One day I had great aim and hit the teacher in the cheek. I almost died of embarrassment but never claimed it. Ohhh the babysitters club. I recently reread one of those books and thought, "Really? I was so obsessed with this, I could write something better than this?" It was a bit of a let down.

I don't think I could do this series because I have a VERY bad memory. I can’t believe you remember all this stuff from your past, especially from elementary years!

From everything I've read of yours though, it's kind of hard to imagine you ever not being one of the smart girls. And it's fun to hear about how you managed to cheat; I remember sharing test answers in the same way. I guess it doesn't really weigh on your conscience at that age.

Does he not know that that would tempt ANYONE??? Unbelievable! I can’t get over the fact that your math teacher handed back tests that same day before other kids took them!

Seventh grade? Not so much. I was also really big into reading too. Not so much anymore, though my mother still thinks I read like crazy. Truth is? I've read like 10 books this year. Oh well. I like this series. I have a pretty poor memory so I don't think I'd be able to come up with anything very interesting, but I like reading yours. It's amazing how things that happened when we were young still affects us today. Cheers, Allison Seventh grade is pretty much a blur for me too. Eighth grade was big. Sixth grade was pretty big too.
