| okay, mama, done at slow speed |
conversation starter this week:
did you look forward to starting school (either elementary, junior high, senior high or Uni ?)
I think I always looked forward to the new school year, new teacher in elementary, new desk, new notebooks, new books to cover in brown paper bags.... new school shoes!!!
Of course there were also new PE uniforms that made even the skinny among us look fat, new KEDS to write our names on, new musical instruments to carry around all year in band and heavy wool uniforms in band complete with hat plumes that have been worn by hundreds of students (don't worry they were probably dry cleaned)
Did I tell you this was in sunny Florida?
the real excitement came in starting University.... setting up my own schedule, buying books, getting a USF t-shirt, and highlighters to ruin my new books with... good times!
A highlight for me was going to the church school out of state which meant staying in a dorm, whee! My second year of Uni was spent in TN and i loved the dorm experience! Remember it was a church school so they watched us like a hawk, we went to chapel every morning, and they frowned on wearing make up and jeans in the 70's. Still... I liked sort of being on my own, no parent to wake me if I didn't have an early class to attend, no parent to remind me to brush my teeth or not wear jeans.
I always liked learning, and was successful in it, so aside from coping with snotty students who made fun of a girl with big feet to grow into, I enjoyed school
OMG this is brilliant... if you have a drill bit like this and know how to use it!
