I remember in high school a friend and I just before getting no the bus to bring us home he had a string of ladyfinger fire crackers and we lit them and threw them into the senior lounge and then high-tailed it to the bus. As we were pulling away with the bus windows open we could hear the echoing "pop..pop,pop,pop,pop......"
In grade school we'd go outside for the first part of the lunch period, which was an hour, but we'd only get 20 minutes in the cafeteria to eat. The cafeteria was small, so they had to rotate us through in three groups according to grade. I could never gulp down a lunch in 20 minutes (I'm still a slow eater). So I would eat part of my lunch out on the playground, and then finish it in the cafeteria. But there was a strict rule that we weren't allowed to eat on the playground. I got caught once and got a detention. I was so upset at the injustice of it. It still kind of bothers me today, now that I think about it.
I was the kind of kid who never got into trouble. The rule about eating on the playground was in place so no one would litter on the playground. But I didn't litter; I just ate. I did it discreetly and put any trash back into my lunch bag to throw away in the cafeteria. If the rule was about littering, they should have made it about littering instead of forbidding eating. I remember tearfully trying to explain that the principal, and how he just couldn't give me a logical answer as to why what I did was "wrong." He liked me, and I'm sure he felt bad--of course he had to punish everyone fairly whether he liked them or not, but even he seemed to see that the rule made no sense. I was convinced this would be on my "permanent record."
I had er, problems at school, so quite a few. I remember tearing up a work sheet in class once. The teacher kept me back at lunch, with a roll of sellotape to stick it back together again.
One time in maths class both of the boys next to me, on my left and my right, got hold of two of the legs of my chair each and lifted my chair on top of the desk. The teacher didn't notice. He didn't last very long in that school.
I used to throw away my homework assignments in first grade, so I never had to do them. For some reason, the teacher didn’t check any homework the next day, so I managed to get away with it for that whole year.
In 8th grade, I was chasing a girl in the cafeteria. She was a tease and we had flirted with me in the past, but even as an 8th grader who didn't always pick up on social hints, it was obvious that she was not seriously interested in me. While chasing her, another girl pushed her out of the way to keep her away from me, and accidently knocked her down and broke her nose. She was never mad at me for chasing her, nor was she ever mad at the girl who broke her nose. She said that her parents were proud to hear that guys were chasing their daughter. I suspect that nowadays I'd be in trouble for sexual harassment, and the other girl would be in trouble for assault.
