Pillow Case Skirt?

Haha yeah the title sounds pretty random if you don’t end up reading my short story to it.

As I am typing, I am listening/watching the show What Not To Wear. The show is airs on TLC and is a show that helps teach people how to dress appropriately. Well today was their 250th episode so they found someone who had the worst possible wardrobe they’ve ever seen so far. So yeah, this lady’s is pretty bad. She takes pillow cases and uses them as skirts! Like in past episodes, the people would wear like clothes that were either too reveling, mens clothes, or just too baggy for them. This lady wears pillow cases. That’s pretty bad. I mean, like she literally took the pillow case and just cut the end and made a skirt out of it. At least in the end, the lady will learn to shop right and not have to make anymore pillow case clothes XD.

This week was pretty lazy. I mean, I don’t want to get into the whole thing. Except for social studies, since it’s pretty odd. Midterms were pretty easy. I did well on them.

So during Social Studies we were taking midterms Thursday and Friday [today]. So here are some of the odd things that happened. Just before I continue, I just want to give you a 411 on stuff about my school. Well we have 9 classes that we attend everyday. Each class is 40 minutes long.

Social Studies 8th period on Thursday. We go in, she makes us line up outside and she is individually placing everyone in seats because we have to be spread out for the midterms. We’re not allowed to get up once we get to our seat. So we sit down, and she’s like “DO NOT TALK THIS IS IMPORTANT.” So we are silent. Then she asks if any of us need a pencil or if we need to sharpen our pencils. Okay so those who need to sharpen their pencils raise their hands, then my teacher goes “Okay no ones allowed to sharpen their pencils” So then she gave us pencils and we started. Then she said “No questions until 5 minutes after the period, I have to do some business first.” So then we took the test. Then my friend raised their hand to spit out their gum and my teacher goes “Okay,, now just cause you kept raising your hand, no questions until 5 before the period ends.” We’re like WOW. How can you do that during a midterm? Not let us ask any questions and the fact that we didn’t learn a whole unit that was on the midterm. So then when she did answer questions, she was like “Run, Run HURRY UP,” She was soo annoying. There is so much more, but I should end this soon.

Thank you! :) Aw don’t worry; I haven’t felt up to returning comments either. D:

LOL thank you! ^_^ I know I’m going to drop a few domains though, because I don’t like the names anymore and I can put some of my projects together. :)

Haha yeah, I hope our car comes back soon too. :O

Yeah, I think people should be more considerate. It is also summer here so that’s why I had the open toed shoes hahaha.

They always say to respect your elders but sometimes I find them rather rude. :O

Ooh, Twilight. I can’t believe her mum just threw it out though. That’s unbelievable… very strict parents there. I mean I’d understand the rest of the series because they have mature scenes, but eep!

I have heard about What Not To Wear. I personally think the ladies are snobs though, the way they think. LOL. No offense to anyone who likes them but I don’t really.

I think it is definitely weird to wear a pillowcase though. Some things get trendy, but wearing a pillowcase skirt is definitely not. Did she run out of clothes or something? It sounds like she was desperate!

What I keep thinking about in your exam is what if someone wanted to go to the toilet, or it was an emergency? Of course they would need to ask a question. Some teachers are too strict, too angry.

Your classes seem pretty short; in high school ours were about an hour long. And we only had about 6 classes a day. They changed it from 40 minutes because 40 minutes was too short. :P

I know you shouldn’t talk in an exam, but you can’t totally restrict from asking questions when they could be about the test.

  1. How is the weather currently?
    Coolish. It’s not that hot today. :)
  2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”?
    Not really! Sometimes I just run out of ideas and I just move onto something else and forget about it, and it might come back. ^^
  3. How long have you been web-designing?
    Err since 2001, so about 8 years ish. :P

I’m glad to know that now your parents have to say anything you study.

haha you were so stuffed, it’s good. I’m good, thanks :)

I have not heard about What Not To Wear. wow can not believe that a lady used pillowcases to get a skirt, it’s pathetic and unoriginal. That woman must be desperate, because if she does that?

