Who cares. Go for it. Maybe the teacher will give you more advantages in class........that is until you dump her :lol:

Haha, maybe, I am on Half term at the moment so my next chance is on Monday
 
Between Christmas and Easter we get a week break. I don't know what you'd call it across the pond.

Same. My school has this thing where you buy flowers and they deliver them to the person in their class. I'm debating on giving one to the girl I like, but the period they deliver the flower to everyone is the one I have with the girl and she happens to sit right next to me. I'll be extremely embedded but I don't know how worth it it is. I really like her so I suppose I shouldn't care but I'm extremely shy. It's grinding my gears. I wish Valentine's day would disappear.

If she is a nice person then she would appreciate you expressing your feelings to her, and maybe more. If that doesn't happen then (Imo) she's a b***h! Go for it lad, you couldn't have that much to lose in my opinion!

My school does something similar too, but they don't deliver them. And actually, I'm in a situation like yours as well..
 
Don't mind me, I was supposed to leave school about 30 minutes ago, but stupid teacher who didn't know how to keep peoples' presentations to 2 minutes is peeing me off, everyone's taking well over 4.
 
A couple days ago, on Sunday, my dad and I went bike riding. Before that, I went into his office to tell him that I was ready to go. Right then, he happened to be typing on his journal on the computer. I quickly noticed that under February 12th, that day, that the sole entry was that he had sex with my mom. :yuck: Eugh! Yuck! Wish I didn't see that. Yeah, I know parents do that kind of stuff, but I don't want to ever know about it, it's just too much information. The worst part is, I can't seem to get it out of my mind. :crazy:

Go for the teacher! There were four babes in my school; three genuine, one worthwhile.
There are some real stunners in our school who are teachers. :drool: Quite distracting in the lesson though...

I'm alone as well tomorrow. Grinds my gears as well. But oh well.
As am I, but I dunno if you've seen some of my posts in the Infield about my thoughts (if not, and you want to know send me a PM) but being single may be that right thing, if you get what I mean.
Also related to the above, uncertainty GMG, as does worry, thinking about it too much and letting my mind wander to a certain person.
 
I'm alone today aswell. :(

However going out this evening to this under 18 nightclub, any tips on how to get a girl there???
 
Don't go there just to get a girl. One, because it's an under 18's event which means it'll be full of teen retards are two because you'll just set yourself up for disappointment. Go there to have a good time and meet new people, not just girls.
 
The AI on F1 2011. I was racing at Monaco, leading when I come across some backmarkers. I'm thinking "they'll move to the side and let me through" but instead they glue themselves to the racing line, and when I eventually get through Trulli tries to go up the inside of me (!) into the hairpin, spinning me out and then I get the bloody penalty. I ended up finishing 8th...:grumpy:

Online last night on Monaco coming up on the downhill hairpin some idiot pins me in to the wall all the way till we miss the turn, and I get the penalty!
 
Felt like I was gonna die. My heart had the lowest beats and I was really hot and lightheaded.

Dude. See a doctor. And be 100% honest about your training and the things you take. For example, Jack3d.

Sounds like Lewis Hamilton wrote the penalty system.
 
I tell you what grinds my gears... It's grinding my gears. I do it all the time in my new (since September) Corsa, and I have no idea why. I think it's because in my first car (a much older Corsa) I bent the selector forks by shifting too, er, firmly, and my last car (a Clio) had a much looser action, but I put that down to it being a Renault and therefore not really actually having a gearbox. My Corsa was brand new (in September) so the gearbox is a lot tighter, so it takes more force than I really want to apply to change gear, and as a result it grinds a lot.

It also feels horrible changing gear at low revs, which is a shame because I hardly ever shift above 2,500rpm. I drive somewhat sedately now, but I suppose that comes with age and the realisation that a 1.2 litre car with less horsepower than me isn't worth the petrol you waste, the wear you cause and the attention you draw to yourself by driving exuberantly.

So yeah, I wince every time I change gear now, I suppose it'll loosen up with age though. I'm sure Dennisch knows what I'm talking about.

My Gear Grinder today is that whenever I post my latest purchase in the SOYLP thread, everybody ignores it and never comments, which leads me to conclude I buy boring things :grumpy:

:lol:

Sorry to break it to you, but from my experience, baby stuff isn't crowd-pleasing, except maybe to other parents of little ones.
