"Tell us which teacher you'd sleep with or go pretend to have sex with a door"; - the way Emma would always fake being asleep during Truth or Dare; - I think someone got their finger stuck in a door; - and we made Emma levitate (not hard with a 32kg girl ;)) and Louise thought it was the work of the devil; - office duty; - fighting over lame stuff like who sat next to who in science; - going into the lowers seemed scary; - competitions to see who could remain silent for the entire bus ride; - the days when the school bully (you all know who I'm talking about ;)) was actually a friend; - being a trendoid seemed cool; - survivor swimming; - and Shane and Angel's relationship problems were a cause for concern.
