For me, I had Pre-School, Kindergarten, Grade school (which was grades 1-8, no middle school; I don't know anyone personally who attended anything called "middle school"), 4 grades of high school (freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior; very rarely referred to as grades 9, 10, 11 or 12 around these parts) and 4 years of college; again freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior. All in all, 18 years of hell.

Oh, come on - kindergarten wasn't that bad! Coloring and blocks and naps and snacks

I guess so. I did learn how to tie my shoes in Kindergarten. And a good thing I did, because I wouldn't want to have gone through grade school and high school as the only student who still didn't know how to tie his own shoes.

Because then you'd be that kid with Velcro shoes waaaaay after Velcro shoes were cool. Good to know you learned something useful in kindergarten. It's not just all fingerpainting and eating paste!

If Velcro shoes aren't cool, then this whole world has gone mad.

Speaking of tieing shoes, I just couldn't learn how to tie my shoes using one loop. I could only get the hang of using two loops, aka using bunny ears to tie shoes. My friends looked at me as if I was insane. "Why do you tie your shoes like that?" Kids tease each other about the smallest things. I eventually learned how to tie shoes using one loop.

I find it really annoying when you have to get ready and you have to do every small thing just to walk out the damn door!!! thats why I have slip on sneakers and i pre tied my boots so I just have slip them on... Im so lazy... BTW i think to be teased because you cant tie your shoes is just ridiculous!!!

I was exactly the same way, I eventually figured out how to do it with one loop but my routine was already set so I still use the 'bunny ears'
The kids made fun of me too, that's when i realized how easy it is to push someone over when they are crouched down tying their shoes

I used bunny ears for the longest time too - I just could not figure out how to wind one end around one loop to do the other tying method.
