My school has a policy. No electronics. Do I care? Why should I? I either play it out in the open, or when the situation does not allow, put my bookbag on the floor to the side of me, and play in my bookbag. If the teacher asks, I'm looking for class materials. Its funny how they don't find it suspicious that I'm searching for crap in my bookbag for the enitre class.

i cant stand the look/what people think when they see me as a 24yr old playing 8bit castlevania. (no one knows what castlevania is anyway, or even DS, but they know its game and games are for childS)

I bring my DS everywhere! To the mall, to my friends, to school....anywhere! Usually, I play it during lunch after eating, or during Health, since our teacher just told us to "make sure our boyfriends use a condom" and that was the entire semester rolled up into a day. -__-'

Somehow, the society in my country still considers gaming as something unusual (that's changing with the globalisation, thankfully). While playing games on a mobile phone (which is what I do, though they are really lame) is completely acceptable, gaming while in school is still considered a bit geekish/nerdish/girly/obsessive (though, I've already seen people play - mainly girls). But that's not the main reason - I also don't have much time on my hands while in school.

But I do take it on the school trips.

I always bring my DS to art class, because the teacher doesn't even seem to notice what's going on around him. But now the school's got the wireless internet blocked from anything but a school computer because a couple kids were using their PSPs on the school's internet.

The kind of school that has 6 white guys. I wish I was exaggerating. Everyone is either african, african american, asian, hispanic, or middle eastern. I mean, the minority being the majority thing is pretty cool, no one stands out at my school. But with immigrants comes poor neighborhoods, and with poor neighborhoods comes the ghetto. There's really not a place to go without getting your stuff stolen. I though that every school was like that until 8th grade, when I took a visit to the north side of houston

Back on topic: I bring my DS to school and play it all the time, the teachers never pay attention to the asian kid sitting in the corner

Yeah, my school is exactly the same. Everyone is either hispanic or asian. But it's alright though, asian guys are the cutest ___>

My mom thinks I'm gonna get my DS stolen one of these days. That's why I usually take my boyfriends old DS Phat to school.

My DS can connect to Wi-Fi at school...but I don't bring it.

Why?
1. A chance of getting it stolen.
2. A chance of getting it taken up.

If I do bring it, it stays in my brothers car so I can play it on the short way home.

Nowdays I don't bring it anymore, but I used to bring it to classes and play every moment I could.

I find it weird that a certain teacher would always be annoyed at the fact that I played games while his class, but he didn't care about the noisy people who can't stop chatting and make it difficult to focus on the actual study... Because I still heard him and replied when asked, I didn't use any headphones at class, so it wasn't that I wasn't paying attention to it (used to play Picross and other games that don't require much mind into it, anyways).

Limited people.
Yo, yeah yeah... same here.
