Caffeine pills
ride my mouthful of water
eyes widen
and blood hums
the clock is now
tick tick ticking my name
as if to say
"You are as much a prisoner,
as I am"

Yes..many meetings were spent in a caffeine induced euphoria. My legs vibrated and bounced with the strength of many men. For two hours every thursday I was a god.

Things I did to pass the time.
1. Time how long I could hold my breath.
2. See how many words I could make by rearranging the letters of the yearly text.
3. Count the number of ceiling tiles (also very useful at circuit assemblies).
4. Follow cute brothers into the bathroom (oops, did I say that out loud)
5. Try to guess which section of the audience would get called on for an answer next.
6. Move the microphone slowly away from the person answering so that they would have to lean forward to complete their answer.
7. Determine how many minutes and seconds each paragragh would take to complete.
sigh, those were the days.
hugs

There was a sister in my cong when I was a kid who used to line her boogers up on the arm of the chair. How's that for fun?

LOL@JoelBear That was too funny! I love #3, I remember doing that as well. But my absolute favorite is #6, moving the microphone away so they would have to lean way forward! ROTFLMAO! That's just too hilarious!
Momoftwo, first of welcome! Second of all........eeeeeewwwwwwwwww!

joel, that was funny! :-)
We used to have one sister in our hall that would spit the split ends of her hair for the whole 2 hours of meetings. we also had this one older sister that wore a hat with a LONG feather sticking out of the side of it. I used to get my entertainment by watching whoever sat beside her get poked in the eye with the feather every time she turned her head. It was fun watching them try to keep their cool after that happening over 10 times in a half hour.

ewwwww. I feel bad for the group who had cleaning duties on Friday nights. hey! we didn't have arms on the hard chairs we had to sit in for hours! we had very uncomfortable chairs. Musta been a plan to try and keep you awake during the meetings. although that didn't really help. we had our share of people that would fall asleep and actually start snoring loud during the meeting.
peace,

How about racing to be one of the few that got into the second school during the ministry school! <this novelty wore off after about the age of 12 hehehe> Or trying to crane your neck around nonchalantly to see how much time was left in the meeting <there was always more time left than you wanted there to be> Ah the boring old days!
