Cubes and School

ive never taken my cube to school and nobody at school knows that i can solve it, i want to take it to school, but i dont like doing it in front of people, i guess i just think i'll get made fun of

nobody would beat me up like the one guy said though ... im top 5 in high school fitness in the nation, not like im a nerd

maybe 5-10 kids know that i can solve it just from talking, but i think the 1 kid actually saw me solve it (at my house)
 
My english teacher is the only one who doesn't let me cube. My history teacher only cares that I pay attention, My math teacher lets me cube in the off-time, and my marketing teacher... is kind of weird.
 
Pretty everyone that knows me now knows that I can solve the cube at school.
I've inspired several people to learn, and several others are interested. While a few of them may have had cubes, I started the entire cube movement amongst several people at school. Only one other person already knew how to solve it!

A part of this also lead to me borrowing a 4x4 to learn how to do it and practice...

My teachers are generally the same... they're interested in the fact that I can solve it, but no cubing during class if there's still work to be done!
 
I often get angry when I even take my super quiet Old A, so I don't distract and I still would do great in class and pay attention, but another student starts telling me to put it away cause they hear a little click and so the teacher knows, etc. My old gym teachers were very interested, my friend knew beginner method when I did so they would time us against each other, I got my first few sub-1s in gym. Now teachers don't really care besides the first little bit of surprise that I can actually solve it, and now they want it away for a reason beyond my comprehension.
 
I used to bring cubes to school.
Then I decided to stop, as it was a bit of a distraction.
Personally, I find school a lot more livable without puzzles. Rather strange.
Oh, and people, don't cube during class. School > Cubing

I'm going to go with school = cubing. I value education but that doesn't mean I like it =D Cubing I love all the way but it's not as useful =) Except for one time in mcdonalds... I solved it and got a discount =D
 
In my Economics/Government class I got my cube taken away then she told me to solve it after class and told me she never wants to see it again in class.

Dang. You're teachers sure are strict on you. Let's go through my classes: Band: well, you can see why the teacher wouldn't really like me cubing......I once got my 2x2 taken away because a friend of mine somehow managed to launch it about 10 feet.
CS: She doesn't take it away or anything, she just has me put it away when we're actually reviewing something (about 0.1% of the class)
Accounting: since it is an elective, she doesn't care
English: My english teacher could care less about what you're doing
Latin: OK, he cares, but for some reason i just never do cube in his class
Tennis: yeah, i can TOTALLY cube then
Chem: my teacher learned how to solve one back in the day... he didn't care
Stat: My stats teacher is almost like my English teacher except we never did ANYTHING in that class
Health: same as english teacher, basically.

My school is not that good so it is WAY too easy to finish top of my class, so cubing>school for me.

Should I be worried, or jealous?
 
After a Spanish test, a friend and I decided to have a cubing race. We got a few seconds in, and our teacher got pretty pissed off because the room was completely silent, and the cubes were loud as hell. It didn't really work out well. I cube in study hall though, nobody minds.
 
I sold a cube to a teacher I knew well. The teacher standing near us was looking at me funny, he obviously didn't approve of that. Maybe our cube club has a bad reputation among teachers, since all members do it in class. In any case, I quickly walked away.
 
Oh yeah, this is sort of random, but at one point, Mc donalds sold rubik's cubes with kids meals, and wow, it was way better than the rubik's brand.
