15 Things We Did At School That Today’s Students Will Never Get

Remember those good old days when we broke the rules and did brave things at school?

Part of what made school life interesting was the fun carried out by doing certain things we loved, while our teachers hated. This is where we unleashed our creativity, ingenuity, curiosity and ability to find possibilities of having fun amid the odds.

Students going to school today will never come to realize the underrated pleasure we used to have. They certainly do not relate to all those small struggles and tiny victories which usually came by when we intended to break the rules.

A lot has changed today and it is a good change. Student habits haven’t changed, though. There are new and better ways of doing the things we loved doing at school. We would like to thank one app for it!

Let us reflect back on our school life and remember all the things we did that any student today will never appreciate:

1. Steal your teacher’s cell number from somewhere & start calling them during class just to prevent them from teaching

2. Having that one person in class who would find unimaginable ways to hide their cell phone. Now we simply hide it in our socks or pockets!