Your classes seem pretty short; in high school my clases were about an 50 minutes long. The teacher was too strict. Certainly, one can not talk ona test, but if you need to ask a question, you do.

It’s great that your midterms have gone well, good for you.

Questions
1. How is the weather currently? Cold and rainy.
2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”? This week I feel less inspired, I guess it’s because I’m tired of studying for my exams.
3. How long have you been web-designing? 1 year more or less.

I’ve never heard of that show. Wearing pillow cases is definitively weird. She run out of clothes or what?

I usually have 6 or 7 classes every day. My classes are 40 minutes long too. How long is your lunch? Ours is 15 minutes, but from next week it will be 20 minutes. LOL! xD

I don’t have Social Studies. Your teacher seems pretty strict. I mean you can’t even sharpen your pencil. WTF? And you can’t even ask questions. Crazy!

  1. How is the weather currently?

    • Its pretty cold. :(
  2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”?

    • Yes I do. I have those times.
  3. How long have you been web-designing?

    • Err, I don’t know. :P Actually its been 3 years I think.

ROFL. Pillow skirts! Ooh, I got one. Curtain pants. hahahahaha.. :P

:O *high five* I’ve got a really strange social studies teacher. We’re studying Latin America at the moment, and some girl was like “Mexicans like soccer.” The teacher began to write that on the board, and another guy said “That’s stereotype.” then the teacher goes on for 20 minutes about how it’s not a direct stereotype. @_@

  1. How is the weather currently?
    Cold and mushy. x3
  2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”?
    HECK YES.
  3. How long have you been web-designing?
    I started fully web-designing in early August, but I’ve been playing with HTML and such long before that. (:

Well I guess that lady was at least creative and…resourceful? for making a pillowcase into a dress. Quite interesting actually. lmao.

D: Good luck with your mid-terms!
Hmm that teacher is quite odd lol. I guess there is always an odd teacher in school ;)

  1. How is the weather currently?
    Warm. Live down under. ;)
  2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”?
    Yep. :( But that may also be caused by laziness. xD
  3. How long have you been web-designing?
    Since I was 12. Funny, because I still suck really badly. lmao.

Haha pillowcase skirts? Wow that woman is creative! I’m glad she knows how to shop now.

I’m glad your midterms were easy and that you got good marks from them. I wish I felt the same way :(.

Of course I have read them…who hasn’t? Losers. XD Just kidding, of course. *cough* :P You should really read them!

Yay! That’s cool because my mom is from Texas and my dad from New York. We are sort of alike. :D

I think we all want our teeth to be perfect! ;) Too bad most of us don’t have them perfect. =/

Hah well I am planning on dropping o1s.net and kisstherain.info. I dislike the names and I can move those to my other domains. :)

Ahaha sometimes when someone steps on my foot and they don’t notice, I just tell them, “hey you’re stepping on my foot”. And then they’re in shock and say “oh! SORRY!” With a look of D: on their face. Hehe.

Ugh, that sucks. I’m sure she still has a load of books to donate though. :)

Oh. It’s so nice that she cares about her daughters but come on, sacrifice is a bit far when you are wearing pillowcases.

Ahaha. It’s hard to spread the desks out because there’s sometimes not enough space. Oh well. XD

Oooh I see. In high school we changed timetables every half year. We had a fortnightly timetable. :)

LOL wooow. That’s slack. Maybe the caption was supposed to give something away, but the most I can tell from a black and white picture is that it’s from times long ago—maybe 1900-1970? LOL. Just an estimate. :P

Wooah, all icy! :O I can’t imagine how that would be like here. D:

Yeah, the lady was almost original, hehe. It is Humiliating. I hope now she learn to buy for herself.

Me too. I want to finish the exams and return my inspiration, I need it.

Awesome…do they have accents? Nothing like a good accent. XD

Arg, I already hate her. Just kidding! I love you friends. :D Actually, that’s kind of weird because I don’t know them. O_o

Thank you! (Again).

