<p>The shoelace, I think, was suggestive of what they can’t put in a PG-13 film, which doesn’t make it less bizarre.
Thumbs down for this movie in my book. Although I loved Rupert Grint, but I love him in anything…</p>
<p>My favorite page in all of the books is page 625 of the American version of Deathly Hallows (I don’t want to be misleading for those who read the British version…and who undoubtedly have different page numbers than me). </p>
<p>I’m loving the short and ever shorter condensations of this thread. Yale, jam, England, Food Network, Yale. They’re SO unbelievably accurate. </p>
<p>This really didn’t go anywhere while I was away, did it? </p>
<p>And unfortunately the incoming freshman grade at my school does not have high prospects. They all look like overconfident tools!</p>
<p>The freshmen at my school (or “year sevens” as we call them) were getting more and more obnoxious every year I was there. When I went into year 7 we were all wide eyed and terrified, socks pulled up around our knees, oversized blazers hanging over our tiny frames… etc. By the time I left, the incoming year 7s had tiny little skirts, high heels, makeup all over the place, ranting and screaming whenever they got the chance, TALKING BACK TO 6TH FORMERS!!! Which was unheard of in my day. You’re supposed to respect 6th formers (or seniors/juniors as you’d call them).</p>
<p>Do any of you guys have uniforms at your school?</p>
<p>I do not know what an otter pop is but I’m guessing it’s nothing to with semi-aquatic mammals.</p>
<p>YES! EXACTLY. That is completely what happened with this freshman class. They’re all slutty and high-heeled, and the guys all think they’re guidos.
When I started high school I had a backpack the size of my entire torso, was excited by every aspect of life for the first 3 months, and practically danced around every time an upperclassman was nice to me. </p>
<p>What has happened to the youth of our world? They used to be so innocent. </p>
<p>We don’t have uniforms, although I have always wanted to wear one for like a week just see what it would be like.</p>
<p>hey, i miss you all, and welcome to “lemons”, and great summarization Puert-ninja of the best thread in the universe. i have had freakin volleyball every day, 4 hours a day after school, then i try to do some HW< and fall into bed in exhaustion at midnight or beyond, up at 5:30, our school starts at 7 am, urrgggg, so no CC for me lately. Is everyone pumped about being seniors??</p>
<p>school’s started for me and this whole “senior” thing STILLLL amazes me! hahah =]</p>
<p>we’ve missed you emily!!! hope volleyball’s going well!!! GOOD LUCK with your games and stuff! woooow FOUR hours after school and school starts at 7??? busy busy busy. hope you’re still having fun though!</p>
<p>what’s an otter pop? i’ve never heard of it before either…</p>
<p>I KNOOOOW itsbeenreal and portugueseninja—SO TRUE about the incoming sophomores (freshmen still at the junior high) buuuut still. they dress TOTALLY different (hahah i totally wore like a pink polo and nice jeans and shoes the first day of high school…carefully brushed hair and HUGE backpack with books in it and everything.) and some of them are just kinda rude. like i tried to help a kid one day because he was totally lost and he was like “WELL i want to find my own class. and i want to be late. not cool to be super early” and i’m thinking “yes, and if you’re late, there’ll be nobody in the halls to help you. smart.” but anyways. his attitude bugged me. </p>
<p>haha i love the variety of topics we’ve discussed. hahahaaha.</p>
<p>It’s just quiet because people are going back to school now. When applications are in and decisions day is getting closer it will liven up again.</p>
<p>Every time I say anything like that I freak myself out.</p>
<p>Yes, people are getting back to school now (like me!) so it’s quiet.
Otter pops…I usually call them freeze pops! They’re the thing plastic tubes of artificially flavored juice and you freeze them and tada, popsicle!</p>
<p>“Did you know in England they call them ice lollies?”</p>
<p>Lolz. It’s true. We do call them that. Although actually an ice lolly is more used for the kind on a stick. I think we use “freeze pop” or something similar for the kind that you suck out of the plastic tube though.</p>
<p>But when you say lolly you gotta say it Englishy, not in an American accent, that makes it sound too cool.</p>
<p>That’s what I meant…I didn’t mean the freezer pops (which is what I always called them, too), I meant what we call popsicles you call ice lollies. </p>
<p>Jusssayin. (And who might’ve taught me this little tidbit of information? CHARLIE MCDONNELL!!)</p>
<p>otter pop? hahahahah. that sounds so funny.
ice lolly is like super cute.</p>
<p>i just say popsicle for all kinds of fruity frozen stick things. or ice pop? occasionally? when i feel like being all special. hahaha.</p>
<p>this thread is like dying. SAAAAAAAD.
then again, i haven’t really been checking it much either. with school and all the other stuff that comes along with it. such a joyyyy. hahaha. joooking. but everything’s exciting and so much is happening. i love being busy again.</p>
<p>*coming back from a 3-week-stint-off-facebook-AND-cc:
LOL. FACEBOOK. THE ULTIMATE TIME-WASTER.
that and youtube are equal first.
come early decision ap. time (just under two months), and this place will be flooded again. i guarantee it.</p>
however, little girls still manage to find ways to look slutty</p>
