I know, right. But at the same time, it's oddly entertaining. Like every time I think about it, I smile. Of course, I could just be channeling my friend. Last year she would come up to me at school and be like "Guess what? I'm not wearing pants." She was very strange but she moved away this summer and I miss her like crazy. The girls at my school always wear the skirts unless it's winter. During winter we occasionally wear pants. (I have a very strict dress code that's only a step down from a uniform.) So when she would say she wasn't wearing pants, it cause because she was wearing a skirt. xD I miss her soooo much. I don't know how I'll get though Spanish without her.

I just edited that post....I added the reasoning behind me entertainment. Of course, the fact that it is 1:25 for me is deff a factor.

Your school doesn't sound fun Roki. Mine tried to be similar my Junior year but almost none of the kids actually adhered to the dress code after the first semester. Girls had to wear a shirt that came up to their collarbones and Guys were the same except they had to have collars on their shirts. They had to wear their shirt tucked into their pants and had to wear belts. Girls weren't allowed vneck square neck or even scoop necked tops. No miniskirts even if they had leggings on underneath and no holes in any of the jeans even the ones designed like that or that had a patch on or behind them. We hated it and we rebelled cause we live in a small town and most of what the principal wanted was almost impossible to find. Especially on the shirts to your collarbones without those necks on them. The parents were just as mad as the kids if not madder because they had to go out and buy all new clothes because the dress code pretty much banned everything in the kids closet. That was actually the case. All of my shirts are pretty tasteful but they do have scoop and v necks on them.

Here are some pics: (I'm basically raiding facebook...)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[The kid in the blue shirt] I don't know why so many people are out of dress code here. It must be a pep-rally or the end of the year. We have a day where you can wear any school-related shirt you want in the week before exams.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Seph!] This is the "no pants" girl I mentioned a few posts ago during Spanish class. Yes, our teacher was so oblivious that I was able to stand up and get that picture during class. (We aren't allowed to have camera's out during class.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Photobucket] We have way too much fun with this thing, but it shows some of what we're wearing. (I'm not in this pic, even though I'm writing "we.")
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[More Photobucket] Jewelry. She wears tons and the school doesn't care.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[1]-[2] My friends and I doing "See no evil. Hear no evil. Speak no evil." for Halloween freshman year. (I'm on the left.) If you replace the jeans with khaki pants and take away the monkey tails (which you can only kinda see here) you would have our dress code.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Script Reading] We were doing some stupid play in World History, freshman year, in this pic....
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[1]-[2] I don't know what's going on here...they play-fight all the time. But they are good dress code shots.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[1]-[2] Group pics freshman year with me and my friends (I'm on the right in both). We planed our outfits that day, so that's why we're all wearing similar stuff. Again, good dress code shots.

I've been going to this school since kindergarten. I'm so used to it, I can't imagine having to pick out something different to wear everyday. My friends already know my entire wardrobe as it it! How could I wear it every single day!?

The kids in my school wouldn't survive. Almost all of the guys are growing beards or at least not shaving because they don't feel like it or think it's cool. What about hair? We have a no crazy color rule as well as hairstyles but I knew one girl who could dye her hair an eye popping shade of red and a guy who had a mohawk yet they did nothing to them. I would hate not being able to dress like I want. Pretty much none of my pants have a belt loop on them and I only have a few skirts.

Funny. My Dad is half Mexican, but I don't speak Spanish. Neither does he, since he didn't live with his parents. He even makes fun of the Spanish language/accent sometimes.
My mom says Mexican Spanish sounds like baby talk, but that's because she's Swedish and holds a grudge.
I lived in So-Cal, and I was in a very Hispanic society.
I don't even like Mexican food gonk
Roki, I wouldn't survive in your school. I'm so self conscious, I will wear my jacket year-round in 30 degree Celsius weather with 80% humidity. And I haven't worn a skirt since my grandpa's funeral...fourth grade.
Is Velvet Puppet moving? Where to? (Don't say Texas xd )
