also very conservative, and prefer downplaying scandals before actually addressing the problem at the roots. The students here are very stressed bc teachers don't understand that students cannot do 3 hours of math homework every night. And it's funny how little the school teaches vs how hard the tests are. Without a tutor, you're screwed.

Oh yeah, forgot the GPA deflation. And how all the previously mentioned Ivy Acceptances are often hoarded by 1 person, though the school wouldn't tell you that.

But despite all these downsides, the students have an odd pride of being there. All in all, despite all the complaining the students does about their own school (and all the fantasizing they do about SAS), they ARE proud to be there.
John: "Which school are you in?"

Adam: "SHSID (Shanghai High School International Division), why?"

John: "Damn, you're such a nerd!"

Adam with a 3.4 GPA: "Yeah, thanks, I guess..."

Shanghai Surprise

When you are having sex with a girl and she wants you to hit the gspot and her clit. So you have your penis inside her at an elevated angle to hit the clit reportedly. Then you take your thumb and reach around her and stick your thumb in her ass.

Shanghai left

Similar to a Pittsburgh left except that multiple vehicle make the attempt. Vehicles will generally keep turning left until the opposing traffic forcibly asserts the right of way in a manner similar to a game of "chicken." Named for a practice common in Shanghai, China and other crowded cities in Asia.
"Wow, look at all those cars and trucks attempting a Shanghai left! I can't believe there aren't more accidents here. The highway department should install green arrows and turning lanes."
