Just a fun little things you do that may seem quirky, weird or relatable ;)
I guess I'll start

#JustSchoolThings: Bringing 5 pens to your exam just in case the other 4 run out of ink during the exam.

#JustSchoolThings: Having gum in your palm and pretending to yawn just so you can cover your mouth and eat it without getting caught. (Just me? Ok. ???)

Yeah, you get the gist  :D

This is amateur level excess pens.
I took at least 10 into all my exams :D And only used one in the majority of them :P

Can I add a uni thing? ;)
Turning up to a lecture and not paying one bit of attention, but still being proud of yourself for turning up #justunithings

#JustSchoolThings: Never getting picked when you know the answer and always getting picked when you don't.

#JustSchoolThings having a pencil case that is literally slightly bigger than A4 size because you don't want to run out of pens. :)

For one of my maths SACs I counted the number of pencils I brought into my SAC and I remember having 26 pencils. I literally had plans A to Z pencils for my SAC in case I made a couple blunt, which usually happens. I'm also pretty sure I brought more than 10 pens to my most recent English SAC. Needless to say, in both occasions people were looking at me strangely, since I was carrying them in the front pocket of my blazer. :D

#JustSchoolThings: Procrastinating so much that you don't study for a test and when the teacher hands the paper, you wanna cry and go back in time.
