This isn't how I remember my suspensions though. Each one was a holiday, loved every second. Get out of bed when I feel like it. Take a basketball round the local park and shoot hoops all day. Go down the school at lunchtime and meet my mates outside the gate, give them shit for still having to go to school.
The time they tried to expel me (for setting off a fire alarm. They'd had enough of me by this point) was a bit hairy, I really didn't want to have to join a new school, but my parents and a teacher who believed in me managed to persuade the board to reconsider.
The moral of the story is, I loved being suspended. The beating I took from Dad each time he was informed was worth it in the long run.
Wow great read and my kind of teenage antics. Although I was just as bad Id prob have had a ninja sword in my bag, lol.
Like you i was very lucky, seemed to be just split seconds ahead of everyone else and got off with so much by the skin of my teeth. We the lucky few!!!! Lol
