Unlike rachel, I didn't get caught.<BR/><BR/>Now I wonder two things: Did the teachers know and were just glad I was quietly reading? And how much more would I have learnt if I'd had the patience to listen to what the teacher said instead of reading escapist fiction?<BR/><BR/>I shall never know.fairyhedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141089706966852951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-75135797551735587662008-01-11T05:43:00.000-06:002008-01-11T05:43:00.000-06:00In the 6th grade, I used charge my classmates mone...In the 6th grade, I used charge my classmates money by writing peoples' lines for them, and forging their parents' names on their signed papers.

I remember getting so hungry in the mornings that I would eat the dried rice. Really disgusting now that I look back on it.<BR/><BR/>I also took one of Myste's barbie dolls to show and tell and bit the nose off. I told her I didn't know who had done it. I have since confessed :)Aggiedoonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01441396426221511658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-46987630033426105132007-12-14T15:45:00.000-06:002007-12-14T15:45:00.000-06:00My first grade teacher painted her nails with clea...My first grade teacher painted her nails with clear nail polish. I didn't know anything about clear nail polish when I was that little, but I would see how shiny her nails were when she passed out pages. So, to make my nails shinny I would lick my thumb nail (btw, it only stays for about 20 seconds). I thought I was way cool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-87152253301533788252007-12-14T14:30:00.000-06:002007-12-14T14:30:00.000-06:00I stole a toy tractor from Temple Baptist Church p...I stole a toy tractor from Temple Baptist Church pre-school.pacatruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04125048243775811714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-72457359218346944882007-12-14T13:48:00.000-06:002007-12-14T13:48:00.000-06:00The teacher took a book away from me EVERY SINGLE ...The teacher took a book away from me EVERY SINGLE DAY. I'd get bored in class, see, and bring out a book to read. Apparently I wasn't very good at concealing them, because I was inevitably busted. I'd get it back at the end of the day and finish the book on the bus ride home. Oddly, that was the extent of my punishment. <BR/><BR/>Not that this is a revelation to my family, but I doubt I'd ever told you this story.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06018153717290306059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-41745981247835448342007-12-14T11:14:00.000-06:002007-12-14T11:14:00.000-06:00This is fun!I can remember that my parents expecte...This is fun!<BR/><BR/>I can remember that my parents expected PERFECTION out of me, even in 2nd grade. So when we would get our graded papers I would take all the B's out and anything worse and throw them in the garbage so all they would see were the A's. That plan failed after the 1st 6 weeks when I brought a B home in Math and all they ever saw was A's.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
