what clubs were you in high school?


i played hockey thankfully. i couldn't really do anything else

Isn't that more of a team than a club? I guess it depends on the school, but it's pretty much all the same.

I wrestled and took part in a movie club - outside of the high school I was attending.

Also, there was the "computer club" where during lunch/after school everyone in one of the PC labs was playing Quake, Counter-Strike or StarCraft.

it gave me an exemption with all the practice time and so on.

I also wrestled, a great sport that teaches a lot.

reply

Especially conditioning!

reply

You played Counter-Strike, but not during the class period? Ah, my class was lucky, mostly when we had subs, most if not all my classmates were playing CS. That being said, not much was learned over the course of the year because our teacher was horrible at teaching, in which we resorted to playing games or creating "motion-stop" videos.

*It was a computer programming class, not much was spent on programming. The class turned me off from wanting to continue the subject in college.

reply

Class time in the computer lab was always monitored. Whenever teachers weren't walking around with everyone's screens in view, they had a faculty computer that could see what everyone was doing on the local network.

CS and other games were played during lunch and the free study period. That's about all you need.

reply

Makes sense.

We would have to re-install the game when we wanted to play. I think the computers auto deleted files and programs not saved to personal student folders. It was a fun time, nonetheless.

reply

you were in the movie club? i never would have guessed 😊😊

reply

I was part of the 237 Club, so named because its members promptly left the building at 2:37 pm when the bell marking the end of last period sounded.

reply

you didn't play football?

reply

I did, but not on a school team and not during my high school years.

reply

The only thing I did that was even close to being in a club in high school was make our graduation video.

reply

did you use a camcorder?

reply

Yes, the school ones.

reply

Like this one time at band camp......

serial killer club?

reply

I don't even remember if we had clubs, and if we did, what they were.

reply

i would think astronomy club for you.

reply

Far out, man

reply

It wasn't a club but some of us used to play chess at lunch time. And we also played chess against students from other schools more formally for a while.

reply

do you still play?

reply

I play the Windows 7 Chess Titans game on my PC at level 5 which is all I can handle these days. My game is rubbish now compared to what it was. I can't see the board and pieces in my mind and visualize the moves ahead the way I used to be able to.

reply

Judo, chess, badminton, athletics. I was never one for team sports.

reply

judo would be cool.
