My daddy brought me in hes Ferrari or hes Bentley... and the teachers had no respect for us as we weren't a private school, so we all got black looks...
Hahahah! I'll have to tell my mates to pipe down, eh? I'd have expected you all to know I go to SHS given my sightings of buses on Stockton Road, and the fact my Facebook says it for those of you who are friends with me on there!
In all honesty, I'm very lucky to be in the school. I'm paying just a fraction of what most people pay, and if it wasn't for my primary school teacher in Year 6 pushing it, I wouldn't have managed to get in. I come from what could loosely be described as an underprivileged one parent family background, and my lifestyle differs massively from my fellow classmates'.
There's a few people who are up their own arses, but I found that people pipe down a bit as you progress through the school. Genuine excuses for being late have included maids not turning up to sort uniform out in the past - though this was in Year 7. Most people - myself included - now just play on the stereotype (so chances are if you've heard older kids saying it, they've just been pissing around).
I know a number of the people in my year group refused up until this year to use the bus, and have always insisted on using the Metro if they've had to go anywhere besides a car or taxi. That is in part why nobody knows I take photos of buses, though it's fairly common knowledge that I should be able to answer any specific timetable query.
