I also carry my backpack around due to being incredibly clumsy: when I go up staircases carrying my stuff, I trip on the top stair EVERY TIME and throw my stuff everywhere. Then idiots kick it around for fun and it takes me almost all of the 10 minutes I have between classes to gather it back up.

On that, we're also forbidden to have our backpacks/sportsbags/etc. out of our lockers. I call shenanigans: I NEED MY FREAKIN BACKPACK. If I was able to, I'd explain why to the principals but chances are, they'd roll their eyes. Personally, I don't want people carrying my stuff for me, even with my ankles acting up constantly; that's why I use the messenger bag I have.
Major update.

Today I found out that if you have a tote bag/really big purse at my school, you will be suspended three days AND THE POLICE WILL BE NOTIFIED because apparently you are defying authority.

Does anybody else find this rule completely and totally batsh*t? Sorry for the language, but this is just freakin' stupid. I'm getting sick and tired of this already; I have to leave my backpack in the second floor main office at lunch because we're not allowed to have them, and I'm actually tempted to just scream my head off about it because the stupid-butt secretary left BEFORE lunch was over and locked the office! I couldn't get my backpack and ended up being late for my last class. -__-

The main reason I carry my backpack the whole day is because I refuse to use my locker due to immature s***heads who literally SHOVE me away from my locker just to get to theirs; I've reported them time and time again last year, but was anything done? Nope.

I've seriously had it, I'm really tempted to send an aggravated letter to the school board because this is NOT fair.

To me, it sounds as tho your school governers are smoking something cuz that rule is stupid. At my old school, the only ways to get suspended were to either be caught cheating on a test, or fighting.


No, you don't get it, that's why I'm telling you.
You think you get it, which isn't the same as
actually getting it. Get it?

Too many! No make up, no nail varnish, no jewellery except watches and small silver studs, no chewing gum, no crisps or 'unhealthy' food, no going on the astro turf at lunch times, no standing in the corridors, no visitors from other forms in your form room (though some teachers are more acceptable about this one), only black or blue pen, skirt at exact knee length, no black trousers, no alternative white blouses except the ones the school supplier stock (which are twenty freaken pounds a blouse. PEOPLE HAVE TO LEAVE BECAUSE THE UNIFORM IS TOO EXPENSIVE!) UGH! So many stupid rules D: Oh, and shoes only allowed to be black, no high heels, sandals, sling backs, open toe, patterns or anything like that.

More: Only allocated school scarf from stockists (£10) Coat only allowed to be black and plain (so no fashion trench coats or anything like that), only PE jumpers to be worn with PE kit.

WHAT is the point of all these idiotic rules? I know some aren't stupid as just plain unessecary. Get this; we're allowed our phones, but only if we keep them OFF. FTW?? We're not allowed to play football either, or wear trousers. It's an all girls school. No ipods, no bringing in more than £5 for the canteen (don't ask why, it's £2.50 for a salad when it was once £1.40 cuz of rising prices) but no one bothers checking that, so hey nonny nonny. No using your library card to get books out for other people, no pooing in the corridor etc... xD No visiting the boys school before school and during lunch, no leaving the school premises, no using the toilet during the lesson, straight detention for walking out a lesson, no shouting, swearing or hugging other girls. I do my friends but not in a tight hug while I try and squeeze a bewbie without her noticing hug though xD

We aren't allowed fizzy drinks or crisps at out school! So they take away our identity with uniforms but then they tell us what to eat? If i want black teeth and to weigh 63 stone thats my choice, you can't force adults to change their diets, why should it be any different with kids?

Those sound retarded. O.o My school's actually weird considering the rules that we DON'T have. There are no rules telling you not to have sex in the school, as long as it's not r@pe. Nobody, save for my Geography teacher last year, seems to care about any clothing rules. There's a smoke pit right out front of the school, but nobody does anything about it. Oh, and because in Canada the police don't seem to care if you smoke we'ed (as long as you don't sell it without a permit), people are allowed to smoke joints just off school property. Sure it's not the school's business then, but shouldn't they call someone to take care of it? At least have the cops talk to them or something... -.-

Hm, let's see, I graduated last year, but my sister's still go to the same school.

No flip-flops (which I now understand, my cousin was playing soccer in flip-flops, fell down, and her toes almost got "de-gloved").
No jewelry (for religious reasons since it's a religious-based school, but the teachers are really lenient about it).
Only natural colored hair.
Only natural, or mostly natural nail polish.
If you are going to sit on the floor, you have to be where the teacher can see you.
No physical contact between boys and girls (unless you're related, that's a funny story, really).
Exchange students must speak english.
Myspace is blocked (though I've never cared).
Cell phones are to be turned off and left in your locker until after school.
Long, modest dress code (the principle wants uniforms, and has so far only managed to get it passed for the teachers).
If you are on the D and F list, then you aren't allowed to go one field trips, or participate in sports.
At banquets if you wear a dress, it can't be sleeveless, and shawls are not allowed.

Oh, and my favorite isn't really a rule: The high school math teacher has you do a whole assignment, then picks five problems from it that count for your grade. You could get everything but one or two problems right that the teacher just so happens to pick, so you get a B or C

And lastly, the music teacher seems to think her plans can come before everything else in your life. In fact, it becomes your life. Once you join a music group, there's no turning back. The only reasons you can miss a performance is if you are vomitting, someone in your immediate family has died, or you died. Other than that, you are charged 5 dollars for every minute you are late (but there's no one to enforce that, since it isn't backed by the school, so if you can put up with the nagging, you don't have to pay)


I must be a good actor. You actually seem to think I'm interested.

Now that's just rude. -.- Not all of them can speak perfect 100% English; we had a transfer student my freshmen year and she jumped between her native language - Chinese, I can't remember specifically which type - and English a lot because she didn't remember very many words.

I agree. In my school they have special lessons for exchange students who don't speak much English, then when they are quite fluent they can join everyone else. I've been to their classroom and they don't do much. Just mess around and draw on the board. But they're all really lovely.

Oh yes, at my school every games website is blocked, any website that involves chats with others, email servers, even some research sites are blocked! It's impossible trying to find a site that isn't blocked and if you go on too many blocked sites, you get put in detention even if it's an accident! And what does it matter since you can't access them anyway to use? TDP is blocked on the school computers, so is DeviantArt (classified as tacky, questionable and ILLEGAL!)
