Ever do something in High School...that no one else ever did?

Question

I was the only person at my High School (at that time) to ever go through 3 years of High School without stepping foot EVER into the Gymnasium or having to actually take PE as a requirement.

I wasn't "challenged" in any way, I simply BSed my way out of the PE requirement, and skipped school everytime there was an assembly in the Gym.

What did you do?

Answer 1

I spent my entire last semester of my senior year in the hospital and got exempt from every exam. Since I went to a private school, they just "gave" me my last year based on my GPA. (idiots)
I broke over half the bones in my body, lost 5 teeth, was blind for 6 months, and had a HUGE piece of toboggan stuck through my leg for at least a week until they could figure out what specialist could get it out..
Graduation was just a riot with no friggin teeth. I had so much fun making crass jokes and used ketchup packets to squirt out fake blood, pretending my friends had hit me whenever kids or older people stared at me.
Wait a minute... I still do that..

Answer 2

Well, I went to a strict Catholic high school but one day I got mad when I found there was a bet going around about which of these two brothers in one of my classes I was going to date first - we fought like, well, Christians and heathens! So, I had a good friend of mine help me out a little and together we spread a school-wide rumour that I was gay. I got called into the VPs office and the chaplain and guidance counsellor were there and everything. They asked me if I had any questions about my sexuality and blah blah blah. I played along, told them I had a raging crush on the president of the student body (and what a body she had...BWA HA HA HA HA!!!)

The rumour never really went away, and I always thought it was funny how readily everyone believed it just because I didn't fit in to the mainstream (she's smart, well-dressed, and reads poetry without being told to by a teacher, must be gay!)

PS: I have lots of gay friends, I've never had a prob with that lifestyle, I'm not trashing anyone, this all happened over a decade ago, it was one of those 'seemed like a good idea at the time' thinhs, LOL!

Answer 3

Why, I wasn't challenged in high school either, but heck I used to skip classes to go to the gym and play basketball or some such sport for fun. I wasn't a jock, and was even the chess club president, but I did like sports a bunch. But to answer your question, I took a bunch wood from the shop class and built a steam room under the band-room where some steam pipes passed through and during the summer was able to pipe in and when the heat came on was able to use the steam room. Why heck in Maine when it gets -40 below, you can think of all kinds of reasons for a steam room (had showers down there too).

Answer 4

I was dating a guy that had gone away to college. I was going to visit him for the weekend and stay with a friend of mine in her dorm room. We had a fantastic weekend, but I didn't get a bit of homework done. I knew I had a test over "Jane Eyre." It was an essay and I hadn't even begun the book. So while the test was going on, I sat and wrote my boyfriend a letter. I knew I was screwed so I figured........why write an essay when I wouldn't know where to start. So obviously I turned nothing in when everyone else passed their tests forward at the end of class. A few days later when she had finished grading them, my teacher said, "Dee, you were absent that day. We need to schedule a time when you can make up the test." I merely said, "Yes Ma'am." And that was it. I read the book that weekend, took the test the next week and saved my little buttocks! Man.....someone smiled down on me that day!

Answer 5

Ha, I never did a single homework for the literature assignment, got F all the year only to make an A- in the Final and complete the course, next year I had Literature 2 whit the same teacher who after a picky commentary about my homework's that year preferred not to count them as part of my grades.

Answer 6

I was the only person to start a final exam, cuss the teacher out in the middle of the test, storm out of the room, go to the gym and wait for about 20 minutes, then go back into the classroom, pick up my test and tell the teacher that she wasn't going to give me a zero. I finished my test, turned it and got an "A".

Answer 7

I never took a book home. I had to walk about 1/4 a mile to the bus and hated carrying stuff. I did my work at school and got good enough grades on my tests and classwork that my lack of homework did not cause me to fail. By the time I was drivng I was so good at it I just did not see the point. I was on honor roll my senior year and I NEVER TOOK A BOOK HOME!!

Answer 8

I was camping at the school because the next morning they were selling yearbooks and I wanted to be first in line. My friend and I were bored so we got on to the roof by climbing on the trash bins. We ran around until we heard someone coming so we immediately fell on our stomach and didnt move. He got caught because they had a flashlight but they didnt see me. I waited until I saw 3 cop cars show up and I made a run for it. When I was about a mile away I reached in my pocket for my phone and it wasnt there. So I started to make my way back to my car all 007 like. When I got to my car I found my friend that was caught and he told me what happened to him. Then we decided we better go home and forget about the yearbooks. I got in my car started the engine and a cop showed up. He asked me if I was tired and then told me to have a good night. The next day when I got to school I got a yearbook but as the teacher handed it to me she asked me if I was the guy who ran from the cops.

Answer 9

I had sexually relations with two female teachers at the same time in high school. I was helping the one move in to the others house. When I was done, let's say I got an A.

Answer 10

I super-glued the doors to the high school shut. West Valley High School in Fairbanks, Alaska. I was a Teacher's Aid for the art department. It was the last day of school. The other TA and I were cataloguing supplies and found an unmarked box of super glue. So.....I used it. :) It was fun.

Answer 11

This sounds terrible now, (because of teenage obesity problems) but at the time Taco Bell had just come out with their $.39 tacos. We had an "Eat Off"...in the gym. lol! I won. At the time I was 5'11", 120lbs. Eating 61 tacos in one sitting...I was quite proud. I thought it strange when the school counselor approached me about bulimia...something I could've never imagined being. Just active and a love for tacos. ;-) Can't even look at one now without it going straight to my bum, but back in the day...
