I Was Schooled

Who says I didn't learn in school For me it was a lesson cascade In science class, I learned to draw, And that it, didn't help my grade I learned, I liked to look at girls Which I did too much every day I managed to catch a girls eye, Then learned I had nothing to say Caught looking a little too low With a smirk, I tried to look cool Then she suddenly slapped my face! Who says I didn't learn in school!

I must have attended the same school. There was a girl Vicky in Grade seven who was well developed for her age. She encouraged me to touch her breasts and then slapped me when I obliged. Of course I had no regrets.

I'm sure! I wouldn't either. In the seventh grade a girl told me another girl said she would go with me if I asked her. I said, "Go where?" She said, "Go steady, silly!"....oh......80)

Oh there's much more to learn in school than math and history - very droll, Pat!

If I'm sad, all I have to do is read a Pat Adams poem!

"Learning is in inverse proportion to the 'ouch' uttered by the student." -- Newton's 4th Law of Physics. LOL. Enjoyed! :) gw
