im the new kid in town...

i would forget them if i didn't, so i do. it makes my mom mad when she can't lift my backpack, though.

Haha, my bag felt like I had twenty bricks in it today, because I pretty much decided my locker was a worthless piece of crap. It's tiny anyway, and we have to SHARE them.

Lol Anne, we don't really have hallways... our school is dumb that way, it's basically completely outdoors, like when you're waiting by the door of a classroom you're outside. It's a weird building (or series of buildings, I should say). Australian schools are weird. I kind of wish I could have stayed in Canada and gone to one of the more classic ones.

We had to share last year, but I complained and got my own. My locker partner was evil anyway.

no hallways? that's weird! I guess it's nice that they're trying to get you guys to go outside, but I dunno... it's weird.

plus, in Canada, it's cold! You'd like that! lol.

we have over 3000 freakin lockers in our school (plus all the gym lockers) and just under 1400 students, I THINK THEY COULD MAKE THEM A LITTLE BIT BIGGER!!!!!!!!!
we have a "book door" on top of our lockers, but mine is on the top and umm only 5'3" here! not easy to reach!!
so i was just like "forget this" and started just throwing them on the bottom of my locker, which is now broken, seriously (before i started dropping books) i can get to the person next to me's locker from mine, there are NO (literally) screws in the side of the thing, so my locker gets SMALLER (if thats possible)
my gym locker is bigger for gods sake!

Wow! they ARE bitty! we don't have book doors, those sound cool. of course, i'm 5'6 or so (and my friend, who is two years younger than me, is 5'8. she's taller than me when she's barefoot and i'm in SKATES!) i think the people who designed lockers had deranged minds...

yes same, i usually had one of my friends whos like 5'9" get my books out for me, while i was putting stuff in my booknag ont eh floor
he can reach the freakin locker door then he's kneeling on the ground (course he has the lower one, but i cant even reach the top of my locker, let alone the door!)

i hate it when my friends are taller than me. it makes me mad. lol.
that's insane! he's your age?! this guy is too tall for his own good!

Eek, those sound horrible. I've given up on mine now, because it's just too inconvenient to have to walk all the way there (of course, it means I have to kill my back, but I can live with that).

I'm about 5'3" or 5'4" (my locker is on the bottom, though ) I like being small, because I can squeeze through big crowds of people without them even noticing. My friend and I are always talking about the advantages of being small. It kind of annoys my other friend, though, because she's like six foot something (or at least CRAZILY tall). I bet if I stood next to her on skates I'd still be heaps shorter than her. I can't even imagine her on skates!!

back problems are preferable. besides, if it hurts enough, you get out of p.e. for a day .

i don't mind my height most of the time. it just bugs me that she's so much taller than me. and when she's on skates and I'm barefoot... i feel like a dwarf!!!!

Haha, not at my school. The P.E. teachers are all bulgy-eyed toads who yell at you if you say you can't do phys ed. You can hand them a note and they'll be like "Why can't you participate anyway? Why? WHY?" until you finally give in. They're horrible.

Haha, I'm imagining my super-tall friend on skates while I'm barefoot, and yipes, that would be freaky. She'd probably be almost twice my height!!

i have nice p.e. teachers. i got good at forging my dad's signature a couple years ago, and my friend and i sat out almost once every other week or so. i'm sure they got tired of us, but who cares? i really WAS in pain there!

scary, isn't it?

i hate p.e, i kept failing it.
I know what you mean, i can do my mums signature real easy like ^^

you have to work REALLY hard to fail p.e. here, but i hate it anyway. i only have 5 more credits to do, though, and i'm gonna do them this summer, and then i won't have any more EVER!!!!!
yup. i love forging my parents' signatures, it makes me feel all wicked doing it .

I don't mind P.E. It really depends what sport we're doing. In grade 8 we got to do rhythmic gymnastics (on a very basic level ) along with some normal gymnastics, so I was the best in the class But when we have to play football (or "footy" as they call it here) it's just plain annoying. Right now we're doing lacrosse, and I already have a fear of it because when I was 6 I got hit in the head with a hard lacrosse ball. It wasn't pretty.

I used to practice both my parents' signatures, but trying to forge my dad's is a complete waste of time. It's basically a scribble, but still it's impossible to make it look the same. My mom's is easier, though, so I use hers whenever I need to do some forging

i hate any and all p.e. rythmic gymnastics would be fun, but no! we just had to do ultimate Frisbee and volleyball and flag football (american football) and hockey and basketball and... ugh! i hate team sports! (apart from synchro, which doesn't count, because there are no boys on the synchro team who refuse to pass the ball to you!) last semester i had to take a weight training class, which wasn't as bad as all that, but it was still pretty bad. i got stronger, though, which was good. (not much, but definitely some !)

i was terrified of the ball as a kid! i used to play soccer, and i had this deathly fear of being hit. i was the worst player on a VERY bad team. *shrug* i quit.

My mom's the scribbler. not even she can make it look the same twice. some of her checks get bounced because the signature is so different from time to time

i have the same problem with my everyday writing. and i still dont like balls.

that it looks different every time, or that it's illegible?

balls are evil.

both actually.

lol.

fun. i forced myself to make mine legible. i can't stand not being able to read what i write.

oh you should see my dad's signature!
well his first name is Edward (hehe) not saying that last name
well his entire signature is two letters that take up half the line
its really funny...

My dad's signature looks totally different whenever he signs something. His is like one big unreadable letter and a bunch of scribbles.

nice. my mom's is kinda like that, but it's degenerating into all scribble. it's funny, actually.

Hahaha My mom's is actually legible.
I gave my History teacher a paper signed with my dad's signature and he thought I forged it.
-.-

that's funny! the really scribbly ones are the hardest to forge, though. i always go for my dad's, which is somewhat decipherable.

They are.
Though, my handwriting is crap and my mom's looks all neat, so its hard for me to do hers.
