Hey guys, I just figured I’d share my jumper with you all; in Australia Year 12 is the last year of highschool (the year you turn 18, which I think is the same for most countries bar the name of the school year), after which you do whatever it is people do with their lives be it University (or College for Americans and possibly others), apprenticeships, etc. and in this last year we all get the option to purchase a jumper with our year of graduation, and chosen nickname on the back.

I couldn’t think of anything so eventually I decided to go with VR32 (the codename of the Virtual Boy) because when else am I going to get VR32 on a shirt instead of VB or Virtual Boy, and in case of the minuscule possibility that I forget my love for the little system (WHICH I WILL BUY THIS YEAR… MAYBE… HOPEFULLY…).

The jumper itself is a Navy Blue colour (which isn’t really represented in the first picture), and all the design stuff feels like an iron on but is probably sewed in (it feels like a plate on the rest of the jumper – but hopefully as it is worn more it will soften).

So yeah; pretty cool, I think.

Above is the front of the jumper, below is the back.

Congrats on finishing year 12! I love how your school gave the option for the jacket like this and I love your choice of nickname on it too 😉

Reminds me that the license plate on my motorcycle says VB-32

Thanks RetroNintendoNerd :)… Buuuut I’ve still only about halfway through (I’ll get there though).

Nice Thunderstruck! (Looks like I’ve “graduated” to become a VB gamer as well).
