I found this list online a couple of years ago and laughed and laughed! Even though I am no longer in school... having graduated several years ago... I still can totally relate to some of these! 
...if the only bell that rings at your school is the telephone.
...if you think an "Anglo Saxon" is a math text book.
...if your school planner has a column entitled "chores."
...if your teacher has ever attended school in her pajamas.
...if your kitchen table serves as a lab, supply center, work area, and, occasionally, a place to eat.
...if you have to stop and think when asked, "What grade are you in?"
...if you shop for back-to-school clothes in your older sibling's hand-me-down pile.
...if your class roster sounds like a Biblical genealogy.
...if you have to move dirty laundry off your desk before you can study.
...if your school bus is a nine-passenger van.
...if you consider school work after lunch to be cruel and unusual punishment.
...if your social life is viewed by others to be one rung below that of a Benedictine monk.
...if your father has ever told you to tell the check-out lady at Wal-Mart, "We're on a field trip."
...if your yearbook is also your babybook.
...if your first real date is on your honeymoon.
...if the only bell that rings at your school is the telephone.

This one's my fav. "...if your kitchen table serves as a lab, supply center, work area, and, occasionally, a place to eat." I'm the person who has to clean it all up for dinner!!!!!!

That's hilarious! And I can totally relate to most every one of those. Except, I actually do quite a bit of school after lunch...hmm...
I love the one about "Anglo Saxon" being a math text book. :-)

"...if your class roster sounds like a Biblical genealogy." uh, hmm. Who are these homeschoolers anyway? That line was funny. I can't say that I personally identify with it because all four of us have names that are not common at all for first names, at least here in the states, but I did know a few Simeons and Davids and etceterras when I was a kid.
Sorry Jak, I tried to figure out how to post a pic with my comment but you'll have to walk me through that later
I resemble that last one... and am humbly proud of it! :)
Actually I resembled most of them back in the day.
what, you mean i read this a month ago and didn't comment?! i know i checked off at least a few of these...
what fun! i laughed - i cried - or should i say, i laughed almost till i cried - or maybe i should just leave it at 'i laughed.' i did do that.
