What is your opinion on the United Kingdom?

I wanted to join the Navy and see the world, but what did I see, I seen the sea

When family pets and grandparents died. In high school I was dumped the day before prom so that was also not a great moment.

When my great grandma died. I was in the 4th grade and I can still remember going into the bathroom to cry about it one day.

I wanted to play the flute in a musical pit orchestra. It took my music professor almost two years to tell me it wasn't going to happen and that I should consider teaching. No thank you!

Me. Very awkwardly.
Growing up, I was a big New Kids on the Block fan, Joey McIntyre was my favorite. 2 years ago on DD's drama club trip to NYC, we saw Waitress (Joey was playing Dr. Pomatter) and we got to meet the cast afterwards. You never know who all from the cast will be coming out, but as soon as Joey came out, I started freaking out. By the time he got to us, I was laughing/crying hysterically. I was embarrassed for myself, but I seriously couldn't control it. I blame it on the lack of sleep after traveling via bus all night with a driver who seemed to never have driven a bus at night before, almost hit a deer, broke his gas pedal, and didn't know how to read his GPS. But in all honesty, I'd probably behave the same way if I met him again right now. I thought the kids would think I was nuts, but they actually said it was the cutest thing.

I wanted to be a therapist or a teacher.

Bonus was that when I got to college, I wanted to be either a professor of philosophy or psychology.

My brother ran into someone who he thought looked like Bob Newhart at a book store. He made a very awkward comment about who he looked like and how he thought he was dead. He thought nothing of it at until until the next week he happened to have the tv on in the middle of the day and Bob Newhart showed up as a guest on the "Bonnie Hunt Show" and told the story!

Whenever I go out to eat, I require that they serve me my meat well done and with ketchup on top to add flavor. It's the best way.


(This is a lie, I do not do this.)

In the ‘90s we were walking down the street in New York City when george Michael ran into my older sister, scratching her cheek with the zipper on his leather jacket. He apologized and asked repeatedly if she was ok, and she just stared at him and didnt say a word.

White Castle burgers (if you can call them that) are gross.

Do you think White Castle fans don't know that? Of course they're gross! Even we don't know why we want them – but we want them all the same!

Nothing really, at least not in terms of education or a career. I just drifted in university because that's what one did.

 

[elphaba91]

Primary school (up to grade 6): Driven by my Mum.
High school (year 7 to 12): Mainly tram (plus a short walk to the tram stop) or sometimes driven.

 

[luv2cheer92]

Walked in elementary school.
Mom drove me for all of middle school.
In high school, my mom would drive us in together (about 45 min-1 hour or so, passing 3 high schools on the way haha). She worked at another school near mine. On days where I didn't have a sport after school, I would take a bus to the school my mom taught at and then she would drive me home. I wasn't old enough to get my driver's license until part of the way through my senior year. At that time, I would drop her off at her school and drive in on days where I didn't have something after school, then drive back to pick her up. But days where I had something, she would drop me off and pick me up. We spent a whole lot of time together those 4 years.

My dad took me (elementary school), I took the train (middle/parts of high school, my mom drove me (she taught at my high school).

 

[wilbret]

School was 30 miles away. My mom taught at the school, so I rode with her, pretty much until I was old enough to drive.
There was a bus stop in the nearest little town, but we had to drive to it. I barely recall riding it.

 

[Forevermarypoppins]

Walked everyday from K thru 12th grade with a one year exception: 7th grade.
That year my Junior HS was over 2 miles away and my dad drove me to school everyday, I walked home except for Catechism days. Then the boundaries changed, new JHS and walked again.

Neither of my kids ever walked to school, not one day.

 

[mjkacmom]

Go to college?

 

[Alicefan]

I was military so I did a lot of walking, biking and busing at different points. There was a girl at my jr. high that went by horse and buggy! I remember passing by her one day and this kid pulling the window of the bus down and yelling, "THE BELL RANG! HURRY UP! YAH! YAH!!!" LOL! Another kid worked at Food Lion so he showed up at the bus stop one day with a bunch of orange stickers that said, "assorted porkchops" and he proceeded to stick them all over the bus. That's what we called our bus. The assorted porkchop.

 

[lovin'fl]

Walked pretty far, to front of neighborhood, to bus stop and then bus.

I wanted to be a fashion designer and illustrator. Wound up working as an illustrator and designer in my 20s, but not in fashion. I designed for a company that specialized in Christmas decorations and illustrative work.
