13. That's exactly right -- kids use hoods to hide their earphones
We have a ban on electronics in the classroom but kids still try to use them. How much attention are they paying when they're texting their friends? or listening to their nanopods? or playing tetris?

And, as long as we're on the dress code thing...

I am so tired of the boys' pants worn below their butts. I tell them to pull up their pants and two minutes later, I'm looking at their boxers again (not intentionally). And the girls somehow think it's a fashion statement to show their bra straps. Somehow they have the idea that sports bras are okay. I'm mean -- I dress code them all. There are like two of us who do it so it has no effect.

I feel so old.
