Gosh, I don't remember!!! But I do remember the first few days being absolutely hellish. I hated school sports, I can't even tell you how much.

If we even *thought* about running around the gym in non-regulation shoes, that would've be grounds for prison.

Durnit, he stayed oddly silent on the subject! I think I said some very nasty things at him that week.

Heh heh...

I wish I could remember about the shoes! I don't remember having to run barefoot, but I do remember total and repeated humiliation.
... And I bet I can relate to the crazy crush thing, too, hehe. As soon as you open my diary there's a picture of two hotties from summer camp.

Ha ha! I think they would be a bit puzzled by a dollar bill in the plate now. Although saying that, my friend Alex once found a US $100 bill lying on the street in south London, ripped up into the tiniest pieces. He spent ages collecting them all and then we sent it to some friends in America, who taped it together. The bank lady there was really surprised and spent ages surmising with them about why it was ripped up, but they got their money in the end!
