Why thank you- Ive just made my first guide entry : school leavers prank./
Welcome ManChicago ^. .^
Clelba Posted May 18, 2001
It's a good entry, well done. have you entered it for the peer review? i think you should maybe. um, i'm in Y11, and our year need a prank for tuesday, except it can only be a last minute one unfortunately. there were rumours going around the teachers that we were all going to set our mobile phones to ring in assembly today cos it was our last assembly, but noone was, but the headmistress got all uptight and said no year 11s were allowed into assembly, even though it was some people's last ever, which was really mean. yet she's still making us all go to speech day tomorrow (yes, on a saturday!!) where we *could* do a lot more damage... but hey.
last year the sixth form all brought in a plastic gnome each and put them in random places around the school. that was a really good one.
um, if you want to put a link in a forum, type it in as it is, GuideML won't work in forums because they're all in plain text.
well, cya around!

Ahh we have this great guy called Jerry adams ahem i mean Doc Miles. (hes the splitting image) Even so, he makes the year 11s and uvi have specaial assemblies.
And yeah, we made the phones go off for a good ten minuites before he botherd asking us to switch them off.
Ahh - i kind of noticed that after i did it then didnt know how to go back and change it. Is there a way to chagne one thats allready sent?
Anyways, good luck on your GCSEs.

there's no way to change postings that are already posted, if you want to change it, just post another message saying what was wrong, but it's not really important. I think the mobile phones thing would've been a bit stupid, we have very strict rules on mobile phones. there's even a special detention for people found with their phones switched on in school time! it's a bit stupid really.

Yeah - Our head of sixth said to the entire sixth I know you've all got phones on you and as long as i dont see them, then i wont conveascate them. At anyrate, all the teachers are SUPPOSED to nick em, but mostly they don.
Mr Oldfield had a good version - he would make one phonecall wherever he liked then gave the phone back. NOw that was amusing in the middle of a physics lesson.

sounds a bit strange...
i had to go to speech day today an it weren't good. 2 1/2 hours sitting in the same position tends to make your bum hurt a bit. as i have found from owing, in fact. but it's worse at speech day.

Oh no - now speach day was something alltogether different. The parents put bets on how long Jerry adams i mean doc miles would go on for. Was his shortest speach ever at twenty minuites.
The problem is he does a speach at the prom as well. Unfortunatly, at the sixth form one, one guy was just slightly tipsy and yelled well i cant repeat it here, but needless to say he didnt stop.

Clelba Posted May 19, 2001
oh god, how do i type and eatc an icecream at the sam time?
none of the speevches wrere *too* long, but put together they were hell. we don't get a *prom*. we have the May Ball which is similar i guess,m but that's just for 6th form. um...
eh.

that sounds like a title for a review.
How to type and eat icecream at the same time.
hmmm
perhaps slightly limited though.

manChicago Posted May 19, 2001
Mind you, if you have five arms (like I do) then you can eat and type at the same time. Probably more.
Welcome ManChicago ^. .^
manChicago Posted May 20, 2001
five. The reasoning being that i dont have a girlfriend (or didnt at the time) was because i either had five arms or i stank - but im assured that i dont smell (and i shower every morning) so i must have five arms.