LMAO. I won’t because I am working hard; that’s what counts. :D

LOL. Yeah…everyone online gets along no matter what class they are. XD Yet, the class thing isn’t real…it’s just a thought that people have planted in their heads. XD

Hahah. xD That’s good. Because nobody would like to see her in pillow cases again.

Ohh. So its exact like my time. xD But you had like 40 minutes. 40 minutes for a lunch is a lot.

Hahahah! xD She sounds stupid, oh and rude. LOL!

Aww, thank you. The snow is already gone, and its raining. Yay! Hahah. xD I love rain. I’m so excited about spring too. LOL!

YAY! You care, :D

I definately know it won’t be as bad once I move out. I doubt I will visit often though, that’s how they have made me.

YESS, I’ve heard of the iPad..now I know those are really expensive. I don’t think I would like to have one though, I’d be too scared it would break if I even touched it the wrong way.

Same here; I always get messed up, dude. I sometimes think I am little special. XD I am a little blonde at times too…aren’t we all? :D

Pillowcase? Geeze! Talk about fashion crisis! lol. But it’s a cool idea I guess too. In fashion class, my friend was telling me that they use “found” materials to make things. One project was to make clothing out of candy wrappers! Hey, it’s economical for sure!

  1. How is the weather currently?
    — cold. really cold. like coldest all winter!

  2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”?
    — not too much. just tired. I have my inspiration, it’s just I need TIME to work with it. -_-;

  3. How long have you been web-designing?
    — well I started on (free)webs a while back. Like four-ish years ago? But actually “good” web designing? Only for a little over a year. lol.

Haha yep. It doesn’t bother me—I know I will like to get rid of some domains and if I’m able to do that, I’m happy! :)

LOL. My friend does that when she’s pissed. “Do you mind?” *angry face*

My mum likes to take me clothes shopping with her so she can get an opinion. Because I’m her only daughter, haha. She wants to see what I think about clothes looking on her, and stuff like that. :P

Ooh, haha. Some people don’t like reading books outside of school. I do! We had to read Catcher in the Rye for school but I already read it before then, so I felt good about it. :D It seems like a common book to study in high schools nowadays. ^^

Well we need that much time too. We don’t need anymore else. We just grab a snack and eat and talk. Hahah. xD

Oh, well we had this quiz in math the day you posted the comment, and after that the math teacher gave us a paper and we needed to write what we think of her class. LOL! XD

Yeah, its not to cold or hot either. Its perfect and plus my birthday is on the exact day when spring starts. :)

Oh my, lol. Being creative is one thing, but a pillow case skirt? I guess if you hemmed it and all that, it may be cute, but it sounds like she didn’t do it right! Lol.

Ugh, I hated midterm times. Thank god my anxiety wasn’t as bad as it is now, but I think the midterm rules are HORRIBLE. No talking, fine. But during those times, you aren’t even allowed to go to the bathroom and I mean, come on. Once in awhile someones just GOT to go. And it’s not like you can get up and walk out because I’m pretty sure they’ll fail you for it. Just.. horrible. Some things need to be changed for those! Gah, well, hopefully you did good on it though :)

  1. How is the weather currently?
    Too freakin cold! We’re supposed to get a huge snow storm either tonight or tomorrow.

  2. Do you ever feel “inspiration-less”?
    Very often, lol.

  3. How long have you been web-designing?
    Eh, since November 2008? I don’t actually ‘web design’ often. I got out of the loop and stuffs, but I still know all the stuff I learned while trying harder back then :)

Really..I never thought of my blogs being entertaining but it’s just great that you think they are. Thats the kind of stuff that gives me the will to keep blogging.

Lol, yeahh they do look cool. I’d probably sit on it or something to. Mistake it for something else throw it around a bit too so it’s just best that one does NOT come in this house.

Wow, the only school in the whole town..must be a small one. Lord knows how many different schools and districts there are in this darn city. Too many for me to count, I know that much.

Aha, yes they read EVERYTHING. I can’t really help but no nothing but laugh at this point. I most be such an important person. Really can’t do nothing but entertain their ignorance even though that’s a bit childish..I can definately put on a show when it’s actually worth my time :D
