Today I had a new experience; Mr Walker (the one who I have immense fun impersonating, haha) made me go and have a shave because I looked scruffy. ("How long are you trying to grow your facial hair? Your beard's longer than mine!") He is obviously jealous

he's blatantly going all 'alpha male' because he's worried one of his students will have more testosterone than him.
xxxxx

*laughs* That's probably quite a good explaination, as Mr Walker probably has enough testosterone coursing through his veins to disqualify someone from the olympics. :P 'Alpha-male' is probably just how he sees himself, actually - which brings up very bizarre mental images of him and Mr Grant fighting like animals and trying to bite each other on the neck... :P

I bet that the school ensures they are terrible disposable razors as an extra punishment, or something, because schools tend to be unnecessarily vindictive like that. Especially administration. *mutters*

Also, I'm not laughing at you, but it's a rather funny experience. :DD Do you have some sort of dress code at your school?

That wouldn't suprise me at all, actually; but usually they do give people a day's notice before sending us to shave at school. My form-tutor hadn't even commented that I looked scruffy, but Mr Walker gave no quarter... :P

:D No, feel free! It amused me no end, really. Mr Walker cracks me up even when he's being very serious, and it was a fairly relaxed ticking off. :D Schooldays are, as they say, the best days of our lives... :p

Do you have some sort of dress code at your school?Oh, gods yes

[wanderlight]

I've frequently been mistaken for someone with a real job, and someone once assumed (in a fairly specific situation, and, in her defence, it was also slightly dark) that I could be the father of an eleven year-old child.

:DD Once, I was mistaken for an eleven-year-old child.

This is probably an exaggeration, but I look a couple of years younger than I am, due to being short.

Is your school a private school, then? Or just a public one with... a very specific dress code?

It was in a fairly specific situation - I was picking my sister up from a class that she attends in a school, and they had a meeting on for the parents - but people do tend to assume that I'm far older than I am. I haven't begun to abuse this yet, although I am going to very soon; but it has proved an endless source of amusement when people have offered me student discounts or assailed me with questionaires before retracting them when I've revealed my age...

It is a private one, yeah - and one with a very... specific headmaster. :P (He's very good, and runs a very tight ship, and is certainly a very intelligent man, and in certain situations a very nice one - but he is also the epitome of the subspecies poncy git. And not only is he very arrogant, but he also has a very odd way

[skwidfan]

Wow, you have facial hair now, I totally missed a few years... O_O

[anthon1]

:P

The first time I saw my school-friends after returning from Tour was immense fun - I had a leather jacket, blue-black hair, a little goattee* and a (fake) lip-ring. The expressions on their faces were priceless... :D

*Well, they called it a goattee; actually it was a barely-noticable patch of fuzz on my chin.

[skwidfan]

Oh wow.... :D funny funny funny, you must've had what my guyfriends have when they don't shave. But never ever pierce your face, that'd be too ridionkulous for words.

[anthon1]

I don't think I ever really would peirce my face - the only teensy possibility would be my eyebrow, and that is fairly unlikely. I had a conversation with Helen about piercings the other day, during which I expressed my vague inability to comprehend the idea of stabbing yourself and then walking around with shiny metal things stuck in your skin, so I doubt it's going to happen any time soon...

That said, there is a wonderful photo of me that may, may just become an icon in the near future of me with a lip ring and a jacket and black hair and a slightly fuzzy chin and a bandana, holding a cigarette and looking like a drug-dealer, which is entirely all Helen's fault...

[nosesaretasty]

Aww, poor Anto!!! *huggles* (Yes, I know I've already done that, but I felt like it :-P There's something about listening to Les Mis all day that puts me a in a generally hyper/huggly mood! :-D)

Have people stopped teasing you about it now? :-P

[anthon1]

Well, I've no longer got big cuts all over my face, so yes... :P
