SYNOPSIS

Synopsis

Adapted from the popular local novel of the same name, The Teenage Textbook will take you on a journey through some of life's greatest moment during puberty and adolescence.

The life and death of a pimple, the gut-wrenching, heart-rending experience of trying to make a phone call to your "crushee", the jerks, the jocks, the babes, the nerds. The Teenage Textbook is a universal directory that will guide you through the torrid tunnels of teenage trials and tribulations.

Owned by all students regardless of age, language, religion or faculty, it will bring true, lasting, more-permanent-than-Revlon-Colourstay-lipstick love to you if you follow its rules. Or will it?
