PE. Is it like American PE? Wiffle ball and dodgeball?

Huckleberry Finn means that I am Finn as you know. First I thought to be just Finn, but it sounds so stupid that I abandoned it. I read Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn when I was 8 or 9, of course.

Finn MacCool would have been cooler.

I said it somewhere else too, but Lewis Trondheim is a French cartoon artist. It's not his ral name, but I have no idea what his real name is. Anyway, I just like the sound of it, and I once used it as a password somewhere, and now it's become my name for this forum.

It was sarcasm. I'm not, in any way, from American Samoa.

That's what you thought was funny? Don't ask me, I don't run the school...but PE is usually the first or last lesson of the day, seldom in the middle of the day.

But you have to get up earlier to go to PE than you usually do?  That doesn't make sense.

Normal lessons start at 8.30, PE starts at 8.15. Normal lessons are in the school, PE in a sports hall way off. Normal lessons don't require you to change, PE does.

No. He has to get changed before 8.15, and he has a longer way to school. So it's maybe half an hour...What's the big deal, Gustaf?
My school started at 7.30, and the last 18 months, after I'd moved to another part of the city, I had to be out of the house at 6.50 to catch my subway.

Lol...it isn't such a big deal nomrally, but at 1 a.m. it is, since I then get about 5 hours of sleep, sa compared to, say, Thursdays when I start at 11.25 a.m. and can thus be up late without it being a problem...it normally takes me about 10 minutes to my train station, 15 minutes to get to the city, and then another 8 minutes with the subway and finally, if I run, about 10 minutes to my school. Since I want to read our 2 morning papers before I leave home, I have to get up at roughly 2 hours before I start, so 8.30 means getting up at 6.30, and when it long after midnight that does seem a bit early.

But I wasn't trying to elecit sympathy or anything, I just mentioned t as an explanation earlier, and since it got weird thanks to MiamiU I brought it up again as a little joke...didn't work well though... Sad

I used to take the subway too. School buses don't make much sense inside cities...Almost everybody lives within walking range of the school anyways, and the rest don't only because they don't go to the nearest school.
I used to read the paper on the subway.

My username is the one I used back on the old forum... I can't remember why I chose it though.

BTW to get to College I have to get on a public bus at 7:30 which is also used to pick up a load of utterly evil kids going to school.
They have perfected an "exploding apple" trick... and one of the little bastards was sick all over the back window a few weeks back...
I hate them.

To get home I usually go on a public bus which goes to the nearest small town to where I live, and wait there for about half an hour for another bus which goes past where I live.

Living in the middle of nowhere has it's advantages, but transport is a major disadvantage.

You're somewhere in County Durham, right? Only place I've been to was the City of Durham, and that just for three hours or so in order to take a whole day to travel from York to Newcastle.
