Houses


Houses


When you are first accepted in KDS, you are placed in one of our four house groups. Your house group will act the most as your family during your stay. You will eat, sleep and socialise the most with the people in your group, and you will be expected to tolerate them at all times, because when you're studying at Kangsan you're not only representing the school itself, you're representing your house group.
At the end of each semester, the KDS awards will be announced via the school's newpaper, and one of the awards will be 'Best House' -- this particular award is a very anticipated one between the students, as well as teachers. Each house strives to achieve it, and the winner is classified as nothing more than 'god'. It doesn't seem like much, but theres more to it than that, every winner must recieve an award, right.
Neverless, these are the four houses:

 


Aries | 'The Leader' | Red | Symbol

Your headstrong nature can make you a "battering ram" and woe is the person who stands in your way. Aries are noted for courage and leadership qualities, primarily because you are nearly always ready for action.

The need for excitement pushes you into new territory -- and as long as you are ahead of others while demonstrating confidence, chances are that they will follow you. As self-ordained leader of the pack, Aries fight for what you believe to be important. But it's not that Aries are fearless. Your courage is more of a commitment to face your fears and overcome them.

Gemini | 'The Conceited' | White | Symbol

Gemini go everywhere together, hand-in-hand, symbolizing their dual nature. Our world comes in pairs: good and evil, male and female, in and out, yin and yang -- and you Geminis are living proof. Some might say Gemini are an entanglement of paradoxes, but the truth is that Gemini have an easy acceptance of opposites.

Gemini world is one of duality. Gemini can like this and that, one thing and its opposite. It's like you see your world through a radio and Gemini can tune experiences and points of view in and out as your interests change. You Geminis are curious, talkative, versatile and mentally active. Your mind can bounce around from one topic to another with great ease, making Gemini the champion of cocktail party chatter and lighthearted social encounters. Others will think that Gemini are fun to be with, but your ability to change with the changing winds can also lead others to see Gemini as shallow.

Virgo| 'The Malevolent' | Purple | Symbol

The Virgo is highly discriminating, but not necessarily as prudish at some might believe. In modern times, you Virgos are known for your ability to be highly discriminating -- especially when it comes to matters of personal desire. When Virgo is ready, however, to say yes, the laser-like focus of your passion is anything but prudish.

You Virgos have the uncanny sense to see what's wrong with a person, a situation or your environment. It's why Virgo makes such natural critics. Virgo practical analytical abilities are second to none. Your mental process may not be the most creative, but Virgo's razor-like thinking is highly effective. Like the maiden pictured in the Virgo glyph, you separate the useful wheat from the unneeded chafe, the good from the bad. Virgo might be a "clean freak," but most Virgos have a messy closet somewhere or a disaster under their bed.

Capricorn | 'The prideful' | Blue | Symbol

Capricorn sets high goals for yourself and then you overcome whatever obstacles may appear between you and the top of your personal mountain. As Capricorn climbs the ladder of success, your ambition pushes you forward. Status can be important to Capricorn and often, at the top of your game, you gain personal satisfaction by knowing that others respect you for what you have accomplished. Capricorn can dance out on the edge of a cliff, but will never fall. Why? Stability plays an important role, but so does practice. As a typical Capricorn, you may appear reckless, but chances are that your actions will have been very well planned, and probably also rehearsed.

Capricorn is always calculating what will happen if you do something. You Capricorns are energetically conservative, only expending enough to get you to where you want to be. No silly impulsive actions for you. This is your best insurance to get to the top of the mountain.
