“Don’t you hate it when your birthday is on a school day?” YES and y’know what’s WORSE?? I have my birthday on a school day, yes, this is true🙄 BUT my sister has her birthday in the summer, so she gets the special treatment💅 We go on a TRIP for her birthday-we go stay in a cabin with a beautiful, scenic view almost every year for her (along with a party and everything) But me? Nuh-uh I get just a small party with family (which I’m still very grateful for💕) the *NERVE* tho
Love the absolute sass of this comment 👏 hope u get your own log cabin in the mountains with a lively view down to a sandy white beach nd turquoise sea 😆
i have my birthday IN THE MID YEAR EXAMS SO I DON'T EVEN CELEBRATE BECAUSE OF THE EXAM, AND YOU KNOW WHATS WORSE IS THAT I HAVE TO CELEBRATE WITH MY AUUUUUNNNNTTTTTT sorry for screaming.
I could never imagine Kassie as an emo. She looks like and sounds like in her videos like she truly is a happy and nice person I could’ve never thought she could be an emo Edit: I am talking about the style of clothing so please don't go after me. I also was talking about the stereotypical type of emo. I totally understand that they can also be nice.
@@Megan-ws3fr they can be nice, but most of the time they tend to be very dark and quiet people who keep to themselves. I have always imagined and seen Kassie as a peppy and introverted person
@@Creekersqueaker yes but, those traits don’t make someone emo, it tends to be how they dress. I see myself as quiet and have a dark mindset now and then but I don’t class myself as emo, and I hope to think of myself as nice. I think I understand what you’re trying to say, just be careful not to stereotype a style.
At least this year of school we aren't doing the weird hybrid thing where kids with a last name that starts between A and N goes on Monday's and Thursdays and everybody with last names between M and Z went Tuesdays and fridays. Then we zoomed on wednesdays. Anyway I was in the MZ groups and only had 5 people in my class... Then only 3 in my gym class. Safe to say it was not evenly distributed. When we all went back this year it was weird. I didn't have to raise my hand when only 4 other people were in the class.
that never happened to me, but it was pretty bad for my grades I cheated cause we took the test without a meeting it was just google forumed and it was a whole mess, if I could go back and seriously have studied and done all my assignments I would cause now I'm gonna have to go back to regular school in 2 weeks, I have online school right now, and I used to skip meetings, like I once skipped the meetings by joining them and not even being there I was just watching or coloring. i now pay more attention to the teachers but my mind gets distracted here and there, still try my best to keep focus.
the doodling on homework reminded me of when my whole class took a test on their computer and the teacher handed out papers (for notes purposes) and on one of them i drew a face and i wrote “i smell pennies” next to it and my teacher handed me the paper with the “i smell pennies” facing me and i tried so hard not to laugh.
I wore a whole entire pirate outfit for the first day and then wore it again for picture day- And last week I went to school in cosplay- Gotta love the chill dress code.
"dont you hate it when your birthday is on a school day?" i mean i miss the big fancy trip but on the other hand, we have uniforms so whenever anybody comes to school with a color dress everybody just groups around them and says happy birthday and stuff .you get special treatment for the whole day and it feels so great 😭 or maybe its just my class
I cried so much on the first day of school and literally made my mother sit outside my school the entire day. I'm now a highschool (junior) and I still have made my father drop me to school (if it was offline)
Ma'am, you can wear pink fairy wings and frog headbands and lots of people will compliment you. Nobody really "teases" you anymore about what you're wearing. At least in my school.
Kassie : “Yes we can socialise but our grades guys, our grades! I have an Asian mom” Me: Amen Me who always sat at the front but my friends all sat at the back-
@@CustomiZe_ Well when exactly? i've been around here since 2017 as far as i remember but i don't remember like her announcing that? i hope she feels better
@@sebziez I can't exactly remember when it might of been, in a livestream I think because someone asked about if she was ever going to upload on cloudy apples again and she said that she doesn't feel comfortable doing that sort of content like gloom games and cloudy apples again because it makes her anxious and upset as she's moved on from that and if she goes back to it, it will take her back to a dark and foggy place so she wants to stay positive and release this more happier and more mature content. Have a great day !!! 😀 😊 👍
Me 😞.. I miss her so much idk when she is going to come back but I hope it’s soon I miss seeing a new video’s I’ve been watching her videos over and over again I don’t want to pressure her to come back but I am worried about her .. I can go on and on but I am still sad but I understand how she feels 😔
She is going to come back to us but I really can’t wait to see a vid when she comes back she really helped me through the bad days now it’s our turn to help her to do that we have to wait and let her bee until she feels comfortable to tell us what’s happened during the break .. mybe she will come back next year we don’t know yet.. I am more positive that when the vid comes out everyone will have a smile and we are going to hear the “happy day i am gloom” 🥹
I used to think, oh! Fifth grade! My last year at GES, everything will be so nice and exciting! Me now, not being able to see my friends, having horrible teachers, social distancing, feel suicidal and no one caring, YOU KNOW, JUST HAVIN A GREAT TIME!
The one at 2:45 is so true for me because everyone looks so different 😂 and also there are 3 towns starting from 7th grade so there are so many kids I don’t know 😭
2:04 As a homeschooler I have to say that there is a VERY big difference between homeschooling and online school. A lot of people seen confused but I'm going to tell you guys that you have not been homeschooling during COVID-19. You have been doing online school. Unless you were homeschooled before COVID-19 or actually decided to stop going to school, then you are not a homeschooler
😂😂 Our styles DEFINITELY, are coming back. It's SO weird. But I think my mom felt the same way when I started wearing bell bottoms cause of the Spice Girls, 😂😂
I ALWAYS sat in the front row in huge lecture halls in college; could see well, hear well, the teacher is likely to remember you, you weren't crowded by other people, and...extra foot room! In high school there wasn't time to switch books before afternoon classes so I left a satchel in the bag piles by the lockers so I could just switch bags and run
The first one is so relatable. I remember how one time I got a pair of white sneakers and I was like "hmmm these are too clean". So at the bus stop that morning, I literally just rubbed mud all over my shoes. Don't ask why my mom was so freaked out about it but she was. She freaking RAN OUT THE DOOR SCREAMING to come tell me off. You have no idea how hard it was to explain to her that my shoes were too new, and she wasn't taking it.
Fun fact: My first day of school included two new teachers who had no idea who was in there class and we’re trying to put me and my friends in a class we knew we weren’t in. Fifteen minutes later they finally figured it out and me and my friends were laughing so hard while they were figuring it out
