Worlds Collide

Hi, yoshi here! Remember, I’m doing FFAF as well, feel free to stop by and make a post about…nothing!

Anyways, speaking of high school memories, and Diz mentioned the trapper keepers… When I was in school I had this one notebook I used for the entire time. It was OLD. But why did I keep it for so long?

Well, turns out, I was a doodler in school. Still am, really. But I used to draw on my notebook all the time. Well, my friends would also doodle on my book, or sign it, or just deface it LOL.

So here I was with a notebook that had so many memories of 3 years of high school. There was no way I was going to want a new one.

Ask me where that notebook is now, and I’ll probably have to say that it was thrown out with a lot of other old things that my parents had gotten rid of when they moved out of the old house. Ah the memories.

What memories of High school do you have?

Howdy all. Diz here from the newly purged music blog, songobsessed – go say hello and post for today’s FFAF!

I have come today to talk about school supplies – as a child of the 80’s, my favorite was the overpriced, velcroed piece of plastic, the Trapper Keeper. This was followed closely by looseleaf paper, but only if it was college ruled.

The one school supply I always thought was awesome when I was little was the teacher’s pen. You know the one – red on one side, blue on the other? Teachers, ‘fess up – did you covet those as much as the rest of this? Do you cackle getting to use one now?

Being a grown-up, I do miss the structure to the year that school gave. Working year-round takes all the magic out of those once “endless” summers. Kids, soak it up while you can! Or else, you know, teach for a living!

Happy FFAF guys!
