Good memory
back in 3rd grade on the final day of school (breakup day) i was invited to help the 3rd grade teacher pack mini hampers (lollies/candy). the teachers told me these are from santa clause and the teacher admitted tome santa was not real anyway. i felt really mature too!

bad memory (embarrasing)

one day i was sitting in class. with the teacher yammering on about something i felt a pain in my stomach so i wanted to use the tiolet. I raised My hand and asked the teacher if i could go she said no! So i just sat there and my bowels moved and the whole classroom stunk. And the kids laughed at me for the remainder of the day. thankfully they left me alone the following day. being aspie i didn't have friends really until about 6th grade.

The best thing about school, was getting to go!!

The worst thing about school was when there was a day off, and I had to stay home and get tormented by my family.

Good/Bad?
Almost without exception, aside from the music, a nightmare every day. And when I grew up and began to teach kids myself I cringed every time I saw a kid flinch at bright lights, loud noises, crowds, being forced to catch a ball- and suggested to the parents that home schooling or schooling per the net should be considered, in most cases my advice was accepted, and the kids now grown to adults have turned out fine..which is more than can be said for most of those forced to conform and deal with the daily hell that school is for many of us.

Good: I had several of my works from art class shown on an art show when I was in high school. I even got to have a pancake breakfast there, and shown my mom what I did.

Bad: When I was in fourth grade, I couldn't participate in a school Christmas party because of a meltdown I had earlier, which meant I couldn't play any of the fun Christmas-themed games, like "Pin the Nose on Rudolph".

Bad: My 4th-grade teacher gave away all of my art supplies. I had been out sick for a week in early December, and the other kids used my stuff to make Christmas decorations for themselves. The teacher blamed me for not putting my name on every item in the box of art supplies that was clearly labelled with my name.

Good: Revenge! Afterward, I would sneak back in to the classroom during morning recess and steal random deserts from the other kid's sack lunches, and then eat them before they came back in. No one ever suspected me because no one ever paid any attention to me (except the bullies).

Getting excited for recess aND playing on thd playground. For some reason doing things fun at school that could anytime at home always seemed more fun. Music class was fun because I enjoyed not having to do school work.

I didn't enjoy school work and lectures. I was i was tough why education was valuble- probably would have enjoyed it more.

i paced in the backyard, flapping my fingers with the speed of lightening during recess, or walked back and forth on a pipe that served as a bridge over a hole in the ground.

there was a tiny girl with a baby voice who looked younger than her age, and i felt protective toward her, and thought she was cute and befriended her. other two girls wanted to help both me and her in math, and asked us to show up in a spot in the yard during recess so they can teach us. I didnt know how to say no, so I showed up, and when their backs were turned I bolted, and then I heard the small girl's voice calling my name, "wait for me." She has escaped too.

Good:
I loved 4th grade so much, I had a good amount of friends and I would play with them which I enjoyed so much
Bad (this is more funny and embarrassing than bad lol) :
Peeing on my chair when I was still in KG, I got really ashamed after being scolded by my mother lol I remember I was too lazy to go to the school's toilet haha

Good
Art class, I had the same brilliant teacher for five years, it was my weekly highlight in secondary school. I also enjoyed a full range of subjects including wood and metal work along with home economics.

Bad
So many to choose from... I think my first two years in school coloured my perception, the teacher shouted and screamed as a standard behaviour management method, for mistakes in our school work she would instruct us to make a fist on her table and would smack our knuckles with the side of her wooden ruler, she only ever used the side of her ruler, vicious woman. Anyone that misbehaved regretted it instantly; I hate the sight of wooden rulers to this day.

Later another ‘teacher’ would palm punch and hit the boys with thick text books on the head, I remember she would run from the back of the class wielding the maths text book and hit one particular boy over the head most days for his inability to comprehend the subject, for girls she would smack us over the head from behind, her standard threat was to scream that she was going ‘to put you through the wall’ if you did/didn’t do xyz. The headmaster operated through psychological abuse, it was not a nice place to be educated. Yeah secondary school was much better.

Bad, pretty much the whole thing. I was either scared to death, bullied and was always in trouble with someone weather it was the kids or the administration, usually for no apparent logical reason.

Good, graduating, maybe the odd time I won at something. It felt extremely great to prove once or twice a year that I didn't suck at absolutely everything.
