However, it also shows you must quit taking selfies, using words like 'lol' and ought to be married by now. You are no child any more.

Coat of many colours
One was supposed to use a single pair of uniform for two years before you could get another. They were often bought a little baggy to ensure you grow in them and use them for at least two years before you are taken to the tailor for a new pair and that was also subject to your performance in school. To keep the uniform going for the two years, all tear and wears would be handled by patching with whatever fabric was available regardless of the texture or colour as long as the holes were mended. It thus became hard to tell exactly the colour of the original material. Just like the lyrics behind Dolly Parton's coat of many colours, every patch on the school shorts and dresses was sown with love.
