Sorry, having double PE, should have explained it better

Some of my friends in other classes have double PE, it's just I don't. The school probably hate me. That reminds me of a gear grinder. *goes to WGYG thread*

:lol: Also another thing that I like is I have no homework to do at the moment so I can get some valuable gaming time in.
 
Ha, same here bud. I can't wait to get out of here.

It oils my gears that after each day, the number of days I still need to attend decreases.
That's a very good way of looking at it actually, although I'm still in Year 9, when I guess you're in Year 11
 
I have no PE, I never have been good at athletic activities other than bowling :lol:.

Bowling the other day and I came 2nd, but the guy who came first was a really good cyclist/runner/general athlete so I used that as an excuse.:D
 
Yeah. Bloody timetable. You can't do anything in a single PE, but I have to live with it. Last couple if years we've had doubles, but not this year. :odd:

I have a single (1hr) PE lesson and it's long enough IMO...

Yes, Grade 11.

I'm a team captain (16 years old) in a league with people my age, 17, and 18.
 
Ah. That's pretty rubbish then. Personally longer lessons are better, since you can do more.
Even in rubbish lessons? Maybe not. Our lessons are 50 minutes, but on Wednesday's we have a short day finishing at 2.30pm when we normally finish at 3.10pm.

What time do you start school?
 
You finish early. We start lessons at 9.05 as well, but finsh at 3.45, with lunch from 1 until 2.15.

50 minutes? Tsh, 60 minutes is what I used to have to suffer. And we'd have double lessons 5-6 times a week. Wednesday in my final year (2006/07) was the worst: Double English, Maths, Double Science.

Absolutely hated it. The English and Science teachers were a bunch of ****s, truth be told.

What oils my gears? Music + Football Manager 2012. It's been a tough day but this combo is helping me unwind slightly.
 
Singing the Circle of Life while holding your cat proudly in the air has to be up there.

What oils my gears? This post! Made me laugh out loud! Thank you, akmuq!
 
^ Same.
Talking of songs, I challenge anyone not to smile once while listening to this one. (CAUTION, this song may get stuck in your head. :D)
 
You are the most cliche American musclehead out there, but I have to hand it to you that George Thorogood's music oils my gears. I saw him in concert a couple years ago, hilarious!

:lol:👍
