The "get to 1,000 pages before 12/31/12" thread

It reminds me of once before I was homeschooled (I was in like, fourth grade) and we went to a gymnastics place for a field trip. ._. Anyway, there was this stupid thing where you were supposed to walk across the "lake" (which was really just this square hole with a bunch of stupid foam cubes filling it up) and the instructor warned us that if we dug ourselves too far under, the alligators that lived in the lake would eat us. -_- I mean, really. I might not have been in middle school at the time, but I'm not that stupid...

Found the song!
It's called "Don't stop, never give up". Listen to it, it's a cool song.

I'm pulling all these songs out of my school's House Glee performances last week. This year has been one of good House Glee.

 

[OwlLover]

I will.

That does sound pretty dumb It's funny how peeps try to adapt things to kids these days, but they go in the totally wrong direction

 

[OwlLover]

*nods* But that's something a kindergartener would find stupid. *shakes head*

Oh, speaking of kindergarten, did I ever tell you about my first conduct referral?

 

[Fierlin1182]

What's that? I don't think we have them here
But no, go ahead

Its a thing you get in regular schools in the US when you act really stupid in class

It stays on your record until you're 18

Okay, so we were in Art class, and Frankie (my friend) got out of the room and ran back in to me and said:

"Kirsten you gotta come see this!" I followed her to the window in the hall. It was snowing.

Guess what happens next?

We started chanting:
"HEY SNOW! HEY SNOW! ITS YOUR BIRTHDAY! HEY SNOW! HEY SNOW!" And danced like idiots

We got in BIG trouble for leaving the classroom... It was funny, though!

 

[Fierlin1182]

LOL. Interesting, sounds like some of the random things my friends and I randomly do at weird times
Occasionally in class, but only when the entire class is being rowdy.

How annoying about it being on your record though, that would annoy me o-o

This describes a conduct referral:

Yeah, I don't really care for it, either.

Hopefully, though, by the time I get out of highschool it'll be gone.

 

[Fierlin1182]

Hmmm, I see. Well, it's not something I've ever come across before. I was mildly bemused by how they offer you a choice of paper colour

Yea, that'd be good, wouldn't it. What're you planning on doing after school?
